.ELAB0RATELY FURNISHED
ROOM FOR THE HOSPITAL
Rev. John 0'0wyer Will Donate Furn>
ishings for Room in Proposed
Hospital Annex

J Perhaps the most elaborate room
that is to be donated in the new
annex to st. Anthony hospital will
be furnished by Rev. Father John
O'Dwyer, priest of the St. Phillips
Catholic church.
Father O'Dwyer has taken UNI
usual interest in the hospital work,
and has been one of its staunchest
supporters in the past. -
This makes four rooms for which
furnishings will have been donated.
1t only goes to show that the work
in the past by the sisters of the
hospital is being and has been fully
appreciated.
There will no doubt be others who
wish to give something towards the
furnishings of rooms in this new
annex.

Miss Hazel Minnick is gathering
in the votes in no mean manner,
and with the support of her Spooner
friends is apt to spring into the lead
any day.
A Little Jaunt.
The White Streak" Model 10
Buick, the double of The Pioneer"
has made one more record for itself
in the last week that will stand
forth to it's credit for many days to
come. Mr.. C.. w. Jewett, with a
party of four, and their baggage
left Bemidji on. Monday at noon
for Park Rapids a distance of 81
miles over some of the worst hills
in Northern Minnesota making the
trip in few minutes over three
hours. Those who were included
in the party were Mr.. C. w. Jewett,
Mrs. Jewett, and their son Miller
and Miss Ollie Curtis, all of Black
duck. To use Mr.. Jewett's express
ion: We had a dandy trip without
mishap. Coming back Tuesday
night by lamp-light making the return
trip in three hours and fifteen minutes.
The roads we're in fairly good con-
dition and at some places I was able
to drive as high as forty-fve miles
an hour. but it's nothing wonderful
cause it's been done hundreds of
times before by other Buick drivers"
Wouldn't you like to be the owner
of the Pioneer auto so that you could
step into your machine and wnirl
away for a little jaunt of a couple
of days or even a few hours of
pleasure seeking. There is nothing
like it. It's the finest sport of the
present day and generation. Step
into the Northern Auto Gerage and
look over The Pioneer" and ask
Mr.. Moberg to explain its mechanism
to you in detail. You will find it
interesting and instructive.

SENT TO The ASYLUM:
AS CRIMINALLY INSANE
Attempted to Kill Carl BurkIand in
Roosevelt Township.-Shot Fussi.
Iade of Bullets.

Andrew Leistham, a dangerous
individual who was held to the
grand jury of this county on the
charge of assault in the first degree,
was this morning taken to St. Peter,
where he will be confined in that
part of the state asylum which is
set aside for the criminally insane.
On March 18th, in the Town of
Roosevelt, this county, Leitsham
made murderous assault on a
nelghbor, named Carl Burkland, and
came close to ending the earthly
career of Carl. The two men met
on a. road, when Leistham drew a
revolver and shot Burkland in the
back, inficting a slight wound.
Burkland grabbed the revolver and
wrenched it from Leistham's hand,
and ran across the country to make
his escape.
Leistham unslung a rifle which he
was carrying and fired six shots at
Burkland as the latter ran, none of
which hit the fleeing man.
Leistham was later arrested by a
constable and brought to Bemidii,
and upon being arraigned was held
to the grand jury on the charge. of

WoIgast.NeIson Fight Pictures We're
Good,

The pictures of the bloody VOL.
gast-Nelson prize fight, which were
shown at the Majestic theater last
night, attracted a large crowd Of
pleased spectators, who were almost
breathless during the entire run Of
the films. The pictures are excep-
tionally clear, with but an occasional
slight darkness due to clouds that
passed over the sun. They show
distinctly every move of the fight
and how the "Battler" got his.
c. L. Burr, we'll known in Bemidji,
has charge Of the pictures, and he
deserves much credit for bringing
here something really good in fight
pictures.

to the front end of the store.
F. A. Carter and family were
sleeping in the second story of the
building, and although the explosion
shook the structure considerably, no
one was injured.
While there are no further facts
obtainable, it is intimated that the
building was wrecked by parties who
live at Redby or in that vicinity,
and that the purpose of the act was
not robbery, as but little is missing
from the stock.
The sheriff's Office in Bemidji
was notified of the explosion, and
the officers will visit Redby this
afternoon.

Attention, BicycIists.

1t appears to me that the ordin<
ance regulating the riding on side
walks is being grossly violated by q
number of reckless riders who seem
determined to continue endanger-
ing the lives and limbs of pedes-
trains. In order that reckless rid
ing may be stopped entirely, I shall
hereafter arrest any and all persons
who are detected in violating this
ordinance.
The hours when riding on side
walks is allowed is from 6 to- 4. M,
and from s to 7 p. m.

The Top Notchers Today.

The votes are piling in from every
quarter and surprises are being
sprung all along the line in the
standing of the contestants. Double
Vote Week is making many radical
changes in the position of the candi.
dates and their votes. Are you
among those who are profting by
these changes? If you are not do
not loiter away your time. but gather
in the subscriptions and the double
votes you are entitled to for them,
providing you turn them in before
10 o'clock Saturday night. This is
your opportunity to pile up your
votes and win valuable prize.
Stop, Think, Consider.
Have you stopped to think and
consider the fact how many votes
years subscription brings you this
week? You get two for one, or
5000 votes for every years SUBJ
scription you turn in. Twelve of
them would put you in the lead of
the contest tonight or two for five
years would put you in the lead and
give you surplus of almost 10000.
Just think it over. Take the vot-
ing schedule and a piece of paper
and figure it out for yourself. This
is the opportunity of life time and
it is knocking at your very door.
Are you going to turn deaf ear to
it or grasp it with a firm hold.
To use the expression that is
familiar to you all Its like getting
money from home without writing
for it," It's a chance that in all
probability will never be repeated
and you had best make the most of
it while it is here.
Don't Forget the Photos.
You don't want to forget about
the photos that Mr.. N. L. Hakkerup
is going to give to the lady who
turns in the largest number of new
subscriptions by nine p. m. tonight.
Get busy and win them.
Personal Mention.
All the contestants are busy gath
ering votes, especially Miss Bertha
Benson, Maude McCauley, Besse
Cochran, Ruth Wilcox, Miss Dull
Ian, Miss Ollie Curtis, Edith Bord-
sen, Hazel Minnick and Jennie
Safer. Miss Anna Mae Danaher
has got slight attack of inactivity,
but in all probility will be gathering
in the votes as fast as ever again
this week. Miss Gladys Kreatz
favored the contest department with
a visit yesterday the first time in
two weeks, but she SAYS that she is
going to be more frequent caller
hereafter, which we sincerely hope
as Miss Kreatz, if she has mind to-,
is certainly a peerless vote getter.
