Son Witness.

New York, July 1s-Mrs Hetty Green,
who is in her 18th year, was baptized last
Saturday afternoon In the Episcopal

tho presence Of Col. Edward Rowland
Robinson Green. ON whose shoulders have
fallen much Of his mothers great bust
ness responsibilities
Father Elmendorf. as the clergyman
Is called by his practitioners. is distantly
related to Mrs Green and for five or six
years he has been endeavoring to In
duce her to think less of things earthly.
He Kept his secret to himself and labored
diligently In his role OF missionary by
writing letters or carrying the message
to her office In person.
Father Elmendorf went to me Trinity
Building, III Broadway, where Mrs.
Green has her office, on Saturday. AL
though the great maiority of workers
In the financial district had taken adj
vantage of the holiday Mrs. Green was
sun busy, but as soon as she had
Strengthened out everything she said she
was ready to go with the minister Col
onel Green had his ear in readiness and
the trio crossed the river to jersey City
on their spiritual mission
MRS. GREEN NOT RECOGNIZED.
Several persons noticed Mrs Green
as she alighted from the car and en-
tered the rectory. but nobody recog-
nizcd her. Even the sexton of the
church was kept in ignorance The
baptismal ceremony was conducted in
the church. Owing to the advanced
age of Mrs. Green sponsors were not
required, according to the church
laws, and Colonel Green merely acted
as witness. The Greens returned to
New York after the ceremony.

of about seventy Gye gallons per

For one week in June, Bemidji

For one week in June, Bemidji
will have the best possible opportun
ity to eradicate this impression.
The first shock will come when the
visitors step off the train and see
brick buildings, paved streets, and
electric lights. The next will com ,
when they get out into the residence
section and see Bemidji's substantial
homes, schools and public buildings.
Those who are fortunate enough to
get a trip into the surrounding
country and see the splendid farms
near the city will totally recast their
ideas and thenceforth become enthu-
siastic boosters for this city.
But there are many things to be
done before that week if the city is
to make the best impression that it
can. The streets must be kept clean,
the lake shore at the foot of Third
street must be fixed, the plot in front
of the boat houses must be seeded
and laid out into walks and gardens.
and in a general way, back yards aud
alleys must be rid of many rubbish
piles.
It can be done and must be done
if Bemidji is to be remembered a.
the cleanest, liveliest, and all-round
best town on the circuit.

City Advertising.

Elsewhere in this issue will be
found an article on the University
week to be held here next month.
The list of names of those who will
come as special lecturers and enter
tainers contains some of the most
prominent people in the state. The
Glee and Dramatic clubs will bring
in many young people who have new
er been in this part of Minnesota
before. To have them carry away a
favorable impression of Bemidji is
the best advertising that the city
can get.
Those who live here the year
around, may be surprised to learn
that many people of the Twin Cities
and the southern part of the state
Jock upon Bemidji as being lum.
Der camp settlement, small town
located in the heart of the pine
woods, one in which lumberjacks anG
Indians congregate at all times and
make the nights especially hideous.,
Bemidji is thought of as away up in
the north country where nobody
lives but lumbermen, Indians, home.
