'CIGAR FACTORY TO THE FRONT Stevens and iewis, Makers of, “M & M,”” Building Up Ejne Business. Bemidji as a wholesale dis- tributing point for fine cigars has been greatly advanced by the coming of John E. Stevens and Berton Lewis, who have es- tablished their factory on the corner of Beltrami avenue and Third street. These gentlemen came to the city but recently and have al- ready built upa prosperous busi- ness. They have moved their families here and intend to stay and make this city their home. Stevens and Lewis are hustlers and -indications point most strongly to their success. Their leading brand is the famous “M. & M.” ten cent cigar, which has been having such a run in Bemidji and other northern Minnesota cities. RAILROAD IS TO MOVE VILLAGE Northern Pacific Will Change the Site of Winnipeg Junction One Mile The Northern Pacific railroad will move the town of Winnipeg Junction one mile from its pres- ent location. This was decided after a meeting held by the rail- road commissioners and the resi- dents of the town. The citizens filed a protest with the state railroad and warehouse commission against the removal of the Northern Pacific depot at that place. The railroad intended to move its depot one mile from its pres- ent location on account of its present grade. The commission held a meeting with the railroad officials and the company decided to settle the whole matter by moving the town with the depot. The town has about 40 build- ings in it and 250 inhabitants. The railroad will give the present property holders lots on the new location for the ones they now hold.

NEGRO HOLDS UP WEARY WILLIES|*% Gets Nothing as Bums “Don’t Carry No Ready Cash; All in- Drafts.” Crookston,. Minn., -May 23.— ‘“Say, cuzy, me and me pard was bearing down de wind out dere near de yards about half an kour ago wen along comes a coon with a gun and went thru us. He ’ad abum lamp, wore a stiff cady and a fried shirt.” It was in this mode that Weary Willie McGinnis accompanied by an individual as wayworn and weary as himself, if not more so, drifted into the Carman police headquarters and told of a hold- up by a colored trawp seme where in the neighborhood of the Carman yards late last night. “We was takin’ a dveam in one of debox cars on de siding wen along comes the coon and shoves a gun into our mugs,”’ explained the Weary Willie while exploit ing the nature of the transaction to the police officers. “Did he get anything! Huh, I guess nit,” said Willie with a broad, self-satisfied smile. “Us guys don't carry no ready cash, its all'in drafts.” The police thought that the gentlemen of leisure were a little wrong but the persistency of them convinced the force that something had been doing. This morning the fact became evident when weighmaster Gorman ot the Carman yards stated that he had been held up by anegronear his position near the scales. From the description of the tramps the negro had only one eye, wore a stiff hat and a starched shirt. - The police were trying to lo- cate the negro this morning but he in all probability got away on one of the night trains. He se- cured no money-from any of the reported holdups and probably will not appear in the city again. FALLING TREE CRUSHES SKULL Itasca County Farmer Meets Death While Clearing On Neighbor’s Claim.
