PRETTY WEDDING
LAST EVENING
Marriage of Miss Rose Knott
to j. P. johnson Celebrated
at Home of the Bride.

Last evening at the home of the
brides parents in this city, Miss
Rose Knott was married to J.P.
Johnson of Walker. The marri-
age rites were performed in the
presence of the immediate rela-
tives and a few friends and the
young people left this morning
for Minneapolis for short we'd
ding trip. The bride is the
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. George
Knott of this city and the groom
is a leading jeweler at Walker
where Mr.. and Mrs. Johnson will
make their home. The ceremony
was performed by Rev. L. A.
Willsey of the Trinity M. p.
Church of Minneapolis, an old
friend and former paster of the
brides parents. Mrs. johnson
has for some years been organist
at the Methodist church in this
city and is one Of the popular
young ladies of Bemidji. The
groom is known to many in this
city having formerly been in
business here. He is one of the

Disturbance at Laundry.

What might have resulted in a
serious mix up had not a police
man been present took place at
the Chinese laundry on Second
street this morning. A woods
man much the worse for liquor
applied for his laundry but could
not produce the check which had
been given him by the Orientals
when the bundle was left, and
onsequently he was refused his
clothes. He secured an officer and
went to the establishment and
demanded his wearing apparel.
The bundle was given to him but
he claimed a shortage which was
denied by the chink and in the
dispute which followed the
woodsman became unruly and
attempted to break the laundry
man up in business. He was
subdued by the officer, however,
and upon promising to be good
was allowed to go free. .

Claimed That Company Re.
presented by Jabez Hines
Has Located Minerals.
ESTABLISHMENT OF DOWIE
COLONY DECLARED FALSE.
Rich Veins of Iron Ore and Gold
Bearing Quarts Said to Have
Been Discovered.

The latest report current re-
garding the mysterious company
which is represented by Jabez
Hines is to the effect that the
company has for it's purpose the
ablishment Of a mining camp
at Hines Spur which will be used
while taking from Mother Earth
large quantities of iron ore and
gold bearing quartz which are
said to have been discovered near
the site of Mr.. Hines city. AS
to the truth of the mining story
the Pioneer cannot vouch, but a
statement made yesterday by
one who is on the inside dis
credits the reported establish
ment of either negroes or Dowie-
ties in the vicinity of Blackjack.
A gentleman who owns pro
perty near Hines Spur says that
he has it upon good authority
that prospectors have been at
work for some time looking over
the territory near Blackduck and
Hines Spur and that the results
of their Investigation have been
so satisfactory that the organiza.
ton of the company was perfect
ed almost immediately after the
first specimens of ore had been
presented and that this is the
reason for their buying options
upon all the land in that vicinity.
When asked concerning the
truth of the reported mineral
find, a prominent Bemidji man
who is connected in no small way
with the company said that he
would neither deny nor affirm
the report, buff that the object Of
the company would be known in
less than three weeks.
The secrecy with which the
company has carried on it's opera
tons lends color to the belief
that mineral has been found, as
sSnOuld Gne report nave gained
circulation before the options
were secured it would have re-
suited in the boosting of land
values in the upper country to a
price that would have made it alb.
solutely impossible to buy the
land for any reasonable amount.
Another fact which adds to the
probability that mineral find
has been made is that Blackd duck
is directly in line with a range
that extends from Hibbing to
Manitoba, which has long been
thought to contain veins of iron
ore by mineral experts.

The explosion of a steam boiler
at the farm of Fred Eikstadt,
four miles east of the city. yes
terday afternoon caused the al
most instant death of one and the
injury Of five others, three of
whom are not expected to live.
The accident occurred about 4
o'clock in the afternoon while the
six men were standing at the
side of the boiler talking. With
out an instant's warning
a terrific explosion took place,
the whole side of the boiler was
blown to atoms and the six men
we're thrown through the air to
land on large wood pile about
30 feet distant.
The men were engaged in saw
ing wood, the boiler being used
to furnish steam for circular
wood saw which had been pur-
chased few days before by Elk
stadt. They were standing about
nine feet from the rig when the
explosion occurred, discussing
the merits of the machine, which
was then being given it's trial test
and were intending to continue
the work, when in less than a
second they found themselves ly-
ing helplessly bruised and
scaIded and the machine utterly
useless.
The machine was standing
about $50 feet from the house
and upon hearing the explosion
Mrs. Eikstadt rushed out to see
what was the matter. She came

and the report was plainly au-
dible to inmates of the poor farm
which is just two miles from
the scene of the accident.
The cause of the explosion is
unknown. Not the least defect
was noticeable in the boiler,
which had been inspected last
Friday. The water guage show
ed plenty of water and the steam
pressure was not a bove the ordin-
airy. Various opinions as to the
cause have been advanced, but it
is probable that the real cause
will never be known.

stadt home they found the six
men lying upon the floor Of one
!! of the rooms. William Eikstadt,
the 12-year old son of Fred Elk.
stadt, was found to be dying and
his last breath was drawn shortly
after the arrival of the physici,
ans. A hurried examination of
the other injured men was made
which revealed the probably fatal
injuries of three others, and it
was decided to remove the five
men to st. Anthony's hospital in
this city. After binding splints
upon the broken bones and max
ing the injured men as comfort
able as possible, they were
placed upon two wagons provided
by the county poor farm and driv-
en- to the hospital, where they ar
rived about 2 o'clock this morn
ing. Here a more thorough ex-
animation was made which re
suited in locating the injuries
named above. Eikstadt was
found to have suffered a severe
fracture of the skull, a large
piece of iron having been liter
ally driven into the back of his
head, besides a broken leg and
foot. The two Brewers we're al
SO found to be in a critical condi.
ton as the result of skull frac
lures and broken bones. The
condition of the other two was
not so serious.
At the hospital the wounds
were dressed and the broken
bones placed in position last
night, after which the physicians
rested until today, when another
Investigation was made. The
condition of Eikstadt and the two
