—_and-at-other places in that sec R —— ] PIONEER DEAD AT CASS LAKE Pat Kiley Swallows Aconite for Cough Medicine and Is Dead. FUNERAL LARGELY ATTENDED —AT CASS LAKE YESTE RDAY. Deceased Had Helped to Clear the Grounds for the /" Present Townsite. Cass Lake citizens turned out in-large numbers yesterday to honor the memory of Patrick Kiley, one of the pioneers of the town, who died Sunday night from poison. Mr. Kiley and his wife were caring ‘for the Neils lumber camps two miles from town and as the former had a bad cold, he __took a swallow of what he judged from the label on the bot- tle, was cough medicine, but which afterwards proved to be aconite. In a few minutes he was taken violently sick, and though his wife administered such antidotes as happened to be on hand, her husband imploring her not to Jeave him to get a doctor, he died in an hour’s time. Deceased was 65 years of age; anative of Ireland, and leaves a wife and three grown sons. He was one of those who helped clear the original townsite of - Cass Lake. Owing to his famili- arity with the woods, he was se- lected as guide during the Indian uprising at Leech Lake in 1898, and rendered efficient services. INDIAN GRAVES MADE BIG CATCH [ Cass- Lake Sportsmen Make A Fine Haul of Muskallonge This Week. Cass, Lake, May 11:—(Special to-the Pioneer:)-The first-catch of big fish was made here on Tuesday evening, when five large muskallonge were taken from Cass Lake with hooks and 1inés. Alex Kittson, the vetern guide, James and Robert Fisher and two other men succeeded in catching the fish. They were near the shore of Cedar lsland, which is in Cass Lake, three miles east of the boat landing. All of the fishermen are old hands at the angling game, and they are well acquainted with the habits of the muskallonge and where they feed. One of their favorite spots is on the shore of QCedar Island, and during the past three years many large specimens have been caught there. This is the season of the year when they are in shallow water, and they bite at most any- thing. They succecded in catch: ing five muskallonge, the largest of which tipped the scales at ex- ONE YEAR OLD | Schneider Bros.

In the strip of land on the lake front designated some time ago as a park by the city council are a number of mounds that always attract attention from the visitors to the beautiful walik-along the lake shore for the first “time. Any number of theories for the mounds have been advanced. They may have ‘just happened? or some human agency may have been responsible. The most plaus- ible theory seems to be that the mounds are Indian graves. It is known that the lake shore along the boulevard- was —for many years a favorite burying ground for the Indians and In- dian grayes have been located in the near vicinity of Judge Spoon- er’s residence on the lake front tion. Farther up the lake shorq and outside the city limits is an old burying ground used by the Tadians many years ago before the white man ever came to this __section.. [ypislocated on one of the most picturesque spots on the shore line. A party of pic- “nicers last year found human bones in that vicinity and this led up to the discovery that quite a number of Indian graves were located in that vicinity. Pipes, arrowheads and a number of other trinkets were found there which had no doubt been buried with the braves by their people. ANNOUNCEMENT Important One Will be Made in will know the reason why.
