Meeting Will Be Held at
Council Rooms Wednesday
for That Purpose.
PROPOSE TO BUILD NEW BOAT
HOUSE.
Proposition Will Come Up For
Discussion ion at at the b , Meeting
Wednesday.

A meeting of boat owners and
all others interested in the or
ganization of boat CLUB in Be
midi will be held Wednesday
evening at the council rooms in
the city hall.
The meeting is called by II. E.
Reynolds, who has been active in
attempting to form club of this
description and who has secured
the signatures of a large mum Der
of citizens of the city who have
signified their willingness to be-
come members.
One of the principal objects of
the meeting, however, is to dis
cuss ways and means for the
building of large boat house on
the shore of Lake Bemidji at the
east end of Fourth street. This
proposition has been agitated
for some time by Mr.. Reynolds,
who secured plans for the build
ing and also induced a number of
boat owners to subscribe toward
a fund with which the boat house
will be constructed. In fact. the
amount OF money already sub
scribed for the venture is enough
to carry the scheme to completion
providing none of those who
signed the subscription list "gig
back.
The boat house will be operated
on mutual plan and the mem
bers of the clu b will have manage
ment of the affair. Stalls will be
rented for a certain amount dur
ing the SUM mer and it is believed
that under this plan the affair
will be paying investment.

Serious Cutting ARRAY Oc-
CURED at Kelliher Sat
urday Night.
CHRIST OLSON HURT WHILE.
TRYING TO STOP. FIGHT.
John Sparks OF. Nym0re Stabbed
in. Neck Sta bier is linden
Arrest.

A sta bling ARRAY in which one
man was perhaps fatally injured
and another quite seriously hurt
occurred at Kelliher Saturday
night when Tony Carlson, a
woodsman, used a knife upon the
persons of John Sparks of Ny
more and Christ Olson of Be
midi. Sparks received a wound
on the neck, several inches long
and it is stated that his condition
vas critical last night at the
Kelliher hospital, where he was
taken. Mr.. Olson was cut on the
thigh and he was also taken to
the Kelliher hospital, where he
is yet held. 800 s
Several stories are told of the
affair, but the correct version
seems to be that Tony Carlson,
the man who did the stabbing,
after filing himself up with
liquor, went into the saloon Of
J. G. Gibson. He was accom-.
panied by his partner, named
Espe. The latter claims that he
was standing at the bar when
Sparks came up and showed him
away. A fight followed and
Carlson interfered, and, drawing
a knife, slashed Sparks on the
neck. Mr.. Olson, who was in
the saloon at the time, attempted
to stop the fight when Carlson
turned upon him and attacked
him with the knife, cutting an
ugly cash in his thigh. Other
men in the saloon crowded around
and soon stopped the fight.
Carlson and Espe were placed
under arrest Immediately after
the affair and are held at the
Kelliher Jail. It's probable that
no charge will be placed against
them until it is known whether
or not Sparks will recover.
