JAMES A, WONZOR DIED IN BEMIDJI YESTERDAY Had Been lll Since August.—Consump- tion of the Bowels Final Cause of His Death. James A. Wonzor of this city died at his home, Corner Ninth St. Beltrami and ill- Won- last Ave.,, after an Mr. seriously ill ness of several months. zor was taken August and has been confined to his home ever since with an illness which finally terminated in consump- tion of the bowels. Recently Mr. Wonzor failed rapidly, and Friday and Saturday his condition became such that it was only a matter of hours when he would succomb. Mr. Wonzor was born January 18, 1856, at Orelia, Canada. He was one of the early settlers of this city and had a large acquaintance. He was a barber by trade and has many friends in this community. Few people realized that Mr. Won- zor was very seriously ill. It was known that he had been suffering from rheumatic fever. This however, had been cured, but was succeeded by comsumption of the bowels, which was fatal. Mr. Won- zer was very well liked in this city, and was known as a sober, indus- trious citizen, who always did all in his power for the interest of the city. Mr. Wonzor is survived by two children, a daughter and a son. The daughter is Miss Birdie Wonzor, unmarried,who is living in San Fran- cisco. The son is The A. Wonzor, who is married, and with whom the deceased has lived in this city dur- ing the last five months. The arrangements for the funeral have not yet been completed, as Miss Birdie Wonzor has been notified of her father’s death, and the funeral will not be held until she gets here, which will be on Wednes- day or Thursday. The A. Wonzor informs the Pio- neer that he is endeavoring to secure Rev. Frank Higgins to preach the funeral sermon. Buy No More Ties. This morning, AT C. McLean, the general north-country representative for Martin Bros. of Duluth, one of the largest tie dealing firms in northern Minnesota, received a tele- gram ordering him to buy no more ties for the present, until further orders. There was no explanation accompanying the telegram. Mr. McLean states that this action is taken at the request of the North- ern Pacific Railway company, which has bought more of the Martin Bros.’ logs than any other coinpany, the N. P. people having stated re- cently that they had all the ties they wanted. This order will be regretfully received by residents of the northern woods, who have been getting out ties for sale to Mr. McLean. The order means the discontinuance of several tie camps north of Bemidji. *‘East Lynne,” Nov. 2I. Every one has seen or read “East Lynne.” Full of comedy, pathos and sentiments it has a trend of feeling that appeals to the sympathy of all. It will still be a great play when the popular plays of the day are gone and forgotten. Its story is the old one of man, the tempter and the betrayer, and women the unction caused by an uncalled for ealously. Itis interesting full of heart interest and isa lesson to every human being, It willbe seen atthe City Opera House Thursday evening, Nov. 21. Will Teach Schoolcraft School. Word comes from Schoolcrart postoffice (in Hubbard county, south of Bemidji) to the effect that Miss Lizzie Murphy, daughter of Mr. and Mrs." Joseph Murphy, has been en- gaged to teach the school in the Schoolcraft district, and that she began her duties as tutor this morning. Miss Murphy last Friday evening finished a term of school in her home district, near Lake Plantagnet. @i - Not Good Game Weather. Joseph Murphy, the sage of the Marquette lake country, was a !\'isi\or in the city today. Mr. Murphy states that the present conditions are not good for hunting big game. ‘“There is no snow on the ground,” says Mr. Murphy, “and the leaves and brush are so dry that one cannot pass in the woods with- out making all kinds of noise. If we had a little snow it would make a great deal of difference.” Recruit for the Marines. Sergeant Allan Ward, of the U. S. Marines, today secured Mordecia N. Mitchell as a recruit for the Marines. Mr. Mitchell will be sent to the navy yard at Brooklyn as soon as Lieutenant H. D. South arrives from St. Paul and administers the oath to him, EXPERT TELLS FARMERS ABOUT RAISING GLOVER Says Its Proper Seed to Sow to Prepare Lands for Raising Other Cereals. The farmers who are tilling the soil in the north half of the state will be interested in the remarks of C. Beaman Smith, of Washington, D. C, an assistant agriculturist of the department of agriculture, con- cerning the adaptability of cut-over pine lands for raising clover. Mr. Smith was at Wadena recently, and he gave out the following state- ment: *We know from careful investiga- tion, from scientific research and from practical experience, much about clover. There is, however, much more that we do not know about this plant. I came here from the northern part of the southern peninsula of Michigan, where clover growing is perhaps the chief indus- try. The people down there have been in business for a longer time than you have up this way, and their success have been more marked. In that locality a yield of 12 bushels to the acre of medium red seed was accomplished. This was an abnor- mal yield and such a result was obtained but once and by but one man. It is, however, not unus- lual in Michigan for clover to yield as high as 10 bushels to the acre and 6 to 8 bushels are common. “I am comparing Michigan with Wadena county for the reason that the soil is similar to what you have in a large, section of this county. Michigan clover growers who farm on practically pure sand much finer than what you have here, are getting abundant results with clover. The land was formerly covered with pine and later grew up to jack pine. I am informed that a large section of Wadena county is known as jack pine lands. “We do know this, that clover will grow luxuriantly on this light soil and I will even venture the posi- tive assertion that there is no land so light in Wadena county but that it will produce an abundant clover crop. A million acres of Michigan jackpine lands were reclaimed by clover. “The flower midge is probablly the most important factor in deter- mining the yield of clover seed. Few of your farmers will know anything of this little insect, but it is here, as it is wherever clover is grown. This flower midge attacks the clover whenit is in bloom. It then goes into the ground and spins a coocoon around itself and after a period it reappears, generally when the clover which has been cut fora hay crop is in bloom a second _time. This insect preys on the flower and destroys it, and thus there is no seed. *“Clover is a wonderful plant. It will work wonders for northern Minnesota as it hasdone in north- ern Michigan. All crops fail some-| times, but the farmers of Wadena and adjoining counties will pursue the wise plan if they follow up clover growing more or less each 'and every year.” Favorable Report on Prohlibition. Montgomery, Ala, Nov. 18.—The Senate committee on temperance has agreed to report favorably the pro- hibition bill already passed by the house, with an amendment that all counties voting “dry” by Dec. 12 are to be “dry” after Jan. 1, and in coun- tles voting after that datd the law 18 not to go Into effect until Oet. 1.

IOHNSON FOR SECOND PLACE Asserted in Windy City That a Ticket Made Up of the Former Chlef Ex- ecutive and Minnesota’'s Governor Could Be Elected. Chicago, Nov. 18 —Grover Cleve- land as the Democratic candidate for president is suggested in political cir- cles In Chicago. It is urged that a ticket headed by Mr. Cleveland, with Governor Johnson of Minnesota for vice president, could be elected. The politicians making the suggestion are strongly opposed to the nomination of William Jennings Bryan and the Cleveland suggestion is in the way of a Bryan antidote. It came up in connection Wwith the “week end” political gathering which Chairman Tom Taggart of the Demo- cratic national committee is to give at French Lick Springs, Ind., next Friday. He has invited not only the other members of the committee, but several Democratic politicians. A fair- sized attendance is looked for. 1t is taken for granted among the Democrats here that the purpose of the gathering is to see whether there is any good way of heading off the Rryan boom. While all the members of the committee have been asked to attend the word brought to Chicago is that none of the other politicians in- vited is of the Bryan persuasion-and the inference is that they are to use their persuasive powers on whatever Bryan adherents there may be among the committee members to convince them of the error of their ways. CONTINUE FIGHT ON BRYAN Eastern Democrats Favor a More Con- servative Candidate. Chicago, Nov. 18—A special to the Record-Herald from Washington says: ‘William J. Bryan’s announcement of his readiness to lead the Democratic party again next year is just what those closest to him have been ex- pecting for several months. Those not so close to him had hoped that Bryan would step aside and give some other man a show. There will be a continuation of the fight against Bryan and in favor of a more conservative candidate by the element represented by some of the larger Democratic newspapers, nota- bly in the East, and by certain mem- bers of the Democratic national com- mittee who were brought to the front by the reorganization preliminary to the Parker campaign. Tammany will not swallow Bryan until he is forced down its throat by the national con- vention. 3 There is reason to believe that Mr. Bryan made sure of his hold on the rank and file of the party before de- claring himself formally in the race. As far as politicians are concerned all of those who are not for him are not necessarily against him. The ex- planation of this paradoxical state- ment is that a great many Demo- cratic leaders who are at heart op- posed to Bryan and Bryanism realize his popularity with the rank and file and, as ome of the most prominent among them recently stated, “Bryan can do the party more harm in a pri- vate capacity than he can as a can- didate.” DECREASE IN NET EARNINGS Report of Seventy-one Railroads for Month of September.

Thirty-one railroads have now reported for the first week of November and they show 1.84 per cent increase in gross earnings. For the month of September Southern Pa- cific showed an increase of $1,466,000, or over 15 per cent, in gross earnings and at the same time a decrease of $714,000, or over 22 per cent, .in net earnings, and in the case of Union Pa- cific an increase of $679,000, or over 112 per cent, in gross earnings and a decrease of $559,000, or over 26 per cent, in net earnings, RECEIVERS ARE APPOINTED Action Taken Against Defunct Banks and Trust Companies. Kingston, N. Y., Nov. 18—Tempo- rary receivers have been appointed for six New York city banks and trust companies which recently suspended | payment. The banks are the Ham- {lton of New York, the Brooklyn bank and the Borough bank of Brooklyn and the trust companies are the Wil- liamsburg and Jenkins of “Brooklyn and the International of New York.

Malden, Mass, Nov. 18.—Notices have been posted in the factories of the Boston Rubber Shoe company in this city afd Melrose announcing that the plasts would close next Saturday. Three thousand employes will be thrown out of employment. The Mal- den factory will be closed for tem days, while that at Melrose is not.ex- pected. to resume operations before Jan. 1. MR. ROOSEVELT’S POSITION Favors Taft's Nomination but Is Not Against Cortelyou. ‘Washington, Nov. 18.—Archbishop Ireland of St. Paul was a visitor at the White House and later, as is al- most Invariably the case when he calls on the president, he took lunch- eon with the exeoutive, The Visit of | Archbishop: Ireland and. hig known actlve interest in fairs naturilly caused well political af- more or less 42%p &hout his_opinions congerniog | Drésldential yoifiics. 17 declined to dlscuss the subject in any way, but a local paper published a story in re- gard to the debate which Is sald to be golng on In the mind of the arch- bishop whether he should favor the nomination of Secretary Taft or Sec- retary Cortelyou. As the story is told 1t runs as follows: The archbishop recently called upon Secretary Cortelyou and In the course of conversation told the secretary of his personal regard for and desire to support President Roosevelt; that he understood the president wanted Taft as his successor and if this was so he was for Taft. “But the president is also for me,” was the astonishing answer the arch- bishop recetved. “While he is for Mr, Taft he is just as much for me and will not object to my nomination.” The archbishop didn’t know what to do when he got back to Minnesota, He reported the situation to his friends, who promptly set on foot an Inquiry. This developed some inter- esting things, some of which follow: The president is for Taft, as he has always been, but he would not at- tempt to control the presidentlal as- plrations of a member of his cabinet. Mr, Cortelyou has his confidence and regard and the president would not offer the slightest objection to the latter if Mr. Taft cannot make good with the people of the country and if Mr. Cortelyou can, all well and good with the president.

Vienna, Nov. 18—The Neues Wei- ner Journal asserts that Prince Arnult of Bavaria, whose -death three days ago was officially stated to have re- sulted from pneumonia, died from a sword wound received in a duel with the Duke of Genoa, brother of ex- Queen Margareta of Italy. The duel, it is declared, was fought at Murano, near Venice. |INSANE MAN WINS FORTUNE { Plunged on Stock Market While Men- tally Deranged, New York, Nov., 18—Just before Joseph Ullman, a bookmaker and race track gambler, became mentally un- balanced last spring he plunged into the stock market with an abandon that his frlends now belleve was the result of his derangement, but which has brought to him, it is said, greater wealth than he ever hefore possessed. Ullman last winter capitalized and attempted to manage the San Carlo Grand Opera company. It was while this organization was on tour that he first showed ‘symptoms of insanity. Exactly how much he has made it is impossible to say at the present time, One of his most intimate friends ex- pressed the opinion that Ullman’s stay In an insane asylum will have netted him at least half a million dol- lars and the figures may be larger, When Ullman had so far recovered that it was thought safe to ask him about his business affairs he said he had. no recollection of having gone into the market. Little by little, how- ever, his memory returned to him and he began to give assistance to those who were endeavoring to untangle the skein of his financial affairs. ON THE GRIDIRON.
