hours will now see the planet emerge from the suns rays and run rapidly up- ward in the east. It will reach it's greatest brilliance on August llth, when 1t will be very nearly as bright as 1t was on May29th, and as 1t mounts higher up in the morning sky it's change of form may be observed ex- actly as when it sank in the west. The change will, however occur in the in- verse order The very narrow, silvery, crescent will continually widen, its form becoming exactly that of half circle on September 14th.
 THE PLANET URANUS.
 For a few months. therefore. there will be no bright planet visible in the early evening. Our next visitor wifi be the beautiful Saturn, but this will not enter the evening sky until Sep kembeF. On It's return its rings will be seen to be much more opened out than when it disappeared in February, so that in the telescope 1t will be a most interesting object.
 Tn the absence of brighter planets the possessor of small telescope may search for the faint Uranus which is in the constellation Sagittarius not far from the bright star K. Figs. 1 and 2 All of the stars of this region are shown in the small map of Fig, 8. so that with the help of this and Fig. 2 9hs observer should be able to find this littIe-known world without diffi- culty.
 Uranus shines out with a dull green ish light as a star of about the sixth magnitude It is said to be visible to the naked eye, but 1t is probable that in it's present position, surrounded by the multitude of stars in the Milky Way, 1t cannot be detected without a telescope. We know that it is a great world, thirty thousand miles in diam eter, and that as with Jupiter and Sat urn there Is probably nothing solid about it. It Is still very hot and prob ably in a vaporized condition; 1t Is so expanded by its heat that it is only slightly heavier than water. It is cross ed by faint bands just as Jupiter ts, and is attended by four little moons, each but a few hundred miles in diam eter, and the innermost of which re- wolves about the planet in only two and half days. but all of these details are only visible in the very largest telescope.

BODY OF A. G. BERNARD
INFERRED AT CASS LAKE
Funeral Was Held Yesterday Afternoon,
Under Auspices of Cass Lake
Lodge of Masons.

Cass Lake, Dec. 11-(Special to
Pioneer. 1.-The funeral of A. G.
Bernard was held here at 3 O'Clock
yesterday afternoon, under the
auspices of the Masons. The body
was escorted to the Episcopal church
from the Miskella morgae, by the
pa!l-bearers, who placed the remains
in the rear of the church, giving
the Masonic brothers and former
fellow citizens of the deceased an
opportunity to gaze for the last time
upon the calm featurers of one, whose
achievements have made him an
honored and respected figure. After
all had viewed the remains the cas-
ket was brought to the alter.
The services were conducted by
Rev. H. F. Parshall and were very
impressive. The choir sang the
two beautiful hymns: Sleeping in
Jesus, +" and Remember Now, Thy
Creator" Miss leila Gardner sang,
in very affecting manner, the solo
entitled "Calvary." .-.
After the services the remains
were placed in the hearse and were
escorted by Rev. Parshall and the
Masonic members to Cass Lake
Cemetery, where the Masonic burial
service was held, after which the
casket was lowered to its final rest
ing place.
The pail bearers were E. L.
Warren, c. E. Battles, L. H. Burns,
J. T. Gardner, C. M. Taylor and F.
w. Smith.
There were a number in attend
ance from outside towns, including
a delegation of Masons from Bemidji.

The first of the series of games of
basketball between the big Bemidg"
team and the Superior Normal bas-
ketball squad will be played at the
Coliseum rink this evening; and
local devotees of the game are an
ticipating a contest that will be the
best yet played in the local rink.
The visiting players have an en-
viable reputation as an extremely
fast and well-trained aggregation of
basketball stars who have a record
of games won that would do credit
to any team in the northwest.
Among other wins was a decisive
victory (last year, over the Duluth
Y. M. C. A. team, which gave the
locals the hardest game on their
schedule last year. This win, alone,
gives local basketball followers
line" on the Superior bunch"
The big Bemidg" team has
patched up the slight differences
which existed among the players at
the start of the season, and the or
ganization is now working together
tremendously, which augurs well for
the success of big Bemidg." While
it is possible that all of the regular
players will not play through the
entire game, it is certain that the
five which will play this evening
will be a very strong one,
capable of giving the visitors a
run for the money"
The Superior players and their
manager arrived in the city this af-
ternoon; and the two teams will
line up as follows for this evenings
contest:

Akeley, Dec. 10.


To the Editor of the Bemidii
Pioneer
I was pleased to note the stand
taken by the Pioneer in its Satur-
day issue on the Itasca State Park
question.
This has been agitated to con-
siderable extent in Hubbard county,,
and while we all recognize the
advantages and the benefits to be
derived from the Forestry Board and
School, if they we're properly con-
Quoted, we cannot understand why
it is necessary for the state with
thousands of acres of other lands as
adaptable for forestry purposes as is
the land of the state park, to turn
this park over to the Forestry Board.
The Itasca State Park was to a
large extent gift from the United
States government to the people OF
the State of Minnesota to be used
for their benefit for park purposes
only' and it is question that
ought to be seriously considered
whether the state of Minnesota will
not lose title to the lands given by
the United States if they are used
for purposes other than for that for
which they were given.
The gift was made because of the
great historical and geographical
Importance of the location, Lake
Itasca being the source of the great
Mississippi river. The state
accepted the gift as a park by legis'
lative enactment, and it was made a
state park and game preserve, and
today, wild animals of all kinds
flock to it, seeming to know that
while within it's limits they are safe.
When one considers the great
rapidity with which this state is
being filled with settlers, the speed
with which our great pine forests
are being cut, the fact that our wilc
animals are rapidly becoming ex
tinct; the value of this State Park
becomes apparent, for here, unles:
the place is spoiled by the Forestry
Board, will be the one remaining
wild spot in the state of any con
siderable extent, a place of about g.
square miles, on which is still stand
ing the virgin forests unframed BY
the hand of man, on which will al
WAYS be found the timid deer ane
the majestic moose, to say nothing
of bear and other animals. In thu
park at this time is colony o
beaver, probably the only colony II
the state of Minnesota, and thel
presence alone is of great value tt
the state, for this interesting little
animal will soon be classed with thu
buffalo and other extinct animals
And notwithstanding this fact, i
is said that the Forestry boarc
desired to get rid of these beave
because they occasionally damaged
a tree along the lake shore.
This park, located as it is within
easy access of all of the people 0
the state, will present to the man O
tomorrow the only bit of real un
molested nature within the state AM
it is a duty we owe the people o
the future to keep the park in IT.
present wild condition, and it i
our duty to ward from it anything
The Bemidji daily pioneer. [volume] (Bemidji, Minn.) 1904-1971, 1908-12-11

that would have a tendency to
take from it any of its natural
wild effects. Its value is in keeping
it as it is, not as forestry board
would like to have it. St. Paul
has Como and Minneapolis a
Harriet. These parks show what
man can do in his attempts to i'm
prove on nature and unless the
legislature takes control of the Itasca
park from the hands of Professor
Green and the rest of the Forestry
board. we will have a sort of a
nondescript park, not as beautiful as
Como, and without the wild attrac-
tive beauty of Itasca.
Probably no greater farce than
this Forestry School has ever been
perpetrated upon the people of the
state, and it would not be a bad
idea if there was a legislative investi-
cation of the Forestry Board and
their School. The results accom-
plished by the school are nil and
the expenses great. 1t is the only
school in the state where the
scholars get a monthly salary for
attending. Most scholars are pleased
to pay for their education but not so
here, for this school in order to
keep up the pretence of being a
school must hire it's scholars. 1t
really amounts to nothing more than
the fact that the state is being used
to pay the vacation expenses for a
few of our supernnuated college pro.
fessors and public men, and these
men would prefer to have their vaca.
tons on a preserve dedicated solely
to the use of supernnuated professors,
so they are attempting to do away
with the park feature of the park
and turn it into a Forestry School
ground, pure and simple.
They wanted to do away with the
beaver; they wanted to allow thei1
hired students the privilege of hunt
ing on the State Park, knowing that
if the students were allowed to shoot
on the park it would be but little
while before the neighboring settlers
would also use the privilege and thai
the result would be the driving out
of the park the animals that now
make the park so attractive. They
are allowing magnificent Dougla:
Lodge to sink into a deplorabl<
state of delapidation. This building
is log structure of 18 rooms. The
logs are Norway pine, all of uni
form size, carefully pealed, oiled anc
vanished. It cost the state to buile
and furnish this building about
100000 and it is probably thu
most beautiful building of it's kline
in the United States, but it canno
be kept so without the same amour
of attention that an ordinary build
would require. Unless the logs are
kept oiled and vanished they will
have become weather-beaten, dirt!
and in color, spelling the beautiful
effect of the natural wood finish.
!: This matter has been brought tt
the attention of the board time
. after time, but it does not seem tt
bother them to any extent. Th'
kinking between the logs had begun
to fall out and when I was their
last fall one could stand within tn
large lobby, and look out through tn
cracks between the logs where til,
