Former Beltrami ‘Man Is Sparring Partner to Greatg Ex-Champion. Bemidji people will remember Charles Cutler, the heavyweight boxer, who at one time was chief of police at Blackduck, and whe afterwards lived in this city for some time. Cutler, a year ago last winter, held forth at Cass Lake, and he won several very creditable battles, He was defeated by a scrapper known as the “Kerry Kid,” of Superior, through the raw work of an unfair referee, and the lack of condition on the part of Cutler. Many Bemidji sports saw the fight and were very much riled at the manner in which it was conducted. Since that battle Cutler has been taking very good care of himself, and has advanced rapidly along boxing lines. He was re- cently taken up by John L. Sulli- van, the exchampion heavy- weight, who has taken a great liking to him, and who says that he will yet make of him the equal of any man in the country. Cutler is now sparring partner with Sullivan, and the pair are in St. Paul this week, giving ex- hib‘itions at the Star theatre, to- gether with a vaudevillecompany. ~|It.is*hoped that before Cutler departs from this part of the countey he can again be matched against the ‘“Kerry Kid.” Aliterary treat; the lecture by Dr. E.*€.-Clemens this evening.

News from a source that is considered thoroughly reliable by many, has been received in the city to the effect that Joseph Mathews, who as deputy treas- urer of Polk county defaulted to the extent of about $6,000, and who was theught to have died in a London hotel in 1898, is alive and well at the present time, lo- cated in a prosperous city in the United States, says the Crooks- ton Times. It is claimed he has about half of the amount of defalcation saved up, and expects in a com- paratively short time to return to Crookston, reimburse the bondsmen of County Treasurer Beaudry, who settled with Polk county on a basis of 50 per cent, and start life over again. Tke news came as a thunder- bolt out of a clear sky. Mathews disappeared in 1897, while he was acting as deputy treasurer, and was never seen here again. A man was found dead in a London hotel and on his person was found a prescription written by a Crookston pbysician, The authorities here were wired and the identification was thought to be complete, as a photograph taken of the remains strongly resembled the missing man and in addition Mathews’ watch and ring were found upon the dead man together with some papers. ' Now itis thought that Mathews was in London at' the time and changed the clothing with the dead man to confuse the authori- ties. A literary treat; the lecture by Dr. E. C.

CLUB AND FIRE USED (Continued from page 1,column 7) tragedy, although all the Chippe- was excepting his wife, who was not sworn, testified that it was he who struck the blow, and de- cided that the only way to get at the bottom of the affair would be to hold the whole six until further investigation, Crazy Dog, himself, who may have a different story to tell, could not be heard as he speaks only Sioux and there was no in- terpreter at hand to explain the mysteries of that language. The names of sowe of the In- dians read like a confusion of the alphabet.
