There are to be boats upon the lake

Among the attractions already ar
ranged for during the coming season,
are SUNDAY School of Theology"
the Sunday School Assembly," and
the annual convention of the "Wo-

&c.
The announcement that summer
school of theology will be held at
Mountain Lake Park in July is no
doubt surprise to our readers, but
1t is only one of a series of surprises
in store for them. Mountain air is as
stimulative of enterprise as it is of
health. and as so much interest has of
late been manifested in this special
branch at Chautauqua and other re-
sorts, it was resolved to introduce
this most valuable means of instruc-
ton into the programme at the Park
putting 1t within the means and reach
of all, laity as well as clergy, at most
moderate terms.
The Mountain Lake Park Hotel
will give reduced rates to parties
attending the Summer School of
Theology, to be held from July 9th
to the goth, inclusive, and to be con-

Lynn. Mass, who has charge also of
the same branch at Chautauqua, a

and elsewhere last summer, know
that rare treat is in store for them

of this valuable opportunity.

School Assembly this year has been
fixed for August TIT. This is one

ing days and one Sabbath, beginning
with Tuesday of one week and clos
ing with Friday of the next.
1t has been decided to have a course
of twenty first class lectures at the
coming Assembly, two each day. the
morning lectures to be ''strong meat"
entirely, and those of the evening to
combine instruction and entertain
ment, number of the latter to be
illustrated by means of the magniti-
cent lime light lantern which added
so much to the delight of last sum-
mer's audiences.
DIR. Lyman Abbott, editor of the
Christian Union. of New York, is en-
gagged for three lectures at the coming
Assembly. and will participate in the
normal work also.
Last season it was difficult to &C.
commodate visitors to the Sunday
School Assembly and other gather
ings, but ample facilities for the
boarding and lodging of large num-
bers will be provided this year.
Nor will it be necessary for our
young folks to go SC far as the sea
shore for 'fun' next season for they
can find it nearer home, in a cooler,
healthier, more convenient locality,
among our own mountains.
DIR. Logan is desired to take charge
of the music for the season. and if he
consents and secures the cooperation
of his own daughters it will be all
that can be desired, as all can testify
who are acquainted with their rare
accomplishments.

Barker News.

From Al. Lester and NJ. Gallagher,
who arrived from Barker yesterday, we
obtained the following items Of interest
in reference to the coming camp of Mon
tana:
The day they left camp the Workmen
in the Vanderbilt tunnel struck the lead,
showing % inches of solid galena, and
the lead has not yet been crossed. The
tunnel is 20 feet in, and this strike fully
demonstrates the richness of the Wander
bilt, which is yet to be one of the big
mines of the camp.
A big strike was made the other day
on the new celebrated Silver Belle. The
workmen in the employ of the Clenden-
in Mining and Smelling company struck
a body of four or five feet of ~carbonates,
supposed to be very rich ore. Thismine,
it seems, is fully worth the fight being
made over it.
The Kalloch, owned by Oscar Olinger
and Yank Smith, has been bonded by
John Rowe and other parties, and the
property will be at once developed.
The Wright & Edwards at this time
shows a finer body Of ore in the breast
Of the level than ever before, and in ev-
cry part is looking fine.
AL. Lester is adding another story to
his house at Hughesyille, and expects to
have the finest place in the camp. He
will fit up a handsome saloon, and has
ordered two billiard tables from the east.
Al. has lots of faith in the camp, and is
going to stay with it.
Pat Moynihan is at work constantly
hauling ore from the May & Edna to the
new smelter.
The fire brick for the new smelter AT.
rived at the camp Friday, and will be al
once put in place. It is expected that
the little daisy will work like a charm
when it starts up again.
The boys expect Barker to be a pretty
lively camp this winter, and their expec
tations will be realized.

THE HOUSE.

Only one session, and that an unim-
portant one, was held, owing to the absence
of so many members.
Mr.. Jas. Smith, Jr., introduced two bills
affecting building societies. One legalizes
and establishes the principle of taxation
of the stock of these societies as agreed
upon by County Assessor Beaumont and
the societies. The other extends to build
ing stock the feature now applicable to
savings bank stock In the hands of minors.
BY the bill introduced by Mr.. Morris
johnson, of Kandyohi county, the rate of
interest is reduced from Is to II per cent,
and the limit of exemption extended from
two to three years.
The bill of Capt. Parker, of Wadena,
proposes to take tier of five townships
from the west side of the unorganized
county of Cass and attach the same to
Wadena. AS will be seen by reference to
the map, Wadena is one of the
smallest counties in the state, while Cass
is spread over. large extent of territor y,
and it would appear that the change pro-
posed Is in every way commendable.

The Once week club closed their series
of parties at Sherman hall last Wednesday
evening with grand masquerade ball, one
of the most elegant and charming affairs
of the season, and the array of costumes of
all descriptions for beauty and display
have never been surpassed in this city.
Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. Becht, as prince and
princess; y. Matheis, as the duke; Miss j.
Sherbrook, Spanish costume; Miss Bettin-
ger, as Bohemian girl; Mrs. H. Meyer,
fancy costume, were superb. The group
of song and dance artists consisting of
Messrs. Geo. Benz, Jr., R. Seng, NJ. Kugler,
Haupt, DevinG, Fink, Douse and Oertel
were equal to Haverley's best. Mr.. Phi.
Heck as the lawyer Gan old setter and well
KNOWN was in every respect a
counterpart of the original.
Mr.. Martin, as the clown, was in every re-
spect the equal of Dan Rice. MIR. and
Mrs. R. Seeger, as an aged couple of nine
ty years, carried cut their part to perfec-
ton. We cannot close without giving due
credit to the management, consisting of
MeSsrs. Geo. Becht, Karl Simmon, julius
Schmidt and Oscar Matheis, for the gen
tlemanly and courteous manner in which
they have managed this and the other par
ties of the season, and we trust success
will crown all future efforts of the Once q

RAILROAD NOTES.

Mr.. Hiland and Mr.. Winter have return
ed from short trip to Chicago.
The St. Paul & Manitoba road and the
Northern Pacific are in good condition.
J. G. Lombard, general travelling agent
of the Pennsylvania railroad, is in town.
The Albert Lea route was abandoned,
and passengers were sent over the Chica-
go, st. Paul & Omaha road.
The Hastings & Dakota road runs all
right. The train that left St. Paul at 8 a.
NJ, was getting along as we'll as could be
expected.
Mr.. George K. Barnes, general passen-
ger and ticket agent of the Northern Pa
cifc, has returned from trip to Chicago
and the East.
1t was determined not to send out the
Owatonna train on the Chicago, Milwaukee
& st. Paul road unless they were sure they
would be able to take it through. About
4 o'clock in the afternoon the train was
started and was going all right.
The river division of the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & St. Panl
road was not interfered with
to any considerable degree, and trains
have been running all along the same as
usual except that some of the trains were
behind time.
Although the recent storm was the Sc
vsrest of the season while it lasted the re-
suits that followed have not been so serious
nor so lasting as were the results of some
of the previous storms. 1t is too late III
the season and the sun climbs too high in
the heavens now, for the snow blockade to
last great while. The consequence, there
fore, is that the roads were all running
yesterday in spite of the storm.

Serenade to Mr. Ggote.

One of the pleasantest and most unpre-
tentious little affairs that ever happened in
St. Paul was the serenade of Mr.. Herman
Grote, of the Tivoli, on Thursday evening
last. That day was the thirty eighth ami
Eersary of his birthday, and would have
passed without special notice but for the
fact that members of the Great Western
band accidentally heard of
it. They accordingly picked
up their instruments and about
10 o'clock in the evening, went to the
Tivoli, and opened the valves with a fine
selection which at once brought Mr.. Grote
to the front of the establishment. Of
course they were invited in where they
spent an hour or SO in pleasant sociabili-
ties interspersed with music. The pleas
ant little affair was brought to an agree
able close by the band giving Mr.. Grote's
favorite selection, "The Songs of Ger
many"
