Edward Reirsgord of Virginia
Will Photograph Spots at
Nett Lake.

Edward Reirsgord, night clerk at
the Ormonde hotel leaves tomorrow on
a vacation trip which will be spent in
a novel manner at the Nett Lake
reservation. Reirsgord, who is a
skilled photographer takes with him
a high grade field camera and will
spend week or more among the In
dians taking pictures of the chiefs
and their families and gathering data
on the history of the Nett lake coun-
try, and the legends of its Indians of
general interest. He will also get
photographs of the famous writing
rocks at Nett Lake, bearing hero
glyphics cut in stone said to have been
made centuries ago. The hieroglyph-
les are supposed to commemorate
some event of Importance in the his
tory of the abort gines. The present
Nett Lake Indians disclaim any know
ledge of their origin and according
to their legends handed down for sew
eral generations they were placed on
the rocks long before the present
Chippewas came to that country.
Agent Regan meets Mr.. Reirsgord at
Orr tomorrow and will personally es-
cort him over the reservation. He
hopes to return to Virginia with some
of the finest Indian pictues that have
ever been taken in the north woods
of Minnesota.

LIVED HERE
BEFORE FIRE
Former Virginian Returns After
Years and Is Surprised at
the Old Town.

Charles Hultquist former Virginian,
can sympathize with Mr.. Washing
ton Irving's fine old gentleman, Rip
Van Wrinkle, who in the Catskill noun
tains slept for 20 years. He returned
to Virginia yesterday for the first
time in almost that long and he says
he knows just how Rip felt when he
blew into the old home town in the
Hudson river valley ever so long ago.
In 1898 Mr.. Hultquist was engaged
in business in Virginia with John
Quinn. They conducted a store in a
frame building on the site of the pre-
sent. American Exchange bank build
ing and the store and stock were COM
pletely destroyed in the first fire.. Mr..
Hultquist left Virginia at that time
and went east. He is now located in
Chicago and is the representative of
a Chicago wholesale dry goods concern
"The Virginia of today is the finest
city of it's size have recently visit
ed," said Mr.. Hultquist and the best
little city on the Mesaba range. 1t has
all the earmarks of prosperous town
and doesn't look like the woods town
of 1893. l am glad to note the years
have brought prosperity to most of
the old-timers and have often regret
ted that l did not remain here with
them" Mr.. Hultquist will make this
territory regularly hereafter.

Two big centrifugal pumps are busily

completed within a short time. The
water is being pumped into aaditch
recently completed which conveys it
to Kelly lake. The level of the lake
has already been lowered eight feet.
Carson lake was formerly one of
the range beauty spots, filled with
fish, had a pretty shore line and on
it's shores stood one of the finest saw
mills in the range country. Mining
operations however made it necessary

the stripping dumps have been en-
croaching on it until it's area was con-
siberably reduced. The pumping out
of the water reveals the fact, that
there are still good many fish in it
and pickerel weighing over eight
pounds was found floundering in one
of the shallow holes yesterday.
The lake site will be utilized as a
stripping dump site by the Oliver
Iron Mining company. The bed of
the lake is said to be underlaid with a
valuable deposit of iron ore.
