Street Fair Next Week.

The City Fire Department has
arranged to have the big Danville
& Kasper Amusement Company
show here all next week, and to
that end have closed contract
with that company for six high
class shows, Ferris Wheel and a
Merry-Go-Round.
They carry ten piece band, and
give free street concerts daily, and
big time is assured as the fire
boys will leave nothing undone to
make the affair decided success.
The fire boys get percentage OF
all monies the shows take in; the
company comes we'll recommended,
and you will. bs pleased with the
Entertainment offered. The com
pany is this week at Grand Rapids,
and the papers OF that city speak
highly of them. All their shows
are clean, moral and high-class,
and there are no hangers-on or
pick-pockets following them. No
games of chance are allowed. Re-
member the date and bring the
family. All will enjoy it.

The line from this city to the bor-

through connections between the
Canadian Northwest and the head

THE NEWROAD REACHES BORDER
Last Spike Will Be Driven the New Pike by President w.
II. Cook the D., r. L. & W. Tomorrow.

President w. H. Cook, of the Du-
luth, Rainy Lake & Winnipeg, came
up from Duluth last evening and
goes to the front to see the finish of
the race to the border between his
line and the Minnesota & Interna-
tional, which will come to a finish
with the end of this week.
The Rainy Lake road is the vic
tor. The Minnesota does not expect
to be able to drive the last spike be-
fore September 1st, while the rival
line will be finished and the last
spike driven tomorrow. Freight
service over the new line will be in
stalled Immediately, but it is i'm
probable that through passenger
service will be accorded the public
prior to the first of the coming
month.
The new line strikes the boundary
at Rainier, one and one-half miles
east of International Falls, and a
bridge now in course of construc-
ton will give the new line direct
connections with the Canadian
Northern and points on that line.
The completion of this line will
be an important event in the his
tory Of Duluth and of the rapidly
developing section through which
the road passes, and offers special
inducements to the live merchant

All Water Not Same to Fish.

BY testing the amount of oxygen
in lake water it can be determined
lust what kind of fish can live and
multiply therein. This is an inn
portant discovery by Prof. Birge of
the Wisconsin game and fish COM
mission and of the Wisconsin
university faculty.
Samuel F. Fullerton, superintend-
ent of fisheries for the Minnesota
game and fish commission, has re-
turned from Erie, Pa, where he at
tended the meeting of the American
Fisheries society, and tells of Prof.
Birge's explanation there of his
find.
"Prot. Birge, said Mr.. Fullerton,
told us he mad proved his theory of
gases in water by practical tests of
waters in Wisconsin lakes. Lakes
vary greatly, he says, in the
amount of gases they contain,
especially oxygen. Different species
of fish require different amounts of
oxygen.
Thus with pike, running water
and great amount of free oxygen
is needed for their prosperity. In
waters the reverse of this, pike can
not live. This doubtless explains
why it is that after we have dumped
tens of thousands of pike fry in
Minnetonka that not one pike has
ever been caught there. They SIM
ply won't live in Minnetonka water.
1--WE intend to look into Prof.
BRIGGS theory; and will probably
adopt his system of tests of lake
waters for Minnesota use. That is
to say, before we have fish fry of
certain kind freed in a lake we will
have the waters of that lake ex-
amined by Brige test to see If that
variety of a fish can live therein.
This will save untold thousands of
fish fry as we'll as time, labor, and
actual money which otherwise
might be wasted"

Ask for Aurora Franchise.

The Mesaba Traction Company.
which has thus far secured the
Virginia franchise, seeks franchises
mt the present time at Mount Iron,
Bull, Hibbing, Chisholm, and
Aurora. The including of this lat.
ter point in the list of prospective
towns to be connected by the line
would indicate the intention of the
company to cover the entire field if
permitted to do 80. At Eveleth,
however, the Commercial Club con-
siders the franchise should be
awarded the highest bidder, and it
is also understood that, differently
from Virginia, there will be more
than one bid for the privilege sub
mitted.

the range country, visiting all
points of interest, including Vir-
ginia, Eveleth, Hibbing, Biwabik,

Chisholm and the new west end
sections.
Members of the commission plan
to become thoroughly acquainted
with the iron district of the state,
in order that they may better under
stand detailed inventories of iron
properties they recently called for
and be in a position to more ably
compare these returns with assessed
valuations when the time comes
for such work. F. A. Wildes, Jr., in.

VIRGINIA MINES ARE AGAIN ACTIVE
Working Short Force, But Is Anticipated the Strikers Will
Return to Work the Coming Week..

The opening of the week marked
the reopening of many of the mines
on the Mesaba, every property in
the Virginia district being again
numbered on the active list, al
though the fact that the original
instigators of the strike movement
have thus far refused to return to
work has left all with decided
shortage in crews.
The proposition to return to work,
however, has enlisted the attention
of the strikers throughout the week,
and while thus far no definite sign
of weakening has been manifested
on the part of the Finnish miners
and workmen' constituting in great
degree the striking element it ia
understood several votes have been
taken at meetings held during the
week to return to work and that the
result of these attempts to settle
the matter penceably have received
the sanction of about an even mum.
ber as was counted with the op-
ponents of the proposition.
In the meantime, the mining CON-
panies have placed guards at every
property and at roads leading there
to and are giving employment to
all applicants and furnishing need
ed protection to their men. Many
men are also being brought in from
outside, and while the com panies
would doubtless prefer to take back
the men who went out their places
are fast being filled and unless they
return to work at an early date they
will find their positions filled by
new Corners to the section.

CLAUDE FEELS BADLY.
leastwise His Screed Against Virginia
Ball Team Would So Indicate.

Of all the uncalled for and malic-
ious screeds it has ever been our
misfortune to read from the pen of
a man who has the reputation of
having once known what sport was,
found in the last issue of the
Mesaba Ore in the write-up accord
ed the recent Virginia-Hibbing ball
game in which the Hibbing team
was forced to bite the dust by a
score of z too.
The Ore contends that "the Hib-
bing team was defeated by the um.
pire before they went onto the dia-
mond,' and makes many other
statements equally as senseless and
uncalled for-and which can scarce
be palliated through the fact that
the writer of the article was not a
witness of the game and manufac-
tured his published verdict from
whole cloth in which natural
spleen against telling the truth
formed the web. Among these
statements we find the allegation
that "Freeman, of the Saskatoon
team, was doing the pitching for
Virginia and was wilder than a
wounded buck, but that made no
difference as anything he put with
in two feet of the plate was called a
strike" and that "the Virginia play
ers we're outclassed at every stage
of the game and when it came to
playing ball they were not there,
but Jim Carey, the umpire, was
with them in a way which meant
that they were going to win." And
more of the same dope.
If receiving justly deserved de.
feat-one which was administered
on it's merits-makes the Hibbing
sports feel as badly as their editor.
ial champion appears to, no man
who has drop of good live blood
in him need regret the fact that
Fate kept him from the curse OF
becoming a citizen of a town inhab.
tied by such class of tinhorn pix.

which time there can be no enforc

The strikers have, during the
week, attempted to create an ex-
preston of public sympathy for
their cause by the assurance of
circulars bearing upon the alleged
justness of their cause, but the
public does not appear to recognize
the foundation for their action in
ordering the strike and sympathy
is as rule seemingly withheld.
AT some points considerable
trouble has been had with the strik-
ers, most noticeably at Hibbing
where nineteen were run in on Mon
day for assaults and threats against
workmen who have returned to
their old places, but this condition
has not thus far been extended to
this city, although on Wednesday
afternoon one man was "run in" for
an attempt to p;vss the guard and
one or two lesser scraps" between
the guards and men are reported.
The fact that the proposition to
return to work receives fair sup
port among the men who are out,
however, would indicate that in all
probabilities the backbone of the
strike in the local camp will be
be broken within the week and most
of the men return to their old
places.
From an unbiased standpoint we
believe such action would be a wise
one on the part of the men, as other
wise it is evident that many of their
places will be found filled within a
short time and prohibit their re-
employment for some time, at the
best.
