Title to Land Upon Which Is
Located New Town is in
Dispute.
JACOB A. BALL AND FRANK Gill;
LEY BOTH CLAIM LAND.
Evidence Heard Before a Referee
Yesterday and Will Be Sub.
mitted to Land Office.

A curious contest case involv-
ing title to the land upon which
the TOWNSHIP of GemmeI is locat-
ed will be decided by the officials
of the Cass Lake land office, and
much depends upon the decision
as the TOWNSHIP property is valu-
able, being located a few miles
north of Northome on the extern
sion of the M & I. from North
ONE to Ripple.
Frank Gilley took up the land,
100 acres, as a homestead, in
1902. After having lived upon
the land for some time he relin-
quished it, intending to file upon
it as stone and timber claim.
AT the time the REIMBURSEMENT
was made contest had been IN
stituted against the land Jacob
A. Ball, who was allowed to file
upon the land. GiIley now seeks
to recover the land on the ground
that his REIMBURSEMENT was
made so chat he could file upon
the land as a stone and tim Der
claim.
Evidence was taken in the case
at Northome before Referee

County Officials Do Not Be-
lieVe Nebish Homestead
err Was Murdered.
NO BULLET HOLE FOUND in
BODY OF SEXTON.
Remains Will Be Brought to Be-
midi For Complete
Investigation.

Coroner Marcum, Deputy
Sheriff J. N. Bailey and Assistant
County Attorney Pitkin returned
last night from Nebish, where
they made an investigation of the
reported murder of Perry Sex
ton, who was found dead in his
cabin six miles west of Nebish a
few days ago.
While the Investigation was not
complete, the officials, from what
they learned from examining the
body and premises in the vicinity
of the cabin, are led to believe
that the death of the old man was
purely accidental.
The body was found in the
cabin, but the only wound upon
the body was an ebrasion over
the left eye. Frem all appear
ances, Sexton bled to death after
having accidentally received a
cut oyer the eye as result of
falling upon grub hoe. 1t is
believed that the old man was
hoeing in the garden short dis
lance from the cabin and fell up
on the hoe he was using, that
afterwards he attempted to reach
the cabin and was successful but
that he bled to death in the cabin
the examination showing that al
artery had been severed.
1t was impossible to take the
body to this city yesterday, but
the remains will arrive here this
evening. Coroner Marcum will
hold an autopsy over the body
and providing any suspicious Cir
cumstances are developed an in
quest will be held.

Season for Hunting Deer.
Moose and Caribou Be-
gins Friday, Nov.1O.
INDICATIONS ARE THAT FEW
ANIMALS WILL BE KILLED,
Absence of Snow and Dryness in
Woods Makes it Bad For
The Hunters.

The season for hunting big
game commences tomorrow, Fri
day, Nov. 10. The season will
last until Nov. 80, after which
three days are allowed by the
game and fish laws in which to
take the game from the woods.
Two deer and one moose or Carl
bon are allowed to each person.
Many hunters have been arriv-
ing in Bemidji during the last
few days, and the indications are
that the woods will be full Of
of sportsmen. Most of the hunt
ers have established camps in
the vicinity Of Red Lake. North
ONE and Kelliher, while some
have even gone so far so Ripple.
There is every reason to be-
lieVe, from present indications,
that comparatively few deer and
moose will be killed during the
the season, unless heavy fall of
snow OCCURS before the season
is ended. At the present time
there is no snow whatever, the
wo DIS are dry and there is little
opportunity for shooting bic
game. Another thing which will
serve to protect game is the new
law which makes it manslaughter
for hunter to kill a person by
installing him for a. deer or
moose. Hunters will hereafter
make certain of the object whicl,
they see before shooting, and in
many cases the animal will

escape before the hunter has a
chance to fire.
Special game wardens have
been appointed by the fish and
game commission to patrol the
woods in this vicinity, and any
illegal killing of game will be
prosecuted to the full extent Of
the law.
