BERMAN EMPORIUM BEMIDJI, MINNESOTA, MILITIA HAVE RECEIVED ORDERS FOR TRIP T0 CAMP Company K Leaves Bemidji Sunday Afternoon, June 14th, and Goes to St. Paul via. Crookston, Thenece on Special to Lake City. Adam E. Otto, captain of Com- pany K, Bemidji’s militia company, has received a copy of the orders issued to the various militia com- panies that are members of the Third Infantry, M. N. G., which will go into camp at Lake City Camp Grounds on June 15th. The regiment will rendezvou at St. Paul on the morning of the 15th, and at 3:45 a. m., leave for Lake Cityin a special train, over the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway. Company K will leave Bemidji at 3:30 p. m. June 14th, and the mem- bers will occupy a stripped “T” sleeper, especially provided for the use of the company. - The train will arrive at Crookston at 7:15 p. m., and at 10:25 p. m. will leave over the Great Northern for St. Paul, ac- companied by Company I of Crooks- ton, arriving in St. Paul at 7:45 a. m., June 15th, when the two special sleepers will be attached to the C., M. & St. P. special train for trans- portation to Lake City. In connection with the encamp- ment, there will be many shooting contests. In addition to the regular annual shoot for the different quali- flcations, such as marksman, sharp- shooter, and expert, there will be this year several additional com- petitions. The Lake City Commer- cial Club is offering three medals, to be contested for under certain rules. While the Bemidji Company K has been organized but a short time, there are several men among the company who have had experience in shooting on the militia ranges, and it is possible that some of the prizes offered at Lake City will be brought back to Bemidji. The members of Company K are drilling every evening, and are rounding into condition to make a splendid showing at the camp. It is the intention of Captain Otto to send an advancv guard ‘of the company to Lake City next Wednes- day. The men who will go as members of this guard have not yet been selected, but their names will be announced Monday. MOORE HAS DESERTED THE WIFE WHO WAS TRUE TO HIM Promoter and Swindler Who “Buncoed” Several Local Parties, and Was Later Apprehended, Convicted, and l’ingd, Shows the Cur He Is. __The following, taken from -the Crookston Journal, will be read with interest by the people who were victimized by J. R. Moore, during the winter of 1906: “John R. Moore freed from jail thru the efforts of his wife, is said to have shown his gratitude by deserting the little woman who secured his release. In district court at Minneapolis his wife, Edna Moore, has asked for a divorce. John R. Moore was in the police toils in January, 1907. It was charged that he had fraudulently secured large sums of money. He was arrested in Minneapolis and taken to Bemidji, where he pleaded to a criminal charge and was fined $1,000. Iis wife in Minneapolis raised the money and secured the release of her busband, but it is said that she never saw him after his release. “In her divorce complaint Mrs. Moore says she is 28 years old and Moore is 32. Moore was probably the smooth. est articles in the ling of a promoter that ever hit this north country. He was one of the kind who sell the ocean, and realizes handsomely on the transaction, as a number of local capitalists can testify. It is said that when Moore left the court room in this city after pleading guilty, he was provided with a disguise that so effectually conceiled his identity that his own mother would not have recognized him. It is the general opfnion that Moore should have been given a much more severe sentence than was meeted out to him here. - The fact that he finaily plead guilty to one or two minor swindling operations un- doubtedly had much to do with the tempering of his sentence. As Moore’s wife furnished the money with which to pay his fine, the un- zrateful manner in which he treated his “better half” is all the more cur- like. Mclntosh vs. Bemidji, Tomerrow. The strong McIntosh baseball team will play against the Bemidj team at the local down-town park tomorrow afternoon at 3:30. Fred Baumgartner will pitch for Bemidji and “Louie” Roy will be behind the bat. The remainder of the team will line up about the same as last Sunday. Narveson, the “kid” phenom, will be on the mound for KcIntosh and the remainder of the visiting team will be strong. ‘The Bemidji band will furnish music prior to the game and while the game is being played. _— Good Season for Sauerkraut.
