POSTOFFICE FORNYMORE Congressman Steenerson Is Said to be Favorably Im- pressed With Petition. ITS ESTABLISHMENT WOULD NOT EFFECT LOCAL OFFICE. Probability That Mr. Steenerson Will Recommend It to the Department. The village of Nymore, Be- midji’s thriving suburb will prob- ably get its postoffice some, time in the very near future. The semi official announcement that the oftice will be established is made today. Congressman Steenerson visited the city last week to look over the situation and it is said will consider the petition favor- ably and recommend the estab- lishment of the oftice in the near future. Nymore pecple now come to the Bemidji office a dis- tance of more than a mlle for their mail and this condition has been unsatisfactory to them for some time. Many Bemidji people have not been favorable to the project for the reason that it was beleived thatif the office was established at once it would reduce the re- ceipts of the local office and re- some time to the future the bility of free delivery. The s of the local office is g g steadily, Lowever, and free delivery is something that will come in a short time with or without the Nymore business. The fear was also expressed that if an office was established at Nymore the Crookston mill which is one of the largest pat rons of the local office would do its business at that place. In- vestigation develops the fact that it would not be any greater con- senience for the mill to have its mail come from Nymore or pur- chase its postal supplies there than in Bemidji and in the eyent the oftice is established it will not be removed as a patron of the local ofti Mr. Steenerson has not yet made any positive statement re- garding the matter and will con- sult with the interests most directly affected before he does. However, it is believed that the matter is practically settled to the satisfaction of all concerned and a home mail service for Ny- more is assured in the very near future.

Joseph Strubeck went out with the boys last night and this morning he isin the county jail charged with stealing a hack and team of heorses the property of Thos: Newby. The team was standing in front of the N. P. saloon when Stru- beck took it. He drove to the Blake resort at Nymore and was sted there with -the team in his possession. Newby this morning swore out a warrant accusing him of horse stealing and he had a preliminary hear- ing before Judge Pendergast and was bound over to the grand jury. To Bachelors. There are some hundreds of thousands more men than women in the central and western states of Americaand in Canada. As a result thousands of trust- worthy men—Farmers, Miners and others— living in certain dis- tricts there cannot possibly get wives in their own nelghbor- hoods. But in England, Scotland, Ire- land and Wales there are a mil- lion more women than men and, in these countries, thousands of good, intelligent and attractive girls—many of them daughters of farmers and all of them quali- fied to make excellent wives—see nothing before them while they stay here but the prospect of living and dying as old maids and this, to them, is a decidedly un- pleasant prospect. They would willingly emigrate to America, could they be assured that, they were going to meet worthy men there as husbands, and that they could look forward to happy, if humble, homes on the other side of the Atlantic. We may say that all of them could afford to emigrate at their own axrense. We are prepared to give good men introductions to these girls. If you wish to get an introduc- tion please write us with such particulars of yourself (age, na- tionality, occupation and circum- stances) as a sensible girl would expect to get and we shall write you in reply, with a view to s bringing aboat a suitable intro- duction without delay. Tell us what kind of a wife, (age, nationality, appéarance and - | disposition) you wish to get. It you have preference for any « | particular Christian Sect please name it. 3 You will also enclose our fee of five dollars. A further fee of 45 | dollars will be due to us within one month afltcr marriage, thus making 50 dollars altogether. We do not conline ourselves to one introduction. We give as many as will be necessary until marriage. But we make no charge for any introduction after “| the payment of our said fee of five dollars for the first. It is notat all necessary that you should be a wealthy man. But it is necessary that you be a man who would make a kind and good husband to a good wife. If you arenot such a man please do not write us. Address—Messrs.

County Attorney Loud’s Assur- ance That Thorough Investi- gation Is Being Conducted. Dan Hayden, one of the pio- neer residents of Blackduck town, who is in the city today, states that the citizens in the vicinity of Blackduck and in the village of Blackduck are very much aroused over the Dahl dis- appearance and desire to.see the county authorities make every effort neccessary to solve the mystery. All sorts of stories are in cir- culation at Blackduck. The the- ory that the Dahl’s haye been murdered generally obtains and a great majority of the people who are ignorant of the careful inyestigation into the matter which is being made by Sheriff Bailey and County Attorney Loud are criticising the county authorities for laxity in looking into the matter. Connected with the stories that reach Blackduck 1s the usual amount of unreliable gossip. There are those in that village who say they can put their hand on the men who mur- dered the Dahl’s but the state- ment does not appear to be borne out by facts sufficient to warrant arrest and prosecution. Regarding the matter County Attorney Loud said this morning that there was no occasion for alarm. The circumstances in the case are peculiar and he has not given out for publication facts in his possession which are now apparently public property for the reason that he did not deem it wise. He has proceeded carefully and systematically and not since the case was first re- ported has there been a single day when an effort was not made to develop some tangible facts that would tend to bring .the guilty parties to justice. He says the people of the county at large may rest assured that the county attorney and the sheriff are look- ing after the matter carefully. In his mind there is no doubt that the Dahl’s have been mur- dered, but until the bodies have been found or something more tangible is developed there is not evidence sufficient to warrant the arrest of anybody and murder cannot be proven. All that can be done is being doneand will pe until it appears to the satisfac- tion of all that every effort is futile. Developments may be ex- pected soon.

Mrs. Herrigan, the wife of a homesteader, who lives nea1 Tenstrike and who has ,been re- ceiving treatment in Bemidji for the past month died this after- noon about 2:20 o’clock.

Arrangements for the funeral have not been made. It probably will occur in this city. Fosston and Crookston, The Fosston and Crookston base ball teams will play on the latter’s grounds tomorrow and many people at Fosston are said tohave been deluded into the impression that the boys from that town stand a chance of win- ning. Bemidji has been against the game and knows how it seems. Hotel For Big Falls. Big Falls is to have a new hotel in the very near future. It will be a tnree-story structure and will be erected by Wm.

The Sauk Center base ball team arrived in the city last night over the Great Northern and ave play- ing a game with the home team this afternoon. Another game will be played tomorrow after- noon and there is great interest in the outcome. The Sauk Cen- ter team has a record for the season that is entirely to its credit and is recognized as the | crack club of the section from which it comes. Gilchrist pitches this afternoon’s game and Doty comes tonight to pitch tomorrow’s game. Emerson will be in the box for the locals to- morrow and Riddel will be at his old position on first base.

Famous Shows, which have been united for this season, number among the per- sonale of their Company no less than one hundred superb, perfect Shetland Ponies. Atthe consolid- ation of the Shows, the stock was carefully inventoried and only the very best retained conse-! quently this season those appear- ing in the exhibition are the most aristocrastic, wellbred, intellig- ent, animals in the entire world, and their cost alone, including the many painstaikng years of slow tuition would represent an im- | mense fortune. The animals are seen to advant- age in the.superb street display which in_its augmemted appear- ance makes it exceptlonal, and it is doubly worth seeing. The date of exhibition of Gentry Bros. Famous Shows United has been definitely fixed in Bemidji, Fri- day, July 22, Safeguard the. Children.
