PETITION FOR ICE RINK
IS NOW BEING CIRCULATED

Several Bemidji young men have
started a movement to obtain a pub
lie ice rink and are passing around
petition to find out how many Be-
midi people are interested. They
will probably appear before the coun-
Gil with the list. More interest is
shown than was expected, especially
by the business men, who believe Be-
midi should have a skating rink
which would be free to everybody.
They believe that such an attrac-
ton will keep the younger boys away
from the pool rooms where lately the
boys who are not many months over
sixteen years of age have been con-
gregating. They believe action
should be taken to furnish the boys
with a more attractive amusement
than that offered by the pool rooms
and bowling alleys.

Guessed Within Seventeen of the
Number Of People Who Entered
Bankers Store.
A MALCOLM GIRL TOOK SECOND

James L. George, county auditor,
won the guessing contest conducted
by E. A. Barker from Dec. 5 to 21 and
was awarded prize of SIS in mer-
chandise. Mr.. George guessed that
1892 people would enter Bankers
store during the sixteen day period
and the tally count kept showed
1895 which made Mr.. Georges count
seventeen high.
The count was kept by P. A. Nell
son who used a hand checker and
so did nothing else for sixteen days
than count the people who came
through the front door of the store.
Each person who made a purchase of
81 or over was entitled to a guess
and Mr.. Barker said this morning
that $500 guesses had been regis
tered.
Miss Ida Saterlie, of Malcolm, won
second prize of SO in merchandise
as she guessed 7,s45 which was
twenty high. Adolph Billedeaux
won the third prize of IS with a
guess of 7,848 which was twenty
three high. The following persons
each won a prize of 50 as their
guesses were from 80 to So out of the
way: Mrs. Ed. Currey, Ed Millet,
w. z. Robinson, Adolph Billedeaux,
Gladys Hazen, r. A. Hannah, Frank

GETS TWO LICENCES.
Young Minneapolis Man Thought the
Second Married Him and Took
His Wife" Home. r.
HAS REFUND OF $2:25 COMING
(Copyright.l

Minneapolis, Dec. 23.-Surprised
to learn from Marriage License Clerk
William Hughes that although he
possessed two valid marriage licenses
to wed Miss Sigrud Anderson, twen-
ty-two years old, for which he had
paid the sum of $3.50, he was never
theless a single man, Edwald T. Mil
Ter, twenty-five years old, declared
Saturday night that he will have his
matrimonial entanglements straight
ened before Christmas at any cost. He
planned to lead his bride to a minis
ter of the gospel Sunday and have the
comedy of Errors revamped into
ALPS Well That Ends Well"
Miller took out the first license
Thursday from Clerk William
Hughes. Miss Anderson, on being
shown the license suggested, it being
leap year they go to the courthouse
and be married. Together they visit
ed the office of the clerk of the dis
trict court again Friday, expecting to
have the ceremony performed there.
1--WE want to be married." said Millo~
to Deputy Clerk Clarence J. Williams.
Williams, not knowing of the previ-
Gus paper, issued them another IL
cense, and the couple, supposing that
Williams had married them, left the
Office. Miller rented apartments at
1901 Third avenue and there he in
troduced Mrs Miller.''
In obtaining the first license Miller
gave his address, as 271O Tenth street
s, and the second time he gave the
location of his new home On Third
avenue S. This caused some delay
when Clerk Hughes noticed the two
licenses to the same persons, but
Hughes found Miller last night and
Informed him that one marriage Ii
cense was enough.
"That's what they tell me- said
Miller, "but I am not married yet
understand we have to see a minister
We will get married tomorrow
Miller will have refund of 1925
in the nature of Christmas present
to himself, if he calls at the clerk of
courts Office before then. Clerk of
Court Peter S. Nelson said both Ii
censes are valid, but one can be can
celled unless Miller insists upon re-
tanning both. The young couple
were Christmas shopping last night.

St. Paul, Dec. 23-Henry Kohn,
Waterman, was instantly killed in
an explosion which wrecked the
plant of the Prest-O-Lite company in
the Midway at 5:35 o'clock Sunday
morning. Holm was caught in the
boiler room and the body was not re-
covered until $50 after much of the
water thrown on the fire had been
pumped out Of the basement. 1t was
charred almost beyond recognition.
: A. F. Oresky, manager Of the COM
pany, said that he believed the ex-
plosion came from the boiler in the
basement as the gas the company
made would not explode. The shock
broke windows for a radius of one
mile and was felt five miles away in
St. Paul and Minneapolis. The ruins
took fire Immediately after the ex-
plosion and the gas from 400 tanks
made a fierce blaze as they took fire
when the tanks melted or burst
Windows in the Twin City State
bank were broken and the bank was
protected by the police as it was
feared the vault doors might have
been sprung. A conductor said that
his car has been raised from it's
trucks at Front and Rice Streets, St.
Paul, by the force of the explosion.
The St. Paul police received calls
at all stations from people awakened
by the shock and in each case the
person ealing thought that the ex-
plOsiOn was near his home.
Pres-O-Lite is used for the lighting
of automobile. The loss is given as
$4,000.

ORGANIZE BASKET BALL TEAM

Several young men of Bemidji
have organized city basket ball
team and have begun practice in the
gymnasium at the High school. Some
good material has been obtained and
some fast games are anticipated.
Practice is held on Monday, Tuesday
and Thursday. A game will be play
ed in the armory one week from Sat-
urady. Some of the present candi-
dates are Glen Peck, Barney Erick-
son, Jacobson, Brandon, Al. Neuman,
Ripple and Barrigan.

which does not seem fitted for any
apparent purpose, unless it might be
to facilitate the handling of mud in
the plastering of the lodges or DAMS
The powerful hind feet, with the
development of web extending to the
extreme points, afford the ideal model
for aquatic life. The large heel-pad
and strong nails enable the animal
when on land to stand upright firmly,
a position generally assumed when at
work. On the second toe there is a
which apparently is only used for
combing the fur.
The gait of the beaver is waddling
and slow, owing to the shortness of
its limbs and to the outward direction
which is given to its heels to enable
it's feet more efficiently to fulfill the
function of paddles in swimming. The
toes alone of the anterior feet and
the surface of the sole in the poster
ior are applied to the ground in walk
ing.
The awkwardness of it's appearance
in this action is, moreover, heighten-
ed by the clumsiness of it's figure and
by the difficulty which it seems to
experience in dragging after it it's
cumbrous tail, generally trailing up
on the ground, though sometimes is
slightly curved upward, and is occas-
ionally moved in a direction from
side to side. In the water, however,
this member becomes highly useful,
useful, both as paddle and rudder,
to urge it onward and to direct it in
it's course. A mature beaver weighs
from forty to sixty pounds and it's life
is from fifteen to twenty years.
The animal prefers the northern
side of the stream for the advantage
of the sun, and, when possible, takes
the bank of an island rather than.
that of the mainland, as it affords
greater security from attacks. In
this selection, however, it's instinct
frequently misleads it, as it has been
known to build in situations where
it has been unable to procure food,
and where it has, consequently, per-
ished from starvation.
