WINDOW DISPLAYS
Those Made This Year By Be-.
midi Business Men Are
Particularly Fine.

Bemidii business men have
this wear done themselves proud
in their window displays for the
IChristmas season. For good
taste and novel ideas the dis
plays seen in Bemidji this year
can not be improved upon any
where in the northwest. While
some are much more elaborate
than others all are exceedingly
we'll done.
O'Leary. & Bowser's magnif-
cent Xmas window has attracted
general attention from adults as
we'll as from children. Barker's
window display of china, silver
and jewels is one of the prettiest
ever seen in the northwest.
Schneider Bros, the clothiers,
display two windows very effect
lively. b. H. Winter & Co. dis
play some Of the finest hand
painted china ever seen in this
city. VIM. McCugig has a very
novel and interesting display OF
toys. E. Z. Naylor has a big
stock of toys as we'll as furniture,
and has displayed both very
clevefly. The Fair has two very
attractive windows Of Christmas
goods in great variety. The P.
e. F'olkers Jewelry Co. devotes
but small space to window dis
play, but it is attractive enough
to induce every one who looks at
it to go inside and look over the
company's big stock of cut glass,
china and jewelry. Two very
enticing windows Of Xmas fur
niture are displayed by j. p.
Lahr, the Minnesota avenue fur.
niture man. Mrs. Berman has
crowded a wealth of ladies fur
nishings into several windows
which are tastefully. arranged.
The big store of j. Peterson,
Jr., IS a most attractive place for
children with it's fine display
of Christmas toys and candies.
/. Meyer & Go. have two big
windows attractively arranged
with seasonable clothing. A. b.
Winter, the jeweler, has an ex-
ceedingly attractive window
which has elected much admira-
ton. For an alIuring display of
millinery and ladies furnishings
James j. Severson's display is
hard to beat. The Palace has a.
notable display of clothing. j..
A. Ludington's hardware dis
play is we'll worth seeing, and
the Bazaar makes a fine display
under adverse circumstances.
l. B. Olson, the Lakeside confec-
TONER, has fine display of toys
and other Christmas goods.
These and other displays too
numerous to mention are acredit
to Bemidji.
Were it not that we are so busy
taking in new subscriptions the
Pioneer would have washed its
windows and displayed a few
new exchanges in place of those
which have done duty in our
front windows for the past six
months.

Buys Interest in Cafe.

Fred Thome today closed a deal
by which he becomes interested
in the restaurant business of
John Buckley at the Palace cafe.
The new firm will be a strong
one. Mr.. Thome has quite a
local reputation as a chef and
Mr.. Buckeyes place has always
been one of the most popular in
town. The Messrs. Buckley and
Thome will run a first class
place and will no doubt get their
share of the local trade.

LAUGH Al SMALLPOX
DR.. Ohage Comments Upon Their Iu-
norance Regarding the Disease.

"You would be surprised how little
h people in the country districts
know regarding the possibility of an
epidemic of smallpox" commented DR..
Ohage yesterday. They simply give
the dieaSe no more thought than if it
was the humps of their boyhood
days.
Il came in on the train last night,
and a conversation had with one
cOuntryman convinced me thai if
something is not done, this state will
be facing an epidemic soon thai it
will not be likely to forget.
This fellow added the doctor, did
not know who I was, and the perfect
freedom and jocular manner in which
he spoke of cases that had come I'M
der his notice showed that he and his
neighbOrS looked upon the diease as if
it were a mere rash. He pooh-poohed
the idea of ~quarantining victims, and
thought is was ridiculous that the
state should spend so much money in
fighting it. Ignorance is bliss, I
thought, but what a lot of n such
ignorance is costing the country"
The local department has rounded
up five cases in less than a week, and
now has a houseful at the inf1rmary.
None of h cases is necessarily fatal,
but some of them are giving the de-
partments lots of trouble to cure. DR..
Ohage's observations are that nearly
every case found is much harder to
treat than a year ago. The disease
is more Virulent this year thar last.

WIFE BEATE SHES AT
W0RKHOUSE SENTENCE
Mickey FIahcrty Does Not Like Atti-
tude of the Court.

Mickey" F~laherty, who lives in a
little shack in the Hollow" was in
the police court yesterday, charged
with having assaulted his wife. Fla
nefty IS said to have gone home
Thursday night, while under the in
Iuence of liquor, and during a quarrel
with his wife, struck her over III head
with a Ratchet, cutting a cash four
inches long in her scalp. The woman
was found by neighbors, who at first
thought she had beer murdered. She
was unconscious, and when the neigh
DORIS entered the room the woman was
lying in a pool of her own blood. Pa
trolman Horgan and Detective Moran
responded to a call for the police, and
placed Flaherty under arrest. The
woman was found to be very weak
from the loss of blood, and was unable
20 appear in court yesterday. FIaherty
is an old offender, and has been in the
ponce court upon numerous occasions
Tor having miStreated his Wife. Judge
~Flnehout yesterday offered to allow
him to plead guilty to assault.
How much do | get if I plead
guilty?' Mickey asked.
You'll get ninety days in the work.
mouse, and you are lucky to get off at
that replied the judge.
Wen, then l Won't plead guilty;
that's too long a time to stay out
there said the prisoner.
The case went over until Monday,
and an effort will be made to have it
disposed Of before the wife reIents and
refuses to prosecute. Upon several
previous occasions, after the woman
had been given a beating, she ppear
ed in court and ~interceded for her hus-
band. This time, however, an effort
will be made to land Flaherty in the
Workhouse before his wife is able to
be about.
