New York, May 21.—When told that his death was certain as a result of hydrophobia William H. Marsh, an aged wealthy man, calmly turned away with the remark that he would be ready when the summons came. With- out a tremor he walked down the steps of the Pasteur institute, stepped into his carriage and started for his home in Brooklyn. “You waited too long,” the surgeons at the institute told him after they had made their examination. “Our treatment cannot help you. You have hydrophobia.” There was not a falter in his voice or a change in his face as he heard them. “How much time do you give me?” he asked. “Not long,” said the physician. “Probably not more than four or five days.” “Well,” he said, “if I have to go I cap face it. My business is in shape and a day or two more will see it all Victim of gettled. "1 had Tather die Some other way, but T am not afraid.” Mr. Marsh treated the wounds of his pet spaniel, which had been bitten by a strange dog. The spaniel licked his hand in gratitude and Mr. Marsh was infected through a small scratch on one of his fingers. The spaniel died of hydrophobia. Efforts to Settle Strike.

The graduating class of ‘the, city High Schoo] will give their Class Night exercises next Friday evening n the City Opera House. Music will be furnished by the high school chorus and quartet. The class will give their Class History, the. Class Prophecy, the Class Will, the Class Poem, and the Class Gifts, The latter part of the evening will be taken up by the presentation of "“The Merchant of Venice, Up-to Date.” This is a laughable modern ization of Shakespear’s greatst com- edy, “The Merchant of Venice.” The public is solemnly advised to tighten up their belts before witness- ing this comical farce, or they will split their sides laughing. The following short sketch of the play is of interest; In this play Shylock is a wealthy gambler, who became rich by betting on football games and renting “ponies” to football players, “who had no time to get their lessons in ‘any other way.” Like Shakespeare’s Shylack, he has several character- istics of the passionate Jew, Instead of demanding a pound of flesh, as in the original play, he demands that, if Antonio does not return the “pony” within four weeks, a pound of hair to be cut off nearest his (Antonio’s) brains should be the forfeit. Through neglect, the “pony” is not returned and Shylock demands the forfeiture of the bond great football game. In the darkest hour he is saved by the wit of his friend’s (Bassonio’s) sweetheart, Portio. For the purpose of purchasing a suitable memorial- of the Class of 1908, a small admission fee of twenty- five cents will be charged. The entire down-stairs will be reserved and the tickets will be on sale at the City Drug Store Wednesday There will be no extra charge for reserving the seats. The public is cordially invited to attend these exercisess’ . © 3 THE MINNESOTA CLUB AT SPOKANE DOING THINGS Will Give a “Gridiron” Dinner, at Which Some Surprises Will Be Sprung.

The recent withdrawal of a con- siderable portion of government land in Lake and St. Louis counties, with the possibility that it will be used for National forest 'reéerve, has taken from entry at the Duluth land district a large number of the timber claims in which people living in Bemidji and other parts of Bel- trami county are very much inter- ested. “ During the past two years quite a number of people living here have made filing on stone - and timber claims in the country northeast of Ely, where there has probably been as good timber claims as anywhere in the United States. In fact, locators have made a lot of money in securing these claims for applicants. Among the locators who have made that country is Nels Otterstad, who has located many people on claims in that vicinity. When the recent ruling was made withdrawing the lands mentioned Mr. Otterstad decided to go to visit the Duluth land office and also the territory involved in the order, Mr. Otterstad returned yesterday from. his visit to a point forty-five miles northeast of Ely and he reports that there are a very few claims left In that country which was not effected by the recent order. Among the lands “which are effected by the ruling and which are known to local people are the following: 3 % Town 64, ranges 2, 3, 4, 7, 8,9, 10; town 64, ranges 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 11 12, 14 and 15; town 65, ranges 5, 11, 12, 13, i4, 15 and 16; town 66, range 5. Married at Nymore. At the home of Charles Wrege, in Nymore, yesterday, Mr. John J. Junger and Miss Clara I, Becker were united in matrimony. Elder Thomas J. Martin officiated at the ceremony, which was per- formed in the presence of a few friends and relatives of the contract- ing parties. “BEMIDJI SHOULD BE PROUD OF HER COMPANY” Adjutant General of Michigan Pays High Compliment to the New Militia Organization. “Bemidji may well be proud of her infant militia company, the members of which are indeed making a sur- prising showing of efficiency in drill and military tactics. Although a little. more than a month old, the entire company drills like a veteran organization. Such was the declaration of Cap- tain Bell, adjutant of the Third Regiment of the Minnesota National Guards, who was present at the drill of Company K of Bemidji last even- ing. 2 Captain Bell was present at the assembling of the guards and was re- quested by Adam E. Otto, captain of the company, to inspect the arms, the equipments and also note the drill work, and he was urged to criticise, unsparingly, any defects that he might note. 5 The captain was evidently pleased and in addition to his remarks first quoted he gave a short address to the company, in which he told them that he was very well pleased with the appearance of the company and its officers. The captain spoke on the loyalty which the privates owed to the officers and also urged them to respect the United States uniforms. DEER RIVER WILL LIKELY PLAY HERE NEXT SUNDAY Manager Washburn Is Also Trying h : Arrange Games With the Coleraine Team. John Washburn, manager of the Bemidji base ball team, states that he is makinglarrangements with the Deer River team to play against Beinidji in this city next Sunday. While Mr. Washburn is not positive that the Deer River team will: play}: "MBEH GLMMS AFFEGTEB the locals at that time, he is reason- ably sure that they will accept his propgsition and. play against the Bemidji team Sunday. Mr. Washburn is also correspond- ing with the first team of Coleraine, and if Deer River does not play here on Sunday there is a possibility that the Coleraine team will play. Mr. Washburn is arranging for the Bemidji team to play a game at Coleraine on May 30, the two teams to be brought.to Bemidji to play a game here on Sunday, May 31, the day following decoration day. These arrangements have not been defi- nitely settled, but it 'is more than likely that Deer River will play here next Sunday and that Bemidji will play Coleraine the 30th and Coleraine be here on the 31st. Mr. Washburn is making every effort to give the people of this city a first-class ball team and with that end in view will keep on trying out new players until he gets what he wants. In this con- nection it is possible that another first-class pitcher will be secured to strengthen the team. Will Erect Summer Cottage. S. W. Boeing, the druggist who resides at Minto, N. D., has become enamoured of Bemidji’s summer at- tractions add will join the North Dakota coloney which has cottages on different parts of the lake shore. Mr. Boeing, has purchased 220 feet of lake shore front at Lavina from A. E. Voeler and will at once erect a cottage and will spend his summer vacations in this city. AGAINST CLASS ISSUES. Manufacturers’ Association Takes a Decided Stand. New York, May 21.—Following up the important action of its earlier ses- sions protesting against political agi- tation of a demogogic mature calcu- lated to set capital and labor at odds the National Association of Manufac- turers in annual convention here took & decided stand against the raising of class issues by the great political par- ties of the nation. This action was in the form of a resolution introduced by John Kirby of Dayton, 0., and worded as follows: “Resolved, That the president of this association be authorized and in- structed to select such members as he may deem proper to serve with him as a committee to represent this as- sociation before the national execu- tive committees of the two political parties and that he invite the co- operation of committees from other associations to the end that class declaration planks may be omitted from the platforms of both parties.” Close upon the heels of this move by the manufacturers came the taking on thefr part of a decided stand against the advance in freight rates, which the trunk lines of the country have announced to be impending. The manufacturers seek an amicable ad- Justment of the matter with the rail- roads, but failing that announce their intention of resisting the proposed advance in the -courts by process of injunction or otherwise.
