Saloon. WAS SICK AND ON WAY HOME FOUL PLAY NOT SUSPECTED With His Sister and Brother-in-Law, Had Taken Lodging for Night. John Cross, a Leech Lake Indian living near Walker, was found dead this morning in a room over the Great Northern saloon, where he and a sister and brother-m law had taken lodg- ings for the night. There were no marks on the body of Cross, and as he was a sufferer from severe illness, there was no pos- sible chance for a suspicion of foul play. Cross had for several months, up to a month ago, been attend- ing a school ic Kansas. He was taken ill while at the 'school and sent to his home, the autHorities at the school stating that he spit blood nearly all of the time, : and although not bedridden, it ‘was thought best that he return. A few days ago he went with his sister and her husband to Red Lake to visit with ancther sister. They remained there until yes- terday, and came to Bemidji on last evening’s M., Ri L. & M. train.: Cross and his relatives engn.ged rogms over the Great Northern salonn and retired at an early hour, Cross being in a room by himself. He was not distnrbed until 7 o’clock this morning, when bis brother-in-law called at the door to awaken him for the purpose of taking the M. & I. train to Walker. When the room was entered it was found that Cross was dead, baving expired sometime during the night. The police were notified and they in turn notified Coroner Marcum. The latter viewed the body and after questioning the sister and brother-in-law of Cross, decided that no inquest would be necessary, as he be- lieved Cross had died from natural causes, the rupture of a blood vessel. The body of Cross will be SMAI.I. BLAZE DAMAGES JOHN GRAHAM RESIDENCE Defective Chimney the Cause---Fire Quickly Extinguished With Small Loss. A chimney fire at the residence of John Graham, last evening, caused damage to the extent of about $50, and burned a portion of the rear gable end of the house. The chimney had originally contained two holes for the en- trance of stovepipe, and when the side of the house was re- paired the outer hole had been simply lathed and plastered over. When the chimney became over- heated fire broke through the old stovepipe hole. It was necessary to call out the fire department and after the judicious use of several pails of water and the tarning on of a stream from the hose, the blaze was extinguished. The evening was very cold and the work of the firemen was not pleasant to perform. Lowney’s chocolate bon bons are the best. Only at Peterson’s. Andrews Logging at Bridgie. T. J. Andrews left yesterday evening for Bridgie, where he is logging this winter. Mr. -Andrews owns an 80 acre homestead in Town 151.29, two and one-half miles northwest of B iidgie,on which there is consid- erable cedar, a quantity of tamarack and some pine. The cedar has been sold to the L. K. Deal’ Lutiber company, A. C. McLean will handle the tamarack for-the Martin Bros. of. Duluth, and the pine .was disposed of to the Crookston Lumber company. :The timber is all being hauled icto Bridgie. Mr. Andrews has one camp, and employs twenty |. men, and he anticipates that it will take the balance of the win- ter to clean up the timber. The best is the cheapest.

TEN CENTS PEB;E?K HER TRAIN STALLED BY DAKflTA BLIZZARD Mrs. Osborn Upper, Visiting Here, Has Thrilling Experience on tbe Prairies. IMPRISONED ON SHORT RATIONS BY THE STORM FOR 36 HOURS Farmers, With Supply of Poultry, Come to Rescue of Hungry Passengers. Mrs, Osborn Upper, daughter of W. A, Walker of this city, ar- rived in Bemidji last night for a holiday visit with her relatives here, after a trip which took one week to come from Prince Albert, Saskatchewan, and in which she had experiences she will not soon forget. Mrs. Upper’s ticket was over the Soo road and through North Dakota, As soon as the Soo train reached the northern boundary of the “Flickertail”’ state, the troubles of the passen- gers began. The blizzard, which caused much suffering and a fuel famine, was getting in its fine work and the train was stalled in the Spow. For thirty-six hours, Mrs, Upperand a number of other passengers remained in the passenger coach, with at one time prospects of running out of both eatables and fuel for the stoves. Some farmers living in the neighborhood, however, pos- sessed some live poultry that was bought withous regard to price, and there was fried spring chicken, chicken ‘on “toast, - iced chicken, and several other new kinds of cooked poultry that was good to the stalled passengers. Mrs. Upper and three travel- ing men were finally taken across country to the main line of the Great Noithern railway, where they witnessed the incidents of the fuel famine. In the hotel ‘where they stopped the landlord dropped his coal onto the fire in small chunks, and actually al- most shed tears when compelled to replemish the dying embers. Mrs. Upper got out as soon as possible, and is exceedmg]y well pleased to be again in Bemidji; while it is said that Soo train is still stuck in the snow out there on the Dakota prairie. Halvorson Improving. A. A. Haarklau, chairman of the board of supervisors of Buzzle township, was in the city yester- day from his home in Buzle, for the pu-pose of notiog the condi- tion of Knute Halvorson, an aged man who was brought to St. An- thouy’s hospital two weeks ago from Buzie. Halvorson had been an inmate of the hospital early last fall and was released. He caught a severe cold and was stricken blind, when the town authorities returned him to St. Anthony’s. Mr. Haarklau stated, after his visit yesterday,- that Halvorson was getting along very nicely and that his sight had al- ready been partially restored. Last Chance Tonight.
