While the members of the Be- midji band were busy at re- hearsal last evening, a party of ladies suddenly appeared on the scene, laden with baskets filled with good things to eat and a lot of steaming coffee and invited the boys to “lay to.”” Although the musicians were taken by surprise, they lost no time in showing their appreciation of the ‘thoughtfulness of the ladies by partaking liberally.of the eat- ables, = Those who'created - and carried out the surprise were Mesdames Thomas Symington, H. E. Anderson, C. A. Parker and William Hubbard and Miss Hubbard, and they are heartily thanked by the boys for their kindness, His Pleading May Not Be Allowed o Stand in the United States Court. Big Bird, the murderously-in- clined Indian who attempted to sever the windpipe of another red near the Red Lake Indian agency on September 22, and who was taken to Walker gnd given a hearing on the charge of assault with intent to comrmit murder, plead guilty to the charge, although hé madea stren- uous denial that he was drunk at the time of the assault. Several witnesses were in readiness to testify to the acts of Big Bird, and would have proven that he was intoxicated, but the old fellow plead guilty to the principai charge, although re- senting the imputation that he had partaken too freely of ardent spints. He was placed under $10,000 bonds, which he was un- able to furnish and will be com- mitted to jail, It is the belief of some parties who were at the hearing that hs pleading will not be allowed to stand with the U. 8, court, and that he will be given a trial.

G. Pendergast will be the next lieutenant gov- ernor. “I was surprised at the senti- ment I found everywhere over the southern part of the state and in the twin cities,” said Mr. Miles. ‘All the traveling men are boosting for him, as well as the old soldiers, and his many other friends over the state. I believe he will be elected.”’ Good Success With Crops. E. F. Shaw, postmaster at Schoolcraft, about’ fifteen miles south of Bemidji, and one of the most progressive of the farmers in that vicinity, was in the city yesterday, doing some trading. Mr. Shaw states that he had very good success with his crops this year. Attorney Tone of Northome Would Rather Blow Up a Dam, Thank You. Bright Future for Beltrami. W. H. Moore, a land deaaler. of the twin cities who owns con- siderable land near Hines Spur, was in Bemidji yesterday, look ing after some business matters. Mr. Moore is an enthusiast on the matter of the value of northern Minnesota lands, and says: “I believe that there is no place in the entire country where a man can place his money to better advantage than in pur- chasing land right here in Bel- trami county. I have been all over most of the northwestern states, and I know of no place where the outlook for the future, along the lines of agricultural development, is more promising than here The land is very low in price, as compared with older settled communities, and there are developments every day that astonish the residents as to what can be done with the soil here. ““The settler here has the op- portunity of removing the timber from his land and at the present prices for cedar, tamarack and spruce, realizes a tidy sum in preparing the earth for the re: person "M ception of erops.

Northern Minnesota is all right;: E-ick Josephson, Son of Finland Noble, Aad A, Tone, the Northome attorney, spent yesterday in the city and left last night for Grand Rapids toattend a meeting of the board of county commis- sioners of Itasca county, of which he is a member. Mr. Tone was away on a visit in the northern part of Itasca county when the recent twin city delegation visited his town, and he expressed regret that he was urable to have been at Northome to assist in entertain- ing the visitors. However, there is dnother side to his regrets. There was a baby show on at Northome and a resident of that place informs the Pioneer that Aad “‘took to the woods” when requested toact as a judge of the “hopefuls” and determine which was “best.” Mr. Tone displayed admirable judgment in hieing him to the brush and avoiding possible damage to his Big Hoist of Logs. Northome, Oct. 5. The Backus- Brooks company is nearing the completion of the hoisting of logs from Bartlett lake, and soon the entire lot of logs that were in the'lake will have been hauled away.
