] DEMAND FOR CITY BATHS A General Demand for Better Bathing Facilities On the Lake Shore. SOME NUISANCES WHICH NOW EXIST WOULD BE ABATED. City Baths Would Add to Be- midji's Attractiveness As a Summer Resort. A good many people in Bemidji |’ feel that it is time that steps were taken to secure public baths. It is pointed out that public baths could be put in at comparatively a small expense and that the re- turns would be very considerable during the bathing season. A prominent citizen in speak- ing to the Pioneer about the mat- ter this morning declared that while the city itself might not feel like undertaking the proposition of public baths at this time, some provisions should be made, through the Business Men’s club, or otherwise to secure them at once. The bathing season is now at its height and scores take ad- vantage of Lake Bemidji's beach every day. Nevertheless hun- dreds are debarred from enjoy- ing the water as they would like by reason of the facs that thereis no way to do so without doing so very publicly or else going too far up the lake. Were publicbaths established, affording a conven- ient place for dressing for the water, with the conveniences us ually found at such places they would be patronized by hundreds who now seldom venture into the lake for a bath. The use of the lake shore within the city limits by young boys is now a nuisance that is fast getting to be intoler- able. Public baths would be an ample remedy. Moreover the establishment of public baths itis wointed out would add much to the attract- iveness of Bemidji as a summer resort and would be a means of bringing more and more people here annually.- The fact of the matter is that Bemidji now does very little to take advantage of its opportunities as a summer resort. These are views ex- pressed to the Pioneer by numer- ous citizens and it 1s hoped that steps may soon be taken for the establishment of some sort of public baths. FOOT SMASHED Ole Dahl Sustains Serious Injury While Unloading Cars at the Mill. Ole Dahl, an employe of the Crookston Lumber company,sus- tained a very painful and serious injury yesterday while unloaduw logs from cars at the company’s mill in this city.

All traftic on Sauk Centre line of the Great Northern was tied up by a frieght wreck at Kagle Bend for seyeral hours yester- day. The Minneapolis passenger due to arrive in this city at 8:00 o’clock last night did not arrive until this morning and the wreck- ing crew from Melrose had worked nearly all night in clear- ing up the wreck. An open switch was the cause of the trouble. The trains were north and south bound regular eights and one had taken the ding. The brakewman neglected toline the switch back for the main line and the engineer of the other train did not notice it until it was too late. Besides this the air brakes refused to work and both engine crews were com- pelled to jump to escape injury. A number of cars were strewn along the right of the way for some distance. The train returning did not leave this city until 10 o’clock this morning. Mr. Edmunds Candidacy. In this issue will be found a card announcing the candidacy of Prof. H. M. Edmund for the office of County Superintendent. This is the result of earnest solicitation on the part of the friends of education, irrespec- tive of the party or faction throughout the county. To the qualities of a born educator Mr. Edmunds adds the happy faculty of inspiring others with his own love of learning, a broad culture and a maturity of judgment that comes only from years of suc- cessful experience. Should the schools of the county be fortunate enough to secure his services, they will experience the beni- ticial effect for the next decade. Makes Fine Fuel.| A visit to the plant of the Crookston Lumber Company discovers the fact that the com- pany has on hand hundreds of loads of short pine suitable for fuel, ready cut ordinary stove length and sold in mamoth loads for per load making twice as much wood asis ordinarily ob- tained for that money. Bemidji people haye already begun to appreciate what a convenience this wood is but in Crookston hundreds of loads of it are sold every season, every family buy- ing from five to ten loads and piling it up for winter use. The wood dries very rapidly and makes a fine fuel for the kitchen stove as well as furnishing splen- did kindling. A Unique Mounting. Heary Buenther is mounting a very unique specimen at his es- tablishment this week. Com- pleted it will represent two hand- some buck deer in a fight. Their horns are locked and the effect will be very attractive. The mount is being made for W. M. Ross and will be placed in the display window of his new Nard- ward store. The heads are per- fect and the two deer were shot in the position in which they will be mounted* Council Meeting. The regular meeting of the council last night dewloped no important worl K besides the regu- lar routine business of the coun- cil, such as allowing bills of minor importance, A contract for the building of the new pumping sta- tion was let to Pat \Mnnm«r for $692.

The Pioneer is in receipt of one of the finest specimens of timothy ever seen in northern Minnesota. The sample was grown on the _| farm of John Enright, near Buena Vista, and stands sixty-one and one-half inches high, Mr. En- "| right has been somewhat puzzled as to the manner of harvesting a “|crop of timothy so heavy, and asks the advice of other tillers of *| the soil.

Cured of Chronic Diarrhoea After Ten Years of Suffering. “I wish to say a few words in praise of Chamberlian’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy,”’ says Mrs. Mattie Burge, of Mar- tinsville, Va. ¢I suffered from chronic diarrhoea for ten years and during that time tried vari- ous medicines without obtaining any permanent relief. Last sum- mer one of my children was taken with cholera morbus, and I pro- cured a bottle of this remedy. Only two doses were required to give her relief. I then decided to try the medicine myself, and did not use all of one bottle be- fore [ was well and I have never since been troubled with that complaint. One cannot say too much in favor of that wonderful medicine.”” This remedy is for sale at Barker’s Drug store. L ECEEEEEEEEEFEEERECEEEE v BASE BALL 3} P ] M53333233223m 3008020050 The attention of the base ball patronizing public is called to the fact that next Sunday’s game be- tween Melrose and Bemidji will be called at 2:30 instead of 3:30 as heretofore. Negotiations are_pending for securing a game between Aitkin, which claims the championship of northern Minnesota, and the home team, to be played in this city in the near future. “Flatner’s Flyers” is the latest in the way of base ball in Be- midji, and chalienges the Winter department store bunch for a game Friday evening. Hasty Cunniugham will do the twirling for the Flyers. This evening the printers of the city will meet the clerks ina base ball game which promises to be veryinteresting. The clerks have secured the best talent available, but the printers are not as slow a bunch as they look and expect to come out on top in the tussle which commences at the old ball grounds this evening at 7:30. The “Has Beens,” captained by A. P. White, will meet the regular Bemidji team. Emerson and Roy will be the battery for Captain White’s team, while Witt and Finn will do the honors for the regular bunch. The game is for the championship of Be. midji, and when it is taken into consideration that such men as Barker, Brooks and Slocum have been secured for the new aggregation, it looks as if the game would be one of the most interesting of the present decade. AWFULDEATH Three People Lose Lives iq Fire At Nashwauk Resort Early Yesterday. Three people lost their lives at an early hour yesterday in a tive, believed to have been of in- cendiary origin, in the little town of Nashwauk, on the Western Mesaba range, about fifteen miles from Hibbing.
