Many Bemidji people are looking forward with anticipated pleasure to the excursion to Red Lake which will be given under the aus- picés of the Minneapolis, Red Lake & Manitoba Railway company, next Sunday, when a special train will leave. Bemidji for Redby, and from that place a crowd will be taken to most any point desired on the shores-of the famous Red Lake, the largest body of fresh water wholly within the boundaries of the United States. The Red Lake railroad people have given a previous excursion this year, and the affair was very well patronized, the people of the city and many transcients who were Bemidji guests at that time taking advantage of the opportunity to visit one -of the most interesting places in the entire state. That excursion was so well enjoyed that the management of the railroad has been prevailed upon to run another excursion. The special train to Redby will leave Bemidji at 9:30 a. m., and returning from Red Lake will arrive in Bemidji at about 9 o’clock in the evening. The new gasoline boat which the railway company owns and which is operated on Red Lake, will be at the disposal of the excursionists, and. where the crowd will be taken depends upon the weather. Should the lake be stormy, it is more than likely that but a short trip will be taken on the boat. If the weather is fair, the crowd will be taken to any point on the lake desired. There are so many - interesting points to visit on this trip thatno one who can should miss the excur- sion. There is the old church and burial ground at Redby, where the Indians for years worshipped ac- cording to their aboriginal ideas; and the Indian agency, a short dis- tance up the shore from Redby is always a place of interest. -_The fare for the round trip from Bemidji is but $1.
