Minneapolis, May 28.—(Special to the Pioneer at 3:30)—Senator Smith chairman of the congressional com- mittee which was named to investi- gate the Titanic disaster, submitted the report of the committee today. The report said that the disaster was caused by the failure of Captain Smith to heed the warning of ice- bergs given by other vessels; the fail- ure of Captain Lord of the Califor- nian, to heed the distress signals of the Titanic; the failure of the Brit- ish board of trade to properly in- spect the vessel before it started on its trip; and the unfamiliarity of of- ficers and crew with each other. The committee officially decided that the speed of the Titanic was 24 1-2 miles an hour at the time of the accident. . May Find Rahiier’s Slayer. Deer River, May 28.—A settler living east of Big Fork and a short distance from the claim of Edward | Erway states that Erway is in his old trapping grounds in Alaska. Er- way is charged with the murder of George Rahier in July, 1911. It is likely that the clue will be followed up and if found correct, steps will be taken to bring the man back. Rahier was killed by a ball from a rifle supposed to have been fired by Erway. It was known that there had been bad feeling between tne itwo men and Erway’s disappearance after the killing led to the belief that he was the guilty party. There were no witnesses to the shooting. Rahier was well known in Deer Riv- er and the Big Fork country and al- so had a brother in International Falls. It is though that Erway made his way north to Canada and escaped in that direction.

One daya well-known politician was enjoying a chat with a friend at a ho- tel, when a strange young man came up and said: “Can I see you for a moment, Mr. Dash - “Certainly,” said Mr. Dash, rising. The young man led him across the foom and seemed to have something Important to say to him. Arrived in 8 corner, the stranger whispered in the politiclan’s ear: “1 am of the staff of an evening paper, and I should like you to tell me what you think of the situation in the east.” Mr. Dash looked a lttle puzzled at first, then he said: “Follow me.” 2 4 Leading the way, he walked through the reading-room, through a Dassage :to the dining-room, and drawing his visitor into the corner behind the hat rack, he whispered: 12:06 pm International Falls W-:z really don't know anything about. BEMIDJI, MINNESOTA, TUESDAY. EVENING, MAY 28, 1912. T0 LOOK OVER LAND State Immigration Commissioner Maxfield Coming Sunday with Crop Reporters. LEAVE ON THE M. and I. SPECIAL - Herbert J.

Hill was in the city and ad- jacent country looking over the farms with a view towards selecting certain ones later on which to carry on the Great Northern experiments.

Buckley of New York, known in the Methodist Episcopal church as the “bishop-maker” and for thirty- two years editor of the Christian Ad- vocate ,one of the strongest church papers, today withdrew from active service. ) The action of Dr. Buckley was not entirely unexpected, as for the last week there has been considerable talk among the delegates as to his re-election.

Their regular pitcher could not play hecause of a sore arm. - |kingdom. 3. In A BIBLE STUDY. The -Establishment of the Divine Sonship of Christ, REV. C. W. FOLEY, Let us remember that numbers have literal value in Scripture. The tumber three is the number of Di- vine fulness—God fully manifested. Three times God declares Jesus to be His Son. 1. At His baptism (Matt. 3:13-17). This marked the begin- ning of His ministry, which was one of self-sacrifice, substitution, giving His life a ransom, dying in the sin- ner’s stead. 2. At the transfigura- tion (Matt, 17:5) in glory, i. e., ma- jesty of. the King and glory of the resurrection, in power (Rom. 1:4). This third dec- laration is the establishment of the truth. . The word “declared” in the text, ‘| means to bound or limit, and in this particular place, to characterize with precision, to set forth distinctively (Greene). “Having here the signifi- cance of establishment” (Vincent). Jesus declared His resurrection to be the limit or bound, in' His answer to the carping Pharisees—Matt. 12:38- 40. This truth is for man’s conviction and constitutes the full measure of man’s responsibility—John 16:10. We see this set forth in the theme of the apostles—Acts 1:21, 22. The testimony to this must be a complete one. To lose this truth is to lose all hope, because our hope depends upon the Divine Sonship of Jesus, com- pletely attested to by His resurrection from the dead. Read the fifteenth chapter of first Corinthians. Romans 1:4 comprehends the res- urrection of others, His own, for in His resurrection is our's realized. To deny the Divine Somnship of Jesus then, is to deny God. Many are let- ting this slip in these days of respect- able (?) educated, polished infidelity —apostasy. The word “declared” is used in antithesis with the word “born” in verse three. As to his human nature (on His Mother’s side) He was born as oth- ers—Matt. 1:18-25. - As to His di- vine nature, He was God declared. How heinous the sin of accepting the human and rejecting the Divine tes- timony—John 6:42. To know Jesus after the flesh only, ds to know Him not at all—2 Cor. 5:16. 'Both of these Were made necessary by sin— Heb, 2:17; 4:15, 16, with John 14:7- 9; 5:36-37, and 6:42. The ground of this is seen in the words “spirit of holifiess,” for it was according to this, or in accord with this spirit. We are to understand by | “spirit,” not the Houly Spirit apart from Jesus as a person, but the inher- ent holiness of Jesus which contrast- “seed of Dayid” expresaion TEN CENTS PER WEEK TWO SERVICES ON DECORATION DAY Grand Army Veterans and Ladies of the Circle Plan Memorial Exercises. 3 IN CITY HALL AND CEMETERY Morning Meeting at Gréenwood In Remembrance of Those Buried From Bemidji.
