As OTHERS SEE 1T.

On a closing up proposition Vir-
ginia can give all the range towns
"cards and spades" Mayor Thomp-
son, of that city, did not stop with
the saloons, but went after every
business house in the city. 1t will
be remembered that Mr.. Thompson
was elected on closeup" plat
form, and it is passing strange that
it took him four months to make
up his mind to redeem his pledges
and then to over-step all bounds of
reason. From this distance it looks
as though he has grievance, and
rather than being opposed to the
saloon and gambler, he is "wid
em."-Hibbing News.

WBITEWASHED.

During the past several months
range residents have been RECALLED
to finish on the alleged merits of
the Eveleth ball team but since the
effort at an exhibition with second
rate Duluth team on Sunday we
presume the aggregation will have
sense enough to crawl into their
hole and pull the puckering string.
On the strength of the false rep
resentation that good game of
ball was to be witnessed a large
number of our citizens were passen-
gers on the excursion Sunday, join
ing their Eveleth brethren, that the
crowd of rooters be not outdone
should the occasion require their
services. The NJ. w. A. Band was
also an accompanist, and it was a
merry crowd that went to the
slaughter for slaughter it was.
During the nine innings the Eve
leth boys managed to get three
men to first base and one to second,
while their opponents piled up ID
runs in eight innings and are said
to have stopped through sympathy
for their visitors.
AS a result the rooters forgot to
root, the band had no chance to
add to the solemn silence of the
occasion and the betting fraternity
had no opportunity of winning.
The train returned in the early
morning, a hot box-the only really
warm thing of the day-laying them
out for several hours.

"A Hero in Rags" to'a packed house
at the Fay Opera last evening, and
to the utmost satisfaction of all, the
play being strong one and the
characters we'll taken and acted by
the company. Ed Lucas, as the
tramp, displayed some very strong
pathetic talent. Harry Fernandez,
the villain, surely did his part, for
he was hated by the entire audience
at each appearance. Helen K. May
as Mana was earnest in her defense
of her father, and won many friends.
The show on the whole is good, and
the pictures and illustrated songs
exceptionally fine. The company
