TOURNAMENT IS INDIANS NEXT TO BE HUMMER| TO PLAY LOCALS Cass Lake Plans Royal Welcome for the Visiting Firemen. Word comes from Cass Lake that the arrangements for the forthcoming firemen’s tourna- ment are completed, with the ex- ception of some minor details, and the people there only await the arrival of the dates (June 20- 28) to uncork a brand of hos- pitable entertainment that will eclipse any thing of the kind yet given in the north half of the state. Bemidji day (June 21st) will undoubtediy draw a large crowd from here. A contract was signed today whereby the ser- vices of the Bemidji band were secured for that day, and ar- rangements are being made for the ball game to be played be- tween Cass Lake and Bemidji. A. G, Rutledge, secretary of the association, has compiled the records of the various tourna- ments which have been held, showing the best time madein every event, and the figures are interesting. The Bemidji run- ning team has made a very good showing, in fact the best of any other department that has parti- cipated. The boys won the championship banmer hose race three years in succession, 1901- 02-03, and new have in their pos- session a bandsome ‘“rag” indi- cative of their feats of prowess. They won the hook and ladder and hose race four times and hook and ladder service test twice. The hub-and-hub race went to Bemidji twice, and it was only in the wet test that they were unfortunate. W. English of Bemidji, was first in coupling twice. The Bemidji department prob- ably has the distinction of hold- ing the world’s record in the ladder climbing. At Park Rapids, in 1903, Albert Halvor- son made the remarkable time of 71-5 seconds. Tom English, also of Bemidji, covered the climhin 72-5 secondsand isa clese second and R. H. Schu- maker of Bemidji holds jointly with Dilloway of Eveleth the record for the 100-yard firemen’s foot race, they having ran the aprint in 10 1-5 seconds, which beat the time of the re nowned Maybury 1-5 of a second This is the first year the local fire laddies have been in the old association since the splitat Park Rapids. Since that time Ray Dennis has been doing the coup- ling for the department, and he has made some remarkable time. He will be at Cass Lake this year, and it is believed that, bar- ring accidents, he will equal, if not excell, the world’s record in that event. There are nine department members of the association, and some very fast sprinters will participate in the meet at Cass Lake, but it is believed that Be- midji will hold her ewn and re- turn with a fair proportion of the prize money. WOMAN INJURED AT TELEPHONE Mrs. McCauley Burned Dauring Storm Yesterday—Many 'Phones Knocked Out. The electric storm of yester- day afternoon resulted in the in- jury of at least one person. Mrs. N. McCauley is the victim and was injured while using the tele- phone at her home on Dewey avenue. The sharp flash of lightning late in the afternoon caused a bolt of the “fluid” to shoot along the wire and Mrs. McCauley was severely burned on the left arm .and hand with which she was holding the telephone receiver. The storm did considerable damage to telephones all over the city and a large number are out of order today. - Referred to Sub-Committee. Washington, June 7.—The house committee on judiciary, by a vote of 10 to 7, referred all of the seven anti injunction bills to a special sub-com- mittee with instructions to report to the full committee next December. Team From White Earth Reser- vation Comes to Bemid]i Next Sunday. ‘The White Earth Indians will play a game here on Sunday with the locals, This team always puts up a good article of ball, and it is believed an interesting game will result. It was expected that the new grounds would be ready for use next Sunday, but indications now are that the game on Sunday will be played on the old grounds. The down-town park will be in good condition, however, a week from Sunday. It is expected that the Crooks- ton team will play here on Sun- day, June 17. Ben Holstein, the Indian catcher for the locals, was loaned to the Grand Forks team of the Northern league for a few games this week. Ben played his first game on Tuesday, and he showed the folks over west just what real ball is. He caught the game for the Forks against Hancock. The North Dakotans got but one score and one hit. Holstein made the only hit, besides having five put-outs, two assists and one error to his credit, Ben will be here for Sunday’s game. Farley LeGore is playing right field for the Hancock team of the Northern league. He has been hitting the ball at a .300 clip and fielding his position nicely. Summers, the shortstop who went to Duluth, made good there, but announces that he will be back to play with the locals on June 15. Evidently, there is sowmething wrong with that jug- handled league, as players are quitting and |ceing transferred with a regularity that is surpris- ing. However, it is noticeable that any of the Bemidji boys who have played with the league have made good from the start. Lee LeGore has received an offer from the management of the Blackduck team, LOGS CRUSH OUT WORKMAN’S LIFE “Tripper” at East Grand Forks Mill Meets a Horrible Death. Crookston, June 7.—Chas. Roberts while unloading logs in East Grand Forks for the Grand Forks Lumber company was crushed to death at 1 o’clock yesterday afternoon. He had been engaged as the “tripper” man and it was his duty to trip the chains that bind the logs on the cars, three chain3 on each end of a car and it is the work of the trip man to loosen vhese chains. Inloosening the binding chains on the cars a small chain tripped or loosened two of of the binder chains on the car, and when his trip chain becoming caught on the binder chain he stepped be- tween the car of logs and the river, intending toloosen the trip chain when the third binding chain on the car broke and the logs fell upon him, killing him instantly.

Plans have been made for an exhaustive and accurate census of Bemidji and work on the get- ting of names will probably be- gin within a day or two. The idea is to establish the popula- tion mark at between 5,000 and 6,000. Certain men who have the interest of the city at heart have believed for a long time that the population has increased so rapidly within the last two years that the state census does not do Bemidji justice and that the 1906 tigures should be ascertained and published broadcast, and it was with this end in view, to a large extent, that the present plans were formed. : The committee having the census 1 charge comprises, Judge M. A. Spooner, M. E. Thurston, Sheriff Thomas Bailey, and Mayor A. A. Carter, and their names alone will be a guarantee that the work will be conscientiously done. It is intended to put four .enumerators in the field, one in each ward, and the work will probably be completed in a week’s time.

Chicago, June 7.—Building Commis- sloner Bartzen and twelve deputy building inspectors went to the stock vards during the day to make an in- spection of every building in the place. The commissioner declared before leaving the city hall that he would compel the packers to correct every violation of the building ordinances that might be found. Building Commissioner Bartzen per- sonally went to the hog killing depart- ment of a large packinghouse and de- scribed the conditions he found there es “filthy and dirty.” He character- Ized the room as a “dirty hole, unfit for the use to which it is-put.” In the portion of the plant where cattle are killed and dressed the walls were cov- ered with calcimine scarcely dry. He said there is not a modern building in the entire district devoted to the pack- ing industry. The majority of them, he declared, “are dillapidated, filthy and unfit for such use as is made of them.” He directed that the inspection should be of the most thorough char- acter and the work will not be com- pleted inside of four or five days.
