Highest Notch at the
Lake.
Pa rites and Hops Follow Each
Other in Dazzling Sue

This Seasons Gaiety Has
Never Been Equaled at
White Bear.
Personal Pointers Gathered
From the Cottages and
the Hotels.

The near approach of the last days of
August always bring to the minds of
many OF the temporary sojourners at
the lakeside an impression that the sea-
son Of summer pleasures is dead, and
That nothing remains but to bury all
recollection of the sunny days and the
moonlight nights beside the ripping
waters of White Bear by hurried re-
turn to the dusty streets and heated
walls OF town. Those who foolishly re-
turned to town the end of August last
year will remember how they longed
for the shady hooks ana breezy veran-
das of White Bear during the extremely
hot weather with which we were in
flicted during last September. The i'm
preston seems TO be getting abroad that
Minnesota is blessed with but two sea-
sonS-July and winter-while the other
parts of our country enjoy open-air life
during the merry month of May, sunny
June, noisy July, sultry August and
lovely, smoky September. Of course
the large majority of those who leave at
the end of August are from the hotel
guests. but why should they resign
the entire enjoyment of our beauti-
full month of September to their more
fortunate fellow men who happen to
possess cottages. Were it not for the
number of charitable entertainments
and benefits that are crOwding in upon
US. the season could hardly be said to
be Oh the wane. Sporting events and
church entertainments are crowding
close upon one another. Wednesday
| night there was the st. Mary'S church
| sOciable; Thursday evening the scene
phanCpd aud Of Moh
| Shows English Folly company kicked
| up their heels within the same four
walls. Saturday night Leip's hotel was
| filled with fair women and brave men,
nobly intent upon spending their time
| and mOney-eSpecially their money-in
the cause of charity, while at the same
time another party stole quietly away
! across the lake to a Seclude spot. where
they Toasted their desires and passions
with the animal pleasures of prize
light. TodOy there will be one of those
| highly moral and instructive entertain

| aerOnaut, Prof. Paul. And. knowing
all these things. there are those who will
still contend that the season has reached
its close. Forgive them, for they know
not what they Say.
