has assumed her greenest gar5, and the
landlords their summer smiles. The
fish in the lake-prOtected by a wise
law until the 18th of May-snap their
tails in defiance at their ruthless enc
mics, the fishermen; and even the bull
frog on the bank is allowed to crOak
his little croak in the undisturbed
seclusiOn of the marsh. But though
it be early in the season, many cottagers
have arrived, and the hotels are open
for business in anticipation OF the COM
ing rush. Already number of FAM
lilies are comfortably installed at the
Williams house. Hotel Leip will open
for regular business on the 18th inst,
and the Chateaugay is now open and
ready for business. A number of new
homes on the DellwoOd shore and at
Mahtomedi have been built. The level
ing of the old Indian mOund-which
has been at the lake longer than Uncle
Billy Styles-and the widening of the
drive along the lake shore resulted in
stupendOus, though unavailing kick
front lots. And, indeed, it does seem a
little rough ON the property owners to
have several feet taken from the front
of their lots by the village council,
and especially SO when they
don't get any pay for it. Be-
sides this, some magnificent trees
which stood in the way of the road
have been removed. A number of the
officers of the White Bear Yacht club
are now at the lake and are making
active preparations for the coming re-
gattas, and interest in boating matters
is looking up per consequence. AM
eighty-fOOt lawn tennis court is to be
laid out at Leip's for the benefit of the
Cottage Park club: and further up the
lake new club has just been organ
Musser, secretary and E. d. Klots.
treasurer. Generous financial support
for the purpose of fitting up courts.
ETC., has been extended to them by
neigbbOring cOttagers. Their grounds
are located on the shore road just west
ofClark avenue. A tournament with the
Cottage Park club is probability
of the future. Hugh Donnelly says he
will run his naphtha boats, the Don
QuiXOte and Crawford Livingston, to-
day. if the weather permits, and by next
Sunday he expects to adopt regular
schedule of running time. A. E. Lea
mon is building boat TWENTY-FIVE feet
long to run by electricity, the motive
battery, with capacity for a six-hours
steady run. The machinery will run
like clock-work, with no noise, smoke
or heat, and high rate of speed is ex-
pected. Under the new management
the Duluth road seems to be giving
universal satisfaction, and one does not
hear the constant complaints against
the road that used to be the chief topic
of conversation. The freight. tracks
have been moved away from the station,
and there will be no more blockades.
An amusing incident occurred the
other evening. Two more or less low
ing couples sat in the old summer house
opposite the vacant lots near Clark ave-
water. and was old, and as false as
loves young dream, for without any
warning it suddenly collapsed. like the
celebrated ''One-hOrSe shay" turned
complete somersault and stood on its
head in some three feet of water, then
settled down into confused mass of
rotten shingles, broken lattice work and
miscellaneous debris, including the four
struggling victims, who were not hurt,
though badly demoralized.
