-~ THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONE VOLUME 4. NUMBER 180 BEMIDJ1, MINNESOTA, FRIDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 16, 1906. MINNESOTA HISTORICAL TEN CENTS PER WEIK INDIAN ‘GLEANED UP’ A CELESTIAL WAITER Hali-Breed Causes Chinese Blood to Flow in “United States Restaurant.” “‘BREED" REFUSED TO PAY FOR MEAL, BUT CHINAMAN INSISTED Henry Beaulieau, Refractory Red, Ar- rested and Will Be Tried in Justice Court. Henry Beauliecau, a White Earth half-breed Indian, believes in the old slogan, “The Chinesa must go,” and he fully demon- strated his belief, this forenoon, on the person of one Wong Lou, & Chinaman who waits on cus- tomers at the U. S. Chinese res- taurant. Beaulieau went into the res- taurant, ordered an oystar stew, and after eating the stew, re- fused to pay for it. Wong Lou remonstrated with Beaulieau, Owns an Island. Cyprian Fournier of Turtle River came down from his home this morning and went to Cass Lake this noon to transact some business at the U. S. land office. Mr. Fournier this afternoon made proof on lot 7, Section 22, and lot 9, Section 27, 148-33, be- ing one of the islands in Big Turtle lake, four miles west of Turtle River. He had with him as witnesses S. R. Moorhead and William Murry of Turtle River. The island on which Mr. Fournier is making proof is ad- mirably located as a summer resort, being in the center of ! Big Turtle lake, where there is {excellent fishing and hunting. Mr. Fournier has lived on the island for a year, aud will take ’ndvanmge of the opportunity to commute on the land. Awaiting Some Returns. The canvassing board is still waiting for the’ official last re- turns from several precincts, be- fore the work of completing the count can be terminated. 'The returns so far in have all been counted, and as soon as the miss- ing precincts are received the results will soon be known, be- and requested his money, There|yond a doubt. was an exchange of Chippewa and Chinese epithets, and then a; way of asserting his independ- veritable race war was on for a few moments, Beaulieau stepped ence. A hurry-up call was sent to police headquarters. Captain behind the counter and grabied | Helmer responded and took the Lou, bringing him to the front of refractory half-breed in charge, the counter, where he adminis- tered a few well-directed blows, and celestial gore flowed freely, covering a spot on the floor some two feet in diameter. Beaulieau also took occasion to smash several bottles of ketchup and other counter furniture, just by and landed him in the city lock- up, where he was allowed to sleep off the fumes of the fight- ing red-eye in which he had been indulging. Wong Lou was not very badly damaged, being more frightened than injured. SPLIT DEER FROM HEAD STRUCK IT RICH IN TO TAIL TO END DISPUTE| ) NSKA GOLD FIELDS Interesting Story Told on C. W. Speel- man and A. Brannon—Both Claimed Animal. John Mogan, who is buying logs at Northome for the Crooks- ton Lumber company, came down from Northome this morn- ing, to consult with the main office of the company. “Jack’’ tells how C. W. Speel- man and Arthur Brannon be- came involved in a dispute as to the ownership of a deer, which (both claimed to have shot. Neither would yield a particle as 1to possession and the matter was finally settled by an agreement to divide the deer. Instead of cutting the carcass, dividing the thind and front aquarters, the hunters insisted on cutting the ideer lengthwise between . the horns, so that each got half of ievery part of the whole deer. = Changes Firms. A, F. .Anderson, formerly manager of the A. T. Wheelock | Employment office, has resigied his position with that firm and {has become a partner in the Blackduck Employment com- pany of this city.

Oscar Foster, Formerly of Brainerd, Now of Nome, Home Visit- ing “Folks.” PASSED THROUGH BEMIDJI TODAY, WITH NUGGETS IN EVERY POCKET After Years of Work Brainerd Boy Struck Mine That Made His Fortune. Oscar Foster of Nome, Alaska, was a passenger on the south- bound M. & I. train this morn- ing, on his return to Brainerd from a visit with a brother at Mizpah. 2 . Mr. Foster is the owner of a gold mine near Nome, and he had with him in his pockets, this morning, two handfuls of gold nuggets that would cause' the eyes of the average citizen to bulge out with wonder and covet- ousness. He also wore a heavy watch chuin, made of nuggets, of the finest quality. Mr. Foster, who is an old resi- dent of Brainerd, and who still calls that place “home,” first went to the Nome country five|. years ago. Like many others who went there, he was not suc- cessful in his quest for the gilded stuff for some time. Dur- ing 1902, however, he, in com- pany with a few other in- dividuals,purchased the ‘‘Bessie” claim, about three miles from Nome, and began the develop- ment of the property. The work was pushed with but little suceess until at a depth of 150 feet from the surface, a vein was struck that made glad the hearts of Mr. Foster and his companions. This' vein was found to be five feet in thickness and extended for many hundred feet in all directions. The loca- tion was worked to the utmost, and at the end of the first seventy days of taking out the gold, $700,000 worth had been ‘har- vested.” The past year has been a very successful one at the “Bessie’’ mine, and the owners are greatly pleased with their property, which is rapidly mak- ing them independently rich. Mr. Foster will remain in Minnesota during the balance of the winter and will leave for Nome next spring, in time to catch the first boat from Port- land, Oregon. MRS.

Four fine deer occupied the M. & I. express car this morn- ing, having been shipped from Funiley to Minneapolis. They were the property of G. W. Sadler and S. E. Bingley of Minneapolis, who have been huntiuéin the vicinity of Funk- ley, and who secured two deer each, Heating Plant Installed.

BIG TIMBER OPERATIONS THIS WINTER IN ITASCA Feet in Big Fork and Bow String Country. ging operations carried on along the line of the Itasca Lumber company’s road, north from Deer River, during this winter, Itis estimated that about one hun- dred million feet will be cut in the Big Fork and Bow String country. Among the companies inter- ested in the operations along this line are Carpenter-Lamb, Pills- bury, Itasca, C. A. Smith and the Tabor lnmber concerns. The Itasca company alone has already established eighteen camps and will employ from 1500 to 1800 men in their work. This timber will all be cut where standing and if not in close proximity to the railroad will be hauled or driven in the spring to places where it can bhe hoisted onto the cars and hauled to Deer River, to be dumped into the Mississippi river at White Oak lake and sent from there Otto Has Tonsilitis. Adam Otto has been confined to his home for several days wit.h! an attack of tonsilitis. He was! so ill Wednesday that he fainted. However, he is rapidly recover- ing and will undoubtedly be out.l in a few days and able to resume his duties as city mail carrier. G. Weekman left this morning for Tenstrike, where he will put H. Lackye. | organization. southward toward Minneapolis. E Differences Adjusted. Charles Argall of Cass Lake passed through the city yester- day afternoon from the “Lake” to Bagley to lvok after some Five Companies to Log 100.000,000 | legal business. Mr. Argall stated that the friction which had existed there for several weeks between the members of the fire department There will be extensive log- and Mayor Gilbert of Cass Lake had been adjusted and that the re boys would continue their Cass Lake has always had the reputation of hav- ing one of the very best volunteer fire departments in the north half of the state, and the Be- midji fire boys would very mach regret to see Chief Leeman and his men step down and out. Quiet at the Agency. John G. Morrison, the sage of the Red Lake Indians, came down last evening from Red Lake agency and spent today in the city looking after some business matters. Mr. Morrison states that most of the Indians at the agency have recovered from the orgies attending the recent pay- ment and have resumed the ‘even tenor. of their ways,” several being ‘“‘sadder and wiser” MAN MISTOOK FOR A DEER, FATALLY .
