G. H.Miles Hears From Rela.
tive Whom He Has Not
Seen for 80 Years.
LEAVES AT ONCE FOR ACKER.
MAN, MISSISSIPPI.
Search for Father Extending
Over Many Years Finally
Successful.

A message received yesterday
afternoon by G. Fl. Miles from
his father, Pettis Miles, who is
now at Alderman, Mississippi, is
the result of an extended search
conducted by Mr.. Miles for his
parents, who he has not seen
since he left home 80 years ago
at the age of nine. Mr.. Miles
Immediately prepared for a
journey to Mississippi and left
for Alderman last night on the
midnight train.
The meeting of father and son
after a separation of a score and
ten years will probably be one of
the most happy reunions that
ever occurred. Mr.. Miles par
ents we're poor and lived in an
eastern town. At the age of nine
years Mr.. Miles lefthometo go out
into the world and shift for him.
self. He went to Chicago, where
be spent several years as a news
boy and bootblack, afterwards
engaging in business when he
was still in his teens. He was
very successful and at the age of
21 he sold out his interests in the
Windy City for $113, OO0>and left
for the west.
He located at Galveston, Texas,
where he conducted a saloon
business for several years but
owing to adverse conditions Mr..
Miles was forced to sell out at a
sacrifice. He afterwards tried
several other western cities and
towns, but hard times during the
panic of 1890 to 1895 left him
with but a small portion Of his
fortune.
He Travelled extensively, how.
ever, and finally came to Bemidji
where he first bought the Great
Northern saloon and afterwards
erected the brick block at the
coroner of Beltrami avenue and
Third street. His history from
that time on is we'll known to. the
people of the city.
Mr.. Miles expects to remain at
Alderman about three weeks
and will probably bring his father
with him on his return to Be
midi.

ICE GOES OUT
OF RAINY RIVER
Navigation Opens On the Lit.
lite Fork-Daily Mail
Service.

Although Rainy River has been
opened nearly to the town Of
Baudette for some time, naviga,
ton did not open until Tuesday,
when the Itasca left on her first
trip for down-river points. The
ice in the Little Fork river went
out on Sunday and the steamer
Se.a.mo left Tuesday for the vii
lage of Little Fork and other
points in the valley. Before the
ice went out the water rose to a
point of six feet higher than it
was at any time last year, and
the warehouse of the Northern
Minnesota Navigation company
at Little Fork was destroyed by
ice. The Se-a-mo will connect
with the Itasca at the month of
the Little Fork, so that home.
steaders in the valley will have
a daily service this season. It is
not expected that Rainy Lake
will be free of ice until the first
of May and it will probably be
the 10th before navigation opens
on the lake.

The bill was fathered by the
Minneapolis delegation and it

Senator Swedback's opposition,
the senator being a member of
that committee.
The work of recommending
census enumerators will fall
largely to Senator Swedback
and the senator states that many

Cheated Death.

Kidney trouble often ends
fatally, but by choosing the right
medicine, E. H. Wolfe, of Bear
Grove, Iowa, cheated death. He
says: 1.-TWO years ago I had kid
ney trouble, which caused me
great pain, suffering and anxiety,
but took Electric Bitters, which
effected a complete cure. I have
also found them of great benefit
in general debility and nerve
trouble, and keep them constant

have no equal" All druggists

PROTECTION GUARANTEED.
TemFe Has a GatIing Gun and Deffes
 the World.

Tempe no longer has any fear of an invading fleet coming up the river and capturing the town. There never has been any real alarm over the matter but then there might be and for those who are inclined to worry over the possibilities of such a dire disaster it is announced that C Company. Y. C. A. beside their ordinary Krags are now supplied with an up to date Cat ling gun. capable of discharging with deadly effect and true accuracy 325 shots per minute. The gun was brought over from Phoenix yesterday afternoon by sam Miller and will be put together at once and prepared for action. It uses the same ammunition that the smaller arms do and as the company has on hand q quantity of this there will be q trial made with the gun in the near future.
 Aside from enjoying the distinction of being the only company in the ter ritory to possess such an article of warfare, it is a pleasure to know that the gun was given this company on account of the fact that it's member ship was greater than that of any Oth- CT company in Arizona.
