CROOKSTON BOYS
WERE EASY
Bemidji Team Easily Defeats
Crookston Aggregation in
Game Yesterday.

In what looked like a shut out
game of ball up to the seventh
inning, the local team yesterday
afternoon defeated Crookston by
a score of 4 to 8. The game was
interesting from start to finish,
but it was evident from the first
inning that the Bemidji team was
superior to the Crookston bunch
and everybody expected a shut
|out. In the seventh inning, how
ever, several bad errors made at
critical moments let in two runs,
and in the eighth the visitors
again scored a run on errors.
The locals succeeded in getting
two men across the plate in the
third inning and three hits
punched in the fifth netted them
two earned runs, making a total
of four. LeGore pitched excel
lent ball, especially in the second
inning, when with three men on
bases he struc out twoin success
sion and the third went out on a.
little pop up to second. Dunn,
the Crookston twirler, allowed
SIX hits, while the visitors sue
.ceeded in connecting with Lee
Cores curves only four times.
The score:

TRAIN WRECK AT
GRAND RAPIDS
East Bonnd Passenger Runs
Into Open SWitch-Fire-
man Slightly Injured.

No. "a, the east bound Great
Northern passenger, ran into an
open switch at Grand Rapids
Saturday afternoon and the en-
CINE, tender and baggage car
were derailed. The only injury
report is a slight ebrasion of the
head sustained by the fireman.
The train was running at a high
speed and when the open switch
was struck the engine almost
buried itself in the earth. A
wrecking crew was sent out from
Cass Lake and after several hours
the train was put back on to the
track and resumed it's way.

COUNTY SURVEYOR STOHER
MADE CALCULATIONS.
Minneapolis Capitalists Are
Looking Up Location for a
Pulp Mill.

That an enormous water power
can be developed in the Missis-
sippi river east of Lake Bemidji
was shown yesterday, when
County Surveyor M. D. Stoner
made calculations from measure
ments taken which satisfied him
that over 5000 horse power
could be secured with a ~ foot
head Of water.
Mr.. Stoner took the velocity of
the water, the volume OF the.
river per minute and the head
which could be obtained by plac-
ing dam across the river at a
point four miles east of Bemidji.
lake.
He found the velocity Of the
stream to be 200 feet in 81 sec
onds, and the volume per minute
to be about $4,000 cubic feet.
The head that it was found could
be obtained if a dam were placed
across the river four miles east
Of the lake is ~ feet, thus max
ing the horse power 1920.
1t is stated on good authority
that Mr.. Stoner made the survey
of the river at the request of
Minneapolis capitalists who have
it in mind to erect a pulp mill in
Bemidji. The Wisconsin men
who first proposed the erection
of mill in this city have evi-

was given out by them last win.
ter that work on tho construc-
tion of the mill would commence
this spring and as yet nothing
has been done toward putting IN
the dam which was authorized to
be built in a bill which passed
congress at the last session.
Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one way
to cure deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deaf
ness is caused by an inflamed
condition of the mucous lining Of
the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a
RUM bling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it IS entirely
closed, deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored
to it's normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an
infamed condition Of the mucu-
Gus surfaces.

both large and small, that could

for fishing, and long before the
sun showed itself above the hori-
zon the boatmen Of the city were
busy preparing boats, bait and
tackle, and hundreds of anglers

fishing grounds Of the lake.
Some were satisfied with a few
hours enjoyment, while others
remained during the entire day.
Everybody caught fish, and every
returning boat brought in it's

BABY SUPERsTITIONS
Ancient Chains and Customs fol-
Baby's Welfare.

Most old nurses carry the baby up
stairs before they ever let him 90 down
stairs to insure his ss$rising in the
world.' Some of them go farther, and
put a gold piece in his tiny hand-hold-
ing the hand shut over the coin. This
is supposed to bring the baby both
wealth and fame.
Where the baby's room is at the top
Of the house, superstitious nurses have
been known to step on q chair and lift
the baby up as high as<they can reach.
This, they say, answers the same pur-
pose.
The old time habit of giving corals
and bells to babies, in teething- time,
the baby something hard to cut his
teeth. ION that at the same time was
supposed to have miraculous power Of
helping the teeth thru without the pain
and discomfort usually attendant upon
such times.
But, besides, his 1corals were thought
to be the best guard against witches,
who usually took the form of night
mares Coral was an especially good
charm for the baby to have before his
baptism, too, for then was the time
when evil spirits must be warned away
by some amulet or other.
For the same reason horseshoes, OF
any bit Of cold iron, was kept over the
cradle, as iron was especially hated by
witches and all their tribe.
| tits said that baby who habitually
keeps his hands wide open will be gen
ero,ls and .open-handed all his life
If, on the contrary, be screws his hands
! Into tight fists, he will be grasping and
probably wealthy.

SEMICENTENNIAL PLANS
MEETING MONDAY AFTERNOON
WILL AGREE ON FEATURES OF
CIVIC CELEBRATION TO BE
HELD JUNE /. .ly

Territorial pioneers are, generally
signing the call for the meeting at the
CITY hall Monday afternoon, when
plans for the semicentennial celebra-
ton of st. Anthony's organization as
a city will be discussed. Committees
will represent the city council, the
Commercial club and the Native Sons
of Minnesota.
It is proposed to hold the celebration
a meeting Of territorial pioneers, to
Form q Hennepin organization. Edwin
Clark suggests that the exercises In
the AFTERNOON begin with a civic par
ade down Nico1let avenue, and over
the river to the Exposition building,
and to the Godfrey house, if it can be
moved by that time to a location in
Richard Chute square, and the Pills
bury library. In this parade, places
Of honor would be given to ex-mayors
and their wives and the widows OF for
husband was the first mayor Of St. An
thony half century ago, would natur-
ally be asked to take an honored place.
The territorial pioneers would ride in
the old stagecoaeh, in one Of the old
Red River. carts, and in carriages and
autos. Masonic orders would also take
part on account of their interest in the
Godfrey house, as the birthplace Of
Masonry in Minneapolis. Outdoor
exercises could be held if the weather
were pleasant, and in case Of rain the
speeches could be given inside the In
ternational auditorium. The occasion
may be made sort of reunion, bring
ing old Minneapolitans from other
states and cities.
Caleb D. Dorr, who sawed the lumber
for the Godfrey house, and now owns
it, says that the house was built in the
fall Of 1s4s, and not in 1849, as DR.. T.
