ELLINGSWORTH AND LUCIE.
Both Men Are Probably ON Their Way
Here.

Here.
The directors of the Seattle Athletic Club
deny that there is any truth whatever in
the story that Mike Lucie, signed for go
with Joe Ellingsworth before the club early
in August. had backed out of the match.
Secretary Ed McGary, jr., received q tele-
gram from Secretary Gibbs of the Califor-
MIA club yesterday afternoon, stating that
Lucie's ticket had not arrived, and that he
wanted it in order to leave for Seattle yes
terday evening Secretary McGary, who
forwarded the ticket nearly a week ago,
made arrangements with the Northern Pa
cific for another ticket to be delivered to
Lucie in San Francisco on a telegraphic
order from here. He will receive the ticket
today and will leave there tonight. Filings
worth was to have left San Francisco yes
terday for Seattle, and it is more than
likely that he did.
Immediately after arriving the men will
enter training for the contest. Neither has
yet secured training quarters, but one will
probably work at the Cliff house at Lake
Union and the other somewhere on Lake
Washington.
George Strong, one of California's best
l20-pound pugilists, is in the city in search
of ma CHI. He is willing to contest before
club or back himself for any amount.
He is also ready to post forfeits on the
challenges of Patsy Muiligan, of Tacoma,
and Pool, of Olympia, who both recently
expressed willingness to meet all corners
at their weights. Communications ad-
dressed to the sporting editor of the Posi-
lNTELLIG ENCER will reach Strong.

A NEW VILLAGE.


The village of Rapidan is growing rap
idly, and will be plated as town.
Property hasadvanced two or three hum
dred per cent, and there is every indi-
cation that there will be boom there
next spring. The linseed oil mill is
hauling large amount of fax, and is
employing score or more of hands.
Several shops have been opened, and
there is talk of large general store to
be located there next year. 1t ia also
reported that one Of the county papers
will remove to that point in the spring
and will boom the village. It is said
that little colony of people intend to
locate there. Ample water power can
be had for several factories, and upon
this those who are back of the move
place their hopes for the future growth
of the village. 1t is possible that rail
road will be constructed from the place
to connect with the Milwaukee roaC
two miles away. The village is located
eight miles from this city, as the crow
flies, but ten miles by road. 1t is stu
ated in the valley beyond the Nelson
farm. Its location is pleasant. Th,
outlook is bright that town of no NEAR
proportions will soon spring up there
Those who are interested in the plac,
have great faith In it's future. The,
claim that the rich deposits of clay, ant
other substances, with the fine farm
ing lands surrounding will produce
live town.

Congressman Lind has secured the
promise of the fish commission to place
10000 900 wall eyed pike in the Mime

greatly improve the fishing in that river
and its tributaries.

any money that is spent on repairs is

The money spent in repairing the old
one would soon pay for the new struc-

Our citizens haye never before seen
in Mankato 80 fine stock or store 80
elegantly trimmed as that to which Mr..
w. W. P. Mcconnell welcomed the pub
lie Yesterday. 1t was his annual grand
opening for the holiday season, and the
magnificent Christmas display is well
worth long trip to see. The cost and
elegance of the decorations are only
equaled by the taste of the arrange
ment. AS it would be impossible to do
it justice here, we will simply advise
everyone to call and see it for himself,
for seeing is admiring. The large stocks
of silks, satins, muffiers, handkerchiefs,
etc., attract great deal of attention,
and the line of plush goods is very COM
plete. The fancy table and toilet linen
10 unsurpassed. Mr.. Mcconnell has re-
ceived a large line of the best black
silks on the market, which are sold at
twenty-five per cent. less than eyer be-
fore. 1t is undoubtedly the finest line
ever exhibited in the city.
Those in search of Christmas presents
should call early as the various arti-
Giles are going rapidly. Almost any
thing wanted, from Christmas card to
the costliest articles of dress or toilet,
are on the counters for the inspection
of customers, and the force of courteous
clerks has been increased to meet anv
demands. Mr.. Mcconnell informs us
that he never had more complete
stock of Christmas goods, and they are
ali of the latest pattern.
