CROOKSTON LUMBER COMPANY TO SPEND
$4,000 ENLARGING IT'S BEMIDJI MILL
Machinery
Twenty a
Cut Of Fifty Feet

The Crookston Lumber COM
pany's sawmill has been closed
for the year, after one of the
most successful seasons saving
since the mill was established in
Bemidji.
The mill commenced saving
logs March Is and was run con-
tinuously for POI days and POI
nights, being exactly the same
length of time as it was operated
last year. The run was very
gratifying one, as there were no
breakages of any kind to the
machinery, and there was but
one accident to any of the en-
ployes, that being to Ben Guy,
last Wednesday, which could in
no manner be blamed to the COM
pany.
The seasons cut amounted to
over 100000 feet of logs and
was considerably more than was
cut last year. The company was
fortunate this year in having an
excellent crew, much better than
that of last year. E. II. Day,
the superintendent of the saw
mill, is deserving of much credit
for the excellent showing made

IMPORTANT CHANGE OF

Popular One.

The Minneapolis, Red Lake &
Mani oba railway has decided to
make change in the time of ar
rival and departure of the passen-
ger train on that road, and the
change will go into effect Wednes-
day of this week. H.
Since, the daily train was put
into service on that road the
train has left Bemidji at z in the
morning for Nebish and Red by.
Under the new schedule, the
train will leave this city at s a. N.
and arrive at Redby at 10:20a. M.
Returning, the train will depart
from Redby at $40 D. NJ. and
arrive in Bemidji at $50, instead
of, as at present. The change
of time will meet with the ap.
proval of the travelling public, as
the hour of leaving for the north
was somewhat too early to meet
the desires of the average citizen.
The earlier arrival from the
north in the evening will also
give transients an opportunity to
do shopping in ample time be.

their places of business.

his efforts to turn out all lum ber
to the full capacity of the plant.
During the entire running
time, between 500 and 600 men
were continually employed,
which meant much to the busi-

payroll of the company amounts
to about $l75, 900 per year, much
of whic b is circulated am ong the
merchants of thescity.
1t is the intention of the com
pany to increase the capacity of

in view forty men will be worked
at the mill during the remainder
of the winter, renovating the in

"B|LL|E" CARLISLE COMES
HOME FROM new MEXICO
Benefit Ball to Be Given by Firemen
Next Wednesday at
Opera House.

W. B. Carlisle arrived in the
city last evening from Albuqur-
que, New Mexico, wher+. he has
been for some time for the bene-
TT Of his health. Mr.. Carlisle
has, for more than a year past,
been a sufferer with a complica.
tion of ailments that greatly
weakened him, and caused bis
resignation from active duties
he went to the Pacific coast dur
ing the past sum mer in the hope
that he would be benefited, but
the relief he obtained was only of
a temporary character. He
worked for few weeks, when he
was again forced to resign and
went to New Mexico, where it
was thought the southern climate
would be beneficial. He failed
to gain and a week ago sent word
to friends here that he desired
to return to Bemidji. His letter
was responded to by the mem
bers of the Bemidji fire depart
ment and he was sent for, arriv-
ing in the city last night, after a
very fatiguing journey.
It is believed that there is
little chance for his recovery,
and a benefit ball has been ar.
ranged, which will be given
under the auspices of the fire
department., at the city hall,
Wednesday evening of mex,

will be put in it's place. 1t is
estimated that these improve
ments to the plant will cost not
less than $4,000, . and will in
crease the capacity of the plant
at least 2O,O0O,000. This will
necessitate the employment of
more men in the shipping de.
partment, and in fact all other
departments of the mill.
The increasing of the capacity
of the local mill was necessltated
by the fact that the mpany de-
sired to have just as large an out
put of lum Der next year as this
year. Three mills, one at Crooks
ton, another at st. Hilaire and
the local mill manufactured the
lum Der. The st. Hilaire mill
has been dismantled, but with
the increased capacity here, the
com pany will have just as large
an output as ever. This year, so
far, the three mills shipped out
over 5000 cars of lum Der, and
next year expects to duplicate
the amount. 4

PICK-UPS BEAT FIREMEN
five IN BASKETBALL GAME
First Game of Kind Ever Seen in
City, Last Night---ScOre
27 to 18.


seen in Bemidji was played at
the city hall last evening, when
the fire department five played
against a team selected from
players who are not memb bers of
the department.
The game brought out a fair
crowd, most OF whom were
ladies, and they were repaid in
seeing a very fast contest that
aroused great enthusiasm.
1t was agreed to play two
halves, the first of twenty-five
minutes and the last for twenty
five minutes, and the team s
lined up as follows for the first
half:
Fire Dept. Positions Pick-Ups
Fl. Geil....... Forward. Roy Luisey. Capt
Earl Geil......... Forw d........H. Barret
~
Art Gould. Guard. .....J. Schumacher
c. L. Hetfron .... Center. Garnet Peterson
(Capt)
AS soon as the referees
whistle announced the beginning
of the match there was a warm
scram BILE between the players
and the game was a very fast
one from start to finish. Col
lins, for the "pick-ups," threw
basket in very few moments
after play commenced, and Gar
net Peterson followed with an
other for the same team. Lee
Heffron threw the first basket
for the fremen. Collins followed
with two baskets in rapid sue
cession, and the men on the pick
up team appeared to be too
strong for the fre-boys. Harry
Cell put the ball in the basket
for the fremen, and Collins and
Luisey followed him with one
each. The mix-ups we're fire.
quent and the game was hard
fought at all times. A foul was
allowed the firemen and Harry
Cell missed the free throw at the
basket. Heffron threw a basket
a few moments after the lineup
and Collins also put the ball in
the basket. A foul was allowed
the pick-ups and Collins threw a
basket on the free throw. An
other foul was allowed, but Col
lins missed the basket. Harry
Cell threw a basket, Barret also
put the ball where it counted
and Harry again put the ball in
the basket, which ended the
first half.
The players had maintained a
fast pace and it told on them.
The pickup team, which con-
taiEed at least three frs! class
old players, was too much for
the fire men.
In the s. cond La'f, the pick
UPS retained their same players.
Stewart replaced Earl Gel as
forward and Arthur Gould re-
placed Ed ward Gould as guard
tor the fire men.
The second half was if any
thing more fiercely contested
than the first half and baskets
were thrown by both sides with
great rapidity. Several fouls
we're com mitted and the ball
often went out of bounds, but
the players we're good-natured
IN their contest for supremacy.
When the referees whistle an.
nounced the close Of the game
the score stood 81 to 18, in favor
us the pick-ups.
For the successful team, Col
]ins played a very strong game
and was sure of a basket when
ever in close proximity to the
goal. Schumacher, Luisey and
Garnet Peterson also did gooG
work. For the fire. boys, Heffror
and Harry Cell were the best
with Arnold doing fine work as
guard. The rest of the boys
are green at the game, and will
undoubtedly improve greatly
with more practice.

Surveying a Canon.
From the American Magazine.

From the American Magazine.
The climax came at a point where the
canon turned abruptly at right angles. BY
the little beach where they landed to take
counsel, the water slid with gathering
speed, struck the opposite wall roaring and
foaming, and disappeared around the bend.
What happened beyond the bend they
didn't know; they didn't want to. But
they seemed destined to find out. Only
fly could scale the canon wall: even a snake
could not return against that current They
took FIVE minutes to make all fast They
were surprised to find that those five min
utes had not turned their hair gray. Then
they pushed off and the current took them.
They We're whirled through a momentary
hell of water and thunder, and shot out

In earnest. The mattress, the provisions
and most of the instruments went down

vey was practically complete. Fellows had
chosen two tunnel sites, and the records
were safe in ollskin wrappings next his
body. They struggled on, starved and ex-
hausted, and reached the Devils Slide the
sole exit from the canon, two days later,
more dead than alive, In three hours they
scarcely know how, they reached the top
and collapsed into the arms of the re-
lief party.

The Lesson.
David Livingstone was born March 49,
1913, in Blantyre, Scotland. His parents
were poor but industrious, and while the
home was bare of all Injuries, and many
necessities had to be worked hard for, there
was happiness and love and real refinement
there. The family loved books and loved
and feared the Lord, and perhaps there
could have been no better upbringing for
Africa's future explorer than this hard
working, keen, loving, self-denying earnest
father and mother gave to their children
At ten David worked in a factory to help
out the family earnings. The first half
crown he ever earned he laid in his moth
er's lap, and with part of his first week s
wages he bought Ruddiman's Rudiments
of Latin and began to study that language
working sometimes till ~ o'clock at night
till his mother would take his books away.
