Warning the Kids.

For some time of late a few
youngsters living in the outskirts
of the city have been in the habit
of tearing off the time cards on
the mail boxes stationed at the
corners of the streets for the
convenience of residents who do
not care to take the trouble of
going down to the rostofice to
deposit the mail. The attention
of Postmaster Carson has been
called to the action of the kids,
and if there is repetition OF the
offence, stern measures will be
taken to prevent a continuance of
the practlce. Monkeying with
your Uncle Samuel's mail par.
aphernalia is serious offense,
and the government officials pro-
secute violators with an un-
sympathetic vigor.

Will Not Discuss North

W. H. Gemmil, general mana.
ger of the M. & I. railway, and
W. Fl. Strachan, superintendent,
came in last night from Big Falls,
IN private car No. SO, hauled by a
special engine. They we're on a
general inspection of the road
from Brainerd to Big Falls, hav-
ing gone north on Tuesday.
When asked concerning the
probability of the M. & l. being
extended north from Big Falls
in the near future, Mr.. Strachan
informed the Pioneer that he had
nothing to give out on that point
at present and disclaimed any
de6nate knowledge in the matter.
However, the company is erect
ing a bridge across the Big
Fork river, about 800 feet from
the depot. Tee bridge will be a
substantial affair, and it will be
necessary to use $4,000 yards of
dirt to grade the approaches to
the bridge. They returned to
Brainerd at this morning.

WOMAN is OUT
ON $500 BONDS
Mrs. Jennie Anderson In Court
and Case Is Continued
to August 10.

Mrs. Jennie Anderson, who
has gained considerable notoriety
through her attempt to obtain
$4,000 on draft issued to another
Mrs. Jennie Anderson by A. O.
u. W. order, was arranged in
justice court yesterday after
noon, before Justice Pendergast.
Mrs. Anderson was accom-
panied by her attorney, Charles
Scrutchin, and Was prepared to
waive examination on the charge
of having acted in a fraudulent
manner. Her case was con.
tinued until August 10, when it
will be taken up in justice court.
The woman still stoutly main
tains her innocence of wrong in
tentions in attempting to collect
the amount of the draft and will
undoubtedly put up a hard fight
to clear herself of the charge
that has been preferred against
her. The circumstances sur.
rounding the case are quite com
plicated, and it is barely possible
that the woman will be eventually
cleared.
Mrs. Anderson gave bonds in
the sum of $500 for her appear.

In Nashville

Upon being asked about the mat
ter he said: For nine years I was
sufferer from rheumatism. Tie
disease made rapid progress and
seriously affected the muscles of
my back and shoulders. In fact.
for several years I have been un-
able to MAINTAIN an erect carriage
and seemed to be growing more
bent and bowed each day. At
times l suffered, circulating pain
and was unable to be out or attend
to business. For more than a year
L nave been in a condition that
made sleep impossible and lack of
rest combined with the pain I
suffered made me almost a mental
as we'll as physical wreck. AL
though L have tried many remedies
without avail and was determined
to let the disease run it's course I
was attracted by the marvellous
cures said to have been made by
this man Cooper. In consequence
L obtained some of his medicines
and have been using them for about
ten days. The Improvement in nv
condition is nothing short of re-
'htSi Quiz. l. ll0 MUSCLES or nv
back and shoulders are now re-
Taxed and stronger than for five
years. 1t is now possible for me
to walk about as other men and +
have suffered no pain for several
days. No one, who has not bad a
similar experience, can imagine
how | feel towards this young man
and it is impossible for me TO fully
express my gratitude to him. He
has given me strength and surcease
from pain when L had about lost
hope of again knowing either.
Inquire at E. A. Barker's Drug
store who has the local agency for
Cooper's remedies developed the
fact that there is q large demand
for the preparation in this vicinity
and that some remark able cures
have been reported in this city.

Cooper Popular

The remarkable work of L. T,
Cooper, who is fast achieving
national reputation and is now in
the south, hos reached it's climax
in the city of Nashville, Tenn, The
newspapers of that city and of 9TH
ers in the vicinity have printed
columns devoted to a description
of the work of his medicines in the
cure of various diseases. The
people of Central and Eastern
Tennessee are great y wrought up
over the results accomplished by
this young man through the me-
dunn of his New Discovery Me Ii
cine and each day it is said his
headquarters are damned by
crowds of excited people who are
eager to speak with him.
Many stories, almost marvellous
In their import, have been told of
the manner in which he has re-
lieved long standing cases of Stom-
ach and Kidney trouble, Rheuma-
tism, Deafness, Catarrh and 9TH
er diseases. The introduction of
medicine with the property of re-
lieving these troubles has made
Cooper the most popular man in
Nashville today, if reports from
that city are to be believed. The
fact that he is a believer in charita-
BILE work and is constantly on the
lookout for some one needing as
sistance has but added to his pop
ularity with all classes and made
him almost the idol of the masses.
In the tales told of COOper's
work and in the articles which have
appeared in the dalies of the, city
the names of many people of re-
spectability and prominence have
been mentioned.
Mr.. w. F. Anderson, 124 Third
Avenue, North, perhaps the most
prominent automobile dealer in
the city and we'll known in business
circles, was among those who, it
was said, had been benefited by
the use of Cooper's preparations.

EXAMINATION PERFORMED
LAST EVENING AT HOUPT
HemOrrhage Caused by Fracture
OfSkull in Fall Resulted
in Death.

At Houpt last night a post
norton was performed on the
body of Archie Campbell, who
died in a room at the Labree
hotel in Houpt last Saturday
night.
DR.. Ward of Northome, deputy
county coroner of Itasca county,
had charge of the examinations,
and DR.. Smith of Bemidji was
present, at the request of w. S.
Campbell, father of the dead
young man.
The post norton was very
carefully performed, and the
body thoroughly examined. A
large clot of blood was found in
side the skull, but outside the
brain, on the left front side of
the head, near the eye and ear,
which came from hemorrhage
caused by a fracture of the skull
on the back Of the head, a little
above the left ear.
The clot of blood caused pres.
sure on the brain, which resulted
in death, although the lungs
were very much congested. The
liver was undergoing the process
of hardening and the kidneys
were very much affected.
There we're numerous adj
hesions between the different
lobes of the lungs and between
the lungs and the walls of the
cavity. 1t was practically dem
onstrated by the post norton
that the blow which made the
lacerated wound over the left
eye land which was made by the
small balsam stick in the hands
of Edison Bereman) did not re-
suit in the rupture of the blood
vessels which caused death.
The remains will in all prob
ability be inferred at Northome.
The preliminary hearing of
Edison Bereman and B. F. Brady,
who are being held in connection
with the death of Campbell, will
be held before Justice Duncan
at Northome, this evening at $50,
when both men will waive ex.
animation and be bound over t,
the grand jury of Itasca county.
Application will be made to Judge
Spooner for bail.
E. E. Mcdonald was present
