'SWIMMER DROWNED Son in Waters of Clear- water River. CIRCUMSTANCES INDICATE ACCI- DENTAL DEATH. County Coroner Marcum Notified and heft this Morning to-Make Investigatien. The dead body of the son of Mr. and Mrs. Martin Thompson, homesteaders who live on the Clearwater river near Buzzle dam, was found . in the river yes- terday afternoon by the father of of the young man a short distance from their home, Young Thompsou left home saying to his parents that he was going swimming. He remained away for several hours and the pa‘ents became uneasy. The father went tosearch for the young man and found his remains in the river a short distance from the dam, The circumstan- ces surrounding the drowning indicate that it was purely acci- dental, County Coroner Marcum was notified this morning and left im- mediately for the scene of the ac- cident to make an investigation. MALMQUIST WILL FIGHT Asked That the Injunction Against Him Be Dissolved —Law Suits Threatened John Malmquist, the Turtle River township homesteader against whom a temporary in- junction restraining him from blowing up the dam of Blakely & Farley near Pemush lake was recently granted by order of Judge Spooner, today filed an answer through his attorney, Hém'y Funkley, whichasks that the injunction be dissolved and also alleges that he had never harbored any intention of blow- ing up the dam. He also claims damages for the costs of fighting the injunction. Blakely & Farley admitin their application for an injunction restraining Malmquist from blowing up the dam that the structure was built in 1901 and that it has been maintained ever since for the purpose of driving logs down the east fork of the Turtle river. Itis claimed by some half dozen homesteaders who own land abutting the river that their lands’ have been overflowed as a result of a raise in the river of four feet above the high water mark and considerable damage has occured. Itisvery probable that a number of flowage cases will be instituted against Blakely & Farley to collect damages for the losses claimed to have been sustained by the farmers. Repairing Church. The Norwegian Lutheran church building at the corner of Eighth street and. Minnesota avenue is being remodeled and repaired. The structure will be raised two feet and a new found- ation will be placed under it. An addition 16x16 feet is to be built at the rear, considerably increas- ing the size of the building. Thos. Johnson has taken a contract for the work. GRADUATION | EXERCISES| Father Finds Dead Body of Third Annual ment of Bemidji High Schools This Evening SIX STUDENTS WILL GRADUATE FROM BEMIDJI SCHOOLS.

Bemidji Team Easily Defeats Crookston Aggregativn in Game Yesterday. In what looked like a shut out game of ball upto the seventh inning, the local team yesterday afbernoon\ defeated Crookston by a score of 4 to 3. The game was interesting from start to finish, but it was evident from the first inning that the Bemidji team was superior to the Crookston bunch and everybody expected a shut out. In the seventh inning, how- ever, several bad errors made at critical moments let in two runs, and in the eighth the visitors again scored a run on errors. The locals succeeded in getting two men across the plate in the third inning -and three hits bunched in the fifth netted them two earned runs, making a total of four. LeGore pitched excel- lent ball, especially in the second inning, when with three men’on bases he struc+ out twoin succes- sion and the third went out ona little pop up to second. Dunn, the Crookston twirler, allowed six hits, while the visitors sue- ceeded in connecting with Le- Gore’s curves only four mmes. The score: i 0202000 x—4 H 6 000021 0 4 -t Adopt a Child.

Thatan enormous water power can ke deyeloped in the Missis- sippi riyer east of Lake Bemidji was shown yesterday, when County Surveyor M, D. Stoner made calculations from measure- ments taken which satisfied him that over 8,000 horse power could be secured with a 27 foot head of water. Mr. Stoner took the velocity of the water, the volume of the river per minute and the head which could be obtained by plac- ing a dam across the river at'a point four miles east of Bemidji lake. He found the velocity of the stream to be 200 feet in 54 sec- onds, and the volume per minute to be about 65,000 cubic feet. The head that it was found could be obtained if a dam were placed across the river four miles east of the lake is 27 feet, thus mak- ing the horse power 8,290. It is stated on good authority that Mr. Stoner made the survey of the river at the request of Minneapolis capitalists who have it in mind to erect a pulp mill in Bemidji. who first proposed the erection of a mill in this city have evi- dently given up the -idea, as it was given out by them last win- ter that work on the construc- tion of the mill would commence has been done toward putting 1n the dam which was authorized to be built in a bill which passed congress at the last session. Deafness Cannot Be Cured by local applications, as they can- not reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deaf- ness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube, When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound —or imperfect hearing, and when itis entirely closed, deafness is the resuls, and unless the inflamation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of tenare caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucu- ous surfaces. 3 We will give one hundred dol- lars for any case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure.

ANGLERS TREATED TO0 A DAY OF SPORT. None Were Unsuecessful and a Number of Monster Speci- mens Were Captured. Lake Bemidji yesterday gave from her depths perhaps the largest number of fish that has been taken from her waters in the fishing season, and as a re- sult everybody who tried his or her fortune came back satisfied in abundance a variety of fish, any one day since the opening of | both large and small, that could be surpassed at no other point in Minnesota. The day was ideal for fishing, and long before the sun showed itself above the hori- zon the boatmen of the city were busy preparing boats, bait and tackle, and hundreds of anglers were stationed at the favorite fishing grounds of the lake. Some were satisfied with a few hours’ enjoyment, while others remained during the entire day. Everybody caught fish, and every returning boat brought in its load of finny specimens. Judge Clark, an angler of some repute, went out early in the morning and came home with a large string of bass after a couple hours’ fishing. Marcus | Stephens and Chas. Handy, membefs of the Crooks- ton base ball team, went out for a short while after the game and came back with 50 pike and perch. Carl Wetterstrom - of Detroit made a catch of about 20 pike and perch in a half hour, and two with the day’s sport and con-|pr three of the fish tipped the vinced that there still remained |scales at five pounds.
