One of the most interested: out of town . visitors to Memorial services in Bemidji was Mrs. P. L. Knappen of Hetland & Tenstrike.

Mr. Knappen belonged to the Loyal Legion, a high military order and Mrs. Knappen is one of the “Dames Money to Loan, V. L. Ellis. When in Bemidji a few days ago, A. Utecht of Little Bass Lake an- nounced that he had his new saw and planing mill in operation on his farm.

He has cleared a 40 acre farm and this year has planted a diversified crop of small grain, pota- toes, corn and hay. A big line of fans for graduates will be sold for less than wholesale cost, Thursday and Friday at Tropp- man Co., fan sale. J. Oftedahl, farm on which the who resides near the man who 1s have been killed, brings the inform- ation that the aged Scandinavian who was first referred to as Nesbit, then as Peter Neste was, as a matter of fact, Peter Olson. Mr. Oftedahl explains that “Neste” is a place in Norway from which Olson ‘came and that for that reason he is generally referred to as Peter Neste. Excellent program at the Majestic ‘Theatre tonight and tomorrow night. W. G. Schroeder, owner of the Alfalfa Dairy farm, received a ship- ment of five thorough bred Poland China pigs Tuesday. They were purchased from W. J. Graham of Howard Lake, Minn., who conducts a stock farm near that place. That it is profitable to raise pigs on skim milk has been clearly demonstrated by Mr. Schroeder during the past six months. He has now 63 pigs and about the same number of cows and thew have been fed mostly. on skim milk. Excursion to the Dam every day at 2:30 on the Yankee Doodle. There will be no band concert this week on Friday as had been original- ly planned because of the numerous affairs in connection with the clos- ing of the public schools, Friday eve- ning being the date set for the grad- uating exercises. “Out of consider- ation for the school events and be- cause we do not believe it would be proper to play during the time the exercises are being held, there will be no concert this week,” said Di- rector Masten, who announces that, beginning next week, the regular concerts will be held. Tomorrow Troppman Co., will sell oatmeal, cold cream, buttermilk and white castile toilet soap at 2 1-2 cents a cake. Not over ten cakes to a customer. There is to be quite an extension to the water works system in Kel- liher this summer. The village council has decided to extend mains along Clark street to the corner on which the church stands, and then one block each way east and west. This will give water advantages to a lot of houses where the people now have to carry their water supply, and is but another mark of the 16cal fmprovements that are going on in Kelliher. H. F.

Because of his experience in build- ing a church in Fergus Falls, Rev. Charles Flesher, pastor, was asked to undertake the work of building the new edifice. 3 Plans and specifications were made by Bert Keck of Crookston. D. S. Wittenmore of Detroit was given a contract for the construction and the foundation walls were completed to the water table and the rough floor laid last fall. of brick with concrete foundation and when completed will be thor- oughly modern and an ornament to the city. ‘The building is of pleasing archi- tectural design of.library style and for beauty, economy and convenience will be difficult to surpass. The present membership of the Methodist church is 160 and. this with a large Sunday school crowding ‘the present building, the Masonic temple, together with a good Ep- worth League, and a prosperous Ladies' Aid Society, makes this new building necessary. The first visit of the minister of the Methodist Episcopal church to (Bemidji was made 13 years ago this month—May 24, 1898, to be pre- cise—when Rev. Robert Forbes, D. D., presiding elder of the Duluth 'district, and Rev. 0. J. Cry of Mi- laca who made the trip by stage from Steamboat - Landing. Dr. Forbes preached-1n'the Presbyterian church in the afternoon and lectured on Abraham Lincoln in the evening. A board of trustees was elected at this time, consisting of Maurice J. Leak, James Driver, J. L. Reynolds, ‘Matthew Phibbs, Robert Forbes and 0. J.. Gary. Lots 13, 14 and 15, block 8, were secured for a church site. About the first of June, 1898, Rev. A. E. Rawson was appointed pastor and began his work by open air preaching near the present boat landing. The court house was used ‘for a while after which the Wood- man hall was secured until the new church was ready for services. In October, 1898, Rev. George P. ‘Watson, now. editor of the Interna- tional Falls Press, was appointed io the-charge and on Sunday, December 4, the church was organized and the following.were received as mem- bers: M. .J. Leak and wife, James Driver and wife, Mrs. James C. Brennan, Mrs. Lottie Pike, Mrs. Mat- thew Phibbs and Avery Smith. Rev. ‘Watson continued--until the spring of 1901. About-May 1, Rev. George Swinnerton of. St. Vincent was transferred and:continued until Jan- uary 15, 1902, In February, Rev. Grant Teeter§ of Indiana took up the work. The following. October, Rev. U. S.

A bone, a nail or a plece of tin gets in me throat, and there is great danger of death before the arrival of the surgeon. Many of them do die, but there is no reason for this, for it is easy, without|. the slightest danger of getting bitten, to put the hand in the mouth of a dog and to draw out or push down the ob- struction that is choking it. A bandage —a handkerchief or towel will do—is passed between the teeth and over the upper jaw, and in a similar way anoth- er bandage is passed between the-teeth and over the under jaw. One person, holding the ends of these two band- ages, keeps the dog’s mouth wide open. A second person can then with perfect ease and safety put his fingers down the animal’s throat. and relieve it. Coming In Out of the Wet. There i3 an amusing story by Athe- naeus which suggests the possible ori- gin of the phrase “He does not know enough to come in, out of the wet.” -Ac- cording to the entertaining grammarian. stress of evil circumstances borrowed money from a rich man, who took as security for the loan a mortgage on the handsome portico which surronnded the market place. He was not an un- generous .creditor, for when it rained he caused the town criers to announce that the. citizens had permission. to take refuge under the - colonnade. Strangers: visiting the town who fail- ed to have the matter properly explain- ed to them were 8o impressed by thé extraordinary circumstances that they spread-abroad the report that the peo- ple were go stupid that they had to be told when to come in out of the wet. referred to, a town in Greece under,| A Snake Story.
