COMPANY WILL HAVE
A NEW SET OF UNIFORMS
The Olive-Drab Color Will Be Placed
in General Use by the
Militia.
Captian Otto, of Company K,
Third Regiment, Minnesota National
Guard, Bemidji's quota of national
defenders, has been notified that the
militia boys are to receive a new
olive-drab service uniform.
The notice to that effect is as
follows:
"General Orders, No. 17.
"The issue to the Minnesota
National guard of the service (ohve
drab) uniforms will be made as
rapidly as the articles required for
and to be procured by purchase are
received.
"in order to complete the full
ecquipment of all troops this year,
the strictest economy must be prac
ticed and no surplus stock for con
tingencies or exchange of sizes will
be available.
"Company, battery commanders
and rsgimental adjutants will there
fore submit, without delay, requisi
tions for actual number of service
coats, breeches and caps needed by
the enlisted men now under their
command.
"When received by troops the ser
vice uniforms will be worn on all
occasions of duty at home stations,
except parades and other occasions
of ceremony when the dress uniform
may be used at the discretion of
commanding officers.
"The issue of the khaki field uni
form will not be discontinued but
will be used as heretofore in annual
camp.
"By command of the Governor,
"Fred B. Wood,
"Adjutant General."
After the weekly drill last evening
the members of Company were
measured for uniforms conforming
with above order, which will be
secured in the very near future.
NEW REBEKAH LODGE WAS
INSTITUTED LAST NIGHT
'Fairview," of Mizpah, Is Name of
New Lodge.Big Bemidji Delega-
tion Present.
Fairview," Rebekah lodge No.
128, is the name of the new Rebekah
lodge which was instituted in Miz
pah last night by Mrs. Evelyn Just
of Crookston, state president of the
Rebekah s.
The instituting of the lodge was an
event of much importance at Mizpah
and was attended by a large num
ber of Rebekah members from out
side lodges, among whom were
twenty-eight members of the Bemidji
Rebekahs, ten from Blackduck and
two from Bagley.
The degree team of the Bemidji
lodge, under the direction of Mrs.
C. L. Atwood, captain, exemplified
the secret work and performed so as
to receive much praise from the
state president. The work of insti
tuting the lodge was not concluded
until the early-morning hours, but
the occasion was a very pleasant
one, despite the tedious work
necessary to start the lodge.
The lodge starts out with thirteen
charter members, and despite the
"hoodoo" which the sceptic connect
with the number thirteen, a bright
future is predicted for the "Fair
view" Rebekah lodge.
During the night a splendid
supper was served, and refreshments
were also served this morning prior
to the departure of the train for Be
midji.
The following are the officers of
the lodge who were elected at last
night's meeting-
N. G., Amy Buckmaster, V. G.,
Hattie Seaman rec, sec, Belle Corn
stock treas., Etta Francis.
The following are the members of
the lodge, in addition to the officers-
SistersMabel Potter, Myrtle Mc
Farland, Sarah Hanchett.
BrothersA. H. Hanchett, S.
Buckmaster, D. V. Francis, E. W.
Francis, F. C. Grover and Edmund
Hendrickson.
The Odd Fellows of Mizpah have
just completed an elegant new lodge
building, which will be dedicated on
December 11. The meeting hall in
the building is very conveniently
arranged, being provided with a
kitchen and other necessary acces
sories of a first-class lodge hall.
Raw Furs Are Lower.
The price to be paid for furs this
winter will be lower than those
which prevailed last year, acccord
ing to the editor of the International
Falls Echo, who has been investigat
ing the matter, and who says:
"A Chicago raw fur house, which
does a large business with Northern
Minnesota trappers, has issued its
first price list of the season, with an
explanation to the effect that as the
fur season is just beginning, values
are not yet fully established, but
they are given with as much accur
acy as possible.
-'Taken as a whole, prices for raw
fur this fall will not be as high as
last, according to the circular in
question, which is conceded to be
one of the most reliable {issued. In
a few cases better prices will be

obtained, but the average will be
lower, although in very few instances
have there been any_ very great
reductions."
