CITY COUNCIL UP THE STUMP City Water Works Proposi- tion Is Fraught With Seri- ous Complications. One of the hardest problems that have presented themselves to the city council of Bemidji is the water works proposition which at the present time is in a more serious condition than ever Dbefore. After spending thousands of dollars to equip the city with an up-to-date system of waterworks, after all the connec- tions to the new wells had been made, after a pump house had been built and a pump installed, it was found at the last minute that the wells were inadequate to supply the city with water and that some different arrangement would be necessary to furnish enough water for the patrons who now use city water. Just what to do is the question that the council is unable to solve. Experts have been sent for to look the plani over, but as yet nothing has been done and at the present time it looks as if the matter will be laid over until next spring. The water now being pumped into the mains comes from shallow wells and is not fit for drinking purposes. Snow Needed. M. P. DeWolf, the timber cruiser, came in this morning from Schooleraft lake, where Iog ing operations are actively under way. Mr. DeWolf says that more snow is needed.

BOUCHER HERE FOUR DAYS AGO Missing Man Seen in this City in the Best of Health. Late this afternoon it was learned that George Boucher is still in Bemidji. George Boucher of Anoka, sup- posed to have been shot and ser- iously injured somewhere in this section, was seen in Bemidji not more than four days ago by A. W. Mitchell, who knows his well. Boucher was at that time in the office of T. J. Miller & Co., look- ing for employment but Mxr. Mil- ler informs the Pioneer that he refused an offer of $26 per month and no further trace of the man can be found. Boucher informed Ma. Michell | that he was on the Schooleraft| drive last spring and that he had been in North Dakota all summer having just returned from the west when he met Mr. Mitchell. He was practically without money and was looking for an odd job to pay expenses until he could se- cure a position in the woods to his liking. The young man’s people in Anoka have been informed of the facts in the case. NOVEL GIFT OF TURKEYS |The Enterprising Firm of Schneider Bros. Inaugu- rates a Novel Feature.
