The baseball game to be played at the new down-town park to- morrow afternoon promises to be the best contest that has been pulled off here this year. The visiting players will arrive from Cloquet on the 8 o’clock train to- morrow morning and will have plenty ot rest before the game is called 1n the afternoon. The Cloquets will line up as fol- lows: Rasch ¢, Booth and Sheehy P, Houle 1b, Prouix 2b, T. Crotty ss, Bentz 3b, Popkins rf, D. Crotty cf, Rooney 1f. Bemidji will face her opponents in the following positions: Holstein c, Lee LeGore p, Lewis 1b, Riddell 2b, Summers ss, Gilmore 38b, F. LeGore rf, Hazen cf, Collins 1f. Holstein will arrive on this evening’s train and will be be- hind the bat for Bemidji. Gil- more, the new third baseman secured from Durand, Wis., will be here today. With the-line up that the Be- midji team presents, she will be able to give the strong visiting aggregation a run for the money all through the game, In the team there are at least four good pitchers who can ‘‘deliver the goods.” Lee LeGore, Farley LeGore, Hazen and Summers are all first-class boxmen, who have speed and good curves. The game will be. called at 4 o’clock, sharp. There will be no interference with either specta- tors or players, sothat nc one need fear the consequences of seeing the game. “DOPE” OF 'EE DIAMOND; PLAYERS THAT YOU KNOW The Grand Forks baseball team of the Northern Copper Country league has “‘gone to the bad” and the members of the team are now ‘‘orphans.” Arthur Ludwig, who formerly lived at Cass Lake and has played several games with the Bemidji team in past years, is a member of the Forks team, and he is one of the several who ‘are outin the cold on the deal. Ludwig, when not playing ball, is an'employe of the Great Northern railway, and he will at once resume his duties as eonductor ¢n @ train running out of Grand Forks to Minot, “Shy” Meyers, who caught several games for Bemidji, last year, is this season a member of the Staples team. “Shy” caught for S aples, against Brainerd, at Wadena, on the Fourth of July and he made an enviable record. Besides catching a nice game, he lammed out two home runs. It ion. |iS said that “Shy” will finish the seasnn with the Duluth “White Sox,” «f the Northern-Copper Country league.

Whether the mighty Rogers twirled for Walker is not known, Rogers simply had luck all his own way during the early part of the season, and was due to get his “bumps,’” sooner or later, anyway. If it is possible to do so, Be- midji should arrange to play a game here with the Staples team. That organization is composed principally of railroad men, and they have been walking away with every game they have played, so far, this season. They simply outclassed Akeley, and beat Brainerd to a standstill, at Wadena, on the Fourth. *‘Old Hoss’’ Mogan has taken to the timber to cruise around among the . mosquitoes for a while. ‘“Too much punk ball on ‘the part of one outfit styled the Jacksons, for me,” quoth Mogan before departing for the wilds. y The “Big Duluths’ is a team that would draw well here, and if the expense incidental to a game with them is not too great they should be brought here in the near future, 4 William Fellows was a passen- ger on this morning’s train from Tenstrike and is transacting business in the city between trains, e *‘Forkers” Loud in Their Praise of Bemidji as a Summer Resort. A number of prominent Grand Forks (N. D.) people who came to Bemidji the first of the week for the purpose of spending the Fourth here amidst cool breezes and splendid bathing and fishing, departed yesterday afternoon for their homes. J. 0. Lambe, a painter who has a very Ilarge business throughout the north half of the Flickertail state, was compelled to leave for home yesterday afternoon on account of a rush of contracts which he has on hand. Mr. Lambe owns a cottage at Grand Forks bay, and his family will remain here the balance of the summer. J. Walker Smith, president of the First National Bank of Grand Forks, accompanied by his wife and two daughters, spent three days at Grand Forks bay and re- turned home yesterday. C. F. Templeton, ex-judge of the district court of Grand Forks county, and wife, were also visitors at the Bay. The judge is naturally of a taciturn nature, but when he is asked about Bemidji and her beautiful lake, fishing that can be had here, and the unexcelled boating, he becomes an enthusiast. ‘“‘Best in this part of the state,” quote the judge, before departing for home. ‘‘Feel ten years younger. ) Dan Bull enjoyed several days among his townsmen who are re- siding at the Bay. Michael Sullivan, one of the most prominent residents of the Forks, came over from the west on Monday and remained until yesterday afternoon. He said to the Pioneer, regarding his stay here: “You people have the best summer resort in the northern part of Minnesota. The life at Grand Forks bay is simply grand. There is a cool, pleasant place, free from mosquitoes, well shaded, with a beach that affords an elegant place to bathe; and the fishing around Diamond Point cannot be equalled. My wife had the time of her life, fishing. She caught several fine, large pike, and I am no slouch, myself. I will not be satisfied until I have had another trip up here, later in vhe season.” George J, Hankey and son, and S, Heyrdahl of Grand Forks, N, D., left for their homes yester- day afternoon, - after having spent several days in Bemidji and in the vicinity of Hackensack Thursday looking for some bass tishing. - They were fairly sue- cessful on the lake at that point, securing several fine, large black bass, the kinvd that maketh the angler swell with pride. ‘And we opine there will be some “tall” tales told over at the Forks, dur- ing the next two.or three days, relative to the prowess of Hankey and Heyrdahl as bass fishermen.

I remember many years ago a dinner at the palace—a great official dinner— where among the guests were many of the old leaders of rebellions, old up- holders of the shogunate.
