Before Probate Judge Clark this
morning a hearing on a petition to
sell land was heard, the petition
being signed by Gilberg G. Weien as
guardian for Henry H. Halvorson, a

The land is located in Clearwater

one-ffth interest in the property.
Some three years ago a license
was granted to MIR. Weien to sell
this interest in the land, but the
license has expired without Weien

The guardian now declares that
he has a prospective buyer for the
land and Judge Clark today granted
him a license to sell the property.

Red-Hot Lumber Company Game.

A red-hot game of baseball that
was the real article of the great
national game was played at the park
yesterday forenoon, when teams
representing the Benidji Lumber
company and the Crookston Lumber
company got together for conflict
for diamond supremacy.
The game developed into a
pitchers battle between Pete Edd
for the Bemidji company and J..
Truedell for the Crookston company.
With Andy" McNab, armed
with wicked-looking cane resemb-
ling a bludgeon, acting as judge of
plays, there was no kicking and
the game was free from any unpleas-
antness. ~.
There were but few hits make off
either pitcher, the Bemidji team
finally winning the game, by a score
of 3 to 2. ..
And now Pete Edd is making
defiant suggestions to the first team
of the city, and insinuating that his
team can wash the dust from the
diamond with Louie" Roy and his
followers. .-
