sARroRIAL CRUELTY.
Sad Story Of Partisan Smart Set
Dame and Her Seven Gowns.

Sad Story Of a Partisan Smart Set
Dame and Her Seven Gowns.
They tell story Of an unfortunate
Partisan society woman who. being ter
ribly pushed for gown to wear at a
great occasion and being also in debt
to her dressmaker, sold seven gowns
for the price Of one to Nine. x. who
is a shrewd dealer in castoff finery.
Among these gowns was one hardly
rumpled and which, though very mag
nificent. had evidently been worn at
most only once. This dress Nine. x.
sold as model to Nine. T., who was
the society woman's dressmaker and
who had been obdurate about making
another thing for the poor little wo-
man without cash down.
When this model" came the dress
maker saw chance for a big return
of money. so she compromised with
her customer and agreed to let her
have new dress. Just imported. for
very low figure. whereat the poor
little woman paid all the money she
had received for all her dresses, and
out Nine. Y. brought the model. newly
pressed and touched up.
The poor society woman talked her
self blue in the face. but she could not
say anything to protect herself with
out betraying her dealing with Nine
x. so. poor thing, she danced in bel
old frock after all. having snapped al
her other gowns for the privilege.

To Map the Forest

Forestry officials announce that a
crew will soon be placed in the
field to map and estimate $4,000
acres of government lands in the
Lake Superior division of the Su-
perior Forest, and about 1900
acres in the Stoney River District.
This is being done in accordance
with the Forest Service policy of
disposing of its mature and over
mature timber, and to make way
fer better use of lands by the grow
ing of young stock. In order to
secure the greatest return from the
land, it is necessary to remove all
timber as soon as i natures to
make room for the young stock and
thus keep a crop growing all the
time. When these areas have been
completed the timber will be placed
on the market and sold to the high
est bidder.

In the Woods Over Night.

Thos. LaBeau, the Is year old
son of Mr.. and Mrs. VIM. LaBeau
had an experience Saturday night
which in all probability he will not
careto repeat.
Tom had gone out to the ST.
Croix camps and at the halfway
camp about 13 miles from the city,
decided to get a rabbit while he
was waiting for darkness. He
went into a swamp in the chase for
a rabbit and became lost. He
travelled until darkness set in and
then sat down near a tree and fell
asleep. He claims the bowling OF
wolves awoke him. He climbed a
tree and remained there the balance
of the night.
The clerk at the halfway camp
telephoned to town when no trace
of Tom could be found and a crew
left here at 3'oclock Sunday morn,
ing to look for him. At daylight
the search was begun and in about
an hour the lost was found. Ton
was not much the worse for hi:
night in a tree and since has suf
fered no evil effects. To the mild
ness of the weather he owes hi:
| life.

SEASON CLOSES
Estimated $50 Lives Lost During
Season

The hunting season which ended
Sunday cost 13O lives according to
tabuIations made in Chicago. Ac-
cording to the list, in addition to
the deaths. 14O persons were injur-
ed, several probably fatally. Wis
consin was the chief sufferer for
the season with % dead and 27 in
jured. Michigan was second with
% dead and 16 injured.
$500 deer and moose, weighing
SIS 900 pounds, were shipped to
or through Duluth during the sea-
son just closed, according to the
figures furnished by the express
companiesr The average weight
of the deer shipped was $50 pounds.
The total number of licenses is
sued in the county it is believed
will exceed 5000. Last year but
5,835 hunters secured licenses.
Deputy Auditor A. S. James of this
city issued in the neighborhood of
200. A great many deer and
moose were brought into the city
this year. Considering the lack of
snow for tracking, the success of
hunters was good.

DULL MARKET
Shipping Of Ores Complete, Pig
Iron Market Dull

With one exception, ore shippers
are through for the season, says
the Iron Trade Review of Nov. 27.
The last cargo will be loaded this
week. No ore will be shipped
after Nov. 80, During the past
two weeks shipments of ore have
been desultory and the movement
for November will not be much
over 100000 tons. The tendency
of late years is not to bother with
frozen ore and less and less will be
moved of it in the future. The
total lake movement for the season
will approximate 5000, 900 tons.
Some furnaces are unwilling to
quote below recently prevailing
prices and the volume of business
now being transacted is probably
smaller than at any time during
the depression which has character
lied the market for several months.
The only buying is for require
ments up to Jan. l. Sellers gener-
ally regard this absence of con-
sumers from the market as a desir-
able condition, because when the
buying really starts it seems certain
to come in large volume to meet
the requirements of the many con-
sumers who have refused to order
except in an extremely limited way.
Foundries are fairly busy and are
taking their iron on contracts
freely.
