Sheriff Hazen had been given information that seemed very reliable that Bakke was at a point north of Ely, the descrip- tion of the man which was sent to the shenff tallying exactly with Bakke’s appearance; but when Mr. Hazen reached the man, after a difficult trip, it was found that he was not Bakke, and the trip had been a useless one.

Charles Perkins, owner. and pub- § lisher of the Bagley Independent, came to the city this morning from Tenstrike, where he spent Christmas at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Gustafson, to whom he is related. Mr. Perkins returned to his home at Bagley this afternoon. Murray B. Humes, chief clerk at the Cass Lake U. S. land office, was in the city Saturday and Sunday, spending the Christmas with Mrs. Humes and their daughter, Dorothy. Murray tells of the revival of com- mercial activity at Cass Lake be- cause of the building of the Soo rail-| way into that village, and the real progressiveness of the citizens generally of the Iland office town. Murray is a firm friend of Cass Lake and her people, and his friends here only like to joke him occasionally about his loyalty to our eastern neighbor. His loyalty is of the kind that Cass Lake folks should appreciate, as that is the kind of “boosting” that makes communities great. “Poor Lo” gets little sympathy in the saloons of this city, these days, and the places where he was wont to bask in the heat occasionally have closed their doors on the red man or any person having Indian blood coursing through his veins. The saloon men of Bemidji have had |7 large placards printed, which are posted in a conspicuous place, for- bidding the buying or selling of liquor to persons of Indian blood; : and all dealers have agreedto sell no liquor to any person unless they are absolutely certain that the per- son desiring the liquor is not of Indian blood. This co-operation on the part of the liquor dealers to assist the federal authorities in stop- |} ping the sale of liquor to Indians will in a great measure have much to do with the prolongation of the liquor traffic in Bemidji. Did He Refuse? They were alone In the conservatory. He turned to ber. His voice was low. but passionate. “You know,” he said, “why 1 have asked you to come here. Will you be| my wife?” She looked at him intently. “No,” she answered, and she uttered | } the monosyllable as if she loved it. No doubt she espected him to reel and clutch at something, but he did nothing of the sort. “Very well,” he briskly said. “That’s all I want to know. Shall we go in and finish our dance?” She stared at him in wonder. “Are—aren't you hurt by my refusal? Don’t you intend to do something des- | ] perate?" “Desperate? Certainly not—unless you call tackling the lobster salad des- perate.” Her pride was sorely wounded. She had meant to hurt him. It would have been a proof of her power. Now she hungered for revenge. -There was only one way to get even with him. “George,” she said, “I have reconsid- | ] ered my decision. 1 will be your wife. And the two scrawny rubber plant¢ and the three yellow palms quivered with suppressed laughter.—Cleveland IMMENSE DAMAGE RzCl_ T Southwest Europe Swept by Destruc- tive Storms and Floods. Paris, Dec. 27.—All Southwest Eu- rope has been swept by destructive storms and floods. In Southwest France forests were devastated, build- ings were demolished and communi- cation interrupted. Belgium suffered heavily from the wind and flood, many factories being forced to close on ac- count of the inundations, - Madrid reported the most disastrous floods in fifty years. Many towns suf- fered serious damage, but no loss of life is reported. The rivers of Portu- gal were raging torrents from an ex- traordinary rainfall. Although the material ‘damage is considerable no loss of life has been reported. The gas works at Oporto were in- undated and the entire city is in dark- ness. All the small craft moored in the Douro river were swept out to sea by the unusually strong current and the fate of the mariners is un- known. Mixed varieties, treated Broken Back Results in Death.
