SHOULD PAY 1T
THEMSELVES
Bemidji People Think Hib-
bling Can Afford to Pay
for Special Train.

The people Of Bemidii do not
take kindly to the proposition
offered by Hibbing in regard to
the proposed base ball game be-
tween Bemidji and Hibbing next
Sunday. The people Of tie range
town, according to G. FL. Miles,
ask that the people of Bemidji
raise 500 to help defray the ex,
penses of a special train to be
run to this city next Sunday on
account of the base ball game.
When the excursion was run to-
Hibbing this summer nothing
was asked by the people of this
city or the management Of the
local base ball club from Hibbing
and the special train was chart
cred and paid for wholly by Be
midi people, several prominent
citizens taking the responsibility
for running the train. It was
also understood, at that time,
that the Hibbing people would
play a return game in Bemidii
and would run an excursion to
this city. The Hibbingites failed
to run any excursion or even to
send their base ball team to this
city.
Bruno FL. Coll, a wealthy Chicago
druggist, shot and killed himself in a
room at the Auditorium hotel.
Officials at Madrid discredit the con-
1nued reports of King Alfonso's APP
preaching marriage to various prin-
cesses. 1t is said that no decision will
be arrived at until after the kings
visit to Berlin.
