mysterious strangers from Min neapolis
had arrived with the express purpose. Of
buying up all the mere antable pine ia

the land buyers faded away on one of

Cook county that there lis l 100000 600

that if any set Of men desired TO corner

have to be in possession Of much money,

Minneapolis men began seeking prices
and options yesterday from Duluth own

they were buying for themselves or 9th
ers, but it leaked out that they we're
merely seeking options on speculation,
with view of first getting control of
the property and finding the customer
later. While this was perfectly leglr-
innate proposition, it was not calculated
to inspire the pine owners with much
confidence in the proposition, and they
refused to give options. The strangers
secured few small ores during the day
but when the word reached the big
no. ders that they we're seeking to con-
troll all the pine in Cook county for nine

Work, Morals and Happiness.

Esperance GoodIove, who is writing a
series of thoughtful articles on the per.
sonal phases of a business woman's life.
in the New Idea Womuns Magazine,
and turning up fresh idea or two IN
each number, says, in the March issue,
that the business woman belongs to the
middle class, and that ''fer morals are
likely to be those of her class. It
is generally admitted the world oyer,'
she continues, "that a reasonable
amount of reasonably congenia] work
tends to produce healthy mental, NOR
al and physical development. The mid
die class has just this reasonable a.
mount. The class above has it not"
1t is to be assumed that the writer con-
siders that the moral condition of the
class below is also threatened, but by
excess rather than by the lack of work
5Supposlng, then, that right moral
equilibrium is the thing desirable above
all others. the thing that more than
anything else tends to give happiness to
the human race, it would appear that in
stead OF. the social aspirations of the
working class tending toward the leisur-
ed class; 1.-The reverse should be the case,
and the social aspirations of both the
highest and the lowest classes should
converge toward those people of moder-
ate incomes who 1--we good and happy

HOW TO BE REVENGED:
Or the Story of Mrs. Kelly's Red Ba-
,.> s. BY Sled. ~ -.


The above is the appropriate title sug-
gested by an interested observer for a
case IN Justice Bankers court last even.
ing, the final chapter of which will be en-
acted in Judge Durfee's court next
Saturday. 1t was case in which Attor-
ney THUS was. arrested upon charge
of petty larceny preferred against him
by Mrs. Sarah Kelly. Briefly stated,
the facts alleged to constitute the offense
were that the said Titus "did felonious-
ly, wrongfully and unlawfnlly, and for
the purpose of approp rating the same
to his own use and benefit, take and car
ny away baby sled, painted red, be-
longing to the said Sarah Kelly, the
same being worth $780,.
The case came up for hearing before
Judge Banker at O'clock last evening.
Upon an affidavit of prejudice filed by
the defendant it was transferred to
Justice Durfee's> court and further
proceedings postponed until 8 o'clock
this morning. County Attorney Nc
Alpine, who appeared this morning for
the prosecution, asked for an adjourn.
ment of one week, which was granted.
Mrs Kelly claims the sled by right OF
purchase from Mrs. Bean. Mr.. Titus,
of course, admits taking the same and
for his own use and benefit, but denies
that there was anything felonious.
wrongful or unlawful about his so dong,
because the sled belongs to him. 1t ap-
pears that the sled was loaned to Mr..
Sturgis and was not returned by her.
When she moved away she left the sled
in ,the house, afterwards occupied ty
Mrs. Bean, and Mrs. Kelly claims to
have purchased it from her. Mr. Titus
claims to have requested the return OF
the sled, which request was treated 50
contemptuously that he promised him.
self to take possession at the first op-
portunity. This opportunity came yes
terday, when he round it standing il
front of Johnson's store and, fulfilling
his promise, he took it nome.
A very amusing Incident was the ef-
fort of Samuel Bally to escape service
of Il sub. oena to appear as witness in
he case, because, while ignorant Of the
status of affairs he had told Mrs. Kelly
that he just saw Mr. Titus around the
corner with sled. Seeing Marshal
Moukcr approaching with an expression
If official seriousness: and divining his
purpose Mr.. Bal|y moved off in the op-
pOsite direction. Instantly the race
was or, and while these two heavy
weights ran hlther and th1ther, through
winding ways, lodging around dry goods
boxes, highly piled counters. etc., by
ISLANDERS looked on with open mouthed
establishment, wondering what was up.
Mr.. .Baly led his pursuer merry chase
but the marshal had the advantage of
being able to cut the corners on HIM
and finally overlook him in the meat
market, where, some say, he took
refuge under the counter,
Maybe the case is worth is cost to
the county, and maybe not; but the cost
was not consideration with the moot.
