DORA BARRETTE, Society Reporter ’ BEMIDJI BRIEF Indians coming to Bemidji from the Red Lake district say that all kinds of wild fruit is more plentiful this year than ever before. Money to Loan, V. L. Ellis. Work on the interior of the Soo- International depot is going ahead rapidly and the building will be ready for passengers by July 1, as planned. The Ladies Aid of the Swedish Lutheran Church will be entertain- ed Thursday afternoon by Mrs. Smith at the Challenge hotel. Bring the calendar money. Dozens of persons line Fourth street and the lake shore when the fire boys who are practicing for the Ada tournament go through their stunts every evening. Are you going away for your sum- mer vacation? Wouldn't you enjoy it more if you knew your vajuables were safely in a deposit box of the Northern National Bank. Committees in charge of the Fourth of July celebration are at work today, although a delay of a day in the real campaign is caused by the meeting of the bankers here today. Have that new suit you are thirk- ing of getting made at the New Taylor Shop, 318 Minn. Ave. Frank Ellison, a twelve year oid boy, living in East Bemlidji yester- day caught two pike at the same time on one hook, both fish appar- ently going after tne bait at the same time. See Hud Fisk, when in need of automobile, gas engine and motor boat repair work. Shop, lake front foot of Fourth street. Phone 381. Bathers are numerous along the lake front during these hot days and many say that Bemidji should have a public bath house. One could be conducted with little ex- pense to the city.

Boat stall for rent. Hud Fisk. Work is progressing rapidly in the building of the new road around the lake at the end of Lake Boulevard. Teams are hauling dirt, filling in the ravine in front of John Gibbons residence today and then will con- tinue the road building to the Dia- mond point road. Inquire of Miss Inga Dahl, deputy register of deeds of Crookston, returned to her home yesterday after a two weeks’ visit with her sister, Mrs. 0. C. Rood of this city. Miss Dahl was accompanied by her niece, Miss Helen Strander who has been a guest at the Rood home for some time. Work on the septic tank, which has frequently been delayed, is being pushed by Contractor Tom Johnson, who is preparing the structure in accordance with instructions from the ecity. The tank probably will be ready for a test as to its practi- cability in about another week or so. Editor Harold Knutson of Foley, who is here for the bankers gather- ing, was well acquainted with Dr. Dumas when the Cass Lake mayor was located there. Mr. Knutson says at that time the doctor was known as a “good spender’” and that that frequently he would unfold clever schemes of how insurance companies might be swindled. Kelsey Chase, state superin- tendent of banks, who came to at- tend the meeting of sthe banker today, came over from Park Rapids. He never had been in Bemidji be- fore. “I was surprised to find such a real city,” he said. “It is a larger and better and prettier town than I had expected to see, although I heard some nive things about the town.” Many of the third street business men expected that the cement pave- ment on Third street would receive it’s annual bath last evening, but were much disappointed to find the pavement covered, as usual with a layer of dirt. “I thought that the bankers would attend to that be- cause it's the only thing, besides the lake, we have to boast of”, said one of the merchants this morning. There was some excitement in the vicinity of the Soo Depot when one of the teams owned by Tom Smart became frightened and ran away. ‘Waldemar Johnson, an employee of the Soo Depot, caught the back end of the rig and clmbed up to the seat. Finding the lines had fallen, Walde- mar walked out on the tongue of the wagon and, catching the bridles of the horses, succeeded in stopping them. Farmers in the territory surround- ing Bemidji will have an opportunity to sell what wire grass they have on their farm in the near future, as a Carpet: company of St. Paul offers to purchase all of the product that can be secured, paying $10 a ton. The company also will purchase any land on which the wire grass is growing or will pay for the privilege of stumpage. This company has been jn operation for many years and during this time has bought all of the wire grass land it could secure. A party of young people gave a picnic on Diamond Point last eve- ning. Games were played and the girls prepared the spread. The guests included Misses Gladys Vye, Ruth Wightman, Clara Decaire, Ger- trude Malone, Beryl Begsley, Ruby Henrionnet, Maude and Grace Mc Cawley and Messrs. Greg Malone, Will Chichester, Ronald Henrionnet, Will Russell, Oscar Hoffman and Lewis Larson. Miss Loretta Ma- lone chaperoned the party.

Philip Stubbes wrote in 1583 in his book on “The Anatomie of Abuses:” “For as concerning football 1 pro- test unto you it may rather be called a freendly kinde of fight than a play of recreation; a bloody and murthering practice than a felowly sporte of pas- tyme. For dooth not every one lye in waight for his Adverserié, seeking to overthrow him and to picke him on his nose, though it be on hard stones, 8o that by this meanes sometimes their necks are broken, sometimes their backs, sometimes their legs, sometimes their arms, sometimes one part thrust out of joynt, sometimes another; some- times the noses gush out with blood, sometimes their eyes start out—fight- ing, brawling, contention, quarrel pick- ing, murther, homicide and great effu- sion of blood, as experience dayly teacheth.” Branding Criminals In England. The branding of criminals was abolished in this country in 1778, Un- til then this punishment was inflicted .A open court, generally in the pres- ence of the judge, generally in the presence of the judge, the necessary implements—the iron brand, the chaf- ing dish and the iron gripper for keep- ing the hand steady—being always in readiness. The usual brand was an “R” applied to the left shoulder. Child stealing, etc., however, were at one time punished by branding the of- fender “R” on the shoulder (for rogue), on the right hand (for manslayer), and “T” on the left hand (for thief).—Pall Mall Gazette, She Knew Why. . “If you don’t give me a shilling,” said lttle Jimmy, “I shall tell about you kissing my sister.” “But, Jimmy,” protested Mr. Softly, “I've never even thought about kissing your sister.” “Haven’t you?”’ murmured little Jim- my in a puzzled tone. “Then I wonder why she told me to say that to you?'— London Tatler.

One feature of the institution that makes it unique is the model library for children, spiration to other cities, and one wonders if the genial old gentleman who i 80 devoted to his own grandchildren did not derive some of his inspiration from clever Miss Lucy Bigelow Dodge, who was his companion and one of the most interested persons at the dedication of the huge white marble palace that will be a monument of her grandfather's public spirit.
