HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMAS
TO SEVENTEEN STUDENTS
Large Class Holds Convenience,
Exercises in Decorated National
Guard Armory. s.

Seventeen graduates of tho
Bemidji High school received
their diplomas last night from J.P.
Lair, president of the board of
education. The exercises were
held in the national guard Armory,
which had beeh decorated in the
high school and class colors.
L. D. Wickersham, of Des
Moines, Iowa, gave the commence
ment address, taking cd
Dreams as his subject. Mr..
Wickersham was form erly pastor
in Des Moines church, but is
now giving his time to the cause of
education, and is spending the
present month in Minnesota
towns.
"The boy of dreams is the
coming man of AFFAIRS" said
Mr.. Wickersham during the
course of his address. ..The day
dream comes first and the re-
atty later. We may never re
alize our day dream but we will
be better for having dreamed
it. But when the day dreamer
wills, God replies; aud when he
tries, God supplies.
| Education is for life, for power,
for capacity to work harder, and not
to be able to live by as little effort
as possible. It is for this that we
pour money into our schools and
colleges like water. Our born condi-
ton in life is mere accident; there
is nothing in name and it is what
we become that makes us what we
are"

CHAPTER xI-(Contipued.,

OhAfIHR Al.-(COntlnued.)
The storm lasted for ten hours. and
the weary travellers anxlously watched
for the morning About daybreak its
fury seemed to have spent itself, and
Hatteras. accompanied by Bell and AL
lamont. ventured to leave the tent.
They climbed q hill about 800 feet
high. which commanded a wide view.
But what metamorphosed region met
their gaze! All the Ice had completely
vanished, the storm had chased away
the winter. and stripped the soil every
where OF It's snow covering.
But Hatteras scarcely bestowed a
glance on surrounding objects; his ca
ger gaze was bent on the northern
horizon. which appeared shrouded In
black mist.
That may very likely be caused by
the ocean," suggested Clawbonny.
You are right. The sea must be
there" WAS the reply.
That tint is what we call the blink
OF open water" said Johnson.
Come on. then. to the sledge at
once. and let us get to this unknown
ocean," exclaimed Hatteras.
Their few preparations were soon
made. and the march resumed. Three
hours afterwards they arrived at the
coast, and shouted simultaneously,
''The seal the seal"
"Ay. and open seal" added IIatteras.
And SO 1t was. The storm had open
ed with the polar basin. and the loos
ened packs were drifting in ell direc-
lions. The icebergs had weighed an
Choir, and were sailing out into the
open sea-
This new ocean stretched far away
out Of sight. and not single island or
continent was visible.
After careful survey of the coast,
Hatteras determined to launch the
sloop that very day. and to unpack the
sledge. and get everything on board.
BY 8 o'clock nothing more remained to
be done. The sloop lay rocking grace
fully In the little bay. and all the car
go was on board except the tent and
what was required for the nights en-
campment.

CHAPTER XII.

The sight Of the sloop suggested to
Clawbonny the propriety of giving AL
tamont's namo to the little bay. His
proposition to that effect met with
unanimous approval and tho port was
forthwith disnified by the title of AL
lamont harbor.
According to the doctors calcula-
lions. tho travellers were now only
three degrees distant from the pole.
They had gone over 200 miles from
Victoria bay to Altamont harbor. and
wore In latitude 81 degrees minutes
and longitude 118 degrees 35 minutes.
Next morning by 8 o'clock all the re-
naming effects were on board. and the
preparations for departure completed.
A quarter Of an hour afterward the
little sloop sailed out of Altamont har-
Dor. and commenced her voyage of dis
oovery. The wind was favorable, but
there was little of 1t. and the weather
was positively warm.
Toward evening Hatteras and his
companions lost sight of tho coast.
Night came on. though the sun re-
manned just above the horizon. Since
the departure from Altamont harbor,
the sloop had made one degree far
Their north.
Tho next day brought no signs of
land; there was not oven speck on
the horizon.
At length. about In the evening, a
dim. hazy. shspeless sort of mist seem
ed to rise far away between sea and
sky. 1t was not cloud. for 1t was
constantly vanishing. and then reap

Hatteras was the first to notice this

said to be three men under treatment
at Mullan for threatened loss of sight.
Property Loss Million.
Instead of shrinking, the first esti-
mate of losses in the first that swept
Wallace Saturday night has nearly
doubled. A local newspaper says the
loss will reach the $1,OOO,0O0 mark.
Seventy-ive families, mostly those of
workingmen, are homeless and are be-
ing cared for in Wardner and Wallace
homes and hotels. The hospitals are
crowded with fire fighters more or less
severely burned. The largest losses
follow:
Occur d'Alene Iron Works foundry
and warehouse, 100000.
Standard Oil company, $4,000.
Occur d'Alene Hardware company,
$150,O0O.
Times Printing company, $4,000.
Worstell Furniture company, $4,000.
Smith & Fisher, $4,000.
sunset brewery, $4,000.
o. r. & N. new passenger station and
row of boxcars, $4,000.
Pacific hotel and annex, owned by
w. l.. James of Spokane, $4,000.
No attempt has been made to list the
losses of residence owners, who number
between rs and 100.
The principal residence district, where
the more pretentious homes are located,
was saved by heroic efforts.
For time the work of the whole fire.
fighting force, including every able
bodied man in the city, was centered on
saving the Wallace hospital and tho
handsome home of Angus Sutherland. If
the Sutherland home had caught it
would have been impossible to save
the homes in that part of the city.
AT O'Clock tonight the fire had
burned itself out on the hills to the
south and west.

Wallace, Idaho.-Driven by heavy
gale, the forest fires that have sur
rounded Wallace for weeks swept over
the tops of the hills Saturday and
crept down the slopes at the east end
of town.
Twenty or thirty houses on the north
side of the mouth of Burke canyon
burst into flames about 'clock, and
the flames rapidly spread to the Occur
d 'Alene Iron works. On the southeast
corner of the town about so houses on
the south side of the Mullan canyon
caught and the fire swept down the hill
to the Sunset brewery, the warehouses
of the Occur d'Alene Hardware COM
pany and several smaller warehouses
and dwellings.
Rough estimates of the damage were
placed at 100000. The largest loss
was in the warehouse of the Occur
d 'Alene Hardware company, valued at
$150,000. The plant of the Sunset
Brewing company, held at $4,000, is
also destroyed.
Wallace, Idaho, Aug. 21.-Safe for
the moment at least, the dreaded wind
having died down Sunday night, the
people of Wallace are looking to the
hills around them through blood-shot,
heavy-lidded eyes, watching forest fires
that ring the city around on every side,
lest they should break through and de-
stroy the city. Lines of hose are laid
along the west side of the city, where
the fire will strike first if it comes, and
all available firefghters are being held
ready to start work at once.
The list of fatalities will run high.
There are parties of fire fighters scat
tered through the woods everywhere,
and it is regarded as certainty that a
great number of men must have been
cut off by the flames. 1t is said that not
less than so have persisted.

BUSINESS men Who

STAND NO SHOW WITH THE
CLEAR HEADED FELLOW WHO
KEEPS HIS BRAIN IN A STATE
WHERE HE IS ALWAYS READY
FOR AN EMERGENCY.

The Neal Cure, the famous remedy
that cures the drink habit in three
days time, is business mans remedy,
for business today demands the best
that Is in man, the best OF his eff
forts, the best Of his thoughts and
the best of his foresight. II is hardly
necessary to call attention to the fact
that the man who is ''tanked up" most
of his time is in no condition to do his
best in graphing with the problems
of his business.
IL you are business man you will
naturally want to know facts in rela-
ton to remedy that is claimed to
cure all desire for, and all habit of
drinking liquors In three days time.
The Neal Cure is administered to every
patient who comes to the Institute
with the direct guarantee that a per-
feet cure will be made In three days
or the treatment is free. That is a
business proposition and one that will
appeal to business men. If you are a
drinking man the Neal Cure will cure
you in three days time; we give a
bond to do 1t.
Here Is what one business man who
has observed the effect of The Neal
Cure upon his friends has to say; he
knows that The Neal Cure makes good
