to be the handSOmeSt and
best located newspaper offices in
Washington. They occupy portion of the
handsome new building just erected at the
northeast corner of Pennsylvania avenue

given above. 1t is a hondsomely-finiSh
building, of pressed brick, four stories high,
fronting on Pennsylvania avenue, the prin-
cipal business thoroughfare of the city, and
Fourteenth street, on which is located News

been leased for the GLOBE occupy both

cannot be equaled by any other building in

After leaving the Chateaugay and head
ing for the island, another rainstorm came
up, and with it a cold wind that beat the
waves into white-caps. A party of the
fishermen before noticed came fleeing before
the blast, and running their skiff full tilt
against the bank, clambered up
into the shelter of summer
house, behind which the party
of the first part had taken refuge. The rain
came down in big bursts and the party from
the boats, having only one overcoat between
three, were thoroughly drenched. They
were blue and shivering, and had left every
thing behind except basket and bottle.
One Of them, addressed Familiarity as
Steamer" was loud in his denunciations.
'Blarst my skin if you ever get me down
here again before Fourth of July. In Cali
fOrnia, where I came from, the roses are
a-bloomin', and here it is cold as the north
pole" was the burden of his lament.
They said they had caught no fish so far,
but you bet there were lots of 'em''-par-
ticularly wall-eyed pike. Some OF them
weighed thirty pounds.

1t is said that certain Minneapolis capital
lists propose building a floating rink to be
used on the lake. The staunch little
steamer Dispatch, owned by Mr.. Ed. Com
ings, was inspected during the week, pro-
nounced A No. l, and will make her first
trip around the lake to-day. The barge,
Clara f. Miller, built for dancing purposes,
will accommodate 500 persons and as during
last season will be towed by the steamer.
The Dispatch has history and was brought
overland from the Mississippi river Oh three
flat cars, feat worth chronicling.
AS the weather has at last settled, it is
safe to anticipate season OF enjoyment at
White Bear hitherto unparalleled in the
records. One thing is sure, there is every
thing there conducive to perfect summer

1t is but justice to the wall-eyed pike to
add, in conclusion that he will be present
in great numbers at this popular resort.

terviewed, with one of the pscatorial pro-
fessors. That he is III a hilarious frame of
mind. and expects to have rare sport with
his friends from st. Paul and all over the
country during the season, may be readily
inferred fr2m his portrait.

From the tenor of his bluff remarks it is
evident that he is an ancient mariner. and
that the bits of twine have something to do
with the wall-eyed. The fishermen go
forth and the visitor sits down TO worry the
ancient. The conversation begins about
boats and drifts into nomenclature. Little
by little the origin Of the name White Bear
is adduced. 1t is something about an Indian
chief. asionely sQuaw and white bear
who didn't understand his business. The
inference is drawn that possibly that bear
was wall-eyed.- Going back to boats, the
oracle points out the yacht Juanita as the
fastest sailor on the lake, and the list OF her

boats is noticed one fitted with an apparatus
for spearing fish. A tank near by is alive
with small fish.
