fresh proof of the friendship of the French
people, not only because it is necessarily
pleasing to US to have the friendship of a
nation so mighty in war and SO mighty
in peace as France has ever shown herself
to be, but because it is peculiarly pleasant
to feel that, after century and quarter
of Independent existence as a nation, the
French republic should feel that in that
century and quarter We have justified the
sacrifices. France made on our behalf. Gap

''Mr. Ambassador, the American people,
peculiarly because they are the American
people, and because the history of the
United States has been so interviewer with
what Franc has done for us; also because
they are proud of the whole yorld which ac-

progress and civilization-the American
people, through me, extend their thanks to
you and in their name beg to express my
Acknowledgements to the embassy that has
come here and to President Loubet and all
of the French nation, both for the deed and
for the magnanimous spirit that laid be-

you" (Applause.)

Frenchmen and Americans alike.

BLACK MAN IN WOOD PILE
DULUTH COUNCIL SEES THE POINT
No Franchise for Highland Company
Unless 1t Eliminates Its Light
ing Clause.

Duluth, Mimi, April 16.-The applica-
ton of the Highland Canal and Power
company for franchise to enter Duluth
with its power has created great storm.
The company would have found no oppo-
sition If it had asked merely for power
franchise, but it asks that a city lighting
clause be inserted.
There is one private lighting corpora
ton here now, and the board of alder
men was elected on municipal ownership
platforms, with view of one day ac-
curing the lighting plant, and possibly
the street railway company.
Under the circumstances the canal and
power company has not been able to mus
ter a majority of the aldermen to favor
it's proposed franchise, for they would be
voting to add another private lighting
corporation, instead of acquiring the one.
c. c. Cokefair. manager of the canal
and power company, declares, however.
that the company cannot eliminate the
clause relating to lighting. If the fran
chise cannot contain this, he says, the
whole thing fails for the present.

pitchers were changed every other inning,
they had no opportunity to develop bat
