efforts TO restore peace in Cuba and

icayors, It is stated, is that it may be

ready been secured and that there.

To restore peace or insure permanent

Members of the government inform
ed the Associated Press that they are
making the efforts in accordance with
the advice contained in President
Rooscyclt's letter; that they have no
objection to the friendly assistance
of the United States in the matter if
II becomes necessary, but that they
believe they can settle it between the
government aud the revolutionists
without the necessity of any inter
vcution. At least, they say, they are
making an attempt to accomplish this
end unaided, and with fair prospects
of success.

a large number of. friends
met at Irwin & O'Brien S ware.
house in Blackduck last Satnr-
day evening to.assistsMr. James
80. George in celebrating the.
fiftieth anniversary Of his birth.
The event was a success in every
way, and while regrets were re
ceived from many friends living
at a distance, those who did at
tend made up in warmth and
heartiness, for all absentees.
Mr.. George had made full prepar-
ations for the event, and all
present voiced a general verdict
in saying they hadn't had so
good time since they attended
O'Flanagan's wake. The room
was beautifully decorated with
variations Of birch and tamarack
cordwood interspersed with
cross cut saws and out Of date
calendars, while festoons Of old
clothing hung at intervals along
the walls. The ceiling was hung
profnsely with dainty and deli
cate cobwebs well set off with
large quantities of last years
fly specks. And the floor was
thickly strewn with cast off
rubbers and other footgear, the
accommodations Of years, and rep
resenting large outlay of time
and money. The guests as rule
we're in full evening dress, blue
flannel shirts and overalls being
the prevailing styles, with an
occasional billed shirt or paper
collar to provide variety and
serve as reflectors for the large
sixteen candle power light. After
a few hours Of cards, progressive
slap jack being the principle
entertainment, at which nearly
everyone won prizes, refresh
ments were served. These con-
sisted of a large pot Of baked
beans as the "piece de resistance"
surrounded by all the luxurles
usually to be found at this season
in the woods, and accompanied
by a choice cup of Rio, with
dilutent Of the best ootainable
condensed milk. The glitter of
glass and metal was dazzling to
most Of the guests, who were
rather unused to such magnif-
cence. The tableware was of
the brightest tin to be found at
this season of the year, when
most of the outfits have seen
from one to four years service in
the camps, Owing to the forget
fulness Of the caterer who had
omitted to furnish a dishup spoon
for the beans, a shovel had to be
made Of a pine slab, but with this
exception everything passed off
serenely. AS most of the hard
cider and cold tea had disap.
peared before the serving of re.
freshments, the numerous toasts
we're drank in the liquid that
made Bemldji famous. After
an hour or more considerably
more the gang dispersed, pre-
sumably to their homes, with
many hand shakes and wishing
Mr.. George many happy returns
different from the returns of
1904, and voWing they would
come again the next time he was
fifty.
