Going Some, mat guaranteed
laugh producer, win be the attraction
at the Nixon opera house next Friday
night, with superb cast of TWEEN
ty fun makers and a magnificent
array of special scenery. Nothing so
funny and entertaining has come into

about lot of college boys and girls
and couple of outfits of cowpunchers
and a phonograph-mustn't t forget
the pronograph. because that's the
pivot around which all the fun wrirls.

might permit of her transfer. Now,
however, the naval militia have her
and want to keep her, and to compli-
cate matters still further, the marine
hospital service has got its eye on the
Portsmouth, and would like to have
it assigned to duty as a quarantine

navy department is in quandary, and
does not know what to do about it.
Make Them Fireproof
Several cases have happened recent
ly where cigarettes thrown from win
dows have set afre awnings on win
dows below, giving the fire department

Similar occurrences have been noted
in other cities. It's wonder, the
iokesmith suggests, that they would
not get some less inflammable materi-
al to make awnings of.

G. B. Glunz, warden of the Wyom-

day morning on s. p. No. with Tom
Walsh, alias John Harris, and escaped

HEAVY RAIN AT CASS LAKE
Fixes up Crops and Puts Out Forest
Fires in Vicinity.

Cass Lake, July T. A heavy rain
fell here early this morning which
did much to improve conditions in
this vicinity as vegetation of all
kinds required moisture for the past
two weeks. 1t also put damper
on the numerous forest fires that
have been springing up around here
and threatened to do considerable
damage.
Word comes from Bena to the
effect that Fred Crow, an old and
respected citizen of that place died
suddenly of apoplexy Tues day
morning. The Fourth of July fes-
tivities were taking place in the
evening and Mr.. Crow attended
the dance, after which he ate a
hearty meal, and retired for the
night. At about three o'clock he
complained of not feeling we'll and
the end came in very few min
utes. Mr.. Crow was 81 years of age
and during the past several years
had charge of the large hotel at
Bena. Mrs. Crow is seriously i'll
and suffering from the shock of her
husbands death.

CRO0KSToN SPECIAL,

Crookston, July 8:-Great y
exaggerated reports have been pub
lished regarding the damage done
by hail in Polk County Tuesday
night. AS a matter of fact of four
townships, Northland was the only
township hit seriously and not a
fourth of the area of that township
was touched. Proceeding east a
strip varying from a half mile to a
mile in width was damaged in Tabor,
Angus and Brandt townships but
the strip was not continuous by any
means, the hail jumping several
miles in places, and many fields
were improved more by the rain
that fell than the damage by hail
will amount to.

were being jeopardized and this year
will take no chances of losing the
Congressman for Polk Co.
This sentiment has been expressed
by those who were active in this
fight against him two years ago and
who advocated cutting STEVENSON.
Therefore from a survey of the field
from this point, Mr.. Bjorge has a
very slim chance of winning out
though he may have strength in
other portions of the district to off.
set the additional strength Steiner
son will show here. At all events
Congressman Stevenson is not
going to be caught mapping, and if
he is beaten. it will not be because Of
overconfdence as he is laying his
wires just as though he expected a
desperate contest.

CLUB MAY BACK DREDGERS
Member. Want Inlet and Outlet Of Lake
H. Deepened at Once.

Members of the Bemidji Boat club
are being urged to attend meeting
of the club which will be held in the
parlors of the Markham hotel Satur-
day night. At the meeting. the
question of dredging out the inlet
and outlet of the lake will be taken
up and those calling the meeting
hope to have the club decide to 20
ahead with the work. In that case,
dredging will be started Monday.
1t has been many years since the
lake has been as low as it is at
present. There is barely enough
water to float many of the launches
to their boat houses and the danger
from sunken logs is becoming greater
every day. A good rain fell the
other night but did not affect the
river as the ground absorbed all the
water that it could get. IT, -.
The dredging of the outlet and
inlet will not have much effect on
the stage of the water but will be an
aid to navigation. For a week past
launches drawing over eighteen
inches of water have found it diff
cult to get down the river and i'm
possible to get up. The rocks a,
the outlet have already bent severa.

Bemidji won first place in the
association wet test yesterday by
making the run and getting water
in 26 3.5 seconds. Ada and Be.
midi ran in the morning and Ada
made the run in 81 seconds, being
held for water.
Crookston and Warren waited un-
It'll after the races at the Fair grounds
track as they did not want to run
so short a time before the afternoon
events. -
; Crookston made a good run in
the afternoon and the water was
right after the boys so that
by the time the coupling was
broken, the water was there.
Schmidt, who was to put the
nozzle on for Crookston, failed to
connect and the team was dis
qualified. Warren made a fast run
and lost to Bemidji by less than a
second.
. The Warren boys were the happy
ones last night and made the city
ring with their noise. They took
5000 home to divide among them
selves and the fact that they won
the most points and the most money
served to make them feel pretty
good. Warren was kind of dark
horse" in the tournament and few
expected the team to make the ex-
cellent showing that it did.
81 Staske, who won three Individual
firsts, is from Warren and helped
materially in putting his team in
first place. The Warrens boys were
heavy as we'll as fast and this gave
them a pulling power that carried
their truck to victory.
Bemidji won second place in the
tournament and the team will divide
500. Crookston won third and
will divide $163.88. Ada took home
$45.13 to divide and Hallock got
$23.75 on being the best appearing
company in the parade. The Hal
lock team did not stay through the
tournament so won none of the other
prizes.
The city hall was crowded last
night with firemen and town people.
The Ada, Warren and Crookston
teams could not leave until early
this morl-ing, as there was no sleep
for anyone, they spent time dane

TEN CENTS PER WEEK.
BEM|DJ| POPULATION
ESTIMATED At 7,o85
Figures Compiled From Number Of
Names in New Directory-To be
Published August l.

John Ley, who has been in
Bemidji for the past six weeks com.
piling the first city directory, will
leave tomorrow for St. Cloud to
start work there. The matter for
the local book has already been sent
in to the publishers and Mr.. Ley
says that if there are no delays, the
directory will be ready for distrib.
ution the first of August. The
work on the book is being done in
Dubuque, Iowa, by firm which
makes speciality of directories and ,
catalogues. It is said to have the
finest plant in the world for this
class of matter and it is barely posi-
BILE that the directory will be out in
ten days. It depends on the num-
Der of orders ahead of Bemidji.
According to the figures of the
directory. Bemidji has a population
of 7,o85. This number is figured by
multiplying the names in the direc-
tory by IN, which is the standard
multiple used by all directory CON-
panies in this country. AS only per-
sons over eighteen have their names
in the book. the multiple is used to
figure in all those under eighteen
when estimating the population. It
is expected that the census report
will be nearly thousand less.
Mr.. Ley has been in the directory
publishing business for nineteen
years and is considered an expert
BY the trade. He says that the city
of Bemidji covers twenty square
miles and that few people have 4
comprehensive knowledge of its
size because so many of the homes
are hidden in pine groves. The city
has plenty of room to grow and he
sees great future for the Hub of
Northern Minnesota"
Speaking of estimating population,
Mr.. Ley said: I have had an in
teresting experience with a certain
Minnesota city. The population as
estimated from the directory has
been over 10000 for nearly fifteen
years and the last directory showed
it to be nearly 10000, but the popu.
lation is always given as about
5000. This is due to the fact that
the thirty-three saloons of that town
now pay licenses of $500 each where
as they would have to pay $1,000
each if the population was over 10,-
900. There are several breweries
in this city and they are strong
enough to control the reports as to
the population.
In the recent census taken by
the government, every census-taker
had to be approved by the Com
mercial club before he could be
given An appointment. The club
was taking no chances with any
population boosters and I confident
ly expect to see the government
report put that population some
where under 10000. You see it
means $4,000 year in licenses to
