Ehey Came! They Saw! And Were
Convinced.

The Wisconsin editors, many of
them accompanied by their wives and
lew invited guests, to the number of
about two hundred, visited our CITY AZ
per announcement, Thursday morning.
Their special train reached here at
about five O'Clock in the morning and
at half past Ska committee of citizens
met them at the train and gave them
welcome. The weather, which had
been smiling on us in great shape for
the past month, suddenly got worked
over into fearful moode, and the
rain began to fall. Carriages were
secured as soon as possible and the
party transferred to The Euclid,
where they were given an elegant
breakfast, in the preparation of which
landlord Taylor did himself and his
house much credit.
The rain prevented the party from
going out to see particular points Of
interest, but all of them-except Bro.
Ginty, of Chippewa went to the roof
and tower of the hotel, where one of
the finest views ever spread before an
admiring audience greeted them.
From this elevated position the be-
holder gets birds eye view of nat
ure's panorama, with much of mans
Work added, including a full view of
Superior, Duluth and her hills beyond,
the lake, the bays and the wealth of
pine forest in the background, all com
bining to make truly beautiful pic
ture even on rainy morning To
look upon the picture was to convert
the soul, and the work of ''regenera-
ton of heart wrought from that
housetop will be fully understood
when our exchanges are all in.
Hon. Ignatus Donnelly, and wife, a
charming lady, by the way, were
among the invited guests not of the
state, and the man who has located
Atlantis and found out who wrote
Shakespeare works, was eagerly
sought for, as all wanted to at least
shake hands with him. Pecks Bad
Boy and the ''Old man" were here, but
the old gent don't eat caramels now
but confines himself to straight gum.
Gov. Hoard was called away by tele-
gram and could not make one of the
party, but sent Bro. Ginty, the heavy
weight editor of the state to ell his
place-he can do it.
1t was a jolly party of friends, and
at 10 O'Clock we escorted them to the
bay where they boarded the Flowboy
and took ride about the bay and to the
West End where they all took dinner
at the Tower and at the Vest Superior
hotels, this was followed by the usual
after dinner toasts and responses, ad
dress of welcome, etc, all of which
were excellent but which we are un-
able to reproduce here.
The committee of gentlemen APP
pointed by the East End Chamber of
Commerce to receive and look after
the guests, return thanks TO all who
rendered them valuable assistance in
that direction and especially to the
ladies who came out 50 early i'll the
morning and rendered such excellent
service.
Owing to the proyerbial modisty
of the craft, many of the visiting
brothers did not give the name of the
paper they represented when register
ing, consequently that item cannot be
given with the following list of names

trip down the lake to Iron River for
fish. They took passage with the
Outing" Mr.. Pattison's handsome
little yacht, and if the fish down there
have any gumption they will surrender
without a struggle when they see the
enemy get into line.

Brother Stafford seems to be in
hard Iuck lately. Two weeks ago to-
morrow instead of going to church as
he ought to have done, he played
hockey" and went to see the game of
base ball. During the game a = hot
liner caught him in the eye and
changed his complexion to several diff
ferent colors. Again last Saturday he
was spinning one of his big fish stories
to the boys down on Quebec pier when
he was about to take the boat, and
gazing around to observe the effect he
was having on the boys he missed his
footing and dropped into the bay and
came near beng food for fishes before
he could be pulled out. 1t is said that
the first thing he did when he got
home was to hunt Up his prayer book
and resolve to lead a better life.

The boat ride taken by our people
and visitors a few days ago was very
pleasant and enjoyable one, except,
perhaps, for the hour we were out on
the lake, where the rather stiff breeze
and high sea made some sick and all
more or less nervous. But the run up
the st. Louis bay and back to Quebec
pier was delightful and enjoyed by all,

u. S. Senator James Il. Beck, OF
Kentucky, and one of the heaviest
real estate holders in Superior, arrived
here Monday and has been spending
the week with us. We doubt not the
senator viii see the great Importance
of preserving Minnesota and Wiscon-
sin Points intact as breakWaters to our
most excellent harbor, and that the
only safe way to get at this matter is
for the general government to acquire
ownership in these strips Of land.
These points are worth more to Du-
luth and Superior ten times over, as
parks, than they could be for any
other purpose, to say nothing of their
incalculable value as breakwaters to
the st. Louis, Superior and Alloues
bays, where our shipping finds refuge.

Peanut Culture.

The peanut is a leguminous plant.
1t is also known by the names ground
pen and grorrdrut and in some parts
of the Southern States it is called PIN
dar, and elsewhere geober. The bo-
tanical name is araohis hypogaa. The
exact nativity of the peanut is not
known, but it is thought to be indigen-
Gus to Western Africa. 1t is cultivated
in all tropical countries, most extern
sively perhaps on the west coast of
AfrieH, where immense quantities are
raised to supply the European market.
1t is largely cultivated in South Amer
lea also, and in our Southern States it
is a very important crop. Two varieties
of the nut are recognized-the Virginia
nut, which is much the larger, and the
Carolina or African. The plant is an
annual, with many trailing branches,
with small leaves, and small yellow
flowers. After the flower falls off from
the end of each little branchlet, the
pod forming in its place is gradually
forced into the ground by the elonga-
ton of its stalk. If this is prevented
in any way the nut does not form, as it
can only develop when covered with
earth. For the cultivation of this fa-
vorite article of food-one is at loss
whether to class it among fruits or veg
ctabies-good rich land, with an adj
mixture OF sand, should be selected. 1t
should especially be free from red
clay, as that stains the shells and
lowers the quality and price of the
nuts. In April the land should be
marked off into the burrows three feet
apart, and in these two peas, deprived
of their shells, are dropped at inter-
walls of eighteen inches and covered
an inch and half deep. The young
plants should be well weeded, and
as soon as they begin to blossom the
drills should be bedded up on each
side. This is to afford soft soil
for the young nuts to strike into.
After the pods begin to bury them
selves in the ground the crop needs
no further attention until after the
frost, when it is generally ripe
enough to harvest The vines are dug
with pronged hoes, allowed to lie a few
days to dry, and then stacked in shed
to cure. In fortnight or so they arr
whipped from the vines, cleansed in
tanning mill, and put into sacks fol-
market. The natural nuts are OF
very dark brown color with rough
shells, but they are made more at
tractivs by being passed through thu
fumes Of burning sulphur, which

THE WOMAN TO MARRY.
Bob Burdette Takes Hand in the Dis
cussion of the Marriage Question.

Bob Burdette Takes Hand in the Dis
cussion of the Marriage Question.
'.You say you demand a domestic,
useful woman as your wife. If that is
SO, marry Nora Mulligan, your laun-
dress daughter. She wears cowhide
shoes, is guiltless of corsets, never
takes in washing, goes out house
cleaning, and cooks for family OF
seven children, her mother and three
section men board with her. don't
think she would marry you, because
Con Reagan, the track walker, is her
style of man. Let us examine into
your qualifications as a model husband
after your matrimonial ideas, my boy.
Can you shoulder barrel of flour and
carry it down cellar? Can you saw
and split ten cords of hickory wood in
the fall so as to have ready fuel all
winterP Can you spade up half acre
of ground for kitchen garden? DO
you know what will take the lime taste
out of the new cistern, and can you patch
the little leak in the kitchen roof
Can you bring home pane of glass
and a wad of putty and repair damages
in the little sitting room window? Can
you hang some cheap paper on the
kitchenP Can you fix the front gate
so it will not swagp Can you do any
thing about the house that Con Reagan
camp My dear, dear boy, you see
Nora Mulligan wants higher type of
true manhood. You expect to hire
men to do all the mans work about the
house, but you want your wife to do
any thing any woman can do. Believe
ne, my son, that nine-tenths of the
girls who play the piano and sing so
charmingly. whom you in YOUR limited
knowledge set down as mere butter
flies of fashion, are better fitted for
wives than you are for husband. If
you want to marry a first-class cook
and experienced housekeeper, do your
counting in the intelligence office. But
If you want wife, marry the girl you
love, with dimpled hands and face like
the sunlight. and her love will teach
her all these things, my boy, long be-
fore you have learned iIc=tti5sittt G. j-cou;r,

IDEAS OF INVENTORS.


A "rooToMErER has been invented
which will make noise that can be heard
ten miles.
A GAS stove has been invented to rival
the bookcase folding-bed. 1t is concealed
in a handsome colonial clockcase.
A NEW carpenter rule has been invented
by a Boston mechanic. 1t is of novel con-
struction, and aside from its uses as rule
makes o very handy bevel or square, in
which legs may be adjustably clamped In
any desired position.
AN ingenious blind boy, Willie Perkins,
of Greensboro, KY, IS said TO have invent
ed writing machine for the blind and to
have received 5000 from San Francisco
firm for the right to manufacture and sell
the machine in the United States.
A BRIDGEPoRT (Conn.l inventive genius
has perfected locomotive attachment, in
the nature of a phonograph, whereby every
blast of the whistle is recorded, together
with the exact time at which it occurs. This
will be of great use to railways sued for
accident damages.
DR.. EIsENMANN, of Berlin, has invented
piano which, by the aid of electromagnetic
ism, can sustain, increase and diminish
sound. This has been attempted by other
experts, notably Boehm, the inventor of
the metal flute. Another novelty will be
that, by moving the electromagnetic, the
timbre Of the tone is changed; for example,
from that of violonoello TO piccolo.
Mr. Edison has, it is stated, devised a
doll with a small photograph inside, which
talks when the handle turned. The pho
nograph is placed in receptacle within the
chest of the doll and the handle protrudes
When 1t is turned the words appear to issue
from the dolls mouth. Edison has also de-
yiscd clock which an, ounces the time by
speaking, tho talking apparatus being, OF
