HOPE FOR VICTORY Bemidji Running Team Con- testing For Championship " Honors This Afternoon. " TEAM GOES INTO. RACE WITH EXCELLENT PROSPECTS. - Admitted That Banner Race Will Be Between Hallock, Warren and Bemidji Teams. The Bemidji running team in attendance at the Firemen’s Tournament at Hallock this after- noon: contests for the champion- * ship of the Northern Minnesota ‘association in the banner: hose race and news of the outcome is anxiously awaited in this city. The race was run about 4 o’clock and the result should be known some time this evening. A ‘special to the Pioneer from “SHUT 0 Brainerd Turns the Picture of the Home Team to the Wall Yes- terday_Afternoon. another to its list of shut-outs yesterday afternoon, when it dropped a game to the Brainerd team by ore of 910 0. Witte pitched and was given miserable support. The ‘locals failed as usnal to hit the ball and played a very ragged game. There was a sad lack of ginger all-around and_the game should not have been lost. The home team is faster than the Brainerd bunch but combined hard luck in the hitting with listless, half- hearted playing and made a spectacle of itself. The infield yesterday was the sttongest yet but the outfield did the business. Ludwig was put out in the fifth with a broken finger and Finn went in to catch, Hazen who went to his position in left field made two yellow errors and Neelan entered the running with a brace quite as,bad. The visi ors were allowed to play horss Hallock this morning states that the boys arrived in good shape and were-in-excellent trim and :~spirits; They are the lightest team in attendance at the tourna- ment and the track is slow, but they are confident of winning nevertheless. In the coupling - contest which occurs tomorrow Earl Geil and Ray Dennis will be entered for ‘the home depart- ment. Dennis recently made the coupling in four and one half seconds and it has often been won iu five and slower. Geil, who: is a sure coupler, is going: in about five seconds and better. The banner race is the best event of the entire program. The Hallock and Warren teams in at: tendanceare alsoin splendid form and the contest is admittedly be- tween the teams from those towns and Bemidji. HUMMER TOWN Shotley, New Town On Red Lake Will Be One of The Banner Ones. The new town on Red Lake, which has been anticipated by real estate men for -some time and is generally conceded as one of the bést possibilities in this section will be platted in the near future .and is to be known as Shotley. Several well known Be- . midji gentlemen are interested in the townsite, —Those who are'@miliat with the | possibilities of the north country have long predicted that some | day there would be a good town'| on Red Lake and the promoters of the townsite of Shotley c)u.m) their town will be the place, It is on the shore of Red Fake a short distance from the narrows and is admirably located for a famous summer resort.and for all _.sother purposes as’ well. The surrounding caun/ti:y} is rich -in timber and it will be a center for a very large tributary territory. It is claimed that a railway will beat Shotleyinside of a year and already there are a number of settlers there. Fourth of July goods at Pet- erson’s. ¢ PRINCESS Grocery Co.

Charles H. Freeman, an old time printer, who was for several weeks employed on the Pionéer and is a well known character to the printing fraternity of the Northwest-had one of the most exciting experiences ina_roman- tic career in leaving Bemidji last night. FKreeman is one of the lastof the type of quaint, queer, philosophers, the old time tramp printer and regards it as a sinful waste of money: to pay railroad fare. A genialdisposition has made him friends all over the country and ah excellent workman, he is always ‘“‘good”’ and he has neither more nor le: than-the -average-of-the-gen social shortcomings of the craft. Two weeksat the caseon the Pioneer equipped him with a grub stakeand he started on o junket westward. He chose a point of vantage on the last car of the train and was doing an ob- servation car stunt all to himself when the brakeman discovered him; he was tdken inside, made to pay fare to Crookston and” when last heard from was repining over the failupe of the crew to recog- nize. th7 old-time editorial mileage of the‘craft, a half pint of good + E Lol “licker”! i All Want the Printers.

The printing house bunch will include the all star athletes of the three newspaper offices of the city and it will be a sad day for the clerks—alright, when the time arrives for them to get their bumps. The Hoo Hoos are also anxious to take on the printers and Manager John Wilm—is fairly swamped with challenges to ‘‘come on’’ifyou aint afraid.”’* Goats Come to Sad End. Up the Buena Vista way, the top of the world as J. W. Speel- man says, they have their ups and downs and its a dull day when there isn’t something do- ing.

A police officer told him'such a man had spent the day in Eau Claire, and he be- lieyed was about to leave on the same train by which the sheriff was traveling.
