WHEl IS our GAS c0nPANY?!|
TIME FOR FILING PLAT OF WORK
HAS EXPIRED. NO WORD
FROM COMPANY

The people of Little Falls are won
daring what has become Of the Little
Falls Darling Gas company, and its
dant, over which the promoter, z: J.
Suit Of Milwaukee, made such fuss
some months ago when he claimed that
the city council delayed longer than
was necessary before granting the
company franchise.
On Wednesday the time for fling a
plat OF the work expired, and the
company must now pay the city $25
per day as damages for 20 days for
failure to file such plat.
The city officials have heard moth
ing from the company, in regard to
the filing Of the plat, nor asking for an
extensions Of time, and this is taken to
staH a plant here. The last time the
gas company was heard from was
about two months ago, when they
stated that they had been delayed on
account Of the failure to secure imam
eial backing when nine banks in Chi
cago known as the Lorimer banks,
failed. They stated, however, that
they expected to start work on the in
stallation Of the plant within the
specified time limit.
The city has ten days from July 20
to notify the bonding company, and
the city clerk has written Mr.. Suit a
letter stating that the bonding com.
pany will be notified, and informing
him that the city council meets in
regular session next Monday evening.

CAN GET GUN CLUB aRoUNDs

CAN GET GUN CLUB GROUNDS
Little Falls .sportsmen have the
chance Of securing one of the finest To-
cations for a gun club house and
grounds in this vicinity if they are
willing to sacrifice a little. time and
money for it. s.
The Morrison County Cooperative
Agricultural society offers the gun
club the free use Of the fair grounds
in the southeast part Of the city, in
Guiding space for building, if they
will erect q club house there.
All the neighboring cities including
St. Cloud, Brainerd, Frazee, and Benz
idji,. have large roomy club houses,
where ammunition can be kept at all
times. The club house affords a place
to keep ones wraps when attending a
shoot and affords a place Of refuge in
case of rain. Here, if it starts to
rain when the club is holding shoot,
the members must seek some other
place of shelter.
There has been some talk of build
ing sort Of club house near Rice
lake, but this would not be feasible, as
the cost Of erecting building there
would be too great.

BODY OF NAN FOUND N RIVER !
WAS THAT OF ADAM DUERR.
BLACKSMITH SUICIDE Is
THEORY

Friday noon the body of 4-dam
Duerr, blacksmith, was found in the
Mississippi river, below the dam. It
is thought that he committed suicidc
by jumping into the river, as he had
told several people that he intended to
do away with himself in that manner,
although he may have fallen into the
water while intoxicated.
One Of the employees on the dam
saw the body shoot through the waste
gates shortly before 1 O'Clock. The
body floated into shallow water some
distance. below the. dam, where IL
stopped. Tt was taken out and ex-
was taken to the Simonet undertaking
parlors.
Mr.. Duerr had been employed as a
blacksmith on the new dam, which is
under the course Of construction now.
At the time Of the extremely hlgn
water no work could be done and
Duerr, with number Of other men,
was laid off. He became desponGenr
and took to drinking heavily. Later
he appeared and asked for work as a
blacksmith, but was refused. Deceased
worked few days on road work near
the city.
He was seen on the streets Of the
city earlier in the week by the chief
Of police, who told him to move on. He
said that he felt like killing himself.
Deceased was A years Of age. He
was born in Germany. He has a
brother living at Cleveland, o., and a
sister at Buffalo, N. Y. The brother
was notified Of his death and asked as
to what disposition should be made Of
the remains, but no answer was re.
ceived. The remains were therefore
inferred at Oakland cemetery Friday
evening. A. Simonet received a letter
from Julius Duerr. of Cleveland, Mon
day, asking for information ABOUT the
death of his brother and requesting
that the bills for funeral expenses be
sent to him.
