T0 BEMIDJI “Ten Prominent People of Grand Forks Buy Summer Resort Site. LOCATED ON NORTHEAST SHORE OF LAKE BEMIDJI. Will Commence Erection of a Number of Summer Cottages in Near Future. One of the best deals for Be- midji that was ever negotiated was closed yesterday, when 10 prominent men of Grand Forks, N. D., bought a summer resort * site including 50 acres of land located on the northeast shore of - Lake Bemidji, between the town- site of North Bemidji, owned by J.J. Opsahl, and the summer resort Pine Beach. The names of the buyers, who areall Grand Forks men, are D. W. Luke, O. J. Barnes, W, H. Nigham, Sydney Clark, Mrs. Sarah Williams, T. B. Holmes, N. G. Benner, George E. Duis, C. P. Tripanier and L. H. Carter. It will be seen that the above list includes some of the most prominent business men 1n Grand Forks, including the mayor of that city. It is intended to start the erection of several cottages on theland in the near future and the party has already put up a large quantity of ice for use next summer, when they will come to Bemidji and spend the outing season. Mr. Holmes, one of the pariy, was in the city a couple of days ago, before the deal was closed, and viewed the property. He expressed himself as very well pleased and intends to spend every future summer on the shigres of Lake Bemidji. ‘Mayor A. A. Carter of this city .negotiated the sale of the land and naturally feels very elated oyer the success of his work. He made a half dozen trips to Grand Forks before he could get much encouragement, but grad- ually the Grand Forkers became interested, and, having heard of the beauties of Lake Bemidji from the other Grand Forks peo- ple who visit this city every sum- mer they finally were induced to take up Mr. Carter’s proposi- tion, which involved a cash con- sideration of considerable mag- nitude, MAY ORGANIZE K. OF P. LODGE -Local Members Went to “*Blackduck Last Night to Look Situation Over. A committee of the local Knights of Pythias lodge, con- sisting of O, E. Bailey, H. H. Wheelock, Prof. W. B, Stewart and T. J. Miller, went to Black- duck last night to look over the situation in regard to the organi- zation of alodge in that village. The names of about 30 men who signified their willingness to join were secured. The committee, howeyer, is of the opinion that unless a charter membership of more than this number can be secured it would not be wiseto organize thelodge with this num- ber, as it is not probable that it would receiye sufficient support and would finally go the way of many other lodges organized "“with a small membership, It will be attempted toincrease the number of names on the list suffi- ciently and it is probable that the Blackduck people will be suc- cessful in this, as they are in most of the other things they attempt.

The preliminary work of clearing, ex- cavating and cutting piling alone involves considerable and Mr. Eikstadt has -a large force of men at work on the contract at the present time and expects to add to the crew in the near future, when the~excavating be- gins. In order- to successfully carry on this part of the work, one-half of the river will be taken at a time and - a temporary dam constructed in such manner that the water willbe excluded from this portion of the river while the work is proceeding. When this is finished and the cement laid the other half of the river will be treated in like manner. W. (3.
