Distance by Rail From Bemidji Will Be About Thirty Five or Six. Miles. At a conference held Saturday between the officials of the Great Northern and the Shevlin Car- penter company it was decided to extend the branch north from Wilton from Island Lake the present terminus to the Red Lake agency. This was done in answer to a petition unanimously signed by the business interests at the agency and by all the In dians. Island Lake is about six miles from the agency. The road to Island Lake will be completed and trains will be running on scheduled time by July 1 and the extension into the agency will probably be completed early in the fall. The total distance from Bemidji to the agency by this road will be about 385 or 36 miles. The Pioneer has reliable in- formation to the effect that the road will be built of standard steel upon a standard road bed and will be equipped with an effi- cient freight and passenger ser- vice. Western Beltrami county © wiil be the gainer by at least three new towns which will spring up along the line of the road. In this connection it behoves Bemidji to use every effort to have this city made the terminal of the road as the benefits which willacerue to Bemidji from the development of the rich western part of the county through which the road runs will be of a most substantial nature.

MANY TRUANTS ROUNDED UP Seventy-five Who Were Not Attending School Round- ed Up by Officer. A noticeable ircrease in the number of pupils attending the city schools has been evident since the employment of a truant officer, and hardly a child of school age is now seen around on the streets during school hours. A count of the children rounded up was made yesterday by Tru- ant Officer J. E. Patterson, and the number forced to attend school was found to be 75. Offi- cer Patterson made a report of his work at the meeting of the school board held last night, and the members were agreeably surprised at the number of tru- ants that have been taken in dur- ing his seryice. Mr, Patterson states that there are stilla num- ber of children to be looked after but that they will be cared for ‘in the near future. Will Build Sawmill. W. P. Niebuhr, one of the Barnesville Lumber company, which operated camps betweaen Funkley and Kelliher during the past winter, was in the city this morning and left this afternoon for Barnesville, where he will spend a few days with friends and relatives.

PROBABILITY THAT TERM WILL BE A SHORT ONE. ]Grafid Jury Sworn In—Little Business Will Be Done Un- = til Tomorrow. The spring term of district court for Beltrami county was opened at the court house in Be- midji this morning with 58 eivil and 14 criminal cases on the cal- endar, by Deputy Sheriff John Bailey. The roll of the grand jury was called and all the members was found to be present. . They were afterwards aworn in by Judge McClenahan, who is now in charge. After the members had been sworn in, the grand jury re- tired to its rooms, where John Graham was elected foreman. Fred Wilson of Tenstrike was ap pointed deputy in charge. The court then took up the call of the calendar, and a num- ber of cases which have been set- tled out-of court were stricken from the calendar, which was considerably cut down. This in- dicates that the term will bea short one unless the grand jury brings in a large batch of indict- ments, which is not expected to happen. ROYALLY ENTERTAIN Church Benefit Given at Ten- strike Last Night a Grand Success. The entertainment given last night by the Episcopal church at Tenstrike was largely attended and is considered one of the most successful affairs ever given in that city.

Judge Pendergast’s address on “The Charge of the First Minnesota at Gettysburg” was one of . the features of the evening and the speaker received great applause. P. J. Russell’s address on “The Russo-Japanese War” was also appreciated. The Bemidji con- tingent present was treated with the utmost courtesy and atten- tion, and the occasion will long be remembered by them.

Coughs All Night, But Quickly Cured by Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy. ‘A few mornings ago Mr. J. G. Smithérman, a good citizen of this place, came to the store for medicine,”” says Dr. Parnell, of Maplesville, Ala. “He was so hoarse that he could hardly talk and said that he had coughed all the night before. I sold him a bottle of Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy and told him that if it 1id not relieve him he might bring the bottle back and get his money. I saw him the next morning carrying the bottle to the store where he works, and he told - me it done him more good than any medicine he ever used.”” For sale by Barker’s Drug Store.
