REVIEW OF THE MARKET BY THE NORTH
WESTERN HIDE & FUR co,

The hide market has strengthened The poor
condition of the average run of hides retarded
the rise here, but the situation is improving:
still, those who buy in the country do not get
often nothing but hide and hare, dirt or Of
fal on them, and perfectly cured; while most
of the receipts here only half-cured and
far from being clean or properly trimmed.
Receipts of furs for the time of year are
quite large. The average quality is poor, but
some choice lots coming in from the far
north. Muskrats are 1c each lower, No furs
should cease trapping, even for muskrats. Che
law Is effective May 1, and they should cease
for that reason, if not because Of quality. Minks
10 per cent lower; skunks per cent lower.
The wool market is not fully settled and
will not be for u few weeks. Buyers are talk
ing of 25c in CARROTS to dealers. - We hear of no
running around and contracting as last year.

About the Reunion Bureau
There will be many northwesterners
who would like to avail themselves Of
the privilege of registration who have
not yet selected their stopping places
in Minneapolis and will not do so until
the last minute. The plan here offered
provides that even these may receive
valued. service by sending in their cou-
pons at once, indicating that when they
do select their Minneapolis hotel or
boarding house they will register the
address with The Journals Re-

will be placed on record and as the pub
lished list of names will indicate this.

formation they lack upon their arrival
in the city.
Send in the Coupons at. Once
Those wishing osavail themselves of
the service Of the Reunion Bureau are
urged to send in their names and adj

tion and classification will be heavy.
Remember that the whole idea is only
that while you are here your friends
will know where to look for you. There
are thousands of people coming who
want to see thousands of people who
are here and talk over the old times for
a little while. Such meetings are among
the p1easantest events in life-they
show that one. is not forgotten by the
old friends in the old home; and they
enable old acquaintance to check up
their experiences in a way that may be

Foiled in Attempt to Take
Life Of Woman, Tenstrike
Man Shoots Self.
SENT BULLET CRASHING INTO
BRAIN.
Trouble Last Night Led Up to
Suicide, Which Occurred
This Morning.

George Wilson, we'll known
character about Tenstrike, COM
mitted suicide in tnat village at
5 o'clock this morning after fail
ing in an attempt to take the life
of a woman inmate of Grace
Martins resort. A bullet from
a SO caliber revolver caused the
death of Wilson, who died almost
instantly.
The circumstances leading up
to the suicide are not fully
known, but information of a re-
liable nature is to the effect that
Wilson had trouble with a woman
who makes her home in the re-
sort, the trouble starting last
night and continuing until this
morning, when Wilson, enraged
as result of the trouble, left the
resort and went to the hotel
Richards, where he secured a
revolver lying on the back bar
which had been left with the
clerk the evening previous by H.
J, Betting, a guest at the hotel.
He returned to the resort and
upon perceiving the woman he
began firing upon her, shooting
twice, neither of the bullets tax
ing effect. The woman made her
escape from the resort.
After the woman had left the
resort Wilson turned the weapon
upou himself, and, placing the re-
yolver under his chin, fired, the
bullet passing through his brain
and emerging from the top of
the skull. Death was almost in
stan taneous.
The authorities in Bemidji
were notified and Coroner Mar
cum and County Attorney Nc
Donald will make an investiga-
ton of the affair.
Wilson was about 30 years Of
age and has lived at Tenstrike
for some time past, being en-
ployed as bartender. It is not
known whether or not he has any
living relatives.
