Miss Fallon has matured very much since she first went abroad. She was always a beauti- full girl. but her beauty now is of the type that any stage beauty would envy. She is too girlish looking yet to seem theatrical, but the other afternoon in her smart street toilette ana furs she had the fine air that professional singers always seem to acquire-the beautiful boise and the distinguished appearance.

went to the Holland House with as fine an assortment as he could gather from the stock. The Duke and Duchess were ready to receive him.
 The Duchess selected three necklaces, the finest pearls in the outfit The bill for them was s695. It was said that the necklaces were chosen at that time be- cause the Duchess was anxious to have her picture taken few days later.
 When the bill was presented by the Frederic Company the Duke in some way overlooked it. Then he sailed for Eng land with his wife. Everybody who saw the Duchess wonderful necklaces mar yelled at their beauty and wondered how the Dukes supposed slim purse would permit of such extravagances. Time and again the Frederic Company wrote the Duke, asking for remittance. He ig- nored every letter. It was then decided to sue the Duke for the full amount.

for plastering throughout the building,
putting In the necessary windows, the
strengthening OF the building supports
and the arrangement OF rooms and

them the building Of a new building,
the rental OF four rooms and the pur-
chase OF several buildings. The board
was unanimous I'm declaring for a new
high school building Co take the place
OF the present building, which will
not last over four years, at the outset.
The board was unanimous also i'm de-
clarlng for the most economical way
Of getting along until q new school
building could be erected but divided
upon the different proposals, the ma
iority favoring the Iron building be-
cause they figured there would be
more money TO come back from the
sale OF IL when IL would be needed no
longer for school purposes.

Game Of Base Ball 20 BE Played the First Day
Of the TournA Ament.

The Hurontown and Houghton peo-
pie have base ball club that they
think can skin Crystal Falls, tigurative.
Nv speaking, and they propose putting
their suppositions into effect the first
day Of the tournament by getting out
the scalping knives that copper
country braves are credited with car
rying and divesting the iron ore be-
grlmed natives OF their cuticle. The
Falls boys are getting rounded into
form and will fight hard for their lives.
There has been much discussion over
'IeN base ball game and the matter
was only settled yesterday when
Houghton was picked as the team
that ought to play. This was done
principally that the copper country
might get some OF the favors that the
Crystal Falls people have t9 pass out.
We have hired the lshpcming
orchestra and chlppcd IN little to
help pay the expenses ps the Soc
band and as the copper country is Civ
ING us a good boost the ball game went
