ON MARKET TO PURCHASE
Lots Are Located in Most Desirable
Portion of Property on Lake
Bemidj.

The members of the Chautauqua
Beach Association will Immediately
place lots in the plated portion of
the Beach on the market for sale and
it is possible that these very desir-
able locations for summer homes will
be speedily disposed of.
A meeting of the directors of the
association was held last evening at
which it was decided to at once be-
gin sale of lots. ST.
A. G.. Rutledge of this city was
elected president of the association
to succeed A. A. Carter, resigned.
The matter of choosing lots was
settled by vote of the directors and
it was decided to improve the prop.
erty and advertise the desirability of
the lots.
The Chautauqua Beach Associa-
ton owns fitty-one acres of very
desirable land bordering on the
northwest shore of Lake Bemidji.
This property adjoins the premises
of F. A. Mayo on the north and A.
Clavin on the south. 1t is the first
plated high ground rorth of Grand
Forks Bay and is located in the
the northwest arm of the lake, where
there is a bay which is always pro.
tected from the winds which sweep
over the lake.
The beach is sandy and very
prettily located. The very best fish.
Ing grounds are but few feet from
the shore of this property.
Several people living at Grand
Forks, N. D. have made requests fol-
lots and no doubt as soon as the
property is placed on the market ii
will be speedily sold to persons
desiring locations for summer homes,

LOCAL FAST HORSES ARE
GOING fine IN WORKOUT
Horses at the Bemldji Track Are Be-
ing Put Into Shape for the
Races.

The race track at the fair
grounds presents an animated scene
these days, with the horsemen OF
this city conditioning their steppers
and putting them through some
fast miles.
Most any forenoon visitor to
the track can see some real inter.
esting brushes and miles reeled of
inside the 2:3O mark.
Bill" Begsley, who is up behind
Prince Hal this season, has got the
grand PAGER in an excellent con.
dition. Hap has logged several
miles close to 2:2O and is impa.
tient to 60 much faster. He is
one of the most gentle horses
that hauls a bike on the race
track in the country and is very
easily handled. He is a willing
worker, has an excellent temper
and is easily put into condition. In
fact, he is working fine right now
and would be ready for a bruising
race tomorrow.
Thomas Newly has been doing
some fine work with his splendid
little mare, Bessie Barolite," record
2:21H. She is also going very fast
for this time of the year. Mr.. New.
by also has Brownie and Doris,
horses which will go in the slow
races.
Dan Fullerton will probably drive
Bemidji Belle in the races this year.
The little pacing mare was never in
better condition. Her present
record is 2:27A: and it is predicted
that she will pace close to the 2:20
mark this season.
Prince Hal and Bessie Barolite
were put through three fast heats,
yesterday, Bessie taking the pole
with Prince Hal on the outside.
These conditions made the heats
very pretty ones and both horses are
working fast, considering the early
season of the year.
Thomas Newly left last night for
Fargo where he will consult the
horsemen who are racing in that city
and induce a number Of them to
make entries for the races here on
June 20 and Fl, when Bemidii will
undoubtedly have some very good
contests of speed.

CLOQUET HAS MEET next
YEAR; ALEXANDRIA 1910
State Firemen's Association Will Not
Meet in Bemidji.- Local Dele
gates Not in II.

Mankato, June l2-The next Con-
vention of the Minnesota State Fire
Department association will be held
at Cloquet. This was first decided
two years ago, when it's fire chief
was elected second vice president,
but since then he has been let out of
his Office at Cloquet and a move
was started yesterday to pass the
town by and have the next conven-
ton at Alexandria.
A fever heat was reached when
the contest was on yesterday after
noon and many speeches and pleas
were made on the relative claims of
the two cities. After half an hour
of roll calling it was found the
ballot stoodI 800 for Chief Charles
Wendall of Cloquet for president
and "a for Chief L. S. Kent of Alex
andria. This decided it for Cloquet.
The suggestion to hold future con-
ventions in towns of not less than
5000 was coldly received.
Kent was chosen first vice presi-
dent, and the 1910 convention goes
to Alexandria. E. M. Twiford, Owa-
onna, was chosen second vice presl-
dent, and the latter city gets the
convention in 1911. The candidates
were Hibbing, St. Peter and Fair
mont. Twiford received 1873 votes
or three less than needed for choice.
All other candidates withdrew in his
favor and made his election unani-
nous.
Chief ]. r. anterbury, Minneapo.
lis, was chosen third vice president.
Capt. D. L. Kane, Minneapolis, re-
elected secretary, Andrew Myler, St.
Paul, reelected statistican.
Delegates Earl Cell, Bemidji, G..
w. Cotterell, Luverne.
Judging from the above, it would
appear that Bemidji delegation of
fremen who went to Mankato to
try and get some future meeting
of the state fremen for this city,
had not been very successful in
bringing the name of Bemidji to
the front, as has also been the
case at past conventions. A few
leather-lunged war horses who have.
had the experiences in getting con-
ventions should 90 along with the
boys and do the 'rooting.' This
might bring about desired results.

THOUGHT CHILD WOULD DIE.
-Cuticura Remedies Cured at Cost
of Seventy-Eive Cents.

my little boy, when only an infant
Of three months, caught the Cuban
Itch. Sores broke out from his head
to the bottom of his feet. He would
itch and claw himself and cry all the
time. He could not sleep day or night,
and light dress is all he could wear.
l called one of our best doctors to
treat him, but he seemed to get worse.
He suffered so terribly that my hus-
band said he believed he would have
to die. l had almost given up hope
when lady friend told me to try the
Cuticura Remedies. l used the Cuti-
cura Soap and applied the Cuticura
Ointment and he at once fell into a
sleep, and he slept with ease for the
first time since two months. After
three applications the sores began to
dry up, and in just two weeks from the
day I commenced to use the Cuticura
Remedies my baby was entirely well.
The treatment only cost 75c, and l
would have gladly paid 500 if l could
not have got it cheaper. l feel safe in
saying that the Cuticura Remedies
saved his life. He is now boy of five
years. Mrs. Zana Miller, Union City,

ONE CAUSE FOR SATISFACTION.
Drummer Found Something Good
Even in Railroad Accident.

A state senator of New York says he
was riding in the smoking car on a
little one-track road in the northern
part of the state two weeks ago, and
in the seat in front of him sat jew
elry drummer. He was one. of those
wide-awake, never-let-anyone-get-the-
better-of-him style of men. Presently
the train stopped to take water and
the conductor neglected to send back
flagman. A limited express. running
at the rate of ten miles an hour, came
along and bumped the rear end of the
first train. The drummer was lifted
from his seat and pitched, head first,
against the seat ahead. His silk hat
was damned clear down over his ears.
He picked himself up and settled back
in his seat. No bones had been
broken. Then he pulled off his hat,
drew long breath and, Strengthening
up, said: "Hully gee! Well, they didn't
get by us, anyway"

er, where a new system of water
works had just been installed. All
the drinking water for the town was
pumped in from an artesian well on
the outskirts. The inhabitants were
immensely proud of their new water,
and at every place / stopped l was
urged to take drink of it, being as
sured at, the same time with great i'm
pressiveness that it had been analysed
and found to be half hydrogen This
mystic expression seemed to have a
strange fascination for most of the
citizens.
Finally l stopped at the town
pump in the middle of the square in
front of the county courthouse, and as
l worked the pump handle / thought

ENABLING SUPERVISORS TO CARE
FOR PEOPLE ADDICTED TO
DRINK OR DRUG HABITS.

1t has long been an established fact
that Morphine, d4audanum, Cocaine,
Choral, Tobacco and Liquor Habits
are disease, and hundreds of people
who have heretofore been unable to
get relief can now petition the Board
of Supervisors of their home county
and be assisted in taking treatment
under Act. No. 6S of '07, and be
given chance to reimburse the coun-
ty after being cured.
The most successful and reliable
institute for the treatment of this
ailment is located at Grand Rapids,
