meat, and the consumption Of the

Denver, Colo, July 14.-The arrange
ments for the national encampment Of
the Grand Army Of the Republic with
its several affiliated bodies, which will
be held in this city in September, are
rapidly nearing completion. For many
years Denver has sought the privilege
Of entertaining the civil war veterans
and now that its desire is about TO be
fulfilled no trouble or expense is being
spared TO insure the visitors royal
time.
In connection with the meetings Of
the Grand Army there will be held the
annual gatherings of the National Wo-
mans Relief Corps, the National
Daughters Of Veterans, the National
Ladies' Aid Society, the National La
dies Of the @. A. r., the National
Army Nurses association, the Ma
tional Association of Naval Veterans,
and the National Association Of ex-
Prisoners Of War.
The meetings and reunions of these
various organizations will occupy the
greater part of the first week in Sep
tember. Much interest centers in the
choice Of new Commander-in-C Chief
Of the G. A. r., in succession to Gem
eral w. w. Blackmar, Of Massachusetts.
For this office there are already several
candidates and the contest promises 70

Mysterious Death Of Aged
Red Lake Indian Causes
Suspicious to Arise.
OLD MAN HAD QUARREL WITH
son. .IN-LAW.
Shortly Afterwards His Body Was
Found With Bullet Hole
Through It.

Mystery surrounds the death
of Ka-ga-ge, an aged Red Lake
Indian who was found lying out
side.h cabin between the Bat
tie river and Maquam bay about
two weeks ago with a bullet hole
through his heart. It is claimed
that the old man committed sui
eide, but the circumstances sur
rounding the death of the aged
Indian lead some to believe that
murder was com mitted.
Ka-ga-ge came home one even
ing to find his son-in-law, Kezey,
an Indian about %, beating his
wife. The old man interfered
and Kezey desisted. According
to information given the Pioneer,
Kezey afterwards invited the old
man out Of the cabin, where his
body was found the next morning.
The affair was reported to
Overseer DR.. Caldwell of the
Red Lake reservation, who re-
ported it to the Indian agent at
Leech Lake, with the result that
Deputy U. S. Marshall Frank w.
Tufts investigated. The investi-
tigation resulted in not finding
any witnesses that could give
any direct testimony as to the
manner in which Ka- ga -ge met
his death.

A prominent railroad contract
or in Bemidji this morning de.
clared that he is convinced that
the railroad survey now under
way from Detroit to Bemidji is
being undertaken by the 500. 81
haye seen the specifications for
the survey, declared this gen
tlemau to the Pioneer this morn
ing, "and they are Identical with
those always sent out by the 500.
There is absolutely no question
in my mind that the 500 is back
of the survey or that it will next
spring build the road"
The two surveying crews, one
working out of this city and the
other out of Detroit, are now
within II miles of each other.
The former is at Sucker Lake,
where it was joined this morning
by Engineer Abbott, who is in
charge of the survey, while the
latter is at Lower Valley Lake.
Mr.. Abbott said that on his re-
turn to Bemidji he might be able
to reveal the name of the road
causing the survey to be made.
A delegation of Park Rapids
business men waited upon Mr..
Abbott yesterday and set before
him the advantages of running
the road into Park Rapids. The
Park Rapids people, however,
want the present survey aband
oned and a line run from Park
Rapids northWest-probably to
