FOURTH DIVISION.
Unique and Classic Designs Were
Chosen by Manufacturers.

Practical even to the prosaic was the
fourth division of the pageant. 1t was
the manufacturers epoch, but 1t was
relieved now and then by an episodical
exposition that bordered on the pictur-
esque. AS a whole, however, it EN-
| braced the mechanical devices of mod
ern times, the fruit of ingenuity aud
| product of mechanical minds. These
were elaborated and embellished, and
| flowers and pretty maidens made the
aspect refreshing and delightful to the
! spectators. Gustave Scholle, the beau
ideal of horseman and model official,
served as the chief marshal, and he was
assisted by an especially efficient corps
of aids. They were twelve in number,
and they made fine display all by
themselves.
Considered sequentally, so that there
can be no possible claim of Partially,
following the band came the float that
represented the industry Of Lanpher,
Finch IL Skinner. The conception
of the floats, and this firm had two in
the parade, were of the happiest sort.
The first represented polar bear
scene. There were gigantic icebergs,
and frozen in their embraces was boat,
somewhat wrecked, and pretty seri-
ousiy crippled. Seals were dis
played at different points on the
float, basking in the sunshine
Of the day, and still looking
cool under the influence of the
scenic effects of the ice and foes. The
EsqumauX were prominent figures, Sit
ting about with fonchalance upon the
ice bergs and viewing in peaceful res
ignation the two huge polar bears that

This float was drawn by four powerful
gray horses. This was supplemented by
"a smaller float representing the manu-
facture OF fur goods, and the wOrkmen
at their tasks presented a univue and
novel appearance.
The st. Paul Gas Light and the Edi-
son Electric company had fine float in
line. 1t was drawn Dy four horses, and
all the appliances and apparatus en-
ployed i'll the manufacture and conduct
OF the business was conspicuOusly dis
played. The center represented the
world, marked with all the points and
geographical things of interest to the
observer. This globe was surmounted
by the American eagle, and lots of
handsome decorations. A miniature
locomotive occupied place In the front
portion of the float, and then there was
the telephone. a steamboat and an in
eandescent light display and other
things in goodly array.
Mast, Buford Il Burwell's float was
one of the noticeable effects Of the pa
geant. 1t was drawn by four proud
horses, and there was galaxy of agri-
cultural implements and the like ar
ranged in artistic style. The display
was embellished by mounted corps of
gaily attired cavaliers, and the display
of irideScent hues was dazzling in the
bright sunlight. The horsemen wore

SECOND DIVISION,
Showing st. PauPs Early History
and Primitive Transportation

Showing st. Paul's Early HistoI y
and Primitive Transportation
Methods.
In the second division were grouped
events in history in the most impressive
fashion. The older settlers took more
pride IN this than any other part of the
parade, and the later generation had n
opportunity to see many things pictured
i'll real life that are only familiar to
them i'll print. The division was in
command Of l.. d. Wilkes, with F. b.
Kellog, w. &. Strickland, r. E. Cobb,
John Swnborne and }. Y. Rothschild as
aids. Heading this division were Indian
trappers and others, showing their
mode of transportation; this was
rude harness OF rope and
thongs. by which two poles were
attached TO prairie ponies lead by
squaWs and fastened to the poles were
the furS and baggage. There were
other Indian warriors with implements
ct war, including battle axes, bows and
arrows. John Soto, eighty-four years
old, comrade of Gen. Sbley and the
oldest trapper in the state, is Sioux
Indian who marched with the division
decked in eagle feathers and war paint.
Chief Henry Cloud, the secretary of the
Sioux tribe; Henry Jones, Sam Blue
stone and other Indians were painted
and decked out in feathers as in the old
times. There was float representing
the early French voyageurs ascending
the Mississippi In canoe in 1850. The
seven men at the paddles sang along
the line of march. The float was drawn
by six horses, four at the wheel and two
leaders.
The float bearing a miniature of the
first log church in the city, and after
which st. Paul was named, was drawn
by four wheel horses and two leaders.
The church was covered with bark, and
was double cabin of the rude type. 1t
was erected in 1S41 by Father Gaultier.
An escort OF twenty Frenchmen, in cos
tunes of the early days, followed the
float There were two OF the one-hOrse
Red river carts of 1861 which ran to
Winnipeg in thirty days, with the prlm-
tive harness in use in. early times. The
aXles Of the carts were of wood. and
wooden linchpins held the large and
tirelcss wheels in place. The typical
prairie schooner, with its canvas cover
and stovepipe extending from the rear
end, was in its place, with dog under
it and two lean cows attached by ropes
TO the rear.
There were mail carriers on horse
back. Then there was the old mail
coach that ran from st. Paul to Fort
Mead, Deadwood and Grand Forks,
1rawn by four horses. In the coach
we're b.. w. Brunson. S. p. Falsom, c.

THIRD DIVISION.
State and Municipal Floats Pre-
sent Fine Spectacles,

The third division moved out of Lo-
Gust street promptly on time. Beautiful
is the one word of general meaning that
describes the appearance of this part of
the parade. Clever men had worked
out ingenious, instructive, novel and
significant conceptions; and the result
was an enhancing. moving picture of
civilization, progress and material
achievement, That it appealed to all
minds and made deep impression on
all hearts was amply evidenced by the
reception accorded each passing part of
the splendid line of state and municipal
triumphal cars. A guard of honor.

Marshal j. H. Beck had command of
the division, with E. A. Jaggard, l.. A.

McKibbin Fur company. 1t represented
a tropical jungle and natural history in
a degree that attracted the ADAPTATION
of all school children. There We're eX-
otto and indigenous plants. blooming
flowers and bright foliage, and in the
midst were galaxy of forbidding,
feroclous beasts of prey, from which the
python was not omitted. In the very
center of this scene was q charming
picture. Miss Marsh represented an
oriental queen, crowned with jewels and
gold. Her rich. raven locks hung loose,
and were waited to the breeze. In her
hand was grasped the sword of progress.
and on all sides posed the members OF

shooters. Indians, Turks and Arabs in
this display, and the whole was drawn
by eight horses.

"OUR BOYS" FINE SHOW.
Firemen and Apparatus Hailed
With Loyal Acclaim.

Half-an-hOur before the parade proper
started the crowds were treated to
pleasing and unique display made by
the ST. Paul fire department.. Headed
by band of music, the forty-one pieces
of apparatus in the department were
driven over the line of march, and it
goes without saying that this part Of
the parade was success. The mem
bers of the fire board in carriages
headed the procession, followed by
Chief Jackson and his assistants, while
behind them came the engines, hook
and ladder trucks, chemicals and hose
carts. The pieces of apparatus were
handsomely decorated, each of the COM
panies seemingly entering with a spirit
of rivalry in an effort to Guido the other.
The result was dazzling display of
artistic decorations. The fancy trim
mings did not stop at the engines,
trucks or chemicals, but nearly every

The fine toAoggan slide and rink,
constructed by the street car company
on the Nemadji river, was formally
opened to the public Thursday even
ing The rink is situated on the river
at the east end Of Fifth street ana is

OF Course You Want 1t,

The Stinson avenue street car line is
what we want. The South Shore road
is building its passenger depot on
Stinson and Nineteenth. Sunson is
already paved from the bay to the new
depot. Of course street cars VIII be
necessary to reach the depot; only a
little farther this way and the South
Superior settlements are reached.
| There is also being built now a large
barrel factory between here and Old
Town and other industries are going
i'll between the towns. Oh, it Won t
be long before the East End and South
Superior Will grow together as also
Will W est Superior and South Superior.
We find the above item in the South
Superior Sun of last week. OF course
! tie people of South Superior want the
street car line as above described
They also want good wagon read to
the East End and StinSon or Thomp-
son avenue should be paved through
this season. This is the natural chan
mel for the lake traffic and the Chicago
rail traffic for the South Superior bust
ness man to take. Here is the direct
and natural entry to Superior Bay
from the lake, and three years from
now - per cent. of all the freights
coming up the lakes for Superior Will
be landed on the docks at the East
End
South Superior has no legitimate
connection or natural utilization with
the West End, That connection is .
forced one and was never intended or
thought OF when the south Superior
scheme was first started. The origin
atorS Of that scheme intended that it
should be a part Of the East End and
received financial assistance with that
understanding, but later the Land
and River Improvement Company got
hold of the leaders and for a few pal
try dollars bought them up body and
breeches, and the East End people
were disgracefuIly sold out by the St
Paul and Minneapolis charlatans.
The people of South Superior are
now numerous enough and strong
enough to throw off this yoke of bond
age and cease to serve the men who
would rob them of their postotlice,
their homes, their business, their all,
if they could, if il could be turned to
their private benefit. Let the South
Superior aldermen, business men and
citizens generally join hands with the
IL, -
among which is The opening upat once
of a good thoroughfare between these
two points.

4 FEARFUL FALL.
First s'atai Accident at the Mills.

One Of the most shocking accidents
we have yet been called upon to record
occurred ut about three o'clock We'd
nesday afternoon at the Listman mill.
One of the painters, Mr.. Fred Xix,
was erecting a Scatfold III the seventh
story of the mill near the elevator
shaft and while walking backward
and drawing plank after him he
stepped off into the shaft and fell head
long to the floor Il distance of nearly
one hundred feet. In his fall he struck
and broke two tWo-inch plank which
lay across the shaft below him. He
struck square upon his head which
crashed through the inch flooring up
to his shoulders. He WAS horribly
mangled. The body was taken to the
undertaking establishment of MessrS.
Logue and Whitney where an inquest
was held, the verdict Of which was
that she came to his death by acct
dentally falling down shaft i'll the
Listman mill" The unfortunate man
was - years Of age and a single man.
He has a brother, Joseph X Nix, and
a sister, Mrs VIM. Tiedman, living in
the city. The remains were taken to
DyersYlilc, Iowa for burial.

school Ii0!sc wanted.

We wish to call the attention Of the
city council and the board of eduCa-
ton to the fact that another good
school house is already needed IN the
first ward. The capacity Of the Mel
son Dewey was over run a year ago,
and miserable cold store building has
been used for school room since. The
room IS cold and totally unfit for
school purposes in this cold climate,
and besides al this, that room is no
longer large enough, and when the
next school year opens another build
ing viii have to he rented to accom-
modate the pupils.
This matter should be taken up
right now, the location selected, the
plans approved and the contract let
50 that work on the building could be
commenced at the earliest practical
moment and thus have the building
ready for the new school year i'll Sep
tember next. If this course is not pur-
sued we Will have no building before
1894 at best. Our Aldermen and mem
Der of the school board should give the
powers that he no rest until this mat
ter is accomplished.

No Flies On south Range.

\ friend out at South Range, one of
the live suburbs OF Superior, sends us
the following items which are right to
the point and tell the whole story in a
few words We hope to hear from
there often. He says:
South Range is alive.
All streets now properly located.
Old buildings torn down, and every
family has a brand new house.
Two more wells of good water and
plenty Of it.
The big mill was burned, but has
been rebuilt and is running, with an
other one being built.
Our school house is fully equipped
with blackboards, charts globes, maps,
etc, with successful teachers and a
full attendance of pupils
Walkers elegant green house with
steam heat has six hundred plants and
flowers in fun bloom and presents Il
very attractiye appearance.
Mr.. Gill has new store in which
the post office is now located. Mr..
Gill is fine business man and carries
good stock.
Our town huildinn is now furnished
with good fire proof vault for the
81 fety Of the town records and other
yaluahleS 1t has also been Partition
ed off so that the several officers have
separate rooms.
We also have spacious hail for pub
lie assemblies III which they had Il real
old fashioned Christmas gathering
last week, with two Christmas trees,
speeches, songs, recitations and hap
ny time for old and young, and pres
ent for every one who came.

Unless one pays some attention to it
and has an interest i'll It, he knows lit
tie of what is going OF III q hospital.
For many years Superior got along
/ without a hospital, but it would be
hard to get along without good hos
pital now. BY inquiry of Mother
Helen, who is at the head OF st. Fran.
els Hospital, we learn something of
what has been going on i'll that insti-
tuition during the past year 50 far as
the records show, but of the suffering,
and distress and SORROW, and the death
bed scenes we can never know any
thing.
During the year the hospital has
/ received 500 patients, which is an av-
eragc Of y patients per day OF this
number 77j have been discharged IS
cured Of their ailments; II have died;
IS are c0nyalescent and on the road to
permanent recovery, and S are on the
roll of incurables.
Typhoid fever has held prominent
PLACE i'll the list Of diseases, though
this disease has appeared in mild
form generally during the past year,
and III city like ours there are many
accidents.
The managers of the hospital, from
the highest to the lowest, are untiring
II their efforts to make their unfortu-
nate visitors as comfortable as pos
Sible, and in these endeayorS they are
ably assisted by our people generally,
by contributions OF flowers to cheer,
and delicacies to tempt the appe tite,
Of literature for the conyalescent,
and many other little matters which
go to cheer and comfort the mfortu-
nate, for all which the management
requests us to return for them their
hearty thanks

still doing a good work in Superior.
bat it is no longer able to do all that is
to be done in that line, and another
one will have to he built, or its capac-
ity at least doubled the coming year
The probabilities are that another

Could be Closed If SO Ordered,

\ few days ago we were talking
with high up official about our miser-
able Fifth street gambling den and in
CURED if there was no way by which
1t could be closed. We got for reply:
Not under this administration. y
The talk then became more general
and this official said to us that if Mayor
Scott would instruct his chief of police
TO close the gambling houses of the
city, with the honest purpose of hay
ing his orders ohcyed, there would not
be gambling den in the city at the
END OF the week But neither the
mayor nor his chief want these places
closed. The reader can draw his own
conclusions why these places are not
closed How long VIII the respectable
people submit TO this system of govern
