PLAY ANNUAL STUNT.
Grand Rapids Refuses to Meet
Athletics on Gridiron.

Annually Bemidji is challenged to
meet the Grand Rapids city team on
the gridiron, annually Bemidji ac-
cepts and annually Grand Rapids at
tempts to cancel the game. This
year is no exception and Joe O'Day,
manager of the Itasca county eleven,
has caNed OF the contest scheduled
for next Sunday. The Rapids has
always been Bemidji's bitterest ath-
letic foe and games between the two
have always been hard fought and
decisive in the placing of northern
Minnesota championships. Bemid1i
had worked hard at practice in order
that the splendid victory of last year
might be repeated, but the Grand
Rapids players evidently saw another
humiliating defeat before them and in
their customary manner waited un-
til the eleventh hour to cancel. Last
year a game was arranged after
much trouble, but this season it ap-
pears no game can possibly be ar
ranged.

NEsTY IN WEAK CONDITION
Man Believed to be Connected With
Assault Upon Little Crookston
Child Must Answer Charges
HI FROM, SUICIDE ATTEMPT

- - s - 49,
Although too weak from loss of
blood following his attempe to COM
nit suicide, Andrew Nesty, the man
brought here frmo Cass Lake early
in the weak, to be taken to Crookston
where he will be requested to answer
as to charge of criminal assault up
on child of two years and a half,
he will be taken there soon.
Sheriff Kelley was in Bemidji
yesterday and Investigated the al
legged confession of Nesty, intending
to return with the accused man. He
found Nesty's condition such that
he decided it would be unwise to
take him from the hospital.
There is much feeling against
Nesty in Crookston and a large num-
Der of persons met the train on which
Sheriff Kelly returned, expecting to
catch a glimpse of the alleged often
der. In
It is thought that Nesty made his
confession of the Crookston assault
while believing that his attempt to
suicide would prove successful.
At the hospital it is claimed Nesty
will recover from his lung, wrist and
neck cuts. Should he be found guilty
of the charge against him it will
mean life Imprisonment

BOSTON wins FIRST

Weather conditions did not make
it necessary to postpone the opening
game of the worlds series, as had
been predicted, and when the Braves
and Athletics took the field, the large
baseball park was crowded to more
than its seating capacity. Rudolph,
one of the seasons pitching sensa-
lions, was the selection Of Stallings,
while the Brainerd Indian, Bender,
was relied upon for a victory by Con-
ME Mack. Gowdy and Schang were
the opposing catchers. Neither side
scored in the first, but in the second
Boston twice was able to cross the
pan. The Athletics tried hard to tie
the score in their half, but one tally
was the best they could accomplish.
No scores were made in the third or
fourth, but the fifth Boston added
one, three in the sixth and one in the
eighth.

tural Exhibit, q He said-Dem-
strates Achievements.

One OF the greatest acnleVementS
in the exploitation of Minnesota's
natural resources in the Gopher
states history was achieved during
the week of the Illinois State fair, as
the result of the co-operationeof Fred
ID. Sherman, state immigration COM
missioner and the immigration de-
partment of the Great Northern rail-
way company The missionary work
was concentrated on the renters of
Illinois farms and many Of them
were brought to a realization that
they can establish farms of their
own on cheaper Minnesota land
which will produce just as much as
the high priced land of Illinois for
which they are paying fancy rentals.
The Minnesota state exhibit was in
stalled in the main exposition build
ing OF the Illinois State fair grounds,
while. the Great Northern railway
reached the horde of fair visitors
through an exhibit in a circus tent
on the main grounds. Fred D. Sher-
man, Minnesota's state immigration
commissioner, and w. C. King, the
states exhibit expert, were in charge
Of the Minnesota exhibit, while E.
G. Leedy, immigration agent for the
Great Northern railroad company,
was in charge of the novel exhibit
which L. w. Hill placed under the
great stretch of canvas. Both these
exhibits were the center of attrac-
ton, especially to the Iiilinois farm
teuadts, the great majority OF whom
were seeking to establish themselves
on farms of their own. Mr.. Sher-
man declares that Minnesota will get
''the CALI when the prospective home
seekers pack up their movables and
strike out for themselves.
T. 81 Funk q Visitor.
Among prominent visitors at the
Minnesota booth was President Funk
of the National Corn show, who re-
sides at Bloomington, Illinois. Mr..
Funk complimented Commissioner
Sherman very highly upon the Min
nesota exhibit and said:
A Corn State.
This is truly remarkable agri-
cultural exhibit and I believe that
it will be very Illuminating to the
Illinois people, many of whom believe
that corn can not be grown in Mime
sofa successfully. I notice that you
have here on exhibition great many
varieties Of some of the finest corn
that have ever SEEN Your yellow
and white dent corn compares very
favorably with the best varities of
corn grown in Illinois The fact
that Minnesota led every state in the
union in the point of yield per acre
in the year 1913 proves to me con-
clusively that Minnesota is a corn
