BIa mes Knutson.

Miss Anna Anderson, who was
announced as having been mar
ried to VIM. Nelson at Nymore
last Tuesday, desires the Daily
Pioneer to state that the blame
for the erroneous statement lies
with Fred Knutson who, think
ing he was playing a joke, brought
the wedding announcement into
the Daily Pioneer Office. The
notice was, of course, published,
for we had no reason to believe
that it was not reliable. 1t ap-
pears that there was no wedding
at all. and that Miss Anderson
had never even been engaged to
the man in question. The man
who will adopt such coarse meth
DDS to embarrass a girl shows
himself to be of a very small and
mean cali Der.

THE LAND OFFICE.
HEARING
1t Will Be Held This
Month---Perhaps
Next Week.
STEENERSOM is ASKED TO
HURRY THE AFFAIR.
Crawford SAYS Sooner 1t Comes
Off Better People Will
Be Satisfied.

Lawyer Crawford today re-
ceiyed copy of the following
telegram sent by Land Commits
sioner Richards to Congressman
Halvor Steenerson:
"Please suggest a date that
will suit you for the hearing re
lative to the Cass land office. =
Nh. Steenerson wished to know
which date would best suit the
Bemidji people and Mr.. Craw-
ford answered that the sooner
the hearing was held the better
Bemldji would be satisfied.
Speaking Of the matter today
Mr.. Crawford said:
eve are now ready for hear
ing at any time. Our side of the
case is prepared for argument
and the sooner the affair is set
tied the better everyone con
Icerned will be satiatied. There
is nothing to be gained by wait
ing, and / am sure that with the
showing we can make the final
decision will be in our favor.
The matter will probably come
up either next week or the week
after. It will surely be heard
sometime this month in any
event. Mr.. Steenerson will Of
course be present at the hearing
and there will also be a small
delegation of citizens on hand.
Bemidji is SO clearly the logical
point for the location of the land
office that there can be little
doubt concerning the outcome of
the hearing"

Petition to Put S.Foot Board
Fence Around the
City Park
AND ADORN 1T WITH HIGH.ART
SOAP ADVERTISEMENTS.
People Could Then Feast Eyes
on Soap Instead Of
Natures Beauties.

There is strong talk of having
a petition circulated among the
citizens of the town asking the
council to allow the building of
an eight foot board fence around
that portion Of the city park ~
ing above Fifth street. 1t is posi-
lively asserted that such a peti-
ton will be started, but whether
on not anything will come Of it
only time will tell.
The costof the fence would not
have to be paid by the city. En-
terprising soap makers have al
ready signitied their willingness
to put up the affair folthe plivil--
ege Of adjoining it with soap ad
Ivertisements. The ostensible
reason for the fence as put forth
/ by the hackers of the petition is
that the park should be protected
from wandering cattle and
|horses. The reason, however, it
is generally believed, is that
some of the citizens of the town
wish to "get back" at the owners
OF property fronting the park
who, by introducing petition at
the council meeting short time
ago, got the city fathers to order
buildings and structures OF all
sorts from the city park, after
the Ladies of the G.. A r., in a
ipetition signed by about 75 mem
bers of the order, had asked the
council to leave the japanese pa
CODA, erected for the G., A. r. en-
eampment, standing. The ladies'
promised to fix it up into an at
tractive haven of rest
Whether the proposed petition
will materialize- or not aues
ton, and whether, if it does ma
terialize, it will receive the re-
quired number of signers is
another question. Owners of
property fronting the park will
certainly not allow eight feet of
high.art soap advertisements to
obstruct their view of the lake
without putting up a very vigor-
Gus fight, and in view of the fact
that a low iron fence of attractive
design would answer all the pur-
poses of the big wooden one the
arguments put forth by the de
fensea would at least make the
battle interesting.

LABOR UNIONS SUED.
Heavy Damages Asked by Employers
on Account of Strike.


on Account of Strike.
Chicago, Aug 10. - Damage suits
against labor unions and members Of
unions aggregating $4,000 were filed
in Chicago courts yesterday. John M.
Stiles, painting contractor, who al
leges that hts business has been
ruined by labor unions, sued the paint
ers district council and unions af
filiated in the building trades councils
for $4,000. The American Boycott
association is pushing the case for
Stiles. The Kellogg Switchboard and
Supply company filed two suits each
for s15,ooe, against unions involved in
the strike which terrorized Chicago
short time ago and is still on. In
addition to these cases SIX young
women employees OF the Kellogg Swith-
board and Supply company have sued
eight women who participated in the
Kellogg strike for SANDER and libel,
each case being Tor 81 900 damages.

Corbett Met Defeat in the
Fight With Jeffries
Last Night.
IMMENSE CROWD WITNESSED
THE FISTIC BATTLE.
The Last Betting at the Ringside
Favored Jeffries Ten
to Four.

Jeffries came out victor in the
prize fight at San Francisco last
night. Crbett was knocked out
in the tenth round. Jeffries
seemed to have little the best Of
his opponent from the start.
The fstic battle attracted one
of the largest crowds which ever
came together for a similar pur-
pose in this country. Men were
there all the way from the At
lantic coast. The last betting
around the ringside favored
Jeffries, the odds being 10 to 4.
There were two preliminary
bouts before the big fight start
ed. Challenges to the champion
we're read from Jack Munroe
and Jack Johnson, the champion
negro boxer.
Both Jeffries and Corbett ap-
peared in splendid form as they
entered the ring. Jeffries was
a little inclined to force things in
the first round, and when the
bell rang was in the lead. He
showed up well in all the innings
following till the ninth, when
Corbett seemed to keep him
guessing. Early in the tenth
Corbett received a left hand
hook in the stomach and was
sent gasping to the floor. He re.
mained down nine seconds, then
struggled to his feet. He was
trembling and suffering terribly.
A few seconds later he went
down again and his seconds
threw up the sponge. The de-
feated man was carried to his
corner. Later he recovered
sufficiently to shake hands with
Jefries.
Corbett displayed his science
from the start Of the fight and
got in the most blows, but they
lacked the sledge hammer force
of those of his big antagonist.

Minneapolis Journal: Another
"dollar wheat" dream has come
true.
Cash wheat sold this morning
at ST a hushel in the Minneapolis
market.
When business opened around
the cash tables buyers were on a
still hunt for wheat. Frank Com
mons had a car of No. 1 northern,
one of the few received. He held
it at 81. For time buyers
fought around it and bid under,
but with renewed strength in the
option and posted receipts very
light the buyers with imperative
orders in hand saw no prospect
of getting in under the 81 level.
"I'll take the car, said E. D.
Bowen, ST., to Commons, and 81
wheat was recorded for the first
time in five years.
There was a wild yell, a
scramble of other buyers for the
few remaining cars, and a rush
of traders for the telegraph
counter. A hundred messages
flashed out and 81 wheat in
Minneapolis was the sensation OF
the day in the speculative mar
kets of the world. Later on S10l
was bid and S1.O2 asked for No. |
northern.
All the country is now looking
to this market. Chicago, New
York, st. Louis and other grain
trade centers are hanging on the
telegraphic reports from Mime.

ulative world.

To Be Taken With Salt.

We have all heard of the wonderful
Chicago slaughtering houses, where,
according to one story, live pig is
taken in at one end of machine and
turned out at the other in the form OF
sausages and collar studs, everything
being used except the squeal. Now
comes the news Of another proatgious
example of mechanical ingenuity. A
Swedish inventor, it is said, has con-
strueted a machine which takes her
rings as they come from the net, sorts
them into the four sizes required by
the trade. scrapes off their scales, cuts
off their heads, splits, cleans, and
washes them inside and out. Twenty
thousand herrings are thus turned out
every hour The story IS probably TO
5e taken with the proverbial grain OF
salt.

showed that it was hard hit; but it
pulled itself together at once, threw
back its head viciously. and struck at
poor Tommy with all it's force. But
Tommy lodged the stroke cleverly,
and fastening on the cobra tooth and
nail, gave him a second bite worse than
the first, wounding him SO severely
that he was evidently weakened, and
began to show signs of giving way.
