{ ENGLISH GRAND OPERA SINGERS WILL BE HERE Will Give Entertainment at City Opera House, Tuesday Night, Benefit Fire Department. The English Grand Opera Singers and Symphony Orchestra which will give an entertainment atthe City Opera House Tuesday night, March 22, under the auspices of the Be- midji Fire Department, come very well recommended. The Edmunton Journal says of the company. “The second of the Walker series of concerts was given last evening at the opera house toa very large and appreciative audience. The pro- gramme was by the English Grand Opera Singers and Symphony Orches- tra, and there was not one number but what was a rich treat either in vocal or instrumental music. “Miss Juanita Rush, the prima donna, possesses a splendid range of voice. Her presence on the stage is pleasing and she sings with captivating ease and grace. “Miss Rose Manning was the con tralto, and she, too, has a splendid voice. “Mr. Picquet and Mr. Hamil- ton both contributed materially to the success of the concert. “In the opera ‘Martha’ with which the second part of the pro- gramme was taken up, the parts were taken by Misses Rush and Manning and Messrs. Picquet and Hamilton, and it was one of the most delightful performances given at the opera house. “The work of the orchestra was goed, the parts taken by Miss Zeller being exceptionally well appreciated. Glen Kershner performed onthe flute, and Leon Ketchum on the ’cello, and both showed themselves artists at their respective instruments. Miss Nina Carpenter was the pianist.” INSURGENTS FEEL PLEASED Declare Cannon Organization Has Lost Control of House. ‘Washington, March 18.—Insurgent Republican leaders declare that the proceedings of the past few days dem- onstrate beyond a doubt that Speaker Cannon and his organization have lost control of the house. The leaders privately admit that this is the case and that the true sit- uation is recognized by the leaders of the senate was evident at a meeting of the senate steering committee a few days ago when a prominent Re- publican senator said he had made it his business to confer with house leaders on the legislative progremme for the session and found that they could make no promises that were cer- tain of being kept. “While we may have the votes te pass the railroad rate bill through the senate,” said the senator, “there s no certainty whatever as to what the house will do with it. 1 am con vinced that Speaker Cannon and his associates have lost their nerve.” KEEP THE KIDNEYS WELL.

These organs did not act properly and caused me much discomfort, I decided to try a kidney remedy and procured a box of Doan’s Kidney Pills at the Owl Drug Store. In a short time after us- ing them I felt a great deal better and am now in fairly good health, I have no hesitation in recommend- ing Doan’s Kidney Pills,” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.

Many Unecessary Deaths from this Disease. If people could only understand that systemic catarrh is an internal disease that external applications cannot cure, they would not need to be warned so often about this malady, which, when neglected, paves the way oftentimes for con- sumption, at the cost of millions of lives every year. Yet catarrh may be cured, if the right treat- ment is employed. Catarrh is caused by a general diseased state of the system which leads commonly to annoying and perhaps serious local conditions, which may prove a fertile breeding ground for germs of consumption. External remedies give but tem- porary ease. The only way to successfully treat catarrh is by employing a medicine which is absorbed and carried by the blood to all parts of the system, ‘so that the mucous membrane or internal lining of the body is toned up and made capable of resisting the infection of con- sumption and other diseases. We have a remedy prepared from the prescription of a physician who for thirty years studied and made catarrh a specialty, and whose record was a patient restored to health in every case where his treat- ment was followed as prescribed. That remedy is Rexall Mucu-Tone. We are so positive that it will com- pletely overcome catarrh in all its various forms, whether acute or chronic, that we promise to return every penny paid us for the medi- cine in every case where it fails or for any reason does not satisfy the user. We want you to try Rexall Mucu- Tone on our recommendation and guarantee. We are right here where you live, and you do not con-] tract any obligation or risk when you try Rexall Mucu-Tone on our guarantee. We have Rexall Mucu- Tone in two sizes, 50 cents and $1.00. Very often the taking of one 50-cent bottle is sufficient to make a marked impression upon the case. Of course in chronic cases a longer treatment is necessary. The aver- age in such instances is three $1.00 bottles. Remember you can obtain Rexall Remedies in Bemidji only at our store,—The Rexall Store. Bar- ker’s Drug Store. Robber Is Fatally Shot.

The championship banner is now held by the Park Rapids high school, which was first in the final contest last year. » Hiram Simons, Jr., will render the serious selection, aud Emil Engels will render the humorous selection, representing the Bemidji high school, and hopes are entertained that the boys will lead the other schools and secure the banner for Bemidji.

Cincinnati, March 18.—The crisis in the negotiations between the miners and operators of Ohio, Indiana and ‘Western Pennsylvania over a wage scale is at hand. With almost the last hope of an agreement in this field gone the situation in all other bi- tuminous mining sections was also made tense. The sub-scale committee, which had the miners’ demands before it for three days, made its report to the full ecommittee. The full committee in turn reported to the central field con- ference of miners and operators. After this the subject was submitted to the special convention of the United Mine ‘Workers of North America.

May Misappropriated Funds of American Press Association. St. Paul, March 18.—Alfred L. May, former manager of the American Press Association of this city, pleaded guilty to the charge of vsing the com- pany’s funds and was centenced to six months in the county jail of Ram- sey county. But this sentence was afterwards suspended for a term of one year, and during his good be- havior. The American Press Associa- tion, through its attorney, Thomas J. McDermott of St. Paul, recommended Defendant May to the mercy of the court on account of his long service with the company and the fact that he plead guilty, stating that the American Press Association had no desire for revenge in making the com- plaint. CANADA PREPARED FOR TARIFF WAR (Expects United States Will In- crease Duties on April L Ottawa, Ont, March 18.—Canada has read between the lines of Wash- ington dispatches that a tariff war with the United States is- inevitable and has accepted the situation. The expectation is that on April 1 Cana- dian goods will be assessed at 25 per cent surtax and that soon afterwards Canada will levy a 33 1-3 per cent sur- tax on American goods coming into Canada. The administration is deriving com- fort in the crisis from the attitude of its political opponents. The Conserva- tive press, which usually misses no chance to attack the government, has expressed approval of the course which Finance Minister Fielding has followed in the negotiations. Germany is preparing to take ad- vantage of the situation. Cable ad- vices say that an army of invasion in the shape of German commercial travelers is preparing to descend upon Canada and already the country is being flooded with catalogues from German manufacturers. English houses are also showing greater ac- tivity. Senator Daniel Very Low. Daytona, Fla., March 18.—United States Senator John W. Daniel is in a state of coma, from which he has not been aroused for twenty-four hours. His death is momentarily expected. GRAIN AND PROVISION PRICES Minneapolis Wheat.
