Council Proceedings.

The council did not do anything
startling at their session Tuesday even
ing. Several bills were allowed, and
resolutions intrduced and passed.
f. A. LeClaire was appointed to fill
i the vacancy on tho school board caused
by Mr.. Lyons resignation. 1t was a
| general surprise, as it seemed to be I'M
| derstood that Frank Jackson was to be
| appointed, but Mr.. jackson, at the re-
| quest Of the \. P. officials, which COM
pany he works for, positively refused
the position, thus the change was made.
A motion was made instructing the
Chief of Police to have an officer sta
toned at the Union depot.
A resolution introduced by Aid
Green carried, protesting to the comp
troller of the treasury and the United
States Senators against the appoint
ment OF any man as receiver ofthe sus-
pended banks who should be either
bondsmen or stakeholder or in any wav
interested in the banks.
A bill of $500 for the Duluth fire tugs
which were called upon at the time the
Daisy elevator burned was allowed.
Aid. Atkinson moved that the city
clerk be instructed to find out by what
authority the board of education had
gone on constructing the William Kim
ball school on Connors point. Mr.. At
kinson stated that he had heard that
they had not referred the plans to the
council, az they were required to do by
the charter, and thought it was advisa-
BILE to have the matter Strengthened out
now before some one should knock out
whole tax levy on account of anv ir-
regularity in the affair. The motion
passed.
The finance committee recommend
ed that tax of $247 900 be levied and
assessed against all property, real and
personal. Action will be taken at the
next meeting. The two following reso-
lutlons were introduced by Aid. Atkin-
son, passed.
First, authorizing the city treasurer
and city comptroller to cancel $40, 900 of
per cent bonds of the issue of July /
1890, due in seven years and optional
after five years, and to pay for the
same from the money now in the sewer
bond sinking fund. The treasurer was
authorized to deposit the necessary
amount of money in the National Bank
of the Republic in New York city.
The second resolution instructed the
comptroller and treasurer to purchase
and substitute for moneys in the gener-
al sinking fund Of the city, so, 600 ofthe
bonds issued by the city of Superior for
either street improvements or con
struction of sewers, dated July l, 1890
due i'll seven years, and optional after
five years
They did not reach the bank investi-
CATION matter until it was to late to lin
ger longer, and this will doubtless be
freely aired at the session tonight, Fri
day.

4 Horrible Accident.

4 most unfortunate affair occurred
late Monday night in the Lehigh Valley
coal yards on Tower Bay slip. Two
men, Mike HetFern and VIM. Kelley,
had been loading car with coal and
having finished started to 60 to another
one to assist in loading that. No one
knows why they did not see an APP
preaching car, coming down grade, but
it is evident they did not even hear the
voice of friend who called to them to
get off the track, and they were both
struck, and one, Mike HefTern killed
instantly, and the other one is now ~
ing at St. Mary's hospital, cripple for
lie, if he lives, as his back is broken.
Both men were unmarried, but Mr..
Kelley has mother and sister living
here whom he asked for at once.

Superior Ministries.

! That the people Of Superior enjoy a
! good minstrel performance was shown
/ last Tuesday night when the Superior
/ Minstrels held the boards at the Grand
/ opera house. The hard rain during
the early part Of the evening did not
! deter the holders of tickets from COM
ing out, and seldom has the Grand held
larger or more representative audi
ence, every seat in the house being
sold, and large number being obliged
to stand. The curtain went up at $40
and for three and half hours the large
audience witnessed one of the best
minstrel performances ever given IN
Superior. We will not attempt to say
what part was the best, 1t was all good,
and the hearty applause which followed
almost every number from the rise of
the curtain until it was rung down on
Capt. Newton's African Hussars, showed
that the entertainment WIS thoroughly
enjoyed by everybody. This Friday
evening the entire company leave in
special car, over the South Shore road,
for Marquette, Mich, where they will
give performance Saturday night,
returning Sunday morning.

Good Manner are Homc-Made.

Children must be taught what the
parents wish them to know. Teach
them truthful, gentle ways and they
will be true and gentle. If boy hears
bad language from his father he will re-
peat 1t just as certainly as he has a
tongue in his mouth; and if little girl
hears her mother gossip she VIII gossip
the moment she meets n PLAYMATE
People who devour their food like
cattle must not expect their children to
have nice table manners. Gentlemen
and good women are home made.
There is nothing on earth for which
one ought to be more thankful than for
having been brought up in the atmos-
pherc Of pure home. Such a home
NAV be narrow and even hard; it NAV
be deficient in material comforts. A
man as sturdy as an oak once said: 81
was the son of poor parents, and from
my youth up was insured to self-denial
and hardships, but do not remember
ever to have heard a word from the
lips of either my father or my mother

such recollections than a great inner
nce.-Mary Potter Langley.

A Shocking Accident.

The explosion which occurred Wed
nesday in the Journal office of Detroit,
whereby about forty people lost their
lives, and many others were injured,
has been found due to Carelessness, the
boilers being empty. The first intima.
ton the neighborhood had OF the disas-
ter was from the tremendous report fol-
lowed by a binding cloud Of debris,
smoke and steam, and before this had
cleared away the whole five floors and
the people working upon them were in
one ineXtricable wreck. The work of
rescue began al once, and most pitable
are the reports published of this work
men and women were found pinned
down by fallen timbers, brick and stone,
with broken limbs and bleeding wounds.
Some one must be held accountable for
such an accident, but even then the dead
will not be restored, nor the injured be
relieved from their suferings, but
those in charge of the mechanism of
public buildings must be taught the
responsibility of their position.

NApOLEON'S VALUE OF VICTORY.
IT Finds Striking Counterpart In Re.
cent World Triumphs

Napoleon knew we'll the value of a
victory. After Austerlitz the world
seemed his. Fame invited, fortune
favored, everything stimulated his as.
plring ambition. With growing power
he gathered the fruits Of victory. And
SO has it ever been. Success succeeds.
4 notable illustration of this truth is
furnished by the great victory won at
the Worlds Fair in 1893 and the Cali
fornia Midwinted Fair in 1884 by DR..
Prices Cream Baking Powder Ever
increasing sales and popularity have
been the result. Tie people have
promptly ratified the official verdicts
that declared DR.. Prices for leavening
power, keeping qualities, purity and
general excellence the foremost bak-
ing powder in all the world" Quite
as quickly as the great Emperor do
the! know the value of a victory that
means worldwide supremacy.

Steve Brodie, b. ].

Steve Brodie, the bridge jumper, al
| though he has risked his life many a
time i'll order to make record, is not
in love with travelling about the country,
because he fears trouble on railways,
and fires ii hotels. And yet he jumped
from the Brooklyn bridge. Travel
nowadays finds the danger reduced to
such a minimum that there need be no
cause for alarm. If you want comfort
and safety, just take ride over the st.
Paul x Duluth Railroad. This road,
known everywhere as the Duluth Short
Line, is always the peoples popular
route to and from st. Paul, Minneapolis,
Duluth, West Superior, Saltwater and
other Northwestern points. Its service
IS always excellent, its trains being
equipped after the modern fashion and
run rapidly at hours convenient to the
tourist and the business man, so that
no time is lost. Always take the Du-
luth Short Line. For maps, circulars,
folders, etc, apply to ticket agents, or
they may be had by writing to W. A.
Russell, st. Paul, MINI.

Some of our hunters who go to the
woods and spend several days blazing
away at the game which they claim Is
so plentiful, but for some reason they
do not get, had better arrange with
