The Great Band Competition will gather all the best bands of Western Canada and North-Western States in the keenest competition, and the presence of the celebrated Innes Orchestral Band, of New York, and the 91st Highlanders’ Band will afford daily the finest band music that the world: could offer. The Military Tattoo in connec- tion with the sensational representa- tion of historical siege of Saragossa in the Peninsular War, with. nearly 500 troops representing British, Ger- man, Spanish and French troops en- gaged will be not only one of the most emotional, but thrillingly spectacular scenes ever presented in in Canada. With a splendid Horse and Cattle Exhibit, keen racing by the - fastest horses ever brought to Winnepeg, and complete displays in every de- partment, the Winnepeg Exhibition, July 11-17, promises to exceed all other previous Exhibitions. A number of ‘Bemidji people are planning on-attending the Winnipeg Exhibition, as some of them have already visited the ‘“show,” and unhesitatingly pronounce it the best thing of the kind on the American continent, with the possible excep- tion of the Minnesota State Fair. "And those who have not visited the metropolis of Western Canada should do so if possible, as the trip is well worth while, exclusive of the exposition. Prince Hal Gces to Canada. It is the intention of William Begs- ley and Harry Gunsalus, owners of Prince Hal, the local pacer, to take the speedy horse to the race meets which will be held in Portage La- Prairie and Winnepeg during the month of July and enter him in the free for-all races at those places. There will be two race meets at Portage LaPrairie, one July 1, 2, 3 and 4 and one begining July 10. Prince Hal will -be entered in the our Clearance Sale.

There is no doubt but Prince Hal is very fast; but in the races held here last Sundav he was the victim of several accidents which prevented his showing his true speed. Messrs. Begsley and Gunsalus hope that everything will go all right up in Canada, and that they will be given an opportunity to show that Hal can throw the dust in the eyes of any of the horses up there.

The Coliseum band will be in attendance and there will be skating befare and after the race, which will be called at 9:30 o’clock. The dis- tance of. the race is one mile. “LID" HAS BEEN GLAPPED ON TIGHT AT KELLIHER Mayor Pfund Says the ““Lid” Is on Tight, and Violators Will Be Prosecuted.

Thé cause for the sudden clappjng on of the lid is unknown at present, nor would Mayor Pfund enlighten tbose inquiring the reason. . “The lid is on to stay, and the state law will be enforced so that there will be no leaks,” was the only statement he would make., Ibehtson’s candidacy Being Well Received.
