called the people together and
began to talk the matter up in

Sudden Death.

It is the painful duty of the PIONEER
this week to chronicle the sad and un-
timely death of MISS Edith Schroeder,
the bright and popular daughter Of
Mr.. and Mrs. VIM. Schroeder of this
place. That Miss Edith, apparently
in the prime of life, attended school
last Monday week, and on Tuesday
was placed beneath the sod, reminds
us again OF the uncertainty of time
and the reality of eternity.
The cause of death was cancer of
the bowels. She seems to have suffered
with this malady but a little. 1t was
deemed advisable in order to lengthen
her days to have the cancer removed,
and it was to accomplish this end that
she was sent to Minneapolis hos
pital last week. The ravages of the
operation under an8sthetics was more
than she could subdue, and right there
death called it's victim.
The remains were brought home
Monday, and the funeral took place
Tuesday at Mr.. Shows residence on
Bemidii avenue, with Rev, Bailey of
the Bartist church officiating. The
remains were inferred in the Greenwood
cemetery.
Miss Edith Schroeder was about 16
years of age. She was bright and
intelligent school girl and favorite
among her classmates. She leaves
parents and a large number of broth
ers and sisters to mourn her loss.

which is to occur on Lake Be-
memidji, and will well be worth
the while coming hundreds of
miles to witness.
The location is ideal. On the
north, three-fourths of a mile off,
is Diamond Point, behind which,
and out of sight from the bluff on
the east side of the city, will lay
the Lower Mississippi squadron
of 100 boats under command of
Commodore McLachlan, and on
the south, an equal distance, on
Lake Irwin, also out of sight from
the aforesaid bluff, will be moored
the Upper Mississippi squadron,
of an equal number of boats, un-
der Commodore Reynolds, the
whole under command of Admi-
raj Palmer, whose excellent plans
of the maneuvers and battle were
unanimously adopted by the gen
eral committee of arrangements.
One half-mile out in the lake,
directly opposite the. center of
the high bluff overlooking every
foot of the area to be covered by
the maneuvers of the naval en-
gagement, will be erected large
fort, which is to be attacked and
reduced by the squadrons. The
grand climax will be the utter
destruction of the fort by shot,
shell and torpedos, the time to
require one hour and thirty min
utes. The unusual novelty of the
whole affair is the fact that not a
single preparation for the engage
ment will be seen by the visitors
until the Eight is on" which will
e
begin promptly at 9 o'clock p. m.
Over 5000 rounds of ammunition
will be used, and every boat, large
and small, will be illuminated
with torches. The maneuvers
will be practiced until everything
will move like clock work.
The grand parade in the fore
noon by the civic societies and
citizens in general, accompanied
1by bands Of music, will be an att
tractive display, while the speak
ing and all else are to be of the
finest and best.
Thus Bemidji proposes to prove
that her hospitality and willing
ness to entertain strangers did
not wane during the long witer,
and that her people are as warm
hearted as ever. Take a day off
and come and see US.
