The Minnesota & International railway is pushing the work on the new bridge which the com- pany intends to build across the Little Fork river at Big Falls. It is the intention of the company Tomorrow s “Walker to span the river at once, but whether the line of railroad will be extended north of Big Falls this year is known only to the officers of the company, and they are maintaining a Sphinx-like silence relative to the purpose of the compauy. The new bridge will have 1,300 feet of an approach and the main trestle over the river will be 600 feet. The approach is being built as rapidly as possible, and already fifteen bents have been driven fromw the south end of the bridge. There will be two spans and the bridge will be a sub- stantial affair in every respect. It is known that several differ- 300 FROM BEMIDJI INVADE BLACKDUCK Special Train, Loaded to the Guards, Carries Local Crowd to Fair This Morning. “BEMIDII DAY” PROGRAM THE BEST OF ENTIRE THREE DAYS Day,” and Blackduck Is P)anning on a Royal Reéeplion.

They buy that kind. The farct that a shoe should feel comfortable from the start is unknown to them because they have never felt the luxury of putting on a rightly made shoe. They overlook the fact that a Hanan shoe at its price gives the wear of two pairs of the kind they buy. They forget, also, that a HANAN SHOES offers more real comfort when new than their kind of shoes offer after months of wear—that it starts out a smart, stylish shoe and ends just as smart and stylish. There are not so many such people as there know this because we sell so many more Hanan shoes than we used. Maybe you prove these facts. Look at our latest styles in $3 50 & $5 shoes. used to be. We would like to window for the “best fellows’’ in town. To add t» the occasion the band was taken along, and the baseball team also was ticketed for the fair city. The program for today was undoubtedly the best so far held, and included an address by Congressman Halvor Steenerson, baseball games between the Be- midji and Blackduck K. of P.’s, and between the regular teams from Bemidji and from Black duck. There were also horse races, sports, a dog circus, a band:concert; etc;, ete.” ~ The program for tomorrow will be as follows: 9:30 mect ng the special train from Walker. 10:30, wheelbarrow race, three- legged race, high jump, high kick, fat men’s race, followed by Herschell’s dog circus. The time from 12 a. m. to 2 p. m, will be given up to the pleasures of dinner, and at the latter hour the tug of-war between the horses will come off. The first one will be a pulling wmatch between two teams, and the second between two single horses. Prizes will also be awarded for the best walking team, for the best appearing team, for the best working team, and also for the best draft team.

Blackduck, Aug. 30. (Special Looks Like A Miracle An exchange from Mattoon, Ills., gives an ioterestinz acconnt of a re- markable exi erience of Mrs. Charles Bills, of 2312 DeW.tt Ave., that eity, who, afte being a eripple from rh e matism for several months says she three days treatment with L Cooper's new medicines. Continuing th aricle says: “Mrs Bills is wel known in Mattoon and her case is looked upon as on= of the most start ing that have yet been credited to Cooper’s preparations.’” An interview with, Mrs. Bills is quoted 88 follows: **N» one knows what I suffered from rheumatism and iv is indeed a great relief to be able to walic with ease ani without wmy crutches ufter being helpless for so long. T had heard many reports of the wonderful results that were ac- complished with these medicines but I could never believe that they were 80 affective unless I bad tried them myself, after everything else failed.’ It will be remembered that these are the medicines that have been effecting such remarkable results for sufferers all over the country of late. Soveral cases of unusual nature have beea re- ported in Bemidji. The preparations which are known Cooper’s ‘Quick Relief are handled here by E. A.

The day was designated as “Up- the line Day,” and more than 250 people from Kelliher and Big Falls were in the village. The forenoon was spent in see- ing the various exhibits and the free circus given by Herschall’s dogs. The Big Falls brass band came with the excursionists and was very liberal in discoursing music about the town during the day. The principal feature of the afternoon was the baseball game between Big Falls and Kelliher teams. There has been great rivalry between the baseball “fans” of Big Falls and Kelliher, and the game was a fiercely-contested affair. There was great cxcite- ment during the eutire game. The score was a t'e at the end of t1e ninth inning, 9 t» 9, and an extra inning was played. Kolli- her secured one score in the tenth inning and Big Falls was blanked, Kelliher winning, by a score of 10 to 9. Considerable money changed hands on the result.
