Resort.
;. The week has been an exceptionally
| lively one. The hotels are ali doing a
| good business, and rooms made vacant
| by departing guests are rapidly filled by
southern sojourners in quest of few
weeks quiet repose by our Northern
lakes. On the Mahtomedi side. the
Chautauqua assembly is attracting
crowds daily. The White Bear people
are taking great interest in these lect-
ures, and every evening the various
lake craft, flied with passengers from
the hotels and cottages, make Mahto-
medl their objective point. Friday
evening the scene in front of the hotel
was wild and fantastic. Crowds of peo-
| pie, IN attendance at the assembly.
covered the steps and the sloping ground
down to the lake, while at their feet,
near the waters edge, huge bonfire
shot its lurid flames athwart the murky

graduating class of 'SS were concluding

danced wildly around the camp fire
Drandlshlng tire-brands in their hands,
and all the while yelling like mad. 1t
was hard to tell whsther they were imi-
tatlng the Indian war dance or the glee-
full hop of the wlid-eyed cannibal pre-
paratory to feaSting on the juicy mis-
slonary. AT any rate it was a novel
sight, II nothing more, and well repaid
the many sailing parties from the other
side of the lake, who had come over to
witness the ceremonies. After the
campfire dance had been concluded the
guests repaired to the verandahs of the
hotel to witness the display of fireworks
7 which concluded the evenings feat

But the great joke of the week-in
fact, OF the seaSon-waS perpetrated on
the Williams house guests Thursday
evening. The principals of the affair
seem very much creStfallen over the
way things turned out and labored
hard to keep the matter quiet, but there
were too many
LADIES IN THE SECRET.
It seems That certain young lady
| resident of Bald Eagle was under the
impression that dance was to take
place that evening at the hotel, while
In fact the party was to be given at on e
OF the cottages and was private affair.
She accordingly invited number of
friends resident at the Williams house
TO come over and participate in the
get party large enough to fill the
Chateaugay bus, which was secured
for the trip, and in fact there
weren't enough seats for everybody land
rather than miss the party some of the
gentlemen walked over. But upon ar
irving at the place of the proposed fes-
tivities they found the hotel in dark
ness, and they were chagrined to learn
that it was all mistake; there would
be no hop at the hotel that night. The
dining room girl having suSpiciously
locked the door to the dining room, they
took possession of the ,parlor, where a
song. They then drove back on the
dusty road by moonlight, a tired and
dlsguSted party of hoppers. They now
assert that they will attend no more par
ties without duly authenticated affida-
Wit that the party will take place at the
time and place aforesaid.

Mrs. Stewart is the prima donna of
the Stewart Concert company (colored),
which so delighted the MahtOmedi peO.
pie last week. While passing a few
hours on the White Bear side of the
lake she was asked by one of party of
ladies' if she resided at Mahtomedi. On
replying In the affirmative, they then
wanted to know if she knew anything
about the Stewart Concert company,
and if it was worth quarter to
HEAR THE DARkIES SING.
She replied that, being member of the
company herself, she was probably in
capable of passing upon its merits, and
! politely requeSteds the ladies to come
| over and hear for themselves.
The. Saturday evening hop occurred
at Leip's last night, and was. as usual,
largely attended.
The Mahtomedi assembly will con-
clude Thursday, which will be Grand
Army day.
