LE6AL BA TITLE FOR II NINE.
S. Dessau, the New York diamond
has instructed his attor-
neys TO commence action against
y. H.a:-Alworth and others, of Du-
lrth, TO gain his right to a lease
gwen to them three years ago to
8 even forties of land adjoining Hih-
bingat the east and south. The
disputed title covers the land in
which is located the McGregor
mine3and several very promising
prospects. Mr.. Dessau bases his
claim On the fact that he did not
surrender his option for the lease
and was never requested to do so.
Since the option was made to Mr..
Dessau the land, by reason of num-
erous>ore discoveries, has mater
tally increased in value. Mr.. AL
worth and associates claim that the
option was "thrown up" and aban
doned, therefore it is a foregone
conclusion that they will join issue
with Mr.. Dessau, and that a great
legal battle will ensue.-Hibbing

Burned in tbeJalI.
NJ. J. Balm, Of Duluth, the Vic
tim Of Fire In the Eveleth
Lookup.
MISSABE DEPOT BLOWN UP.

The new city of Eveleth comes to
the fore this week as news fur
nisher, the place being torn by two
startling events Monday night, the
city Jail being destroyed by fire
early in the evening, and the D. NJ.
& N. depot was wrecked and blown
to atoms by an overcharge of nitro
glycerine in an attempt to rob the
safe.
The fire which burned the Jail is
of mysterious origin. The building
was two story frame structure and
but one prisoner was confined in it
at the time, and it is supposed that
he set fire to his cell. Despite the
efforts of the fire department the
building burned 50 quickly that it
was impossible to reach the PRISON
er, and his charred remains we're
picked from the debris later. His
features were burned to crisp and
it was with difficulty his identity
discovered. The officer who placed
him under arrest said that he was a
Finlander from the Fayal, and it
was finally found that he was NJ. J.
Balm, a miner. He was a married
man, his wife and family residing
in Duluth.
The destruction of the Missabe
depot was doubtless the work of
burglars. Pieces of the top of the
sale found some distance from the
wrecked depot show that two holes
had been bored in the top, and it is
supposed put such an overcharge
of nitro in that the building was
practically reduced to splinters.
The depot is in the vale near the
Spruce Office, and the explosion was
terrific, windows being broken by
the conclusion for blocks away.
Fire started in the wreckage, but
the department was quickly on the
scene and the flames extinguished.
It is said there was, considerable
money in the safe at the time, and
considerable amount of coin and
paper was picked up on property
adjoining the wreck the following
day. No clue to the probable per-
petrators has been found.

AMUSE MENTS.
"At Valley Forge"

AT Valley Forge a Colonial drama in
four acts, attracted fair-sized crowd
at the Opera house, Saturday evening
This play is a story of a love affair be
tween two rival sutors-a captain in the
Continental army and major in King
Georges army, during the period of the
American Revolution. 1t opens with a
scene in a mansion near Philadelphia on
an afternoon in November, III. Wilfred
Fairfax, the Continental captain, is the
avowed lover of Miss Virginia Preston a
daughter of a Tory colonel in King
Georges army, as is also Lord Henry
Charlton of the Kings forces. Lord
Charlton is Miss Preston's sutton by her
fathers choice, but Capt. Fairfax is her
ideal lover.
Each act gradually unfolds periods of
desperate situations in which the life of
Captain Fairfax, several times a prisoner
in Lord Charlton's hands, seems certain,
as the latter had sworn to win by means.
fair or foul. But by the Intervention of
Providence all of Lord Charlton's plots
were frustrated and Captain Fairfax is
hailed the rightful sutton.
The play is an immensely exciting one
and was ably presented keeping the
crowd continually on nerve. The lovers
parts were finely rendered, particularly
that of Mr.. Nickerson, as Captain Fair
fax, who won much admiration by his
force Of character and brilliant display of
bravery. Miss Josephine Foy as Miss
Preston was also very effective, and the
whole company is deserving of credit fer
its performance.

1t was in Boston, while taking pri-
Vate lessons, that some of the local

lessor and it was on account of the
iriends he made that he happened 20

exhibitions while in the city, only con-
sldering his visit a vacation. but lie
was prevailed upon to don the SWORD

fence with him learned that it was i'm
possible for them to hit him and that
