BY far the largest shipment of crepe
and other black goods suitable for mourn
ing ever made in this country, and prob
ably in the world, was made on Tuesday
night, when a Passaic IN. ]. firm sent

first-class trains and with schedule SINH

ment is to relieve the dearth OF such
goods complained OF in Chicago, where
the local demand and the calls from
other places have tesn sent the mourn
ing goods up where they cannot be had
tor any money. All the mills in Passaic
and vicinity capable of making these
goods are running night and day, and
New York is taking the bulk OF the out
put. The operatives work just as long
as they can. Many have been working

is what tones the nerves, perfects diges-
ton, creates appetite, and makes sleep

Do you wish the world were wiser?

Thinking it might be of inter
est to the readers of the SIRIUS
to know the real progress of the
schools of Bemidji, l have un-
dertaken the task of giving a
short history of the school from
the first organization of the dis
trict up to the present time. The
brief period of our story natur-
ally divides itself into three
epochs; the first of which covers
the time from the first organiza-
ton to the sub dividing of the
district into three, in June, 1896.
It was sometime after the first
of January, 1895, that the whole
township of Bemidji was organ
lied into common school dis
trict. The first school meeting
was held in Carson Bros. store,
a log building about 80 rods be-
yond the bridge crossing the
Mississippi, between lakes IT.
vine and Bemidji. In this build
ing, now the house of G. o. Glid-
den, the following officers, GIN.
Carson, director, r. H. Carr,
treasurer, and NJ. E. Carson,
clerk, were elected to serve till
the annual election the following
July. After the election of the
board, the next thing to be done
was to select favorable location
on which to buildIa schoolhouse.
The site selected is about one
fourth mile southeast of where
the B. & N. Ry. roundhouse now
stands. 1t was one fine March
morning that the following
men, Ed Trask, D. W. Stew
ems, Al Godbout, D. Stillman, r.
H. Carr, Harry Bachley, Ole Null
igan, Knute Halverson, Porter
Nye, Willis Nye and Carson
brothers, were gathered at this
spot for the purpose of donating
their strength and physical en-
durance in the rolling up of a log
structure about Is x 20 and eight
feet high.
When this much had been done
toward a schoolhouse, D. W. Stew
ems took the job of putting on the
roof and adding such other fin
ishing touches as would render
the building fit for holding school
April 5th.
Early this bright Monday
morning we might have seen Mr..
Porter Nye with an armful of
books and a crowd of children
coming along a newly-cut trail
in the direction of the school
house. It was not long after the
teacher and pupils had reached
the building till the ringing of
the bell announced that it was
time for school to begin. This
day began term Of four months
school, which Mr.. Nye finished,
except about three weeks taught
by Miss Eva Colby, one of the
first teachers in this section.
The following children were
enrolled during the term: May
mona Nye, Evan Carson, Gala
Trask, Inez, Henry and Georgi-
ana Nye, Vernon and Victor
Carr, Westly, May, Edith
and Eddie Walden and Henry
WoIcot, in all II pupils for the
term. At the annual school meet
ing held in July, nine months Of
school was voted and the follow
inc officers were elected: G.. M.
Carson, treasurer: John Steidl,
director, and FL Carson, clerk.
The latter resigned, whereupon
ES- Kincannon was appointed.
