Every article above given was provided, the
meats, game, vegetables and pastry cooked to
kings taste, and the liquids being of the
best brands. The food was served by three
colored walters, dressed in spotless white
jacket, apron, ETC., whose movements were
carefully supervised by Messrs. Shattuck and
Kent.
The disposition Of this sumptuous repast oc-
cupied the run to Saltwater. Arriving at this
| wide awake and business city, the excur
sionists were met by Hon. D. M. Sabin, Hon.
E. w. Durant, Hon. Isaac Staples, Hon. K.
| Hersey, Dud. Hersey, Esq, Mr.. Marsh, and
| others. With only short stop the train ran
down to the main entrance to the prison
grounds, where something like an hour was
spent in trip through the several
shops where the different manufactures
turned out by Seymour, Sabin & Co., the
prison contractors, including the famous
minnesota Chief" thresher, stationary en-
gines, and the wood and iron work for rail-
| road cars for the Northwestern Car company,
ETC., are evolved from the raw material. This
latter industry is only in its infancy in Still
water, the company now being restricted for
want of room. A new building for its use 800
feet in length by so wide, three stories and
basement-giving over two acres of floor
ing-just outside the prison walls is receiving
its finishing touches, and work upon another,
1920 feet in length by so feet wide, is about
to commence, which will enable them to very
largely extend their operations in car building.
From the shops a brief visit was made
to the prison proper, under the direction
of Capt. Reed, warden. The perfect system
and the air of cleanliness here eeen won many
favorable comments from the visitors. As with
other visitors to the prison the chief point OF
attraction was the cells of the famous Young
ers, Cole, Bob and Jim. AS only Jim was al
work, Cole and Bob being on the sick list, the
curiosity of the visitors was gratifed by both
seeing any conversing with the noted life pris
Oner3.
Once more on the train and started for
home, a stop was made opposite the rear oi
the new Opera house, and the party invited
inside by Hon. E. W. Durant, its enterprising
proprietor and manager. Entering by the
rear, the party were ushered upon the stage
where were two long tables loaded with glass
es and numerous bottles, and soon the
sharp swapping of corks went reverbe
rating through the building, and health, long
life and prospe ;ity to Mr.. Durant and the
good people of Saltwater generally was drank
in foaming bumpers of dry Mum. Then the
party proceeded to thorough inspection OF
the house, seats, scenery, drop curtain, dress
ing rooms, ETC., the result being general YER
dict that it is gem of an Opera house, and 9
wish by the st. Paul representatives, that
their city possessed SO good one.
