The Superior times. [volume] (Superior, Wis.) 1870-1912, 1883-01-13
Mr.. G.. 2. Ryam. the Duluth ma

who tried to put head" on Wood
bridge, the editor of the News, of thai
city, has been arrested and put under
$500 bonds to keep the peace. Mr.
Woodbridge was the complaining wit
ness. Those Duluth editors are :
''purty" lot of buffers, for a fact
Turn about is fair play, yet we dc
not care to laugh at the grimace:
made by our Duluth friends now OF
account Of the mail arrangements
Their mail or the bulk of it, will now
come here via the Omaha, in the even
ing and be taken to Duluth by stage
the next morning. 1t is rumored that
Mitchell is so mad that he is going to
paint his hair green instead of red
hereafter.
At the regular annual meeting o.
the stockholders of the First National
Bank of Superior, held in the parlors
of the bank building last Tuesday, the
following officers were elected for the
ensuing year: D. NJ. Sabin, Presi
dent; James Bardon, Vice-president
t. X. Alexander, Cashier. The board
of directors for the ensuing year will
consist of Messrs. james Bardon, |
w. Gates, D. NJ. Sabin, Hiram Haye.
and Vincent Roy.
Mr. T. K. Alexander, cashier il
our First National Bank, starts today
| friday for short visit at his home
in Missouri. During his absence Mr.
S. E. Tubbs will smile on you through
| the cashiers window as he rakes il
your ducats. Judging from the sor
rowful looks of some of our young la
dies, we should not be surprised if I
X was up to something more thar
just visiting.
aMr. George Mason, one of ou
draymen, has gone out into the woods
/ to work with one Of his teams. Hi;
| first days experience was not calculat-
ed to make him love life in the bush
One of his horses received a bad kick
he lost the charm off his watch chain
AMI lost or had stolen from him five
dollars in money. He is still in the
woods, however, and proposes to fight
it out on that line if it takes all
winter.
-Duluth is principally composed OF
wind in testimony whereof witness the
following from the Bee of Wednesday
Jake Liedel's Superior stage was
was standing in front of the St. Louis
hotel this morning, when it was caught
up by the wind and thrown over be-
tween the two horses. There were
three passengers in the bus, but none
Of them were injured The horses ran
away and were not caught till they
reached the Windsor. The bus is now
in the gully back Of the St. Louis.
The Superior reporter for the
Duluth Bee few days ago rather in
timated that property IN Uppcrtown
was off" prices down and no takers,
while prices in the middle and eastern
parts were brisk and transfers lively.
Now as we don't want to see anv
blood shed, we advise the said reporter
to make it convenient to visit Europe
at once, and to get away, too, before
Stafford gets hold of him, for if he
don't he will not 90 this season. Up
pertown property is booming and the
company want another clerk to make
out deeds.
The firm of Retallack & Cox,
dry goods dealers of our city, finding
themselves in at least temporary finan-
cial embarrassment, deemed il best to
make an assignment for the benefit OF
their creditors, and did so last Mon
day, Mr. Denis Dean being the ass
ignee. The books are being over
hauled and an invoice Of the goods
taken, and until this work is complet-
ed it will be impossible to tell just
how matters stand. One of their
heaviest creditors have offered them
extension of time, and it is thought
others will do the same, in which case
they will resume business next week
and no doubt will soon be able to pay
their Indebtedness dollar for dollar.
Thus far the assets show up good.
