MEsARI RANCE WAGES.

The inhabitants OF the Michigan
ranges have had fed 10 them for several
years that the wages OF miners ON the
Mesabi range are much in advance OF
the wages paid on the Michigan ranges.
The recent strike on the Measbi has
brought 10 the front the wage scale on
the Minnesota ranges
Wage conditions on the range are
stated in figures complied 10y the state
labor bureau for 1906
The average daily wages Of the mine
crews are e. %, being practically the
same for underground and surface
labor The average pay ranges from
Si.s6 day for tool carriers and 81 73
for change house men. mp 10 a. 50

TWISTED MAN IN TROUBLE.
Sensational Charges Against Former
 President of Silk Go.

Winsted, Oct 31-Evidence of a highly sensational nature tending to show that Eugene Potter, formerly president and treasurer of the Win sted Silk company, and respected resident of this place, for a period of ten years, employed funds of the company for his personal use and that December 12, 1902, he was indebted to the company $23,074, was brought out in the superior court yesterday when the case of the Winsted
 company against L. w. Potter was be- gun before Judge Case. A number of officers and employees of the company were called as witnesses and practic- ally all of the testimony was along the lines mentioned above.
 The action was brought by the Winsted Silk company against L. w, Potter, son of Eugene Potter, to re- strain him from cashing two checks one for $3,0S0.22 and the other for $1,060, given him by his father be- fore his retirement. The company claims that no money was due him. It was shown that at the time of Flu gene Potter's resignation the con- pany accepted his note for $25,OO0 with interest at the rate of per cent together with notes for $10,000 from the Winsted Silk company to MT Pot ter and 155 shares of Winsted Silk company stock as collateral security for the note. The case was continued until next Wednesday.
 The suit is the first of a series that have been brought, the Potters being the plaintiff in one or more cases.

A girl was born October 26 to MI and Mrs William F. Brophy of 774 East Main street.
 The department of public works held meeting at o'clock this after noon to approve the water rents for the past six months and to complete their work on the estimates. The total receipts of the water rents will exceed that of the previous half of the year by $1,60O or $1,70O. so that the drop of half a cent didn't inter- fere with the raising of sum suffi- cient to maintain the system and take care of the bonds and leave q neat surplus. It now remains to be seen whether the board will recommend a fiat rate of one cent, something which they claimed they intended to do, provided this would raise enough funds to run the system without leav- ing a deficit somewhere.
