Large Calumet Delegation.

The special train to the races at Han.
cock Saturday was croweed with enthns-
lasts oyer bicycle racing. The work OF
the Calumet boys was very good in the
races they were entered for and they all
made good showing. The easy manner
IN which Boone ran away from the speedy
iron country man in the finish OF the FIVE
mile race showed him clearly the superior
OF Williams, although some OF the latter's
friends think he might have done better il
he had not fallen in the previous race.
There is some talk OF another race be-
tween the two men to take place at Ish

the general mix-up in the mile event, but
took the quarter-mie by a pretty squirt.

SUCCESSFUL.

Another month has passed since DR..
Goldberg & Co. opened their Calumet
branch and their records show tor the
month OF August their business has IN
creased almost 100 per cent. On August
1, their figures showed that since open
ing their office, 4S1 patients consulted
them, of which 191 were discharged as
cured. 179 were taking treatment, 73
were rejected as incurable, while 3S had
left promising to return and take treat
ment, while up to September /, 1880 pa
tients consulted them OF which 397 were
discharged as cured, 900 are still taking
treatment and rapidly improving, 1873
were rejected as incurable while 81 prom
Used to return and take treatment, thus
showing an increase in business of al
most 100 per cent. Shortly after ocat
ing In town they found it necessary to
seek larger quarters, hence they have
leased for term OF years one-half OF thu
upper floor over Cartoons hardware
store. 1t does not surprise those read
ers, who are acquainted: with the DR..
Goldberg institute, to hearI OF the great
success they have met with while In
town, their reputation as specialists is
known all over the country and when
they came herr to locate some time ago
the people at first were inclined to be
skeptical, thinking they would leave as
others had done before them, but they
have demonstrated to the people OF the
copper country, not alone. their determ-
ination OF remaining, but also their abili-
ties as physicians. Their cures since To-
eating here are numerous, and IL the doc
tors were not morally Opposed to pub
fishing names, they could publish.".a list
OF whom they cured that would convince
the most skeptical.
The main institute, which is located at
291 Woodward avenue, Detroit, is the
best equipped in the State md more
cures are made there yearly than any
other institute OF it's kind in the country.
They treat all forms OF chrome, private,

Local Talent Score An
other Success in
Caste. -
The Parts Were Well Taken
And the Expression Given 10 All the
Characters Could Not BE Much
ImprOved-LacOni

Calumet's local talent had another OPP
portunity to display its ability In the
dramatic line last evening, when caste,
a drama in three acts, was presented at
the Opera House for the benefit o. Christ
church. Notwithstanding the inclemency
of the weather there was quite good at
tendance and those who braved the ele-
ments we're more than pleased with the
entertainment.
The different actors in the cast seemed
TO be particularly adapted to their parts,
and everyone did exceptionally well.
Miss Childs, in the leading role as Esther
Eccles, and Mrs. F. n. Bosom, as her
sister Polly, always appear well and last
evening was no exception. Miss Annie
Tourangeau had difficult part, but
acted it in fine shape. Of the other char
acters, John Foley, who took the part OF
the drunkard father OF the two theatre
girls, was good: his makeup was fine and
he acted his part TO perfection. VIII

He is called to India and is supposed to
have been killed, but returns, alive and
well, to his wife and child, who have
been reduced to poverty by the drinking
propensites OF the latters father. Mr.
Lane, who coached the entertainment,
as well az the different members OF the
cast, is to be congratulated on it's entire
success.
A pleasing part was the singing and
dancing by little Frances Harte, who
made decidedly good impression and
was heartily encored,
The entertainment will be repeated this
evening at the Opera House and it is TO
hoped that it will be literally patronized,
as it certainly deserves TO be, both on ac-
count OF the object OF the entertainment
aud the merit OF il.

Consistency.

Lately a poor man stuck up lew
cards in saloon with different amounts
marked on the back. A person paid so
much for the choice OF card and was en-
titled to the amount marked on its back.
1t, no doubt, was quite proper to stop
the game, but was 1t any worse than
betting on the quotations OF the price OF
wheat on the Chicago board trade? which
the village officials allow to be done
openly in another part OF the village,

Visitors From Duluth.

A large party OF business men from the
city at the head Of the great lake paid
the metropolis OF copperdom a visit yes
terday and although the pleasure OF their
visit was interiered with not little by
the inclement weather and the plans for
their entertainment had TO be altered on
that account, the visitors went away with
a feeling that their visit had been adyan-
tageous to them in more ways than one
and with the kindest feeling for Calumet.
The party was composed ofmillers and
iobbers from Duluth who are touring the
peninsula with an idea OF meeting the
local business men and il possible inter-
esting them in their business. The party
was met at Houghton by Supt. Shields
OF the railroad and brought out to Cau-

day was spent in taking in the different
