WHY 1T WAS
Forming Of New County Caused
Falling of in School
Enrolment.

That Beltrami county shows a
falling Of from last year in its
school enrolment is due TO the
fact that Clearwater county was
formed after the enrolment re-
port for last year was made out
This new county takes away
thirty five schools which We're in
cluded in Beltrami,s report for
last year But for this fact Bel

an increase IN its enrolment in
stead Of a falling off when the

Farmers Daughter Ran
Away From Home
Yesterday.
FATHER OFFERS REWARD FOR
HER RETURN.
Girl Only Fifteen Years eld.-
Bound for the Twin
Cities.

Elsie Eickstadt, the fifteen
year-old daughter of Herman
Eickstadt, a farmer living three
miles east of town, packed her
clothes and few belongings in a
bundle yesterday afternoon and
left home. She was seen late in
the day near town by the hired
man, but since then no trace of
her has been found. 1t is
thought that she will try and
reach the Twin Cities. Her
father has offered a reward of
$40 for her return. The girl is
large for her age, wears long
dresses and when she left home
wore a white straw hat It is
not known whether she had any
money in her possession or not.
Elsie has several brothers and
sisters. Her mother is living
and there seems to be no reason
why the daughter should have
run away. For some time past
she has appeared to be discon-
tented and has frequently ex-
pressed a desire to go to the
cities and strike out for herself.
Yesterda while her father was
/ away to Brainerd, she gathered
together her belongings and
started for town. She was soon
missed and her mother guessing
what had occurred from the fact
! that her daughters Sunday dress
was not hanging in it's usual
place, sent the hired man in pul-
suit. When within a mile Of
Bemidj il he wv the girl several
hundred yards ahead of him, and
\ started down another read to
head her off. He did not see her
again. Mr.. Eickstadt 1t arrived on
the evening train and a search
was instituted. All trains leav-
ing the city were watched but to
no avail. 1t is thought that Elsie
has started to walk to some of
the towns along the line. No
trace of her can be found in
Bemidji.

OUTLOOK GOOD
Minnesota Potato Crop Should
be Good if Rains do Not
Interfere.

"The general outlook for a
potato crop in Minnesota has
been exceedingly favora able all
fall and will continue so if the
rains do not hurt the tubers, =
said a local grocer today. "The
farmers generally finish their
harvesting before they begin to
dig the potatoes. These rains
willnot cause the potatoes to be
mushy or soft as would have
been the case had the wet
weather come while the potatoes
were in process of growth. The
greatest difficulty now is that the
wet weather and the conseq uent
softening of the ground will pre-
vent the farmers from digging
them until they have been too
long in the wet ground. How
ever, I do not look for much loss
from this cause
Gas far as Bemidji is con
cerned, all danger of a potato
famine now seems to be averted.
The crop in this county has been
fairly good and 1t is now safely
stored away in root cellars.
There are enough OF the tubers
to supply home trade, and the
price to the consumer should be
reasonable one this winter. "

THE LADY FIRE DIVER
Nine Liljens Engaged as a State
Fair Attraction.

Chairman, c, R. Smith Of the amuse-
ments committee Of the state fair an
nounces a new attraction for the after
noon and evening performances. He has
engaged Madame Marian Liljens, the
famous high diver. From height OF
sixty feet, this intrepid and graceful per-
former dives headlong into a narrow pool
of water eight feet deep. The peril Of the
performance Is heightened at night by
the application Of a lighted torch to a
costume Of intlammable material worn by
Madame Liljens
A hush comes over the audience as the
fearless diver prepares to make her SEN
sational plunge. None is cooler or more
self possessed in the vast crowd than she.
Ready" she says in a low voice to the
attendant. In q moment the torch is APP
piled to her suit and with no alternative
but to plunge, the header is taken. Down,
down she goes, as gracefully as a bird.
In a few seconds she enters the water
only to emerge an instant later, but a
few feet away, and with a few vigorous
strokes reaches the bank none the worse
for her nervy feat.

LILIEN GETS NO RESULTS
Building Laborers' Strike in statu
Quo-Mr. Lilien Goes
Away.

AS both sides appear to have expected,
the conference between the committees
from the contractors and from the strik-
ing building laborers, arranged for yester-
day afternoon by Hartman Lilien of the
Chicago branch Of the International Hod
Carriers and Building Laborers' union
was without result.
Mr.. Lilien produced letters showing that
where the Building Laborers' unions had
made working agreements with the en-
ployers they had kept them, but this did
not particularly impress the contractors.
The union men also suggested the es-
Establishment of a grievance committee,
consisting of three from each side, to set
the all disputes. This idea was not entirely
new.
The contractors had no suggestions to
offer and they do not look for any change
in their position.
Mr. Lilien went to Indianapolis last
night but will return Saturday. Until his
return the situation will probably remain
unchanged When he is once more on the
ground further attempt may be made to
spread the sympathetic strike started by
the bricklayers.

Suggestion has been made by J. r. Ell
we'll, one Of the leading promoters Of the
east river bank park, that representatives
of the Commercial club, the Retail Mer-
chants association and the Southeast I'm
provement association, be appointed a
committee to consider a plan to test the
popularity of the movement for the pur-
chase of the land bounded by the river,
Central avenue, Ortman and Bank streets,
University and First avenues Sc. c. W.
Field agrees to bring the Banda Rosa to
Minneapolis for a concert series. 1t is
proposed that the committee secure the
International auditorium and sell $4,000
worth of tickets. Mr.. Field will then do
nate for park purposes $4,000 of the sales,
and If only $4,000 are sold, he will donate
half. 1t is thought that $4,000 will be
needed to buy the land, in addition to that
which the park board has been asked to
condemn
