Thomas Nelson Page, the famous writer of southern stories, was born in Hanover county, Virginia, April 27, 1853. He attended Washiugton and Lee Universities and later gra- duated from the law department of the university of Virginia. He prac- ticed law in Richmond from 1875 until 1893, when he definitely aban- doned the law for literature. Mr. Page has made a marked success in depicting the beauty and chivalry of the south in the days before the war, thongh he was only a lad when the war ended. Among the when the war ended. Among his famous stories are “Marse Chan,” “In 0ld Virginia,” “Red Rock,” and “The Old Gentleman of the Black Stock.” Congratulations to: = Arthur T. Hadley, president of Yale University, 56 years old today. Sir Christopher Furness, famous English shipbuilder, 60 years old to- day. W.

Depew, former Unit- ed States senator and chairman of the board of the New York Central lines, 78 years old today. Kill the Carnival. A representative of a carnival company is negotiating with the city officials for the privilege of showing here for a week during the summer. It is to be hoped that these officials will see their duty and do it. Be- midji does not want a carnival now or any other time. They always take out of town more money than they bring in and leave business in a stagnant condition until the family pocketbooks have recovered. No li- cense money taken will be enough' to compensate the business losses. Turn their proposition down! The Great Northern Depot. In the late nineties, the Great Northern railroad built a depot for Bemidji. It was a good building for those pioneer days and still compares favorably with those at Deer River, Cohassett, Swan River, Bagley, etc. It was built before the Miles block, before the First National bank building, before the Markham hotel, in fact, before Bemidji was much more than a trading post for lum- berjacks and Indians. It is older than what are now considered our oldest buildings. Bemidji needs a new Great North- ern depot. The present one is far too small to handle the traffic which comes through this city; it is an old dirty building, poorly ventilated and lacking modern = sanitary improve- ments. It has repaid its cost many times to the railroad in its useful- ness and should be replaced b; new, with the other improvements the city is making. According to the 1910 census fig- ures, the difference in population be- tween Bemidji -and Crookston is 2,500. This figure has been mater- ially lessened by the growth of this city in the past two years. During the coming sumnier, visitors will raise** Anc Wh For The Wer Anc For A WH Aski “f spak thro of t. R - which thou has adorned the world; and my self-love leads me to believe It. Nevertheless, might not some things In me still be improved?” “And what in thee, thinkest thou, admits of improvement? Speak! I am open to instruction,” said the in- dulgent god with a smile. “Perhaps,” returned the horse, “I phould be fleeter if my legs were taller and thinner. A long swan neck would not disfigure me. A broader breast would add to my strength. And, since thou hast once for all destined me to bear thy favorite, man—the saddle which the well meaning rider puts up- on me might be created a part of me.” “Good,” replied” Zeus, “wait a mo- | ment!” Zeus, with earnest countenance, pro- pounced the creative word. Then flowed life into the dust; then organ- 1zed matter combined; and there stood before the throne the ugly camel. The horse saw, shuddered and trem- bled with fear and abhorrence. “Here,” sald Zeus, “anp taller and thinner legs; here is a long swan- neck; here is a broader breast; here is the created saddle! Wilt thou, horse! that I should tramsform thee efter this fashion?” The horse still trembled. “Go!” continued Zeus. “Be instruct- ed, for this once, without being pun- ished. But to remind thee, with oc- casional compunction, of thy presump- tion—do thou, new creation, continue!” Zeus cast a preserving glance on the camel. “And never shall the horse behold thee without trembling.”~-From Lessing’s Fables. _— Ten Billion in Gold. It is estimated that in the last four centuries gold worth $10,000,000,000 has been obtained. Much of it is found on the surface while some is mined. In three years the fields of California produced $180,000,000, while in the same time Australia supplied the world with $300,000,000 in gold.
