The doors will open an hour earlier to permit people to see the great menagerie and hear Albert C. Sweets famous military band.
 The two performances here will be given exactly as presented in Madi- son Square Garden. New York City, and the Chicago Coliseum. Not one detail has been changed since the spring opening.

great relief of his guest There Is a saying in the Talmud that he who causes another to blush is as if he hal shed that others blood; and SD con versely he who spares another's blush saves some wounding of the spirit. For good manners really call for much chivalry. much heroic self-control, and living for the moment in the eXperi- enCe of another. For so soon as we go below the surface We find that manners are one with morals. since the taproOt of both are the same. That famous order of Grants by which Lee was spared the soldiers pain of sur rendering his sword. is a happy in stance of the best" manners, since it combines chivalry and magnanimity alike. a full appreciation of the situa- tion with a fine consideration for an others feelings.

A Good Scheme

Miss Elvira Flint, who teaches the
Forada school a few miles south of
Alexandria, has taken a step forward
in the progressive" education move
tent. Miss Flint has adopted the
plan of serving hot soups to the child
rem with their ordinary noontime lunch,
brought from home. The plan has
proven so popular that the people of
the district are enthusiastic over it.
The ''menu" includes the various
cereals made into a thin porridge or
soup, potato soup, chicken soup, etc.
Partial preparation is made in the
homes, the families of the district
alternately furnishing. The prepare
ton is completed at the close of the
forenoon session and served hot with
the cold lunch carried by the children.
The children have divided into bands
for serving and washing dishes. The
work is done quietly and with dispatch
and the schoolroom left in as neat con-
dition as after the ordinary noontime
lunch. minneapolis Journal.

!. T., Becker Doing Well

A letter from j. P. Becker, who is
now residing neal Rimby, Alberta,
states that he and family are enjoying
good health and while they have con-
siderable snow the weather is fairly
nice. They have their cellar filled with
home canned fruit and having all the
meat, consisting of v~enison and bear
meat they need and seem to be ina
fair way to pass the winter with a con-
siderable degree of comfort in the far
north. Mr.. Becker relates an interest
ing experience of himself and party of
friends a short time ago when they
trailed a deer all day and came upon
him at shutdown and pierced him with
three rifle shots at once killing him
instantly. Investigation showed that
they had a nice three year old weighing
100 pounds. On several occasions he
has seen a bear trotting across his
farm, and chickens, partridges and
pheasants are very numerous. He
states that Eva shot three pheasants
one morning from the door of the
house. Mr.. Becker has been awarded a
favorable decision in a land contest
that has been pending for some time.
The land is three miles from town ard
is valued at $1,000. Their friends here
will be glad to know they are getting
along nicely. -Crandall times.

VERY FOOLISH JUMP
MADE BY ONE WHO KNOWS
GREAT DEAL BETTER
GETS OFF MOVING TRAIN
This is One of The Times Where
The Jumper Was Fortunate
And Escaped With Moth
ing But a Bump in The
SnOwdrift

Sunday of last week Marshal
Denny, of Andover, took a notion it
was about time he visited his Webster
friends for a few hours. The passen-
ger had gone but there vas a through
freight and the genial captain made up
his mind he would tackle that and run
the chances of getting off here. When
he was near what is known as the Hit
crossing, about a mile west of town,
where there is some little upgrade he
made the effort to jump. He missed
bis footing and received a proper roll
ing in the snow and some minor
injuries. He was lucky. When he
missed his footing his rolling might
just as we'll been under the train as in
the snow the other way. We con-
graduate him on getting away this
time. There is only one time to get off
from a train and that is when it is at a
dead stand.

Last week Rev. Clarence Riggs, of
the Episcopal church put a notice in
the papers that he would have a meet
ing for men only at his home on Friday
evening and, as a special inducement,
mentioned that refreshments would be
served during the evening. The
weather was pretty poor for a party
that evening, but a great many fellows
got curious as to what a minister who
was running a bachelors hall would do
to entertain a bunch of men and when
all were assembled it was about one of
the largest parties of the kind ever
held in Webster. The reverend is a
prince of an entertainer. He had cards
for those who wished them, other
games to amuse others. Everyone was
made to feel right at home. A most
pleasant evening was enjoyed by all.
Refreshments-we came pretty nearly
emitting mention of them as we were
not PRESENT. the gentlemen present
say that the preacher had a fine spread.
They also say if he is doing his own
cooking he is a prize for some girl as
they had just about the finest bach
elor's lunch ever served and a whole
lot of it.

PETITION BEING CIRCULATED
Which Will Effect The appointment
Of Municipal Judge.

Several of the Bemidii LAWYERS
have today signed a petition, which
is being circulated by J. H. Loud,
which is to be sent to the legislature,
as an amendment to a bill which is
to be put before the law makers, the
effect of the petition is as follows:
THAT in case of the sickness of the
municipal court judge the mayor
shall appoint lawyer to fill the va
cancy, said lawyer to have practiced
law for not less than two years. >
The above, as far as the Pioneer
has been able to learn, is the main
clause of the proposed bill.
If this bill should pass the Iegis-
lature it would without doubt effect
the municipal court of this city. for
during the past year the judge has
been i'll and his place has been taken
by justice of the peace Pendergast.

ABE. LINCoLN'S CLEMENCy
A Story of the Civil War Illustrated
At the Majestic.

Perhaps no more vivid protrayal
of the peculiar character that made
Lincoln great has ever been present.
ed to the American people. In this
picture Lincoln drops the mantle of
the statesman, the leader and stern
commander of the federal army and
is shown in that loving and forgiving
character that has so endeared his
memory.
The management of the Majestic
learning that this picture was to be
produced at once began negotiations
to secure it for Bemidjis popular
play house and it was only yesterday
that Mr.. Woodmansee received tele-
gram stating that this film would
reach Bemidji today on the noon
train.
Even though extra expense was
necessary to secure this picture there
will be no advance in prices.
There will also be shown laugh
able comedy entitled "The Sanitar-
ium."
The management requests that as
many of the patrons as are able to
be at the theatre at 1880 when the
program starts. This request is
made that no more will have to be
turned away on account of room than
is absolutely necessary.

Four Persons Called to Explain Their
Request to be Appointed Petit
Jurors.
SUCH AN ACT IS A CRIME
Hearing Will be Had Before Judge
Stanton, at Chambers, February
Twenty First.

Papers now in the hands of Sheriff
Hazen recall an interesting incident
OF the last term of court in this
county.
During the trial of the case of
Matilda Akerberg sEs. F.. A. Mayo. it
became necessary for the clerk of
court to deliver special venire to
summon petit jurors to Coroner
1bertson instead of the sheriff. as
ordinarily.
The coroner duly summoned the
required jurors, but during their
examination it was suspected for
some reason that certain persons
had approached the coroner just be-
fore the special venire was placed in
his hands and requested him to
select them as jurors.
The court then made inquiry of
the coroner as to such intimated
occurrence and that official promptly
reported that he had been so an
preached, and furnished the names
OF the offending parties.
The incident attracted consider
able public comment, but nothing
further was done at the time. d..
Now it appears that Judge Stan
ton deems it proper to Investigate
the matter and for that purpose has
summoned the alleged offenders, four
in number, to appear before him
next Tuesday to show cause why
they should not be punished for con-
tempt of court.
The laws of Minnesota provide
that "every person who shall directly
or Indirectly solicit or request any
officer charged with the duty of pre-
pairing any jury list to put his name,
or the name of any other person, on
any such list, shall be guilty of a mis-
demeanor."
1t may be that the proceedings
will serve to impress certain people
of this community, and other locali-
ties also, with the knowledge that
the unlawful interference with court
proceedings cannot be practiced with
impunity.

.DRAYMAn IS ARRESTED
John Marin Charged With Having
Run Business Without License.

Yesterday John Marin was arrest
ed by Chief of Police Joseph Harring-
ton for having run a dray line in the
city without license
There has been little trouble be-
tween the council and a few of the
draymen for the past month because
of the fact that the draymen have not
paid arp their past due license money.
The city clerk was ordered to Sc
cure the money from the draymen
but they refused to pay, saying, that
they did not feel they should pay for
a license when they were not proper
1y protected by the council, in regard
to who could do work, rightfully be-
longing to the draymen.
At the last meeting of the council,
the city attorney was instructed to
begin proceedings against the dray-
men, and the arrest of Marin yester-
day was the result.
On January oath of this year
Marin took out license, and it is
stated in the warrant issued yester-
day, that he was charged with hay
ing run dray without a license on
the 18th.
Marin's hearing has been set for
next Thursday in the municipal
court.
