" Joha-Wilmann, John Wilmann, who received the nomination and election to the office of county auditor two years ago, is seeking re-election and asks the support of the people, During bis term of office he has made a careful search for _|lands which have escaped taxa- tion and has succeeded in adding many acres of land to the tax rolls. His way of haundling the forfeited tax sale last fall per- mitted a number who would have otherwise ]osfi: their places, by giving them a little time, to make paymant.ofithe amounts dae. Mr. Wilmann is serving his first term and the office today isin much be tter shape than at the time he took it. The vo'ers of the county should remember Mr. Wilmann at the polls on - | primary election day. BELTRAMI PROVES ITSELF 600D LIVESTOGK GOUNTRY Charles sygog,dq,Selh;vh Twin City Fancier Blooded Cattle,. Raised at His Farm. That a Beltrami county farmer ‘can raise blooded stock that com- mands a large price in the twin cities has been demonstrated by Charles F. Schroeder, who owns a valuable farm four miles west of Bemidji, in tne town of Grant Valley. Mr. Schroeder has shipped to John B. Irwin of Minneapolis four registered Holstein caitle which he raised on ‘his ‘place. One is *‘Bemidji Chief,” a hand some bull weighing 1400 pounds. A cow called “Bemidji Queen” and a bull calf and a heifer calf accom panied the bull. The animals are of a superior breeding and are the pride of Mr. Schroeder, who only parted with them by receiving a fancy price. Beltrami county is a good .stock-raising community, as well as having been the head- quarters for lozflmg for the past ten years. The Great McEwen will positively show at the opera house tonight. The Way He Viewed It. “Good news!” cried the lawyer, wav- Ing a paper above his head, “I've se- cured a reprieve for you!” “A reprieve?”’ replied- the convicted murderer indifferently. “Why, yes. Don’t you see you ought to be happy”— “AhL,” replied the prisoner gloomily, “that simply means a delay, and I've always been taught that delays are dangerous.” — Catholic Standard and Times.

Train, While Crew Rescues It With Poles. The M. & I. passenger train from the north, which is due in Bemidji at 7:50 a. m., was one hour and forty-five minutes late this morning and did not reach| here until 9:30 o'clock. When the train reached a point about a mile north of Mizpah; a horse ran ahead of the -engine and was caught in the rails of a bridge across a small stream. The animal was unable to extri- cate itself and the train was stopped until the train crew and the passengers, with the aid of long poles pried it loose and drove it from the right-of- way. - When Funkley was reached, it was found that the engine on the branch line train running from Kelliher to Funkley had been| disabled and the main-line train was taken to Kelliher to get the passengers and mail there for the south. This consumed an hour’s time, so that the train was much behird the schedule when 1t left Funkley. A stop of half an hour is usually made in Be- midji for breakfast, but this was dispensed with this morning, and the vrain stupped here but a few moments, ‘thus saving half an hour of the delay.

The demonstrator took from his pocket an envelope, struck a parlor match on a rail and shielded it inside of the en- velope, facing the wind as he did so. ‘The match burned with hardly a flick- er, and the maun who held it puffed on his plpe with great satisfaction. “That's a trick worth knowing.” he remarked. . “Here's another.

Star Rays, ‘What causes the rays or pencils of light that seem to be thrown out by every star when seen by the naked eye? ‘A German scientist finds that al stars show precisely the same rays, but that in the cnse of the brighter stars the rays are plainer and some what longer. It is further remarked that the rays seen by the left and right eyes differ, and that If the head be turned the rays ave rotated in a corre. sponding manner, It is thus concluded | that the source of the rays is not in the: stars, but In the eye ltself, the middle of the retina being not perfectly homo. geneous in its sensitiveness. SN | at the hospital very ill, Reunion Sunday. E. H. Jerrard returned this morning from Superior and Duluth, where he had been over Sunday attending a reunion of the Jerrard brothers and sisters and their families.
