The (Bemidji) Pioneer
May 22, 1903

                   HORSEWHIPPED
                   
                   Lumberjack Insults One of Bemidji's
                   Ladies and Receives a Lashing.
                   
                   Last evening a drunken lumberjack wandered
                 into a certain store on Third street, and 
                 after buying a drink of soda water to wash
                 the squirrel whiskey which he had partaken
                 of some time before, slipped quietly back
                 through the store into the yard. The owner
                 of the yard, a prominent lady, attempted 
                 to induce the man who makes his home in 
                 the "tall pines" to move along, and upon
                 his refusal to do so, procured a board and
                 hammered him till it was in splinters, and
                 afterwards with a whip with which she lashed
                 him "good and plenty," driving him away in
                 short order.
