THE BEMIDJI BOAT CLUB | ORGANIZED LAST NIGHT | | { Laudable Organization Is Started with | Twenfy-five Charter Members— ‘i Dr. Palmer, Commodore. i § About twenty-five local launch | enthusiasts gathered last evening in | the Tobby of the Markham hotel in | this city and formed an organization [to be known as the Bemidjt Boat | Club, tofill a much-felt want in this | vicinity. : E. H- Jerrard, D. D. Miller and Dr. Palmer, a committee appoint ed Men, Was Instantly Killed Death Cau The Crookston Journal of yester- day evening contains the following particulars of the terrible manner in which Albert Harris was killed at Devils Lake, N. D, yesterday morning. A. E. Harris of this city is a brother of Albert Harris, ard could obtain no particulars yesterday of how the accident occurred, and he went to Crookston yesterday after- noon. The Journal affair: says of the sad “This entire community was ter- ribly shocked this morning upon receipt of the telegram that Albert Harris, son of Mr. and Mrs. T. A. Harris, had been instantly killed in the Great Northern yards at Devils Lake. Mr. Harris was day yard- master and stepped between the cars to pull a coupling pin. He missed his footing, fell, and three cars passed over his body before the engine was stopped. Death was in- stantaneous. The accident hap. pened shortly after 8 o’clock this morning. *‘Albert Harris grew to manhood in* Crookston. He was a big hearted, young man and wias one of the most pcpalar young men in this city. “He left for Devils Lake nearly two yearsago and was advancing rapidly in the service, being a most capable and trusted employe and his sudden death brings to an abrupt close a successful career in railroad- ing. “During his residence here de- ceased was a prominent member of generous, public spirited ! FORTY CENTS PER MONTH BROTHER OF A. E. HARRIS MEETS HORRIBLE DEATH Albert Harris, One of Crookston’s Most Popular Young at Devils Lake Yesterday.— ses Sorrow. the Crookston Fire department, was a valued member of the first running team the department had and was foreman of the department, and later assistant chief under Chief Morris for several years. “He was one of the hardest work- {ing and most popular members of the department, absolutely fearless, but‘ alaways cool and self possessed.- He leaves a widow but no children, andis survived by his parents and a large family of brothers and sisters. Definite ar- rangements will not be made for the funeral till word has been received from his brother, Bruce Harris, wbo is supposed to be at Medicine Hat. The remains may arrive tomorrow morning. and will be here certainly by Saturday even- ing. “In their terrible affliction the members of the stricken family have the most profound sympathy of the entire community.” [The news editor of the Pioneer enjoyed an intimate acquaintance with Albert Harris for the past fifteen years; and we knew him as one of the truest, most generous young men with whom we were ever associated. The hundreds of Crookston people who knew and liked Albert (whose ‘“nick name” was “Ole”) will be stricken with sorrow; and his parents and his brothers will certainly be sorely stricken by his sudden taking off. *“Ole” was one of nature’s noblemen, and his memory will ever be revered by the writer. ] | | | DR. G. M. PALMER, | Commodore Bemidji Boat Club. ‘a week ago todraw up a constitution, | submitted a constitution and by-laws which were adopted. Under the new constitution the following officers were elected: Dr. | G. M. Palmer, commodore; Floyd Brown, vice commodore; H. E. Reynolds, secretary; D. D. Miller, | treasurer; Charles Warfield, measurer: |and E. A. Barker, F.S. Lycan, E. H. | Jerrard, L. G. Crothers and L. F. | Frost were elected a board of direct- ors for the coming season. C. C. Collins, E. H. Jerrard and {Floyd Brown were appointed a | committee to select a pennant to be carried on the boats by members of the club. The Bemidji Boat Club will con- | struct about ten landings at differeat points on the shores of Lake Bemidji so that boats of all sizes can land | at the many picnic grounds in this vicinity. The Beltrami Electric Light & | Power company, which operates the {big power.dam nn the Mississippi | river five miles east of this city, will furnish the material and the boat club the men to dynamite the rapids and clear the channel in the Missis- | sippi river just below the outlet from | Lake Bemidji, thus forming a clear ‘ way from the lake to the dam, nine | miles down river. The club also plans to remove the ! sand bar in the river between Lakes | Bemidji and Irving and, by using a steam dredge and a heavy iron rail, to drag out the weeds on the bottom along the lakeshore. The members intend to co-operate with the city officials and the Bemidji Improve- ful lakeshore driveway in a clean and pretty condition.
