TALENT MUSICALE.
Ashland Musicians Assist in Talent
Entertainment.

TUESDAY evening Z3 musical Meth
| odists enjoyed a trip to Talent
where they took part in an enter
tainment given for the benefit of the
new Methodist church of our sister
city. Some went by train. some by
auto and Others drove down, but they
all managed to arrive about supper
time. The good people down there
were prepared for them, however
and ushered the hungry Ashlanders
into side room of the church,
where was spread a bountiful repast
and to which the Granite City guests
did ample justice.
The entertainment was held in the
new school building, splendid
structure of which any city might be
proud. One feature might be i'm
proved, and that is the stage light
ing, which is effected by means of a
single strong light hung above the
center of the platform and which
casts grotesque shadows over the
performers face or leaves him alto
gether in the dark.
The star performer was Mr.. Meer-
kamp van Embden, a gifted pianist
from Amsterdam, Holland, who for
the past two months has been visit
ing his daughter, Mrs Oorthuys, who
lives one mile south of Talent. Miss
Meerkamp van Embden accompanies
her father and she and Mrs.
Oorthuys favored the audience with
vocal selections. MT. Meerkamp van
Embden and daughter start Friday
on their long homeward journey.
The latter resembles in appearance
her beloved Queen Wilhelmina.
With the exception of a song by
Mrs. Fuller, the rest of the program
was furnished by the Ashlanders, all
of whom responded to encores.
There were vocal solos by Mrs. Wolf,
Mrs. Poor and Miss Engle, duet
by DR.. Tilton and Mr.. Oien, and
two selections by the mems chorus.
Mrs. Palmerlee, Miss McWilliams
and Mr.. Yeo played the accompani-
ments. Mr.. Campbell gave a num-
ber of readings, each of which
brought down the house with
crash.
The last number on the program
was the playing of several national
airs by Mr.. Meerkamp van Embden.
The audience rose and sang Amer
lea" upon hearing the first notes of
our national anthem. A little later
the Holland ladies', not to be out
done, rose and sang their national
song, the audience rising also and
listening with much interest and re-
spect to this tribute to the far away
Vaterland.
The entertainment was well at
tended, every seat on the main floor
being filled and quite a crowd occu-
pying the gallery. Drs. Gregg and
Johnson came in autos and Mr. Pal
merlee drove down. The Ashland
delegation was composed of the fol-
lowing: Messrs. and Mesdames l.. C.
Poor, j. A. Lemery, S. C. Oien and
H. S. Palmerlee; Mrs. C. B. Wolf;
Misses Gertrude Engle, Frances Nc
Williams, Kathryn Miller and Maple
Payne; Messrs. c. F. Tilton, G. w.

dinary routine of business was the
presentation to Mrs. Lamkin by the
club of small token by way of re-
membrance and to show their appre-
citation of her labors among us. In
a happy presentation speech Mrs.
Chisholm broke the news to the La

Saturday for nomination as alder
man of the 81 Second ward, may not

question as to the number of names

five of the signers had alredy signed
had already signed other petitions so
that their signatures cannot be count

The law states that the petition
must have ten per cent of the. voters
at the last general election but as
the number of votes cast in the Sc

BELL TO MEET PETER
BY United Press.

by United Press.
St. Paul, Mimi, Feb. 1O.-From
present Indications one of the larg-
est crowds in the history of this city
will gather at the Auditorium tonight
when Fred Beell, light-heavyweight
wrestling champion and Theodore
Peter, challenger, meet in a finish
match.
The match has been three years
in the making, neither wrestler be-
ing anxious to meet the other. St.
Paul promoters only signed the two
up to an iron bound match contract
after putting up one of the largest
guarantees ever offered for a wrest-
ling bout in this city.
From the past records of the
two wrestlers, the bout will be fast
and furious from the start. The
poundage is equal, each weighing
near the 1873 pound mark.
One unique feature will be the
fact that for the first time each will
be in a championship bout with q
man of his own poundage.

Census Building Needed


Census Building Needed.
Since for many reasons the census
Office proper has not the advantages
that could be secured in more mod
ern and suitable quarters, there was
some hesitation about retaining it
during 1913, but after thoroughly
canvassing the situation it was de-
cided upon as the most advisable
course, especially as the lesser Offer
ed to expend several thousand dol
lars in much-needed changes, chief
ly designed to improve the sanitary
condition of the building. A more
modern building erected with a view
to present and future needs of the
permanent bureau, with better ia
cilities for lighting and sanitation,
and large amount of storage pace
for documents, records, equipment
and furniture carried over between
census periods, would greatly facili-
tate the work of the bureau and
would add to the comfort and we'll
being of it's employees. The need of
a fireproof building is particularly
great, in view of the vast quantity
of valuable records which must be
stored.

DEER RIVER COMING NEXT

The next High school basket ball
game will be played with Deer River
in this city. Just what kind of a
team Deer River has is not known
at present but the local boys are not
taking any chances and are preparing
for a fast game. Brainerd will be
brought here a week from Saturday.
Last year the Brainerd team defeated
Bemidji by one point which did not
seem to satisfy either team as the
difference in the score was not large
enough to prove which was the bet

Schedules Too Elaborate.

One of the chief causes of the i'm
perfection of the recent census of
agriculture has been the great elab-
Grafton of the schedules. The agri-
cultural schedule of 1910 was not
much more detailed than that Of
1900, yet it contained spaces for
more than 500 different items re-
garding each farm. Many of the in
quiries,. Of course, did. not apply to-
the majority of farms. but their
presence on the schedule neverthe-
less made 1t confusing and discour-
aging to the enumeration and to the
farmer. Among the inquiries were
many which the average farmer
could not be expected to answer
except by the toughest sort of esti-
mates. Either the public must get
along without so much agricultural
information, or part Of the inform
alton must be secured by other
methods than that of general enum-
Grafton.

Team Winner Of Game by
Score Of As 70 II. .....
LLOYD TANNER THE sTAl
rAR|LINcoLN PROGRAM R

Six fouls and three field baskets
were all that the Cass Lake High
school basketball team could get
from Bemidjl last Saturday night.
On the other hand, the local boys
connected for twenty-five baskets
and one foul making the final score
As to 12.. ~. I'LL. ~ ~ l.. 9. -. r..
A large portion of the crowd at
tending the game came from Cass
Lake and the visitors were highly
elated when their boys scored the
first three points Of the game on
fouls. Bemidji took a brace and
by a series Of brilliant playing shot
thirteen baskets and one foul be-
fore the first half ended. The
score the stood 20 to 4. 81
In the second half, Cass Lake, came
back strong at the start and secured
5,Gy rs5rt : q
two baskets in short order. One
more scored later in: the half and two
more fouls account for the visitors
final score of twelve. The Bemidji
team lost Earle Bailey, Lloyd Tan
ner and Delbert Elletson toward the
close of the second half, the men be-
ing replaced by Graham, Olson and
Klein. The second team boys ne
gotiated several baskets before the
final whistle. Delbert Elletson
shot the first field basket for Bemid-
il. 80 d.
! The two teams were fairly match
ed in height and weight but the
Bemidji boys proved much faster on
their feet and better drilled for taem
work. It was the lack of team work
by the substitutes that kept the Be
midji score from going higher.
Lloyd Tanner was the particular
star for Bemidji as he made thirteen
baskets, many Of them from diff
cult angles. His experience in the
game dates back to the "Big Be-
midg" team with which he practic-
ed when hardly larger than the ball.
The attendance at the game was
good and both teams were literally
cheered. The first half was marred
by shouts Of Rotten" at the referee
and visitors by Bemidji youth.
Following the game. about twenty
couples went to the Odd Fellows
hall where they danced until mid
