Company K baseball players lost to Kelliher yesterday by a score of 14 to 5. The feature of the game was the pitching of Beach of Kell- her. He held his opponents at all times and kept his hits well scat- tered. Saturday night, the visitors were entertained with a dance. The line up was as follows: Kelliher Bemidji. Beach, p. Mitchell, p.

SPORTING NOTES Chicago, Ill., July 18,—The de- parture of the Chicago University team for Japan, where they will play a series of ball games with the Waseda university, will be made about Sept. 15, and the athletes will not return until after Jan. 1 of next year. Last year the University of Wisconsin baseball team played a series of games in Japan, this being the longest basebali trip ever at- tempted by an American college representative, The trip outlined for the Maroon team in all probabil- ity will eclipse even that made by the Badgers. Waseda university has a student body of 6,000 and big gate receipts are probable. It will be remembered that Waseda beat Wisconsin last vear. An interesting coincidence is that Albert W. Place, one of Chicago’s best batters, is the coach of Waseda, while Fred Merrifild, an- other Midway player, is greatly re- sponsible for the booming of our national pastime in the orient. Captain Pegues will lead the Ma- roons and will play shortstop. Pat Page and G. Roberts will complete the twirling staff, and Steinbrecher and Paul will be the backstops. others of the squad will be: Baird 1b; O. Robers, 2b; Boyle, 3b; Cap- tain-elect Collins, Cleary and Lath- an, fielders. Several other players may make the trip. GASS LAKE BRIEFS, Cass Lake, July 17—(Special rCoxrespondence)—Cass Lake de- feated the Bena Indians here today in a onesided game by a score of 17 to 2.

Until after four o’clock Saturday afternoon, it was not expected that there would be any fight over the places. Messrs. Torrance and Mel- ges had stated that they would serve if elected and it was thought that the election would be quiet. Many of the women exercised their right to vote and use what MASONIC DEGREES SOLD BY PRISONER Sheduled Prices Listed for All Orders Between and First Thirty- second.

EASTMAN RETURNS FROM RED LAKE VISIT Forced to Cut It Short as His Inter- preter Was Called to Canada for an Indian Council. Dr. Charles A. Eastman, who was in Bemidji last week on his way to the Red Lake reservation, returned to Bemidji Saturday night. He was forced to cut his stay at Red Lake short as his interpreter, Joe Morrison, was called to Canada to interpret for some Indian tribes there which are to have a grand council this week. The whole council may decide to go to Montreal so that Dr. Eastman felt that he would be losing a rare opporunity if he did not accompany Morrison. Yesterday, he went down to Walk- er and finished up some work that he left with the Chippewa Indians on Bear Island. He will leave for the Canadian council this afternoon Girls of 16 Irreligious?

CHECK LOST BETWEEN BEMIDJI AND SOLWAY Was Issued April 20 and Mailed to Local Bank But Has Not Yet Been Received. - Elsewhere in this issue appears an add for a lost check of $2,701.49 which has disappeared. It was mailed in Solway the last of April and sent to Bemidji but to date it has not been received. Payment on the check has been stopped, but Gust Lindahl, in whose favor it was issued is looking for it zealously. The ‘check was drawn for Lind- abl on April 20 and is numbered 3231. He was working for Foley, Welch and Stewart, of St. Paul, near Solway and placed the check in his bank book for safe keeping. He sent a teamster to Solway to mail the letter and the postmaster re- Major R. D. Gwydir, former In- dian fighter and veteran of the Con- federate army, now sidewalk in- spector for the city of Spokane and member of a local Masonic lodge, preferred the charge in the Spokane police court, where, after passing several hours in a cell, Perrot gave a bond of $500 for'his appearance. Del Bary Smith, past worthy grand to president of the Eagles, who has been retained as counsel, says Perrot is a member in good standing of 12 secret and fraternal orders, adding that he holds a certificate signed by I. M. Howell, secretary of the state of Washington, authorizing him to “do business” under the American Masonic Federation of Idaho, also that Perrot is an official of the American Federation of Masonic Lodges, incorporated under the laws of the state of Washington. Documents found in an office occupied by Perrot show he is an agent for the Scottish Grand Coun- cil of Rites and is working here un- der the direction of A. E. Lucas of Tacoma, deputy grand marshal of Washington, while some of the stationery picked up in the raided quarters indicates that the “sixtieth” STARTS ON SQUTH POLE TRIP Leader of British Expedition Leaves for New Zealand.

TRAIN HELD UP BY STRIKERS Italian Trackmen Refuse to " Wrecking Crew Proceed. Albany, N. Y., July 18—A wrecking train on the Boston and Maine rail- road, which was sent out from Me- chanicsville to clear up a freight wreck near Ushers, was flagged by striking Itahan trackmen before it reached the wreckage. As the train slowed down two Italians covered the engineer and fireman with rifles and refused to let the wreckers proceed. The train carried about forty Italian laborers, who found themselves facing an angry crowd of about sixty other Ttalians, all armed and who declared that the wrecking train should not go further. After considerable parleying the train was forced to return to Mechanicesville. Let Sovercigns and princes are strangely hardt is a conductor on the Great Northern through here.

PRINGE HAL WON PAGE BY TAKING THREE HEATS Better Promise Finished Firstin Two With Skidoo Third—Lula Black- ford Took the Trot. Prince Hal won the free-for-all pace at the Fair grounds track yes- terday afternoon. 1t took five heats to decide the race. Better Promise won the first two, but Prince Hal took the third and then was able to win the last two by a hard effort. Skiddoo came in third. In the 2:35 trot, Lulu Blackford won the race by taking four heats. The track was about five seconds slow as the automobiles have cut deep ruts in it in some places when racing. The horses were entered today in the big state meet in Superior Au- T0 S00 CONTRAGTORS Will be Held Strictly to Agreement.— Work is Being Rushed from Both Ends. Sunday, a Duluth paper printed a dispatch from Bagley which said that all the Soo contractors had been given an extension of sixty days on their ‘contracts on the Moose Lake-Plummer line. The article further said that the company evi- dently did not intend to haul freight very soon as the steel gangs were only laying half a mile of track a day. At the local Soo engineer’s office this afternoon, the dispatch was branded as a bad mistake, The new machine which started working east from Plummer laid close to ten miles during the five days that it was oper- ating last week, The one working out of Moose Lake is working just as fast and is expected to be here on schedule time.
