Ore Prospects in SOLO.

There is said to be some excite

Fldodwood, over the prospect of
6nd1ing ore in paying quantities in
That locality. Quite number of
Duluth people have been purchas-

townships, and there is talk of pool

amount of exploratory work. Many
specimens OF surface rock assaying

found, and ore indications. are said
to . be plentiful in o1tcroppings

Raising Pine Trees.

An interesting experiment in re-
forestration is being made at the
Sturgeon River farm of S. w. Bride,
and it gives promise of excellent re-.
suits, says the Escanaba Iron Port.
The pride of the farm, which CON-
prises 1880 acres, is a grove of about
@ second growth pine, which Mr..
Bride has had trimmed up and:the
underbrush removed from amongst
them. The trees have grown nearly
two .i4ches in diameter and thirty
inches in height during the past
year. It is Mr.. Brides intention to
trim up 1000 more young pines this
year. He is so we'll satisfied with
present results that he thinks there
will be money made in cultivating
second growth pine.

the liberal advertising patronage

The Rhine and Moselle Fire Insurance
Company's long-expected announcement
of its exact attitude toward it's San
francisco losses came by cable yester-
day, but 1t was so clouded in meaning
that neither Robert Mathis nor Otto
Amman, the special German repye ;
sentatives OF the insurance corporation,
could determine what policy the home
office had decided to pursue. But one
sentence In the long eablegram was
clear and that sentence was, I'VE deny
liability for any San Francisco losses
Representatives Mathis apd Amman
turned the cablegram over TO Attorney
Van Ness for further deciphering He,
too, was unable to fathora the mys-
teries of its other sentences A request
was cabled TO Germany requesting a
palmer statement Until this statement
arrives the policy-holders cannot tell
whether the Rhine and Mosclle will
make any offer of compromise.
Both Mathis and Amman have
strongly recommended to the directors
of the German company that some set
Element be made with San Francisco.
They do not admit that under the
earthquake clause their company is lia-
ble. but they say that San Francisco is
suffering and should be given some con-
sideration. The German company is
afraid to offer compromise for fear
such an OFFER will be interpreted in the
courts as an admission OF liability. The

Sunday night. and in the presence OF
large assembly of members the keys of
the new building were presented by the
president of the building committee to
the first president of the association.
After the exercises had been brought to
a close the remainder of the evening
was spent in dancing. Cigars and re-
freshments were served and everything
possible was done to make the occasion
one of enjoyment for all present.
No sooner had the earthquake and
fire destroyed the old hall than the
members of the San Francisco Turn
Verein began to plan the erection Of
another building. On the Friday fell
lowing the earthquake meeting was
held for that purpose and committees
were appointed to look after the work
The new building would have been
completed some time ago but for the
scarcity of lumber.
The present building will serve all
the purposes of the Organization until
the new, expensive structure, work on
which will be commenced almost imme-
diately is completed. Then the pres
ent hall will be used simply as a gym
nasium.
The building committee having In
charge the construction of the new hall
consists of John Simmer, president;
William PlagemanH and Hans Veroni.
The board of trustees consists of Franz
Acker, president; Paul Leonhardt. Hans
Veroni, Oscar Hooks and Charles VOL

organized in 1852 and is the oldest as

The employers Of stevedores and
longshoremen all along the water front
were unanimous yesterday in acceding
to the mems request for more pay. The
OCEANIC Steamship Company notified
the union on Saturday that it's request
would be granted. The Pacific Mail
Company gave no answer until about
10 o'clock yesterday morning, owing 10
the fact that Vice President r. p.
schwerin was out of town. AS soon as
Schwerin had familiarized himself with
the conditions OF the mems request the
order was given for work to proceed at
the Hartman dock under the new pay
schedule.
The steam schooner owners acceded
to the mems request on condition that
the union would provide men to run
winches on steamers manned by non
union crews. The longshore iumbermen
are not inclined TO do this and 1t is
thought they will insist on what they
term union steam"

An opinion from Bronson Howard,
the well-known dramatist: Like al
most everyone else who has seen 40
years Of theatrical life. think the
stage just now is overburdened with
scenery and swamped with extravagant
clothes. This condition cannot be
kept up much longer. The managers
cannot stand 1t. 1t is too expensive
and the rivalry between them, each
trying to outdo the other, must bring
about a reaction that will do away
with the whole scheme"

TWO young men who played the
part Of ghosts in Galway, Ireland, with
extraordinary success, found it an ex-
pensive pastime. An elderly woman
was acting as caretaker OF vacant
house, and the young men gained an
entrance to the upper rooms, where
their antics SO convinced the woman
that the house was haunted that she
left the place. The owner on his re-
turn found feather beds and pictures
missing, and for these the two lively
ghosts have been sentenced to six
months hard labor.
