{., | PSS - ROSBERY AT TURTLE Masked Men Hold Up Saloon of Larkin & Dale and Make Good Haul. SECURE $120 IN CASH BESIDES REVOLYER AND GUN. Broke Into Section House, Se- cured Speeder and Made Good Their Escape. Two masked men entered the saloon of Larkin & Dale at Turtle River at 2 o'clock yesterday morning, covered the bartender, James Merkley, witharitle, broke open the cash drawer in the safe which they rifled together with the cash register. They secured §120 in cash besides a .30-30 cali- ber Winc ter rifle and two re- volvers which were kept at the saloon. From the saloon the men ran to the section house wherea hand car and speeder were kept. They took the speeder, put it on the track aud made their escape. A posse was speedily organized and tive men, well armed, took the hand car and pursued the rob- bers as far as Bemidji, where all trace of them was lost. The posse came to where the speeder had been ditched by the robbers about four miles north of this city and the tracks of the two men were followed along the rail- way track from there to the Min- nesota & International round house, and the members of the pursuing party are of the opinion that they kept steadily on toward Walker. Merkley says that he was sit- ting in the saloon at che time of the robbery with his back toward #he door, when the two men en tered and before he knew it had him covered with the rifle and he was compelled to stand up with his face against the wall. One of the men held the rifle pointed di- rectly at his head, while the other went through the safe and cash register, helping himself to all there was in them. After these had been rifled he went through all the drawers behind the bar. He found nothing of any particu- lar value in these, however, with the exception of two revolvers which were kept behind the bar for use in the case of emergencies like the one which was transpir- ing. These he took with him as well as a rifle a quantity of am- munition for the firearms. After eyery corner of the sa- loon had been searched for valu- ables the two men, keeping Merk- ley covered with the rifle, retired through the door and ran as hard as possible for the house where the speeder was kept. The time for the robbery could not have been better chosen, for a dance at Farley had attracted a large crowd from Turtle River and not a person was stirring on the streets and they ran little danger of being discovered, The authorities all along the line have been notified of the rob- bery, and although no adequate PRINCESS Grocery Co.

RIGHT OF WAY WILL COST FROM $2,000 TO $10,000. Appropriation Cannot be Made Directly to Company—Mater- ial Arrives. The city council meeting to- night will be one of the most im- portant to the people of the city thar has taken place for years, as tonight the council will take measures to provide funds for purchasing the right of way for the new Red Lake railway. The committee who have in charge the securing of the right of way have estimated that it will cost between §7,000 and $10,000 and tonight the council will dis- cuss the matter at length and in all probability will make the ap- propriation. As soon as this is done the building of the road will be commenced and the work of clearing the right of way and grading will be pushed forward with as much dispatch as possi- ble, as the contract calls for the completion of the road July 1, 1905. A large amount of cars, grad- ers, scrapers and other neces- sary material for grading arrived in the city yesterday from Min- neapolis and was unloaded at the M. & I. depot this morning. To- day it is being taken out to a point seven miles north of this city, where work will be com- menced. Besides the railway matter, the council will make arrange- wments for taking up about $4,000 worth of outstanding orders which have been i i ment of waterwo SATISFIED Residents of the Big and Little Fork Valleys Anticipate Easy Winter. Residents of the Big and Little Forks valleys were never in bet- ter condition to stand a hard win- ter than this year, according to the statement of Andrew Nes sen, a homesteader, who resides on his claim near the village of Laurel. *Crops have been generally good in our locality,” said Mr. Nessen last night, “and every- one in that portion of the state is satisfied with the prospects of getting through a hard winter in good shape.” Several towns in the Big and Little Fork valleys were opened this year and there has been a decided increase in settlement,. A majority of the homesteaders have made permanent homes on their claims and are depending upon what crops they can raise for their entire support. Both rivers are navigable for a consid- able distance from their junction with the Rainy and little trouble has been experienced in getting products to market. A large number of homestead- ers have been residing on their lands for several years and other are just proving up. It is pos- sible that a majority who entered on the lands last spring were squatters and it will not be long before the greater part of the valley which has been entered will patented. FOREST FIRES Time for Blazes in Woods at Hand and Ample Precautions Should be Taken. The time of year when forest fires rage has arrived and ampie precautions should be taken by campers, hunters and homestead- ers to avoid the scrious losses which occur nearly every year as a result of leaving fires burn- ing. A smoldering heap of ashes is often blown into a bright flame by the wind, and in some cases the loss from an act of careless- ness has amounted to any thous- ands of dollars, not only to the large timber owners, but also to the homesteaders. The woods are dry and even a match thrown carelessly to the ground may cause a very serious conflagra- tion, There is no manner in which fires of this sort can be subdued, and it is to the inter- est of every man living in the timber belt of northern Minne- sota to tako precautions to avoid them. deseription of the two-men could be given, a sharp watch is being Phone 282 kept up for their appearance. TAKE ACTION \BEMIDJI TAKES GAME City Council Will Make Pro-|Local Foot Ball Aggregation Defeats Park Rapids Yes- terday Afternoon. FOUR TOUCHDOWRS FOR LOCALS MAKES SCORE 20 TO 0. Interesting Contest Witnessed by Large Crowd of Enthusias- tic Rooters. The foot ball game yesterday Park Rapids ended in a score of 20 to 0 in favor of the former. The contest was. perhaps the most interesting and exciting ever played in the city and was witnessed by a large crowd of rooters and the excitement at some times was intense. The feature of the game was a long run by Brannon, right end, who made a touchdown in two min utes play. The teams were lined up as follows: Park Rapids pos Bemidji Gauge:..... re" :..... Smyth White...... rt ....Peterson Blandon.... rg .. Bailey Petrie...... ¢ ...Markham Steel .... . 1g ....Bradley Myers..... 1% ...Getchell Pickle.. le Bailey Wright. q . ...Perkins Bisiar rh ....Brannon Smyth. . 1h ...Geil, Finn Walling..... fb ...... Arnold The first half of the game was decidedly one-sided, as during the first 25 minutes’ play Bemidji made three touchdowns, one by Brannon and the other two by O. E. Bailey. The 1-tter made his by going through the line. In each instance the goal was missed, two by Perkins and the other by Peterson. The second half was more even, and although it was played mostly in Park Rapids territory, they held better and only one touchdown was scored by Bemidji. Getchell made this one and under adverse circum- stances, as he made a gain of nine vards with six of Park Rapids’ husky men trying to hold him. Every man in both teams did ex cellent work, notably Brannon, O. E. Bailey, Getchell, Peterson, Markham and Perkins. Arnold did good work at full back con- sidering that he has a broken collar bone which is far from be- ing well. The Park Rapids aggregation is composed of a very gentle- manly lot of boys and they did not seem in the least “sore’” over their defeat, but took it as only gentlemen can take it. A return game will be arranged with them and it is expected that alarge number of Bemidji en- thusiasts will attend the event.
