Spooner, judge of the Fifteenth
Judicial district, presiding,
The grand jury was called and
charged, after which the preliminary
call of the calendar was taken up
and disposed of.
The matter of hearing petitions
for naturalization papers was the
next taken up, and twenty of such
petitions were granted.
Up to date the grand jury has
rendered three indictments, as fol-
lows:
Against Peter D'Aupon, charged
with grand larceny in the second
degree.
Against Frank Jones, charged
with grand larceny in the second
degree.
Against Charles Webster, charged
with falsely impersonating a public
officer.
Each of the defendants in the
above-named indictments were ar
arranged and entered pleas of not
gnilty.
The first civil case on the calen-
der which was taken up was that of
George t. Robinson, mayor of Big
Falls, against ]. E. Everton & Son
of Deer River. This was an action
to recover on promissory note,
and the defendants set up two notes
in their favor as counter claims.
The jury in that case retired Thurs
day noon, and Friday morning
came in, returning a vertict for the
defendants in the sum of $4,000.
The next jury case on the calen-
dar was that of J. Emerson Green

being an action to recover for
cedar poles alleged to have been
converted by the defendant. Before

the action was dismissed on account
Of the absence Of witness, whose
testimony was deemed necessary in
order to proceed with the trial.
The case of Henry Toibit against
John Main was ontrial yesterday.
This is an action on a promissory
note, and the defendant claims in.

HOTEL BURROUGHS NOW
OPEN TO The PUBLIC
Five O'clock Dinner at New Hosiery
New Hotel Is Modern, in
Every Respect.

The Hotel Burroughs, the elegant
new hostelry located in the Thome
& Mayer brick block, corner Mime
sofa avenue and Second street, was
formally opened to the public
this evening, with an elaborate
dinner which will be served to the
public until 10 o'clock
Professor Thomas Symington's
Bemidji orchestra will furnish music
all the evening, and there will be
every attention given to those who
attend the opening, which is open
to the public.
H. P. Burroughs, who has con-
Quoted the City Restaurant in this
| city for the last three years, is pro-
prietor of the new hotel, and he has
spared no pains or expense to make
the Burroughs Hotel second to
none in this part of the state.
The Hotel Burroughs will be run
on the Europeon plan, with all the
accessories necessary for conducting
a thoroughly up-to-date establish.
ment.
The hotel occupies the greater
portion of the Thome & Mayer

is located on Second street, the
corner of the building being used
by Thome & Mayer for a refresh
ment parlor. The office is large and
commodious and fully equipped
for the convenience of the guests.

dining room, and lunch room and
kitchen. In the basement is located
the laundry and two large sample
rooms. On the second and third
floors are the sleeping rooms, nearly

sum of money in furnishing the
hotel as first class hostelry, and he
has also engaged the very best help
to assist him in conducting the
hotel.
Amos Ward of Minneapolis has
been engaged as the head chef of
the hotel. He came here highly
recommended as cook.
Miss Smith of Minneapolis will
act as head waitress and have charge

Will Probably Not Rebuild.

Hibbing, Dec. 6.-The citizens of
Hibbing are much concerned over
the possibility that the Miles hotel,
burned to the ground last Friday,
will not be rebuilt. Mr.. Miles has
not definitely determined that he
will not rebuild, but he has placed
the lots on the market, and if he can
dispose of them he will close out all
of his interests in Hibbing. There
are five lots in the block and the
price asked is $4,000. The corner
is the most prominent in town and
if the hotel is not rebuilt the city
will suffer severely in appearance.
Mr.. Miles, in any event, will do
nothing about rebuilding until spring.
If he has not disposed of the
property by that time, his present
intention is to erect 125-room,
modern freproof hotel.

In the case of James Labry, a
young man of eighteen years who
was convicted last Saturday at
New Roads for the murder of Geo.
Bouis, also a young man; one OF
the witnesses, a woman said in an
swer to a question of one of the
attorneys" 1 am on good terms
with the young man, but l have
no friendly feelings for his father
who killed my husband.
The lawyer replied "but he was
tried and acquitted"
The woman replied ".yes, but
if he had been convicted for the
crime his son might not have beer
in the trouble he is now."
We believe there is a great deal
in the remarks of this woman al
though the killing referred tt
might have been justifiable, ant
the verdict of the jury who ac
Quilted him a just one.
Young Labry who has the bes
family connections in the Psrisl
of Pointe Coupee, was defended
by the ablest lawyers of that sec
ton of the State, but it was clear.
ly proven that he shot his victim
who was unarmed five times with
out provocation, and We presum
that the liniehcy of the jury in re
porting a qualified verdict, on
that will send the slayer to th
Penitentiary for his life instead O
the gallows, was due mainly to tn
tender age of the murderer. Sucl
tragedies are much to be regret
