She accepted the proposition and was mar

WORK FOR CONVICTS.
The States Wards to Have En-
ployment atIOnce.

The board of prison inspectors yester-
day closed a contract at Saltwater with
the Minnesota Thresher Manufacturing
company for the rental of the foundry,
blacksmith and machine shops at $500
per month. This much of the idle prop
erty will again assume its former life.
The board has also received authority
to use the $4,000 appropriation in pur-
chasing machinery, ETC., with which to
run the remaining shops, and thus give
employment again to the convicts. The
thresher company, by the terms of their
lease. are TO furnish the state with the
necessary power to operate its machin-
cry without additional cost.
Larry MattOX paid S25 and costs for
the privilege of holding a s. bill too
long. He secured it on the preteXt of
making change, and was also secured
by the court, charged with getting
money under false pretenses.
James McAlpin was brought to the
city hospital this morning for treatment
of fractured leg. He was employed
in the construction of camp house on
Moose river when log rolled across
his right leg, crushing it between the
foot and knee.
Some needed improvements have been
made in the dressing rooms and other
parts of the Grand opera house.

when over a cup of tea, one of their

'Dottie' engaged to a duke?" at last
gasped a girl who had just plighted her
troth to a young bank clerk. ''DO you

John Serega's daughter is going to

beautiful American girl, the daughter
of Louis Serega, and cousin to the
young lady whom he is now about to
marry. Pelham Clinton naturally in
tTOduced his kinSman TO his wife'S peO-
pie, and q series of small entertain
ments were arranged by the Seregas for
his grace of Newcastle. The duke was
introduced to the various clubs, and
made many friends by his gentle and

the bodily infrmities which he bore so
braYely. He returned to England in
March, and in May Mrs. John Serega

where they have been ever since, and
where the friendship of the young peO-
