° EE - VOLUME 10. NUMBER 75. 5 MAN IS FALLEN AND IS A" SINNER Dr. Gaebelein, Addressing Bemidji Conference, Declares Fact is Bas- is of Gospel Scheme. SATAN HAD DWELT IN HEAVEN Rebelled, Was Expelled and Dragged Many Companions Down to Hell With Him. CHRIST WILL COME AGAIN Dr. Ottman States Prophecy of Peter Says He Will Once More Assume Throne of David. Continuing his addTesses on the book of Genesis vesterday afternoon. Dr. Gaebelein told the Bemidji Bible conference that the entire Gospel scheme starts in the fact that man is fallen, is a sinner and must be saved. Dr. Gaebelein took up the matter of the fall of man, dwelling especially on the work of Satan in connection with the case. He said that at first Satan had dwelt in Heaven and had held a good place; that he had rebelled, had been expelled and with him dragged down to hell many companions. He is now on the watch to see the material world restored and man and woman set to care for it. “The process of temptation,” said Dr. Gaebelein, “is to first doubt the word of God; then contradict God’s special statements; and third, to al- low riches and love of material honor draw away from God.” Dr. Gaebelein took up other cases of the old testa- ment and continued the lectures this morning. ~ At the evening session Wednesday night, Dr. Ottman continued his dis- cussion of “Imperialism and Christ,” taking up the statements made by Peter and their relation to what is to come. Dr. Ottman said that on the day of Pentecost. Peter declared that Christ was raised from the dead and would again sit on David's throme. “Christ did not occupy the throme of David after the resurrection but as- cended to Heaven. Hence he will come again to sit on the throne Peter said he would occupy.” “Following the healing of the lame man at the gate beautiful, the apos- tles were arrested and tried. After the trial they were charged not to speak in Jesus' name. They took the second Psalm, where it prophetically speaks of Christ as being supreme, and Stephen pronounced sentence on the Jewish- nation. When before the most terrible court in the history of all nations, Stephen did not guail and look on with blanched face but stood up and pronounced the sentence of God on that nation. “The great dispensational change is noted in the eighth chapter of Acts where Phillip is sent to the Etheo- pian eunuch. It marks the cessation of the great struggle between the disciples of Christ and the Jewish na- tion and marks the beginning of the carriage of the Gospel to outside na- tions."” At the Wednesday morning meet- ign, Dr. Luccock spoke on “Progres-| sive Grace.” He elaborated on two points, the first being of the eagle taking her young on her back and bearing them and the second being of man mounting as one the wings of eagles. Dr. Luceock said that the movement of religion is in the stir- ring up and shaking out of a super- ficial contentment with ourselves and that it is true of eagles, children men and nations. “One thing we seek in the matter of Grace is that the beauty of the Lord may be upon us. We are to have the nature of God and get th2 point of view from the eagle’s alti- tude. Religion consists in the end of our plain, everyday life in the world —walking and not soaring.” Dr. Gaebelein followed Dr. Luccock and told of the flood. He recited the story of the sending out of the dove. “The first time it found no resting place, the second it returned with an olive branch, the third it did not re- turn at all. So it is with the Spirit of God. At first it found no recep- tion, then it found a resting place in the hearts of sinner; but when Christ comes to earth again, it will be to a new Heaven and earth and his 2bode will be everywhere.” This evening Dr. Gaebelein is scheduled to deliver an address on' “The Scope of the Gospel of John.” (Continued on last page.)

Cass Lake, July 24.—Special.— Last Sunday morning Mr. and Mrs. Tom and Ben Church and Tom’s dit- tle four year old son started across the railroad bridge which crosses the thoroughfare between Cass Lake and Pike bay, to pick raspberries in the forest reserve. They had good suc-| cess, but after dinner the little boy got tired and Tom started home with him, while the two ladies and Ben remained as they were having such good success, expecting to follow at nightfall. They did not come home during the night and at daybreak Monday morning Tom secured a team and with several friends started out to find them. At noon a report came back to town that they had not yet been found and the crating factory closed down and about eighty men started out on the hunt for the lost ones. At about two o'clock in the after- noen-the searchers located the place where they had slept during the night. It was found that they were walking directly away from town and one party of searchers started from town around the south end of Pike bay to head them off. U. S. Forester | George Farley headed this party. At dusk last evening they were found at the edge of a tamarack swamp where the women had beeu so fatigued that they could go no fur- ther. They had had no water to drink all day and while they heard the searchers blow horns and shoot {all day, they never got near enough to them so that they could make themselves heard. The section of the forest reserve in which they were lost lies north of Leech lake and east and south of the Great Northern railway and west of the Soo line and contains about six townships. There are no buildings in all this section except old logging camps. 1t was supposed that the lost ones would find their way out by some of the old logging roads, but they had left the one they were on heading straight through the woods for the sound of Cass Lake factory whistles and then got into the big swamp where they walked around in circles. Blueberries Plentiful. Cass Lake, July 25.—(Special)— L. H. Burns reports one of the best blueberry crops since he has been in the habit of buying in Cass Lake, having paid out over $1,000 for ber- ries the past two weeks. His banner day proved to be last Friday, when nearly all the Indian hereabouts can:e to town to see the circus and re- ceived $197 for berries brought in tand disposed of. Shipments are made daily to north- western Minnesota and North Dake- ta points. A man from Bemidji call- ed recently and after learning the price of berries, placed an order for forty full crates. Nearly all the ber- ries are picked nerth and east of Cass Lake, the c¢rop south and west nct being quite so plentiful. Fraternity House Threatened. Minneapolis, July 25.—Warned by two previous attempts at burglary, members of the Theta Delta Chi fra- ternity, 1521 University avenue, S. E. students at the University armed themselves with automatic revolvers and with a fussilade of shots early Wednesday drove four men from the chapter house, one of whom is believ- ed to have been wounded. The shots were fired by Archie E Payne, a professional singer and stu- dent whose home is in Red Oak. Io- wa.. The wounded man was helped {to his feet by his comrades and the BASEBALL LR EEEEE AR A RN 22 ® & STANDING OF THE CLUBS. # AR R R E R R American League Won Lost P.C.

Cass Lake, July 25.—Special—At the village election in Farris, miles west of here, in March the four election was carried by one vote. It was claimed by the defeated candi- dates that the judges of election had carried the election for their faction by putting the ballots of a number of opposition votes under the ballot box. The matter was taken into dis- trict court of Hubbard county and Judge Wright rendered a decision de- claring the contestants entitled to the offices and the others were or- dered to turn over their offices and records. The ticket which is now de- clared by the court to have been the legaly elected one is: President, T H. Mackey; trustees, Gust Ersbo, Ed Dodd, J. D. Mackey; clerk, E. H. Reid; treasurer, Geo. C. McGuire; as- sessor, J. S. Mackey; justices, F. J Holbrook, Loreni Koll; constable, Wm. Gilbert. BAD WISCONSEN CLOUDBURST. Milwaukee, July 25.—A storm ap- proaching a cloudburst, swept through northern Wisconsin during floods which swept away dams and bridges, washed out railway tracks in various places, paralyzed business in several cities, and caised damage totalling several hundred thousands of dollars. So far as known there has been no loss of life. The city of Wausau, from reports received, has suffered the worst from the floods following the giving away of the Brokaw dam near Tomahawk, six miles north of there. The col- lapse of the structure let locse a tremendous voluma of water, which tore down the Wisconsin river at 2 terrific rate, carrying away bridges and sweeping off near shore buildings which lay in its path. The flood caused the river at Wau- seu to overflow its banks and en- croached upon a considerable portion of the business district, putting the street railway power plant and wa- terworks system out of commissiorn. i Tonight the city is without electric light and street cars are still tied up. Farris Election Tame. Cass Lake, July 25.—(Special)— The Farris school’ election, contrary to the usual run of such affairs in that district turned out to be a very one-sided affair. T. H. Mackey was elected treasurer and E. M. Chase, clerk, by a vote of 29 to 7. It is thought that the decision of the court reversing the village election for fraud has had its effect. the last twenty-four hours, causlng( BEMIDJI, MINNESOTA, THURSDAY EVENING, JULY 25, 1912 | 200 SOLDIERS KILLED. Camp Douglass, July 25.—About 200 soldiers were technically killed, many wounded, scores of spies amd prisoners captured, and bridges and railroads blown up, as a result of the war department’s plans begun Wed- nesday to simulate actual war con- ditions for the United States regular and state militia troops. Between here and Camp McCoy, thirty-four miles to the west, the government has arranged a battle- field in which in ten days, 8,000 troops with blank cartridges, cannon and other equipment are to under- take the campaign on an extensive scale. Wednesday’s casualiies were the result of the advance of the reg- ular troops known as the Red army, {from Camp McCoy to a point almost |nalf way here. The theory is that the Reds have invaded the hostile country by crossing the Mississippi river at La Crosse and that without the knowledge of the Blues stationed here they are advancing to take pos- session. It is expected that 500,000 shots will be fired in the maneuvers. For the next two days, the armies ex- pect to be out of communication with towns except through sources for of- ficial business. £ Minnesota Automobile Tour. St. Paul, Minn., July 25.—The fifth annual reliability run of the Minnesota State Automobile associa- tion-which was to have started from this city today, with Winnipeg as the objective point, has been postponed to August 8.

ON MARKET IN THREE WEEKS Oscar Nelson, slide trombone play- ler in the Bemidji band, has written and-had copyrighted a descriptive ov- erture with the sinking of the Titan- ic as the theme. The overture opens with a toot of the whistle as the giant steamer is leaving the dock on her maiden voyage and closes with the strains of “Nearer My God to Thee” as she plunges beneath the surface of the Atlantic. Mr. Nelson says that at present the overture is only arranged for the pia- no but that orchestra and band scores are being worked out and will be ready sometime in August. The pia- no part is being printed now and he expects it will be on sale in Bemidji music stores in about three weeks. If the Bemidji band plays at the state fair for a week, it will be introduced there. The wreck of the Tifanic has been the subject of many musical compo- sitions since the ill fated vessel went down but Mr. Nelson is the first mu- sician in this part of the country to have his composition published. “The Titanic” will be played by the Bemid- ji band at a concert in the near fu- ture. . SENATE RUSHES BILLS. Washington, July 25.—With the end of the congressional session de- pendent upon the speed with which the senate clears the docket, that body made record progress Wednes- day. Among the important bill and reso- lutions adopted were: The sundry civil appropriation bill, carrying $116,000,000, and providing for the continuance of a tariff board, the mil- itary academy appropriation bill, car- rying over 2,000,000, the Alaskan civil government bill, establishing a legislature and partial home rule in the territories, a resolution directing the secretary of war to investigate the claims of Americans,.the redress of injuries from Mexican outbreaks along the international border in 1911, the revised Alaskan mining claim- measure, a bill making a fed- eral standard for apples shipped in barrels, a bill authorizing $750.000 for a memorial amphitheater at the Arlington national cemetery near Washington, a bill to regulate sponge fishing in the Gulf of Mexico and Florida waters.

In the TEN CENTS PER WEEK. DIRT ON STREETS CAUSES CRITICISH Ire of Business lfllANIlfl. Whn< Wind Blows Filth Into Shops and Offices. | CITY IMPLEMENTS NOT USED Investigation Shows Sweeper Was Idle Four Days From Saturday to Wednesday. MORE SPRINKLING IS NEEDED Those Interviewed Unanimous in Condemning Present Antiquated and Inadequate Methods. Business men who have suffered from the dust for many weeks in si- lence, Wednesday rose up in wrath, figuratively speaking, when the strong wind blowing from the west whipped the dirt into the air and threw it into all kinds of shops and offices. The streets had not been brushed since Saturday evening and had not been flushed for several days so that the accumulations of practically four days were dried out and ready for the wind to use as playthings. The business people talked with by the Pioneer this morning were unanimous in their condemnation ot the way in which the streets are kept. The majority believed that the flush- er system would have been used in the first place, but that even with the sweeper and sprinkler they should not be left idle. One mer- chant went so far as to state that his stock was injured less with the old sand road than under present con- ditions. It appears to be the general senti- ment down town that the streets at present are not cared for as well as they should be for the amount of money that the city is expending each month. The Pioneer talked with a few business men this morning con- cerning the large amount of dirt on the streets and a brief of their inter- views follow: C. J. Woodmansee, manager of the Majestic—The dust is bad for our business. I think the cleaning sys- tem is not the best there is by a long shot. A flusher is the thing. ‘A. P. White, Northern National Bank—Dust bothers us quite a bit in the bank. I believe that the streets should be cleaned oftener. T. J. Burke, Northern Grocery company—TI put my part of the mat- ter up to the council yesterday. Our corner has been neglected by the sprinkler. F. S. Lycan, of the Markham ho- tel—The street in front of the Mark- ham was so filthy that I took the hose and worked on it for an hour before it was clean. The sweeper and sprink- ler are bad enough but not to use either is the limit. Dust plays havoe with our linen. A. G. Wedge, of the First National Bank—The dusts was certainly bad yesterday when the wind was blow- ing. David Gill, of Gill Brothers—The dust bothers us. It hurts the stock ‘We are not getting the care we are entitled to. ‘W. N. Bowser, of the O'Leary-Bow- ser company—Does the dust bother us? It does very much. They only sweep once in a while and it should be swept every day. Furthermore, the sweepings should be carted away before the stores are open because they easily blow in the wind. The dust is hard to compete with and is becoming intolerable. Berman Emporium—The last few days the dust has been very bad. We need the streets cleaned every night and sprinkled during the day. Chas. Cominsky, of Schneider Brothers—On a windy day we need a dust protector_in front of the door. The dirt in the air is filthy and dam- ages any stock it falls on. A. L. Barker—Does the dust both- er us? ' I should say it does. It is the worst thing with which we have to contend, and especially on a windy,; day. We could dust twice a day in here and still be dirty. It is hard on the jewelers as the dust hurts their eyes and work at the same time. We need the sweeper every day. Abercrombie’s—It’s dust, dust, dust all the time. When they sweep desire to hasten other legislation, the, at night, the dirt lays so long in the guiters that it blows away again be- foré-the wagons take it up.. MINNESOTA = - ISTORICAL |
