Plant of Bemidji Brewing
Company Rapidly Nears
Completion.
WILL BE MODERN AND MODEL
IN EVERY RESPECT.
Expensive and Up-to.Date Equip
ment Will Go I'M POsit on in
About Three Weeks.

If work at the plant of the Be.
midi Brewing company pro.
crosses las rapidly in the next
six weeks as it is at present
hoped and believed it will, the
first brew of home made beer will
be under way in about six weeks
from the present time.
The building has been under
course of construction since early
last fall. 1t is located on the
north shore Of Lake Irvine in
South Bemidji and the finishing
touches to the interior are being
made at present.
The company is capitalized at
$75, 900 and its.-plant in this city
will have capacity of sixty bar
rels per day and be one Of the
most modern and best equipped
brewing plants in the: state. 1t
will employ about a dozen men at
the first and as the business
grows the working force will be
enlarged.
The9machinery and equipment
whichlSs has been purchased is
the best E which it has been
possible to secure. Before it
was purchased the agents of the
company visited the large brew.
ing esta blishments in Milwaukee
and ST. Louis and were at some
pains to observe the most modern
methods employed in brewing.
After this trip they purchased
their equipment direct from the
factories and it is as good as
there is in any plant in the state.
The plant will be put in the
hands Of experienced men, sew
|eral of whom will come from the
Pabst breweries at Milwaukee.
The products of the establish
ment will be put at a high stand
ard and there maintained and it
lis believed that a large business
may be built up in this city and
the county adjacent.
The trade mark of the brand OF
beer which the brewery will
make is at present being con
sidered. It is probable that it
will be the head of Chef Bemidii,
done in the most capable Style of
the photographer.
The brewery will be the city's
first manufacturing enterprises
and it hopes for the support of a
liberal patronage.

Indications That M. & |.
Will Build North to
Beaudette Soon.
STORIES THAT CONTRACTS HAD
BEEN LET PREMATURE
If Extension is Made Contracts
Will Be Let Within the
Next Thirty Days.

The proposed extension of the
Minnesota & international from
Kelliher to Beaudette is much
under discussion in this city and
the up line towns at present. The
extension means the opening up
to settlement of some very re-
sourceful country, but there is
nothing at present that would in
dictate that it would be made this
winter.
The Minnesota & international
has filed its right of way plats.
This is a measure of protection.
The country is settling up rapid
" and if the plats arefiled before
the land is filed upon by home
steaders and claim owners they
cannot claim damages for the
right Of way going through their
property. The right Of way plats
were filed as early as lastNovem-
Der However, if the road is to
be put through during the pres
ent year it is probable that con-
traits will be let within the next
thirty days. The letting of the
contracts at this time would
mean a saving in the cost Of con-
struction. The line may go
through at any time. Its con-
struction is an assured fact, but
Just when the work will be begun
is an uncertainty. Ifother roads
should menace the territory
which the NJ. & I. proposes to
tap by extensions Of their lines
in that direction the work of ex-
tension might be begnn with 10
days notice.
In the event that it was begun
in the summer time it would be
necessary to corduroy almost the
entire right of way to the Big
Fork country across the big
swamp which extends from Thief
River Falls on the east to Big
Fork or the west. The engineer
ing problem, popularity supposed
to be a task outof the ordinary
isafter all nota serious dffdc Guilty.
The chief obstacle would be the
drainage problem. Engineers
have figured that aside from the
lateral bitches incident to the
right of way drainage may be &C
complished at cost Of about $500
per mile.
The announcement from the
north country that Foley Bros.
had been awarded a contract and
were to begin the work of con-
struction soon is said to be pre-
mature and without substantial

nAUDE ADAMS SICK.
Waterbury Theater Coers will be
 Disappointed Coming.

Maude Adams is not coming to Wa terbury this evening, as advertised. This will be a sad disappointment to the lovers of the best the theatrical world can offer them, and who have purchased seats for this evenings performance. There will be no per- formance, as telegram was received this afternoon that Miss Adams has been taken suddenly i'll in New York and her engagement here at least will have to be cancelled. It is not known at present how serious her ill., ness is, but her physician advised her to postpone any engagements for the present. Every seat in Polls theater had been purchased for this evening and many were offering any price for the chance to see the performance. The management will refund all moneys paid for tickets on presenta- ton at the box office. It is possible that a. future date may be- arranged for Miss Adams should her illness not prove serious, but that. cannot be promised for certainty.

Putting a Baby Elephant to Bed.

It was getting dark in the big circus tent. Nellie

'.You're just in time,'' said the circus
In one corner of the tent several elephants
One mother elephant had baby elephant not much
taller than Nellie.
''She'n put her baby to bed pretty soon,' said
the circus She always does before it's time to
go in the ring for the evening performance.
Nellie, her father and the circus man sat down
bale Of straw and watched the great beasts they
munched at their supper.
Presently the mother elephant put her trunk around
her baby's neck and seemed to whisper to him he
rubbed his head against her knee He stood moment,
then raised his head, tapped his little ears gave firt
of his little cord of tail trotted off by his mothers
side to the center of their pen.
There she left him, and went to pile of hay at
She took up bunch after bunch of hay with her
trunk and spread around her baby The baby did not
stir from the spot where she had left him.
When the hay was all spread, the mother began to
tread it down with her feet Then mama elephant went

ground with her trunk
This time stood outside the baby's bed and
blew cloud of fine dust into the folds of his skin till
he thororly powdered for the night.
This done she again put her trunk about his body,
and the little fellow dropped to his knees the carefully
trodden bed After few soft pats few soft grunts
from the mother the baby lay still and fast
asleep
But mama elephants work was not yet done She
took up hay in her trunk and tossed lightly along the
babys sides and back until he entirely covered.

THE BABY'S WALK.

My papa took me out to walk,
I thought it would be sport;
But papa's legs are very long,
And mine very short.
And my papa began to talk,
And my papa forgot
He had baby out to walk
Oh, how had to trot!
My papa went on fast and fast,
He dragged me like a cart!
I that my little bones
Felt coming all apart.
My papa like giant walked;
He walked with great long strides!
I didn It just know how to fly,
And I fell down and crieG
My papa thinks it strange IN tired
With such a little walk!
I'd like to tell my dear papa
If [ knew how to talk
I'd tell him when he says,
fIt's strange how tired you are!'
I coed ten times as much he
In going just as far!
