Princess Grocery Co SIZED UP FOR CROOKS Party of Well Known Nymore Gentlemen Have Trouble In Hubbard County. SHERIFF PURSUES THEM TO DETROIT WITH POSSE. Accused of Stealing By Steve Rhodes.—Jury Trial Results In Exoneration. Thos. McCutcheon, Solon and Ed Finley and W. J. Smith, of Nymore, had a rather unpleasant experience down in Hubbard county this week, one that caused them all sorts oi incon- venience, and finally ended in their complete exoneration of a charge of stealing preferred by Steve Rhodes, of Lake George. The four started Jast week on a trip to the Dakota harvest fields and were driving through. The first night after leaving Bemidji they camped at Lake George. They slept on some hay which had,been taken from a neighbor- ing barn, with the consent of a man whom they supposed to be the owner, and went their way next morning. The hay was the property of Steve Rhodes, who went to Park Rapids and swore out a warrant for their arvest on a charge of stealing. He told the sheriff such a rosy story of the affair that Mr. Petrie decided he had better take a posse to effect their capture. Accordingly him- self and three deputies set out to make the arrest, all armed to the teeth. They overhauled the party near Detr The sheriff was informed that they wereall bad men and all had guns and bowie knives and was surprised when he effected the arrests to find that the only weapon they had was a pocket Inife. They were taken back to Park Rapids and had a jury trial ves terday which resulted in their complete acquittal. The costs to Hubbard county will be sowme- thing more than $100 and Mr. Rhodes, of Lake George, will not be a prime favorite with County Attorney Bills or Sheriff Petrie when he comes in to complain again. New Members Qualify. The newly elected members of the school board, the Messrs. Andrews and Torrance, qualified yesterday to succeed George Tanner and D.C. Smyth. Mr. Smyth has been clerk of the board. The position of clerk will be filled by election at the next regular meeting of the board which will occur the first Saturday in August. Northome’s Limited.

MAY GET A SIT “Doc” Rutledge May Succeed Warren as Superintendent of Forest Reserve. “Doc” Rutledge, the Cass Lake newspaper man may succeed BE. L. Warren, who was recently removed from the position of superintendent of the Minnesota Forest Reserve at Cass Lake. A recent dispatch from Washing- ton is authority for the statement that a western man will probably be named for the position. = If Mr. Warren is to be succeeded it can truthfully be said that it could not be done more accept ably to the people of this section than by appointing Mr. Rutledge. “Doc’” is a tireless worker, .an enthusiast in anything he under- takes and a vigilant correspond ent who has perhaps done more to advertise Northern Minnesota resources to the outside world than any man in this section. He has hosts of Bemidji friends who would be pleased to endorse him and he is said to enter the running with the endorsement of Congressman Buckman. Con- gressman Steenerson has also been approached in his interests and provided the department has not already made a selection there is little question but that Mr, Rutledge will be the man. Many Attend Excursion. The attendance from Bemidji on the Duluth excursion today was very large. About eighty tickets were sold at the Great Northern depot. The excursion- ists included a number of Black- duck and Tenstrike people. The train was heavily loaded when it reached this city half an hour be- hind schedule time and the ex- cursionists were all in a very happy mood. Several detectives are on the train and are watching the crowd carefully to prevent pickpockets and crooks of all sorts from operating. The ex- cursion will reach this city re- turning late Sunday night. May Move to Turtle. S. D. Works, the well known lumberman, was in the city last night and states that ha is con- sidering the proposition of re- moving his hardwood mill plant from Nary to Turtle River. Mr. Works for a time considered Be- midji as a location. He has not yet definitely decided what he will do regarding the location but is inclined to favor Turtle River as it has a number of natural advantages not affored in Bemidji for industry of this kind. The mill will not be moyed until this falland is being run up to its capacity every day. Insanity Case. County Auditor Sylvester this morning receiveda telegram from the chairman of the town board of the town of Baudette advising him cf the development of a very bad case of insanity and asking what should be doune with the patient. Owing to the expense which would be involved in bringing the case here it will be taken to Roseau county and there disposed of. The expense will be borne by Beltrami county. The case is one of the first developed in the mnorthern section of the country. The Whist Tournament. The whist tournament under the auspices of the Busines: Men’s club opened last night. Two tables were played last night Graham and Rhoda made 153 points against Browne and George, who secured 159 a gain of six points. Schneider and Loud made 167 points against Hitchcock and Phibbs, who made 145, losing by a sufficiency of twenty-two points. One table played cinch. There was no business session. A Big Offer, The Crookston Lumber Co, is | offering a mammoth wagon box of short mill wood at the rate of This wood is ready for the kitchen stove, makes the ¢ |.finest kind of fuel for the kitchen fire, is splendid for kindling and is usable for all purposes. A few loads of this purchased now will dry rapidly and can be used at once as well as a provision for the winter. Telephone 208 or call up Wes Wright, Building Store Building.

Alleged That Silks and Merchan- dise are BeingBroughtAcross Beltrami County Line. According to reports which reached this city from towns in the extreme northern portion of Beltrami county, government secret service agents, who have been working in the Rainy River towns for some time ave drawing the meshes- about one of the cleverest gangs of smugglers ever discovered in this section who have been working between the north line towns for some time. It is alleged that silk and mer- chandise has been broughtacross from the Canadian side in great quantities for some time past and that the smugglers who suc- ceeded in evading the duty have been reaping the harvest. In the gangare several women and the plan seems to have been to get the goods across the line and then peddle them out in a house to house canvass. Last winter two women visited this city and called in the most, aris tocratic portion of the city show- ing a line of silk which were of- fered much cheaper than they could be bought at any store in the city. The prices asked were a general marvel and it is believed that the women were agents of the smugglers It is said to be easier to get goods across the line in northern Beltrami and ltasca counties than at any point on the Cana- dian boundary, despite the fact that the customs officers are very vigilant and some of them among the oldest men in the service. People prominent in some of the north country towns are said to be implicated and very sensational developments are said to be pending In the gang of smugglers there are several Chinamen who have been bringing opium across the lineand assisted by their country- men on this side they have been able to gev it to market and are said to bhave acquired a snug sum in profits, KILLED DEER Charles Lucore Arrested For Tresspassing on State Game Laws.
