ical ills which vanish before proper Of
eorts-gentle efforts pleasant efforts

ne knowledge that SO many forms Of
.ickness are not due to any actual dis.
ase, but simply to q constipated condi-
Mon of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
II removes. That is why it is the only
;emedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness, without facilitating the
organs on which it acts tits therefore

acial effects, to note when you pur-
chase, thatyou have the genuine article,
which is manufactured by the California
Fig Syrup Co. only, and sold by all rep

If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, then laxa-
sives or other remedies are not needed.

Another Damage suit.

Owing to severe injury sustained
the Sth of May, Mrs. NJ. +. Robe has
not been able to attend to her family
duties since. The severe wind storm
about that time tore up the sidewalk
boards near her house, on Second street,
and in returning home from town she
slipped on one Of the loose planks and
hurt the same ankle which was injured
in similar manner some months ago,
ana from which she has suffered all
winter. 1t would seem about as eco
nomical to keep our sidewalks IN re-
pair as to pay damage judgments, and
in this case there is no doubt that Mrs.
Robbie would win in a suit against the
city. This place should be repaired at
once. as it Is very dangerous for blcv-
cIists, as well as pedestrians, as they
would he thrown into the creek and
probably killed before they could pos
siblv dismount to save themselves.

tory, 1873; travel, 122; biography, s.:
literature and poetry, III; art, science
and philosophy, 1872; miscellany, 35.
This makes a total Of / ,lG2, the number
of books read during the month The
warm weather shows that it has com
menced to effect people as this amount
represents considerable reduction
under the number of books read re-
spcctively. The number, however,
represents good increase over May
last year, when there were only 1886
books read in all
The number of books delivered to the
different stations during the month was

III; station c, PSI; station ID, lG.

Bicyclists Meet

The Bicycle Club held a meeting
Wednesday evening and heard the re-
ports of several committees. One of
the most important questions was that
Ofthe condition of the streets. Since
the ordinance governing bicycilsts Is
being rigidly enforced the wheelmen
are disposed TO make Il "kick" on the
condition in which the avenues and
streets are kept. Some of the gentle
men grew quite eloquent in speaking
on the subject. Complaint is made that
the street car company is in the habit
of leaving piles of gravel. dirt, paving
blocks, and various other distractions
scattered around over the streets in
violation of city ordinances, hereby
subjccting the riders to great annoy
ance as we'll as danger to their wheels,
limbs and even lie in some cases. The
club proposes to get after the council
and board of public works and if posi-
ole secure better care Of the bvwavs.
The committee on club quarters was
instructed to negotiate for the rental
of rooms on the first floor of the Breu-
ing block for the club quarters.

Hereafter the bicycle will not he such
popular idol, and | have no doubt
that for long time to come it will have

not merely an instrument of pleasure
1t has great practical advantages and
uses which will give it place among
the means of locomotion until some
thing better takes its place. 1t has al
ready been of vast benefit, and par
ticuiarly to women; it mas been, /
think, the strongest impetus of any sex
toward athletics in general. 1t has al
ready broken down the narrow preiu-
dices against women engaged IN So
called mannish sports and occupations,
most of which are just as suitable for
women as for men, and it has been

the part of woman. | 10 not mean by
this that it has led to the adoption of
the bloomer costume, which is not be-

last year. but clothing Is 10 ser and
more sensible now. Altogether, l
think that We women owe a great debt

lar lecture on the above topic at the
West Sixth street Presbyterian church
tonight, Friday, and he should be
greeted by a full house. Rev. lift is

some weeks ago, and | regard him as
one of the finest lecturers in the coun-
try, and that lecture as one of the finest

New Murder Mysteries.

Whether or not the world is growing
better, the fact remains that nearly
every month brings its fresh and bafil-
ing murder mystery. Corpses turn up
in boxes, trunks, cellers, rivers, wells
and elsewhere, and too often the old
saying dead men tell no tales" is
borne out fully. But, however, that
may be, every live man will tell you
that if YOU are travelling between st.
Paul, Minneapolis, Duluth, West Supe-
rior, Saltwater, Taylor's Falls and
other Northwestern points OF import
ance and interest--bccause they know
what they are talking about-that the

towns backed by fertile farm country or

These are the elements Of the Duluth

which have long been sustained. Al

Suddenly Taken Away.

Miss Georgana daughter ofex-regi-ter
of deeds, ID. Geo. Morrison, died sud
denly Saturday morning. Although she
has been very delicate for along time,
her death was sudden and unexpected
as she had been much better for several
weeks past. As she was dressing for
breakfast she was suddenly attacked
by hemOrrage of the lungs, and she ex-
pred before her father could reach her
from the room below. Miss Morrison
has been a patient sufferer, about two
and a half years ago Just after getting
comfortably settled with her father and
brothers and sisters in their nice home
on Fourth street she was attacked with
grip, from which she never recovered,
and ABOUT the same time Her eyesiSht
began to fail and she has been totally
blind ever since, thus making her in
validlsm all the harder. Miss Morrison
was about n years of age, and her
funeral was held from the Catholic
church Tuesday morning at 8 O'Clock
after which the remains were taken to
the Point for interment

Superior is likely to have an other
council investigation, The charges
made by Aid. Douglas to the effect that
Mr.. Bennett, agent for the Revere
Rubber Co, had brlbed, or tried to
bride certain aldermen in order to Sc
cure the contract for an amount of
hose, are to be thoroughly investigated
by the company, who claim that the
whole affair arises from jealousy and
from personal enemies Of Mr.. Bennett.
The law firm of CrOwnhart, Owen &
Foley have been retained to defend the
