SUSPECT ARRESTED FOR
FRANK KELLY MURDER
w. j. McDonough Identified
When He Parked Kelly's
Car in Minneapolis

Blue Earth Mimi, Dec. 27.--:W.
j. McDonougt was arrested here at
4 a: m. today by Sheriff Hugh S. FROST
of Onoka county in connection with
the murder of Frank Kelly, former
Mankato legislator, .~.,....
:. McDonough was identified when he
parked Kelly's car in Minneapolis af-
ter the m.rder, which occurred near
Dayton last Thursday.
y Kelly left Mankato week ago with
stranger and said he was going to
Elk River. His charred body was
found in the ruins of school house
near Dayton. Residents heard two
shots and then the school house burst
into flames. They saw a man and wo-
man drive rapidly away. The body was
identified as that Of Kelly by a cruci-
fix found in the ashes of the burned
building. .*tJ.,
Police believe that Kelly was muir
dered for his automobile and $500
in cash which he was carrying on his
person. Kelly was an automobile sales
man i'm Mankato and served in the
state legislature in 1909 and 1911.
McDonough was the first to be ar
rested in the case. He was taken to
Mankato and the party left there at
$3.50 for Minneapolis. ~.

STEAMSHIP LINES SAY
THEY ARE COOPERATING
(By United PreSs)

London, Dec. 27.-Rcfuting the
suggestion that the north Atlantic
steamship companies had circulated
propaganda against the American
laws restricting immigration, state
ment has just been issued on behalf
of these companies to show that they
had on the contrary evolved a sys-
TEN to. cooperate with the American
authorities.
The steamship lines have establish
ed tS1reaus in all the principal Euro
pean emigration centcrs. Here the
flow of passengers is watched and
the number kept within the prescribed
quota.
"Exempted' class es Of passengers,
it is pointed out, cause much trouble
because the final decision rests with
America. To compile tely regulate the
flow, also, is impossible, the statement
says, because the quotas are on the
same basis, not of departures from
Europe; but Of arrivals in America.
1t is not to the advantage Of the
steamship companies to get undesir.
able aliens into the country, the state
ment points out, because when such
aliens are detected the company must
bear the return expenses.

PARK RAPIDS BANK HIT
BY FIRE CHRISTMAS DAY

= Park Rapids, Dec. 81, Especial to
The Pioneer) Fire was discovered
Christmas morning in the First Ma
tional bank and was not extinguished
until noon. 1T caught somewhere near
the furnace in a manner unknown
and was probably snouldering all
night. When the firemen arrived the
walls Of the first story were so hot
that one could not bear the hand on
them and the second story rooms were
so full of. smoke they could not be
entered. The fire had worked along
the joists below the first floor and
was SO far back that it could not be
reached with the hose and so contin-
ued to burn until the first floor was
practically destroyed. Creosote, steam
and smoke ruined every piece Of fur
niture, and all the finish in the whole
building. The furnace was not de-
stroyed and in less than half an hour
after the fire was out they had a fire
in the furnace and forestalled further
damage.
The lossis fully covered by insur-
ance and a crew Of men went to work
Monday morning to make it tenabIe,
and the bank expects to do business
as usual. -..--, .,, T.
It was a beautiful building both
outside and inside, but the founda-
ton construction was badly at fault.

NEW MO0RINC MAST TO
MAKE FLYING EASIER
f3y United prass)

Washington, Dec. 27.---Perfection
of the new American type of moorine
mast for non-rigid airships will put
the business Of flying on practical
basis in this country, in the opinion
of army air experts.
The course Of few months will
bring safe and rapid transportation by
a network of air routes threading
their way across the country in all
directions, it is predicted, with the
setting UP of mooring masts as basic
points.
The mooring mast which has been
developed by the United States air
service following it's success in Eng
land, is to the airship what the gar
age is to the automobile. Not only
does it provide an anchorage, but it
also maintains pipe system by which
hydrogen, air, fuel and water are sup
piled to the airship on its overnight
stay. Thus the airYhip is ready with
the morning to depart for it's next
station.
The American type of mast, which
has H,en successfully experimental
with at Langley Field, Va. consists of
a structural steel tower held in vcr-
tical position by steel gables. It stands
72 feet in the air and can properly
handle any size Of airship. After
few slight alterations it will be pro-
nounced'perfect and will be ready for
It's valuable service throughout the
country.

Following the high school-alumn

Monday evening, "a short business
meeting was held by tie graduates
of the Bemidji high school, with San,
.Gainey as temporary chairman, and
an alumni association was started.
Although the meeting was very
brief, officers were elected FOR the
ensuing year. H. =. Huffman was
elected president. Tommy Si,nons was
the only other graduate nominated
for that office. Ed Simons was elected
,vice-president, Miss Josephine Parker
secretary, and Fred Graham treas
urer., nj fzg.. ,, ill =
Just what the plans OF, the asso-
citation are, it has not yet been an
nounced. However, the value of such
an organization has long been con-
sidered BY number of recent grad
yates, who took it upon themselves
to make arrangements for the bas-
ketball game, the organization meet
ing, and the dance which followed.
The first, venture of the alumni as
an association was the dance which
followed the basketball game. A four
piece orchestra furnished the music
and large number of graduates and
students enjoyed a social evening.
