To have at- tempted to communicate with Hubbard county authorities would have caused delay and Bemidji rushed aid to the suf- fering families. Three autos made -the trip and they were brought to Bemidji and properly taken care of, administered to by a skilled physician, nursed by a trained nurse and re- stored to their former health and vigor. The bill from individuals came to the city council Wednes- day night. It was considered only prép‘gr that Hubbard county pay it. The city attorney was instructed to communicate with the Hubbard county authorities. Her gister county’s chief city extended the hand of mercy when badly needed and Hubbard county cannot well afford to ignore the few dollars it involved.

London, Nov. 2. (By Mail)—A royal air force report relates that a British two seater, on patrol, sighted a number of Fokker biplanes which were immediately engaged. Dashing into the German formation, the British pilot succeeding in sending one Fokker spinning to earth. The Cermans had by this time recov- ered from theiy surprise, and made a concerted attack upon the daring British plane; pouring in a perfect hail of bullets.~ Though the British pilot maneuvered very swiftly to throw the enemy gunners off their |8 mark, one unlucky burst severed the left aileron wires of his machine, so that it fell in a sheer side-slip for 2,060 feet. The observer, though wounded, clearly and cooly realized the danger, climbed out on the bottom plane, and by manipulation of his own weight, restored the balance of the| machine. By remaining out on the plane during the whole flight this wonnded observer enabled his pilot to bring back and safely land the machine behind the British lines.: 5" DE_ ADVERTISE IN PIONEER WANT COLUMNIF YOU WANT TO RENT.
