During the intermission between halves several members of the basketball squad gave exhibition relay race, which was exciting. When the teams lined up for the second half, Dwyer went in for Shaunon, on the High School team, but the second team remained as at first.

Will Skate Again. Harry Carpenter of Crookston and Francis LeBeau of Duluth, who skated three roller races in this city during the past week, two of which were won by Carpenter, will prob- ably skate again in the near future. The Crookston Times says of the two skaters: “LeBeau accompanied Carpenter to Crookston this morning and today they made arrangements to skate a series of races in the Crookston rink. The rink at Bemidji is much smaller than the rink here and LeBeau claims that he is handicapped on that rink. They will skate in Crooks- ton Monday, Tuesday and Wednes- day for a purse of $50.00, $25.00 to be put up by each man and the winner to take all the money. If Carpenter wins this race he will then go to Duluth and race LeBeau on his home rink. Will-Probably Not Rebuild. Hibbing, Dec. 6.—The citizens of Hibbing are much concerned over the possibility that the Miles - hotel, burned to the ground last Friday, will not be rebuilt. ~ Mr. Miles has not definitely determined that he will not rebuild, but he has placed the lots on the market, and if he can dispose of them he will close out all of his interests .in Hibbing. There are five lots in the block and the price asked is $40,000. The corner is the most prominent in town and if the hotel is not rebuilt the city will suffer severely in appearance. Mr. Miles, in any event, will do nothing’about rebuilding until spring, If he has net disposed of the property by that time, his present intention is_to erect a 125-room, modern fireproof hotel. " M. D. Stoner returned last even- ing from a business trip to Walker, where he went to prepare the power plant at that place for shipment to Spoon be used in the new elec- tric hzhung pml that place.

The Hotel Burroughs, the elegant new hostelry located in the Thome & Mayer brick block, corner Minne- sota avenue and Second street, was formally opened to the public this evening, with an elaborate dinner which will be served to the public until 10 o’clock = Professor Thomas Symington’s Bemidji orchestra will furnish music all the evening, and there will be every attention given to those who attend the opening, which is open to the public. H. P. Burroughs, who has con- ducted the City Restaurant in this city for the last three years, is pro- prietor of the new hotel, and he has spared no pains or expense to make the Burroughs Hotel second to none in this part of the state. The Hotel Burroughs will be run on the Europeon plan, with all the accessories necessary for conducting a thoroughly up-to-date establish- ment. The hotel” occupies the greater portion of the Thome & Mayer block. The entrance to the office is located on Second street, the corner of the building being used by Thome & Mayer for a refresh- ment parlor. The office is large and commodious and fully equipped for the convenience of the guests. On the first floor there is also a dining room, and lunch room and kitchen. In the basement is located the laundry and two large sample| rooms. On the second and third floors are the sleeping rooms, nearly all of which are equipped with baths. Mr. Burroughs has spent a large sum of money in furnishing the hotel as a first class hostelry, and he has also engaged the very best help to assist him in conducting the hotel. ‘Amos Ward of Minneapolis has been engaged as the head chef of the hotel. He came here highly recommended as a cook. Miss Smith of Minneapolis will act as head waitress and have charge of the dinnin room. Ben Lyons, who was employed by Mr. Burroughs in the City Restaur- ant, will officiate as day clerk, and Erton Geil will be behind the desk nights, while H. P. Burroughs will have personal charge of the entire building. Court at Grand Rapids. Grand Rapids, Dec. 7.—(Special to Pioneer.)—The December term of court for Itasca county convened here Tuesday morning, Marshall A judge of the Fifteenth Judicial district, presiding, The grand jury was called and charged, after which the preliminary call of the calendar was and disposed of. Spooner, taken up The matter of hearing petltlons for naturalization papers was the next taken up, and twenty of such petitions were granted. Up to date the grand jury has lows: Against Peter D’Aupon, charged with grand larceny in the second degree. Against Frank Jones, charged with grand larceny in the second degree. Against Charles Webster, charged with falsely impersonating a public officer. Each of the defendants in the above-named indictments were ar- arrainged and entered pleas of not guilty. The first civil case on the calen- der which was taken up was that of Ceorge T. Robbinson, mayor of Big Falls, against J. E. Everton & Son of Deer River. This was an action torecover on a promissory note, and the defendants set up two notes in their favor as counter claims. The jury in that case retired Thurs- day noon, and Friday morning came in, returning a vertict for the defendants in the sum of $286.64. The next jury case on the calen- dar was that of J. Einerson ' Green- field, et al vs. Dunn & Marshall, being an action to recoger for cedar poles alleged to have been converted by the defendant. Before the plaintiff finished his testimony the action was dismissed on account of the absence of a witness, whose testimony was deemed necessary in order to proceed with the trial. The case of Henry Toibit against John Main was ontrial yesterday. This is an action on a promissory note, and the defendant claims in defense that the note has been paid. The Insurance Habit. “Some men are strangely moved by the possession of a life insurance policy”” said an agent of the New York Life to a press representative today. “Thirteen years ago,” he continued, “I induced a man then aged thirty-nine to sign an_applica- tion for $2,000. No sooner had he received the policy than he wanted,| more, and a second policy tor $3,- 000, was issued to him without fur- ther examination. Seven years later I secured his application for $5,000, and he no sooner got this than he wanted $5,000 more.
