MEN'S SUPPER BIG SUCCESS Excellent Meal Was Served Under Auspices of Pres- byterian Church. It may be that a supper can be better than the Presbyterian supper given by the men at Masonic hall last night. But we doubt it. It might be possible o handle a big crowd better than the men did. But we've never seen it done, The men were there for work—30 of them. The cruwd was there to be fed and it was fed. Everything printed in the menu was served with every order if desired, as well as a few extras. The white capped and aproned waiters took the orders, and the cooks, alsoin white caps, aprons and coats, cooked them at five stoves. It would be hard to find swifter and more capable waiters or more expert ccoks. Those who handled eggs used up near- ly 700. The potato man fried nearly two bushels and there were five gallons escalloped tomatoes used. The “flap jacks’ cook alone turned out upward of 600 cakes, the meat cooks used up four large hams. Each plate was garnished with lettuce, parsley and lemon; the potatoes, escalloped tomatoes, sauer kraut, weinersand apple sauce were served in side dishes. Although the supper was a tremendous success and the men deserve much praise for their good work., Nodoubt they are getting it from those who were seryed by them last night.

The regular monthly meeting of the Bemidji fire department was held in the firemen'’s rooms in the city hall last night and resulted in a decision on the part of the members of the organ- ization to attend the two tourna- ments which will be held this summer at Warren and Cass Lake, respectively. It was a question with the firemen up to the meeting of the city council March 20 whether or not they would have sufficient funds with which to attend either of the tournaments, but at that meet ing of the council the firemen were given the management of the City Opera house, and it is expected that with what money they already have in the treasury together with that which they derive as a result of the city hall management they will be enabled to go both tourneys. Practicing for these events will begin as soon as the ground is sufficiently dry to admit of it, and the de- partment expects to have the best team this year that was ever sent out from the city.

After discussing the sewerage question for some time the engineers agreed upon the plans drawn by Mr. McGalliv- ray, witha few small changes, and they were immediately ac: cepted by the council. One matter which the engineers explained to the council was that the State board of health may re- quire that an aseptic tank be built in connectien with the sewers. This kind of a tank is designed to filter the sewage before it enters the lake, but the engineers presented figures last night to show that the amount of filth entering the lake from the sewer system daily will be but one-fourth of one per cent of the amount of water in the lake and expressed the opinion that require the instzllation of the tank, A meeting of the state health board will be held in St. Paul on April 10, when a committee of the city council will be in atten- dance and explain the matter to the board.
