Sunday morning we had the pleasure OF
hearing a very interesting sermon delivered
by Elder j. o. Bonner, at his church, Sec
ond Baptist. The words Of the text were

was much enjoyed. for the peculiar reason
it was a Sunday-school lesson of which they
had learned and they CLEAN many new
thoughts. will say, mothers and father,
YOU who do not attend the Sunday school,
are forgetting its benefits, and indeed losing
many golden gems. The sermon ended
with q review of mans life from childhood to
ripe age. In the afternoon we visited the Am.
4. Church, of which Elder Gazzawsy is pastor,
and we were impressed with many words of
encouragement to live more devoted. The
words of the text: "WhAt lack YETI" The
Elder is pleasant speaker, and indeed his
invitations are very impressive. Remember,

son of Jay Cooke came along that way and
offered to remove the swaddling- clout it still
wore, and dress it up, and crown it Queene
of the Northwest, an1 all this for a small
consideration, and the old fogy and avarici-
GUS nurses, said no, and the child went to
sleep once more and has remained in semi
unconscious state, until few weeks ago,
when the great railroad king, Henry Willard,
came along, and seeing the possibilities of
the child, breathed into il, though the North
Pacific railway tubes new life, blood, vigor,
and desire to liAe, and to-day you would
not recognize in the new Superior the old
Superior Of but two months ago, will be the
Chicago of the great Northwest. There is
not a better natural harbor on the lake; the
building grounds could not be better if
"made to or der" and the lumber and min
ing interests in the immediate vicinity and
great wheat belt Of the Northwest, must all
pour their callh into the lap of Superior,
and join hands in making her the Queen city
of the lakes. Her soil is also good grain and
grasses, the wheat yield this year bring %
bushels per acre and No. l., but We think
the country better adapted to stock raising
than grain growing. The Northern Pacific
railroad will run its cars into Superior about
the lst Of December, aud three other roads
are to be there within year, or two years
at most. There is but one thing that will
prevent five hundred houses being build in
Superior in 1892. The town proprietors, or
a majority of them, seem to have gone crazy
over the new birth, and seem to imagine that
they can have a city without people, and iJ
is next to impossible for stranger to buy
a lot, some positively refusing to sell, others
unwilling to fix price, and still others ask
ing so much for their lots that no man win
now buy. This is all wrong, and if continued
in, will do much to retard progress. But
such suicidal will not long prevail. That
same policy ten years ago made Duluth, and
to-day, if continued, will double Duluth's
pODuldJ!Oli, NuilS DhptFLOl Will Hide, dioi-
at a snaips pace. In short time, pr0ba bly,
next month, where-there is to be meeting
of the town proprictors and the officials Of
N.PR.R. Co., in New York, this difficulty
will oe removed to great extent, and the
property put upon the market upon some
uniform and equitable basis, which will let
new meu and capital in, and it is new men
and Lew energy and new ideas, that must
make the new city. If these things are pro
perry managed, Superior may report 10000
inhabitants when the government takes the
census in 1890.
We might say much more for Superior, Of
her natural harbor, the channel Of which
always furnished II feet of water and now
being made to IA feet OF the improvement
contemplated aud being provided for, &c,
but our space is occupied, and we must close
for this time at least, by returning thanks to
Mr.. Bardon, Mr. and Mrs. Shaw, Mr. Dean
and others whose names We do not recall,
for favors shown and information given,
daring our short stay in the future me-
tropols. When you get lot to sell brother
Bardon, check it off to US.

SUPERIOR -

We made flying trip to the headwaters
sea,-DuIuth, and other points of interest,
last week. Leaving here Monday morning
We were landed III Duluth at 600 am. Tues
day. TIE trip is one which, when once
taken, will never be forgotten nor regretted.
We have not time to go into extended de-
tails, out advise all who have not "been
there to go at the first opportunity. The
ride from nite Bear, above ST. Paul, to
Thompson, twenty-five miles from Duluth,
presents few attractions and is generally
best enjoyed by those who go through by
night trains, though even here one passes
through much good country, and to the man
who has always lived on the prairie, it is by
no means u1interesting. At Thompson, the
county seat of Carleton county, we first
catch glimpse, in the early morning, of
untamed nature, and the rollicking, leapiEg
and foaming waters of the wild st. Louis
river as it plunges headlong from precipice
to precipice, until lost to view hundreds Of
feet below, until you think it is lost forever,
when sudden bend in the road brings it
to its sea-Lake Superior. Here you viii
find, to put it mildly, one of the finest water
powers in the Union, aad the ride along the
towering hill side is one of grandeur which
our feeble pen fails to portray, but when ae
get to be an artist we will try putting it
upon canvas.
Duluth, pretty little city of some $500
inhabitants, is set upon hill, and cannot be
hid, and ought not to be. Duluth is said BY
some to be dead town" and perhaps j. is,
but still she keeps up a terrible racket for a
''dead corpse" But while Duluth is not
dead town by any means, neither is she quite

/ But, deny it as she may, Dnluth has a

IT Is with regret we announce
that Mr.. |. S. P. Weeks, who has
for the past nine months so well
filled the position Of chief engineer
OF the Wisconsin division Of the
Northern Pacific, has been assigned
to the charge Of an important piece
OF work for that company on the
western end of their line, and that
he and his family leave for the
Pacific coast on Monday. Mr..
W eeks is an engineer of rare pract-
ical ability, as well as a great
''pusher" of work, and it is on ac-
count of these qualities, most likely,
that Gen. Anderson, his chief, has
assigned him to larger and more
difficult field. The work here bein g
about all planned aud we'll under
way, his successor, who we under
stand " i'll be Mr.. Z. w. D. Hol-
brook, a competent man, will have
no great difficulty in taking it up
and carrying it out to completion.
Mr.. and Mrs Weeks were quite an
addition to social circles here, from
which they will be much missed.
They made many friends during
their residence here whose best
wishes will always accompany
them.

REVIEW OF THE DAY.


EXECUTIVE MANSION, 11:3O p. m.-The
history of the Presidents case to-day pre-
sents no new features. He has rested
quietly throughout the day, taking a
small quantity of solid food again for the
first time in a week, and sleeping at in
tervals naturally and peacefully as usual.
The febrile symptoms showed late in the
afternoon, but began to subside soon after
the evening examination. The discharge
of pus at dressing of the wound to-day
was of healthy character. 1t is impossible
to say whether the discharge is now from
the wound where the ball is or from sup
purating the face along the balls track
near the wounds mouth, but probably
the latter, as the evidence goes to show.
All the surgeons are now of opinion that
the ball is in front of the abdomen, about
five inches below and to the right of the
naval and just over the groin. 1t is be-
lieved the black and blue spot which was
visible on the right side OF the abdomen
several days after the President received
the injury marked the bullets
location, and this is confirmed
by such results as have been
obtained with the induction balance.
The ball has given no trouble as yet and
may become encysted and cease altogeth-
er to be source of anxiety. In any
event the surgeons express perfect confl-
dence that his recovery will be complete
and will not be followed by any disabil-
ity or weakness. The surgeons reports
slight gain of strength. DR.. Agnew ar
rived this afternoon, and said he appeared
much better than when he last saw him.
At this hour his pulse is below 100, his
temperature about normal, and he is
