VOLUME 7. NUMBER 149. BEMIDJI, MINNESOTA, MONDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 11, 1909. PITTSBURG WINS. Detroit, Oct, 11.—(Special to Pioneer.) —With the series of base- ball games for the world’s championship between Detroit and. Pitts- burg a tie (each having won a game at Pittsburg), the scene of battle was shifted to Detroit today, and an immense crowd turned out to see the opening game here, many being unable to secure entrance to Bennet park, and went away disgruntled, swearing they would come back early in the evening and stay all night in order to get a seat for tomorrow’s game. ‘Both Detroit and Pittsburg were on their mettle today, and every player on each side was out to win, The positions and batting order was as follows: Detroit—D. Jones If, Bush ss, Cotb rf, Crawford cf, Delehanty 2b, Morarity 3b, T. Jones 1b, Schmidt ¢, Summers, Wallets and ‘Works p. Pittsburg—Byrne 3b, Leach cf, Clarke If, Wagner ss, Miller 2b, Abstein 1b, Wilson rf, Gibson ¢, Maddox p. Umpires—O’Laughlin and Johnstone. THE SCORE. Detroit.. Pittsburg Hortense Neilson, In‘‘A Doll’s House. To lovers of drama, Hortense Neilsen’s engagement here Tuesday evening only, at City Opera House, | will be ot more than usual interest, for she will present Henrik Ibson’s masterpiece, A Doll’s House,” which has created more wide-spread discussions than all of Ibsen’s plays. “A Doll’s House” is perhaps the most human and appealing.- The story of the husband who makes his wife a plaything, and a child whose selfish egotism allows him only to see the danger for himself, when he finds that the deception she has committed for himself may bring the family into disgrace, is one of ab- sorbing interest. Hortense Neilsen is said to play Nora sublimely. She is physically the doll wife in appearanne and her development of the role from the lighter scene of the first act, to the tremenduous situations of the play, closes with so fine a piece of acting that New York and Chicago refuses to allow “A Doll's House” to be withdrawn. No other actors have ever offered it in this country for more than a few successive performances. Under the direction of C. A. Quintard, Hortense is supported by Norval pany and carries a complete pro- duction. This is without doubt the greatest dramatic offer that will appear here this season. Reports come to us that capa- city houses are being played nightly, and it would not be amiss to advise our theater patrons to secure seats as early as possible.

Crouch was the scene of a lively time Saturday evening, when about fifteen young people took possession and proceeded to enjoy themselves, the occasion beinga Farewell Sur- prise Party to Miss Genevieve Crouch, who will go, with her par- ents to Los Angeles, Cal, to make her home. T The evening was spent in pulling candy, and games, after which a dainty lunch was served. The young people left ata late hour for their homes, after present- ing, Miss Genevieve with a beauti- fully engraved watch fob.

GCOMMENDS THE EDITOR ~ FOR REPORTS OF GOURT Attorney General Simpson Wril_ec Con- cerning Indictments Returned Last Spring and Withheld. . When the grand jury was in ses- sion last spring, the Pioneer was quite severely censured by some of its well-meaning friends for not pub- lishing as a fact that several county officers had been indicted, our censors referring us to the fact that- some twin city papers were publishing the fact of the indict- ments and we should do likewise. The Pioneer at the time main- tained that if indictments had been returned, that fact had not been made public and we had no infor- m’ation in the matter; and we did not publish any of the rumors which were alleged as facts in some other papers. That our stand in this matter was well taken is attested by the follow- ing letter from Attorney General Simpson: “Office of the Attorney General “St Paul. *“Oct. 7, 1909. “Dr. A. G.

My dear ‘Doc’—In regard to the dismissal of those indictments, now that the same is a matter of public kuowledge, I want to acknowledge on behalf of this office your failure to publish the fact of their being re- turned into court, and the fact that you thereby observed the law of this state. Underall the circumstances it placed you in a most embarrass- ing position, and I think that this acknowledgement is therefore due you. “My kindest regardsto you person- ally, and I beg to remain “Yours truly, “George Simpson.” Mr. and Mrs. Lindgrenat Brinkman Tonight.

Blakeley, the Farley logger, has closed a contract with the Wild Rice Lumber company of Ada, to cut some $30,000,000 feet of timber, principally white pine, at a point about twelve miles west of Mallard, near the Itasca State Park. This timber will be banked on the Wild Rice river and driven to Ada next spring, to be sawed in the double-cut band sawmill at that place. Mr. Blakeley has already estab- lished camps at the scene of his logging and has a logging outfit and material which will be taken to Mallard over the logging road which connects with the Great Northern pear Shevlin. The Crookston Lumber company bas let alarge number of sub-con- tracts for logging in different parts of this section of the state, among which will be many ‘millions bf feet that will be cut near the Vil- lage of Kelliher and the Village of Fowlds.

All these-operations mean much to Bemidji and the surrounding country, and times will be lively in the towns adjacent to these logging camps. Subscribe For The Pioneer. T. J. Crane & Co.
