Locals Playing Second Clash
With Crookston at Queen
City This Evening
ST. THOMAS CANCELS TWO
GAMES WITH LOCALS HERE
Fosston Defeats Mcintosh and
Mcintosh Trims Crookston;
Good Game is Certain

TIE Bemidji Firemen's basketball
team has a busy week. Returning
from the various places where they
spent Christmas Day, the players
left early this forenoon for Crooks
ton to play the second game of the
Firemen- Crookston schedule tonight
at the Crookston armory. .r.+ ~
Crookston has strengthened con-
siderably for tonight's game and an
exceptionally close and hard-fought
contest is on tap, the Crookston
Gunners being doubly anxious to
win ON their own floor to help even
up the defeat given Crookston here
last Wednesday night when the Fire
men took the Queen City quint into
camp by a score of - to IL.
Two games were scneduled with
the St. Thomas -All-Stars for Thurs
day and Friday nights of this week
but last night the All-Stars cancelled
their trip here and consequently Man
ager Lycan of the Firemen immed-
lately got busy to arrange games to
take their place. .~s -. 49, 4. :.
Fosston has been secured to play
here Thursday right and on Friday
night the Firemen will play at Cass
Lake. = '.-..-@ -
Fosston last night defeated Nc
Intosh by score of rs to 10 while
Mcintosh trimmed .Crookston at Nc
Intosh last Thursday evening by ID
10 IL count. This would indicate
that Fosston must have whale of a
team and will probably give the Fire
men just as good o. possibly better
game that would the st. Thomas All
Stars bunch. RI
The admission price for this game
has been set at SO cents, plus war
tax. Considering the record that
Fosston has already made this seas
on, this contest should prove to be
very interesting. Az
The game here Thursday night is
scheduled to begin. at eight o'clock
sharp and there is every indication
that the size of the crowd will rival
that at the Crookston game last We'd

Therefore when the physicians had

and the look she gave him in return

IS OFFERED IN
 CONTEST

Alaska high schools have again been asked to participate in the Good Roads National Essay Contest, prepared by the Highway and High way Transport Education Committee of Washington, the prize of which is a four years university course given by Harvey s. Firestone, of Ak ron, Ohio. Alaskan schools took part in last years contest, Miss Floris M. Clark, class of 1921, Skagway High School, being winner of the Territory contest.
 Rules governing the contest have been mailed to all Alaskan high schools by Lester D. Henderson, Ter ritorial Commissioner of Education. The contest is open to all high school students. Principals of the schools will select the three best es- says submitted to them and forward them to Commissioner Hendersons office, mailing them not later than May 15.
 IS THIRD CONTEST
 This is the third consecutive of such a contest which has been held. It is offered as means of encour- aging high school students to study highway economies. The subject se lected for this years contest is: "How Good Roads are Developing My Country" Commenting on the subject, MT. Henderson said: "The subject of the essay for 1922 is per haps not so interesting as last years, in view of the fact that there is a dearth of good roads in the average Alaska community. However, it is hoped that a number of contestants will enter from each Alaska high school Inadequate means of trans portation is one of Alaska's great est drawbacks. It is very desirable, therefore, that the students now en- rolled in our high schools, who will be directing Alaska's affairs in the future, study this subject"
 PREVIOUS WINNERS NAMED
 The contest last year was won by Miss Garland Johnson, pupil in the Bridgeport, West Virginia, high school. Miss Johnson, upon her graduation, will attend one of the leading women's colleges, all tuition and reasonable expenses being de- frayed by the donor of the scholar ship. The first scholarship offered was awarded to Miss Katherine F. Butterfield, Weiser, Idaho, who is now in her second year in college un- der the terms of the scholarship which is valued at not less than $4,OOO.

 For the last twenty years the Tiger has followed daily course in Swed- ish drill. Every morning, Edouard Lorey, Clemenceau's instructor, calls at the Rue Franklin and for two hours or more puts the former premier through a series of back-bending, leg raising, m-extending exercises. At other times the Tiger butts hard and strong on Sandow belts or reaches down to touch his toes without bend ing his legs.
 At first he would simply remove his coat and keep his collar and tie on. Now, however, he strips to the waist. M. Lorey is full of praise for his pupil"

FAMOUS SHRINE BURNS
 AT CAPITAL OF QUEBEC
Father McMilIan Receives Word of Destruction of Famous Place
 of Miracle Healing.

The world-famous Shrine of St. Anne de Beaupre, at Quebec, Que, was destroyed by fire last night in a conflagration that caused a total property loss of 100000 before the flames were under control.
 News of the burning of the eel ebrated shrine was received here today by the Rev. Father William McMillan of St. Joseph's Catholic Church. Commenting on the shrine, Father McMillan said:
 "In the region which now forms the parish of Sainte Anne de Beau pre-, the first houses date from the year 1850. On March 13, 1858, Fath- CT Vignal, missionary, chose the site on Beaupre Hillside, and start ed the foundations of the proposed chapel, to be dedicated to St, Anne. The old church was begun in 1876, It was used for worishp until 1876, when it was replaced by the present one, opened in October of that year. The last was built of cut stone. It is 200 feet long and 100 feet wide, including the side chapels. Leo XIII raised it to the rank of a minor basilica the 5th of May, 1887. It has been served by the Redemp- torist Fathers since 1878.
 "On either side of the main door way are huge pyramids of crutches, walking-sticks and other appliances, left by cripples, the lame and the sick, who came to the shrine and returned healed.
 "Only in the last quarter of the 18th century did the shrine attain to the growth, organization and fame which now render it comparable to the great pilgrimage to Lourdes. To give some idea of the growth of the pilgrimages during the last few years: In 1880 total of 36,OOO pill grims visited the shrine; in 1890, 105,000; in 1900, 135,O0O; in 1905, 168,000.
 There is also larger Pensionat and Asylum, in charge of the Fran ciscan missionary Sisters"

PIRATE TALES 0UTD0
 STEVENSON

SHANGHAI, China, March 31. - Robert Louis Stevenson's tales of pirates bold are rivalled by the dar- ing escapades and adventures of the Chinese river and coast pirates.
 One of the most audacious deeds of the Chinese pirates which has ever occurred in Chinese waters took place recently when an armed pirate gang boarded the China Mer- chant Navigation Company's steam CT Kwanglee, off the coast of Annoy, held up the European captain, the ships officers and passengers and escaped with $15O,000 in valuables and money.
 Captain Lindsay Crawford was sitting in his cabin when pirates rushed in, held him up with revol- vers, bound him. He was tied, gagged and locked in a little room along with other foreign officers for more than thirty hours.
 HOW ROBBERS WORKED
 The robbers proceeded to the treasury room of the vessel, broke it open and removed silver bars val ued at $30,000. The bars, together with $120,OOO taken from the terri flied passengers, were lowered over the side of the steamer to their fel- low pirates, who were waiting in Chinese junks. Rich silks and furs, amounting to $30,000, being taken from Shanghai to Canton as cargo, also were taken by the pirates.
 Before leaving, the pirate captain with a swagger equal to the bravado of Treasure Island" hero wished the captain of the Kwanglee "good by and safe journey" Incidentally, they put the engines of the ship out of order. While plundering the ves- sel the pirates shot number of Chi nese passengers, threw two Chinese overheard, but did not molest the foreign" passengers, Mrs Wu Ting Fang, wife of Dr. Wu Ting Fang, former Chinese Minister to the United States and a leader in the ac- tivities of the Canton Government a passenger, was uninjured.
 While this affair is unquestionably one of the most daring and success ful robberies oto occur off the China coast, the pirates operating along the South China coast and the rivers carry on well-organized robberies al- most daily.
The Cordova daily times., 1922-03-31
WHAT BANDITS ENJOY

The pirates number into the thousands, and they are particularly fond of boarding the junks on the rivers and carrying off a cargo of rice, wood or sundries.
 They are organized into bands and follow the directions of their leaders. Tne islands off Ningo are infested with the robbers, and so well &C., quainted are they with the country that it is almost impossible for the river and coast police to capture them. When they are captured, the pirates are shot immediately.
 The pirates are very superstitious every port city or town has 'Tem- pie to the Goddess of Heaven,'' where the pirates, as well as the boatmen, worship the young goddess who is said to have the power to save their boats from harm during a storm. When out at sea in z storm the pirates fall on their faces and implore the Goddess of the Heavens to save them. If they see a strange red light in the heavens they rejoice and feel that their applications have been answered. Pirates on shore burn incense on the "Temples to the Goddess of the Heavens during a typhoon for their brother pirates on the rivers or ocean.

Mayor Steen Makes
Sizzling Statement to
Committee

Illness of Chief of Police Fennell
Yesterday afternoon necessitated the
postponement of Investigations Of the
police committee of council into po-
lice matters, generally although tes-
timonv was taken in the charges pre-
ferred by Mayor Steen against police
man Terrell, who was suspended fol-
lowing the accidental shooting Of
"Maude" Lee on the night of July 70.
Mayor Steen made a statement to
the committee of his reasons for sus-
pending Officer Terrell, alleging that
he had been careless in the handling
of firearms and under the influence
of liquor" The mayor explained that
he did not charge Officer Terrell with
being drunk, but qualified his charge,
the officer having admitted that he
had drunk three glasses of sweet
wine.
After hearing the evidence in the
case the committee took it under ad-
visement. Mayor Steen also related
an incident where Officer TaveIl had
gone into a local hotel to stop dis
turbance, and found a man and Wo-
man, who, it was alleged, were act
ing boisterously. They were not man
and wife. The proprietor Of the no.
tel asked that they be arrested, anc
they were, Officer Tavelltaking sic
cash bond. Going off duty Officer
Tavell transferred the bond to Officer
Barber. who relieved him, but before
doing so he was requested by friend!
of the man arrested, not to make
case and to return the bond. This
Officer Tavell refused to do. The,
said they would see the chief.
Some time later, it was stated, tn
chief instructed Officer Barber to re
turn the cash bond and not to make
case against the accused parties
Mayor Steen was very emphatic
denouncing such practice, and said h
hoped the committee would make
complete investigation.
