A Good Thing for Ole Superior.

This is the first opportunity for peo.
pie in Superior to purchase their fur
goods at home and to get reliable
goods, as the fraud in furs has been
practiced for quite long time. It is
high time that some one enlightened
the honest people of Superior on the
important question Where shall / go
to get my Furs this Winter so / will
not get Beat:' This is an everyday
conversation, especially among the
the ladies. You can get them now
right in Superior. The San Francisco
Tailors will furnish you anything in
furs you may desire and deal square
with you, at manufacturers prices, if
you want good goods. If you want
cheap, trash and pieced together furs
you cannot get them from US, but we
will sell you good goods at the same
price as you pay for cheap trash, may
be little cheaper. 1t will not cost
you anything to call in and find out
the way of obtaining your fur goods.
1nay come direct from eastern manu-
facturers and are made to your order,
OR you can get them ready made. All
goods warranted to be strictly first
class, and in garments the latest
of this winter are represented and fit
ting guaranteed or no sale.
In our merchant tailoring line we do
not spare any effort to please the pub
lie, and we offer big Inducements to
all who get their clothes made to
order, as times are little quiet just
now. In order to keep our force of
men, We VIII sell you good goods lower
than any house at the head Of the
lakes. We also make ladies' garments
of cloth IN all the leading styles.

be made to relieve their restitution
and make them comfortable during
the winter.

W. C. Tonkin, the man who
claims to have recently discovered a
paying silver vein near here has again
been talking. While he is still very
reticent as to locality, etc, it is be
lieved that his find is on the Mime
sofa side of the st. Louis river, and
and not far from the town of Fond du
Lac If this theory is correct it is not
necessary to know much more about it.
1t is probably the same cid hole GER
tain Duluth parties worked with great
advantage to themselves and a CORE
spending loss to their victims, some
six or seven years ago. A big blow
was made about it then, the find was
advertised extensively, and a good
deal Of money was sunk in it 10y out
side parties, lands increased in values,
and then the whole thing went UP in
smoke, just as all ''salted' claims do.
Better go little slow on these Duluth
silver finds.

What Ti.e Editor Himself Says.

From Dfakes Magazine,
But noticeable effect of this wide
spread interest in sport upon boys of
sixteen or Whereabouts, is their appar
ent desire to be considered fly" to
swagger more or less mentally or 9th
wlse--and to dispose of sensible sub
jects with a flippancy which they i'm
agine passes for wit.
By the time boy gets to be eighteen
or twenty years old, he should have ar
rived at few reasonable conclusions
about politics. the social relations and
religion. He should have read many
famous books and be familiar with
the names of eminent men. He should
have learned to think for himself.
The sporty boy is accomplishing
none of these things. He worships
conventional accomplishments in 9th
ers, aims at accomplishments himself,
and accompllshes nothing His ten
dency is TO be careless of the opinions
of those whose good opinion is yalu-
able, and that is long step toward
good for -nothingness. Less and less
his finer feelings respond to their key
note. THE saddest thing under the
sky" says Ingersoll, 81 is soul incapa-
pable of Sadness" and the sporty"
boy thinks it must be weak, and there
fore despicable to be moved by the en-
otions, the leaven which sweetens the
character His ideal is the imam of
the world" who. according to an ac-
quaintance of ours, sis usually we'll
acquainted with the other members of
his family--the flesh and the devil"
He is great man who inhabits a
great sphere of thought, but he is not
bound to shut himself up in it. We do
not mean that healthy young fellows
should spend all their time wrestling
with weighty problems that have puz-
zled the thinkers OF all times.
But we do mean that this close and
constant contact with brainlesS and
material amusement tends to distOrt
the proportionate Importance OF brains
refinement and good taste.

w iii am T. Coleman, chairman of
the famous San Francisco Vigilance
Committees of 1851, 1856, and 1851, in
account of their work which he has
written for the November Century,
refers to the recent lynchlng at New
Orleans, and tells what he thinks the
people of California would have done
under the same circumstances. They
would have organized in full force, he
says, formed a court, appointed judge
and selected jury: called for evidence
analyzed it carefully, put on trial the
people who had been discharged by the
prejudiced jury, given the accused good
council and the benefit of every doubt,
and finally would have executed with
due dciiparation those whom they
found guilty.

 The Danbury Election.
 DANBURY, April 27.-The republicans made clean sweep to-day, carrying the democratic stronghold for mayor, city clerk and every man on the ward tickets, except one councilman. Charles s. Peck, republican, was elected mayor by vote of 1890 to 1,505 for William Foley, the dem ocratic candidate. A. G. Isaacs, republi- can, was elected city clerk. The common council next year will stand republicans to democrats. The prohibitionists turned in and helped elect Peck in order to free the city from the ring rule of the past few years.
