RECORD BREAKING “‘MERRY WIDOW” HAT ON PARADE **Sky Piece” of Generous Proportions Showed the Extreme of the Milliner’s Art. ‘!Good land, look at that hat,” said a retiring little man on Bemidji| avenue yesterday afternoon. | As a matter of fact he said more than that, but the editor j wouldn’t stand for it. Anyway, everybody who wasn't | looking looked and saw it, It Titanic, monumental, mastadonic,“ anything big. It was of a Merry| Widow extraction and seemed to be | was | the biggest type of the whole; species. It was blue, all blue, feathers sev- eral square feet of straw and what-| ever else thereis to a hat. The| insignificant other little bonnets on the street looked like a mon:zrel last | year’s runabout alongside of a this| year’s touring car. g The - thing rigged ship. looked There were six or seven feathers trimmed to starboard and bellying like colored canvas in the fresh breeze. And say, that woman was a skipper, some skipper. The way she beat up against tbat wind, tacking and trimming her feathers, was great, ripping—per- fect. When she turned a corner it looked as though everything was going by the board. It seemed a case of “cut away the wreckage and rig the weather canvas.” Not for a miuute, however. Although the old ship did ship a little water through her lee scuppers when she rounded the buoy and it looked like a capsize, the skipper was there with the celery compound nerve and nursed the brig through the surf. A man with a plaid waistcoat hap-| pened to see it—the hat. He was willing to bet that Barney -Oldfield could run around the top and break| | the world’s record for circular tracks. “Roaring paddocks and drunken jockies,”” said Tom Newby, “‘but that like a full-| thing—thing, that thing, looks like a mile track with the grandstand in the'center. By George, I’ll buy for all who’ll drink.” There wasn’t a thing moving on Bemidji avenue except that hat. Traffic was suspended—blocked— paralyzed. A man would have been | a fool to drive a horse past that hat. There wouldn’t have been anything left of the rig but the whipstock. A lGreat Dane happened to see the “come-on-in-under the porte cochere” and streaked it up Third street so fast that the friction scorched his hair, After the hat finally got around the corner there was a small pro- cession of other Merry Widows. They were mild, domesticated types compared to the blue one. The ordinary thirty-six inches seemed a season old. A couple of poor females who don’t like actresses or the stage walked up and down Third street with winter bonnets on. Honestly they looked like frayed lace on a last year’s shirtwaist. It was a shame for those rank weeds to get into such a growth of luxurious flowers. “Panama” Was Good. “Panama,” the new comedy arama, in which Margaret Minton is being featured, played to a small but very appreciative audience at the City Opera House last night. ‘The company gave a very creditable performance, and apparently pleased | all present. Miss Minton is a very clever little actress, who has been seen on the local stage a number of times. Her support was very good, espec- ially Henry Gurvey as ‘“‘Dave,” Howard Brandon as “Maduro,” J. C. Kline as “Hez,” E. H. Nestell as “Lopez,” Miss Grace Shaw as “Samanthy” and Miss Elsie Thomaier as “Gertrude.” The company carries some beauti- | tul scenery, and taken all in all, it was a very satisfactory production and deserved much larger patronage. Miss Minton will return to Be- midji next season in a new comedy, “Taming A Tigress,” which is being written especially for her. “Three Weeks.” By Elinor Glyrne that caused sucha sensation in the East for sale at Ahercrombie’s.

[Contributed.] Alberta Dougherty,aged 5 months, 7 days, died at her home in Nymore last Tuesday of pneumonia. The funeral services were conducted from the congregational church at Nymore Thursday forenoon, Rev. Amunsen officidting. Interment was made in the® Greenwood ceme- tery. ““And oh, when aweary, may we be so Dlest, “And stnk like the innocent ¢hild to our rest, And feel ourselves clasped in the infinite breast.” Thus over a happy home the shadow of a little grave has tallen. This beautitul baby life was so prec- ious, so frought with blessing to those around her that she seemed a flower of Paradise permitted to bloom for a-brief season, by our side, then recalled to its nature skies, leaving the earth road dark and lonely indeed. And when the mes- senger came from the unseen lands to claim our sweet darling as His own. “She closed her eyes, we folded her little hands, And she looked so sweet and fair; We parted back her golden hair, We wove the rosebuds around her brow, Rosebuds white as the winter snow, Wrapt from head to foot in flowers, We sent her out of this world 0f ours.” Revival Services at Baptist Church. [Contributed.] The service last evening was well attended, being an extra large crowd for Monday night.The interest is in- creasing with each service and souls are inquiring the way of salvation. The subject of the evening: “Sins Blotted Out.” Mr. McKee is a strong preacher of the gospel. He has been driving home the truth in a sincere and faithful way, that sets men and women to thinking seriously on the problems concerning the soul.

Today is the twenty-seventh anni- versary of the cyclone which created much havoc at Sauk Rapids and St. Cloud, and killed eighty-nine peoplel | in that immediate vicinity. This fact was called to mind this | morning by E. H. Jerrard, who was a.resident of St. Cloud at the time of the cyclone, but was fortunately not injured, nor were any of the : members of his family. The St. Cloud cyclone is always referred to as one of the most de- & | structive ““wind-blows” in the history of the state. Gasoline Launches Getting Ready. Charles L. Bang is one of the residents of the city who have de- cided to enjoy life on Lake Bemidji and its tributaries, during the coming B | summer, and has purchased a fine ¥ | new gasoline launch. The boat is a Red Wing, 16-footer, and will afford much pleasure to its owner and his family. Eric Ives has purchased a new Graves engine from Jerrard & Cov- ington, for his boat, and will take his place among the leaders who own launches in this city. New Uniforms for Firemen. Thé members of the Bemidji fire department are contemplating the purchase of new uniforms, in'desire to get them in time for decoration day, so that they may present a neat appearance in the parade that day.

Washington, April 14.—Secretary Root had a long conference: at the state department with the Russian embassador, Baron Rosen, the feature of which was the Manchurian situa- tion, and in consequence when the ambassador left Washington for New York on his way to Russia he bore with him the last words of the Amer- ican state department on that impor- tant subject. The interview was em- inently satisfactory on both sides. From the Russian standpoint it was 'made plain to Secretary Root that the local Russians in Harbin were de- serving of support in their efforts to rehabilitate that important trade cen- AMBASSADOR ROSEN. ter and resume the execution of thé ambitious plans that had been formed by the Russian government for the de- velopment of the city before the war with Japan. Therefore, the objection of American Consul Fisher to full recognition of the Russian authority at Harbin was found to be based rather upon the form in which the local Russian officials proposed to at- tain their objects and not to the ob- jects themselves. Therefore it may be stated that there will be no further friction be- tween the American consul and the Russian government at Harbin over this incident. SIMPLE WASH CURES ECZEMA. Itching, Burning Skin Disease Routed Without Use of In- jurious Drugs. Great inventors often have been praised for surrendering the secrets of their discoveries. Pratically the same thing happened in the medical world in the case of Dr. Decatur D. Denni;‘, the eminent skin specialist of Chicago. 5 Dr. Denuis, in his own office prac- rice, discovered that pure vegetable oil of ‘wintergreen, properly mixed with other simple- remedies was practically a sure specific for Eczema, psoriasis, barber’s itch, salt rheum, and other itching skin diseases. But the oil of wintergreen. alone was found ineffective. It required other mild ingredients such as glycerine and thymol compounded with the wintergreen, to produce the real eczema cure. This compounded D. D. D. Pre- scription positively takes away the itch at once—the instant it is ap- plied to the skin:> This vegetable liquid does away with deleterious drugs so long used in an attempt to doctor the blood. Whereas modern science has determined that eczema is first and all the time a_ skin dis- ease. If you want to know more about the famous D. D. D. Prescription, callat our store.

REPORTED TO SENATE Bill to Regulate the Practice of (Granting Injunctions, CHANGES PRESENT METHOD Measure Intended to Meet Conditions Such as Have Recently Arisen in Railroad Cases in Minnesota, North Carolina and Other States. ‘Washington, April 14—Through Senator Overman (N. C.) the senate committee on judiciary favorably re- ported a bill regulating the practice of granting injunctions by United States courts restraining the enforcement of state statutes. The bill provides that no circuit or district gourt shall issue such temporary injunctions on the ground of unconstitutionality until testimony shall have been taken by three judges, at least two of whom shall be circuit judges. It requires five days’ notice of such proceeding to the governor and attorney general of the state involved unless in cases in which the loss of so-much time may work irreparable damage, when a tem- porary order may be issued. The bill also provides for a direct appeal of such cases to the supreme court of the TUnited States and gives them precedence there. It is intended to meet conditions such as have recently arisen in Minnesota, North Carolina and other states. OPPOSES THE ALDRICH BILL Twin City Deiegation Appears Before "House Committes. president of the National Bank of Commerce of Minneapolis, a member of a delegation representing some of the business interests of Minneapolis and St. Paul, appeared before the house committee on banking and cur- rency in opposition to the Aldrich bill in its present form. It would greatly curtail the ability of the banks, he said, to accommodate the borrowing public—the business men. 'They also objected, he said, to the La Follette amendment prohibiting bankers from lending money to any firm or corpora- interested, as this would take away from the directory of the banks the best elements in their community. He thought there should be no legis- lation at this time. D. 8. Culver, cashier of the German- American National bank of St. Paul; J. N. Jackson, representing the St. Paul Jobbers and Manufacturers’ as- sociation; F. B. Wells, representing the Minneapolis chamber of com- merce; George H. Partridge, repre- senting the jobbers and manufacturers of Minneapolis; George C. Powers, president of the Second National bank of St. Paul, and F. M. Prince, presi- dent of the First National bank of Minneapolis, all opposed the Aldrich bill. They said they saw no neces- sity for an emergency currency bill at the present time and favored a well considered permanent bill. RULED OUT OF NAVAL BILL Amendment Appropriating $100,000 for Promoting Arbitration. Washington, April 14.—Considera- tion of the naval appropriation bill ‘was resiimed in the house of represen- tatives. General debate having been concluded the reading of the measure for amendment was begun. No sooner was this 'done than Mr. Hobson (Ala.) offered an amendment appropriating $100,000 for promoting the cause of international arbitration, the sum to be expended by the executive commit- tee of the American group of the In- terparliamentary union. Mr. Hobson and Mr. Bartholdt (Mo.) spoke in sup- port of the amendment, but on a point of order by Mr. Foss (Ill) it was ruled out as not being germane to the bill An amendment by Mr. Foss to in- crease the payments of officers of the navy and marine corps and one by Mr. Bartholdt prohibiting naval or marine bands from accepting private employment for pay were ruled out on points of order.
