happened for years.

from the city in the sum of $50,
with which he hopes to secure
medical treatment for his eyes,
which for several years have
been almost useless. The matter
was referred to a com mittee con-
sisting of Brinkman, Graham
and McTaggart.
The sewerage committee
listened to remarks by Mr..
Clausen. an engineer of st. Paul,
and afterwards resolution was
adopted Dy Inc council to the
effect that City Engineer Nc
Gilvray of Duluth, who drew the
original plans for the Bemidji
sewer system, and a number of
other engineers, meet with Mr..
Clausen and County Surveyor
M. D. Stoner at some future date
and arrange definite plans for
the system.
The liquor license bond of
Void & Nelson with 0. J. Tagley
and A, D. Moe as sureties was
accepted. The bid Of the Be

day by A A. Warren. who has a lease on
a block of ground 900 feet west of the
tunnel on the Little Champion wien, and
another shift has been put to work. Re-
cent developments have resulted in the
opening up of a fine streak of ore below
the tunnel level and the ieaser, after
making good shipment, decided to get
busy. The shipment consisted of IS. 800
pounds of ore, the settlement assay beir &

Checks for the second dividend OF I
aceut a share were mated to the stock
holders OF the Centurion Gold Mining
company this week. The earnings of
the company have been only the royalty
received from the leasers in the property,
all of which is velvet for the company,
there being no expense attached. Wien
the property OF the Centurion is reached
through the Rock ford tunnel at an ad
di,ional depth of $40 feet. and with better
facilities for marketing the product, the
directors OF the company should have no
other pleasant duty to perform than de
clare dividends every month.
