10 ON THE STAGE
Company of Indian Players Will
be Got Together by Mr..
Livingston.

Edward Livingstone, of Omaha,
Nebraska, was In the city last
night on business. Mr.. Living
stone is an old theatrical man
and one of the most successful
in the business. To use his own
expression he has sTommed :"
and Hheayied" to S. r. O. in
every town between the Golden
Gate of California to the Rock
Bound Shores of New England.
For the past several years Mr..
Livingstone has noted the re-
markable success wild west
shows have attained and he has a
new idea. He proposes to get a
band of Indians together to do
the eastern vaudeville houses.
Mr.. Livingstone is sure their
dances would make a hit in vaud-
eville. His business frequently
brings him to this section and he
announces that this winter he
will make an effort to get a num-
Der Of Chippewas to take the
road early in the spring to play
in vaudeville and on the summer
resort stages during the sum
mer.

In Jail Again.

John Wilson, who says that he
is about all there is in sight of
the East Grand Forks gambling
fraternity since the late moral
upheaval over at that place, and
who was released from Jail last
Thursday after serving a sen
tence for the theft of some poul-
try short time ago, was round
ed up again Tuesday in Crook
ston on general principles and
spent Wednesday in cold storage
at the city bastile. General
cussedness seems to be the real
offense, and Chief Dreamer and
his men will see to it that he puts
a blizzard between himself and
Crookston when he is liberated.

BACKWOODS

A Dead" Giye.Away.
By A. M. GREELEY

"A UedO UlFe-hNdy.
Tony was mangled by a falling
tree in the woods and his old
"pal'' Jimmie accompanied him
to the hospital. Tony could not
survive the operation, the doctors
told him.
"Billie, +" he said to bis sorrow
full friend, "I'm a gonerthis trip.
The stuff is off. I've got to hike
to the head camp mighty soonly.
Now, I don't want to be laid out
like common stiff in the pauper
dump ground. Take this time
check for $50 and bury medecent.
I've got good folks back East and
I want to be planted right. p"
Sadly Billie took the check,
sadly he cashed it and more
sadly still he spent the cash for
red liquor. While his friend was
dying, under a sidewalk a few
blocks away Billie lay dead
drunk.
It is folly to dwell on his re-
pentance in the morning. But
repentant he was and determined
to recover his lost cause.
MADAM" he said to the we'll
dressed lady who answered his
rap at the door, lido you remem-
Der Jimmie Burch?"
"Why, certainly. He is a
nephew Of mine. y
'sNo, he amt. He's dead, and
fore he funked he asked me to
tell you, 50 you could fix up the
graveyard bloW-ou
Her grief was softened by
doubt as she gazed upon the face
of the dead. 1t bore little re-
sem blance to that of Jimmie's
face as it looked in the faded
album of her memory.
But Billie's eloquence pre-
vailed. Satified that the corpse
once happy James, she was
turning away when the cold jaw
relaxed aud the mouth opened.
cit amt him. Its not James.
Jimmie had false teeth!'
She was gone and with her
went hope to poor Billie. He
looked at the gaping face of his
dead partner the wreck of
many storms and cried out re-.
proachfully:
ssItis all your fault. I tried to
fix you out right, Tony, and |
would have done it if you would
have kept your blamed mouth
shut!!''

proxy except Hawaii. The time and
place Of the meeting of the National

District Court in Session and Big
Calendar Is Being Gone
Through Rapidly.

Editor H. r. Cobb, Of the Park
Rapids Enterprise and Grand
Rapids Magnet, was in the city
last night on his way from Grand
Rapids to Park Rapids and
stopped-at the Pioneer Office last
night long enough to make his
usual CHEEKY visit.
Speaking of the fact that rumor
has been current for some time
that the Grand Rapids pulp mill
might be moved from that city to
Bemidji, with the development of
the Schroeder water power, Mr..
Cobb says the matter only makes
them smile at Grand Rapids and
no one down that way is visibly
worried about it just yet. Mr..
Cobb says the Bemidji water
power has been Investigated by
some Grand Rapids people and
while it is found to be prolific OF
possibilities Mr.. Cobb says that
he would still call our attention
to the fact they have water
power at Grand Rapids that is
one of the finest in the country.
A session of the district court
is at present on at Grand Rapids.
The Coddington murder trial
was called yesterday afternoon
and will be the order of business

years of age and public sentiment
in the matter of his guilt or inno-

The term is expected to conclude
some time before the holidays.
