WEALTHY Said That the Northern Pa- cific Will Build to Be- midji From Detroit. SUPPLIES SHIPPED FRIDAY. Work on Road to Begin at Once and Road to Be Complete This Fall. There are rumors in railway circles that the Northern Pacific is to build from Detroit to this city and the Grand Forks Herald prints the following story From an authoritative source it has been learned that the Northern Pacific has definitely decided to build from Detroit on its main line to Bemidji, a dis- tance of about 60 miles. The new line will cross the White Barth [ndian r ation and open a fertile country whose inhabitants have been clamorivg for better railroad facihties for years. A full engineering equipment consisting of provisions, camp- ing outfit, and all necessary sup- plies was shipped from Minne apolis F'riday, and it stood the engineers will com mence the work of running the line some time this wecl. s under The new line v xtend ina northeasterly di m to Be- midji. Detroit, from which the new! branch will start, is on the Northern Pacitic and the Winni- peg line of the Soo and is con- sidered an important point by railroad men, Nels Bruggeman, a civil en- gineer of Wiunipeg, who is thoroughly posted on the rail road situation in that part of the state through his connection with other lines s the new line is of the I st important- ance to people living in that sec- ion of the state. “The N. P. is first on the ground,” he said “and I under- strnd there will be no delay in rushing the line to completion.” OIL FIELDS A-FIRE MANY PERISHING Rumor Places Loss of Life as High as 50—FIleeing For Their Lives.

Results of the Logging Oper- Lines Red Man’s Purse. There was deposited in the United States treasury to the {credit of the Chippewa Indians "of Minnesota this spring, $1,026,- | 80, being the amount paid in by the different lumber compan- 1ies for logs cut on the ceded In- dian lands during the past win- jter. There is still a vast amount |of timber in the ceded Indian lands amounting to about 1, 000,- 000,000 feet or more. At the present prices of lumber this yast amount of timber, would net the Indians about $10,000,000 probably more. This timber together with the jamount that the Indians will }renliwe from the sale of their lands will easily swell their credit to $12,000,000 or $14,000,- 000 This is certainly a snug jsum of money aund if divided per | capita among the present mem- bers, or Indians - interested, would amount to about $1000 to $1200 or more apiece that is, every man, woman and child. This sum, together with a land allowment of 160 acres of fertile and, is indeed we and wil a princely heri | s the Chippewas of Minnesota as the wealthiest | community in the state. | 'LUMBER PRICES ARE BOOSTED [Supply Short and Al Im- portant Items in the List Advanced. According to Minneapolis ad- other notch. There is a general adyance on all dimension lumber of $1 a thoasand. Common boards aboye the grade No. 4 are raised 50 cents, No. 1 fencing $1 and other fencing 50 cents. Fin ish and shop lumber of all dimen- | sions are advanced from $1 to 2 |in the lower grades and the | higher grades are practically out‘y of the market. The advance is partly due to the river conditions, which have | prevented a good share of the | mills from sawing for last month | i but there are larger reasons also‘ given by the lumbermen, The building boom which has been| noted in the northwest is also| evident in the south, and yellow | pine,which is the principal com- | petitor of the northern mills, has | The de- mand is greater than the supply, which is claimed to be 100,000,000 feet less than last year.

Tk DIDN'T GET A LOOK IN Bemidji Defeated at Hibbing Yesterday by Score of 9 to 0. BIG CROWD TOOK ADVANTAGE OF EXCURSION. LargeNumber of Rooters Accom- panied Ball Team But Were Disappointed. Nine to nothing—that’s what Hibbing got yesterday when it defeated Bemidji in a game that for fast playing was rarely equalled in this section of the state. The game was called at about 3 o’clock. Four innings were played without resulting in either team securing a score. The tifth inning, however, was fatal to the Bemidji bunch when LeGore made a bad throw over “Reddy” Riddell on first base, allowing a run. From this inn- ing there was ‘“nothing to it.” Every Hibbing man that came to bat was good for a hit and Le- Gore was taken from the box and substituted by ‘“Red” Hazen. Hazen pitched good ball and ended the agony in the ninth inning with the Hibbing bunch nine cores ahead and rejoicing ina shut out game. The excursion train left Be midji yesterday morning at about 7:30 o’clock with approximately 300 on board. The train was de layed several times, however,and did not reach Hibbing until noon. The day, which early in the morning bid fair to be ideal for base ball,turned out to be wetand cold and many people wore over- coats. A drizzly rain set in short- ly after noon and continued dur- ing the entire day. The Hibbing grounds are fast, however, and the rain did not interfere with the players to any noticeable ex tent. When the game was called both the grand stand and bleachers were packed with people and the rooting during the game was territic. Every play was watched eagerly and the crowd was kept up toa high key of ex- citement until after the Hibbing team had the game ‘“cinched.”’ Betting on the game was lively, the odds being in favor of Hib- bing. A large numbper of people who took in the excursion went out to the big mines in the vicinity of Hibbing. The Burk-Poole mine, which is located just outside the city limits, is one of the largest open pit mines in the world and hundreds of people visited the mine during the day. The Bemidji crowd were treat- ed royally by the people of Hib- | bing, who will run a return ex- cursion to'this city on Aug. 20, when another game will be played between the two teams. EXCURSION NOTES. John Armstrong was there. The band did excellent work, | vices, lumber has gone up an- ,consxdenng that the organization has been formed only recently, Harry Calvert was also there. Taylor made two-baggers. Jack McAvoy took in the sights at Hibbing. Emil Schneider boosted for Bemidji at the ball game. Armstrong’s badges were con- spicuous on all members of the Bemidji contingent. WILLIAM AND THE CZAR MEET Said German Sovereign Ad- vises Czar to Grant Re- forms at Home. Berlin, July 24—The Emperior William and the Czar met today off the coast of Sweden at the request of the Russian ruler. It is said here that the German sovereign went prepared to ad- vise the Czar to negotiate peace and to end discontent at home by granting the reforms de- manded. E. M.

Be’rh-a'!n, three farm- ers who reside on the Mississippi river south of Bemidji, were Sat- urday arrested charged with having destroyed bark marks on logs belonging to 'the Shevlin- Carpenter company of Minne- apolis. - It is claimed that the three men mutilated the marks upon thee Sbbvlin-Carpenter company logs to such an extent that they were unrecognizable and that as a result the company could not claim the logs as its own.

DOG AND PONY SHOW IN TOWN Marvelous Tricks Performed by Trained Dogs, Ponies and Monkeps. Seibel’s dog and pony show is in the city today, and gave a fine street parade at noon and an ex. cellent exhibition this afternoon and will give the usual evening performance. Those adults who are fortunate enough to have children to take to the show were allon hand and apparently en- joyed the exhibition as much as the children. The attra:tion carries 100 thoroughbred ponies, some of them of most diminuitive size, 75 wonderful dogs and 25 performing monkeys. The even- ing performance will begin at 8 o'clock and will be an exact re- production of the afternoon ex- hibition with some interesting features added. \ ! DON'T TAKE OUT YOUR DOG New Game Law Forbids Training Hunting. Dogs During Month. Local sportsmen who have habitually ‘‘trained” their dogs during the month of August just prior to the opening of the legal hunting season will do well to peruse the provisions of the game law passed at the last ses- sion of the legislature. Section 28 of the amended game and fish law prohibits the use or training of hunting dogs during the month of August and declares that dogs allowed to run at large in fields during the month shall be considered public nuisances and may be killed by any person. Their owners are also subject to arrest for a viola- tion of the game laws. In the past when a game warden came across an offender in the fields before the opening of the season theexcuse offered was that he was “simply traming my dogs.” The time-worn excuse will not go any longer. Nymore Won. The Bemidji second team and the Nymore regulars yesterday played a base ball game on the local diamond and the Nymore bunch was successful in winning by a score of 11 to 5. “YOUR MONEY I{ NG GOOD” : ind will be refunded to you if after uy ng half a bottle of THE FAMOUS ' SM an BLOOD CURE You are not satisfied with results, wery bottle.
