Harry Stanley, a woodsman who has been employed at the camp of the J. Irvine company near Blackduck, was accidentally killed by a falling tree Thursday afternoon. Stanley has worked for the company during the entire win- ter, having gone from this city to enter the employ of the com- pany last fall. He was standing - under the tree when it fell and in spite of a desperate effort he was unable to escape and the tree fell upon him, crushing out his life. Mr. Stanley was formerly em- ployed as a cook at the Palace cafe and is well known to many Bemidji people. This is' the second death re ported from camps in this vicinity during the winter, besides a ]m ge number of injuries. ROBBED HIS EMPLOYERS Homesteaders Leave Man at Cabin and Come Home to Find Money Gone. A warrant was issued yester- day afternoon by Judge Pender- gast charging Percy Bronley, a labororer who has been employ- ed by Louis and Clarence Straw- bridge, two homesteaders who live in the town of Grant Valley, of having taken money from the cabin of the homesteaders during their absence. The warrant is now in the hands of Sheriff Bailey but the man is still at large. The Strawbridges claim that the man has been cutting cordwood for them for some time past, but that yesterday morning he de- clined to go out to work, saying that the weather was too cold. They both went out, leaving the man alone at the cabin. When then they returned at dinner time Bronley was missing together with $15 in money which had been kept in a trunk and $2 which was in the pocket of one of the homesteadel S. PRINCESS Grocery Co.

CARSON, Mgr Phone 282 MORE SAW Reported That C. A. Smith Will Remove His Saw Mill to Bemidji. A report is current in Bemidji to the effect that C. A. Smith, who is heavily interested in the Minueapolis, Red Lake & Mani- toba Railway company, intends to remove his large saw mill from Minneapolis to Bemidji, and that he has already started to tear down the mill. While the report is not authen- ticated, it is claimed by reliable men that the rumor is true and that there is no doubt about Mr. Smith’s intention to make Be- midji the headquarters of. his large lumber manufacturing business. It is stated that the mill will be located on the east side of Lake Irvine, where asite is available, and that instead of shipping his logs through to Minneapolis they will be manufactured in this city, CUTLER WAS DEFEATED Bemidji Man Comes OQut Seec- ond Best in Fight at Cass Lake Last Night. About thirty Bemidjites went over to Cass Lake on the freight train yesterday evening, to see the glove contest, at the Crystal Bay theatre, ‘between Charles Cutler, lately a resident of this place, and a scrapper from Superior, known as the “Kerry Kid.” . There was alarge crowd in the theatre, and the fight and the preliminary were certainly exci iig (no:gh to please tte dyed-in-the-wool sports present. Art Ludwig, of Cass Lake, and Rice, of Walker, sparred four rounds as a curtain raiser, and the match was a pretty one, Lud- wig surprising his friends by his cleverness with the “mitts.” The main bout was put on at about midnight. Wken the men stripped, it was seen that Cutler was the larger man, while the “Kid” was much better trained. “The Kid” whose real name is said to be Burns, enjoys the re- putation of being the toughest rough rough and tumble fighter at the head of the lakes, and he gave the spectators an exhibition of his dirty tactics, all through the fight. He repeatedly held and strangled Cutler, and the re- feree(a Superior man) was deaf to the cries of ‘‘foul” from the crowd. There was some heavy slugging, in which Cutler was at a decided advantage, owning to the strangling methods of his opponent, In the eight round the referee counted Cutler out, but at the conclusion the latter did not bear a mark beyond a slight abrasion on his chin. The “Kid” was ornamented with a beautiful dark eye, of huge di- mensions, and his mouth was considerably awry. Itis believ- ed that if Cutler was in good con- dition, and was put in the hands ofa good trainer, for several weeks, he could easily put the “Kid” away in another contest. Plan Reform. A movement is on foot among the women in Bemidji that will be of much benefit to the city when it once reaches full head- way. It is to secure a good grade of fiour put up in Bemidji.

It is milled especially for the Bemidji Eleva- tor company so that in addition to being an excellent flour, itis practically an article of home manufacture. Valentine Day Dance.

PAYMENT PASSED OFF QUIETLY AND SATISFACTORILY, Indians Accept Money Without Complaint—Merchants Do Good Business. E. A. Barker and W, L. Brooks returned last night from Red Lake, where they attended the first per capita payment made by the government to the Red Lake Indians for lands opened to settlement last fall. They report that the payment passed off very quietly and seemed to be entirely satisfac: tory to the Indians, who did not town - was crowded with mer- chants from all northern Minne- sota points, .and Crookston, Be midji, St. Hilaire and Fosston were well represented. As soon as the Indians received their checks they at once began buy® ing supplies, and every store in town was kept busy for three days handing out goods to poor Lo. A few of the Indians became intoxicated after having received their money, and it was evident that some one was selling liquor to them. A vyigorous search was instituted, but no evidence was secured, and - consequently the arrest of the guilty parties was not accomplished. The payment amounted in all to a little more than 62,000, and each man, woman and child over 18 years of age received $85.18. The money due those under that age will be held by the govern- wment in trust until they become of age. Another Case of Rheumatism Cured by Chamberlains Pain Balm The efficacy of Chamberlain’s Pain Balm in the relief of rheu- matism is being demonstrated daily.

Moore, proprietor of the Nymore saw mill, which was des- troyed by fire Tuesday, says that he will rebuild the plant as soon as possible and the work of replacing the machinery will be commenced at once. Mr. Moore did not carry any insurance and the loss is estimated by him to be about $800. Eagles Dance Postponed.

Albert Hyérs, of Carmel, Bel- trami county, was burned to " | death on his claim last Monday- night. It was at first thought he was the victim of a brutal murder but indications point to accidental death. The story brought to Thief River Falls is that last Monday nightLouis Kettleson, a neighbor of Hyers’ was at his cabin in the evening. He left there about 9 p. m., returning to his own cabin a short distance away. Shortly after arriving home he heard some shots fired and looking out of the window discovered Hyers’ house was onfire. Heran to the scene and found the building in flames, he went to the door ard {ound Hyers laying on the ground His a few feet from&:fihe house. ed and covered face was scraty with blood. He had evidently gone to bed leaving a hot fire in the stove, which set fire to-the building. The smoke and gas probably caused him to awaken but in a dazed condition and in trying to escape he wrenched the door part way open then turned and jumped through the window and having been severely burned in- ternally expired without regain- ing consciousness.
