Many interesting tales regarding experiences while in the service have been told by returned Bemidji boys, but one of the most harrowing cx- periences endured by any occurred |a short time ago when the U. S. S. Richard Buckley, a mine sweeper, was blown up by te mine and a num- ber of the crew were killed. Warren Edwards, one of the Bemidji boys who left this city with the Minne- sota naval militia in 1917, was a member of the crew. He was forced to cling to wreckage for hours be- fore he was rescued by a relief ship, but was not injured in any manner and suffered no bad effects from the exposure. BIRCHMONT BEACH DANCE. The Syncopators’ orchestra fur- nished the music at the Birchmont dance last evening, and although the attendance was not as large as had been anticipated, a most enjoyable evening was spent. Next Saturday will be the last dance of the season at the summer resort, as Birchmont will close Menday, having had the most successful season since it was opened. Guests from all over the United States have been entertained, including millionaires and multi- millionaires, and more reservations were asked than could be filled. Among the distinguished guests was a countess, her two children and nurse from Rome, Italy. More cot- tages are needed at Birchmont and will doubtless be put up next year. Many tourists pronounced Birch- mont the most beautiful summer hotel in the state and expressed a desire to return here next year. The bathing and fishing facilities are ex- cellent and the golf course is an- other large attraction. WERE ON THE TUSCANIA. Gully Advance: ‘““The Anderson boys, of Gully, who were aboard the ill-fated torpedoed Tuscania, have returned from overseas, and are now in Montana. One of the hoys, Nels, has taken a claim in that state, where no doubt he intends to make his home. A story of their narrow escape from death and going -to the bottom of the deep blue sea, would make interesting reading, to say nothing about their experiences in devastated France. The Tuscania was a British transport which car- ried American forces to France and met its doom off the coast of Ire- land, in February, 1918. When the Tuscania was going down, never more to rise, the Anderson boys by accident met, and bid each other good-bye, as they believed it was their last good-bye in this world, and then jumped overboard into the deep, ice-cold waters of the ocean, where they managed to keep above the briny deep for four hours, when they were picked up by life boats. An Oklee soldier boy was aboard the same ship, and it is supposed he went down with the Tuscania as nothing !more has been beard from him.” BERG-ELLINGSON. Gust Berg of Mill Park and Miss Anna Ellingson of Sauk Center, Minn.,, were married Wednesday evening at the First Scandinavian Lutheran parsonage, Rev. Osmund Johnson officiating. BIRCHMONT SUNDAY DINNER. A special Sunday dinner will be served at Birchmont Beach Summer hotel tomorrow and all Bemidji peo- ple are invited to participate.

EIGHT WINNIPEG STRIKE LEADERS FACING TRIAL (By United Press.) Winnipeg, Man., Sept., 6.—Pre- parations for the trial of eight labor leaders of Winnipeg, on a joint charge of conspiracy growing out of the famous strikes here, were being made today by Dominion authori..es. The Assize court meets early in Oc- tober and it is planned to call up this case soon after it opens. The defendants are: Rev. William Ivens, Aldermen A. A. Heaps, John Queen, George Armstrong, R. E. Bray, R. J. Johns, R. B. Russel and W. A, Pritchard. At the preliminary hearing, which was concltded August 18, more than one hundred witnesses were heard and over 1,650 exhibits were pro- duced in court. Sensational disclosures are looked for at the coming trial. At the re- cent hearing, the crown read into the record, notes alleged to have been written by Rev. Ivens, which stated the defendants had “favorea” direct action, a revolution either bloody or bloodless.” RATE REDUCTION ORDERED. Springfield, Ill., Sept. 6.—Rates of the Western Union Telegraph com- pany in Illinois have been ordered reduced to the former charges, made before the wires were placed under federal control. DISCOVERED VAST DEAD CITY Photographs Taken by Alrman Over Mesopotamia Reveal Site of Once Vast Metropolis. Lieut. Col. J. A. Beazeley gives in Geographical Journal (London) an in- teresting example of how photography from an airship can extend our knowl- edge. When making an aerial recon- maissance in Mesopotamia over terri- tory occupied by the Turks he took a series of photographs near Samarra which shows distinctly the ruins of an ancient city extending 20 miles along the Tigris river and two miles and a half wide, large enough to shelter easily 4,000,000 inhabitants. This city would never have been noticed on earth, since it IS not marked by anything. but.scattered.hillocks, al- though pottery and medals had been discovered on the site. But the photo- graphs show clearly its whole plan, with its fortifications, canals for ir- rigation, and streets. The fall of the airplane within the enemy lines and the capture of its passengers did not permit Colonel Beazeley to pursue his researches, but since the British occupied the territory an archeological expedition, guided by the photographs, has begun to explore the dead city. Development of Army Searchlight. A review of the work of the army engineer corps in the war, first Is- sued by the war department, says that the corps produced & new form of searchlight more powerful than any that had preceded it in any army, with which the Second field army had been partially equipped. *“It weighed,” the report says, ‘“one-eighth as much as lamps of former design, cost only one- third as much, was about one-fourth as large in bulk, and threw a light 10 per cent stronger than any other port- able projector in existence.” Still fur- ther to perfect the searchlight, our en- gineers were at work on a remote con- trol when hostilities ceased.—Scientific American.
