THOUGHT AsToR WAS CRAZY.

People said John Jacob Aston was
crazy because he paid $1,000 an acre
when he bought the estate of Aaron
Burr a hundred years ago. 1t was
a farm of 100 acres, located about
where Twenty-first street is now in
Manhattan. In ten years he com.
menced to sell lots at $4,000 an acre
But, fortunately, he did not sell much
at that price. What it is worth to.

maker, and is known as one of the most
thorough mechanics of north-central Mime
sofa. At present he conducts a general job
and repair shop and is prepared to execute
any class of work which can be formed
from wood and he also attends to furniture
repairing.
Mr.. Cunningham has been resident of
Bemidji for seven years. From the day he
settled here he has been esteemed for his
sterling qualities and as an interested citi-
zen. At present he is manager of the City
Opera House, and has made success of
his stewardship.
Mr. Cunningham is native of the Hawk
eye state, where he was born in the year
1851. Viewing the possibilities of the Great
Northwest, Mr.. Cunningham selected Be
midi as the most promising city in this
territory, and here he abides. AS one of
Bemidjis influential business men, Mr.. Gun
bingham ranks preeminent. He is boost
er and hustler from the word "go," and
he has, all the time, been reckoned among
the city's boomers for a greater Bemidji.

J. p. LAIR.

While there are furniture houses in Be-
midi, it is a bona fide fact that each of
them, while they vie with the other for
patronage, fully realizes the Importance of
this Souvenir and Booster Edition,
and by virtue of their inclusion therein DEM
onstrate that they are not slow to push the
interests of Bemidji to the front of other
cities of the state.
Mr.. Lair, at all times, carries the most
elaborate line of furniture, carpets, oriental
and domestic rugs of every description and
from every clime and mattings, oil cloths,
and linoleums which represent the best
made He has recently received an attract
i've line of the latest goods in quartersawed
oak and other appreciable modes while in
the medium priced goods he is always well
stocked. He also handles new line of
wall papers, picture frames and mouldings
which are not to be discounted.
Mr.. Lair as citizen is one of those who
has always time to devote to the boosting
of the city in which he lives and in which
he has made such glowing success, and
The Pioneer fully appreciates his efforts as
one of those who seek to enhance the value
of Bemidji and Beltrami county as a place
of residence, education and investment.

bedding, ribbons, laces, curtains, domestic
and Oriental rugs, etc., while in clothing he
offers everything in the way of ready-made
suits, mems shirts, gloves and mittens, hats
and caps, fur-lined overcOats and haber-
dashery In shoes Mr.. Nangle has stocked
his store to an extent to meet the needs OF
all Corners, including rubber goods, leggings,
fur-lined overshoes and every manner OF
footwear known to the trade, in both ladies'
and gents makes. In the store of Mr..
Nangle may also be found an extensive line
Of glassware and QueensWare, tinware and
enameled ware, gardening implements and
washing machines, two chief makes being
the Western" and the Globe" two of the
best and most easily manipulated wash ma
chimes ever manufactured. Seeds of all
kinds are also to be had from Nangle's
store, while the grocery department OF this
business house has earned the popular cog
nomen of The Farmers Exchange, fact
which bespeaks fair prices for everything
Mr.. Nangle offers his extensive patronage
for their products and the nominal prices
he charges for merchandise to them.
Mr.. Nangle serves as another example of
what Bemidji has accomplished for those
who maintained faith in its growth. Last
year he built an addition to the already
large quarters he occupied, and within ten
years he has not only seen Bemidji develop
into a beautiful city from mere hamlet
but he has earned competence as well.
The natural inference and the fact is that
Mr.. Nangle is one of the eminent business
men of the city, he is imbued with an abid-
ing faith in Bemidji's worth as a coming
metropolis he is conservative as bust
ness man and enthusiastic as an advocate
of his home town, and the thousands of
readers of this Souvenir Edition can do no
better service for the city in which they
live than by keeping their money at home
by patronizing such stores as that owned
by Chas. Nangle.

M. r. CUNNINGHAM.

This gentleman is among the public
spirited men of Bemidji who, while he has
nothing of direct Importance to advertise,
is mentioned because of his desire to aid in
the undertaking The Pioneer has inaug-
urated. Mr.. Cunningham is an expert car
penter by occupation, doing work of his
own accord. He is also skilled cabinet

w. G. SCHROEDER.

In mentioning the name of this well
known business man it affords The Pioneer
exceptional pleasure to note him among the
state. He deals in every known line of
merchandise, and the prices imposed in ex-
change for their goods are bedrock in ex-
tent. They carry dry goods of the best
textures, dress goods galore, in all popular
checks and patterns; ribbons and laces of
the most delicate fabric, and commodities in
the various branches of their business
which will appeal to every taste and fit
every purse. Their line of groceries en-
bodies all the famous pure food brands in
canned goods, teas, coffees, spices, baking
powder and other staples. Their footwear
department contains all the world-knoWn
makes.
This firm and the instrinsic value it offers
is known far and wide. The fact that the
gentleman above named has conducted this
general store for about ten years. and has
enlarged upon it and prospered to an inordi-
nate degree, is prima facie evidence of his
keen business foresight and equity in the
way of transactions.
The Pioneer can, without qualm of fear
recommend Mr.. Schroeder to the good Of
fees and patronage of it's thousands of
readers, and bespeak for him continuation
of the success which has attended his eff
forts. He conducts his business in one of
the largest brick buildings of the city, his
own property, and represents one of our
most energetic hustlers.

Safety al Sea

Last year q thousand ships or more
were lost; the year before the sea took
nearly the same toll. To the tourist
his assurance of safety lies in the fact
that it is the sailing vessel, with its
dependence on the tickle wind, that
largely makes up the tremendous loss
Freighting steamers, voyaging on I'M
familiar coasts, nearly complete the
disaster roll; but to the great liners,
with their familiar routes, their we'll
known lines Of traved, their guarded
and we'll lighted harbors, and all their
appliances for safety, the manifold
dangers of the ocean are only the re-
mote possibilities that give touch of
adventure to their passage from land to
land. Every morning brings us some
story of death or accident on land,
while the great passenger ships cofne
and go in monotonous regularity, bring
ing no, reports more stirring than those
ct high seas that have kept them from
making new records, With the present
madness for speed and its attendant
reckiessness, our streets demand con.
staht alerthess If you would cross them
with safety. Speed at sea has come
through larger and more st6utly con.
structed ships. So the familiar old
story of the sailorman at sea in storm
who, serene in his consciousness of
ample sea room, piously calculated:
"God help the poor folks ashore to-
night!' is not wholly fantastic.

BIDS FOR RAISING ROOF.
More Room Being Provided in the

Bids have been opened at the Treasury

Treasury on the south and west sides OF
the building so as to permit the enlarge

entire fourth floor is to be occupied by
the supervising architect of the Treasury.

were not made larger. Congress appro-
priated $4,000 for the work. and this
sum is to be spent in raising the roof
and fitting the rooms up for Office pur-
poses. The bids submitted to the Treas
ury for the work are as .follows:> Boyle.

pany agrees to complete the work for
s32 100 in ten weeks. less than half the
time fixed by the lowest bidder.
Treasury officials said today that it
would be impossible to permit the work
of changing the roof to go on for five
months. and it is probable that the two
lowest bidders will be communicated with
for further statement as to the time in
which they can do the work as well as
the amount they will do the work for.

into his new quarters as soon as possi-

"FREE SUNDAY" PROBABLE.
Uncle Sans Sailors May Be Assured
Period Of Rest.

1t seems probable that the so-called
free Sunday" will be established in the
navy Of the United States. An order to
that effect will have a personal interest
for every onicer and enlisted man in
the service For a number of years
many commanding oflcers have rec
commended it. The subject came up in
a positive way during the administra-
ton of President Roosevelt, who was
in favor Of an arrangement which would
do away with purely routine duties on
shipboard Sunday. Among those du-
ties il the regular weekly inspection,
for which every one must be specially
attired and paraded. with considerable
form and loss Of time
1t has been pointed out to the de-
partment recently that this weekly in
spection can be conducted on any day
in the week with equal benefit and
Sunday saved for relaxation. 1t is
planned to arrange matters SO that Of
f1cers and enlisted men may leave their
ships, when I'm port. Saturday, and. In
most cases. remain on shore until Mon
day morning. That will add to the
comfort OF the personnel on shipboard.
who find Sunday day of irksome work
or useless restriction. The Sunday in
spection and the other routine work
performed on that day have been con-
tinued largess by reason of adherence
to service traditions. The matter will
be settled in a few days.
