OCCIDENT FLOUR I ] You pay a few cents more per sack than for ordinary flour. But Occident is ‘The Bemidji friends of Charles Cutler (known to the sporting world during the past few years as “Kid” Cutler) will be pleased to’Jearn that the young giant is making a splen- did record in the wrestling arena. Cutler has been training diligently during the past three years and his improvementas a mat artist has been very marked, during the past year. ) During the past year Mr. Cutler has been “coming up” very fast and he has met and held his own with some of the best wrestlers in the country. Cutler’s rapid advance- ment has attracted the attention of Fraonk Gotch, the world’s champion wrestler, who has engaged him as bis training partner for all of his important bouts. A recent dispatch from Chicogo says of Gotch and Cutler: “Frank Gotch has engaged Charles ‘Kid’ Cutleras his training partner, while preparing for the champion- ship battle with Giovanni Raicevich, Nov. 9, at the coliseum. “Gotch was much impressed with the showing Cutler made in secur- ing a draw with Zbyszko, the Polish giant, Friday night at the coliseum. He has maintained that if Cutler had worked on the Pole’s legs, he might have secured a fall. “The training Cutler will receive B- F.

Five years ago Cutler was' marshal of Tenstrike. He was at that time a big, over-grown “kid.” He had ambitions to enter the prize ring and he fought several good fights in this vicinity. He was cleverand he defeated every man whom he met, among whom was Jack Parres. R g Cutler’s first defeat was at the bands of the “Kerry Kid,” of Superior. This fight was fought over at Cass Lake, and the referee, a Superior man, gave Cutler decid- edly the worst of it, holding him in the clinches so that the “kid” could hit Cutler at will. Since that time Cutler was with the John L. Sullivan company; and other traveling trqupes, with which he learned a whole lot. Jim Barry’s fight with Cutler took all of the “scrap” out of Cutler, Jim knocking him out. Since that time Cutler has devoted his attention to wrestling, with good results, Had Many Cravenettes. Chief Knox this forenoon became suspicious of a gentleman who had in his possession three cravenettes, which hehad,evidently by industrious hustling, “accumulated” within an hour, as he had none an hour pre- vious when he passed the time of day with the chief. The chief took the tall, light-com- plexioned gentleman to the city hall, there to await developments rela- tive to the real ownership of the coats. In the meantime, if you've lost a cravenette, it’s pretty certain to be found at the police headquarters. Bemidji a Good Market. Mrs. R. Neving, who with Mr Neving operates a fine dairy and agricultural farm at the Neving Dam, on the Clearwater river, north of Bagley, was a visitor in the city yes- terday, having brought in a quantity of butter and eggs for local people. Mrs. Neviig states that they have several fine cows and many chickens and that eggs and butter are the principal products of their place. Mrs. Neving comes to Bemidji once each month with these pro- ducts and finds a ready sale, at the very highest market price, for all that she can handle. Shot a Badger. John Colburn, a farmer living in the town of Frohn, brought to the city yesterday a large badger, which he was showing to Bemidji friends. Mr. Colburn stated that he had en- countered the animal, which is em- blematical of Wisconsin, near his home, seven and one-half miles east of Bemidji. He shot the badger; and hopes to have the animal mounted. A badger is a rare animal in this section, and Mr. Col- burn has a prize in the one he killed. Soo Contributions.

The offcr of the reception ccmmit- tee to make this arrangement was re- fused, the negroes saying that partici- pation in the-general welcome would be good enough for them. Mr. Taft's concurrence in President Roosevelt's Brownsville dzcision and his failure 50 far to recognize negrces in making appointments are given s the cause for the negroes’ refusal.

Belmont, for years a leader in the most exclusive circles of New York society, the mother of a duchess and the sister of a countess, has opened war upen the very set with which sho has always been affiliated. The cause is suffrage. Tn the current number of the North Americin Review sbe has contributed an article, stinging with sarcasm, en. titled “Women’s Right to Govern.” After a scathing attack on the drones of society she raises her voice for the peor and the misguided women and accuses the “immense moneyed cor- porations, the powerful liquor inter- ests of the conntry £nd the party ma- chines” of blecking women’s suffrage, which would protect her more unfor- tunate sisters.

New York, Nov. 2—As if it were that all America suffered-from one great thirst six large ocean liners and several smaller boats came hurrying Inte the port of New York during the last hours of October laden with champagnes, wines, brandy and liquor.

INCREASED ACTIVITY IN INCUSTRIAL FIELD Report of Bureau of Statistics of Commerce Department, Washington, Nov. 2—A largely in- creased activity in the industrial field is irdicated by the September figures of internal commerce as reported to the bureau of statistics of the depart- ment of commerce- and labor. The improvement is mest pronounced in the coal and iron trades. The lum- ber movements during the month were fairly heavy, though for some sectione September reports show slight dcereases from the larger move- ments recerded for the earlier months. The market receipts of agricuitural products, including grain, rice and cotton, on the whole show a normal development. The movement of live stock, and particularly of meat prod- ucts, at’ principal packing centers, mainiy on account of the smaller ex- port demand, shows a more stationary condition. The ic activity of the railways during the mowth was con- siderahly larger than a year ago. ‘While the number of idle cars at the end of the month had not yet disap- peared a rapidly growing car shortaga began to manifest itself, which is like- ly to interfere to seme extent with the movement of the great staples dur- ing the rest of the year.
