Pursued by Lightning.

They say lightning never strikes
twice in the same place. It may
not, but it comes very near it some
times, as Colonel Outright Of At,
lanta will agree. During a passing
storm in the summer of 1892 the
colonel took refuge under a poplar
tree. Upon a bolt of lightning shiv-
ering a tree in the same row he ran
into a house near by. While there
another bolt struck a part of the
house, stunning everybody in it.
An hour later another storm came
up while the colonel was riding
home in wagon. AS he passed
along<a group of trees one was struck
by lightning, about 500 pounds Of
wood splinters falling into the colo
nel's wagon. Arrived, at home, he
had barely entered when a terrible
flash unroofed the whole building.
Beat these lightning condolences if
you canl-Pittsburg Dispatch.

Lemons Inhumanity.

While the investigation of
the charges of brutality against
Deputy Warden Lemon is only
three days under way, the evil
dence against him is sufficient
to ostracize him from the assoc
citation of decent men, and if
Justice were done condemn him
to penal servitude for the re-
mainder Of his accursed days.
Broken bones, cut heads,
bruised bodies and all manner
of torture are among the every
day occurrences inflicted by
this tyrant who reigns supreme
over the unfortunate men who
err and are sent to that hell
hole at Saltwater for reforna-
ton. We shall wait patiently
to see what disposition the
commission will make of this
fiend incarnate. He is no bet
ter than a third grade murderer
in the eyes of decent people.

House Heating In Russia.

The art of heating houses is re-
duced to the finest point in Russia
At the end of October every window
in dwelling is sealed with putty
and not opened again until spring,
and there is only one aperture left
by which every day for few min.
utes some fresh air is let in. The
stoves are of porcelain, and an arm
full of wood is put into them in the
morning, which proves sufficient to
give out great heat for "a hours.

large number Of taxpayers and
enterprising and worthy citl-
zens, the commissioners, two
years ago, voted to aid the Fair
association in erecting build
ings, preparing the grounds,
etc., for holding the fair; an en-
terprise which was for the wei
fare and benefit of the county.
Lumber bills, etc., were al
lowed to go through as bills
against the county instead OF
giving the money TO the officers
of the association for distribu-
ton as they might happen to
see fit.
The last grand jury found in
dictments against the five
members, three of whom are
no longer members. They were
all arraigned on Monday and
entered pleas of not guilty.
The county attorney prose-
cuted and J. L. Washburn and
John G. Williams appeared for
the defendants. The trial took
about two days and the jury
after being out less than two
hours returned a verdict of not
guilty.
It seems to be the opinion of
all air-minded men that the
verdict is a just one and it is to
be hoped that the county will
be spared the expense of any
further efforts to convict coun-
ty officers unless there is much
better grounds for assuming
them guilty than there was in
this case. II

Messrs. Downey and Walker
concluded their canvass of Du-
luth and vicinity in behalf Of
the Spring Valley miners and
left for home Thursday. They
found Duluth workingmen en-
joying such great gobs of
"sound money prosperity" that
their collections were not over
generous in quantity. Still 1,
considering the prevailing lack
of work, enough was contrib
uted to show that our inten-
tons were of the best. !
The Building Trades Council
has decided in favor of admit
ting reporters to it's sessions.
This is a wise move. No union
has anything to fear from TAX
ing the public legitimately into
it's confidence. The reporters
in Duluth have always shown
themselves, to be gentleme n
and capable Of returning cour-
tesy, for courtesy. Nine times
out of ten false reports come
from some spleeny fellow with
grudge who is able to impose
on the newspapers only be-
cause the latters' representa-
tives are denied legitimate in
formation.
That unionism is on the in
crease in Duluth is evidenced
by the business firms who use
their utmost efforts to cater to
the wishes of the union people.
With very few exceptions the
merchants carry union made
goods, and those who do not
will soon be compelled to or
get none of the trade of the
great army of toilers who both
earn and spend their money in
this city. The firms that han
die union goods are entitled to
all the trade and no man. is
true to himself or his cause
who will spend a dollar with
any merchant who does not
handle union goods.

The Walters union will give
it's third annual ball at Odd
Fellows hall, Thanksgiving
night. Elaborate preparations
are under way and while the
task undertaken, that of eclips-
ing their previous record in
this line, is a large one; no.
body acquainted with the
hustlers who are running
things has any doubt of their
success.
The Commercial club is
making vigorous protest
against the reduction in street
car accommodations for Cen
trail and West Duluth. Reso-
lutions, were passed at Wednes-
day evenings meeting demand
ing a ten-minute service or
better, and Messrs. Allen, Hub
bard, Dowlie, Armstrong and
Wetmore were named as a
committee to emphasize their
desires.
The West Duluth Saw Mill
Workers held their last regular
meeting for this season at Odd
Fellows hall, West Duluth,
last Sunday. There was little
business on hand, the principle
item of interest being the re-
ports of the officers for the past
season. In this connection
members of the union desire to
correct an impression that the
organization intends to 60 out
of existence. During the win
ter months thf mills close
down and the men, who, find
employment therein through
out the summer, scatter to find
employment elsewhere, most
of them going to the logging
camps. The organization still
exists, but it's next regular
meeting will not be held until
some time in April next.
Some of the delegates to the
Trades Assembly are in favor of
putting on record the candi-
dates for various Offices at the
coming municipal election.
This is a conservative measure
that ought not to arouse any
opposition, although it is such
a mild proposition that none of
the radicals can be expected to
waste much time over it. One
thing much needed in Duluth
is municipal program that is
both practical and just. Time
might be wasted more fool
ishly, at any rate, than in an
attempt to formulate such a
platform. Reform ideas are
prevalent enough; the trouble
is that nobody seems able to
crystalline them into a work
ing program. Organized labor
in this city has brains enough

An Odd Proceeding In Court Has a Worry
Unexpected Sequel.

An Odd Proceeding In Court Has a Worry
Unexpected Sequel.
There was very amusing scene in JUS
tice of the Peace Barry's court last week,
which has had a resulting sequel not any
less peculiar. Joseph Holler sued Fer
dinand HirSch and E. E. Hicks to recover
a gas engine. The engine was sent to
Hirsch to repair. and he claimed that for
the repairs the sum OF $205 was due him.
The testimony brought Hicks, who is a
physician, INTO the case. His connection
with it is not part of the story. The
principal witness was Hirsch, who is
deaf. 1t was during the taking of his tes-
timony that one of the most unusual cpl
lawyers in the room, and each took turn
shouting in one ear or the other of Hirsch,
according as they thought they had dis
covered his soft" ear. The effect must
have been somewhat astounding. Finally
the effprts of the two lawyers were CEN
tered on one ear.
One lawyer shouted questions into this
ear and the other lawyer stood a foot dis
tant and yelled in stentorian tones: ~
object 1 object!"
Apparently the objections might just as
well have been shouted at the feeIs of the
powers off Canea, for Hirsch did not hear
81 while one lawyer yelled the other
shook his fist TO indicate his objections
The outcome of this odd trial was that
Judgment was given by Justice Barry for
the plaintiff. Since this it appears that
Hirsch has demolished the engin- which
was the basis of the suit. When viewed
by the plaintiff 1t was q mass of frag-
ments.
