NeigbboriDg Notes.

Eveleth will have skating rink
for the winter, formally opened yes
terday under the management of J.
u. Sheridan.
The Ironwood News Record en-
joys the effects of an error on the
part of the devil, who mistook can
of gasoline for can of kerosene
and using the latter with which to
start fire. An immediate response
by the fire department extinguish-
ed the blaze with but slight dam
age.
The ten year old son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Gustaf Neuman, of Ely, was
drowned by breaking through the
ice while skating.
Ely will shortly enjoy the conven-
fence of telephone system.
Thomas Isaacson, laborer at the
Hale mine, Biwabik, died Saturday
from the effects of a fall, having
fallen down the timber shaft some
days previously, striking on bis
head.
The Biwabik mine has ceased sea-
son shipments, and is practically
closed. No stripping will be done
at the mine this winter, and it is
not anticipated that many men will
be employed in the mines in the
Biwabik district during the winter
months.
The Auburn mine has ceased sea-
son shipments. Practically the same
force will be retained at the. prop
erty throughout the winter months,
stockpiling and developing. The
Drake & Stratton Co. will also con-
tinue on their stripping contract at
this mine as late as weather condi-
tons may permit.
It is expected that this week will
see final season shipments to the
Two Harbors docks.
The Duluth High School foot ball
team finally, at the last moment, at
tempted to arrange Thanksgiving
game with the Virginia High, but
evidently did not desire an accept
ance, if one may judge from the
nervy proposition forwarded Coach
Deering. 1t was an agreement for
a game provided the Virginia boys
would pay their own expenses and
trust to split of all receipts over
one hundred dollars to play even.
The Duluth football boys have evil
IDENTIFY imbibed some of the "porky"
qualifications of the Duluth politi-
clan.
Walter S. Douglas, proprietor of
Douglas Ely Lake Resort, was on
Friday last sentenced by Judge En-
sign to thirty days and $50 fine for
selling liquor without license. He
had a government license, and stat
ed to the court that he supposed
that was sufficient. Mr.. Douglas
should make arrangements for rum
ming a "Club" another season.
Two Harbors again bobs into dis
tinction as a microbe center, two
cases of smallpox being found in
the village last week.

PROPOSES CONSTITUTIONAL AMEND
MENT

PROPOSES CONSTITUTIONAL AMEND
MENT.
State Auditor Dunn, while in Du-
luth the other day delivered a chap
ter on state royalties, expressing
belief that the present royalty rate
of % cents per ton was fair and
equitable, and favored the taking
of vigorous steps to amend the con-
stitution so as to place the mini
mum royalty at that amount.
"The present royalty of Is cents
ton," says Mr.. Dunn, "as fixed by the
statute, can be changed by any
state Legislature. The royalty is
very fair at present and reduction
to 10 or 20 cents ton would deprive
the state of a great deal of money.
But if a constitutional amendment
is made, the Legislature will have
no power to give away such priv
leges and the school and other state
funds will be sure of their lust
share of the profits of mining the
ores found on state lands"
The suggestion of the state audi
tor meets with approval, with the
exception that the royalty should
be placed at % cents per ton, with
out mention of maximum or mini
mum amount, thus ,voiding any
possible loop-hole where the gran
ger element of future legislatures
may make a grand-stand play to
raise the stipulated royalty.

7. W. Q A. Outing Party.

delightful ten days outing, coming
to it's conclusion yesterday, has been en-
joyed by the young ladies of the Y. w.
c. A., the beautiful peninsula residence
of Mrs. Walter Frear at Pearl City, being
thrown open to the members of the asso-
citation. Mrs. Brown and her family of
young ladies report a most delightful
time, large number having enjoyed the
hospitality of Mrs. Frear. Those who
could not leave their duties in the city for
a longer time arranged to go down to the
peninsula at their convenience and re-
main a day or so at a time Among the
guests were Miss Thora Oss, Miss Sigrid
Oss, Miss Lena Pflkington, Miss Minnie
Simonds. Miss Lizzie Dickson, Miss TIRE
Dickson, Miss A. Alice Allen, Miss Kath-
crime Mccarthy. Miss Edith Perkins, Miss
Anna Moore, Miss Helen Keany, Miss
wilkins, Miss Park and Mrs. H. C.
Brown. A delightful feature Of the out
ing, aside from the Inequalities of Mrs.
Frear, were two moonlight launch excur-
sions about the harbor. Acting Governor
Cooper, having heard of the party at the
peninsula, invited them to enjoy the
pleasures of yachting, placing his own
yacht at their service.

SAILORS AS WITNESSES.
The Sensible View of Rev. DR.. s. e
Bishops Monthly.

Our new Federal Judge Estee is, no
sires to execute justice. Yet much indiS-
nation has been expressed against Judge
Estee, and his Prosecuting Attorney
Baird. for their ignominious discharge
of a jury on account of their acquittal of
Captain Sodergren on a charge of abuse
of sailors, in the face of much testimony
of sailors against him. The jury included
several well-known and highly esteemed
citizens. They simply did not believe
that the sailors were trying to tell the
truth. These gentlemen undoubtedly
knew a great deal more about sailors
than did the judge or his attorney.
On the other hand, in the cases of
Chinese claiming to have been born here,
Judge Estee exhibits remarkable dis
trust of Chinese testimony. He is very
likely justified in this. He is probably
much better acquainted with Chinese as
witnesses than he Is with sailors. We
personally had some acquaintance with
satlor-men forty years ago, and believe
that they are now more largely composed
of the lower classes of Europeans than
they were then. We are certain that
their testimony against officers Is to be
received with much distrust. Judge Es-
tee will do well to exercise the same eau
ton in dealing with such witnesses as
with Chinese, or he Will needlessly dis
tress well-meaning ship-masters and
officers and hamper commerce Injurious
ly. The sailor is sadly in need Of great
er protection, both on land and at sea.
But his own reckless character renders
his protection difficult. Courts need
great sagacity in dealing with him.

the attacks being prepared at Cucuta.
This request accounts for Tribes hur-
ried departure for Venezuela The Ven
ezUelan government, to avoid trouble,
has claimed that General CelestinO Cas-
trO, brother Of the president, led the
troops in these battles. Raul Parez,
secretary of the liberal diplomatic
agency, said yesterday:
THE Colombian and Venezuelan cler-
icaIs organized an invasion against the
liberal Venezuelan government, and on
the other side the Venezuelan and Co
Iombian liberals prepared themselves to
meet the invaders at the frontier Cen
eral Uribe-Uri is at the head of the
Colombian element of that army. Most
likely he was the commanding general
who obtained the two victories Of SJly
% and Aug. 3.
Venezuela has no reason to declare
war against COlOmb ia. because the
clerical invasion has been completely
defeated, and before two months elapse
the liberal party viii be in power IN Co
Iombia. On the other hand, the clerical
government of Colombia is not IN po-
sition to declare war against Nene-
