"The Marathon Race"

The long-distance foot race was
a popular form of contest more
than 1000 years ago, and its revival
in this country has been graphically
illustrated in a picture called The
Marathon" by Samuel Nelson
Abbott. II ~ .~a.-.:
It shows the victor in the final
desperate squirt of a great contest
of speed and endurance. The
nearest contender has run himself
to exhaustion, and has collapsed on
the course within few strikes of
the goal; farther back is .another
runner, badly beaten but still going
to his last ounce of gameness. /
The excitement Of the crowd, the
cheers, the waving of hats and hands
| for the victor; the gloom of the
friends of losers, are realistically
shown. :.
This ancient Greek race was one
of the principal events of the
Olympic games which have been
revived. The victory of. an Ameri
can athlete last year at London over
the best runners of the nations Of
the world has renewed the popular.
ity of the race in this country. The
picture is founded on that finish,
The drawing in it's original form is
one of value, and was made for Hart
Schaffner & Marx.
This very interesting picture is in
the display window of Schneider
Bros clothing store and should be
seen by. everyone who appreciates a
good thing" ~.

many compliments by the staff of
officers. It is not simply talk but
this company is one of the very best
here; no one attempts to dispute it
and many try to copy their style of
preparing camp for inspection.
Even the Duluth companies look
with envy upon the Bemidji boys.
Field day will be held next Satur-
day at which time many events of
athletic significance will be pulled
off on the parade ground. The
officers revolver range opened this
morning and there has been a great
many there all forenoon. The
officers of Company K are soon to
be called there and it is expected
they will be an honor to themselves
and their company.
H. E.. Reese, of Crippen & Reese
of Bemidji, is here getting a nice
assortment of views which he will
have copyrighted before placing on
the market. These are something
different from the cheap views sold
here. Crippen & Reese make size
and shape of postal cards that no
other photographer in this part of
the country uses. They have them
specially made for this purpose. Mr..
Reese states that he will present
Company K with a large framed set
of these views for their armory.
, Discipline is very good at camp
this year, certain changes having
been made to insure proper respect
toward superior officers and a more
rigid order for a peaceful camp.

RAIN NEEDED IN ORDER
TOMOVE DRIVES OF LOGS
Possible that Lack Of Sufficient Water
May Tie Up Logs for
Summer. #

On account Of the dry weather
there is great need of generous
rains if the different log drives in
the country north of Bemidji are to
reach their intended destination.
On the Blackjack river and its
tributaries, the North and South
Cormant rivers and O'Brien Brook,
the crews in J. A. Irvine's driving
camps have been able to work but
one day in two or three, and now
have to wait nearly week to get
heads of water in the dams. Unless
rain comes soon these drives will
probably have to be hung up, especi-
ally the one on the South Cormant
river, which yet contains some
30,OOO,O0O feet of logs belonging to
the Crookston Lumber company,
Thief River Falls Lumber company
and the Grand Forks Lumber COM
pany. .~.
The three large side-wheel tow
boats (steamer Beltrami for the
.Crookston Lumber company, and
steamers James Meehan and Jay
Anderson have already taken
several booms of logs across Red
lake and turned them into the
mouth of the Red Lake river.
The two booms east of Redby,
containing logs put in last winter
by E. O. Moore & Co. and the Hay
Creek camp of the Crookston Lum-
Der company, were the first to be
taken across after long delay waiting
for the ice to 90 out, and the drive
containing them was started down
Red Lake river, for Thief River Falls
and Crookston, three weeks ago in
charge of Henry Betting and William
Shrief. . '...
William Burce and Thomas Ted
ford are at the mouth of the Black
duck river, looking after the booming
of the logs. -.....----....
Hugh Dean of Thief River Falls
has charge of the crew booming out
at the mouth of the Battle river.
As there is large head of over six
feet of water in Battle lake, the logs
in that river will doubtless soon be
doomed out from its mouth, when the
crew will next apply themselves to
the logs in Tamarac river, on north
Red Lake, and now extending in a
solid jam in that river for a number
of miles. .-~:.s.
The north Turtle River drive of
Blake & Hawkins, out of Rebedew
lake, which was scheduled to COM
mence several weeks ago, was post
poned until heavy rains come.
There is big and bad jam of
logs in the river at Big Falls that
a crew have been working on for
about week, even using dynamite
to break it, with small success. The
drive of the Bemidji Lumber CON-
pany, now some fourteen miles up
the Mississippi river, (by land is
just ready to be hung up for lack
of water. 49,

FOLLOWING OUR PRECEDENT.

Vt is gratifying to sec that the
course taken by Salt Lake CITY in ap.
| pcaling direct to the President for
rehct from unjust railroad freight
charges, is approved in tho Judgment
oi the country, and is being followed
to large extent by other cities. AS
sci forth IN The Tribune yesterday
morning, the manufacturing interests in
st, Louis, Chicago, Toledo. Pittsburg.
Indianapolis, and Cincinnati, have made
like appeal direct TO tho President.
urging upon him the necessity for ex-
tending the powers of the Interstate
Commerce Commission, first, so that the
findings Of tho Commission can take
immediate effect in spite of any ap-
peais TO the courts that may be made.
Second, to give the shipper the liberty
to route his freight as he may desire,
without his being obliged to submit TO
the dictation Of the railroads. Third,
TO hold the railroads responsible for
their own errors in ratcmaking.
All this is brilliant feather in Salt
Lake IS cap.
In the meantime, Salt Lake is get
ting good and ready. and will have an
absolutely impregnable case TO present
to the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion i'll support of her claim that she
is being compelled to pay eXorbitant
and unfairly discriminating freight
rates for railroad transportation on
her commodities, She Will rest on the
square and convincing presentation
that she viii make, confident in the
justice of her case, and in the disposi-
tion Of the Interstate Commerce Com
