reports that considera BILE body of
ore has been found. The explora-

Fayal Shaft House Burns.

No. 2 shaft house at the Fayal was
destroyed by fire Thursday evening
as the result of a fire which broke
out underground some twenty
hours previously. This shaft has
been practically abandoned for a
long time, but the timbers and
rooms have been left intact to pre-
vent the surface from caving. The
flare of the burning structure made
a magnificent spectacle even from
this distance.

WILL HUSTLE FOR MORE MEMBERS.
Commercial Club Wilt Boost Member
T. ! shin and Attendance.

At the meeting of the Virginia
Commercial Club Wednesday even
ing pleasing degree of interest
was taken by those present and a
mum Der of matters of importance
to the city were discussed, but the
limited attendance brought out a
decided expression that an in.
creased membership should be had
and Secretary Bickford and ]. p.
Chalmers were appointed as aeon
mittee to secure additional names
and look after dues for the year. q
The desired change in the law
governing vote on county division
was brought up as the result of a
communication from Senator Vail,
and Secretary Butler, of the County
Division Club, was instructed to
cali another meeting of delegates
from range commercial bodies at
an early date, to frame such changes
as may be wished and arrange for
looking after the passage of a law
embracing them. The club will
also pay the expenses of delegates
to this meeting.
The evening train service accord
ed Virginia by the Duluth, Missabe

attention and petition signed by
business men and citizens, asking
fora continuous train service from
Duluth will be presented the COM
pany officials. The request is a
just one, and while a former COM
mittee seeking the same thing was
turned down it is believed a we'll
signed petition will have a benif
cent effect.
The approaching visit of the
delegation from the Legislature to
the iron ranges was brought out

BERDlE FRANCHISE TURNED DOWN.
Council Decides That The Mesaba
Traction Co. Gets Preference.

While it was the consensus of
opinion that the desired franchise
for street railway permit offered
by the Northern Traction Co. of
Hibbing was preferable in many
respects to the offering of the
Mesaba Traction Co. the city
council at its regular Tuesday even
ing meeting saw fit to turn down
the proposition of Mr.. Berdie and
his Hibbing associates and favor
the granting of such permit to
their opponents in the field, Civ
the franchise desired by Mr.. Myers
it's second reading.
The reason for this action is as.
scribed to the belief that the pro-
moters of the Mesaba Traction Co.
have more substantial financial
backing, although on what this be-
lief is founded is not matter of
record.
On the consideration as the ques-
tion prior to the vote being record.
ed addresses we're made to the
council by the opposing contest
ants for the privilege, and by re-
quest the Eveleth Commercial Club
representatives, Messrs. Feeley and
Bowling, and other citizens were
heard, a united support being given
the Northern Company because of
the fact that it's franchise as sub
mitted more nearly conformed to
the requirements of the skeleton
franchise framed by the city at
torney as acceptable to the city's
interests. Following the reading
of the franchise of Mr.. Myers, how
ever, upon consent of himself and
his attorney, number of changes
were made and their acceptance
agreed, and we trust that, as finally
adopted, the city and the interests
of citizens may be fully protected.
1t had been the purpose of The
Entererise to ogive synopsis of the
franchises, but they have since
been in the possession of the city
attorney, who inculcates the de-.
sired changes preparatory to- its
final reading and probable passage
on Tuesday evening next.
Following the meeting the Eve
leth delegation made proposition
to the Northern company's repre-
sentatives to favor that company
in an Eveleth franchise provided
the line be run direct from Mount
Iron to Eveleth, and this phase will
doubtless be considered by Mr..
Berdie and his associates. The
Entesprise would dislike to see
such action, fully realizing the
harm it would do the business in
terests of this city.
The council also, at this meeting,
considered to limited degree the
building OF an addition to the pres
ent city hall or the erection of
separate structure for fire pur-
poses, it being the intention to add
a team and much needed equip
ment the coming season. Arch
itect Radcliffe, of Duluth, was pres
ent at the meeting, but the CON-
mittee was as yet undecided as to
it's wishes in the matter and definite
action was postponed.

Contest on for County Clerk

Atlantic City, Dec. 3.-With Sena.
tor elect W. A. Wilson and Commodore
Louis Kuehnle, city, leader, against
the reform Republican faction headed
by President of City Council Leeds.
the selection of she successor to County
Clerk Lewis P. Scott, both rs an off !.
cial and county leader, promises to
cause one of the bitterest faotional
fights in the history OF the county.
Mr.. Leeds, former City Solicitor God.
trey and the counciImanio element rep
resenting the hotel interest in City
Council have declared for retiring
Senator Edward s. Lee.
Senator Wilson and Ciry Lead
er Kuehnle are unqualifedly for the
appointment of City CLERK Edward r.
Donnelly, who was one of Wilson s
strongest supporters in the hot fight
preceding his nomination over Leeds
in the County Convention.
Lee brought out Leeds as an inde.
pendent candidate against the machine,
and or this reason he will have the
backing OF the anti-machne forces.
1t is generally believed here that Con.
gresham Gardner will refuse to take
any hand in the fight, and that Cover
nor Stokes, who is very friendly with
the Leeds faction, will exercise his
personal privilege by naming Lee for
she vacancy in--spite of thesprotests of
the Kuehnle forces. The County
Clerkship on fee basis is said to be
WORTH not less than $15, 900 per annum.

FaTners Have Automobiles.

Atlantic City, Dec. 3.-Life on the
old farm is no longer complete with
ont an automobile, according to State
Master G. W P. Gaunt, of Mullioa
Hill, who in his annual address before
the New Jersey State Grange. Patrons
of Husbandry, to-days declared that
adoption of the sport by agriculturists
is rapidly doing away with prejudice
against automobiles. Thousands of
prosperous New Jersey farmers already
own touring cars, and many more
will own them next year.
The State masters report declared
for the parcel post, postal savings
banks and a Federal appropriation of
$50. 600, 0Oofor road betterment. Belief
that the grangers would descend upon
Trenton this winter to demand more
radical Legislation for the regulation
of automobiles Was dissipated by de-
claration that theexisting law, prop
erly enforced. was broad enough to
meet every requirement.. Other reports
showed that Is new oranges. with
200o members. were eorganized last year
and that the organized membership in
the State had reached $1,000.
Two hundred delegates are attending

State legislation TO promote she manu-
racture OF denaEured alcohol. Officers
will be elected on Thursday.

GLASS BUSINESS
WILL BE BETTER

Glassworkers are studyino the si,r
a'ion OF the trade pretty seriously Just
now. From the West comes the infor.
nation that production, for the time
being is to be very materially reduced
LUIS month In almost all of the West
ern plants there will be but one shift
working in twenty -four hours. With
continuous tanks there are usuaIlv am.
ployed three eight hour shifts and pro.
duction is the result continuously
night and day. All during this month,
ln the Western section there will be
but one eht hour shift employed.
This arrangement is brought about by
agreement among the Western manu-.
facturers
WORD was received here yesterday
thas tie fires in one OF the big Nun
Gle. Indiana, tanks would be drawn
and the plant would be idle until the
beginning of the new year.
This will have no effect upon the
situation In this city,. The Cumber
land Glass Company will operate its
furnaces day and night as usual. An.
other factory is being prepared to be
pus In operation at once. This will
give employment to more men.
The Cumberland has good orders
That will carry the plant throug h.this

ceived. However the corporation is
getting more orders all the time.

LETTER FROM
GOTHAM CITY

New York, Dec. 2.-Among the
many clever features that have been
recently devised by several of the
great department stores to attract
customers are the fully equipped play
grounds. These are generally INSTALL
ed in the toy department, and are fill
ed with the apparatus that is usually
seen in the out-of-door Fairgrounds.
There are enormous sand boxes,
swings and rocking horses for the
smaller children, while for the more
grown up boys and girls are chutee,
flying rings, trapeze and scaling lad
ders. These play grounds are proving
themselves not only good business
propositions, because mothers may
leave their children there in charge of
attendants while they do their shop
ping, but they have proved to be
source of unbounded delight to the
little ones.
In spite Of constant protest the
tipping" custom in New York con-
tinues to grow. 1t is no longer con-
fined to the walters and the porters,
but now the barber, cab-man, boot
black. expressman and janitor must
be paid in excess of their regular
charges In order to get good service.
And each one Of these servants ex-
poets a certain amount as tip, and
are apt to spurn anything smaller
than they are in the habit of receiving
from the average patron. The Gus
tom obtains, for example, in most
hotels, for man to give as a tip ten
per cent OF the amount Of his bill but
anyone who has fifty cent luncheon,
would be regarded scornfully by the
waiter if he laid down five cent piece.
Similar standards hold in the other
occupations. The cab man expects
quarter at least in addition to his fare,
the boot black gives a few extra
f1ourishes OF the brush in the expecta-
ton OF a nickle, and barber who
charges fifteen cents for a shave, in
the best shops receives as a rule ten
cents as a tip. The expressman or
furniture mover is tipped anywhere
from ten cents to two dollars, in order
to make him careful of the wood work
and wall paper. The custom has
grown SO fast, that New Workers are
wondering what class Of servants will
be the next to demand gratuities.
The latest popular malady with New
York's fair sex is shoppers head
ache. which seems to he the out
growth of the large department stores
with their varied and numerous bar.
gains that attract women to the store
early in the morning, and hold them
there till late In the afternoon. A
manager Of one of the big stores re-
marked the other day that most of the
headaches were due to the fact that
the women went without their lun-
cheon. He said: There is no work
more nervetrying than shopping and
good substantial luncheon will help
much. Women should take an hour
for rest and luncheon thinking as little
as possible Of the errands they must
do in the afternoon. I believe that
women who live in the city have little
excuse for doing more than half q
days shopping at a time. 7 think
great many suffer from a ''shoppers
headache, and this is one reason the
afternoon trade is harder to please
than the mornings.

Although the structure is the highest
in the world next to the Eiffel Tower
in Paris still it is disappointing as a
rule to those who stand in front of it

mounts Its dome. This is due to the
fact that the buildings all about it are

advantage. However, from vantage
