WOULD HAVE GROUNDS IN HEART OF CITY. g e EDITOR HAPS Head of Colliers Weekly Is Freed By Jury From Charge of Crim- inal Libel. . Poor Attondance at Games n Past TESTIMONY IN CASE SENSATIONAL Due to Location of Park Cut of Town. Although the base ball season is yet some months distant, local fans are planning on what is to be done to secure and maintain a first class aggregation of semi- professional players for the team this year. It is a fact to be regretted that heretofore base ball in Bemidj: has never been a success, and while several promi. nent business men have been un- ceasing in their efforts to secure a good team, in which they were successful in 1904 and partially so last season, the small attend- ance at games together with other disagreeable features, made the credit side of the base ball ledger look decidedly slim and some of these same business men who took interest in the team and pushed it ahead were forced at the end of the . season to dig down into their jeans and “‘make good” for some of the expenses that had been incurred during the season. As a result, these men are not auxious to take hold of the team the coming season unless there is an assurance that ample sup- portcan be secured. At the present time a plan is being talked of that would probably result in the securing of first clas$ material and an increase in the patronage at games. The scheme is to form a stock company, issue 100 shares at $10 each, making the paid up capital of the company $1,000. It is planned to lease a tract of land 1n the heart of the city, if possi- ble, and use a portion of the money paid in for the purpose of erecting a grand stand and pre- paring the grounds, This werk, it is estimated, could be done for $500, thus leaving a balance: of $500 in the treasury at the be- ginning of the base ball season. With this money in the treas- ury, it is claimed, players could be secured and games scheduled on short notice, and the work of managing the team would be much facilitated. The change of location from the fair grounds, a mile distant from the city, to a place easily accessible to people living in all sections of the city, would result in a much larger attendance at games, and the team would thus be made self supporting provid- ing a good article of base ball were provided.

The complaint was based on an editorial bear- ing of Deuel’s connection with Town Topics. The testimony in the case kas been highly sensa- tional.

Two or three traveling -men who were arrivals in the city last night tell of a laughable incident which happened Wednesday in -a Staples restaurant, The restaurant.. employs a celestial hash mixer and this in- dividual caused a small quantity of occidental excitement when; early in the evening ke retired to his couch, and while wooing Morpheus, soothed his nerves by the use of an American coffin- nail. The burning embers set the bed on fire and for a few minutes it is said there was a co- mingling of smoke, water, fire and unpronouncable -celestial cuss words that would have made a Missouri mule-driver turn green with envy. The kitchen part of the restau- rant was slightly damaged. PLANTAGENET IS POPULAR Summer Resort South of Be- midji:Will Have Many Visi- tors Next Season. A, H.

WORK ON ERECTION TO COM- MENCE AT ONCE. Capacity Will Be 15,000 Brick Daily and Unlimited Market Is Expected. The proposed brick factory, which will manufacture brick by the new sand-lime-brick process, will be erected in Bemidji. This is now certain, according to an interview given the Pioneer last night by a prominent Mankato man who is one of the principal promoters of the project. He said: “The company will be known as the Minnesota Pressed Brick company and will have a capital of $50,000. Up to the present time about $20,000 has been subscribed. This amount is sufficient to cover the cost of purchasing a site, erecting build- ings, ' buying and installing machinery and the other neces- sary expenses incidental to put- ting the plant in readiness to commence operations. “As yet the site has not been selected, bnt we have three or four good locations in sight and will probably decide in the next two or three days which one will be selected. “Work on the'erection of the plant will commence immediate- ly, or as soon as the site has been purchased, so that the factory will be ready for the spring trade. The output of the factory will be 15,000 brick daily and 12 to 15 men will be employed, ‘Articles of incorporation of the company will be prepared in the near future and will be filed as soon as practicable. We ex- pect an excellent run of business from the outset, as the rapid growth of the towns in this section will create almost an un- limited market. We expect very little competition,as there are but three others of the kind now be- ing operated in Minnesota.” . A Musements .... A Big Musical Comedy Coming.
