Mountain Iron Mans Narrow ESCAPE,

George Smith Of Mountain Iron
had most miraculous escape from
drowning in Rainy lake near Fort
Francis on Wednesday of last week.
That day Mr.. Smith started out in
a rig to drive across the lake to visit
his friend, Henry Dewitt, master me-
chanic for Cary & Johnson, who are
operating logging camps in that
vicinity. The trip was made in safe
ay, and shortly after o'clock, &C.
companied by his stepson, Eddie
Beach, he started back to town. Aft
er having gone some distance the son
got out and walked, shortly after
which the ice gave way and man and
team were houndering in the icy wa
ter. When leaving the rig the son
had taken the whip with him and this
was the means used in saving the
life of Mr.. Smith. The son reached
the whip to his father, who grasped
hold of it and was dragged to a
place Of safety on solid ice. The
team, however, were drowned.
After the accident Mr.. Smith and
son walked to the railroad track
where they were picked up by the
section crew and taken into Fort
Francis, where Mr.. Smith soon re-
covered from his icy cold bath.

County Farm For Prisoners,

At the meeting OF the Commercial
club Wednesday night the matter of
establishing county farm for pris-
oners was brought up by Assistant
County Attorney Edward L. Boyle.
1t is a question now being debated
by county officials as to whether it
would be best to build a new county
jail or establish county farm. Mr..
Boyle said that he was in favor of
the establishment of the latter, for
the reason that such an Innovation
would be of great benefit to the pris-
oners who are sent to the county Jail
at Duluth. AS it is now the prisoners
are allowed to anguish in that bas-
tile from thirty to sixty or ninety
days and sometimes even longer with
practically nothing to do. A farm,
which it is proposed to establish, the
prisoners can be kept busy, thereby,
in a measure, relieving their minds
of their present condition and servi-
tude. R. c. Pickering spoke in favor
of the farm and also said that the
police force OF the ranges made more
criminals than anything else. He
said that in great many cases men
were sent TO Jail without just reason.
Mr.. Pickering was of the opinion that
the common DRINKS ought to be
taken home instead of being jailed,
and If they did not have a home put
them somewhere where they could
be taken care of properly. The stig-
ma of being placed in a jail without
a good and sufficient reason has made
criminals out of many men. Then
again the good prisoners are locked
up in the county Jail with the bad
ones and this has a tendency to have
a bad influence upon the ones who
have only been sent there for Just
being drunk. Secretary Archer was
instructed to draft a resolution en-
bodying the sentiment of the club as
being in favor of the establishment
of such a farm.

terrain church were largely attended

sannah," by Mr.. Beach, was excep-
tionally rendered and we'll received.

thusiasm and skill. the "Magdaline"

pointed Day" in the evening. Prof.
Peterson's violin prelude and Offer
tory we're we'll received. All things
considered it was about the strongest
day in the history of the church.
Cordially and. worship are marked
features in the congregation. The
very efficient services Of Mr.. J. r.
Hande, skilled pipe organist, con-
tributes much to the strength of the
services. The Sunday school gave an
interesting program during the Sun
day school hour.

Profs. Theo. L. Reimesttad and
Kenneth A. Cranston, tenor soloists
from Minneapolis, will give a concert

Prof. With. Freudenberg, royal
professor of music and director of

church at Berlin, says:
Prof. Theo. Reimestad has stud
led singing with me, especially Ger
man arias and songs. At the close
of the course he appeared in recital
concert at the Emperor Wilhelm
Memorial church, before a musical
audience, singing the aria, 'Hoheit

May Change Street Names to Numbers.

At the suggestion of Mayor Mur-
ply President Boylan of the city
council has appointed committee to
look into the advisability of changing
the names of the streets and avenues
of the city to numbers. This COM
mittee, is composed of Mayor Murphy
and Alderman Heritage and Coffey
A great deal of confusion and incon-
venience has resulted from the
streets and avenues being named and
it is the intention of the council to
remedy the defect. AS an illustra-
ton of such confusion we will cite an
incident which occurred last Monday
morning. The fire department re-
ceived call to go to fire on Birch
street. The fremen who answered
the call understood the party to say
Beach street and the truck was sent
to the latter street. Beach is locat-
ed in the southern part of the city
while Birch is located near the Great
Northern depot in the north part of
the city. However, another truck
was ready and the department ex-
tinguished the fire before much dam
age was done. The delay in reach
Ing the fire might have caused more
serious damage The changing of the
names of the streets and avenues to
numbers would undoubtedly meet
with the approval of a big majority
of our citizens,

Brainerd Journal Press: "Profs.
Reimestad and Cranston pleased
large and appreciative audience by
their sweet and inspiring voices. The
big church was crowded to the doors,
but the voices of these two great
singers found their way into the re-
hottest corners of the church. The
audience remained charmed by the
sweet mellow tones until the strains
of music refused to answer with an
echo"
