The property was sold to the Minueapolis, Red Lake & Manitoba Ry. Co. for $42,000. the third bid submitted and the Manager Kayne, Lho -magnate of the Tocal baseball team who has had sore eyes since the latest exhibitions on the home grounds has been very busy with the pen and ink for the past two days and as a result a new line-up is announced for the home team. Mr. Kayne belicves that the city will support a winning team and with this end in view “Thas signed a number of new men. The following is the permanent line-up of the home team: Witt and Emerson, picthers; Roy, catcher, Hinds, first base; Bray- ton, second b Bongo, third base, Carl, short stop; Mchnus, There have been many pitiful scenes at the . Beltrami county jail, but one of the most pathetic that has ever developed is the abject grief of Bersvin 0. Roan, the Buzle town homesteader and the father of eleven children, who must answer to the law for the death of Ole Bakien at the home of Iver Iverson, nine miles north of Solway, last Sunday night. Roan’s sorrow at the awful deed is profound, During all of last night he was restless and slept but little, Much of the time he wept bitterly. — When brought to this city yesterday he surrounding country is expected. The institutes this yearare es- pecially interesting. A number of new and interesting features have been added to the work and L wherever institutes have been highest.

He was like a man dazed by some awful blow and not until he began to regain his mental facultlc in their normal clearness and real- ized the grim surroundings at the county jail and wlmb they meant to him did he fully realize the import of it all. He refused food ‘and walked mcessmtlv in his cell. This morning his face presented a haggard and dis- tressing appearance and the traces of the ny that he had endured during the night would touch a heart of stone with pity. He talks but little. He is unable to speak English and when some friends visited him at the jail this morning he entreated them piteously to tell him that it was - not_true and to tell him of his wife and family.

Emclson Bongo and Carl are from the m-;t Flandrean «(S. D.) team and are of renowned ability and were much sought by other amateur teams, ‘but Manager Kayne got in on the ground floor and scLumd the men. Ewmerson is a south paw twirler of no mean ability and is expected to greatly help out in the box: Hmds, it will be remembered, was in the game during the early part of the season butsuffered a sprained ankle in an exhibition on the local diamond and:was compelled to return to his homeat St. Paul, where he has latelv covered the initial sack for several of the Saintly city’s fastest team . His batting and all around playing was a revelation to Bemidjites and his retmn to team will be welcomed by local fandom. Ex-First Baseman Beuthien has been farmed to a team of lower classification and will not appear on _the local: team again this scason. .« Smith, who will inquest was not deemed neces- sary, but aj ~ _ducted : this morning, ered the femoml utery and re- sulted in Bakken’s bleeding to death. There is also a cut on one shoulder«and on the left thigh, but neither was suffi- iently rleep to cause death. Roan’s wife, who became in- sane yesterday when shelearned of the awful tragédy in which her husband was implicated, is resting “much easier this morn- ing. Kind friends have put the best possible aspect on the affair for her with the result that sl appears to be soothed. The gri . of Bakken’s wife and children’is also pathetic. The family is left n very modest circumstances. Bakken’s remains were taken back to his home this afternoon and will be interred on his howe- stead. The funeral services will be conducted. tomorrow. Roan will be arraigned at 2:30 Saturday afternoon to-plead to manslaughter in the first degree. He w:ll I)e bound over to the “grand PRINCESS Grocery Co. M. E.

Re- garding its future pians for the property Mr. Ueland said he was not privileged to say anything. The ultimate’ plans ave to develop the road and extend it to the in- ternational boundary, according to Mr. Ueland, time of the extension is indefinite.
