MISSING SHEPHERD BOY
FOUND LATE YESTERDAY
With All Appearance of Resting Peacefully the Corpse Of
Nickie Shepherd Was Discovered Yesterday After.
noon By F. c. Klingbeil

With his little features as calm
as if he had just LAID down to
take nap in his cradle, "Nickie, "
the 3.year-old son of John
Shepherd of Solway, was found
yesterday afternoon in swamp,
three-fourths of a mile from his
home, which is two and one-haIf
miles east of Solway, his little
body long since cold in death.
The boy was lost Friday of last
week, and despite exposure to
wind and rain, the child's face
was very life-like and the express
sion of countenance did not indi-
cate that there had been much
suffering before death.
The body of the missing boy
was found by Frank Klingbeil, a
farmer living about eight miles
north of Solway. Mr.. Klingbeil
had not participated in any of the
searches made by the losses,
and only heard Thursday that
the child had been missing and
that reward of $10O had been
offered for the recovery of the
body, dead or alive. He went to
the Shepherd home yesterday
noon and accompanied by a
Llewellian setter dog, began a
solitary search of the premises.
Klingbeil covered every foot of
the swamp and high ground to
the south of the house and finally
went down an old trail and into
the swamp. He and the dog
finally came to small bunch of
grass where, lying with one side
of the head and face partially
covered in a water hole of the
swamp, was found sthe body of
'sNickie" Shepherd. The body
lay with the face upward, indi.
eating that the boy had fallen
backward and had not moved
after striking the ground.

child had been scram bling about,
and it is believed that the little tot
wandered away from the house,
going down the trail to the
swamp, and after going in the
swamp for a distance of about
three.quarters of mile, became
exhausted and fell backward, be.
ing unable to 60 farther, and
perished without being able to
help himself.
The finding of the body clears
up what had every indication of
being an unsolvable mystery, as
diligent search every day for the
past seven days failed to locate
any clue as to the whereabouts
of the missing child.
When the parents of the child
were told of the finding of the
body, the father collapsed and
was revived with difficulty, while
the mother was almost pros
trated.
The search for the child has
been participated in by nearly
every able bodied man in Solway,
Shevlin, Bagley and Wilton and
a number from Bemldji, and the
easy manner in which the body
was recovered yesterday was a
surprise to everyone.
The reward of one hundred
dollars will be paid to Frank G.
Kingbeil as soon as he presarts
the necessary affidavit from the
father of the boy.

For a short time the building

was consumed so fast that the
frame fell a short time after the
water was turned on.
How the fire started is a mys-
terry. The barn is used for the

tel, and the buss driver had left
there an hour before to make the
midnight train, which was late.
The building was lighted with
electric lights and the buss driv-

is estimated at $500, partially
covered with insurance.

LITTLE minnie MILES DIES
AT $50 THIS MORNING
After A Battle of Six Weeks, She Final.
Iy Gives Up Life's Struggles
Funeral Tomorrow.

Died, at the home of her par.
ents, Mr.. and Mrs. W. J. Miles,
this forenoon at $50, their little
daughter, Minnie, aged six years,
four months and four days.
The funeral services will be
held at three o'clock tomorrow
afternoon from the family resi-
dence, 913 Bemidji Avenue, and
will be conducted by Rev. Tho
mas Broomfeld, of the Baptist
church. "
The little girl was taken sick
April 2I, with severe attack
of spinal meningitis, and despite
her heroic effort the past six
weeks. she could not rally and
finally gave up the struggle, and
this morning fell "Asleep in Je.
sus." i
Bright, happy and cheerful,
the little one always carried a
smile and a welcome wherever
she went. To gaze at the little
face is but to fill one's heart with
sympathy for the bereaved fa-
mily.
But we must not think of her
as one that is dead, but as one
that is living, not as a flower that
has withered-but as one that
has been transplanted and touch
ed by a devine hand in blooming
in richer color and a sweeter
fragrance than those on earth.

The commencement exercises
of the class of 1907, Bemidi
high school, held at the City
opera house last evening, were
accorded a capacity attendance
The hall was most beautifully
and artistically decorated in the
class colors, turq uoise and maize,
while the proscenium was illumi
mated with the class motto "In
Limine" in the same color com.
bination.
The opening mum ber of the
program "Voices Of the Woods"
by chorus of seventeen voices,
was of exceptional merit and was
we'll received.
The invocation which followed
was an eloquent appeal by Rev.
Peart in which he asked that the
blessing of the Almighty be con
ferred upon the schools, the
board of education, the faculty
and on the class of 1907 and all
future classes, that their pros
poets might be bright and their
am bitiOnS crowned with SuccpSs
and happiness, and that each in
dividual might attain to a posi-
tion to which the schools and city
might point with pride.
The salutatcry by Miss Iuez
Woodruff, subject, "The negro"
was we'll delivered and showed
a careful study of the race PROB,
lem now confronting the south
ern states. The conditions dur
ing slavery days and the reac-
tionary results of abolition were
pointed out and careful resume
of the conditions up to the pre-.
sent time rendered. The speaker
advising action by the country
at large for the remedying Of a
condition brought about in the
interests of mankind and the
cause of advancement. Miss
Woodruff's diction was clear and
her delivery excellent, and the
number accorded to her altoget-
her 9 credita able one.
"The Modern Nestor," the
subject Of the GRAFTON by Miss
Shirley Knox, presented the life
of Napoleon Bonaparte and the
conditions which resulted in his
ascendancy to the throne of an
empire. The word picture drawn
by Miss Knox carried the audi
ence through the career of the
little Corsican, with it's victories
and reverses, and presented ex-
cuses for his many shortcom-
ings, showing the man as he un,
dou btedly would have been had
he lived in an age and under conai'
tions that would have permitted.

agination in which she pictured
conditions as they might and un-
dou btedly would exist should the
light be obliterated for all time.
Miss Woodruff pointed out the
inspiration received and evolution
resulting from the different
natural lights, commencing with
the early sun-worship, and it's
gradual development into the
study Of astronomy. The speaker
also dwelt on the power Of educa-
tional light and the factor 1t has
been in the advancement and
happiness of the people of the
world.
A vocal trio "s'weet May" was
delivered by Misses Shirley
Knox, Ida Brown and Nellie
Shannon and was heartily ap-
plauded.

The valedictory, "Heroism,"
by Miss Bernice Pendergast pre-
sented a review of heroic acts of
history and the speaker defined
hero as one who works for the
good of humanity, not a destroyer
or builder of nations. She gave
many little examples of latter
day heroism during pestilence
and catastrophe in explanation
Of her definition. Closing her
address Miss Pendergast ex-
pressed the appreciation Of the
class for the efforts of the board
Of education and faculty and the
advantages at the disposal of the
