E. A. Barker Goes to Twin Cities for
Holiday Goods.

E. A. Barker, the local jeweler and
druggist, has gone to the twin cities,
where he will spend several days
looking over the wholesale houses,
before purchasing his stock of
Christmas goods and new lines of
jewelry and drugs for his regular
trade. ....s. r
The Barker Drug Store has always
carried a thoroughly up-to-date stock
of holiday goods-the very best
that the market affords and Mr..
Barker desired to be on the ground
and personally inspect the stocks
which are being displayed down at
St. Paul and Minneapolis. s
It is the intention of Mr.. Barker
to again carry a full line of the new
designs in jewelry, cut glass, ect.,
as we'll as precious stones and fancy
articles, and the stock will begin to
arrive in few days and augment
the fine selection of goods which are
already carried.

Committed to the Asylum.

Mrs. O. B. Olson, wife of
prominent merchant at Kelliher,
was yesterday afternoon adjudged
insane aud committed to the
hospital at Fergus Falls.
Mrs. Olson has been an inmate of
the Fergus Falls hospital on former
occasion and it is a matter of doubt
if she was ever really cured, after
being released on parole and finally
discharged. She was committed
from this county on August 10, 1908,
and at that time she was so violent
that it was necessary to bind her
to cot and the insanity board was
compelled to hold the examination
of the patient at the local hospital
Mrs. Olson was confined to the
hospital until December %, 1908,
when she was released on, parole
and taken to her home at Kelliher.
On July II of this year Mrs.
Olson was discharged as cured and
her condition was very good until
about week ago, when she began
exhibiting signs that her mind was
deranged and she was very violent
in some of her actions.
Mrs. Olson's condition became so
alarming that she was brought to
Bemidji yesterday and the insanity
board, consisting of Drs. Henderson
and Ward and Judge of Probate
Clark, gave her hearing with the
result that she was adjudged insane
and ordered taken to Fergus Falls.
Deputy Sheriff Andrew Johnson
and Mrs. A. B. Hazen, wife of
Sheriff Hazen, took Mrs. Olson to
Fergus Falls this afternoon.

Shortage of Logs at the Mills.

The sawmill plants of the Crook
ston Lumber company and the Be-
midi Lumber company have been
running on about halliday time, of
late, because of the inability to get
logs to the mill over the different
railroads, more especially the M. &. I.
Both companies have logs up
north" but it seems next to i'm
possible to have the timber hauled
to Bemidji to be sawed, because of
the heavy traffic on the M. & l.,
and probably both mills will shut
down in a very few days, whether
weather conditions interfere or not.
