WORKS DAY AND NIGHT.

Lou Wright, secretary of the big
Marathon county fair was in Athens last
week in the interests of the exhibition,
and says that the fair this year will be
larger and better than any ever held in
this county. This is easy to believe, for
Mr. Wright is working day and night to
make the big show success, and = it
isn't it won't be his fault. The fer this
year will be held on Tuesday, Wednes-
day, Thursday and Friday, Seps 6, Z, 8
and 8.
The Marathon county fair is noted all
over the state for its splendid exhibitions
of live stock and the premiums this year
will attract stockmen for many miles
around. Instead of putting money into
high dives, balloon ascensions, etc, Mr..
Wright says he believes in spending
money for things that are of vital inn
portance to the farmer, and according
ly has secured the service of the most
expert stock Judges he could secure
Joseph f. Wing of Ohio, famous as a
WIlleI IDG Tile DIctutIS udLtblc,
and DR.. c. S. Alexander and Prof. q.
G. Humphrey. of the state agricultural
school, will Judge the live stock. Prof
Harrington will judge the dairy pro-
ducts.
Considerable interest has been
aroused by the farm team competition
and it is probable four teams from sur
rounding towns will enter this class
Athens is noted for the fine horses in its
vicinity and there is no reason why q
few farmers around here should not &C
over to Wausau and take the money
home to Athens. 1t viii be good adj
vertisenent for this part of Marathon
county and will enable the farmers to
take in the fair as every farme. should
Another feature of the fair will be the
horse races. Secretary Wright says
that every race is filed with some of the
best horses in the state and that there

WON CONTEST.

The Woodmen picnic held at Merrill
Wednesday and Thursday was attended
by large crowds from nearly e2ery city
and town within the jurisdiction of the
Northern Picnic association and es-
pecially from Wausau. A special train,
run from Merrill to WaHsau Thursday
evening, was so crowded that standing
room was at premium and the same
was true of the regular train. The wealth
er for the two days was very pleasant for
a picnic-cool and dry-and the enter
taInment furnished by the Merrill peo-
pie was so varied that everyone en-
ioyed themselves. There We're foot,
bag and tub races, tug of war, nail
driving contest and various other
amusing features.
In the contest for drill teams, but
three teams were entered, Wausan,
Schofield and Eau Claire and. as pre-
dicted in this paper a few weeks ago,
the Wausau team won, with Eau Claire
second The Schofield team was at a
disadvantage for it has beel but lately
organized and has drilled but few
times, bat Notwithstanding this fact,
did remarkably we'll. The total num-
ber of points made by the Wausau
team was $50; Eau Claire, S55, and
Schofeld n The members comprising
the Wausau drill team are Ben Johnson,
Capt, Geo. Glenn, Geo. johnson, j..
Nutter, w. ST. Clair, A. Rank, /. .
Heller, Ii. Hedstrom, ID. Pregent, G..
Blume, A. Nelson, G. Parker, j. Klap-
perich and G.. Clouthier.
The place of holding the next picnic
was given to Grand Rapids. The Wau-
sau delegates went to Merrill instructed
to vote for Eau Claire, in compliance
with a request from that city for sup
port, but on the floor of the convention
the Eau Claire delegates refused the
picnic.
The following officers were elected
for the picnic next year;
President-E Getchell.

BEATEN BY THE INDIANS.

The local aggregation and the Lac
du FlanIbeau Indians met at Keenan's
park Sunday afternoon. 1t is putting
it rather mild when we say that the red
skins are all there when it GENES to
playing base ball and showed their
white brothers few little tricks in the
art that they never even knew existed.
1t didn't take the savages long to run
up neat little score against the locals
and At the end of the ninth inning the
result stood to 10 in Flambeau's favor.
The boys were extremely crestfallen to
think that the honors which they had
gained the Sunday previous from
Arbor Vitae, had been so quickly and
neatly taken from them. 1t is doubt
less whether the word base balIn will
be mentioned here again this season.
The copper colored denizens ex-
pressed little spirit over their victory.

NATE BALDWIN DEAD.

Nate Baldwin, who resided in this
city for great many years, but who
for the past two years has been resi-
dent of Brokaw, lost his life Thursday
while at work in the plant OF the Wau-
sau Paper Mills Co. The manner of
for no one witnessed the accident. In
making paper in that plant, hemlock
bolts are run through chipping ma
chimes and the chips carried 5y con-
veyor to bins. The bius are situated
over digesters, three in number, ana
when one bin is filled a spout or slide
is so changed that the chips are con
veyed to another bin. Each bin holds
enough chips to fill digester, the lat
ter being large circular steel tank,
forty-two feet i'll depth, fifteen feet in
diameter, with an aperture at the top
three feet in diameter, and are subject
ed TO great heat. After the chips are
dumped in, acids are poured into the
digesters, which eat up the chips to a
pulpy substance.
1t was part of Mr.. Baldwin's duties 10
watch the conveyor and when one bin
was filled to change the slide to another
bin. Shortly after 1000 O'Clock that
a ladder leading to one of the chip bins
and that was the last seen of him alive.
The supposition is that he fell into the
chip bin and later was carried into the
digester, when it was filled. He was
not missed for some time after, when
search of the mill was made for him
without result of finding any trace of
him. 1t was suggested to Mr.. Ed
monds, manager of the company, that
the man might be in the digester and
he ordered it cleaned out At once
crew set to work, but as the men had to
work under adverse circumstances it
was not until 2:30 next morning that
they found the body. Each digester
holds the chips of twenty cords of bolts
and as the chips had to be shoveled
into basket and drawn up through
the three TT. aperture, the task was
long one. Besides this the heat was so
great that the men could not work long
at time, Notwithstanding the fact that
cold air blowers were brought into
After about thirty feet of
chips had been removed Mr.. Baldwin's
lifeless body was found, and was drawn
up to the floor above and removed to
his home. From the facial discolora-
tions it is thought the mar lied from
suffocation. The weight of the chips
might have killed him, at any rate the
heat would have done so.
Justice Giese empanelled coroner's
jury and after taking the testimony of
a number of the mill hands, a verdict
was rendered that deceased came to his
death by reason of suffocation after ac-
falling into the chip bin.
Mr.. Baldwin is survived by wife
and five children. He was insured for
81 600 in the Brokaw lodge of Modern
of America and for ST. 900
in Boynton Tent, No. 2S, X. o. L. M,
Of this city, besides carrying an acci-
dent policy for 5000.
The funeral was held Sunday after
noon and was in charge of the above
named societies.

Chairman Lacy of the house committee on public

of the demand for the repeal of the desert land act and
certain other laws by which title to public lands may be
obtained is clear that the of the great rail

movement They want to sell their lands and they know
that would be much easier do if it rendered
difficult title public lands If the latter
taken out Of the market the railroad lands would the
only large bodies left except few Mexican and Spanish
grants in the Southwest Homeseekers would then be
compelled to the railroads, which in all probability
would find for advancing their prices The
for the demand tnat the land laws referred be

these frauds not due to the laws They the
fruit of negligence crminaliy in the land offices in
which they occurred What the situation calls for is
enforcement of the law and its repeal The pol

settlement of the public domain by encouraging home
seekers to locate the public lands These lands

land laws.-Denver Republican.

Popular Young People at
Bagley Are Married
Very Slyly.

Mr.. Henry Huseby, cashier OF
the First Ma tional bank of Bagley
was married last evening at Bag
ley to Miss Sarah Moen, a popu-
lar young lady of that village, and
the young couple made a COM
plete getaway before any of
their numerous friends realized
what was happening. Both bride
and groom are exceptionally pop
ular in Bagley, and although their
engagement has been known for
some time there was no suspicion
among their friends that they
contemplated marriage at the
present time. Mr.. and Mrs.
Huseby came to Bemidji last
evening and went south this
morning for short trip.
It is safe to say that there will
be doings when they return tc

PLACED BEFORE THE SENATE.
House Committee Reports Action on
JUDGE SWayne's Case.

+
Washington, Dec 15.-When the
senate convened it was understood that
before the close of the day it would be
called upon to take cognizance of the
decision of the house of representa-
tives to begin impeachment proceed
ings against Federal Judge Charles
Swayne of the Northern district Of
Florida. Apparently the senate had
not counted upon being so confronted
with this problem, so that when a few
moments before the hour Of meeting
the house committee appeared at the
vice presidents room to confer with
President Pro TEN. Frye there was a
general scurrying about on the part
of the officials to find precedents and
to make preparation for the ceremony,
the like of which had not been wit
messed in the senate chamber since the
proceedings of 1876 against Secretary
Belknap.
A brief informal exchange of views
as to the time when the senate should
take up the case ensued. It was sug,
gested that the trial might be post
poned until after March next or even
until the next session of congress.
After the house committee had re-
tired Mr.. Plat (Conn.) presented a
resolution directing that '.the message
of the house OF representatives rela-
tive to impeachment of Charles
Swayne" be referred to a select com
mittee to consist of five senators to
be appointed by the president pro TEN.
The resolution was agreed to.

SCHOOL BOARD
SUED FOR $500
Fergus Falls Manufacturing
Co. Sues to Secure Pay
ment For Material.

A meeting of the school board
of the independent district of
Bemidji was held at the presi-
dents Office in the school house
last night and it was decided at
the meeting to take a change of
venue from the district court of
Ottertail county to the district
court of Beltrami county in an
action broughtb by the Fergus Falls
Mfg Go. who claim damages in the
sum of $500 for material furnish
ed to Contractor Frank Miller in
the fall of 1903 during the con-
struction of the second addition
to the high school building. The
grounds upon which the suit is
instituted are that the school
board did not require the con-
tractor to furnish a sufficient
bond to protect parties who fur
nished material for the addition,
and consequently are responsible
for the amount. The matter will
be fought in the courts and Ches-
ter McKusick has been retained
by the school board as it's attor-
ney.
