Our regular London correspondent tele-
graphs two interesting rumors. One is to the
effect that General Skobeleff, the mcorked
Russian daredevil, has either been negotiating
personally with the Parnellites, or has opened
communications with them from the Continent,
with a view to securing an Irish diversion
whenever the next and decisive advance Is
planned from Central Asia. The rumor has
been industriously circulated by the English
Russophobists, and is telegraphed as an Illus
tratiOn of the recklessness with which they
play upon human credulity. The other rumor
recounts the direful results of an American
diplomatst's thoughtleSSness in teaching Eng
lish society" how to play draw poker. 1t
seems that there has been an extraordinary
development of gambling in fashionable life,
and that the queens of society are regular
Dokcl- plaYcIs.

unwilling children to school when there are
not schoolhouses enough for those who want

well to have it enforced. But before We
build reformatories for the bad children, as the
Superintendent recommends, let us have pro-
per accommodations for the good ones.

bering Facilities and Agricul-
tural Resources.

Since our connection with the TINES we
haye daily received letters of inquiry re-
garding Superior and her resources and
prospects. We desire to answer all inquir-
ers, but to do so separately by letter would
require all OF our time or demand the en-
ployment OF special correspondent, and
then it would be incompletely done. To
meet the desires of all, therefore, we have
compiled, from such statistics as are avail
able, a brief sketch or history of the city
and its surroundings. The reader is no
doubt aware that the idea of building CITY
here is not new one, but that from various
causes its development has been retarded.
The obstacles which have heretofore oper-
ated against the town have finally been re-
moved, however, and its day of prosperity
is now at hand. Heretofore we have never
had an inland outlet; now we have the
Northern Pacific railroad stretching away
to the plains of the west, and in few
months will have the Chicago, St. Paul,
Minneapolis & Omaha road giving us direct
communication with Chicago to the east
and all the great and fertile region lying to
the South and Southwest in an unbroken
chain through Southern Dakota, Nebraska
&c. AS an evidence Of present prosperity
it is only necessary to say that within the
past six months 100000 have been ex-
pended here in new buildings and local i'm
provements not including the railroad build
ing. The n. p. Company is building a
large and very substantial dock and the
city is repairing and charging two Others
The large hotel known as the Superior
House, containing about one hundred
rooms, has been reftted and furnished and
opened to the public; a new $4,000 hotel
to be built by the n. p. Company will be
erected during the season and also at least
one million bushel elevator, coal docks, &C.
The only National bank at the head of the
lake is here, and new business and dwelling
houses are springing up daily as if by
magic. Superior is the county seat Of
Doug las County, and we have an excellent
Court House, three good school houses and
three schools in operation, three good
church buildings and another to be built
this season, all of which is given as the best
of evidence that Superior is soon to occn
Ply that position in the great commercial
circles nature has intended she should
occupy.
Much of the matter given below has of
course been given to the public before in
one form or another, but being interesting
to those who would know all about u.s."
and thoroughly reliable, we compile it in
its present form to the better and more ex-
phcitly answer the many questions pro
pounded to US.
