.APACHES RAID MEXICO;
CRIME WAVES GROWING
Wave of Crime and Robbery

Spreading Over Mexico

Mexico. City, Mexico Sept. 49,
Omitted Press)-A crime. wave is
sweeping Mexico City. .j@o!.s ~
r. More sensational to Mexico City
than anything since the day of the
famous "gray automobile, !" which be-
came the dread Of the capital, is the
wave of crime and robbery spread
over the city by the "Apaches" who
have come in numbers. These deni-
zens of the dives of the Montmartre
are by their :"cocottes," their paint
ed partners Of the underworld who
bring the prey into their hands,
Daring and vicious and with un-
canny cunning and luck, the "'Apa-
Eches'' have outwitted the police and
have continued their nightly depre-
sdations, taking the city by storm.
The women, artists of artists in
feminine wiles and makeup, ply the
thoroughfares and frequent the
night cafes. The Mexican youth Of
means delights in. "a "good time" and
the dazzling French girls enveigle
these quick companions to elegant
apartments, where after a period of
drinking, the "Apaches" appear and
fall on their prey: Americans, too,
have been led to these apartments
only to become the prey of the
EHApaches" 49,
+ The "Apaches" also make nightly
patrols of the streets in automobiles
and have frequent pistol battles with
the police. @'iI'i =
81 The "Apaches" have become the
talk of the city and Of the ~ news
papers. Following up as closely as
possible their nightly 1iiaurading, one
paper carries a daily story of their
work which carries a multitude of
crimes. p
F. Following the example OF the
"tApaches" scores of young Mexican
boys have started a campaign OF
robbery. =
3 These nocturnal providers, with the
blood of the Indian, armed; with
knife and pistol without the finesse
of the APACHE" have killed and
wounded more than the, notorious
French crooks. They work singly or
in pairs and recently they have

At the Argonaut Gold Mine, jack
son, Calf, Sept 19--Jackson mourn
ed its dead today. The lite city af-
three weeks Of tragic suspense,
plunged deeper and deeper into
gloom as the realization, Of the trag-
edy grew on it. = " $50
"'They got the At, was the word
whispered among the groups who re-
manned on the street corners most
of the night, 1t meant that the At
miners imprisoned by a fire and
cave in three weeks ago, had been
found-all dead. '.'a
So great was the tragedy, so cruel
the blow to hope, that the town
seemed stunned. It moved listlessly
to its work, while in the honay-comb
of the mine, underground workers
still toiled to excavate the ~ once
strong men, now only AZ dead and
decaying corpses. - -.
A note found on one of the bodies
indicated that all the men had died
withinrfive hours of the beginning of
the fire Aug. q, officials said. "
All the miners were found behind
the second of two ,bulkheads they
had built in cross cut 1880 feet
down in the Argonaut mine Byron
M. Pickard, chief of. the Federal
Bureau of Mines for this district
was the first man. to. GO behind the
bulkhead and discovered the bodies.
The note read as follows: ~
"3 am, gas bad" The same note
bore a scrawled figure "4"'apparent-
ly indicating the same man attempt
ed to leave word for those who might
come after. of the condition Of the
mine at that hour. y
Mine officials indicated that the
condition of the cross cut behind
the bulkhead was such that life
could not have been sustained there
by the entombed men for more than
five hours I. IT,. &c. .s~
The bodies were found piled one
on top of another and decomposition
had progressed so far that identifi-
cation would be impossible, Pickard
reported. =

Large Decrease in Total Levy
for New Year Indicated =.
By Present Figures =
FEW MINOR CHANGES
STILL CONTEMPLATED
Denison Resigns From Fourth
Ward and Hickerson Is
Named as Successor -.

The proposed tax levy for the new
year formed the bulk Of the import
ant business transacted by the city
council in regular session Monday
evening Although the total levy has
as yet not been definitely decided
upon, it is evident that it will show
a large decrease over the preceding
levy of $10s,8s0.s The proposed new
levy now stands at. $86,605, but a
few changes are. expected to be made
in this amount before tits approved
by the council and resolution to
. that effect is carried. ia: .; 80;
The total general fund levy shows
an increase from =$57, $3.50 to $780,
los at the present time, this includ-
ing considerable sum to maintain
the city strets now being improved
This action has been commen ded
by City Engineer WIN: Everts as
a necessary step to insure good pass
able streets at all times.
The proposed levy=for the general
fund is as follows City building,
including upkeep and other similar
items, $3,475. Last years leavy for
this purpose was So, 600, Administra-
ton is to be cut about $1,000, ac-
:cording to- the present schedule,
from $500 to1$4,500, this largely
due to the fact that the city now
has no permanent. city engineer For
miscellaneous expenditures the new
levy may. be cut from $3, l5o1 to
1900: 5e:.rss. '*sss'..s-=$
- Municipal court will likely be
given an increased levy this year,
from So, 900 to ST. $50 this year; the
police department from $4,000 last
year to SO, 78O this year; the fire
department. from NE $1,000 last
year to 1900 this year. Health and
Sanitation will probably be raised
from .s4,35O and ST, 050; highways
from $9,75O to $I2,7O0; recreation
education, including the boys band
from 1920 to So, 49,
The big cut comes in other funds
and there is every Indication that
the new levy will be; approximately
$4,000 less than that of last year.

the issuance and sale of $4,000. in

BEMIDJI BOYS BAND GETS
ANOTHER EXCELLENT BOOST

That the impression made by the
Bemidji Boys band at the Minnesota
State fair was lasting one is EVIL
denced by letter received here by
County Auditor A. D. Johnson from
Carl j. Lager of Lager, Offerle ~
Co., Geneseo, III. Mr. Lager, in "A
business letter on other matters, saw
fit to. add the following at the clola
of his letter: ~.
"You are to be complimented on
your boys band which l had the
pleasure of listening to at your
state fair last week" -;
Such compliments show that even
those who possibly never knew much
about Bemdji before have been well
impressed by the boys band, so we'll
in fact that they are not backward
about mentioning it. y:

BEGINNERS BAND TO BE
FORMED IN. NEAR FUTURE
industrious Boys to BE Given
\ Chance to Take Up Band
Work; 100. Wanted i.

(. Industrious boys of Bemidji, be-
tween the ages of 10 and II years,
will be given an opportunity to take
IN active band work under able di-
rectiofl when Beginners band is
organized at "a meeting to be held
Wednesday evening, September 27,
at the#city hall. Such a band will be
formed, sBandmaster GO. y Riggs
states, if at least so industrious boys
who are willing to give their time
to this work will join Mr.. Riggs
desires at least 100 boysif he..can
secure them; so there Will be- plenty
of opportunity for all who wish to
enter actively into this work: How
ever, it will be necessary that these
boys join the organization at this
meeting, since practice will be start
ed as soon there: -fter' as possible
and none will BE- htaken in afterithe
work once begins. e.. =. -
Every. two years such band. is
Organized here, the class Of two
years ago having been promoted to
the Regular Boys band if they could
qualify: Only those who are deserv-
ing and whose work merits will be
passed to the regular band, Much
interest has been manifested and
it is expected that the required num-
Der of industrious boys will apply
for membership in the new band.
Ultimately this organization will be
promoted to the regular band or
as many of the boys who can quail
ly will be promoted and another new
band started.
This organization melting will be
called to order at 1870 ON the date
set and Mr.. Riggs desires to make
it plain that only those boys who
are willing to devote every effort to
developing themselves as musicians
will be- accepted. Cooperation of
these boys parents is necessary also
The states, and a meeting of the par
ents of those who desire to become
members of the new band will be
held before the band has been COM
pletely organized. Only. those music
ally inclined and willing to put in
the necessary time in practice and
home training are to--be accepted
Mr.. Riggs states =. + - 81: -
f. Should such a bad be organized,
the regular Boys band will soon be
if the members fstf1e new
prove capable. In this
way Bemidji may soon be able to
boast of an even better organization
than that which so ably represents
this city at the present time .S-sa,''~ I

BIG CHAIN WAS NOT
 PAT RENWICK ARTICLE

It was not the historic Pat Rem wick nugget watch chain that Mrs. E. l.. Doheny purchased at The Nugget Shop while in Juneau, but larger one. The Pat Renwick chain is the property of the Kirmse store at Skagway, where it is on exhibit The chain purchased at The Nugget Shop in Juneau is larg- CT and heavier than the Renwick chain It weighs 34 ouuhces as against 15la ounces for the Kirmse article
 The Nugget Shop chain was made at that institution from nuggets gathered over a long period of years. When first made it was not as large as it is now, though it was made from the largest nuggets in the shop. However, as larger nuggets were secured they were put in the chain and smaller ones removed until the chain finally weighed more than two-and-a-half pounds.
