Excursion
More Than Fifteen Hundred Pe0-
pie Visited Bemidji Last
Sunday.

The excursionists from ST.
Cloud and intermediate points,
which arrived here last Sunday
over the Great Northern road in
two sections of u coaches each.
was the largest that ever visited
Bemidji in a single day.
The first section arrived at
1920, and the second at 1855,
each contingent having been met
at the depot by the Bemidji band
and large crowd of citizens and
escorted to the lake front where
they were dismissed and given
the entire freedom of the city.
The great crowd of over 1, 500
strangers turned at once to the
hotels and restaurants for din
ner, after which they enjoyed
excursions on the lake, and for
the first time in the history of
the city there was demand for
boats that exceeded the supply.
The most notable feature of
the day was the game Of base
ball between The st. Cloud and
Cass Lake clubs, which was won
by the latter by score Of s to 2.
During two or three innings the
St. Cloud boys were snuffed out
with the bases full, which was
the worst of bad luck. There
were no threats of killing the UNI
pire during the game, and the
vast crowd of more than 5000
people who witnessed the game
enjoyed it to the fullest.
After the ball game the huge
crowd, like tidal wave, meand-
cred about the city, and many
were the praises they expressed
regarding the general appear
ance and cleanliness of Bemidii,
and many were heard to remark:
ooh, isn't this the prettiest lake
and incest trees you ever saw"
The answer invariably would be:
swell, | should say so; wish I
could live here forever!!''
There were many prominent
people on the excursion, and
many were the promises that
they would come again at some
lime during the season and re-
main for a longer period.
A goodly number of the visitors
we're out after the fnny tribe,
some very fine strings having
been taken.
The trains left at 7:30 and s
o'clock respectively, and as they
pulled out the happy crowd gave
hree rousing cheers for Bemidii,
which were responded to by
.lmost the entire populace. who
we're at the trains to bid their
isitors good bye.

ADVERTISE THIS VALLEY
How Visitors In the East and North
 May Do Good Work.

Within the next two months, and, in fact. all summer Phoenix people will vacation and business trips. There IS probably no state or territory in the union about which so little is known and about which 80 many people are curious to learn in the east as Arizona. From the time they get out of this ter ritory until they return the sojourning Phoenicans. will be piled with ques- tions about Arizona.
 The board of trade has a neat little pamphlet, entitled "The Salt River Val ley; Its Attractions for the Capitalist, the Invalid and the Immigrant" The
Arizona republican., 1901-05-01

board has several thousand of these folders, and every person who goes from the city should obtain a few copies to take with him. The pamphlet gives, in a nutshell, SO to speak, all sorts of information of this valley and of Phoenix, and includes an excellent map of the county. If every gentleman and lady who leaves Phoenix would take a few copies the result would be that much valuable advertising of the great resources of this vicinity would be scattered all over the land.

ART NEEDLE WORK SOLD
Mrs. Hearst Encourages the Girls of
 the Phoenix Indian School.

Mention has been made at different times in The Republican, of the eX- hibit of the Phoenix Indian school to be made at the Pan-American exposi- tion. Among other articles was a quantity of art needle work, made by the Indian girls. which was shipped to the office of Indian affairs at Wash ington. to be forwarded from there to Buffalo The work is something for all concerned to be proud of. and es- pecially the little girls who labored so hard and so earnestly. The following letter, which Is self-explanatory. tells why some of the best pieces will never be placed on exhibition. though the lit- tie workers will probably feel moro than ever complimented.
 S. NJ. McCowan,
 Supt. Indian Industrial School.
 Phoenix. Ariz.
 Sir: While the lace and embroidery from Phoenix were in this office await ing shipment to Buffalo they found many admirers. Among them was a friend of Mrs. Phoebe A. Hearst, and she suggested that Mrs. Hearst might like to purchase some of the pieces. The office decided that as room for the exhibit was somewhat limited and as purchasers of such elaborate articles would probably not be easily found. it would be better to dispose of the articles. if opportunity offered. than to send them to Buffalo. Mrs Hearst was therefore given the opportunity to purchase them at the prices named and she took four, as follows:

 trust that the girls will be so grat- flied with the sale that they will not be disappointed that their fine work is not to be displayed at Buffalo. Mrs Hearst is about to leave town for a prolonged absence and this opportun- ity to dispose of the work could not be postponed. l trust that the school will be as much pleased as is the office by this substantial recognition of the beauty and value of the art needle
