The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1899-05-14

most charming periods in the cycle of the
seasons. The bright, fresh green of the
budding trees and shrubbery, the deep
blue OF heaven tinging its beautiful eX-
panSe of water, the occasional sail or
! row boat dotting its surface here and
there, have combined to produce a scene
of beauty which makes the early arrivals
; at the lake rejoice that they did not miss
the week there which has just passed
away.
1t has been most gratifying to receive
so many compliments on all sides for the
enterprise shown by the G b In CIV
ing White Bear its due prominence in its
news columns. Several persons TO whom
we had occasion to mention some live
news item, which had appeared in last
Sundays issue, expressed regret that they
had not heard the news, adding: You
know we take the Pony Press, so we
hadn't heard anything about 1t
In an epoch which witnesses 50 many
separated families and wrecked homes
scattered along the path of life. 1t is eX-
tremely creditable to White Bear to see
so general tendency here to secure per-
manent homes in preference to rented
premises. This feature has been specially
marked on what is known as the West
side, across the railroad track, during
the last few weeks.
Ed. Salisbury, whose family spent such
delightful winter in Portland Or, has
I JnSlT purchasing
the TatrO property on Third street, on the
west side, across the railroad. They took
possession during the past week, and
r when their contemplated improvements
are completed, it will be one of the
contest homes in White Bear.
Almost directly opposite to the Sails
burys, John Gilmore, who is in the en-
ploy of the st. Paul e Duluth railroad
has purchased the premises occupied for
merly by George Seehutter.
Still further on, the Collette property,
on Bald Eagle avenue, nearly opposite
the Catholic church, has been purchased
( by Mr. Reid, the tailor, of st. Paul, who
proposes to reside there, at least a por-
ton of each year.
Charley Morgan has caught the fever,
and Is looking for a desirable location on
the West side, with a view to purchasing
over there. As this district already boats
of the presence within its limits Of the
handsome Washington school building
the Catholic church. the Campbell resi-
dence, and other attractions. the saloon
always excepted, the East side will have
to beStir itself and look to its laurels lest
fhey be suddenly wrested from It's grasp.
The local court of the c. o. F. have
talked somewhat of locating permanently
on the West side, but they have not vet
seen any inducement sufficiently strong to
/ turn the scales to the affirmative side of
the proposition.
AS an offset to all this the East side
points smilingly to its own little list of
real estate deals.
Conductor John Tracey has purchased
the property once occupied by Ole Nell
son, on Fifth street, near the Webster
school. He and his wife moved into their
new home during the week. and il was
presto, change! Under Mrs. Tracey's dcft
fingers carpets, window curtains and
pretty decorations had appeared as If
by magic; and now Jack and his wife,
look as snug and coy as two young
turtles doves.
Thee Wheelock premises, on Manltou
island, have been purchased by Mr.. c. p
Noyes, of ST. Paul, who, it is expected,
will HaoveSoat there for The SUMMER. -
