olsnt Society TOR . proper celebra-
ton on St Patrick's Day.
We learn that A G. Perkins, ESQ.
has been appointed Surveyor Gen.
eral Of Logs and Lumber for the
Port Of Duluth. A good appoint
ment. -
The ST. Louis River Improvement
bill has Become a law, and there
are many hopes that that stream
will be put in logging condition.
We regret to learn that Mr.. L. d.
Collins has lost one of his twin
children. It died in Canada, Mrs.
Collins being on visit to friends.
From The Tribune.
! J. E. Kno wilton has been appoint
ed special administrator OF TIE es-
tate of John Pugsley, deceased.
The heaving Of the foundation of
the new Clark block, by means of
the frost, has caused the front wall
of the west side Of, that building to
crack from the bottom to The sap.
And now comes some other par.
ties who haze examined the so-called
silver ore from Chester creek, and
who say that Squire Fleischman's
assay 'psonouncing iron, was really
no assay at gil. .Hew's a fellow to
get at the truth of that matter?
For the ory-elesenth time, we
hear that Duluth now has "a, sure
thing" on al Touring mill. This
time it is.to be built by Minneap-
oils party near munger, Markell &
Co.'S. elevator, aud is to contain six
run OF stoneS. Well, a Touring mill
is certainly one Of the institutions
that could be made to pay here and
we hope that it will be built.
Hon. H. N. Setter, who went to
Washington recently to defend the
city in the action commenced by
our Wisconsin neighbors against
eur canal, returned on Tuesday.
We learn that he filed demurrer
in the case but that the hearing
thereon will probably not take place
until about;the last Of April. He
thinks he has "lhe dead wood on
the Wisconsin chaps, and We rather
guess he has. Mr.. S. reports that
his journey home was by no means
a monotonous one, as on the Balli-
more & Ohio road, the train that
he WAS on had serious collision
with another one, aud then down
in Wisconsin, some place, the train
that he was on ran off the track and
upset. In both instances, however,
he escsped %;;,hout loss OF chair or
hide" SAY =
THE Clark House. 70 BE CLOSED
MARCH 3Isr We learn that the
Clark House is to be closed up on
the last d this month, as Col. Hulrs
lease will expire at that time, and
as His Royal Highness, the astute
and sag,cious Frank Clark, is not
willing 10 renew the lease upon
terms which will enable any one to
run it and live. Well, it will be
somewhat humiliating to our people
to have this hotel closed, but we
think it is just as we'll that Frank
Clark should close it up first as last,
for, owing 70 the fact that he is APP
parently dong his "level best to
kill off Duluth, by the manner in
which he rurs the L. S. d NJ road,
we are inclined to think that it is
just as well that he should close
that hotel up, and be done with it,
for, under his management there is
no need her. Of hotel of that sort.
The occ asioual visitors to the place
may be put TO some inconvenience,
but they car readily find a nights
lodging, OF board for day or two,
at some If the private boarding
houses in the city. Col. Hull is
worthy and public spirited citizen,
but we think he is to be congratu
lated. upon getting out Of the hotel
business here Frank Clark ard
his "gang' are to continue to run
the l.. S. d NJ. road-and the town.
