Loss to Owners. "

Several fires have broken out DUR
ing the past two days in the different
parts of the city.
Saturday morning E. J. Swedback
lost a $50 barn by fire, next to the
Blocker hotel. Mr.. Swedback had
just purchased the house and barn
the night before from Henry Miles.
William Blocker, proprietor of the
Blocker Hotel, lost the roof and side
of his barn, containing half a ton of
hay: There was no insurance on
either the Blocker or Swedback
property.
About 2 o'clock Sunday morning
fire was discovered in the rear of the
Lakeside Bakery. The origin of the
fire is unknown. Mr.. Naylor lost
about $3.50 worth of supplies. The
damage to the building has not yet
been estimated.
This morning the steam laundry
caught fire from some unknown
scources, probably from the smoke
stack. =. The entire upper floor of the
building was practically destroyed.
The loss was about $500 to John
Graham of this city, who owns the
building, but is fully covered by
insurance. Mr.. Graham will rebuild
at once and will place carpenters at
work atomorrow morning. There
was no loss to A. E. Harris, as the

shoulders OF the committee with the
result that there were some very
narrow escapes. The pig was sold
by the committee and the money
equally divided between the two
men who claimed ownership, they
be ing much more satisfied than some
who had no license at all to interfere.
At $3.50 the ball game between
Brainerd and Bemidii took place
and a detailed report of the contest
will be found in another column of
this issue of the Pioneer.
The tug.of-war which took place
at $50 between twelve men from the
City of Bemidli and twelve men
from the lumber company, for a
purse of $24 was pulled off on Third
street and resulted in a victory for
the Bemidji boys.
At 6:45 two squads of tours from
Co. K, together With band, marched
to the courthouse for retreat"
The company fired salute of
twenty guns and while the band
played America, the national flag
was lowered from the pole and ten
derby folded and cared for and after
another salute of twenty guns the
band and company marched to the
city hall, the armory of the company.
At us occurred the launch race
with about fifteen participants. The
course was from the city dock to and
around bouys situated off Diamond
Point, each class of boats having a
different color of bouy. John F.
Gibbons came in first on the finish
with H. A. Sharf second and Col ms
third.
The swimming race, which took
place at the city dock at foot of Third
street, was a very tame event as
only two contestants were present,
Jim Carter and Raymond Kreatz,
the first money going to Kreatz.
After the program of the day was

to the city hall and participated in

Hardshell Bigotry.

The last absurd act of Hughes
OF New York is to veto the bill Civ
ing New York a five cent fare to
the peoples play ground-Couey
Island. In the hard, Grabbed creed
OF Hughes, the hundreds of thou
sands of people who grind all week
at the bitter mill OF toll should
stay cooped all day Sunday in
their hot and unwholesome tene-
ments, "praising the Lord" in
stead of getting away to Coney Is
land, where they a get a whole
some breath from the great sea.
For the poor to attempt to secure
real rest and recreation on Sunday,
is to this fellow Hughes a great
sin. The Legislature says the trac-
ton monopoly shall give the poor
of the great city a decent fare.
Hughes says no. The wicked peo-
pie should be fined for the sin, and
the sum should 60 to the traction
monopoly. Is New York disgust.
ed with what the Herald terms
such Hardshell Bigotry? tits sick
with disgust. That such q man
should allow the insurance thieves
escape, veto the two cent rate bill
and now the veto of the Coney Is
land bill giving the people five
cent fare, in contrast with his fierce
laws against gambling and his SUI
percillious pose of superior right
%eousness, is the limit. 1t is a cinch
that all bigots whose righteousness
Is SO rampant as that of this man
Hughes will bear watching.-Cen-
