For information write to - J. P. ELMER, General Passenger Agent, St. Paul, Minn. The Siren of La Prensa. La Prensa is the greatest and most *~ afluential paper in South America. Its offices are in Buenos Ayres, Argentina, situated in a magnificent building In tbe Avenlda. This bullding 1s said to be one of the most imposing In the world. It has a tower crowned by a great golden statue of a young woman representing the Spirit of the Press. The proudest possession of La Prensa 1s a 5,000 horsepower steam operated piren. Whenever there is an appalling disaster—the death of a crowned head or other event of worldwide interest— whoop goes La Prensa's siren and is heard for a while throughout the city. The local government exacts a fine for this performance, $100 per minute, with a minimum of $200, and .if the fine Is not paid on the nail the charge is double, so when one man is sent to operate the screecher another Is sent running with a two hundred dollar bill to the courts. The next operation !s to drape the above referred to young woman's torch with red velvet in case of a catastrophe; with crape in the event of a death. All this causes the most extraordinary sensation. The Capture of Jeflerson Davis. How Mrs. Davis prevented her hus- band from escaping in his flight after the fall of the Confederacy is told in Mrs, A 's book, “Dixie After the ‘War.” ‘After leaving Washington, Ga., Mr. Davis had heard that maraud- ers were in pursuit of his wife's cortege, and, turning out of his course, he rode hard across country, found his family, couvered them beyond the present danger, as he thought. and was about to renew his journey south. The party camped, when he was roused at dawn by his negro serv- ant, who said troops were coming. Mrs. Davis begged her husband to leave. His horses and weapons were near the road down which the cavalry was coming. In the darkness of the tent he caught up what he took to be his raglan, a sleeveless waterproof garment. It was hers. She then threw a shawl over his head. He went out of the tent, she keeping near. “Halt!” cried a trooper, leveling a carbine at him. Mr. Davis dropped his wraps and hurried forward. Mrs. Davls saw the carbine, cast her arms about her husband and lost him his one chance of escape, for he might have slipped away in the dark.

SUBSCRIPTION---$5.00 PER ANNUM It is too bad that more of the farmers in the neighborhood of Bemidji could not have come in for the farmers’ institute, beld at the opera house yesterday. The i’ | institute is one of the best places - [in the world for the farmer to . | get practical pointers and hints |about his worlk, and is well worth the day’s time it takes, and the trouble of coming into town. The institute is a new un- dertaking in Bemidji and doubt- less next year there will be a larger attendance. N. F. Hugo has lost standing with the Ninth district delega- tion to the lower house of the legislature since the Brecken- ridge caucus, and has materially lessened, if not totally destroyed, the excellent chance he had of being the second choice for speaker of the members from this congressional district. There was no ‘“‘rotten deal” at Brecken- ridge, as Mr. Hugo claims, and the Duluth man has made the mistake of his life by shouting the allegation from the house. tops. Bellyaching when he was beat never yet won a man any- thing. Why is it that the walk leading from Beltrami avenue to the courthouse, and the front porch of the handsome county building cannot be kept cleared of snow? The narrowest kind of a lane be- tween two snow banks, which more resembles a path to the barn than the approach to a costy edifice, has been cleaned; but is there any good reason why the snow should be left a foot or so deep on the rest of the walk, on the broad steps,and on the handsome Vveranda? Visitors to the city who have business at the courthouse, or who pass by the building, are given'a fiie idea of Bemidji enterprise. It is a shame, GOOD USE OF PRIZE MONEY. Fully as notable as the award- ing of the $40,000 Nobel peace prize to President Roosevelt, in recognition of his services in bringing about the Portsmouth Peace, which ended the Russo- Japanese war, is the disposition the president is to make of the money. President Roosevelt might very well have added it to his private fortune and no one could have criticised his action; but in- stead of that, he has determined to establish with it a fund for a permanent industrial peace com- mittee, with headquarters at Washington. In his letter of ac- ceptance to the Norwegian parlia- ment, which awarded the prize, President Roosevelt says in part: After much thought I have councluded that the best and most fitting way to apply the amount of the prize is by using it asa fund to establish at Washiogton a permanent industrial peace committee. The object will be to strive for better and more equitable relations among my countrymen who are engaged, whether as capitalists or wage- workers, in industrial and agri- cultural pursuits. This will carry .out the purpose of the founder of the- prize, for in modern life it is important to work for the cause of just and righteous peace 1n the industrial world as in the world of nations. TAKE THE P. 0. OUT OF POLITICS. Postmaster General Cortelyou ‘has called attention to a needed reform when he asserts in his annual report that the postoffice department should be taken out mess basis: Says the secretary: Nearly two years of adminis- tration confirms me in the opinion that the postmasters of the coun- try should be appointed by no party primarily as rewards for political activity, but primarily |- on the basis of fitness for the work and regard for the wishes of the communities they serve. I know of no one thing that will do more for the postal service than continued insistence upon the policy of substituting busi ness for politics in the admin tration of 1ts ‘affairs.
