H | { SECOND_ENTERTAINMENT FOR BENEFIT FIREMEN Will Be Given at City Opera House Wednesday Evening, January 19.—Good Company. The second number in the series of entertainments which are being given under the auspices of the Bemldji fire department to help swell the tournament fund will be given at the City Hall Wednesday evening of this week by the Eileen Maguire company, under the management of John Hutchinson. This company is composed of three entertainers, and is spoken of very highly. The leader of the company is Miss Eileen Maguire, the great con- tralto soloist of the City Temple London, England, who has won international fame as a soloist, and she is assisted by Miss Lucy Web- ling, entertainer, and Walter Mec- Raye, humorist. Of Miss Maguire, the Edinburg Scotsman says: “The young singer’s clear bird-like notes won approbation at once. Her, superb contralto voice thrilled the audience and her style was a revela- tion. The range and quality of her voice are quite out of the ordinary, whilst she shows evidence of the best training and natural voice pro- duction.” The Lundon Daily Telegraph says of Miss Lucy Webling: “She has the quaintest knack of telling stories in a way calculated to make the most serious laugh.” The Vancouver World says of Mr. McRaye: - “Mr. McRaye’s rendering of ‘Little Bateese’ was one of the daintiest and most humanizing bits of stagework we have seen for many a day.” The proceeds of these entertain- ments will be given to the fund for holding the firemen’s tournament in Bemidji next June, a very worthy object, and they should be liberally patronized. The firemen have more season as well as single tickets which they desire to sell, and the public should respond liberally. Royal Arch Degree for Three. Bemidji Chapter, R. A, M., ata meeting held last night, conferred the royal arch degree on three can- didates, the meeting being made a gathering of many Masons of note throughout this section, who were present to witness the work of the local chapter. Those who received the degree were Charles G. Mackovick and Herman Becker of Akeley, and F. H. Lambert of Bemidji. During the evening, a lunch was served, and the meeting is spoken of as having been one of the most successful in the history of the local chapter. A. W.

FIGHTS IN VAIN FOR LIFE North Dakotan Frozen to Death in a Well. Crosby, N. D., Jan. 18.—Frozen to death in a well, half a mile from the nearest neighbors, was the fate of Ole Peterson, a Dane, twelve miles south. Peterson was last seen mive by his neighbor Lorentson, who helped him dig a well on his own place. The next day he was to agcompany Lorentson to town, but failed to show up. He was missed from his shack and search was instituted, the body being found in a well, almost completely submerged. It is supposed he went to the well as usual to water his stock and, be- ing unable to break the ice with a pail, let himself down to break it with his feet-and fell into the water. Chilled and exhausted in his vain efforts to climb the rope with his Water soaked clothes he expired. PASSENGER TRAINS COLLIDE One Dead and a Number Injured in lowa Wreck.

The passenger train had run past the station and. was ready to back on to the siding when the overland limited going at the rate of twenty-five miles an hour, crashed into it. Both en- gines were reduced to scrap iron and the ;mail, baggage and chair cars of the limited were wrecked. The engi neer escaped by jumping.
