STEAM UP TUESDAY Big Mill Will Begin to Saw Lumber Again Tuesday or Wednesday. FIRST FIRES BUILT UNDER ~ " "BOILERS LAST NIGHT. Foundation for Boilers Placed 01 . Lake Bottom to Prevent Repetition of Accident. The first fires to be built under the boilers of the big mill of the CrookstonLumbercompany since the strange sinking of the boilers more than a month = ago were kindled last night and a slight smoke curling: from the tall smokestackwas a:welcome sight this morning. Sawing will begin not later than Wednesday and possibly by Tuesdpy. It is three weoeks yesterday noon since the boilers at the mill suddenly settled some fcurteen inches necessitating the closing down of the mill, the taking out of the foundation and the build- ing of a new support upon an en- tirely different plan, June 15th was the date set by Sup’t. George Murch for the comple- tion of the work and the starting of the mill again and the result shows thathe figured very accur- ately. Just what caused the boilers to sink is still a mystery’ but Sup't Murch believes that possi- bly the high water is to blame. For the foundation piles were first driven into the lake and uppn these piles rested a heavy timber crowned by extra heavy planking. Above the planking was a ten inch layer of cement, above that twenty-four inches of sand, then a solid brick floor. twenty eight inches above which were the fire grates. The in- tense’heat penetrated through each of thé these layers and turned the sill resting on the, siling to charcoal. Owing to the high water this year there was no air space under the sill which perhaps accounts for the char- ving of the sill, there being no way for the heat to escape: A repetition of the accident will be' impossible as a wall has been built in the lake around the boilers, and sand pumped in so that the foundation for the boil- ers now rests on the bottom. of the lake and unless the ‘crust of the earth gives way the boilers are fixed for all time. When the accident first oc: ‘curred it was feared that the mill would be closed for six weeks or two months and it is only owing to the vigor and per- sistence with which™ Sup’t. Murch has pushed the work that so_much_time~has-been saved. He has well-nigh-worked day and night and by his expedition has rendered a great service to Be- midji as well as t6 the company.

MYSTERY IS COMPLETE Diligent Search Reveals No Clue to Whereabouts of N. 0. Dahl and Daughter. DISAPPEARANCE OF -AGED MAN AND DAUGHTER PUZZLESALL. Citizens . of Quiring to Organize For Systematic Search of . Country Surrounding The whereabouts of N. O. Dahl and his daughter, Miss Aagot Dahl, who are missing from their homestead near ~Quiring post. office, is still a mystery, despite the fact that a very diligent search of the surrounding coun- try has been made and every clue that might lead to their dis- covery dead or alive has been fol- lowed to the end. The case is one of the strang- est that has ever come to the at- tention of the public in this sec- tion. At first foul play was feared, but there is absolutely no clue to base specific charges against anyone and no suspicious circumgtances to connect anyone with the matter in any way be- yond the fact that Dahl was be- lieved to have a large sum of money on-his™ person. 1f the pair were murdered there is not the faintest clue about the prem- ises to warrant the belief. Theve are no marks of a struggle, the interior of the cabin in which they made their home was found in almost perfect order and the wildest suspicion is unable to connect anyone with the disap- pearance with any degree of son. Relatives of the missing pair have communicated with every place where they might have gone, but nothing has been deyeloped and . the deepest mystery surrounds the whole affair. The citizens in the vicinity of Quiring are much exercised over the case and Monday every avail- able man in the neighborhood will be engaged ina systematic search of the entire country in that vicinity in an effort to dis- cover some clue that will lead up to a solution of the strange dis- appearance. 2 Many believe that both were enticed from the cabin on some pretext,murdered and the bodies buried in some remote place in the woods.. About two months have elapsed since they werelast seen alive and there ‘has beén plenty of time for the elements to efface any trace of a grave made in the woods. There-are no lakes or streams in that yicinity that they would cross in going anywhere and the theorvy that they' may ‘haye been drowned in some manner is very unsatisfactory. The case baffles all efforts at unraveling so far and investiga- tion only surrounds it-with more impenetrable-mystery. Goes to St. Paul. (©. W. Donovan, who has been in Bemidji for the past several months and has been employed on local newspapers in various capacities expects to leave in the near future for St. Paul, where he will be employed on a St. Paul paper.
