| FAINTS WHILE MAKING SPEECH German Chancellor Conclusion of Speech on Mor- rocan Question. EMPEROR WILLIAM HURRIES TO SCENE Berlin, April 5.—Chancellor Von Bulow fainted in the reich- stag this afternoon at the conclu- sion of a half hour’s speech on the Morrocan question. At first it was feared that he had been stricken with paralysis and the sitting was adjourned. The chancellor was carried to a com- mittee room and physicians sum- moned. Simple stimulents were used and the patient was soon able to speak and move his limbs. Emperor William hurried to the scene but the cancellor had fallen asleep and could not be seen. TO ESTABLISH NAYY OFFICE Yoeman J. A. Shaw Arrives From Brainerd to Open Up Station. A naval recruiting station is to be established in Bemidji in the near future and Yoeman J. A. Shaw, who has had charge of the Brainerd office, which was re- cently closed, arrived last night to take charge of the new station. Mr. Shaw has secured a very desirable location on the second floor of one of the new brick blocks on Third street and is now awaiting authority from the department to lease the rooms. This makes three recruiting offices for Bemidji, the naval station having no connection whatever with the marine office.

The body was badly mutilated, both legs being severed, one above the knee and the other near the foot. The section crew immediately sent word to Coro- ner Marcum, who made an ex- RUN OVER| ARE ERECTING COUNCIL HALL Prominent People Preparing for Outing on Island in Turtle Lake. Rev. Johnson, rector of Gesse- many Episcopal church in Min- neapolis, and W. G. King, gen- eral manager of the Swifi Pack- ing company, who control the north island in Big Turtle lake, are having erected on the island a council hall 28x42, the building being constructed of logs. Work on the building has already started and will be completed in a short time. Fifteen families from Minneapolis, Chicago, Omaha and other cities will spend the coming outing season on the island and a number of cottages will be built. Lecture Tomorrow Evening. Prof. Kennedy - of the univer- sity of North Dakota will lecture tomorrow evening to the teach- ers attending- the institute now amination of the body and de- extension to the latter point will be discontinued. The reason for discontinuing the service, which has been a tri- weekly oue, is to allow the M. & I. company to grade and other- wise complete the work on the line between the two towns. It is expected that it will take con- siderable time to put the line in shape and it is probable that it will be several months before the service is resumed. Since last January the M. & I. has run a tri-weekly accommodation train to Ripple. Initiate Class Tonight. The local lodge Modern Samar- itans will initiate a large number of members this evening. Mrs. Lucy Perkins, lady good Samar- itan of Alpha lodge, Duluth, will be present and will have charge of the work. Supper and dancing will follow the initiations, Fancy stationery forinvitations and parties at the Pioneer office cided that the Indian bhad been killed by a train, probably a {freight that went through some !fiime last night. Coroner Marcum ordered the remains taken to Lahr’s morgue, where they now lie and where a further examination will be made. It is probable that the man was a member of the Red Lake tribe and was on his way to either the Cass Lake or the Leech lake reservation when the train overtook him. Nothing was found jon his body that would serve as a proper means of identification and it is probable that it will be necessary to hold the body for several days until some of his friends from the reservation identify them. W. H. Vye of St. Cloud, who has been a guest at the home of Mr.and Mrs. W. A. Gould for some time past, will return home itomorrow morning.

At a conference with Representatives Bede and Buckman, he indicated his will- ingness to relinquish about 47,000 acres lying north, east and south of the village of Cass Lake, Late yesterday Representative Tawney introduced a second bill fixing the boundaries of the re- serve, ab Mr. Pinchot’s request, and also at solicitation of Mrs. Lydia Williams, president of the Minnesota Federationof Women’s Clubs. The bill was submitted by Pinchot, with the memoran- dum stating that it made no change in the boundaries from the bills introduced by Tawney under which 18,000 acres of land south of Cass Lake would be eliminated from the reserve. The most important feature of the new bill is the provision for payment to Indians for land solo by Mr. Symington and selections by the Bemidji quar- tette will be rendered, Mr. Ken- nedy will lecture to the teachers at 3 o’clock tomorrow afternoon at the high school. All those in- terested in education are cordi- ally invited to attend both lec- tures. Jacob Detling of Langor is in the city for a visit at the home of his sister, Mrs. John Graham. " ALL OVER THE HOUSE. Directions For Shrinking New Flannel Before It Is Made Up. New flannel should always be shrunk or washed before it is made up, that it may cut out more ac- curately and that the grease which is used in manufacturing it may be extracted. “First cut off the list along the salvage edges of the whole picce. Then put it into warm (not boiling) water, without soap. Begin at one both hands till the other end is reached. This is. to. get out the grease and the blue with which new white flannel is always tinged. Then do the same through another water. Rinse it through a clean, lukewarm water, wring it lengthwise and stretch it well. In hanging it out on a line do not suspend it in festoons, but spread it along the line straight and length- wise. If dried in festoons the edges will be in great scallops, making it very difficult to cut out. It must be dried in the sun. When dry let it be stretched even, clapped with the hands and rolled up tightly and smoothly till, wanted. Garnish For Steaks. Slice firm, mild flavored onions a quarter of an inch thick, lay the slices for three hours in weak salt water, rinse dry and drop in hand- fuls into deep fat, boiling hot, says Good Housckeeping. Watch them closely and skim out the minute they are browned and crisp. Drain on blotting paper, and either pile in a hot dish or use as a garnish. Po- tatoes cut lengthwise into straws, soaked and fried. with the onions, help to make them among the best garnishes for a well broiled steak or, good roast. Removing Finger Rings. When from any cause there is dif- ficulty in slipping a ring over the finger joint pass the end of a piece of fine twine under the ring, pull an inch or so of the twine toward ihe hand and wind the rest of it around the finger upward nearly to the nail. Take hold of the end nearest the hand and unwind it gradually, when the ring will slide slowly off. If the.experiment does not succeed the first time it should be tried again with a longer piece of string. Toasted Bread and Bacon. First cut the bacon thin, then cut as many slices of bread as there are pieces of bacon, leaving the bread nearly an inch larger all around than each slice of bacon. Trim off the hard crusts. Set the bread in a dripping pan, lay a slice of bacon upon each piece of bread and set in a hot oven, where it will cook in from two to six minutes. As soon as the bacon is well crisped transfer each slice to a hot plate. To Clean Burned Dishes. & Baking dishes that become burned in the oven and plates and platters that become blackened with the food scorched upon them should not go through the tedious process of scrap- ing. Simply put a little water and ashes in the dish and let it become taken for the reserve, Pinchot having included that because, he said, in justice to Indians they should be paid for land taken from them for this purpose, Tawney is not fathering the bill, but says it will afford basis for discussion, which he hopes will result in some agreement be- ing reached between friends and opponents of permanent reserve, Police Court. Six were up in Judge Skinvik’s court this morning on petty charges. Small fines were im- posed upon John Scott and Henry Knowll, plain drunks, and Alfred Peterson was committed to the county jail for 10 days after pleading guilty to a charge of drunken and disorderly conduct. Sentences imposed upon Wm. O’Connell, Martin Lennon and James Lyon were suspended. Issued Marriage License. A marriage license was issued today at the officeof Clerk of Court Rhoda to P. A, Skrief and Margaret S. Weber. After their marriage the couple will make their home on Mr. Skrief’s farm north of Kelliher.
