The New Elevator.

The foundation of the new Northern elevator
which Is being built in West Superior by John
Mckennan of Chicago. for the Manitoba Rail
road company, is fast assuming shape and pro-
portion under the critical and experienced eye
of Eugene Pratt, Superintendent of construction.
The high standard OF work done by Mr.. McKen-
nan in elevator work is well known throughout
the country. and from present appearance the
new elevator Will be worthy companion to tina.
nntchless single elevator, the Great Northern, of
which Mr.. MeLennan was the builder The
work OF putting III the foundation has been nee
essarlv slow for several reasons The weather
which has been bad for building enterprises, has
played prominent part, while the difficulty
of procuring stsIne and the cramped facilities of
haHcling material and the working of men which
Is ocoGsoned bv the numerous railroad tracks
has rendered progress difficult From men who
are in position 10 know We learn that the total
length of the elevator viii be 81 feet. The two
rows Of bins through the center ofthe anncx and
one each side viii comprise the storage facil-
tiles, with the exception of cleaner and shipper
bins in the tower at the south side where all the
machinery viii be located This tower will be a
Duplicate of the great Northern, supplied with
upper bins, and fully equipped for receiving,
cleaning and shipping. There Will be two galcr
row Of bins, and the adjoining one of the two
rows in he center. Through the galleries viii
run the belts for the conveying Of the wheat
when shipping or cleaning, and wheat from the
bins on either side Of each galley is conveyed by
its belt. There win also be two conyeycrs above
the bins by which means they are filed with
what when receiving. The capacity of this
elevator viii 10000 bushels, and when com
pieted VIII swell the joint wheat capacity of
West Supcrors elevators to $4,000 which is 8,
0io00 short of the capacity of Duluths elevators.
These elevators are one Of the signs of the times
and speak more eioguently than words ofthe i'm
p0rtanee OF West Superior rs a distributing point.
The completion offhe Eastern railway Of Mime
sofa now puts Us in direct intercourse with
al Of that great territory traversed by the Mani
toba railway, and TIC rich products OF It's harvcsts
must pass through the elevators at the head of
the lake on It's way to Eastern and European
points. From present indications the wheat crop
throughout Minnesota and Dakota which is now
almost ready TO harvest VIII be one of the heav-
lest yields Tor years. Almost before the elevators
have discharged their present store the new crop
win have keguG its way TO the head OF the lake.

The heaviest rain storm for a
long time, visited us Wednesday af-
ternoon. At the West End the wind
was strong enough to blow oyer one
frame for ii building which had not
yet been enclosed, but this was the
extent of the damage III this direction.
The residence of MIR. Richard Bardon
was strnek by lightning which played
about the kitchen for a moment and
went out st half dozen places leav-
ing little holes in the wall as though
a reckless COW boy had been doing a
little shooting there, but TO one was
hurt, only one of the daughters was
quite badly shocked. The electric
light pole in front of Neil Smiths
store was struck, and at Mr.. Georges
place where is located the Telephone
Central Office, it kept the clerks
mighty busy lodging the electricity
and two of his electric light burners
were destroyed The rain fell in tor
rents and all business was suspended
for time The residence Of Mr.. Tim.
Samon was also struck by lightning
but not badly damaged.

Their ice cream festival advertised for
Wednesday evening was completely
swept away by the foods Of that after
noon, and the second attempt for
Thursday evening was but little bet
ter, for but few could braye the mud
to get to the hall, but those who did
get there were well repaid for their
trouble. The ladies tell us this is the
fifth time the weather has interfered
with their plans. Hope they will have
better success next time.

Chair Fndnympnt

The Chair Endowment plan for
seating the NJ. e. church, brought
about by Mr.. Wright is working to
a charm. The chairs-the latest
style oF opera chair-put in place will
cost $3.50, and any one wishing to
assist in seating the house can endow
a chair in the name of some child or
grown up friend, and when such per-
son wishes it, the name of the person
will be engraved on neat nickel
plate and attached to the chair. 1t
will require two hundred chairs TO
seat the main body of the church, and
of this number about one hundred
have been subscribed for. If possible
the chairs will be put in next month.

The Red Stocking ball club Of
this city went oyer to Duluth last Sat
urday and took the conceit out OF the
Duluth Stars, the crack club of that
city. The score stood s to 4 in favor
of the Superior club. Our Red Stock

be able to say for them that they have
manhood enough to positively refuse
to play on Sunday. Always remem-

be gentlemen and ball players too,

nation now -a-days.

Although the countenance of this gen
tleman speaks geniality and meekness-
he is one of the most positive and COM
bative of the newspaper fraternity. He
fights to finish, but bears no animOsity
to the FALLEN adversary. His personal
strength is seen in the fact that he cut
his county out of the almost unbrOken
line of anti-division communities in the
north, and was recently elected mayor
without opposition. He is an extreme
partisan, but otherwise good and hand
some.
Not least among the delegates is the
Fargo contribution,
N. K. HUBBARD,
who states his position so emphatically
that his own language is reproduced.
He says:
age forty-eight; born in Massachu-
settS; came to Dakota with Jay Cookies
agent in 1870, under firm name of Hub
bard & Raymond; furnished supplies
during construction of Northern Pa
cific railroad through Minnesota and
Dakota. / located at Fargo and bought
the first lots. Raymond located at Bis
marck, and was late territorial treas
urer. Always staunch Republican !:
always a strong divisionist; always
against the old gang-A. w. Edwards,
WAYS assisted in downing old Fatty Ed
wards, for he is anything, everything
for self. and nothing for the other fel-
low. He is half Republican, half Demo-
crat, and then neither but Mugwump,
good for neither side and true to no
one, not even himself. The old gang
was after my scalp at Jamestown, sup
piled with palace car, whisky, cigars,
ETC., and worked for all there

A LIVE LITTLE CITY.
Doubled in Wealth Last Year-A
Fine Horse Fair-Small Fruit
NewSbOyS' Cries.

Newsboys' Cries.
Special to the Globe.
WOONSOCKET, Dak., June 15.-Our
little city is booming ahead on the line
of permanent prosperity, as is shown
just been completed. In the past year
the town has almost doubled in wealth,
making gain of nearly 500, 1000 in the
value of real estate and personal prop
erty.
The Woonsocket horse fair drew
large crowd last week. Some fourteen
blooded stations, number of them i'm
ported, were on exhibition. The Perch
eron, Clyde and English shire horses
predominated, but there were also a
number of fine Hambletonians. San
born and Jerauld counties are rapidly
coming to the front in the line of breed
ing heavy draft horses, and the large
number Of people present showed the
interest taken in this line of buseness.
Small fruit is receivins due attention
here. Tone of our citizens, j. Field,
will have over 100 bushels of Strawber-
ries to market this year and is succeed
ing grandly in other lines.
The GLOBES Dakota edition reaches
Woonsocket Sunday morning, and the
newsbOy on the train was unable to
supply half the demand at the depot the
first day of this week, to say nothing of
the large number who receive the paper
regularly at the postoffice. This is the
dialogue heard every morning between
the news agent of the train and his
patrons at the Woonsocket depot:
''GLoBE and Pioneer Press!' "GLOBEw

all are served, the bell rings and the
train moves on.

ter, and his family left Wednesday
