.ROUSlNG MEETING URGED.
Athletic Club Board Of Control Calls.
Upon Members to Assist in In
cooperating Association.
LIFE OF CLUB DEPEND ON IT

In an effort to call attention Of
members of the Bemidji Athletic club
to the fact that unless more interest
is shown in the organization, and
that unless action is taken for the
Incorporating of the association, it

of control has issued call for a
meeting to be held tomorrow even
ing, as follows:
70 members Of the Bemidji Ath-
letic Club:
'The lease on the building being
used by the Athletic Club expires on
Wednesday, Sept. 20.
SIN order that the club may have a
suitable hall for basketball and
gym work the coming year, it will
be necessary to renew the lease for
another year.
cat a recent meeting of the board
of control it was decided that the
proposition of the board signing the
lease was putting too much respon-
sibility on the shoulders of the five
members who now comprise the
board
''In order, that this responsibility
be taken off that body and put on the
club as a whole, we recommend that
the club incorporate as a social cor
poration.
''Three calls have been issued for
special meetings, but so far we have
been unable to get majority of the
members out.
1--WE have decided to call another
meeting for Tuesday evening, Sept.
%, at $3.50 O'Clock, and would appre-
ciate it if we could have a full at
tendance. Now is the time to open
up and get good start for the Win
ter. So bring your dues and all the
new members you can get, and we
will have good, old rousing meet
ling.

COLONEL SPEAKS IN KANSAS
country's Ailments Diagnosed by Mr..
Roosevelt.

Wichita, Kan, Sept. 21.-Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt, addressing a
statewide meeting of Progressives
here, elucidated his position on i'm
portant subjects of legislation. He
discussed the relations of capital and
labor at some length, pointing to the
Colorado labor troubles as illustrating
the failure Of national and state gov
ernments to enact and enforce effec-
tive laws, and pointed to the New
Haven railroad scandal as an example
Of capital gone wrong in the absence
Of proper governmental control.
Business, he asserted, is entitled to
its profits, and we must learn to &C
cept the principle of combinations of
capital as of the highest economic val
ue. But this acceptance, he insisted,
must carry with it fair share of the
profit to the employee.

Paris, Sept 21.-The official com.
munications issued thus far have
neglected the question of losses,
which in a fight such as the battle of
the Aisne, covering front of 100
miles, are almost impossible to esti-
mate even approximately.
Some unofficial reports have placed
the allies losses at $4,000 and those
of the Germans at 100000 in the Sc
ries of engagements comprised in the
figures are to the truth no one will
know until the official figures are
compiled. However, the impression
derived from individual accounts Of
wounded soldiers and from prisoners.

these estimates are conservative.
The losses certainly are the great

Many Mentioned for Bravery.
Lieutenant Naquet of the Two Hun
dred and Fifty-eighth infantry of re-
servists is among those mentioned
for bravery. Although wounded he
continued the energetic direction of
his company, of which all the officers
in his section had been killed or
wounded.
Adjutant Dele of the Sixty-ninth In
fantry led his section on under the
most violent fire until all his men
were wounded. Then he grabbed q
gun from one of his soldiers and while
the section retired continued firing
until he was killed by fragment of

For the great proportion of French
officers killed or wounded two expla-
nations are given-the zeal of the Of
ficers and the orders given to the Ger
man riflemen to pick them out.
Besides those already named the
latest order mentions General Mangin,
who achieved fame in the Moroccan
campaign, and General Battille, who
was killed on Sept 8 after showing
the uttermost bravery and sang froid.
