B e T THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER TWO ARE HELD | TO0 GRAND JURY CASH CARNIVAL RANKS "WAY UP Bereman and Brady Waive EX-company Coming to Bemidii amination at Preliminary Hear- ing at Northome. BOTH MEN FURNISH BAIL AND ARE NOW AT LIBERTY Led Wild Life for Several Years. The examination of Edison Bereman and B. F, Brady. who are charged with being implicat- ed in the causes which led to the death of Archie Campbell at Houpt last Saturday night, was held at Northome last evening before Justice Duncan. The charge preferred against the two men is that they ‘killed one Archibald Campbell, in the heat of passion, but in a cruel and unusual manner not under such circumstances as to consti- tute excusable homicide, Camp- bell, being so struck with a club about the head in the hands of Edison Bereman, said club being two feet long and two inches thick.” Both men waived exam- ination and were remanded to the custody of Deputy Sheritf O, M. Olson, of Northome, E E. McDonald was present, as attorney for Bereman. Aad A. Tone of Northome, county com- missioner of Itasca county, was also present. Brady and Bereman were brought to Bemidji this morning and application was at once made to Judge Spooner for bail for the men, which was easily secured, Bereman being bound over in the sum of $1,000 and Brady for $500, and they are now at liberty and will return to Houpt this evening. It has been learned that a man named McFadden wag with Archie Campbell on his travels previous to the death of Camp- bell. At Blackduck, McFadden, who was very intoxicated, seconded Campbell inhis row with Station Agent MecCormick, the latter having to summon two men to assist him in quieting the intoxicated men. McFadden went to Funkley with Campbell, but was so intoxicated that Campbell left him there and pro- ceeded alone to Houpt on the passenger train that evening. McFadden is a fugitive from justice. A warrant has been out for his arrest for some time on the charge of having assaulted a brakeman at Blackduck. W. S. Campbell, father of Archie Campbell, has been at Houpt since Wednesday evening, when he came from his home at Rollette, N. D., and has been 1n- quiring into the circumstances surrounding the death of his son. The elder Campbell was for several years engaged in logging at Nary, in Hubbard county, and other points near here, and has several acquaintances in Bemidji. The dead boy also worked in the woods hereabouts, Campbell, Sr.,, states that Archie was 18 years of age and was born at Park River, N. D. Mrs. Campbell, his mother, died Young Campbell. Dead Boy, Ilad‘ Next Month Reaps High Praise. The T. I. Cash Carnival com- pany. which will give entertain- ments here during carnival week, August 14 15-16-17-18, is not the company that is appearing at Brainerd this week. That the Cash company is much . better than the average carnival com- panics that are touring the coun- try is evident from reperts in newspapers whereit has appear- ed of late. The Grafton Record says of the carnival held at Grafton July 17 and 18: The T. I. Cash Amusement company furnished considerable amusement to large crowds both Monday and Tuesday, the heavy rain of Wednesday pulting a stop to all exhibits that day. The numerous tents which for a distance of three blocks have dotted the streets were folded Wednesday afternoon and like the Arab ‘‘silently stole away.’ Some of the [ree exhibits, not- ably the high dive, leap the gap and the bicycle riding in the cage of death were fine attractions. The latter especially is probably the best feature of the carnival Two bicycle riders perform the feat of riding around and up the inside of a large wooden cage in spite of the laws of gravitation The balloon ascensions once a day came off as advertised. The Ferris Wheel, merry-go-round and tent shows attracted quite large crowds both day and even- ing. Had the rain not interferred Wednesday would probably have brought a large crowd, There were two contestants for queen of the carnival. Miss Jessie McLean. and Miss Helen Hall, Miss McLean winning eut with a vote of 10,784, Miss Hall bringing in 9,651 votes. Miss McLean was presented Monday with a handsome gold watch.

BAKER & COMPANY BRICK BUILDING ON NAYLOR LOT Ground Sold to A. P. White, Who Will Erect Structure at Once. A handsome brick structure of at least two stories is to rise on the ruins of the Naylor building, burned a number of weeks ago. The lot, owned by E. L. Naylor, has been transferred to A. P. White of Port Smith, Ark., with- in the last few days and the new owner plans on putting up a building at once. Work will be- gin as soon as the plans can be drawn and the contract let. The transfer price of the land was $2.800. Mr. White has been in town for three or four days and will remain until the first of next week, which will give him time to make full arrangements for the structure. “This purchase and my in. tended further investment means that I still have the utmost faith in the continued growth and prosperity of Bemidji,”” said Mr. White 1n speaking to the Pioneer, “T have been gone two years and am now a resident of Arkansas, but I still have a love for the city, and believe that it is a good place in which to invest money.” Mr. White is now in the bank- ing and land business in Ar- kansas and is doing well. He was a pioneer resident of Be- midji, and gave up his position as cashier of the HKirst National bank of this city and went south two years ago. Mrs. White and the childrea came with the banker on his visit north, and will remain here for the rest of the month. SAW MOOSE AS TAME AS COWS A. A. Warfield and Brother John, Made Interesting Trip in St. Louis County. A, A. Warfield has returned from a trip to his claim, in Town- ship 65, range 14, fifty miles north of Tower, Minn. He was accompanied by his brother, John Warfield of Princeton, Ill. They engaged a rowboat at Tow- er, put a gasoline engine in the craft and made the entire trip by boat. Andrew asserts that moose, up in that country, are as tame as ‘“moolley cows.” He saw threeand was fearful lest they would swim nto the stream and climb into his boat. The country thereabouts is so densely wooded and swampy thatit is next to impossible to get anything out and the moose bave not been disturbed. It is not uncommon to see three or four of the big fellows eating from the banks or standing in the river. SKEPTICS, GO SEE POOR FARM Thirty Acres, Blossoming as the Rose, Show Value of Bel- trami Land. A visit to the county poor farm will illustrate to anyone who be- lieves that the so-called jackpine land is not fit for agriculture that he knows not whereof he speaks. There are thirty acres of land cleared and under cultivation at the farm, twelve acres being sown to oats, thirteen acres to fodder corn, and there is a five- acre garden. The oats are thriv- ing finely, and the field is prob- ably thebest in the entire county. The heads are well filled, the kernel is plump and sound and the stalk is long and well matured. The cropis beginning to turn yellow and will soon be ready for the harvester. The fodder corn is coming along nicely and gives promise of being an abundant crop, while the garden is the apple of Supt. Phillippi’s eye. . Nearly every variety of vegetable known to the gardener is here in abundance. J. M.
