his home at summit Point Octobe

in the sixtieth year of his age, and
was one of our oldest residents, hav-
ing come to this place when youn9
man of eighteen, and for twenty-five
years was agent of the B. & O. r.
R. In October, 1877, he was married
to Miss Virginia Hardesty, daughter

of this section. He is survived by his
widow, one daughter, Mrs. Sadie
Shewbridge, of this county, and thre.
sons, Glen, of Pittsburgh, Pa Waldo
and VIM. H., at home. All that low

morning for interment. To the be
reaved ones, we tender our heartfelt
sympathy.

formerly occupied by the Guarantee
Clothing Co., OF which Nathan Lem

had six months to run when taken
over by Kantrowitz on condition that
| he was not to use the name OF the
Guarantee Clothing Co. In any way.
For q time Krantrowitz lived up to
II, but about q month ago Kantrowitz
had 5000 circulars printed, half In
Italian and half In English, which he
distributed to advertise his business,
These circulars were delivered from
his other store at No. go Bowery and
q number were sent out from the
Harlem store. In the circulars Kan
trowitx said that certain standard
goods were being sold at prices far
below cost owing to their being sold
on the order of a receiver"
Detective Hawkins, Of the Thirty
sixth precinct investigated and found
that no receiver had ordered the sale
He made purchases at the Harlem

found that he could buy the collars
sold on this advertisement at six for
quarter. He bought several and
also bought shirt that was adver-
tised as standard" at q price far be-
low what such a shirt usually costs.
Hawkins asked the salesman, MOT
ris Kaufman, what guarantee ne
had that the goods were as repre-
scented. Kaufman told him that he
had the guarantee OF the Guarantees

to the signs In the window. all Of

It is doubtful if the members of
the Bemidji high school football

more capable person from their NUM-
Der for football manager than Edwin
simons, son Of Jurge II. a. Simons,,
and member Of the 1915
graduating class. Since his cleo
ton Of several days ago, Simons has
practically completed arrangements
for several games and the schedule
of the students this year will be
much more interesting than in sew

time this season on Friday afternoon

tered. Fred Graham, star half of

Will REBUILD DITCH SIX
Judicial Drain in Chilgren and Ripple
Townships to Be Completed Soon,
According to Stipulation.
MEANS RELIEF FOR SETTLERS

Through a stipulation which has
just been completedS between Graham
M. Torrance, county attorney. and
r. e. Mcdonald. attorney for the
Northwestern Drainage company,
work on the completion of Judicial
Ditch No. 6, will begin soon after
the first of October.
The contract price of the drain,
which runs north from Williams IN
the townships of ripple and Chilgren,
being ten miles in length, amounted
to $18,540, of which all but 5000
had been paid. Several months ago
1.-THE county commissioners ordered
that the balance, less $1,000 to be
used for completing and repairing
the ditch, be paid.
Such action brought forth objec-
tions from settlers in the county af-
fected by the drain and a petition to
the county attorney caused him to
appeal from the plan of the, commits
sioners. The case was to have come
up at this term of court It appears
that the ditch was poorly constructed
in places and that it was never prop
|erly completed.
According to the stipulation the
drainage company will start work on
October and is to have it. completed
on not later than November Is. All
work is to be done under the super
vision of Ernie, Bourgeois, and when
completed will be inspected by Ditch
Referee Dent before the balance of
the contract will be paid. It
also provides that should the drain
age company fail to start work on
the day named, that the county may
do so and at the expense of the COM
pany, and that if the ditch is not
completed by the middle of Novem-
Der, that the county may finish the
work. r :
Coming as it does, the stipulation
means much to the settlers of the
district in which the completion of
the ditch is valuable. If the matter
had entered the courts It is probable
that 1t would have remained unset;
tied for many months. during which
time the ditch would remain in its
present condition.
The ditch road will be repaired
and made passable.

HUFFMAN NAMED CAPTAIN
Former High School Star to Lead

BY practically unanimous choice
Italian L. Huffman was last evening
named captain of the Bemidji
Athletic club football eleven. The
naming of Huffman was not unex-
pected for his football experience is
equal to that of any man on the
squad. His playing in 1908, while
member of the championship high
school aggregation is remembered
by Bemidji football enthusiasts and
under his leadership the Athletics
should have a successful season.

CLUB TO MEET TOMORROW.
Incorporation of Athletic Association
to Be Discussed.

Lack of quorum at previous
meetings of the Athletic club has
made action in connection with the
incorporating of the organization
impossible, but at a meeting which
has been called for tomorrow even
ing, it is hoped the matter can be
settled. It is very discouraging to
the club officers to have poor attend
ances at these meetings, especially
when matters of such Importance as
incorporating are to be brought up.
1T is hoped that every member who
cannot attend the meeting tomorrow
night will be represented by proxy.
