DESERVES SUPPORT Public Library Needs the Active Assistance of Every Citizen. WORKS ACCOMPLISHED BY THE LADIES OF BEMIDJI. Musicale Planned for Monday March 27 for Benefit of the Library. It is alittle more than a year since the Bemidji Public Library was founded, yet today the library contains nearly 1500 vol umes and enjoys a patronage from the people of the city which is steadily increasing. Yet the library is without any ‘“‘visable means of support.”’ To maintain it, to say nothing of the cost of new books which must be added constantly if the library is to beof seryice to the city, costs 1n the neighborhood of $300 per year at present. To raise this money the ladies who are giving freely of their time for the city’s benefit need and should have the active cooperation of every citizen. Thelibrary is of incalcuable benefit to Bemidji and a little thought, a little effort and a little contribution on the part of each citizen will make it soon one of the best litraries in the state. Everyone in Bemidji is eligible to membership in the association and the membership fee of one dollar a year is the only source of revenue which the library has, The library books are free to every citizen and this privilege is worth a great deal to the city and to the indiyidual citizen, and every one should be glad to con- tribute a dollar a year to the sup- port of so important a public in- stitution. SAYS HE HAS EVIDENCE Matt Gannon Promises Live- In Time at Coming Ses- sion of Grand Jury. Matt Gannon, plaintiff in the contest case against the owners of the townsite of Spooner, has been in the city several days and states that he is loaded with evi- that portends no good for some of Beltrami county’s officers if it be told at the coming session of the grand jury. | Gannon tells astory to the .effect that the recent election held in the new town was called by the regularly authorized offi- cials, but that the houses of ill fame, acting on the authority of one of the county officials, put up another ticket which was defeat- ed. Gannon was re-elected chair- man of the supervisors and John Lindsey and Peter Roddell were chosen trustees. Regarding a recent interview with JudgeMon- tague of Crookston published in the Pioneer a few days ago. Gan- non says that he is not aware of any decision having been handed down from the land office at Crookston and claims that there is no possible show for the town- site company to win the case that they are now fighting.

A considerable falling off has taken place in the price of eggs during the past few days, and it costs only 18 cents to procure a dozen at the presont time. The price two weeks ago was 35 cents. Wm. Gorman, an old time resi- dent of Bemidji who has spent the winter at Havre, Montana, arrived in the city last night to TOOK POISON BUT WAS SAVED Gary Young Womén, Disap- pointed In Love, At- tempts Suicide. Despondent because her lover; Dr. Gronvold of Gary with whom she has kept company for over a year, had become enamored of another, Miss Tillie Ovaldson of Gary, attempted to commit sui- cide by drinking a large quantity of carbolic acid Miss Ovaldson has for some- thing over a year, according to reports, kept company with Dr. Gronvold, a prominent Gary phy- sician, and lately when she learn- ed that the doctor was bestowing his affection updbn another, a prominent young lady at Twin Valley, a short distance away, she became despondent. Her despondency increased Thurs- day afternoon when she learned her supposed intended had driv- en to Twin Valley for the ostens. ible purpose of visiting his other lady friend. The young lady immediately hired a livery rig set out after her unfaithful lover, with the result that she caught him a mile from Twin Valley, forced him to return with her to Gary and brought down a storm of abuse and wrath upon her head such as she never before heard. Upon returning home the words of her lover spoken in the hieght of wrath, cut her ‘deeply. The doctor had told her that it was all over between them and that she need neyer more consider him as even a friend. DAILY PAPER GOES BUMP Crookston Journal Proprie- tors File Petition in Bankruptey. Messrs Crawford & Berkland, who purchased the Crookston Daily Journal about two months ago have filed a petition in bank- ruptcy placing their assets at $15,145 and their liabilities at $17,280.35. The Journal has been a losing proposition from the start. N.S. Gordon purciased the plant and started a daily about four years ago. In two and a half years he lost about $25,000. The paper was then taken over by the stockholders of the Scandia American Bank of Crookston, one.of whom is Con- gressman Halvor Steenerson. Extensive improvements were made in the plant and a first class paper was published for the fun of which the stockhclders paid some $15000 out of their pockets. The history of the Crookston Journal proves pretty conclus- ively that it takes a pretty large town to maintain more than one good daily ly paper. ENJOYABLE TIME SPENT Large Number Turn Out to Attend Grand Ball Given by the Eagles.

English and Arthur Wright were the floor managers, and under their direction the dance went off smoothly and very successfully. The Bemidji or- chestra furnished music for the occasion Startling Mortality. Statistics show startling mort- ality, from appendicitis and per- itonitis.

GREEN. qThe aid of scientific inventions is not needed to determing whether your lungs are affected. The first symptoms can be readily noted by anyone of average in- telligence. QThere is no disease known that gives so many plain warnings of its approach as consumption, and no serious disease that can be so eg;nckly reached and checked, if the medicine used is Dr. Boschee's German Syrup, which is made to.cure consumption, qlt is in the early s(ages that Ga'man Syrup should be taken, when warnin; are given in the cough that won't quit, the con; n of the bronchial tubes and the wukenmg of the lungs, ac- ;:am uent expectoration. qBut no mxttu ow deep-seated your cough, even if dread consumpt.wn has already attacked your lungs, German Syrup will surely effect a cure—as it has done before in thousands of apparently hopeless cases of lung trouble.
