May Buy q, Chemical Enqiae.

Thos. III. Johnstone, of Crooktsou,
representing the American-La.
France Fire Engine Co., of Elmira,
N. Y, was in the city. on Tuesday
and appeared before the city coun-
Gil at their meeting in the evening
in behalf of his company in an en-
deavor to induce the purchase of a
chemical engine as an addition to
the fire appartus of the city.
The salient points of the machine
we're explained and many features
received the commendation of the
council. With a chemical a small
fire could be- easily extinguished
without turning on the water, while
an engine could make. better, time
in answering alarms from outlying
precincts and could be used in
many instances where water pro-
lection is not obtainable. Especial.
ly true would this be of the resi-.
dence portion embraced in the
Southside Addition, to which por-
tion of the city plat the water
mains have not as,yet been extend.
ed:
The matter will be taken up at a
future meeting of the council and
more thoroughly discussed, and
the purchase is not timprobable.

4 MURDEROUS ASSAULT.
George Conant the Victim of an At
tack by Two Finlanders.

George Conant, railroad man,
was the victim of a dastardly. as
sau1t at the hands of two Finland
ers on Monday evening, receiving
severe knife cut across the face
which will mark him for life and
from which serious results were for
a time feared.
The attack was near the east end
of Chestnut street at shortly after
eleven o'clock. Conant had been to
the Virginia Restaurant for lunch,
and as he came out and started
down the street slipped, partially
falling against one of the men, who
were in no mood to accept of ex-
plantations and showed their intent
of "doing" Mr.. Conant. In the
course of conversation one of them
whipped out a knife and made a
desperate lunge at Conant, carving
him alongside the face and sever
ing the temple artery.
The injured man was at once
picked up and DR.. Grove called,
who cauterized and dressed the
wound, and who reports that the
man is now out of danger.
. The night patrol nailed one of
participants in the melee the same
night and the other was located the
following morning. They gave
their names as Isaac Hill and John
Miskala. Both will be bound over
and will doubtless be given a
lengthy term in which to cool their
ungovernable tempers.

Matt Jacobson, an oId-time resi-.
dent of the city, committed suicide
at an; early hour yesterday morning
by cutting his throat ,witi1,a razor
On the previous afternoon Jacob.
son attempted suicide by drinking
diluted carbolic acid, and watch
was placed over him the early part
of the night. Toward morning, how
ever, he escaped from his home on
Pine street with razor, and his
lifeless body was found with the
throat cut from ear to ear, two hours
later, alongside the D. n. & N. rail-
road track near the east end of Birch
street.
The cause of the deed is assigned
to temporary insanity. He leaves a
wife and family of several children.
Jacobson had been a resident of
the city about twelve years and had
always been known as an industri-
Gus man. He had recently arrang-
ed to enter the saloon business, his
applica ton being filedwith the city
recorder but week since.

Coed News from the Stakespeare.

Virginia stockholders in the
Shakespeare mine, near the Can.
dian 500, rejoice over reports re.
ceived from the property this week.
which looks as thougha the future
of the mine was assured and that
holders of stock were billed to re.
ceive handsome profit in the rise
of value or in dividends if they pre-
fer holding on.
The report is explicit in many
particulars, and claims the stock
should have q value of S. per share
on the showing already made. The
stock was formerly sold at 25 cents
per share, but the prospects of the
property have had the effect of TAX
ing all stock off the market.

4 Carpenter Falls Down Shaft.

Ole Melland, carpenter at the
Zenith mine at Ely, met horrible
death on Friday, losing his balance
while employed on the top of a
shaft house and falling head first
down the shaft, distance of be-
tween one thousand and eleven
hundred feet. When picked up his
remains were found to be terribly
mangled, scarce bone remaining
in his body but what was broken.
He was a single man, and CON-
templated visit to his former
home in Norway shortly to visit
his parents.

Needs lnvestiQatinQ.

Every season comes complaint of
men being shipped to the woods
under contract from Duluth EN-.
ployment agencies, only to find that
no positions await them, and they
are forced to look elsewhere after
paying their money for a job and
their railroad fair from the Zenith
City to the range.
A case OF this kind came to our
attention the past week, when a
blacksmith named Smith came up
on contract from Gilbert & Co. to
20 to- -work-in a. camp of#~the
city; the wages promised being $65
per month and board. Upon. his
arrival at camp Mr.. Smith found
that no job was there for him, and
he alleges that not only did the
foreman refuse to sign a statement
that he had been there in compli.
ance with the terms of the contract
but also refused him a meal. The
man returned to this city on Satur.
urday evening, and on Sunday was
looked after by kind friends to
whom he applied for snstenance, re.
turning to Duluth on Monday, with
the laudable intention of "going
after" the INSCRIPTIONS skunks
who sold him the job, through pro-
cess of law. And every honest man
trusts he may land them right, and
that the lesson may stay with them
forever.
