4 S — THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER PUBLISHED NVERY AFTHRNOON, BEMIDJI PIONEER PUBLISHING CO. By CLYDE J.'PRYOR. ntered in the postoffice at Bemidji. Minn., second class matter. SUBSCRIPTION---$5.00 PER ANNUM e e CAUSTIC COMMENT. [A. G. Rutledge.] The matchmaker doesn’t always “set the world on fire.” Some women resemble angels only because they are continually “har- ping.” The “ship of state” will be pleased to hear that the new tariff bill reduces the tariff on anchors half a cent a pound. The treasury department is to change the designs on the green- backs. Most of us, however, will continue to have the same designs on them, however. According_to a recent message, Massachusetts is going to supply its 100,000 spinsters with farms. Min- nesota might do the same thing, so that a few estimable spinsters we wot of could have a chance at one kind ot husbandry, at least. You have got to place some de- pendence upon yourself, 1n this old world of ours. - The man who goes around looking for advice is liable to find himself in the position of the man who becomes so interested in looking over the time table that he missed the train. "This from Charles Mitchell, the managing editor, in the Duluth News-Tribune: “Bemidji, having annexed the Pioneer Press, must put Doc Rutledge in charge if it wants a real newspaper.”” Now, really, Charley, we didn’t expect this of of you. We were simply having a little fun with Brother Ives, “that is all. ARMED WITH BOMBS, PISTGLS AND SHOTGUN Insane Man Runs Amuck al Aurora, . Aurora, 1L, April 9.—John Ander- #on, a plumber whose mind had been affected, became suddenly violent and, armed with two pistols, a shotgun and three bombs, which he fastened to his person by means of a harness, started out to kill the inhabitants of a city block in which he said malicious gossip concerning himself had been circulated. He killed Mrs. John Mec- Vicker, whom he shot through the heart as she ran toward the room where her children were 'playing; ‘wounded her husband, John McVick- er, and Mrs. John Belford and commit- ted suicide by blowing off his head with the shotgun. Anderson’s actions and his arma- ment of bombs and revolvers terror- ized residents of the entire square which he had announced his intention of laying waste. His first stop was at the home of Mrs., John McVicker, probably his oldest and best friend. Mrs. McVicker and her husband had repeatedly befriended Anderson, who was a widower. They had received him at their home and had nursed him when ill. With a pistol in each hand Anderson began firing. ‘The first bul- let grazed Mr. McVicker’s scalp. Mrs. McVicker ran toward the kitchen, ‘where her four children were playing, to protect them. She fell dead across the thresheld with a bullet through her heart. Anderson then proceeded to the home of John Belford, where he wounded Mrs. Belford and commit- ted suicide. HIS DOUGH WOULD NOT RISE| Chief Baker on Steamer Mariposa Jumps Into the Sea. . San Franclsco, April 9.—“If that bread don’t rise I'll jump into the sea,” M. H. Stuhme, baker on board the steamer Mariposa, is reported ta have said shortly before he disap peared from the deck of the Mariposa on March 31 while the vessel was plowing through the tropic seas on the route from Tahita to San Fran- cisco. ‘When the Mariposa arrived in port the officers reported the disappear ance of Stuhme and the circumstances surrounding seem to indicate that, nervous, worried and exasperated be- cause his dough would not rise, the chief baker committed suicide. For Statewide Prohibition. .~ Jefferson City, Mo., April 9.—The | lower house of the Missouri general assembly adopted the minority report recommending favorably the statewide prohihition constitutional amendment. The amendment is being considered for passage. A tax feature has -been added to it. 3 Woltskin makes the best banjo parchment. - s A . 1 TOEXPEL CASTRO Ex-President of Venezuela Must Quit Martinique. MIGHT FOMENT A REVOLT Actlon of French Government Follows a Cablegram From Its Ambassador at Washington Telling of His Con- ference With Secretary of State Knox—Castro Taken Suddenly III at Fort de France. Paris, April J.—The French govern- ment has decided to expel Cipriano Castro, the. former president of Ven- ezuela, from the French -island of Martinique on the ground that his presence there is likely to foment a revolution in Venezuela. This decision followed considera- tion of a cablegram from M. Jusse- rand, the French ambassador at Wash- ington, giving an account of his con- ference with Secretary of State Knox. The decree of expulsion will be communicated to Castro immediately through the prefect of Fort de France, where Castro now is. It is presumed here that the govern- ment of the United States, which in- itiated the exchanges with foreign * CYPRIANO CASTRO. governments to prevent Castro from establishing headquartters close to the Venezuelan coast, will prevent him making his way to the mainland on 2 sailing vessel. This course will leave Castro the alternative of taking refuge on one of the Danish West In- dia islands or returning to Europe. The French line steamer Versailles touches at Fort de France April 10 on her way back to Europe. The Temps says that Great Britain ‘was consulted before the decision to expel Castro from Martinique was taken and the ILiberte declares the French government had certain infor- mation regarding Castro’s political and military plans that rendered his expulsion advisable. HIS CONDITION - IS GRAVE Castro Becomes Suddenly IIl at Fort de France. Fort de France, Martinique, April .). —Shortly after returning from a drive through Fort de France Cipriano Cas- tro became suddenly ill. He com- plained of severe pain in the abdomen and it was 'apparent that he suffered greatly. The scar left by the opera- tion performed in Berlin has opened for a distance of several centimetres and his condition undoubtedly is grave, The former president of Venezuela was informed of the decision of the French government to expel him from Martinique. He appeared not to be- lieve the news. TOUCHES NEW HIGH POINT May Wheat Goes to $1.2634, but Closes a Cent Less. Chicago, April )—May wheat again established a new high record, touch- ing $1.263¢, but closing over a cent off from this. July contracts, in which the bulk of trading is done, advanced to $1.127%.

Savings Bank and Trust company, was given five years in the penitentiary after the jury had deliberated thirty minutes.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured by local applications as they cannot reach the diseased portion ‘of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitulional remedies. Deafness is caused v an inflamed condition of the mucous lin- ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is Inflamed you have a rumbling sound or im- rfect heating, and when it s entirely closed eafness is the result, and unless the inflam- mation can be taken out_and this tube re- stored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever: nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mncous surfaces ‘We willgive One ‘Hundred Dollars for any case ofrDB‘tn_gss {caused by cutlr&‘) that can not be cured all's Oalarrh re, Send for eircutars, free.

Boston, April 9.—The hurricane from the Middle West, passing over the St. Lawrence river, dragged an air current across New England at velocities ranging from fifty to ninety. two miles an hour. Such a gale has not been experienced in this vicinity in many years. 5 The highest wind velocity that has been reported in New England for sixteen years was reported from the Blue Hill observatory, when the reg: Ister recorded = ninety-two miles an hour. Only once before dn the twenty five years’ histery of ti® observatory has this speed been..exceeded. In 1893 100 miles an hour was regis tered. Remembering a similar gale of al most a year ago many citizens of Chel sea became almost panic stricker when another fire broke out in the stricken cit¥, but the department pre- vented heavy damage.

St. Petersburg, April ~.—The retire- ment of foreign Minister Iswolsky, as a result of the defeat to Russian diplo- macy in the settlement of the difficui- ties between Austria-Hungary and Servia, is regarded here as a certainty.

SIX CITIES SEND HELP Destructive Blaze In Tenement Sec- tion of Manchester, N. H., Brought Under Control Only After Assist: ance Arrives From Surrounding Towns—High Wind Adds to the Serlousness of the Situation. Manchester, N. H., April 9.—The tenement house district of the south- ern section of the city, covering an area of nearly a square mile and occu- pied mainly by foreigners employed in the cotton mills and shoe factories, ‘was swept by one of the most disas- irous fires that ever threatened this city. Within two hours fifty buildings had been destroyed or damaged in the area from EIm street eastward to Beach street and from Auburn street north to Cedar. A gale was blowing and very soon after the outbreak help was called for from the nearby cities of Concord, Nashua, Lovell, Portsmouth, Dover and Rochester. With the aid of the firemen thus summoned the conflagra- tion was brought under control. The loss is estimated at $100,000. Fully 2,000 persons were rendered homeless, Diamonds in Southwest Africa. Berlin, April 9.—The latest inteli- gence from German Southwest Africa says the discoveri¥s of diamonds at Luderitz Bay are more important than was at first supposed.
