Mrs. DR.. Rhodes and her daughter, Mrs.
Dr. Powell and Mrs. A. 7, Smith, have
gone picnicing at White Bear lake.
Conner and Brown were released yester-
day from the Saltwater base ball club, and it
looks as if some others will be also re-
leased.

Capron is ahead of Forepaugh, as may be
seen by the white elephant at the front of his
establishment. 1t is capital one, and is
much admired.
?. L. Philippi, of the directory firm of
Bum 81 Philippi, left for Lacrosse yesterday
afternoon, having completed his work of de-
livery. He had only one copy remaining,
which showed close calculations of the wants
of the business people of the city.
At the police court yesterday morning there
were only two cases. O2e was drunk,
John Kenery taking too much tanglefoot,
and Frank Clark, who could not get over the
Fourth of July, and would persist in shooting
off firecrackers, to the imminent hanger of
those who were in carriages, as well as pedes-
trians. Each paid into the exchequer 80
which made the fun rather costly.
j. H. Duggan, veterinary surgeon of the
pany, had hard time of it on Tuesday
night. On that day he went into the coun
try on business, lost his way and had to lie
in the woods over night. He got home yes
terday, but his friends hardly knew him he
was so much changed He must have passed
a rather restless night. We trust he will
come around all 0. X.
There will be a moonlight excursion to-
night on the Jennie Hayes. She leaves her
dock here at s Clock calling at South Still
water and Hudson on her trip down the lake.
She will return about midnight. The band
will accompany her, and she will have a
couple of large barges. Tickets for the round
trip fifty cents, children twenty-five cents.
Ice cream, strawberries, lemonade and soda
water may be had in abundance, for which
there will be an extra charge. Let every one
go and have a pleasant trip
Remember that Forapaugh's great circus
will be here on Friday, and when viewing
the procession be sure and have your doors
locked, as sneak thieves follow in the wake
of all large circuses. AS far as Forepaugh's
own men are concerned they are all right,
but there are a lot of side performances
which have particularly hard customers
along with them, and for such look out. The
police will do their best to protect your inter-
ests, but they will have plenty to do on the
streets.
There has been considerable change made
in the outside of the new hotel being put up
by Nelson Il Co., of st. Paul, on Main street,
the brick veneering not being put up this sea-
son, owing to uncertainty of the foundation.
The council were asked to make larger
water way for the overplus water from Me-
Kusick lake, which runs under the hotel, but
so far have done nothing. Mr.. Rosenfeldt
had to have the hotel, for the present clap
boarded, and the outside work is about fin
ished, except the front. The work is well
done, and is painted as soon as put on, thus
preventing any checking by the weather.
The inside work is being pushed rapidly, and
at an carly date it will be ready for occu-
pancy.
little after IL o'clock on Tuesday even
in an alarm of fire was sent in for blaze
on Hickory street, between Owen and Will
liam re is. The fire had made considerable
prog ess b fore the alarm was sent, as parties
on the South hill observed the fire, whilst on
Third street, and had time to walk from
Third to Holcomb's, four blocks, before the
alarm was sent in. The fire department re-
sponded promptly, but found when they ar
rived at the fire that / 200 feet of hose was
not sufficient to reach from McKusick lake
TO the fire. so 500 feet more had to be pro-
cured from the High school building. BY
this time the building was about consumed,
The burnt building belonged to Nels Nelson,
and was valued at $500, on which was an in
surance of $500, with 1925 on the contents
In the American Central. Most of the fur
niture in the front part was saved, but in the
kitchen part all was destroyed 1t is not
known how the fire occurred, unless it was
from defective lue,
No article of use in food is more appreci-
ated than good milk, and Saltwater has
very good article delivered to them by the
several milkmen, but we know that an i'm
proyement could still be made. In the first
place, the crooked taps used in the cans
should be done away with and straight ones
put in their places, as it is next to impossi-
BILE to keep the crooked ones clean. Should
the least particle of tainted milk come in.
contact with the best milk it will cause it to
sour couple of hours at least sooner than if
the faucet was Thoroughly clean. Again, cans
should be soldered on the inside, thus pre-
venting the least particle of milk being left
in the can when scalded. Also, the milk
should be perfectly cool before being put in
the cans to be delivered. a very small por-
ton of water added TO milk maysbe very
good to cause the cream to rise, but If put in
milk for sale the milkman will soon lose
customer. Some of our nilkmen, or the
customers who buy from them, have been
using too much aqua pura, and the good
name of each have been endangered thereby.
All milk dishes should be soldered on the in
side as tests have proved that pan soldered
on the inside, with milk, will remain sweet
six hours longer than one soldered on the
outside. This is something worth remember
ing, and it is hoped that some of our milk
men will test the straight faucet, as well as
cans soldered on the inside, and find out
the difference.
