ICE ON LAKE SUPERIOR.
Dealers May Yet Have Chance to Har.
vest Supply for Next Summer.

Are the ice companies going to get
a crop of CONCEALED water off Lake
Superior for use in Duluth next sum-
mer. This is March Is, and the pros
poets seem more favorable than at any
time since the beginning of winter.
Geo: Disch Of the Marshall-Wells
Hardware company stated today that
wagers were made March 9 that the
ice companies would be harvesting
their commodity opposite the city be-
fore the navigation season Of 1906
opened, and it is yet too early for any
body to remark that the persons who
stand to lose if the ice crop is a COM
plete failure were easy. On March 9
there was little float ice in sight,
and yesterday the ice field extended far
in an apparently unbroken sheet.
There was good icemaking weather
last night and all that is needed is
more of it, together with reasonably
quiet wind conditions, to make an ice
field thick enough for commercial pur-
opses in short order. Ice on Lake Su-
perior makes fast any time after Feb.
Is if the wind will give it chance,
and the temperature is cold enough.

pecially in the Red Lake river, the lat
est being one that is in the way of con-
struction by beavers about three miles
up the river from GENTLY bridges.
Beavers have not been seen in this
section of the country for years before
and the colony that immigrated there
this winter and have been on the still
work ever since have caused no little
sensation among the farmers in that
section.
They have already felled trees in
sections where they are very thick,
clearing place nearly as large as the
average town block, leaving not
stick on that area. The trees are first
felled in the direction nearest the river
and are then cut into pieces about the
length of ordinary stove wood. Those
who have watched the operations Of
the little animals state that every
thing Is done in a most systematic
manner, each animal having his work
to perform. After the trees are cut
up they are then rolled up over the
tail onto their back and carried under
the water, where they are placed in
the framework of the dam. After the
frame work has been constructed it is
then made water tight by plastering
mud in the crevices, using the tail as
tool for this work. The work is we'll
advanced in the construction and will
undoubtedly be finished by the time
the ice leaves the river in the spring.

HEARING ON April. 6.
Friends and Enemies of Proposed Ju.
dicial Ditch No. 5 Can Get Their
Arguments In Shape.

The hearing on the proposed judi
cial ditch No. 5 will be held at Erskine
on Friday, April 6, at which time all
in favor or against the construction
of the proposed new waterway are
invited to appear and set forth their
ideas.
The engineers and viewers appoint
ed on the work have reported to Judge
Watts the result of their work, and it
is thought that the hearing at Erskine
will result favorably for the friends
of the waterway, although the oppo-
sition is supposed to be quite strong.
The proposed ditch starts at point
in a lake in section 3-147-42, Polk
county, and runs in north and west
erly direction finally emptying into
Terrebonne ditch No. 2 at it's source,
and widening out of tile old ditch to a
point where it is figured that Terre-
bonnie ditch has sufficient capacity to
carry off the water that will be emp
tied into it. 1t is said that the new
waterway will be a fine thing for a
greater portion of the land that it
passes through, but that the opposi-
ton at the western part of the route
is sufficient to keep it from going
through. If the opposition cannot
muster force enough at the hearing,
however, to make their claims appear
strong enough to Judge Watts it IS
more than likely that the ditch will he
ordered.

COARSE WORK.
Young Red Lake Man Does Stealing
Stunt That Would Make an ANA.
teur Blush.

Warren Sheaf: For seventeen
year-old, William Frenske is becoming
quite an adept at purloining property,
and his latest escapade happened Sun
day night. He broke into Joseph
Ducharme's barn near Badger, hitched
a team of horses to pair of hobs and
drove to a near neighbors and put on
a good-sized load of oats. He arrived
at Dugdale bright and early Monday
morning and sold the grain at an ele-
vator, receiving about $2S therefor.
He then started for North Dakota, but
was overtaken three miles southwest
of GENTLY by Sheriff Linnihan and
brought to the Red Lake county Jail.
Frenske has been guilty of theft
several times before, and is now On
parole from the state reform school.
AS paroled prisoner he is not subject
to further prosecution until the ex-
piration of his sentence, and it is likely
the authorities from st. Cloud will he
here in a few days to take him back
to the school.
Frenske appears to have the GRIM
inal instinct well developed, and so far
the attempts to reform him have been
unsuccessful.

GASOLINE EXPLOSION.
Crookston Dye Works Has Gasolene
Expl0sfOn-Joseph Mackhoif
Suffers Horrible Burns.

Crookston Journal: At ten minutes
of four this afternoon the Crookston
fire department was called out to a fire
at the Crookston Dye Works one of
the most terrible in its results of the
winter.
Joseph Mackhoff, the proprietor Of
the dye works, was busy ironing
clothes in the back room of the con-
Germ when without warning the gas
oline stove exploded and shattered the
burning fluid all over him. He is ter
ribly burned and at some places the
flesh is torn by flying glass splinters
which entered deep into his flesh. I'M
mediately after the explosion he rush.
ed upstairs and seized his small child
and hugging it to his breast ran down
the stairs. Then he ran up the street
to Wallace's Drug store to the horror
of bystanders and passersby.
The fire department Immediately
gained control of the flames, though
after much destruction to the interior.

4 Courteous Agent,

One of the most courteous and
obliging men in the employ of the
N. P. is Agent McNichol. While re-
porter was strolling about the depot
the other day, an old lady entered the
waiting room. The agent did not
wait for her to pound in closed win
dow to ask for information, but went
to her and asked if there was any
thing he could do to assist her. He
gave such information as she wanted
and assisted her to get her baggage
arranged. This is merely one of many
instances of the same kind.

G. A. Most Vivid and
Interesting.

Last evening at the Y. M. c. A. prac-

cred his lecture on the city of Jeru-
salem. Mr.. Griffith visited the Holy
Land two years ago this coming sum-
mer and made most careful study
of 1t, and particularly of Jerusalem.
His well-known keenness of observa-
ton and abundance of common sense
made the lecture of peculiar interest.

opportunity is afforded of hearing a
practical business man tell of his i'm
pressions of the most historic spot
on earth.
While it is called 1.-THE City of
Peace" that being the literal trans
lation of Jerusalem, it is misnomer,
owing to the fact that 1t has been
captured or destroyed some ~ times.
1t is one of the Oldest cities on earth,
having been mentioned before the time
of Moses in biblical history. 1t has
been captured and recaptured by both
Pagans and Christians, but in 1914 it
passed under the control of the Mos
lens and has remained there since.
It is situated on limestone ridge,
surrounded on three sides by deep
ravines. The walls are but two and
half miles long and less than 40 feet
high, being some two or three feet at
the top. There are no meats of any
extent and the gates do not have draw
bridges. The present walls were built
about 1900 A. D.
The city has no street lights and
today and has population of about
10000 people. OF these 10000 are
Jews, 10000 are Moslems, 1000 Ar
menians and 5000 Christians.
The cit yhas no street lights and
everybody goes to bed at .nightfall.
There is no waterworks, the supply of
water coming from reservoirs and els
terms, stored up during the rainy sea-
son. trains there from May to Octo-
Der. There is plenty of rainfall and
Mr.. Griffith believes, l., that the, land
would be very fertile if 1t was under
the government of either the United
States or England. AT the present
time the government is very bad and
the people are discouraged and hope
less. He believes that they are not
naturally beggars or even shiftless,
but have no chance and have simply
quit trying.
Mr.. Griffith gave vivid descriptions
Of the Mosque Of Omar, on the site
Of Soloman's temple, the Church Of
the Holy Sepulcher, Solomon's sta
bles, Mount of Olives, etc. He was not
impressed with the relics of some #
the sacred places, as they seemed to
be marts of trade and bargaining
rather than holy places.
It was decided by unanimous vote
to have Mr.. Griffith make his second
talk in two weeks one of travel in
stead of along commercial lines. He
will probably talk of Egypt, the Isle
of Malta and other places a little out
of the beaten path of travel.

DeRemer Case Yet On.

The case of the Grand Forks board
of education VS.. j. Bell DeRemer IS
yet on In the district court. 1t was
expected that the case would have
been concluded last evening or this
morning, but it is dragging out to un-
expected length. 1t will take por-
ton of tomorrow to finish the case.
From the testimony it looks as II the
outcome was much in doubt, Architect
DeRemer making good witness, and
there seems to be two sides to the
case.
