ISLE OF SPICE LAST NIGHT.
Good Sized Auo ence Witnessed Mus
ical Comedy at the Grand.

mother good-sized audience was
present last night to witness THE
Isle Of Spice, twoact musical COM
edy, which was put on in very good
style and seemed TO have been en-
ioyed ty the audience.
Following so closely "The Golden
Girl" which was presented at the
Grand Thursday night, and which was
a great treat The Isle of Spice" did
not show up SO we'll, not that it was
not a very lively musical comedy
hut it followed an attraction of the
same kind which easily ranked as one
of the best that was ever seen here.
The chorus last night was a large
and well trained one, the comedians
were all very good, and while none OF
the leaders had very good voices, ex-
cept possibly Miss Margaret Welch,
still none of them had very many
solos to sing and they showed up to
good advantage in the chorus.
During the performance a number
Of pretty dances were introduced, the
costumes were all pretty and gor
geous and the chorus girls we're an
unusually good looking set and seem
ed tc work hard to make the attrac
tion enjoyable. There we're number
of features which brought forth loud
| applause and altogether the attrac-
! ton was well up to the standard d
! musical comedies.

The newly-elected commissioners
for Beltrami county, Messrs. w. G.
Schroeder, William Fellows and
Lars O. Myhre, met this morning
with Viggo Peterson, one of the two
remaining members of the board
who were not removed from office,
and reorganized the county board
and resumed the transaction of bust
ness for the county, Hello Clement
son, who represents the Second
district, being absent.
Mr.. Peterson, who has acted as
vice chairman since last January,
was elected chairman, it being held
by the attorney general that the vice
chairman did not by right of
succession assume the office of chair
man since Chairman Danaher was
removed. w. G.. Schroeder was
elected vice chairman.
The minutes of the last meeting
of the board were read and approved,
with the exception that the minutes
did not contain the adoption of a
resolution authorizing the appropri-
alton of 5000 for road work in the
Town of Taylor and 5000 in the
Town of Durand. The minutes
were amended so as to include these
resolutions and were adopted, as
read.
The board Immediately got busy"
and from present indications Bel
trami county has a board of COM
missioners who transact business
expeditlously and with due thorough
ness.

will be given in tomorrow's Pio-
neer.)

have assisted in building up the
county. By close application to
business, he has built up an elegant
mercantile business in Bemidji and
also owns several farms in Beltrami
and Hubbard counties. He will no
doubt make an excellent member of
the board, as he is conservative
business man and believes in the
economical administration of the
business affairs of the county.
William Fellows, the commissioners
elect from the Fifth district, is one
of the most prominent business
men of Tenstrike. He owns a saw
mill at that place and fine farm,
and has been prominently identified
with the growth and development
of that section of the county. MI.
Fellows came to Tenstrike from
Eagle Bend some ten years ago. He
has the reputation of being a con-
servative, square-dealing business
man and will make a good county
commissioner.
Lars 0. Myhre, who will hereafter
represent the Third district, is one
of the most prominent and progress
i've farmers in the Town of Liberty.
Mr.. Myhre has had considerable
experience as a public official, and
during his residence of ten years in
this section of the state has assisted
very materially in the development
of the agricultural resources of Bel
trami county. Mr.. Myhre is spoken
of very highly.

The ordinance granting h e

way and as passed is as follows:
The Ordinance.
AT regular meeting of the City Coun-

nance was introduced by Alderman E

DON T|0N
FOR $500 =
More Money is imperative.
There Should Be No
''AoId-ups'' for
Options.


The securing of funds with which
to purchase right-of-way for the
building of the 500 railway through
the city of Bemidji is progressing
very satisfactorily, although a con-
siderable sum is yet needed to CON-
plete all the deals for property de-
sired for sidetracks, station grounds,
ETC.. :...
w. L. Brooks, president of the
Bemidji Commercial Club, has re-
turned from a visit to the Twin cities
and Duluth, where he received sub.
stantial subscriptions to the fund,
and was given every encourage
ment from people living in those
cities who are interested financially
in Bemidji.
One of the very commemorate
features of the donations was the
extreme liberality of the Bemidji
Townsite company, which has do
mated property for the right-of-way
which is valued at close to $4,000.
Lee Hebron has also donated to
the committee lots to the value of
5000.
There are still number of options
which are to be secured on property
that the 500 must have in order to
have clear field to the right-of-way
which has already been surveyed
through the city, and an appeal is
is being made to the owners of the
land to be reasonable in their
demands for their holdings, as the
money to buy the same comes from
the general fund subscribed by loyal
citizens of Bemidji, who are all
doing the utmost to secure the 500
for the city.
There is little doubt but that the
500 will be built into Bemidji from
the east, running through Cass Lake,
as the citizens of Bemidji are deter
mined to secure the desired right-of-
way through Bemidji, and are pro-
crossing very satisfactorily to the
500 Officials.

tons in full, up to yesterday evening:
