it e THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEE Historical Society. SRS HISTORICAL SOCIETY. VOLUME 8. NUMBER 84. BEMIDJI, MINNESOTA, TUESDAY EVENiNG. JULY 26, 1910. LARGE AUDIENCES COME TO HEAR GAEBELEIN SPEAK| Deliverefl Three Addresses Yesterday, Two of Which Were on “Daniel”’—Swearingen to Talk Tonight—Song Services, Led by Andrew Rood. Dr. A. C. Gaebelein delivered his first address on the book of *Daniel” to the bible conference yesterday the book showing how it was divided and how *“The book,” he said, “was written in two languages. The first part was writ- ten for the people of Babylon and Aramaic, the commercial language of the people, was used. The sec- ond part was for the Jews and was written in Hebrew. “We read in this book, the beauti- ful story of the faith of Daniel, the morning. He analysed the material was arranged. boldness of his faith and the con-! fidence that came from his study of God’s word. He knew the prophecy of Jeremiah and Isaiah. He had learned well the laws con- cerning the purification of the children of Israel. Therefore, be- cause he knew these things, he pur- posed in his beart to keep the law of his God and refused to share in the pleasures and dissipations of the court. And God honored his faith and gave him favor with those in power.” Yesterday afternoon, the Doctor gave his second address on “Daniel” and analysed chapter two. The chapter tells of the dream of Nebuchadnezzar and the appearance of Daniel before the king and his interpretation of the dream. Speaking of the vision presented by the author of the chapter, Dr. Gaebelein said, “God shows in this vision, the deterioration of the world and its progressing apostacy until in the time yet to come, represented by the toes of iron and clay, as monarchy and democracy inter- twined, the ‘Stone cut without hands’ Tuesday, 7:45 p.m. Song Service. 8:15 p. m. Wednesday, July 27. unites all the world and the Gentile times end with the second coming of Christ, who is meant by the stone. ‘And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken; but on whom- soever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.’ At the evening service, the singing was lead by Mr. Andrew Rood. Reverend Helmich prayed, Misses Dora Hanson and Harriet Haldeman sang ‘Hark, Hark, My Soul.” Dr. Gaebelein delivered an address on “The Work of Christ in Incarna- tion.” “The old and the new testa- ments,” said Dr. Gaebelin, ¢‘teach a threefold aspect of the work of the Son of God; the past work, that done while on earth; the pres. ent, that which he is doing at this time; and the future. The past work of Christ was foreshadowed throughout the old testamentin the tabernacle service when a lamb was slain, “The work of Christ on the cross is the deepest thing in God’s word. Christ’s sufferings were fourfold: first, the suffering for himself, second, from man; third, from Satan; and fourth, from the Father. Man cannot understand what the weight of the sins of the world pressing upon 'Him who knew no sin’ could mean. But the greatest suffering was the last which drew from him the cry, ‘My God, my God, why hast Thou forsaken me?’”’ Attendence at all the meetings of the conference has been large and the delegates are still arriving. To- night, Dr. H. C. Swearingen will speak on the“Resources of the Kingdom”. Following is the pro- Address—"The Resources of the Kingdom gram for the remainder of the week: July 26. Dr. H. C.

Roosevelt in Cairo is interesting from the first flash upon the screen. It shows the reception given him by the Khedive of Eygpt in the city of Cairo, and gives one an idea of what the far east can do in way of entertainment. ‘The Princess and the Peasant is * another film that holds the audience spell-bound from start to finish. The third film is entitled, “Purged by Fire,” telling the story of a rich farmer refusing a beggar. The farmer leaves for the city with a wheu he returns he finds his house burned to the ground. These pictures were shown for the first time last evening and will be shown again tonight. An entire change of program will be given to- morrow night.

Mrs. Knopke was apparently enjoying her usual health and a half hour before the end came she had answered the phone. It is supposed that death was due to heart failure. Mrs. Knopke was the mother of Hamlin Anderson and was about fifty-two years old. She was one of the oldest residents of Bemidji hav- ing come here when the city was little more than a lumber camp. She is survived by several sisters in Minneapolis and no funeral arrange- ments will be made until.they arrive here. |Standing of the l}lubsl American Assoclation been seen since. shoes and stockings.

Beltrami county is to have an exhibit in the State Fair this year that will rival that of any other county. The -exhibit will be in charge of the Beltrami County Fair association and President White and Secretary Mackenzie are now busy working out the details. Grasses, grains and roots will be collected from three sections of the country. George E. Erickson, of Spooner, has charge of the collec- tions in the nortb; L. G. Townsend, of Blackduck,.in the central; and W. R. Mackenzie and August Jarchow in the south. The com- mittee wants wild and tame grasses, clovers, grain in - the straw and grain threshed, and all kinds of root crops. The exhibits that go to the State Fair will be returned in time to be entered in the County Fair and will be eligible for the prizes here. The State Fair will be held the week of September 5 to 10 jand the County Fair September 14, 15 and 16. In order that the farmers may not have to go to any| expense to get their exhibits collected, the commit- tee in charge offers to collect all of the materials to bé shown if the farmer will write to the secretary or notify any of the committee. Farmers of the county are urged by the Fair directors to get behind the exhibit and make it the best one in Hamline. It is pointed out that 25,000 visitors from other states. will be in the Twin Cities Fair week as that is the time that the Conserva- tion Congress will also ‘be held. Theodore Roosevelt and President Taft will be among the visitors. Secretary. Mackenzie says that wider advertising to the county will come from a first class exhibit at the Fair this year than any other Fair ever held, because of the fact that so many visitors will attend from other states. This county has the crops and the farmers are urged to assist the committee in gathering the best for the exhi bit. The entries for the exhibit must be in the hands of the committee by September 1 as it will take two or three days to have them shipped to St. Paul and arranged. Secre- tary Mackenzie may be reached in Bemidji for this month and the other members of the committe can be reached at their homes. The committe is working hard and feels that it should have the sup- port of every farmer, as the farm- ers are the ones who will-reap the benefits, WEATHER TODAY. ‘Temperature Monday Tuesday A.

MAY BUILD WAREHOUSE T0 GARE FOR PRODUGE Farmers and Business Men Feel Need of a Central Market Place . in This City. There is a movement on foot which is being strongly agitated among farmers and is also being brought to the attention of the merchants in the city which will probably re- sult in the building of a warehouse in Bemidji. The purpose of this warehouse is to handle produce brought in and about Bemidji. At the present time the farmers have tract—Band Given By a vote of four to two, the malt ordinance failed to pass the city council last night. Three councilmen Bisiar, Bursley, and Roe, - were absent and as it takes a two thirds vote to pass an ordin- ance. the two against it, which were cast Kirke and Smart, were no place to dispose of their vegetables unless they can ship in carload lots. The merchants in the city who buy the various kinds of vegetables have them shipped in from St. Paul, Minneapolis or Duluth. They do this because they can buy at one place the variety they want and in the quanities they wish to buy. They also buy all produce that they can handle direct from the famers, but where to dispose dispose of the balance is the question. The farmers here want a place ‘to which they can bring their market produce and they want the assurance of a sale before they leave their farms with a load. At the present time they are either compelled to sell at a ridiculous price or retail them from house to house. A com- mission house of this kind will be-a convenience to merchants as well as farmers, because they can go to the house every morning and select their produce for the days business, or better still, they can telephone the manager -of the commission house just what to deliver their store. An effort will shortly be made to bring the farmers and business men in the citv together. The farmers have made requests of merchants individually about extending their efforts to secure a commission house for Bemidji but no steps have as yet been taken, The Commercial clab of this city has stated through its president, W. L. Brooks, that it would be only too pleased to meet a delegation of farm- ers repressenting the farmers around Bemidji and talk matters over. This will no doubt result in much good to both farmers and merchants. The idea is to bring them together to do something which will result in harmony and find a market for the produce raised by Bemidji farmers. The Pioneer would like to secure a list of farmers about the city and notify them when this meeting will be held. Any farmer or any merchant who has an idea in advance regarding the feasibility of building a ware- house should communicate with the president of the Commercial club or send such matters to the Pioneer office.

Some of them were once saloons, but hav- ing had their license revoked, started to sell malt. They have no closing hour and it is claimed that the men who are turned out of li- censed saloons at 11 o’clock spend the remainder of the night in the malt room. The ordinance would have brought these places under city control as they would then be compelled to take out a license. P. J. Russell appeared before the council in the interests of two men who are selling malt and stated that as malt contained less than two per cent of alcohol, it could not be classed as a liquor so the ordinance would not cover the cases which the council wished. Mr. Russell stated than many patent medicines, such as Digesto, which are sold by druggists, contain_over three per cent alcoliol “and" suggested that druggists handling such goods be forced to take out a license. If passed, the ordingnce would have compclled the malt rooms to close at the same time as the saloons. It is possible that another ordinance, covering and correcting the cbjectional features of the one defeated last night, will be drawn and submitted to the council at a future meeting. Bosworth Wins Contract. H. F. Bosworth was awarded the contract for laying the sewer recently authorized by the council. His bid was $1.05 per foot for the laying of about 2840 feet of standard eight inch sewer pipe, and $55 each for eight manholes. His tank was estimated at $100, snd the bid figured $3537. His certified check for $450 accompanied the bid. Bond was fixed at $3500. Doran Brothers bid was two cents a foor more than Bosworth’s, and their bid figured $3588. Frazer and Danforth, of Rochester, Minne- sota, bid $1.20 per foot, $50 for. the manholes, and $90 for the flush tank. Their bid ffgured $3898. L. P. Eckstrum bid $1.26 per foot, $62.50 for the manholes, and $130 for the tank. His bid figured $4198. Money for the County Fair. W. R. Mackenzie, secretary of the Fair association, addressed the coun- cil and asked for the annual grant of money made to the Fair directors. The question as to whether or not the city could vote money to a cor- poration for such a purpose was raised and it was decided that it could be voted out of the contingent fund if the council was represented on the committee that spent the money. It was decided informally to give the Fair $250, but the reso- lution was allowed to go ‘over untill the next meeting. TEN CENTS PER WEEK. COUNCIL LACKED YOTES TO PASS THE MALT ORDINANCE Absent Members Raise Number Necessary—Two Votes Cast Against it—Bosworth Awarded Sewer Con- Use of City Hall. When addressing the council, Mr. Mackenzie said that the county had voted the Fair $650 instead of the $250 given last year. This with the council money will give the directors $1,000 to work with. $800 will go for the Beltrami county exhibition at the State Fair, No Street Carnival Vint Ellis and Professor Harry Masten represented the band before the council and stated :hat the Cash Carnival wanted to come to Bemidji and had offered the ten per cent of the gross receipts if no license is de- manded. The band needs money with which to pay off the balance of the uniform debt, which is about $250. . The council decided that as a Car nival leaves the city dead after it takes away its tents and also carries more money out of town than it brings in, the Carnival could not be allowed. The band was granted the use of the park any time that it wants to give an ice cream lawn fete. Because of the differences arising between the militia and band over the use of the Armory, the band was given the use of the city hall for a meeting place and the city will fur- nish the light. It was also stated at the meeting that no report of the finances of Company K has ever been filed since the company was organized. The company was to have the use of the Armory, but. any money that it made from the use of the building was to be turned over to the city to help pay the rent. No such money has ever been received by the city or a report made. Mayor Parker is on the committee that rented the Armory aund said that a report would be made. Dynamite House to be Moved. Residents on Fourth street told the council that the dynamite house, owned jointly by C. E. Battle and the Given Hardware company for the storage of powder, was too near residences and dangerous to lives and property. The council ordered that the building be moved at least one-half mile from any residénce and appointed Schneider and Klein, of the building com- mittee to see that the order is carried out. A bond of the city treasurer for $10,000 completing bond which he is under, was turned over to City Attorney Torrance to see that it was properly executed. It had not been signed by Mr. Geil. Six shovels and a padlock were ordered for the street department. Mr. Hazen com- plained that shovels were borrowed to fight fire and then never returned. The report of the municiple court showing receipts for the week ending July 23 of $3.85 was accepted. Bills Ordered Paid. The following bill were audited and ordered paid: J. R.
