Judge Clough gave the twenty TO the

Souvenir-Superlor," Is little
work just sent out by its publishers
the s. l.. Waterman Advertisingag en-
CIV, of the West End 1t was printed
at the Telegram Office and is all i'll all
a very creditable job. Perhaps it Is
not worth mentioning, but it attracted
our attention at once, that all the
Ads" belonging to the West End are
located at "West SUPERIOR those at
South Superior are SO designated, but
in all cases the East End is not once
mentioned, but institutions in this To-
cality are simply located in superior,
Wis" AS we say, it does not amount
to much, but still it looks like mighty
small business. But then the Tele
gram crowd are built that way.
Why don't the Mayor put stop
to this demoraliZing and degrading
practice of Sunday ball playing. 1t is
an open violation of law and an insult
to the law abiding portion of our citi-
zens. We had hoped that this would
not become the general order of bust
ness and for one or two violations we
would say nothing, but it has become
the regular thing, and games are
planned for this day and it is high
ct
demand that the authorities do put
stop to it.
Jim Blrdon is 50 uacharitabla
as to hint that perhaps Judge Clough
had been over to Duluth, Tuesday
morning, and had bet heavy on the
wrong scull and then got up the rob
Der story to account for his shortage
when he got home. We don't hardly
believe this story however. We think
the judge Is sharp enough to bet on
the winning side and then he wouldn't
suuel even if he happened to lose his
pile.
F. 3. Harvey and family will leave
us in short time to again take up
their abode in Minneapolis. Mr.. Har
vey will go next week, but Mrs. IL.
and the children will remain here some
longer on account of Mrs Harvey's
illness, she not yet beng able to travel
Mr.. Harvey is private secretary to
Paul BlacImar, and Mr. Blackmar Is
moving all his offices and business back
to Minneapolis. What effect will this
have on the South Superior boom?
If any one thinks our Forge Works
Is small concern, let him take walk
down there and look it oyer once.
When he sizes up those ponderous
hammers and immense and powerful
lathes for turning out the heaviest
kinds of machinery he will soon change
his mind. 1t Is also gratifying to
know that the plant has all ii can pos
sibly do, and probably next year it will
at least double its present capacity.
1t is an institution that is credit to
our city.
-O'IIare, Wortley & Co, will, until
August 1st, sell lots an 18th and 14th
streets, between Thompson and Beck
er avenues tor 81 400 and 1,5O0 per
pair, \ large number of elegant resi-
dences are being erected in this local
ity, and any person who wishes to own
| property in the most desirable resi-
dent portion of the city should buy a
pair of these lots before all are sold.
WHY is it that our street ear com
panv will stoop so low as to make of
itself an advertising medium for Sun
day base ball playing? On the inside
are respectable, law-abiding people 60
ing to church. while on the outside is
IA great sheet with flaming red and blue
letters announcing a Sunday ball game.
1t is a disgrace to the company and an
insult to its every day patrons and to
all lovers of law and order. We do not
think the city ever granted a street
railway charter for any such purpose
Francis Parkman, the historian,
will contribute to Harper's Magazine
for August an interesting article de
scribing his experience, more than
forty years ago. in the convent of the
passionists at Rome. Mr.. Parkman
was led into a convent by the same mo-
tives that short time Later led him to
become domestlcated in the lodges OF
the Sioux Indians; but he declares
that, after all. he much preferred the
company of the savages to that of the
monks.
