A man in New York state who owns
several fine cats stepped out of his
house one day to see two of his feline
possessions crouched in the grass, and
eQuidistant between them sat com.

Of escape between the two The man
walked on toward the squirrel, and
when he came within jumping distance
the squirrel seized his opportunity and
leaped upon the mans trousers and
ran nimbly to his shoulder Then the
man backed slowly toward tree at
no great distance from him. Again
when within leaping distance the
squirrel jumped into the tree and dis.

Many Bemidji people find that
bad weather brings on a dull pain
in the back, or rheumatic aching,
neuralgia, nervousness, irritability
and weakness. If, when you get or
take cold, it settles on the Kidneys"
and there is shivery, chilly sensa-
ton in the back, it shows kidney
weakness, which is often the begin
ming of disease. Doan's Kidney
Pills should be used persistently
until the chilly feeling is gone, and
the flow of urine is natural. Doan's
Kidney Pills have saved Bemidji
people much suffering.

 Able committees have been appointed to take care of the crowd after the park Is reached, and no one will be burdened with speeches or declamations of any kind. The old veterans will sit around the campfire again and tell stories of the war as they see fit, but no set programme has been fixed.

M'ANALLY HELD
 UNTIL TOMORROW
Coroner Is Unwilling to Release Him Without Submitting Evidence
 to the Solicitor.

Luther McAnally, the young man who shot and killed J. T. Burroughs in the Alice furnace yards Wednesday night, be- lievng him to be brass thief, was given a hearing by Coroner Paris yesterday morning, and after hearing the evidence the coroner decided to hold the young man over until Saturday morning at 9:30 O clock In order to have time to go over the evidence with Solicitor Heflin.
 There were no eye witnesses to the fatal shooting, and the evidence heard yester- day In regard to the death of Burroughs was necessarily based on McAnally's own statement While it is very probable that McAnally shot Burroughs unaware that he was his friend and perfectly innocent of the act which he thought the man was performing, the coroner states that ne believes the young man acted rather has tily, and he is unwilling to release him on his own statement without first going over the evidence with the solicitor.
 The case will come up again Saturday morning at 9:30 o'clock. when McAnally will either be held or released on orders from Coroner Paris. In the meantime he is being detained at the county Jail with out bond.

QUIT WHITE BREAD. Could Not Get Strength From It..

A York state minister, who is interested not only in the spiritual welfare of hl5 congregation, but in their physical we'll being. says:
 "I can now do an immense amount of work and feel no fatigue, for the reason that I am using Grape-Nuts food and have quit coffee entirely and an using Postum Food Coffee In it's place
 Myself and family are all greatly im- proved In health. We have largely aban- doned the use of white bread. Upwards of twenty-five persons have changed their diet on my recommendation. It is gladly given. because I know from personal ex- perience, whereof l speak"
 It Is d well-known fact that white bread is almost entirely composed of starch and this is difficult of digestion by many peo- pie particularly those who have weak in- testinal digestion. The result of the use of much white bread is lack of brain and nervous power to do mental work and 1t also creates intestinal troubles, because the excess of starch ferments in the in testines and makes the condition right for the growth of microbes; whereas Grape Nuts food contains the needed starch, but in a predigested form. That is, it is trans formed into grape-sugar in the process of manufacture, and delivered in the pack ages ready cooked. and in such shape that 1t is immediately assimilated with out hard work of the digestive organs.
 The food also contains the delicate par tlcles of phosphate of potash which, com bined with albumen. is used by Nature to make the gray matter in the cells of the brain and the nerve centers through out the body. in order to give strength and ability to stand long and continuous work.

GRAYMONT NAMES
 SOME OFFICERS
MASS MEETING OF CITIZENS GOES ON RECORD AS OPPOSED TO REFERENDUM FEATURE OF GREATER BIRMINGHAM.

The citizens of Graymont held a mass meeting in the public school house at Smithfeld last night and candidates for Mayor and Board of Aldermen were nom mated. The old ticket. that is, that of the first election, was without exception re-nominated, and although the vote was taAen singly, the nominations were unan- imous.
 w. 4. Lester was nominated for mayor, and for aldermen T. O. Smith was nom mated from the First ward, T. M. Dyer, Second ward; William Lynn, Third ward; J. H. Adams, Fourth ward, and William Love. Fifth ward
 After nominations for the various of- fees had been voted on, the citizens took up the discussion of the Greater Bir- mingham bill, and with two exceptions the bill was unanimously opposed, on account of the referendum clause. The failure to endorse the bill did not come as a surprise to the meeting.
 Graymont, 1t will be remembered. voted sometime ago to incorporate itself and the incorporated was effected, but upon an examination of the petition to the probate judge it was found that quite number of the petitioners were not quali- fled voters, and the town was therefore declared illegal on the grounds set forth. The case attracted no little attention in the courts.
