St. Patrick's Day Entertainment.

The St. Patrick's Day, entertain
ment at the Fay Opera Saturday ev-
ening, under the auspices of Our
Lady of Lourdes church, drew a
crowded house and the program
was of a character to please.
: The appreciation of the musical
portion of the entertainment was
fully exemplified by repeated en-.
cores, more especially the numbers
by Mr.. David Evans, who responded
several times with catchy Irish airs.
The address by Mr.. Andrew Rock
was polished and forceful,. deafing
with Irish history and replete: with
sketches of many patriots identified
with the history of the Emerald
1s1e. Mr.. Rock spoke hopefully OF
Ireland's future and of the time
when all barriers should be sur
mounted. and allloyal patriots unite
in the effort to throw, off the: yokes
of bondage and place Ireland in he,
proper sphere among the nations Of
the earth-the position to: which an

the objective point. s9
The proposed line will etart from
the Hobson branch of the old Swan

and will pass two miles east of Stur-.

valley, thence northward through
the Sturgeon and Little Fork val:

The proposed line will tap a rich

that half billion feet of green tim.
Der stin stands within a radius of
five miles of Sturgeon. Lake, while
other, tracts are encountered in the
line Of the survey, The line will
also furnish an. outlet for the many
farmers who have recognized the
possibilities of the rich valleys to

IS Alderman-Johnson is not be:
:liever in playing favorites in his Of
fetal capacity, as evidenced BY the
introduction by him at Tuesday ev-
ening's council meeting of two res
olutions designed to- compel the
Great Northern railway to live up
to the provisions of the municipal
ordinance governing railroads, one
resolution providing the railroad
company be instructed to forthwith
place a flagman. at the Virginia ave.
nue. crossing and the other provid-
ing that the company be instructed
to erect and maintain signs at all
crossings within the city limits.
Both these resolutions were sup
ported and received the sanction of
all members of the council present.
The failure of Dowling Bros, con-
tractors on the last lateral sewer
system installed, to properly com
plete their contract, engrossed the
attention of the body for a time,
and the clerk was instructed to no.
tify the contractors to finish their
work forthwith. -
The paving question was the cub.
ject of an extended informal discus
sion, the mayor stating that signers
enough had been secured to the Pc
tition to insure paving, and that
there was nothing further to do ex-
cept to find out the kind of material
to be used. :
Alderman Prijanovich stated he
considered the selection, of the kind
OF material used should properly be
amatter for the considerations of the
property owners, but the mayor
said it was not the business of the
property owners to pave the street;
that it was the business Of the ad-
ministration to do this and that if
the property owners are not salts
fed to leave the matter in the hands
of the administration the quicker
they turned them out the better;
and that the administration must
take the curses or good will9of the
people for the work performed

- Rainv Lake Road. T..

The Minnesota Land & Construc-
ton Company, a subsidiary COM
pany of the Duluth, Rainy Lake &
Winnipeg road, has placed an order
for seventy-five logging cars with
the Russell Wheel & Foundry Com
pany. The shipment Of logs and
lumber will be the principal busi-
ness carried on over the new road
for few years after it's completion,
but it is expected that its building
will SO rapidly develop the Northern
Minnesota country. along its route
that the regular freight and passen-
ger business that falls to the rail
road in more thickly populated por-
tions of the country will amount to
more than the logging industry in
point of revenue within a very short
time '* .-'
P. McDonnell, who has the con:
tract for the extension of the. Rainy
Lake road from Ashawa to Interna.
tional Falls, is sending in supplies
at the rate of 200 tons a day, to be
distributed along the survey. From
Ashawa the supplies are hauled to
points along the proposed extension
where camps are being built to- re.
ceive them and toaccommodate the
crews Of men that will be on the
work. The cold weather, with an
abundance a Of snow just now, will
prove to be an important factor in
the more rapid building of the line
