RAPELJE HAS EVEN
CHANCE TO.
LIVE
INJURED NORTHERN PACIFIC
OFFICIAL EXAMINED BY
DR.. AYLEN.

DR.. j. p. Aylen, chief of the North
ern Pacific hospital staff, returned
yesterday from st. Paul and other
eastern cities, and at once repaired
to the company hospital, where he
made an examination of the injuries
which were sustained Saturday af-
ternoon by Superintendent j. M. Ra-
pelje. He found that the injured
mans chances for recovery are ey-
enly divided
Upon reaching the bedside of the
patient the doctor found him hardly
recognizable, owing to the fact that
his right lung, which had been pierc-
ed by one of the broken ribs, was
not in the best shape and when he
breathed the air was taken in under
the skin. After the skin had been
punctured the swollen condition dis
his usual appearance.
The injuries consist of four or five
broken ribs, one of which pierced the
right lung, and a couple of small
cuts about the head, the latter not
being considered serious. If pneu-
monia does not set in the patients
chances for recovery are very good
The crisis in the pneumonia danger
Will arrive in the next few days and
If nothing develops it is but a matter
of time when Mr.. Rapelje will be up
and around.
Mr.. Rapelje's relatives in Glendive,
Salt Lake and points in California
have been notified of the accident.
Chief Dispatcher w. c.. Showalter,
who recently left for California, has
received notice of the accident and
will arrive in Missoula tomorrow
General Superintendent G. A. Goodell
will arrive here today on No. Is and
will superintend matters until the
status of Mr. Rapelje's condition is
definitely determined.

BODY OF A WELL-DRESSED
STRANGER is FOUND NEAR
NATIONAL CAPITAL.
IDENTITY IS IN DOUBT
Victim Is Discovered Near Railroad
Station at Alexandria and Police
Hold to Theory That Man Was
Lured From Ceremon nies at Wash
ington and Killed in Cold Blood.

Washington, March THE body of
a well-dressed man, partially covered
with snow and bearing jagged wound
in the neck, was today found near
Alexandria, Va, a short distance from
Washington. In the pockets of the
clothing were a travellers check Cor
$500 issued by the Wells Fargo Ex-
press company at Los Angeles, pay
able to Walter f. Schultz, a card bear
ing the same name, but with an ad-
dress of 1914 Douglas street, Sioux
City, Iowa, and another card, Which
bears the name of Mrs. Alma Hume
Gillette.
Cold Blooded Murder.
The police regard the case as a
cold-blooded murder and as one of
the most mystifying crimes ever
committed in this section. A motive
is lacking, but the identity of the
man supposed to be Schultz is by no
means complete. Cards and other
papers found in the clothes are be-
lieved to have been placed there by
his slayer.
The theory that the man had COM
mitted suicide is not credited be-
cause of the peculiar wound and the
fact that no weapon of any sort was
found near his body.
Inauguration Visitor.
After working all day upon all
sorts of clues, the Alexandria police
believe the murdered man was an in
auguration visitor who was lured
away from the city, murdered and
his body thrown in to a field where
it was found, about 40 yards from
the Alexandria railroad station.
The authorities believe they will
establish the identity of the victim
from a letter, without envelope evil
IDENTIFY belonging to the victim. 1t
was dated Sioux City, Iowa, Decem-
ber 30,' and signed Your sister,
Ellen Dorothy"
The man was apparently 35 years
old and his appearance was that of
a prosperous business man.

Then will begin long wait by the

senators therefore are considering
the advisability of entering upon 9TH

possibility of such policy beins
adopted ever since they became
aware of their inability to secure leg

are many earnest advocates of
change of date in the inauguration
from March 4. Action on this aues-
tion may be taken
Advocates of statehood for New
Mexico and Arizona were greatly
disappointed that no progress could
be made toward the enactment of an
enabling act during the late session
and they are restless over any pro-
position to delay action until the
regular session of congress, because
they fear the class of legislation
which will then come up will crowd
out their claims

The presidents veto of the census
Dill makes mandatory some action to
provide for the enumeration of the
18th census. Legislation might be de-
layed until early next winter, but
some believe that the extra session
would give an admirable opportunity
to dispose of it.
The extra session is sure to bring
forth deluge of bills in both houses.

James C.. Thompson, the new
mayor of Rochester, in his remarks
npon taking upon himself the duties
of the Office Monday evening, closed
with this thoughtful and vigorous ex-
preston which is too good for
Rochester to have any copyright on:
Some one has given as Rochester's
motto, Build, Boom, Boost.
earnestly hope that we may during
the coming year, Build wisely, Boom
honestly. and Boost reservedly.' "
AS an alliterative motto of many
BIS (Which are indicative of being
"busy'') the Pioneer would suggest
as motto for Bemidji that would
most certainly not soon be forgotten
Build, Boom, Boost Big Bemidji :"
The result would be beneficial, in
every sense.
