were adverse. The drnbbing
given the home team yesterday
clears the atmosphere wonder
fully. The team must be
strengthened at once. Pitchers
are anecessity and there are weak
spots in the fielding that must
be remedlied at once. McCamus,
Brayton, Finn, Ludwig and Hines
are fast and deserving Of better
company. With the addition OF
three more men Of like merit the
home team will be worthy the
patronage Of the large con-
.stituency Of fans in this city.
The city wants baseball and the
management of the team de-
serves more encouragement than
it has up to date received. It
takes money to make the mare

can hardly expect anything diff
fercnt in view of the financial
support which has so far been
accorded the club. The baseball
season for Bemidji is one that
holds much promise if the proper
steps to ginger UP the team are
taken at once.

TONS hero dead yesterday in a
formal observance Of Memorial
day, Although the observance
was not quite as elaborate as
upon former years the Memorial

attended despite unfavorable
weather.

Sons Of Veterans and I, large
number Of citizens assembled at
the City hall and were escorted
to Greenwood by the Ellis drum
corps, where the usual impress

q. A. r. were observed.
In the afternoon at 2 o'clock
Memorial day exercises were
held at the City hall and were
very largely attended. Com
mander Bailey, OF the local post,
presided. The stage was .beauti-
fully decorated with the national
colors, and Judge Ell Torrance,
ex.national commander OF the
G.. A. r., who deliyefed the adj
dress of the day, occupied the
seat Of honor. After the invoca-
ton by Rev. Mcleod, the audi
ence joined in singing 8 America =
and Judge Pendergast preceded
the reading Of the governor s.
Memorial day proclamation by
appropriate remarks. a guar
tette, composed Of the Mes
danes Ham and Jackson and.
the Messrs.W arfield and ,Jerrard,
rendered "Just Before the Battle
Mother" and the City Attorney
Russell followed by reading Lin
coin Gettys bury address. Miss
|lHaldeman gave vocal solo and
Mrs. C.E Bailey gave a recitation
which was enthusiastically re-
ceived. The address of the day
by Judge Torrance followed. It
was a masterful effort in the
Judges best vein, tribute to
the nation dead and to tho
sacred memories of Memorial
day that was ample and fitting.
Time and space will not permit
a synopsis Of the speech in today's
Pioneer, but it was a very accept

one of the best ever heard in the
city. The afternoons services
were concluded by a selection by
the quartette "Cover Them Over

Melvin, a gentleman Of culture,

reputation Of being influential at

this city brought a package Of
flowers to Mrs. Mondeau, mailed

The letter has been answered
and Mr.. Melvin will be, advised
that as he is only "an old sweet
heart" he cannot hope to sharein
the estate as there was no will
and the probate laws of the coun-
try provide only for heirs who
bear some degree of relationship.
