Good Show SATURDAY..

Elmer Walters temperance
play, "A Millionaire Tramp"
which has met with much genu.
inc success during the past five
years is booked to appear at the
local opera house next Saturday.
This comedy drama has many
odd characters that appeal to the
theatre -goer. The scenes are
natural and the dialogue is said
to have been handled in an ex.
tremely clever manner by the
author. "a Millionaire Tramp
bids fair to outlive the majority
of its imitators, for the reason
that the plot Of the play appeals
alike to gallery and parquette.
Jay Pierpont, the name assigned
to IA Millionaire Tramp" has
not graduated from the ranks of
the husky vaudeville hobo he is
9 gentleman of culture whose
downfall was directly caused by
q broken heart and fast company
in which John Barley Corn
played an important part.

1t would appear that the exten
tion is an assured fact, Judging
from the following article, taken
from the Duluth News-Tribune:
The contract for extending the
line Of the Minnesota & Interna-
tional railroad from Big Falls to
International Falls was let Sat.
urday to the firm Of Doherty &
Dempsey of this city. A crew
of men under George Huss has
been taken to Big Falls to com
mence work. The extens on is
thirty.seven miles long and the
contract calls for it's completion
by July 4, 1907.
The old Minnesota & Interna-
tional survey will be followed to
Bear Creek, and from there q
new line will be established. The
new survey is to take the line
through the village of Little
Fork, which was Ignored in the
original plan.
It is said that the Little Fork

CONTRACT HAS been let
FOR EXTENDING N. & !.
Work Of Building Railroad From Big
Falls to International Falls
Begun. ....~.. ..

From time to time, recently,
the Pioneer has published
rumors concerning the proposed
extension of the Minnesota &
international railway north from
Big Falls to International Falls,
and has also given the refusal OF
officials of that road to give out
any information relative to the
plans, if any there were, other
than that they knew nothing of
any such move.

WANT COUNCIL TO PREVENT
SENDING men FROM STATE
Petition Asks for Ordinance Governing
Employment Offices.--WouId
Be Unconstitutional.

A rather remarkable petition
to the city council asking for the
passage of an ordinance forbid.
ding the granting of a license to
an employment agency that
ships men out OF Minnesota, has
been laid on the table by the
council, and will never be re-
moved.
The petition was presented 4
week ago and was held awaiting
the drafting of the ordinance by
the city attorney. Last night,
the council agreed to keep it on
the table until the city attorney
drafted the ordinance, and this
will be long, long time.
Such an ordinance is plainly
unconstitutional, and the council
would be placing itself in q
ridiculous position by passing q
law OF the kird. The petition
was circulated by local EN-.
ployment agency man, and Sc
cured mum her of signers.
The meeting last night was an
uneventful one, and little was
done outside of the routine of
business. One act of interest,
however, was the allowance of
the bill for$135.02for the recovery
and burial of the body of Henry
Buenther, the drowned taxider-
mist. This sum represented the
cost of the coffin and under.
takers fees, wages and expenses
for the men who searched Big
Trout lake for five. days in an
effort to raise the body, etc.
There was some discussion as
to whether the city has the legal
rightto pay this bill, but, as City
Attorney Russell explained, the
problem resolveds itself into one
of the city's burying its pauper
dead, as the Buenther heirs we're
and are not fnanciallv able tn
bear the expense of burial and
the recovery. The money was
ordered paid out of the poor
fund; and as there is no money
in that fund, it was ordered
borrowed from the revolving
fund and placed to the credit of
the poor fund.
1t was moved and carried to
buy twenty five cords of jackpine
wood from Tom Smart at $3.2 q
cord, for city use.

Thanksgiving Services.

The union services, wherein
the Presby terian and the Baptist
churches will unite in celebrat-
ing Thanksgiving, will be held in
the Baptist church, not in the
Presby yterian church, as previous

1890 a. m. The public is cordially
invited to attend this service,

Timely Advice.

The Evele'h News gives the
following advice on how to make
your back strong and keep in
training: 'Bend down low,
grasping a long-handled shovel
firmly in both hands, and con-
scientiously endeavor to separate
thirteen inches of wet snow from
it's embrace with the wood side
walk without breaking the shovel
handle. This exercise is said to
have transformed some very
puny men into Sandows of re.
spectability. !"

PLENTY OF CARS NOW ON

Car Shortage, Which lnterferred With

For several months, there has
been much mplaint among the
shippers of cedar poles and ties
from along the north line of the
M. & l. railway that it was i'm
possible to get cars to haul the
shipments to points off the line
of the M. & |.
The company, for some time,
had refused to furnish it's own
cars except for shipments Of

consignments along the M. & /.
or the N. P. The company has
now started to furnish it's own
l4cars aud there is q relief from
the congestion of shipments
which prevailed for several
months, and there is consequent
good feeling among the tie and
pole men in this vicinity.

3. D. Beeson, the district
manager for the Naugle company,
states that the company will get
out some 100000 poles, varying
in length from twenty to sixty
feet, all of which will be shipped
to points south of here. This
work necessitates the employ
ment of a large crew of men for
several months.
