RITCHIE IS RETAINED Present Superintendent of City Schools Will Serve Another Year. BOARD TOOK ACTION AT MEET- ING LAST NIGHT. Schools Being Conducted iu Ex- cellent Manner Under Direc- tion of Mr. Ritchie. At a meeting of the sehool board of Independent School Dis- trict of Bemidji last night, A. P, Ritchie, the present saperinten- dent, was decided upon as the| superintendent for next year. The resolution by which Mr. Ritchie was retained for another year was adonted unanimously by the board and no other name was mentioned for the position. That the retention of Mr. Ritchie as superintendent of the public schools will undoubtedly TITLE OF THE | ISLE OF PINES 'Should Rest With United States, Says Committee’s Minority Report. Washington, Feb, 14.—The \senate, in executive session yes- | terday, made public the majority and minority reports from the leommittee on foreign ‘relations on the treaty ceding Cuba the title of the Isle of Pines. The majority report has already been published. The minority re- port, which is signed by Sena- t)rs Morgan and W. A. Clark, upholds the contentions of Americans who have invested on the 1sland, that they were war- ranted in doing so by the lan- guage of the Platt amendment and the Cuban coastitution, as well as early announcements made by Assistant Secretary of War Meklejohn, that the title was investod in the United States by the treaty of Paris. The minority reports that if the island is turned over to Cuba 1t will be unsafe to leave Ameri- meet with the hearty approval of nearly every resident of the city is the belief of the members of the board. Since taking charge of the schools two years ago Mr. Ritchie has made an excellent record as a superintendent and kas shown much ability asan educator. The board at its meeting last night also accepted a report from I the committee on purchasing| wood appointed at the last meet- ing. The committee reported having purchased 150 cords of green cut jack pine wood at $1.95: per cord, delivered, It is thought that this amount, together with | what wood the board has already ; on hand will last until the closin,r;;i of schools. j | public schools, cans there, for if they were maltreated, this government would be compelled to protect them. It is stated that from the hour this government again sent soldiers to Cuba, the destiny of that republic would be that of Ireland or Egypt, and the repub- lic would disappear.

AN IMPORTANT SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY. Likely to Revolutionize Pharmacy. A HAPPY COMBINATION Of just the right proportion of each of the roots of several iudigenous, or native, medicinal plants, or rather of the active, medicinal principles skillfully extracted 1herefrom by the use of chemically pure &lycerine of just the right strey , con- stitutes Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescrip- tion for the cure of weak, invalid, nerv- ous, “run-down,” over-worked women. Many years ago, Dr. Pierce discovered that chemically pure glycerine, of proper | strength, is a far better solvent and pre- | servative of the medicinal principles | found in our indigenous, or native, medi- [ einal plants, than is aleohol. Believing, | as he does, that the use of alcohol, even | in small portions, if long continued, | works great harm to the human system, | he determined not to employ this com- monly used agent in making his medi- cines, but to us oure, triple - refined glycerine instead.

THEY STAND ALONE in having the professional endorsement of scoresof eminent medical practitioners and writers, of all the several schools of medical practice, who praise the curative properties of the several ingredients of which they are composed, away be- vond all that the malers of these medi- cines have ever claimed for them, These are the more valuable because in evi case written without the author know: ing that he was praising articles entering into these popular:medicines, the master journals and books designed for professional reading and : The afflicted can, therefore, instruction. rely npon such testimony .as .in every way truthful and trustworthy.

Morrison, who was in Bemidji last Sunday, was cailed to che denial of Dr. Craft, of St. Paul, in a dispatch that the signatures of the: Chippewa Indians to the petition in favor of the foresty reserye were forgeries. He stated that there was no possible ground for doubt that the signa- tures were forgeries, and that he 1s prepared to shed much further light on the subject. If the petition was not forged the person that secured the sixty signatures must have traveled 1,000 miles in one day to accom- plish the work, in addition to the time of interviewing that many signers. The bishop is pre- pared to substantiate his state- ments in regard to the irregular proceedings. | On the same subjectthe follow- ing dispatch was received from Cass Lake: “The statcment in this morn- ing’s paper, issued by Dr. Leo M. Crafts, of Minneapolis, and officers of the committees of the commercial clubs of the twin cities, that the notorious Indian petition was not forged, has ‘| American war, are to hold a re- created much comment here, where hundreds of people have positive knowledge that it was a piece of rank forgery.

Pierce yesterday afternoon narrowly escaped death as a result of being poisoned by eating candy and had it not been for the timeiy arrival of a physician she would undoubtedly haye died. Mr. Pierce, upon reaching his| home at the noon hour, brought; with him a quantity of chocolate creams which he had purchased for his wife at a down town store. He returned up town after taking dinner and left Mrs. Pierce alone. In the afternoon the latter par- took of some of the candy but in a short time began to feel ill and in a remarkably brief period her [face had swollen to twice its ‘normal size. She called in a was lying on the floor of her residence unconscious as a re- sult of the pains with which she was suffering. ; The physician, after a few minutes’ quick work, succeeded : in causing Mrs. Pierce to throw up the poison and sbe soon re- covered consciousness. She re- covered rapidly from the effects of the experience and except for a slight weakness is entirely well today. The physician who attended ber states that had he arrived five minutes later Mrs. Pierce would undoubtedly have been dead. The name of the poison contained in the zandy is un- known.
