Impressive DediCatOry Services,

one hundred, dressed in regalia,
we're followed. by the members of

MAYOR FAY MAKES VALID DIRECTION
To Published Report That City's Wat
err Supply IS Impure. s \.

e. eA
Under St. Paul date line the Du-
luth News Tribune of Monday gave
space to an article alleging that DR..
H. NJ. Bracken, secretary of the state
board of health, was on his way to
this city to examine the city water
supply, alleging that complaints of
the impurity of the water had been
filed. A synopsis of the article also
later appeared in the Monday edi-
ton of the Evening Herald
These articles caught the eye of
Mayor Fay, who promptly went to
the rescue of the city's reputation
by writing a demand to the Duluth
press for correction of the article
or retraction of same, in the fol-
lowing terms:
"The report in your issue of the
10Th alleging that DR.. H. NJ. Bracken
secretary of the state board of
health, was enroute to Virginia to
inspect the city water supply, is
either fake or the work OF some
one who is envious of the trenen-
dous forward strides being taken
Virginia.
The Virginia supply of water is
the very best, being obtained from a
living spring, flowing from a gravel
bed beneath a heavy strata OF clay.
The Virginia Brewing Co. have To-
Gated their proposed plant here
largely on account of the absolute
purity of the water as shown by
chemical analysis by the state
board. The secretary of the state
board of health was here by invita-
ton of the city authorities, for a
special purpose which will appear
later. Virginia has not had a single
case of typhoid or malarial fever in
the past year.
"Our citizens feel that your article
above referred to is rank Injustice
to the city itself and look to you to
rectify your statement, or counter
act the false impression that may
have been created through the pub
LEGATION thereof"

William is in Jail.

William Grant, president of the
village of Chisholm, was incarcer-
ated in the county Jail at Duluth
Tuesday night in default of $3.50
bail, charged with subordination of
perjury, fraudulently auditing
claims against the village, keeping
gambling device and operating a
tent or resort for persons to visit for
1ewd or immoral purposes.
Williams case against Editor
Talboys, of the Chisholm Herald,
for criminal libel, will therefore
doubtless be postponed for time.

Passed to His Rest,

The Enterprise is this week called
upon to record the death of one of
Virginia's oldest citizens, man
who lived to enjoy the confidence
and respect of all acquaintance,
Peter Byrne, who passed to his rest
at shortly after the noon hour Mon.
day afteran illness of some eighteen
months with consumption.
The deceased was born in Dublin,
Ireland, and was about 81 years of
age. He came to this country in
1890, making his home with the
family of his brothet, John Byrne,
in northern Michigan, and remov-
ing to this city with them in 1892.
For several years after coming to
this city the deceased enjoyed good
health, but during the winter of
1884 contracted a severe cold, lead
ing into consumption. For many
months thereafter the loving fam
lily and friends entertained hopes
that the dread disease might be
counteracted, but during the past
season all hope had fled and for the
past several weeks all realized that
it was but matter of a brief time
ere the soul should be called to it's
maker.
Funeral services were conducted
from the house on Wednesday fore
noon, under the auspices of Vir-
ginia Aerie F. O. +. and -Eveleth
Lodge A. O. H., of both which or
ders the deceased was faithful
and honored member. From the
house the cortege proceeded toOur
Lady of Lourde's church, where
funeral rites were administered by
Rev. Father Hogan, Rev. Father
Floyd of Eveleth, and Rev. Father
WEIGH, Of Duluth, internent being
made in Calvary Cemetery.
The deceased was a young man of
high character and enjoyed the es-
TEEN and respected all, as evidenced
by the fact that the funeral cere-
monies were doubtless the largest
attended obsequies ever held in the
city. The condolences. of many
friends are extended the bereaved
relatives in their hour of sorrow.
