Horace Wednesday afternoon. Coroner
A. w. Skelsey last evening adjourned
the inquest for one week and in the
meantime, with assistance from the
sheriff's office, every effort will be ex-
erted to locate the guilty parties to
the inhuman crime
Evidence was introduced at the In
quest last evening, which established
the mere fact that the child was taken
from the river. Those who had dis
covered the corpse or assisted in TAX
ing the remains from the river told
their stories, and that was all.
An examination of the remains
showed that the victim, a little boy
had been in the water some time
having been placed there Immediately
after birth.

in the river by resident OF this
county or the vicinity OF Horace, cI

nice residences tell of the prosperity
of the little town while for its size it
offers many advantages.
One of the attractive things about
the town and the surrounding country
Is the good roads, The soil is com
posed Of sandy loan and being of
rolling nature, fine natural drainage
is offered. After the hardest rains the
roads are in good condition making
them ideal for motoring or driving.
All parts of the tow are connected
with good concrete sidewalks.
With these facilities it offers many
advantages to the summer visitor or
resident. It is safe to predict that
while the town has always been
known as splendid fishing point, its
future as regular summer resort is
just starting. The building of new
resorts gives evidence Of this tend
ency and 1t is expected by the town
people that in a fey years 1t will be
extensively patronized by that class
of 'isitors who will own their own
summer cottages and sid several
months g year in the town and It's
vicinity.

The lakes around Perham, Mimi,
have always been known as some Of
the best fishing places in the country
but Ii has only been In the last few
years that this place has become
summer resort.
For many years those who enjoy
sport with the rod and line have visi-
ted the numerous laGes I'm this re-
gion AS the fishermen visiting the
lakes around Perham became more
numerous development has been made
to meet their needs and the town has
Just begun to bud as a regular sum-
mer resort.
This has come with the building Of
a number of hotels on the lake shores
and the establishment of cottage
communities and the indications are
that the town will soon become one
OF the principal summer resort points.
If it's location has anything to do
with IL. these indications will certain
ly be realized.
The Heart of the Park Region.
This location is certainly most fav-
orable for the summer cottage dwell
ler 1t is practically in the heart of
the famous park region of Minnesota
that land of sky-blue lakes to
which thousands flock every summer
for rest and recreation. This number
is annually increasing and facilities
must be increased to care for them.
Perham Is meeting these requirements
as several new resorts have been es-
tablished in the past two years.
AS for the park region In general,
everybody knows that as an ideal spot
for summer outing or a few days
rest, 1t cannot be surpassed in the en-
tire country. Here the camping fisher
man bent on "roughing it," the busf-
ness tired persons seeking rest and
recreation in the farm houses or the
resort hotels, the fisherman out for a
few days or the summer cottage dwell
Ter. may find their ideals. But no mat
ter how they intend to live while on
their vacation there are two things
absolutely necessary-water and fish.
These two requisites in abundance
and nature In her most beautiful form
are the things that have made the
park region of Minnesota famous
throughout the world. Every summer

MAN GONE.

With three OF the eye witnesses to
the murder of Charles Clarke out of
the city, one in Montana, one in IL

States Atty. A. w. Fowler became
convinced that the place for this class
Of people is behind the bars.
On filing an affidavit in the police
court before Judge Martin Ryan that
he believed an effort has been or will
be made to induce witnesses in the
case of the state against Edward w.
Simpson, charged with murder in the
first degree to leave the state and not
be present to testify at the trial in
the district court next week, warrants
were issued for the arrest of John
Smith, VIM. Butler and Richard
Burns, all colored. Returns were made
on two but the latter could not be To-
Gated and there is every reason to be-
lieve that he has taken UP the cause
of his colored brother by fleeing.

room.
Smith and Butler are now held in
the county Jail and no chances will
be taken on their escaping. VIM
Andrews, who witnessed the shooting
is still in the city and will doubtless

story for the prosecution.

Perham-Heart of the Lake Region Of Minnesota
Offers Unexceled Advantages for Summer -Resorters

these things bring thousands Of peo-
pie to this section OF the gopher state
to spend a few months in summer cot
tages or hotels, the farmhouse or
camp. Restful days healthfully tenn
pered with the sport Of fishing Is
what is wanted.
AS has been said Perham Is near
the heart OF this vast region of thous-
ands of lakes. The town is surround
ed on all sides by these numerous
bodies of fresh water, which abound
with Ash. II is situated in the north
eatst corner of Otter Tail county and
Is on the Northern Pacific railroad
and the otter Tail river. 1t is easily
accessable--1s5 miles from ST. Paul
and sixty-four miles from Fargo. A
good passenger train service to this
town makes 1t possible for those with
little time to spare to spend day or
two on one of the lakes. Many take
advantage of this. From Fargo many
go to Perham for the purpose of fish,
ing over Sunday.
Fourteen Good Fishing Lakes.
1t has been the fact that the town
is easily reached by rail and that the
good fishing grounds are near the
town that has developed Perham as
resort. Within easy driving distance
of the town there are fourteen lakes
where good fishing can be secured
The lake nearest thu Gown is Little
Pine lake which can be reached by a
drive or walk Of one mile. The far
thest Is thirteen miles.
These bodies of water are the Big
Pine, Little Pine, Marion, Dead, Star
Devils, Sybil, Big Mcdonald, Little
Mcdonald, Otter Tail, Rush, Head
Round and Long lakes. They vary in
size from about a mile long by three
quarters Of mile wide to ten miles
long by half that wide. Irrespective
of their size, however, Ishing is good
in all Of them-pike, pickerel and bass
prevailing.
The Otter Tail river, a tributary oi
the Red river, connects a. number 81
these lakes-mainly the two Pine
lakes, Rush lake and Otter Tail lake
BY this stream 1t is possible by row
boat or small launch to go from one
lake to the other. In this way ar

ont the stream to deposit an illegiti-
mate chiid--these are some Of the
questions which are baffling the offi-
cials IL the latter Is the case. little
hope can be held out of tracing the
guilty party. The deed worked out wen
for the perpetrator, who was given
plenty Of time to get out OF the coun-
try before the matter came before the
officials and the general public.
That public indignation has been
aroused, is evident from every hand,
and not until the matter has been fer
reted out and the guilty parties
brought to justice, win 1t subside The
crime is one Of the most repuIsive In
the annals of criminal history of the
county and Coroner Skelsey and

SOME MORE BASKET BALL
-Four High School Teams Created
Much Excitement i'll the Games
rhcy Played at City Hall.

In the second of the series of high
school basketball games Wednesday
night the seniors won over the fresh
man by the score of 10 to g., and
the juniors defeated the sophomores
2l to 1S. The first game was good
but the latter was the more exciting,
the result of the game being deter
mined in the last few minutes Of
play.
The auditorium of the city hall
was we'll filled with spectators and
the four classes had advantageous
positions from which they cheered
their teams. The crowd was very
appreciative Of what good plays we're
made. The boys have developed
considerable since the beginning Of
the season, nov being able to make
their playing cleaner and with more
accuracy.
The seniors won quite easily over
the freshman, their teamwork being
perhaps the best Of any on the floor.
In the first half they made IL to
their opponents 4, which lead they
increased to 10 and 6 by the close
of the game. Rowley. Wiltse and
johnson did some very good work.
The senior team was Rowley and
Tingle, forwards; Storer, center;
Belts and Wiltse, guards. The fresh
man, WEIGH and Nichols, forwards;
Johnson, center; Knight and Cook,
guards.
The Junior and sophomore teams
played a close game throughout. At
the end of the first half the score
was 10 to s in favor of the sopho-
mores and at the close of the game
the juniors had piled up 81 to is.
Both classes supported their teams
vigorously with class yells and songs.
Very good team work vas shown
throughout although the playing was
rather rough and ragged towards
the last. Vassar, for the juniors,
PLAYED his usual star game. Aspinwall
did some very good Wort. at guard
and Berry made up in playing what
he lacked in stature. being respon-
sible for Il good part of the score
made by the s~ophomores. The junior
team was Vassar and Smith, for
wards; Hofstetter, center; Medley
and Doyle, guards. The sophomore,
Berry and Collins. forwards; Lester,
center; Aspinwall and Shipton,
guards. The officials We're Teeter
and Atkinson.

The Brute.

J A certain Chicago married man who
boasts to the boys that his wife never
sits up for him slipped out for cigar
the other evening after supper, and
failed to notice that his wife had her
party gown on. When he softly tipped
into the house at a. m. he was
slightly surprised to see a dewy-eyed
lady trip down the stairway, turn her
back to him and tearfully say:
There are two hooks just couldn't
reach: won't you unfasten them so /
can go to bed?"
Fortunately he could and did.-Chi-
