HEAD OF CLUB Made President of Business Men’s Organization at Har- monious Meeting Last Night. MEMBERSHIP SWELLED BY ADDITION OF 17 NAMES Plans Laid for Celebration of *‘Glorious” Though Modest “Fourth.” At one of the best-spirited and most harmonious meetings ever held in the city, the Business Men’s club last night elected C. H. Miles as its president. The club first selected eleven direct- ors and the directors picked the officers. Mr. Miles received the highest number of votes for di- rector, and was the unanimous choice of the eleven as the leader of the new organization, which, it is planned, shall do much for the building up of Bemidji. The other officers elected are: E. A. Schneider, vice president; George Markham, secrefary; and G. E. Carson, treasurer. The meeting was the outcome of the mass meeting held in the city hall Wednesday and the in- terest heing taken in the new club was manifested in the turn- out, every seat in the council room being taken and many being compelled to stand. Much was accomplished; seventeen new members were taken into the club, reports were made, and the contemplated Fourth of July celebration was discussed at length. The meeting was called to order by the presideat of the old club,” William Bowser, and the treasurer, G. E. Carson, read his report on financies. . His books show the organization to be in good shape with a baok balance of $267.48. When' the money taken in last night from new membershiv fees is added the total reaches $360.90. The election of the eleven directors followed. Each member voted for eleven men and the eleven highest were declared elected. The result was as follows: C, H, Miles 29, E, A, ‘Schaeider 28, William Bowser 26, G. E. Carson 22, C. M. Bacon 22, George Markam 21, A. A. Carter 19, G. M. Torrence 18, E. H. Winter 18, W. G. Schroeder 17, Fred Brinkman 16, J. A. Luding- ton and Mr. Brinkman were tied and after a lengthy Alphonseand Gaston stunt, they drew cuts, the hotel an winning. At the meeting of the directors which followed officers were elected and a question of having a celebration on the Fourth was discussed pro and con. Some of the members thought that since the circus comes to town on June 28 it would hardly pay to try to get the crowds in again in so short a time, but the celebration sentiment prevailed. A committee to have the cele- bration in charge was appointed by the president and was author- ized to collect prizes or money amounting to $175. It was figured that this sum would be sufficient to make a ‘Glorious Fourth” in a modest way. The committee includes, A. A. Carter, George Markham, David Gilland J. A. McAvoy. William Bowser reported that the constitution and by-laws had been lost and it was decided to _ draftnewones, G.M. Torrence, C. W.

Laporte, June 23.—Early yes- terday morning a double-header logging train, southward bound, was wrecked near this city. The train was making good headway and owing to the yvast amount of rain the track bed sprung, the rails spreading, throwing eight cars from the track and tearing up a few rails, A wrecking train was sent and the track cleared shortly before noon, To Lecture Again.

There is a deadly fas- clnation in the thought of twenty or thirty feet of cold water beneath. Last year’s mortality list cuts no ice with us. ‘We must make our own experiments, while Dr. Experience screams himself hoarse from his bonfire on the bank. He has held many an Inquest on this darkling shore of the river of time, and he will undoubtedly live to hold many another, but thus far we have not been the subjects, and when it comes to the mistakes of others we are all delighted to serve on the coroner’s jury. It isn'f well for us to be saved from too many blunders. We nced the discipline of failure. It Is better to fall than never to try, and the man who can contem- plate the graveyard of his own hopes without bitterness will not always be ignored by the gods of success.—Mere- dith Nicholson in Reader. Tree That Gives Light. Among freaks of nature in trees there stands conspicuous one known as the Aslatic star tree. It is enormously tall, growlug to a helght of from sixty feet to eighty feet, while from the ground up to a distauce of about forty feet the trunk is pertectly bare. From that point there spring a number of tangled limbs, which shoot out clusters of long, polnted leaves, and It is these, grouped together, that emit at night a clear, phosphorescent light. This gives the tree a spectral appearance and l¢ very deceiving to travelérs, who fre- quently mistake the glow for an illu- minated window of a house. The light 18 not brilliant, but Is of sufficient strength to ilow of a newspaper be- ing read by it. It does not flicker, but glows steadily from sunset to day- break, wantca 1o Be in aame, A wealthy Parisian, tired of support- Ing his nephew, determined to get him married off and settled. He called upon a matrimonial agent aad looked over his album of candidates for hus- bands. To his horror he found the ple- ture of his own pretty young wife, He reproached her and demanded an explanation. “I do not deny it,” she said, “but it was last year, when, as you know, dearest, you had been given up by ail the doetora.” The Elephant’s Trunk. An elephant’s trunk answers that animal as nose and hand. He also uses it for drinking, drawing up the water through his trunk and then pour- Ing it into his mouth. The elephant has a singular habit when suffering from the heat of poking his nose down his throat into his stomach and with- drawing a quantity of water, which he then squirts over his back and sides to cool his body. As during a warm day this operation is repeated about once in every five minutes riding an ele- phant in the sun Is no pleasant under- taking. Bowser were appointed to do the work, The list of new members added to tiie club roll last night follows: H. P. Burroughs, J. P. Lahr, J, A. McAvoy, J. A. Hoff, Christ Markusen, John Armstrong, Wes Wright, C. W. Higgins, Joe Chisholm, George Markham, Peter Lindeberg, J. Peterson, Jr.” A. A. Carter C. J.

MILES ELECTED - |TRAIN DITCHED INJURED WHILE |WOULD GO TO PULLING STUMPS Chain Breaks and Sweep Str_ikes Gandldate‘hightboum of Norman Bemidji Firemen Capture One W. J. Adams in the * Stomach. W.J. Adams, a farmer living| at Northern, was injured yester- day while pulling stumps on the J. E. Flatley farm a mile north- west of the city, He was struck in the stomach by the sweep, which was released under high pressure by the snapping of a chain. ' The injuries were thought at first to be serious and he was re- moved to the home of his daugh- ter, Mrs, J. E. Flatley, in this city, wherehe was attended by a physician. Reports this morn- ing, howeyer, are very favorable. Mr. A7 msis 60 years old. tiy Bought the Drinks. Rather an amusidg incident occured on Fourth street last evening. Twowen were walking along the walk between Beltrami and Minnesota avenues about 7:30 o’clock when several shrill whistles rent the air. Remem- bering the experience of the night before, they scented a second fire and started to run at top speed toward the city hall. Several men standing in the doorway of a mearby saloon watched: the sprinting with smiles that finally broadened in- to loud guffaws. “Run,” they shouted, ‘‘run hard, they are going to turn on the lights.” A Heavy Load to Carry. Along with d spepsia comes norvons- ness and general ill-health. Why? Be- cause a disordered stomach does not per- mit the food to be groperly digested, and its products assimilated by the system. e blood is charged with poisons which come from this disordered digestion, and in_turn the nerves are not fed on good, red blood, and we see symptoms of nerv- ousness, sleeplessness and general break- down. It is not head work, nor over phy- sical oxertion that does it, but poor stom- ach work. With poor, thin blood the body is not protected against the attack of germs of grip, bronchitis and consump- tlon. Fortify the body at once with Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery —a rare combination of native medicinal roots without a Fn.rticle of alcohol or dangerous_habit-forming drugs, A little book of extracts, from promi- nent medical authorities extolling every in%redlent contained in Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery will be mailed free to any address on request by Ppustnl card or letter. Address Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y. Many years of active practice convinced Dr. Pierce of the value of many native roots as medicinal aigen'.s and_he went to great expense, both in time and in money, to perfect his own geculi_ar processes for rendering them both efficient and safe for tonic, alterative and rebuilding agents. The enormous popularity of “Golden Medical Discovery” is dué both to its scientific compounding and to the actual medicinal value of its ingredients, The publication of the names of the ingredi- ents on the wrapper of every bottle sold, gives full assurance of its non-alcoholic character and removes all objection to the use of an unknown om secret remedy. It is not a patent medicine nor a secret one either, This fact puts it in a class all by itself, bearing-as it does upon every bottle wrapper The Badge of Honesty, in the full list of its ingredients, ‘The *Golden Medical Discovery ” cures, weak stomach, indigestion, or dyspepsia, torpid liver and biliousness, ulceration of stomach and bowles and all catarrhal af- fections no matter what parts or organs may be affected wath it.
