One of the largest and finest audi
ences that has ever assembled in
this city. was present to witness the
performance of the opera 1.-The
Pirates of Penzance," by local anna
teurs, at the Gross opera house Fri
day evening. Every seat in the house
was occupied, and everyone was
highly pleased and entertained by
the performance. Every character
in the cast was cleverly interpreted
and the costumes were appropriate
and effective. Considering that there
were q great number of those taking
part who had never before partici-
pated in any amateur performance,
and that the opera was put on in
only three weeks time, the perform
ance was far above what might be
expected, and was Il credit to the
management, those particiDa ting,
and to Instructor z. l.. Weston.
Mr.. Weston showed conclusively
that he was not only a singer and an
actor Of good abilities, but us an
instructor he was thorough, and
entitled to great praise for the ex
cellent performance of every meln-
Der of the company.

NEW SAW MILL.
Charles Gravel Will Put in One
On Platte River, On the Old
Site at Cravelville.

Charles Gravel came in from his
Platte river drive, which Is now Id
Rice lake. Tuesday evening, and in a
conversat ton later about logs
and lumber, gave out some Of his
plans for his future operations.
Mr.. Gravel has been in the logging
business for number of years, and
has come to the conclusion that
there is not much money In hauling
logs and selling them to the mill
owners. As he wishes to still con-
time in the lumber business. he has
decided to build a saw mill of his
own, and will erect it on the site OF
the old saw mill formerly owned and
operated by Gravel & Goulet. Oh
the Platte river,'ar Gravelville..
Mr.. Gravel figures a new saw mill
at that place ought to he operated
by him at a profit, for several
reasons. 1t is in the center, OF a
large, prosperous and growing
farming community. and large
part of the product Of the mill will
be sold in that vicinity without ship
ping. Another advantage to Mr..
Gravel is that us he owns and Oper-
ates the Morrison county flour mills.
also located at that place. which
can be run only part Of the season
with water power, the slab wood
" hich would come from the saw
mill would run the flour mill the re.
mainder of the season with almost
no expense, where it now costs him
nearly 81 900 year for cord wood.
Even should he be compelled to
market a percentage of his lumber
ut this place. hecan dosO to advant-
age and can compete with other
mills. The Platte is ordinarily an
easy stream to drive as far as the
mill, and his logs will cost him less
at the mill than they can be pur-
chased for at Mississippi points: He
can haul the sawed lumber to this
place as cheap as it can be driven
from Gravelville to the Mississippi
by the river.
For this season Mr.. Gravel will
only put in a small portable mill and
saw between 100000 and 100000 feet.
The power for this season will be
furnished by the engine of the flour
mill, which Ia now running by water
power.
Next year, however, be will put
in a mill with a capacity Of about
4O, 900 feet per day, and will saw sew
eral million feet. Il
The deal by which Mr.. Gravel Sc
cures his mill is now almost closed
and he expects to go to Minneapolis
in a few days to complete it. The
deal includes u complete rotary saw
mill, shingle and lath mill and engine
and boilers. all Of which have been
in operation and are now in run
ming order. This Mr.. Gravel intends
to remove to Gravelville and have it
ready for operation the beginning OF
the saving season next year.
This is not an experiment with
Mr.. Gravel, for he has had a number
OF years experience IN the saw mill
and lumber business at the place
where lie now intends to build. He
is hustler and Will, without doubt,
demonstrate that his plans for the
profitable operation of h saw.mill at
that point are feasible.

MUSTN'T SELL LIQUOR.
Bill to Prevent Its Sale In the National
Capitol Favorably Reported.


Capitol Favorably Reported.
The house committee on public bnild-
ings and grounds has made favorable re-
port on the bill introduced by Mr.. Little,
providing that it shall be unlawful for any
one to sell, dispense or otherwise dispose
of Intoxicating liquors of any kind, or any
compound or preparation thereof, either in
the capitol building or upon any part of
the public grounds upon which the build
ing is situated. A penalty of $500 fine is
provided for violations Of this provision,
and the courts Of the District of Columbia
exercising criminal jurisdiction are given
Jurisdiction over this matter.
The report Of the committee, which was
drawn by MI. Morse Of Massachusetts,,
says that the sale Of Intoxicating drinks in
tho restaurants of the national capitol is
unseemly, unsuitable and gives ofense to
a large and respectable number Of citizens
of the United States, being just cause Of
public scandal. The traffic, therefore,
should be entirely Notwithstanding

MARIE AT DULUTH.
The Foolish Policy of Sending
Her to Fergus Falls is
Followed. r

1t has been demonstrated that the
Fergus Falls insane asylum authori-
ties will not keep Marie Kicks, the
window smasher, and sending her
there is useless. Little Falls sent her
there once, and she was very soon
back here breaking windows. The
last time she was here she was given
q 30 days sentencein the county Jail,
on rather slim fare, and it entirely
cured her glass breaking proclivities
as far as this city is concerned. Con-
corning her recent visit to Duluth
the Evening Herald of Tuesday says:
"Mrs. Kicks, the window smasher,'
who has been staying at the Wom-
ans home for several weeks, became
so unruly last evening that the ma
iron was forced to turn her over to
the police. Poor Com missioner Cook
took her in charge today and she
will be returned to the asylum at
Fergus Falls, from which she has
been, absent on furlOugh.
Mrs. Kicks is somewhat noted on
account of her penchant for breaking
windows, her insane desire to engage
in that amusement rendering her
liable 1T any moment to smash all
the lights within her reach. Since
her release from the asylum on pa
role about a month ago she has been
allowed to stay at the WOman's
nome, but Of late another attack of
acute mania has manifested it's ap-
pearance in sullen fits, intersLersed
with threats Of violence to those
about her. Yesterday she strobe
around with pair Of shears in her
belt, and announced her intention OF
cutting up several people who had
fallen under her displeasure.
