University Week.

From June 9 to IA Bemidji will
have the state university in it's midst.
Many are anxiously awaiting it's COM
ing. 1t will be treat and an educa-
tional course, the benefit of which
cannot be overestimated. Bemidji
has reached that stage where educa-
tional features of this nature appeal.
1t could not get along without it.
True, every city has it's Indifferent
classes and this city is no exception.
If there are some who care nothing
for this splendid instructive enter
tainment, the least they can do is to
keep their hammers in the tool chest
They surely cannot be blind to the
advertising derived from such a
course and should therefor not only
help to make it a bowling success,
but help to make Bemidji the banner
town on the circuit. 1t can be done,
because Bemidji has the "stuff, with
which to do it. Every business and
professional man should at least buy
two season tickets. They are now on
sale at every drug store and bank in
the city as well as the Sentinel and

erd boy, hoisted his name high in the
baseball world yesterday, when pitch
ing for the Philadelphia team, he de-
feated the New York Giants on their
own grounds in the third game of the
World series. The young fellow was
opposed to Tesrau, and must have held
his head all the way as the best the
Giants could do was to garner in two
runs, the Philadelphians putting eight
men across the plate.
Although, from Brainerd, the Little
Falls fans are much pleased at his
success, and sent him the following
telegram: Congratulations to Bush,
the busher.''
The first game of the series played in
New York Tuesday went to Philadel-
rhia by score Of 8 to 6, Bender pitch
ing for the Phillies and Marquard for
New York. The second game went to

Plank pitching for the Phillies and
Mqthewson for New York. No scores
were made until the tenth inning in
this game when New York pushed three
scores across the plate.

seven games played to win the cham
pionship. ..~

.SLUccED AND ROBBED, DIE
ED FELANDER, THE VICTIM, DID
NOT RECOGNIZE ASSAILANTS ="
NO CLUE .t@55,.

Ed. FelanGer Of this city was Knocked
Gown and robbed on the old east side
tracks near the location of the old ball
park Monday night by unknown
parties and may not recover from his
iiiuries.
He was relieved Of $35 and his watch,
valued at about 500, by the three men,
apparently strangers in the city.
Mr.. Felander, who has been in the
employ of R. L. Cochrane for about a
year, had received his pay for the
Ironth and went down town to cash hi
check. Late in the evening as he was
returning home, he was struck on the
tor: of the head with some sharp in
strument, robbed and left on the
tracks.
In stupefed condition he managed
10 get to his home. which lies east OF
the tracks, where he lives alone. He
remained in an unconscious condition
until Tuesday morning, when his cm-
liver sent a man to fiuG out WHY he
did not come to work. A physician
vas summoned and w:rnd aDoEt two
az one-half inches long ana very
deep. was found on the top of his
head. He is thought to have sustain.
cd internal injuries and his recovery. is
doubtful. He was taken to the home
of l.. H. Nudge where he is being cared
for.
Nc clue to the perpetrators Of the
chime has been found as Mr.. Fe.ander
could not describe their appearance. II
is thought, however; .nat they were
hobos who had noticed that he had a
s,1n of money and followed him to the
tracks where they attacked him.
