One Horse and Twenty-Five Pigs Cremated at Minneapos
Company Camp-Mayor Parker Losses
Include Camp Equipment
Section Men, Under Direction of Roadmaser FIGHT Flames
But Not Until l,4OO Posts And Ties in
Piles Are Consumed

Forest fires in the vicinity of Be-
midi have done thousands of
dollars worth of damage and unless
the rain has quenched them threaten
to do more.
Between Funkley and Kelliher the
flames have eaten away much tim
Der and other property.
The Northern Cedar company, in
this district has lost 1000 poles and
the same number of posts.
At the next camp, that of the
Minneapolis Cedar company, one
horse and twenty-five pigs were
cremated and all the camp equip
ment is burned together with cedar
in the yard and camp sheds.
At the next camp, owned by John
c. Parker, Mayor of Bemidji, eight
sets of sleds were consumed, as was
also water tank, rut cutter, snow

BURGLARS IN TWO STORES
Rood's and O'Leary-Bowsers Places
Broken Into Last Night.

Burglars probably boys, broke into
the O. c. Rood general store and
the O'Leary-Bowser dry goods and
mems furnishing store last night.
At the Rood store the robbery
was discovered at 11:3o when L. E.
Rood, brother of the proprietor,
entered and found the cash till torn
from its place, and the contents
amounting to $1.75 missing. A wal
let containing valuable papers was
also gone.
Footprints indicate that therobber
wore a No.7 shoe. Entrance was
gained by taking out light of glass
at the rear of the store.
At the O'Leary-Bowser store the
entrance was made much in the same
way. Here the thief secured only
IS cents in cash. The proprietors
are not sure yet whether any CLOTH
ing or other goods was removed.

BUSINESS MEN KILL BEAR
Wounded Beast Bagged When it Seeks
Safety In Tree Near Erskine

Crookston, Sept. 2:-Yesterday
afternoon R. D. Ness, a merchant
of Erskine sighted bear about a
quarter of mile from that place,
and took shot at it wounding the
animal which limped into a nearby
grove.
A bear hunt was organized by the
business men of Erskine. The bear
was found up a tree and shot.
She was found to weigh nearly 500
pounds. A half grown cub was also
killed.
Bears are becoming more numer-
GUS every day and are causing much
Inconvenience.

After Four Years. Auditor Obtains
Penalties and Interest on 5000
Acres, Town of hammers.
MEANS $1,800 FOR ROAD FUNDS
Property Owned by North American
Security Land Company Which
Sought to Secure Abatement.

Beltrami county has just won ap.
proximately $1,000 as the result OF
the determination on the part OF
County Auditor R. C. Hayner to
collect taxes due from the North
American Land and Security Com.
pany, MINNESOTA corporation,
owning 5000 acres in the town OF
hammers. ~
The money thus received will
liquidate the entire Indebtedness OF
hammers and will add something
like $1,000 to the road aud bridge
:und of Beltrami county and will
substantially increase other county
funds.
The losing fight put up by the
land company is interesting. The
company first came before the
board of county commissioners in
November 1909, and asked abate.
ment of penalties and interest on de-
linquent taxes for the years 19O6-7-8
on the grounds that Beltrami county
was deeply in debt and that the
town of hammers also needed
money.
The company was willing to pay
the taxes and interest at the rate of
E per. cent providing all other
penalties, interests and costs were
abated, which would have meant a
loss to the county of several hund.
dred dollars.
This request was put over until
April, 5, 1910. Prior to this Lam.

New Mill at Baudette

Baudette, Minn., Sept. 2.-The

and a half down the Rainy River
from Baudette. 1t is an up to.date
mill, with all modern improvements,

section. It operates two bands and

vote of twenty-six to three decided
to ask county commissioners to &C.
cept the land company's offer.
1t was at this point that County
Auditor Hayner said to the board:
I do not believe it is just to place
a premium as an inducement to a
corporation to allow. their tax to
become delinquent and to give them
an opportunity of securing an abate.
ment that would not be granted to
any individual, and I hold that if
such action be taken that you ought
to make it a blanket abatement Civ
ing to every settler throughout Bel
taami county the privilege of paying
all delinquent taxes without penal
ties and that it would be only fair
and just if you intend to treat a cor.
poration in that manner that you
grant such blanket abatement and
unless you do I shall refuse to con-
cur in such an action"
The board rejected the applica.
ton.
Mr.. Hayner then felt that If par.
ties with money, could be shown, as
business investment, that the
purchasing of the state assignment
certificates of these delinquent taxes
would be a good investment, that
they could be induced in that way
to put the money up, and thus assure
the taxes to Beltrami county.
Mr.. Hayner corresponded with
Charles Chrisman, an old college
mate at the university of Iowa, now
located at Ortonville, MINI. Mr..
Chrisman became interested and as
a result has agreed on behalf of ]. J.
Fry of Ortonville to take over the
state assignment certificates owned
by the North American Company
and has just deposited with the
county auditor a large check to bind
the bargain.
MI. Hayner has a staff of clerks
at work preparing the necessary
records.
This does not mean that the
land company will necessarily
lose its hammers holding as they
will have a certain time in which
to redeem the property, but it
does mean that Beltrami county
has, after four years, been able
to collect its taxes.

Cleveland, Sept. 2.-Mr. Rockefeller
has not spoken to his Bible class for
several Sundays. When ne arrived
here for the summer he was talkative,
but lately has refused interviews and
says little to any one outside the
household.
It is said that Mrs. Rockefeller OBJ
jected to certain published interviews
with him in which Mr.. Rockefeller
was quoted as renouncing wealth and
suggesting a new religion.
MI. Rockefeller, it is said, while ad-

frugal of public utterances.

there will be under way the work necessary to
commemorate worthily the life and the deeds of
the Rail Splitter President"
One of the plans is for great highway to be
known as the Lincoln Road the Lincoln High
way, to connect the capital with the battlefield of
Gettysburg. 1t is held by many students of Eng
lish that the short address which Abraham Lin
coin delivered on the battlefield of Gettysburg Is
one of the finest examples of expression In the
mother tongue known to the world Of letters.
Lincoln is inseparably connected with Gettysburg,
and the fact Is due almost wholly to the speech
which he delivered on the anniversary of the bat

paration except that of thought, consisting in

The senate committee on library, which has in
charge memorial work, reported favorably bill
authorizing the expenditure of 100000 for the
erection of a memorial arch upon the camping
ground of the American army at Valley Forge, in
the state of Pennsylvania. The library committee
some time ago, recommended and secured the
passage of bill appropriating money for the
ton in Washington Of statue to John Barry
commodore in the United States navy during the
Revolutionary war monument also Is to be
erected to Christopher Columbus and part of the
cost will be paid by the people of the United
States. Statues to Kosciusko and Pulaski have
been erected within the year. and other statues
and monuments, either have been put in place. or
are now well the road to completion 1t is
said that the patriotic societies, by their excellent
educational work throughout the country. have so
aroused the sentiment of the people that the
pressure which has been brought to bear on con-
gress properly to recognize the services Of the
dead and gone has been irresistible
A good deal of interest attaches to the pro-
posed memorial arch at Valley Forge. 1t was
there that Gen. George Washington and his army
passed the awful winter of 1777-S time of suffer
ing, starvation and danger from the enemy. As
has been said bill authorizing the expenditure
of 100000 has been reported favorably from the
library committee. There seems to be no opposi-
ton in congress to the appropriation, and bill
sanctioning 1t probably viii be passed at the next
session

houses contained libraries consisting
of a score of diminutive books and
each book contained childs story
