WHITE BEARS WIND UP.
Summer Cottagers Eie Themselves
Cityward.
HE HAD A STRING TO IT.
Closing Round of Gayeties at Popular
Resort Changes in Railroad
Schedules.

The last week OF the summer season
of 1883 has been pleasant one, and 1t
seemed as though everybody was trying
to crowd as much enjoyment as possible
into the few remaining days. But the
big Saratoga trunks on the clty-b0und
trains were sure indication that their
owners are done with the gayetieS and
frivollties of White Bear, at least for
thel present. Many, however. not car
ing to be burdened with a trunk, re-
moved their goods and chattelS to the
lake on the installment plan, TAX
ing a bundle with them Oil each
trip to the lake. OF course they
have to get them back to town in
the same manner. This mode
of transporting baggage has resulted in
a good many packages being lost. A
passenger on Wednesday mornings
train, who has been unfortunate in the
loss of two valuable articles left on the
train, was seen with good sized
bundle which he placed in the rack
over his seat, taking care first, how
ever, to carefully tie a strong cord
around the package. The other end he
secured firmly around his neck, with
the remark that he'd "be hanged If he'd
forget that bundle" Yet in nine cases
out of ten, articles left on the cars may
be recovered by their owners by apply
ing to the general offices of the Duluth
road on Fourth street, or to the brake
man in charge of the train.
There will be comparatively few cot
tagerS at the lake this month, and the
majority of them stay from necessity
and not from choice, having rented
their cottage until the Isl OF October, or
have not been able to find a suitable
home in the city. There is not much
inducement to stay at lake resort
when the majority of the summerers
have left it. Take an evening stroll
along the lake shore. The cottages,
with their curtained windows and
barred doors, are OppreSsively silent;
the cool evening breeze blows through
the broad piazZaS, which, but few
weeks since, echoed with merry shouts
and laughter. The muSquitO buZzes dis
consolately, as il aware of the near APP
prOach of frost, and the signs of early
fall tend to hasten the loiterer to an
early departure.
The concert given at Mrs. Board
mans cottage, Dellwood, Aug. 10, for
the benefit of the Presbyterian church
at White Bear, was repeated tuesday
evening at the residence of Mrs. Brew
ster, and the results were most crafty
ing to those having the affair in charge,
nearly $50 being realized from the sale
of tickets, which was turned over to
the church. A programme of nine num-
bers was enthusiastically received by
the large audience present, and numer-
Gus encores were demanded. The in
terror of the house was profusely decor
ated with flowers, and the young
ladies of the church who had this
matter in charge, are to be cOngrat-
ulated for their efforts. The programme
was as follows: Piano duet, G.. G.
Titcomb and Miss Hess; solo, Mrs.
Curtiss: duet, Mr.. and Mrs. DeWOlf;
