OUTSIDE TOWNS
APPEAL FOR ICE
CrOOkStOn and Other Cities Are
|: Threatened by an Ice
Famine. ..

Crookston and other towns
throughout the north half of the
state are threatened with ice
famines, the supply of CONCEALED
acqua pura being at the mini.
mum limit in those places.
G. E. Carson, of the Bemid il
Ice company, has received
appeal from outside ice dealers,
offering him high prices for
supplies of ice, but Mr.. Carson
has refused to dispose of any he
has in store. While there is no
danger of shortage in Bemidji,
no chances will be taken by the
local dealer in supplying the peo-
pie of Bemidji with ice during
the balance of tho year.
Relative to the matter, Mr..
Carson says:
'We have plenty of ice, but
none to spare. We can supply
the local demand but no more"

SAW MOOSE AS
TAME AS COWS
A. A. Warfield and Brother John.
Made Interesting Trip in
St. Louis County.

A. A. Warfield has returned
from a trip to his claim, in Town
ship IS, range II, fifty miles
north of Tower, Mimi. He was
accompanied by his brother,
John Warfield of Princeton, Ill.
They engaged a rowboat at Tow
err, put a gasoline engine in the
craft and made the entire trip
by boat.
Andrew asserts that moose,
up in that country, are as tame
as "moolley cows" He saw
three and was fearful lest they
would swim into the stream and
elm into his boat.
The country Whereabouts is so
densely wooded and swampy
thatit is next to impossible to
get anything out and the moose
have not been disturbed. It is
not uncommon to see three or
four of the big fellows eating
from the banks or standing in
the river.

SKEPTICS, GO
SEE POOR FARM
Thirty Acres, BlOssOming as the
Rose, Show Value of Bel
trami Land.

A visit to the county poor farm
will illustrate to anyone who be-
lieves that the so called jackpine
land is not fit for agriculture that
he knows not whereof he speaks.
There are thirty acres of land
cleared and under cultivation at
the farm, twelve acres being
sown to oats, thirteen acres to
fodder corn, and there is a five
acre garden. The oats are thriv-
ing finely, and the field is prob
ably chest in the entire county.
The heads are we'll filled, the
kernel is plump and sound and
the stalk is long and well
matured. The crop Is beginning
to turn yellow. and will soon be
ready for the harvester. The
fodder corn is coming along
nicely and gives promise of being
an abundant crop. while the
garden is the apple of Supt.
Phillippi's eye. Nearly every
variety of vegetable known to the
gardener is here in abundance.

time the boy haze been more or
less adrift, associating with
rough companions and adopting
their ways of living.
It appears that he had been
quite a heavy drinker of late, and
the habit was growing on him.
He was at one time confined to
the st. Anthony hospital, and
was given medical treatment by
DR.. Smith. He has an aunt living
in Bemidji, Mrs. J. Case.

Harvey Woodward, who is now
at Ardmore, Indian Territory.
has sent to his parents, Mr.. and
Mrs, G. G. Woodward, a con-
federate flag, and in a letter:
accompanying the flag, he says
that the EN- blem is still NJ UGH in
evidence down there, and con-
tinues:
"You can scarcely see the
United States flag here at all, so
you will see that the people of the
South have not yet forgotten the
fact that they had a battle once
upon a time. I was very much
surprised to see how the people
here still stuck to theconfederate
flag. 1t is very noticeable to

The Grafton Record says of
the carnival held at Grafton July

ably the high dive, leap the gap
and the bicycle riding in the cage
of death were fine attractions.
The latter especially is probably
the best feature of the carnival
Two bicycle riders perform the
feat of riding around and up the
inside of large wooden cage in
spite of the laws of gravitation.
The balloon ascensions once a
day came off as advertised. The
! Ferris Wheel, merry-go.ro round
and tent shows attracted quite
large crowds both day and even

Wednesday would probably have
brought a large crowd.
There were two contestants for
queen of the carnival. Miss
Jessie Mclean. and Miss Helen

with a vote of 1874. Miss Hall
bringing in 1851 votes. Miss

BRICK BUILDING
ON NAYLOR LOT
Ground Sold to A. P. White, Who
Will Erect Structure
at Once.

A handsome brick structure of
at least two stories is to rise on
the ruins of the Naylor building,
burned a number of weeks ago.
The lot, owned by E, L. Naylor,
has been transferred to A. P.
White of Port Smith, Ark, with.
in the last few days and the new
owner plans on putting up a
building at once. Work will be-
gin as soon as the plans can be
drawn and the contract let. The
transfer price of the land was
1880.
Mr.. White has been in town
for three or four days and will.
remain until the first of next
week, which will give him time
to make full arrangements for
the structure.
"This purchase and my in.
tended further investment means
that I still have the utmost faith
in the continued growth and
prosperity of Bemidji," said Mr..
White IN speaking to the Pioneer.

but 1 still have a love for the
city, and believe that it is a good
place in which to invest money"

kansas and is doing we'll. He
was a pioneer resident of Be-
midi, and gave up his position as
cashier of the First National

Bereman and Brady Waive Ex'
animation at Preliminary Hear
ing at Northome.
ROTH MEN FURNISH BAIL
AND ARE NOW AT LIB RTY
Young Campbell. Dead Boy. Had
Led Wild Life for Several
Years.

The examination of Edison
Bereman and B. F. Brady. who
are charged with being implicat-
ed in the causes which led to the
death of Archie Campbell at
Houpt last Saturday night, was
held at Northome last evening
before Justice Duncan.
The charge preferred against
the two men is that they "killed
one Archibald Campbell, in the
heat of passion, but in a cruel
and unusual manner not under
such circumstances as to consti.
tute excusable homicide, Camp
bell, being so struck with a club
about the head in the hands of
Edison Bereman, said club being
two feet long and two inches
thick" Both men waived exam
nation and were remanded to
the custody of Deputy Sheriff O.
M. Olson, of Northome, E E.
Mcdonald was present, as
attorney for Bereman. Aad A.
Tone Of Northome, county CON-
missioner of TtaSca county. was
also present.
Brady and Bereman we're
brought to Bemidji this morning
and application was at once made
to Judge Spooner for bail for the
men, which was easily secured,
Bereman being bound over in the
sum of 1000 and Brady for $500,
and they are now at liberty and
will return to Houpt this evening.
It has been learned that a man
named McFadden was with
Archie Campbell on his travels
previous to the death of Camp
bell. At Blackjack, McFadden,
who was very intoxicated,
seconded Campbell in his row
with Station Agent Mccormick,
the latter having to summon two
men to assist him in quoting
the intoxicated men. McFadden
went to Funkley with Campbell,
but was so intoxicated that
Campbell left him there and pro-
ceeded alone to Houpt on the
passenger train that evening.
McFadden is a fugitive from
justice. A warrant has been out
for his arrest for some time on
the charge of having assaulted a
brakeman at Blackjack.
W. S. Campbell, father of
Archie Campbell, has been at
Houpt since Wednesday evening,
when he came from his home at
Rollette, N. D., and has been IN
curing into the circumstances
surrounding the death of his son.
The elder Campbell was for
several years engaged in logging
at Nary, in Hubbard county, and
other points near here, and has
several acquaintances IN Bemidji.

woods hereabouts.
