The store is most interesting right now


The store is most interesting right now.
The days are at hand when the women must
wear light clothes or suffer. The thrifty
women are getting an amazing amount of
comfort out of looking over the racks and
finding a frock or suit or coat for less money
&han she expected to spend, thus the second
floor salons is the place of much business for
both buyer and seller.
The Millinery Store is busily engaged in
their sales of untrimmed shapes as result Of
a wOnderful purchase recently.
The women are stepping into low shoes
now; they will see the change almost instant
ly among the people on Main street and ev-
erywhere.
All over the store there is activity and you
can be sure that this store will never go
back oa itself or it's customers.

THE CARS
 ] BIRT RTHDAY

The Czar Of Russia. Nicholas IT., comnander-in-ch chief of the Russian arr mics in this war. was born May IS, 1868, New Style, but as the difference between the new and old style caIen- dars is now thirtten days instead of twelve, his birthday will not be cele- Ira ed by his subjects until to morrow Since taking over the active command of the military forces the Czar has ex- ercised much greater influence than he did earlier in the war when Grand Duke Nicholas was the despotic dicta- tor of the army, but even now he nev- CT takes any action without consult ing his staff of military advisers. AL though Car Nicholas is popuIarIy sup posed to possess greater autocratic powers than any other ruler of a great power, in reality he is much less dictatorial than either the German or Austrian emperors. From his youth the Russian Emperor has been op- posed to war, and in 1898 he issued a call to all nations to meet in a con- gress and discuss plans for the limita- tion of armaments and the lifting of the heavy burden of ml1tarism which weighed over Europe. Out of com plement to Emperor Nicholas the peace congress was opened at The Hague on his birthday, May IS, 1899 and the Tribunal of Arbitration in the Dutch capital was the result of the meeting. The Russian Emperor is of a decidedly religious and mystical turn of mind, and has often been swayed by religious leaders who claimed super natural powers. The war has result ed in a great increase in his popular ity among his subjects, and, whereas he was formerly in constant dread of assassination, he now often goes about without attendants. Wherever he goes he is greeted with cheers and wild enthusiasm, and his forty-egihth birth day will doubtless be marked by many demonstrations of the love which the Russians now entertain for their Lit tie White Father"

Part of Red Lake Indian Reservation
For Settlers.
Warren, Mimi. Jan. l0.-Eight thou
sand acres of Minnesota land. a part OF
the Red Lake Indian reservation,
known as Mud Lake bottom, will be
thrown open 10 entry and settlement
early next spring, according to an an
nouncement by local agents today,
based on information received from the
general land office in Washington.
Twice before the interior department
has made arrangements to open this
land, which is located in the eastern
part of Marshall county, but certain
complications arose and delays ensued.
Mud Lake bottom was not an agri-
cultural section, but body of water
known in Minnesota as good fishing
and hunting territory until draining
operations carried off the water. Lands
along the banks had been patented to
various riparian owners
After the draining, squatters APP
peared on the choice portions and as a
result disputes arose between the
riparian owners and the ntruderS as To
legal title. Litigation along this line Is
expected after the spring opening.
The money obtained by the govern
ment from the opening will go to the
Indian fund, it was stated.
