Coupling Contest and Second
In Foot Race.

The Bemidji running team lost
the banner hose race OF the
Northern Minnesota Firemen's
Association to the Hallock run
ming team yesterday afternoon
by one and one fifth seconds
after a hard run for yictory over
"a slow track attended BY unusual
misfortune.
The home team would have
won handily but for thefailure
of Dennis to make the coupling
until the second attempt The
time of local team was twenty
eight seconds and the Hallock
team went to victory in twenty
six and four.fifths. The failure
Of the team to win the banner
race was simple matter Of hard
luck and it IS doubtedly the
fastest all around team in at
tendance at the tournament.
Dennis won second money in
the firemen's foot race in eleven
seconds and Geilwon first money
in the coupling contest OF four
and four ffths.
Hallock people are treating the
! boys royalty and they are enjoy
ing their visit there immensely.
All the boys are in good spirits
