has refused immense sums and values
very highly. Thinking that little trip
would do him good after long attention
to business Mr.. McCreary determined,
after taking In the convention, to make
visit to st. Paul. Needless to say he
is delighted with the place, and,
barring Detroit, considers it the finest
place in the world.
Lord Chesterfield and Newton Ogle
registered at the Ryan yesterday from
England. The former is young man
about thirty-three years old, VINO sue
ceeded to the title on the death of his
father, two years ago. The latter is a
member of one of the oldest families in
the north of England, the Ogles, of
Northumberland. They have been on
a trip through the West, visiting New
Mexico, California. and the whole Pa
cific coast from San Diego to Van
cOuver. On arriving in st. Paul yes
terday morning they were met by A.
IL. Paget, an old friend of Lord Chester
field. who piloted them round town,
took them to Minneapolis, where they
took in the base ball game. They both
expressed themselves as delighted with
the two cities, and considered the ball
game a fine exhibition, having only
seen one before and that in California.
They left for Chicago in the evening,
going to Niagara and other points of
interest and returning to England
about June 1. Mr.. Ogle is heavily in
tereSted in railroads and mining in the
Northwest, and took the opportunity to
cast his eye over affairs.
-
John O'Connor, of Boston, is in the
city; he is the man who never regis
tiers and who strives to travel incOg.
Still he is right royal good fellow,
knows every newspaper man from At
lantic to Pacific, and can tell some very
clever stories.
Representative McCusick, of Pine
City, is in st. Paul. THIS is the first
time he has been here since the adj
journment of the legislature, but some
how the Merchants lobby looks famil-
lar with Mr.. McCuSick's cleaning eye
and long muStache in the midst. The
chair in which he used always to sit,
feels like a wife whose husband has re-
turned after long absence. Talking
about the state of affairs at Pine City
where he lives, he said: ''Things
looked pretty blue for the lumbermen
until day or two ago. The Snake
river and other tributaries of the st.
CrOix were very low, but the rain of the
last few days has done heap Of good.
We shall have some more, and that will
still improve affairs"
j. G. Williams, of the law firm of En-
sign, Cash & Williams, at Duluth, is in
the city looking after some legal bust
ness in the courts. Mr.. Williams is re-
garded by his fellow attorneys as the
brightest lawyer in Duluth and received
by far the largest number OF votes from
the bar association for the new judg-
ship. He was not appointed, but is not
kicking as Hon. j. D. Ensign, the senior
partner of the firm, was the favored
man.
Fellows like DR.. W. Seward Webb,
Vh0 have an aching desire to be
English. you know, and to throw on
style in the way they suppose English
lords do, would do well to watch more
closely the actions of real live English
noblemen when travelling in this cOun-
try. Lord Chesterfield, for instance,
who was here yesterday did not herald
his advent with flourish of trumpets.
His trip is probably more extended than
that of Dr. Webb, but he did not have
special trains of palaces on wheels made
to order. He just Travelled like an Ordi-
nary person, taking in base ball games
and having a good time without any
ostentation whatever. The same APP
plies to a number of other nOblemen of
undoubted wealth and gentility who
have from time to time visited this
country.
