The building occupied by the well known Toy and Notion store, owned by Floyd Brown, has been enlarged to twice its former size. A new addition has been added to the rear of the old building which will double the capacity of the store. I'he steady growth of Mr. Brown’s business has warranted this addition. He has been in business for the past four years and the citizens of this city appreciate the values he has glven them. In the ceiling of the new addition is a large sky light which makes the room throughout as light as day. One of the largest shipments of - notions and toys ever brought to this city has just been received at this store. Mr, Brown is planning a large opening for some time this month. The citizens of Bemidji, especially the women, should avail themselves of the opportunity to in- spect the fi est stock in the five and and ten cent line, as well as the higher priced articles of toys and notions, and glassware and crockery, etc,, that can be seen in northern Minnesota. Mr. Brown has made a store of which Bemidji can well be proud. Tt is a store that drawstrade from willages in this, as well as neighbor- ing counties. What Mr. Brown is doing for himself and his business he is doing for the city of Bemidji, which makes him a valuable ‘“‘booster” for this section of the country. AMERICA A DUMPING GROUND FOR GRIMINALS A man now incarcerated in a western retormatory as firstoffend- er has an European record of at least twenty-two arrests and eigh- teen workhouse or prison terms, He makes the following statement, which may be taken for what it is worth: “I met hundreds of - fellows in New York whom I knew in the prisons of Norway and Sweden, These fellows told me that the officials had sent them over here. I ask many of them how they got over here and they told me that the officials had sent them here, Imet five or six in Superior that 1 kpew in the old country, and they told me that they had been sent to America by the officials. As soon aa a man’s time is about up the papers are prepared to send the men to other countries, mostly to America. Many men commit crimes so that they can be sent to America. Once more I was in Christiana, Norway, and served one hundred and four days, when my time was up I ask to be sent to America and they told me that if I was a Norwegian and had done something worse they would.” YOUNG FAWNS NOT TO BE TAKEN FROM WOODS Against Law to Domesticate Them— Two Fined in Court for Illegal .

Yesterday the steam shovel was cutting into the hill across the street from the circus grounds and two dummy trains were taking the sand back along the right of way to fill in the hollows. had come very much later, it could not have pitched its tents on the ball ground$ Nothing new has been heard on the union depot, but it looks now as though only the Soo and the Inter- national would get together on the proposion. The Great Northern, al- though owned by practically the same people as the Northern Pacific, refuses to come in on the union depot because of its ri\;alry with the Soo line. West of Bemidii, the Soo grade has been pretty well established and it will not be long beforh the con- struction trains are running. The railroad will soon be sand that is being cut out of the hills and used for filler so fine that the engineers are afraid of much damage if there is a sudden downpour.

Word has been received from C. C. Shulz, state superintendent of schools, that Miss May Decker, of the Schiller School Minneapolis, will be at the summer school at Bemidji from June 2oth until June-25th, She will give special lessons in primary methods cover- ing reading, number-work and allied ' subjects. All student teachers should take this work under Miss Decker. Those who heard her the last week of school last year will be glad to hear her again and those who have not heard her should not loose this opportunity. She is one of the ablest primary teachers in the state and her work here will be most” helpful and suggestive to every teacher, Mr. Schultz also states that Miss Mary Hartzell will be here the first week of summer school to give instructions in sewing. ~ Miss Hart- zell comes.from the College of Agri- culture and her work will be very interesting and instructive. It will be along the line of manual training, a subject which is receiving much attention everywhere. The work will be practical and tend to stimu- late a greater interest in home life. In order to bring teachers in touch with some particular phases of school work which they will likely be called upon to teach at no remote time, these special instructors are sent out all over the state. They have a double mission in not only giving instruction. but tend to unify " | and build up the work of the public ‘school. Through them a higher standard of efficiency is gained and the work done in the schools is improved and enriched. In order to get the most from these instructors as well as those who will be here dur- ing the whole time, teachers should come the first day and be ready to start in at the very beginning. Start- ing under such favorable conditions for assistance the first week . may be equivalent to half a term under ordin- ary circumstances. The help, the enthusiasm and the inspiration thus assured should bring the greatest success to the individual who is willing to avail himself of these excellent opportunities for self improvement. All members of Bemidji Rod and Gun are club urged to attend shoot at 2:30 tomorrow. Perfume Canse of Fun. Down at the Markham Tuesday night, there was much laughter and hilarity, It was caused by the innocent ad. run on the first page of.the Pioneer by the City Drug store. The ad. read, ‘“@mell]| This Ad.” *PutYour FaceTo It,” The ad. had been sprayed witha new perfume being sold at the drug store, The first to enter the dining- room took up the paper and soon smelled of the ad. Then they waited to watch the others, Some were afraid at first that it was just a joke and took plenty of time to smell of it, but when they did, they were just as eager to watch the next comer. This is the first time this kind of practical advertising has been tried in Bemidji., Sheriff Hazen is Candidate for Re- election. It has been intimated that I will not be a candidate for re-election to the office of sheriff of Beltrami county. I wish to announce to the voters of the county that'I shall be a candidate for the republican nom- ination for sheriff to succed myself, and I solicit the support of the voters at the polls. Respectfully yours, A. B. Hazen, Sheriff Beltrami County. GLYDE KILLED IN SAWMILL Ground to Pieces by Friction Pulleys In Plant Near Orth. Northome, Minn., June 9—A. O.
