Bemidji Daily Pioneer,
Bemidji, MINI.
My Dear Mr.. Wilson:
Answering your esteemed fav-
or of the 18th, would say that
for some time have been en-
deavoring to arrange for local
Bemidji sleeper but find that the
sleeping car business to and from
Bemidji at the present time does
not warrant an exclusive sleeper
for that point.
think the time is soon at
hand when we will be justified
in trying the experiment and put
it on, and you may depend on
our doing SO at the earliest pos
sible moment. You, no doubt,
- have noticed I built track at
the new Union Station expressly
for the purpose of setting out
such car.
In this connection I might
state it is our expectation to put
on an exclusive Bemidji sleeper
during State Fair week in order
to enable our friends in your
city and vicinity to travel to and
from the Fair as comfortably
and expeditfously as possible.
Yours very truly,
w. H. Gemmell.
At the present time passenger,
from Bemidji must get up in time tt
leave the train at 4:1O, the time i
is due here. Under the special sleep
er plan they could sleep as long a.
tehy wished.

Twas All Mere Accident.

udull any lued LudL we were
to create such disturbance" said
Mr.. Reynolds, who laughingly com
mented on his experience. "About
O'Clock in the evening Judge Spurirer
discovered that his wallet was gone.
We went to the Markham hotel and
looked for it there and when there
was no sign of it we decided it
must have dropped while we were
riding through Nymore.
''To permit it to remain on the Ny
more road would be hazardous, we
figured, because of the danger of its
being ground into. the road by pass
ing teams. Therefore, we secured a
lantern and started out. We did not
expect to be gone long, so I did not
telephone my wife. Lantern in hand
we searched every foot of the way
to Nymore, and still no wallet.
Always a Little Ways Ahead.
Judge Spurirer was sure it must
be not far away and l felt that it
had been jostled from his pocket a
point where the road is extremely
rough for short distance, so we
trudged on in the night throug 9Th the
road in the forest the other side of
Nymore. $50 -. ~. H.
"Romping along sandy road with
a lantern in hand scanning every
foot of ground is an interesting but
somewhat slow and tedious task.
Therefore it became late in the night
before we realized it, and by the time
we reached the Albert Schulz place
it was a. m.
Somewhat Discouraged at 3 A. M.
"By this time we were pretty we'll
discouraged and Judge Spurirer
aroused Mr.. Schulz with the intention
of employing him to bring us back to
Bemidji. Instead, at Mr.. Schulz's in
vitation, we decided to take a nap
and return in daylight. At that time
l thought of calling my wife on the
telephone, but decided that she would
be asleep and did not wish to awak-
en- her.
when it became light we awak-
ened and could not resist the tempta-
ton to make a final effort at recov-
ering the wallet. We pushed on to
the rough section where 1 fully ex-
pected to find the missing wallet, but
without result, and we rather mourn
fully retraced our steps, and much
to our surprise, near the Schulz barn
yard where we had stopped the day
before to let down the bars, lay the

doctor attempted to make a short
turn. This, together with the red

however, were still on the job, and
when the machine had been cranked

Again the doctor started forward
and again the machine took to the

had used before, but with even less

Cox Appeals to Sportsmen.

rs
p .sAll spotsmen are interested in
the protection of our forests This
could not be otherwise, since the for
ests constitute the natural home of
all big game within the state. With
the disappearance of the woods the
game will disappear also. Many of
our game fishes can live only in our
wooded lakes and streams; the pro-
lection afforded by the forest and the
character of run-off resulting from a
forest cover appears essential to
their existence and propagation.
The Lure of the Woods.
"The sportsman, before all others,
the forest for it's own
sake. The lure of the woods is one
of the greatest incentives to the cam
per, hunter or fisherman. Who would
care to go on lengthy canoe trip
or camp in the northern wilderness
were it not for the call of the woods?
"The forests of this state have
been steadily reduced in area and i'm
poverished in character by fires, and
this is an appeal to you to do all in
exercising care in camp and by put
your power to prevent forest fires by
ting out small fires when you find
them.
