THE GANG TESTIFIES

New York, Nov. Histories of
the Gambler Rosenthal murder were
told by the three gunner "Gyp the
Blood" Whitley Lewis and Lefty
L ouie'-today in the picturesque
Language of the Bowery. The three
men told almost identical stories of
the murder, accusing "Bridgie" Web
Der, Harry Vallen and the mysterious
stranger of firing the shots that kill
ed Rosenthal. Themselves they pic
tured as innocent bystanders, lured
to the spot by BALD" Jack Rose.
fDago Frank, the fourth gun
man, all testified, was not on the
scene at all. Frank will have
chance to tell his story today.

THE TURKEYS ARE HERE
Are Being Held For Safe Keeping BY
the Pastor of the Presbyterian
Church.
TO BE SERVED AT MEMS DINNER

Turkeys for the mems dinner.
which will be given Wednesday eve
ming in the Presbyterian church
have arrived and are pronounced by
Rev. S. E. P. White to be beauties,
having all the necessary require
ments, essential to a THANKSGIVING
feast. They are young, fine, fat and
juicy, said Reverend White this
morning, land owing to the scarcity
of this bird at this season of the
year, I'll tell no one where they are
being kept. I am the possessor of a
five shooter and an automatic high
power rifle, which I believe will be
ample protection
The dinner will be served by the
men of the church on this occasion
and if one judges from their past
reputation. Reverend White will
have to look up additional turkeys
to feed the multitudes that may
assemble on this event

AsToR GETS $e5,ooo,ooo.
Arrives at his Twenty first Birthday
And is Master of Fortune,

New York, Nov. William Vim
cent Astor, head of the American
branch of the Astor family since the
death of his father, John Jacob AS
tor, who went to his death on the
steamer Titanic on the morning of
April Is, 1912, reached his majority
today and by virtue of this fact came
into the full control of the Astor for
tune which is conservatively estima-
ted at $65,0O0,0O0. When the estate
was appraised by experts shortly af-
ter the death of Col John Jacob Astor
to determine the amount of inheri-
lance tax to be paid, the aggregate
value of the estate was placed at be-
tween $75,000,000 and $S0,000,O0O.
AS these figures are official and pro-
badly as nearly correct as possible
under Che circumstances, the smount
of the fortune into the possession Of
which young William Vincent Astor
came today, may easily be estimated:

CHICAGO STILL HOPEFUL

Chicago, Nov. 15-With the end
Of the conference football season a
week away, Saturdays game at Min
neapolis between the University of
Wisconsin and Minnesota is expect
ed to settle the conference champion
ship. If Wisconsin wins, the cham
pionship will go to Madison. If
Minnesota wins, the teams still will
have Chicago to play on November
25, the last game of the season.
The University of Chicago coaches
and hackers do not predict that the
Maroon team can hope to more than
make fair showing against Min
nesota. If Minnesota wins and at
such cost in crippled players, Chica-
go could defeat the team week
from Saturday, the conference cham
plonship would be lost in triple tie.
with each of the leading teams hav-
ing one defeat to it's record.

Judge H. A. Simmons Called Az Wit
ness in Case to 1ndentify
Bottles.
HEARING WAS HELD LAST NAY
Was Bound Over to Federal Tenn
of Court At Fergus
Falls.

H. A. Simons, Judge of the num-
cipal court of this city returned from
Fergus Falls, where he was called on
legal business and where he also act
ed as witness in the case Of the
United States versus Ed. Collins tho
Island Lake bartender, who was &C.
cused of selling liquor to certain Rcd
Lake Indians some time last April.
At the hearing in May before Uni
ted States court commissioner H. A.
Simons, Collins was bound over to
the Federal Grand jury which met in
Fergus Falls this week. He was
tried in Judge Morris court on the
charge of selling liquor to the follow
ing persons, said to be of Indian
blood; John Summer, aged sixteen,
Clifford Sitting, age eighteen and
Ben Lawrence age twenty.
''The fact that the men were all
under age in addition to the fact that
they were of Indian blood and resi-
dents of the Red Lake Indian reser-
walton was convincing enough evil
dence to- convict any person." said
Mr. Simons this morning in speak
ing of the trial.
Collins was found guilty and was
sentenced to the Federal prison at
Fort Leavenworth for a period of one
year and one day and given a fine of
500. Testimony during the trial
brought out the belief that there
were not enough people in the viii
lage of Island Lake to profitably SUP
port saloon, without it derived an
income from some outside source.
The court impressed the fact upon
the defendant that all will be seri-
ously dealt with who sell liquor to
Indians wether they are of age or
not.
Some of the civil cases and also the
White Earth conspiracy cases were
continued over to the next term of
court. It is expected that all other
business will be cleaned up tonight
at which time the court will be adj
journed.

TUNGSTON LAMPS DROP
May Reduce Cost Of City Lighting
System in Residence
Section. \.
CITY NEEDS MORE GOOD LIGHTS

The fact that tungsten lamps have
taken a drop of forty per cent will
be of special interest to Bemidji, in
as much as it has at the present
time a large number of incandescent
lamps scattered about the city, which
in all probability will be replaced
by the tungsten.
Fifteen to 25 watt tungsten
lamps that formerly sold at so cents
now cost 80 cents at retail, 40 watt
lamps formerly IS cents now retail
at IS cents, 60 watt lamps, formerly
rs cents now As cents, 100 watt
lamps formerly s1.O0 now 65 cents,
$50 watt lamps formerly $3.50 now
$1.OO.
Residents formerly burning the in
candscent lamps can now afford to
purchase tungsten lights, which
throw out more light and burn less
juice. The use of this lamp is ad-
vocated by the Warfield Electric
Light company of this city and they
are anxious to cooperate with the
citizens along the lines of installing
lights which will mean a saving to
every individual in the cost of ele-
trio current.
1t has many times been suggested
that the small incandescent lamps
on the numerous street corners be
replaced and in the face of this drop
in the cost of the tungsten lamp, it
it presumed that the light company
will replace these"little red lanterns
with a bright shining tungsten.
Some business men have suggested
that these lights be also lowered so
that the street will be more .bene-
flied. In addition to giving a better
light, less current will be consumed,
which should ultimately reduce the
cost per light to the city.

school athletics, and prospects look
encouraging. Several candidates are
after each of the positions, which in
sures a hot fight for each Of them
Coach Carson, who led the football
warriors to victory, will also have
charge of the basketball five.

GET BADGERS GOAT

Minneapolis, Nov. 15.-Minnesota
got Wisconsin's goat today. Mime
sofa may do it again tomorrow, and
then again it may not, but there was
no question about tooay-s perform
ance. The Badge NANNY was TAX
en- into camp. Decorated with the
colors of the University of Wiscon-
sin, the goat, large black and white
one, had been tethered to a stake on
the campus of the University of Min
nesota and carefully shrouded with a
tent of canvas. Two thousand stu
dents, headed by the band, marched
to the spot today, and with fitting
ceremonies the goat was "unveiled'
and led away.
DR.. H. L. Williams welded the
sword that knows no brother on
Northrop field last evening. Secrecy
at football practice has been most
pronounced all season and this week
the lines have been more closely
drawn than ever before But the
last word in this respect was spoken
by the Gopher coach yesterday, when
he drove a dozen carpenters off the
field, refused admittance to several
former visitors and doubled the force
of student guards and cautioned
them to allow no one near the gates.

Undertaken in United
States.

theodore n. vail, president OF the
American Telephone and Telegraph
company has announced plan for
employees pensions, disability bene-
fits and insurance which will go into
effect the first of next January. This
plan is probably the most comprehen-
sive of it's kind ever undertaken in
the United States, not barring the
steel trust.
The people benefited are the en-
ployees of the American Telephone
and Telegraph company, and Asso-
ciated Bell companies, the Western
Union Telegraph company and the
Western Electric company. The Be-
midi employees of these companies
are particularly interested in the
plan. Following is the outline of
the plan as furnished the Pioneer by
Ray Lands, of the Minneapolis gen.
eral office:
THE PLAN.
A fund of s1O,OOO,OOO for pen
sions, sick benefits and life insur-
ance will be available on January
first, for the $4,000 employees of
the Bell system and associated inter-
ests, and their families and depend

preparations on the part of the Amer
lean Telephone and Telegraph COM
pany and Associated Bell companies,
the Western Union Telegraph COM
pany and the Western Electric COM
pany.
The plan for the distribution of
this fund has been characterized as
the most LIBERAL comprehensive and
ideal ever inaugurated President T.
N. Vail has provided combined bene-
hts for superannuation, sickness, &C
c1dent and death, for an industrial
army more than twice as large as
the standing army of the United.
States
inns provision is made entirely at
the expense of the various companies
interested, without contributions of
any kind from the employees them
selves. The application of these vari-
ed benefits will be strictly democrat
&c and will be for the benefit of all
employees of every rank. The plan
Will provide for free change of en-
ployment from one company to an
other, with full credit for combined
terms of service
More than 1000 employees of the
Northwestern Telephone Exchange
company, the Iowa Telephone COM
pany and the Nebraska Telephone
company, three Bell companies now
operating as working unit throug-
out Minnesota, the Dakotas, Iowa and
Nebraska will be affected by this
plan. The pension benefit is retro
active, affecting employees now work
ing for all Bell companies.
The Bell system and associated in
terests provide employment for about
$4,000 people,; of this number $780,
600 are employees of the Bell tele-
phone system. The total yearly pay
for the whole group is about $115,-
100000, something over $4,000, 900
being paid out in wages by the Bell
telephone system alone.

made for the needs of age, illness,
