VOLUME 11, 172, TRUST COMPANY MAY BE FORMED’ Men From Hanska Talk of Qapital- izing New Institution At $100,000. TO0 HANDLE LIVESTOCK LOANS A, 0. Ouren To Head Move—Prefers TO Secure Co-operation Of Local Business Men. According to J. J. Opsahl and through whose efforts A. O. Ouren of Hanska has become interested in this section of the country, Bemidji may become the home of a new instita- tion which will pe known as another state bank of a trust company with a capitalization of $100,000. The aim of the new enterprise is not to confiict with the local banks here, but “to fill a long felt want,” as Mr. Hanska puts it, in the way of making livestock loans to settlers and farmers in this section of the state. It is understood that Akeley is making a strong bid for this in- stitution, but if the co-operation of the banks and business men of this section take an interest in the work, Bemidji will be given preference. Sixteen quarter sections were re- cently purchased by men from the vicinity of Hanska, who are making plans for the opening of first class dairy farms in Beltrami county. Mr. Ouren, leader in the move- ment, was formerly a state dairy and| food inspector, a farmer, banker and years ago was. one of J. J. Hill's cat- tle men. He is enthusiastic about the future of this county and will be a valuable asset to the community. He may be assured of every assistance when he comes to Bemidji and every encouragement should be given “live wire,” such as Mr. Ouren. PROGRAM TO BE WINNER. Freshman-Junior Literary Society Preparing Unigue Entertainment, Not to be excelled by their older literary rivals the Junior-Freshman Literary Society of the Bemidji High school are now preparing an original entertainment which they will give on November 6 in the High school assembly room. A spe- cial feature of the program will rep- vesent a printing office in which will be employed the editors, reporters and other branches connected with the publication of a newspaper. Humorous incidents which are often seen in a newspaper office will be displayed by the students who are now preparing for their depart- ments. Miss Bliza Loe and other members of the faculty are assist- ing the students with their work and every possible arrangement will be made to make this entertainment a suceess, “RAG TIME KIDS” BACK. Will Give Dance In City Hall On Tuesday Evening. After several weeks vacation the “Rag Time Kids” will give another dance in the City Hall Wednesday night. The music furnished by these young men has been a special attrac- tion to the young people of the city for the past year, but owing to the absence of the piano player the two- piece orchestra was forced to dis- band. They have again organized and promise to deliver their regular class of music for the dancers Tues- day evening. License Business Good. Since Wednesday Clerk of Court Fred Rhoda issued marriage licenses to Alhert Gale to wed Flora Marie Berg, and to Fred C. Peterson to wed Lina L. Affolter of Zipple, and to Erick Sundholm to wed Ella Peter- son. The license business has been exceptionally good this month and promises to rival the number issued last June. One other license was is- sued to a Bemidji man who requested that it be kept from the press until Monday. Building Nearing Completion. Rapid Progress is being made by the crew of men on the North West- ern Telephone building on Beltrami avenue. The walls have been plast- ered and a concrete floor has been laid and all the heavy work about the building completed. Three stoves are now kept burning continually to dry the walls. Monday the men will commence work on the wood finish, but the company will not occupy the building for at least two months. Prgparations are under way, for a dance to be given in the near fu- ture for the benefit of the Bemidji Basket Ball Team under the auspices of the Bemidji Athletic Club. The dance will be held in the city hall, ‘but a definite date has not yet been AR KRR X KKK KKK Who Will Lecture On * ‘The Man Who Can” *i****i*ii*ii«k* . William R. Bennett Speak and Sing at the M.

Dr. Bennett is a man with a repu- tation; he is not seeking one. He is regarded over the entire United States as a leader of his profession. As a preacher he was successful, his congregations always completely fill- ing his church, but as a lecturer he has placed himself on the top notch. Dr. Bennett is also a singer and will give several selections during the evening’s entertainment. He is sent here by the Redpath Ly- ceum Bureau, the result of a contract made with the Womens’ Study Club of this city last spring. Three en- tertainments are to be given here dur- ing the winter months by this bu- reau. These ehtertainments are ex- pensive and the Club expects only to make expenses in bringing them to the city. It is the desire of members of this womens’ organization, whizh in advertising Bemidji, to show the surrounding country that high class entertainment is appréciated in Be- midji, something which never here- tofore has been done. Season tickets for the entertain- ments can be secured -at Nezter’s Drug Store for a cost of two dollars, while a ticket for each individual entertainment sells for one dollar. is a rival to the Commercial club | | UNLOADING ENGINE. John Moberg Ships Large Threshing Machine To Bemidji, - John Moberg started a crew of men at work yesterday afternoon unload- ing a large threshing engine which he purchased in North Dakota last spring and which has been used in the Dakota flelds this fall, Mr. Mo- berg will store the machine in Be- midji for the winter but ‘will probably ship it back to Dakota in the spring in charge of a competent en- gineer.

Noil Twomey, will be vresented here for the first time at the Bemidji Athletic Club on Friday evening, Nov. 21, In making this dramatization, Mr. Twomey has adhered closely to Mrs. Porter’s charming story and has re- tained every one of the now famous evening same *[characters that appear in the book. Consequently “Freckles,” the plucky waif who guards the“great Limber- lost; the swamp Angel, .of whom Freckles dreams; McLean, who ‘be- friends Freckles; Mrs. Duncan, who gives a mother’s love and a home to Freckles; Duncan, of McLean’s timber gang; the Bird Woman; the Man-of Affairs; Lord and Lady O- Moore, who come from Ireland in quest of a lost relative; Vessner, a timber thief, who' wants rascality | made easy; Jack, a villian, to whom thoughts of repentance comes too late; as well as Sears, a camp cook, all appears to advantage in the im- portant and effective live studies.

Retail Automobile Dealers To Meet In Minneapolis Next Month. Efforts will be made by C. W. Jew- ett, President of the Minnesota Re- tail Automobile Dealers’ Asscoiation, to land the convention of this organi- zation for Bemidjl next summer. Owing to the fact that many of the dealers residing in the southern part of the state, who have never been in this section of the state, the idea may be carried out successfully. The|- bringing of these men to Bemidji would be a big boost for this city and cars of every description would be shown during their stay . here. All of the conventions so far have been in Minneapolis; as at this point all of the dealers can attend with- out inconvenience. If the convention is held durig the summer the trip could be made by auto which would be an inducement for many inter- ested in cars to make the trip as special attractions would be ar- ranged for.

CHIEF AND FORCE ON TRAIL Headed by Chilef of Police George Lane the Bemidji police force is now searching for William Earle, who mystertously disappeared from Be- midji with a Colt revolver owned by'| A. B. Palmer. According to the Chief of Police, Earle had been about the city for the past two months and told several here that he was in this sactlon of the state for his health and ‘was also trying to sell Buick auto- ‘mobiles. For several days he employed by Call England as insur- ance solicitor and appeared to be ambitious and a good salesman. ‘When A. B. Palmer held a public demonstration of the Majestic Range, Mr. Earle spent most of this time about the store and made himself familiar with the stock. Mr. Palmer did not object to his presence as he was neat appearing and made many sales by demonstrating the various articles. On several occasions he walked out of the city limits with local parties wishing to purchase high powered rifles and as he was fa- miliar with fire arms, demonstrated the handling of each. Several sales were made through him that would have otherwise probably not been made and when asked to try a Colt Wednesday noon Mr. Palmer did not have the least suspicions and al- lowea him to borrow it. ted that he would bring it back at 2:30, but has not shown up. The gun was valued at $15 and Mr. Pal- mer immediately notified the Chief of Police. Police throughout the state were immediately notified and the authorities at Minneapolis were asked to search for him as he gave his residence as that city. As no trace of the missing man can be found Chief Lane fears that he may have committed suicide, but was _|no indications lead to this theory as he appeared to be happy up to the time of his disappearance, although he complained of ill health. While in the city he stayed at the Brink- man Hotel. . NORMAL STUDENTS TAKE TRIP, Drive To Opsata School East of City To Learn Methods Used.

Since skating has become the most popular sport of the season a move- ment has been started among the| young men of the city to organize a hockey team. The material * avail- able for a team in Bemidji is consid- ered the best that could be found in the state and it is probable that lit- tle trouble would be experienced in organizing a fast team to repreaent this city.

High School Team Promises To Rank High-for Championship. That the Bemidji school will have a basket ball team which will be in the .race for the championship- of North- ern Minnesota, is a certainty as the candidates reporting for prac- tice every evening show rare skill and are already showing ability that is seldom seen among amateur play- ers. Lloyd Tanner is out for for- ward again this year and promises to be one of the fast ones in the game. Tanner starred in the games played last year and is considered the best basket shooter on the blue and white [team. The first game will be played the first week in December with the Bagley High school quint. High JARCHOW SELLS GUERNSEYS. Sire and Heifer Shipped to Ada Farmer From- Bemidji.

B, .Pierce, 182 Northrop Field, Nov. 15.—The championship game of football which is to decide the winner of the conference title between Minnesota and Chicago Universities begun this afternoon at 2 o’clock. The snow was falling briskly, placing-the field in a slippery condi- tion giving the appearance of a vast area of muck and mire. At the beginning the betting was as much as twenty to ome, later changing from ten to eight in favor of Minnesota. At the opening of the game many bets were made on even terms. Never before in the history of such a crowd. The college songs and cheering far eclipses anything ever before witnessed. Before the kickoff both Chicago aad Minnesota bands paraded around the gridiron in full dress uniform play- ing their liveliest music. Some of the Chicago rooters start- ed something when they raised a huge banner bearing the words, “We Are the Winners.” What, for a time threatened to end in a free for all fight, was finally ended by the in- _ terference of ushers and police and resulted in the lowering of the ban- ner, with the understanding that it be raised only when the Windy city team had won. Every member of the Minnesota team was reported to be in good shape today, and the Gophers will go into the battle ccnfident of their ability to win the Western confer- ence title. The players were given light excrcise this morning and this afternoon were scheduled to go through signal drill, endicg with run. singing of FIRST QUARTER.
