the Crookston man was asked to
skate a series of three races against
Thorpe, in the Bemidji rink, for a
purse of any part of 500 side,
gate receipts to be divided to suit
Carpenter.
In talking over the telephone
yesterday afternoon to A. G.. Rut-
ledge of this city, Carpenter signi-
fed his willingness to skate a series
of races against Thorpe, at any dis
lance, from ten feet on, for the full
500, one race to be skated at Be-
midi, one at Crookston, and if a
third race is necessary to decide
the championship, a neutral rink
to be selected by the skaters.
This proposition exactly suits
Thorpe, and it is pretty certain that
the boys will get together in some
races that will be the best ever
pulled off in northern Minnesota,
within the next ten days.

supposed to be John Johnson, a
lumberjack who is not known in
this village, was either accidentally
killed or committed suicide at about
the time the Sank Center-Bemidii
passenger train departed from this
city for the west, at 9 O'Clock last
evening. The crew of a freight
train, which was pulling out for the
east from the Cass Lake depot, dis
covered Johnson's body wedged be-
tween the platform and the rails of
the main track, about fifty feet
west of the depot, two hours after
the Bemidji train had departed.
The left hand had been severed
from the body and there was a big
cash in the throat, it being evident
that Johnson had been instantly
killed. -...-

undertaking rooms and Coroner

Walker. He was slightly under the
influence of liquor. =

passenger on the train and in talk
ing to Jondahl, Johnson said that
he wished he was dead. Jondahl
stopped at Cass Lake, and he says
that Johnson was on the train when
last seen.
1t is believed that Johnson either
accidentally fell on the track or
deliberately threw himself under the
wheels in order to end his earthly
career. is .-

No Races Tonight at Rink.

There will be no amateur races at
the Coliseum for some time to come,
the management having decided to
postpone these contests until the
nights that Carpenter and Thorpe
race, which it is expected will be
within the next ten days.
This action is taken on account of
the basketball game which will be
played Friday evening, between
Big Bemidg" and Fosston.
Consequently, there will be no
races, of any character at the rink
tonight.

pie last evening. while the business
conditions are somewhat quiet at
present they have commenced to
pick up and every merchant reports
an increase in his trade. The MUIR
ray mill has completed a very salts
factory run. The tryout was made
on low grade ore and after a four
days run they cleaned up about
$4,000. The capacity of the plant is
ten stamps.
THE Weiss ten-stamp mill will be
completed and ready for custom

Nearly all the properties in the

THE sensation of the district at
present is the old Kearns No. 2 lease.
After taking out $4,000 from the
sixty-fve-foot level, the big shoot
was lost. The operators continued
sinking until they obtained depth
of 400 feet. At every hundred-foot
level they ran lateral drifts, but fail
ed to again encounter the big pay
shoot and about ten days ago they
abandoned the lease.
THE company placed two men at
work on the sixty-five foot level
where the ore was lost, and before
they had. drifted ten feet found the

EARLY MORNING FIRE

The fire department was called out
at 1880 o'clock this morning by a
blaze in a two-room mouse in the
rear of the Celtic hotel. When the
apparatus arrived the interior of the
house was a mass of flames, which
were quickly extinguished. 1t was
impossible to find out who occupied
the house as no one was about, but
it is supposed that two miners were
the tenants. The fire is supposed to
have started from an over-heated
stove.
