Sues for Note

The First National Bank of this

H. Thornton, former well known
member of the Duluth board of
trade, on a promisory note made
by Thornton in July last for
81 ,637.35 and which was due in
IS days.
The original note, the complaint
states, was for 81, 100, but that
amount was cut down to $1,000 by
the disposition of 40 shares of the
United Grain company's stock
which was given the bank by Mr..
Thornton as collateral.
The note matured last Sept. 10,
and the directors ofthe bank aver
in their pleadings that Mr.. Thorn
ton has not settled for the difference
which is due them.

Thinks Mine a Joke

A Duluth mining man says that
all this talk of ore under Embarras

does not believe there is any COM

the ore limits are north of the lake
and extend east and west. The
state looks at it in an entirely
different light however.
