THE VANISHED SLIPPER NIGHTS.
miners and concerts and show.
Dnlirious evenings Of whist; :
Dances where everyone goes,
Lectures too wise to resist,
Pictures we really must see,
Burdens that have to be borne!
oh, for the glad Used-to-be,
When slippers were meant to be
worn!
oh. for the Are in the crate
And the 10y Of the old easy chair
And the nights without ever q date.
And the youngsters awaiting me
there!
oh. for the evenings of rest.
Undisturbed by a taSicab's horn,
When a man needn't haste to get
dressed
And slippers were NEAR to be
worn.
Home once was a haven for play,
A refuge from troubles that grieve;
A Mace where the toiler might stay,
And not just a station to leave.
And a book and a pipe and q chair
Meant peace to the toiler forlorn,
!! But those were the days when q pair
OF slippers were meant to be worn.
Now I look at my slippers and pine;
Shall ever their comfort I know!
Shall ever an evening be mine
When I shall have nowhere to got
Shall the glad days return that are
gone.
Or is all of my yearning in vain?
Shall 1 never get home and put on
Those old-fashioned slippers again!
HE EVEN WEARS GLASSES.
Does he take are of his health?"

W MYSTERIES

Any newspaper reader will recall if he takes the
trouble that during the years Of the war he has seen from
time to time in the papers accounts Of claims made by
Gus forces of energy which were to result in the work
ing OF wonders. Energy which was to be snatched from
the ether with negligible effort. and vast power was to
be developed by the waving of a wand or the touch Of a
button. Sometimes these alleged discoveries have been
used as the basis for stock selling schemes. Sometimes
there seems to have been no financial feature involved,
but desire of the inventor seems to have been to feed his
own vanity by keeping his name before the public. A
good many people have invested money in enterprises
which were to apply to discoveries announced and, many
OF those who have not paid money have had their imas-
nation stirred by the announcements ard have awaited
eagerly the developments Of schemes which were to oper-
ate machinery. transport persons and goods, carry on the
operation OF war and ETC., practically without the expen-
diture Of any energy. It may be interesting to those who
have credited many Of the remarkable statements to
check over the situation now and note that out Of all OF
these announcements not one has developed anything OF
practical value 80 far as known. We are still op Grating
our machinery. handling out railroad trains and doing
cept that here and there has been an invention of some
value which yhas resulted in a saving Of labor and ex-
.pense.
Some Of these have been very important, but in con.
nection with none Of them has there been anything OF
mystery and it is quite safe to say a general rule to as
field has dsssivsd himself or IL trying to deceive others.

SUPERIOR PERSONAL NOTES
IN DAYS OF LONG AGO.

Those who picked up their daily pa
per in West Superior on April Is, 1893,
read personal notes as follows:
Frank A. Flower has returned from
three weeks eastern trip for the
benefit of his health.
Here's one that will make the BOYS
in Bingoland laugh, viz: Rev. G. 8.
Starkweather has withdrawn his resig-
nation as rector of the Church of the
Redeemer.
Emma Opper, a sister of Upper, the
cartoonist, after spending the winter
with friends in Superior, plans soon to
60 to Ohio.
Mrs. R. J. Shields, teacher of music
in the public schools, has been invited
to deliver an address before the
Worlds Congress auxiliary of the
Worlds Exposition at Chicago.
The Russell Miller Milling company
has let contract for lighting its flour
ing mill, 46o electric lights being re-
quired.
J. ]. Aspenwall has resigned the
managership of the Ohio Coal COM
pany for the purpose of devoting more
of his time to his personal business.
Squatters on Wisconsin Point are re-
newing their leases on lands occupied
by them but owned by Col. Hiram
Hayes, Judge Clough and others.

It is. seen towering above
all else, clad in glittering white, the
pinnacle Of EQUALITY.
Equality is its name. Its coming is
as sure as the sunrise. No power or
combination Of powers on earth can
stop it. It is the legitimate offspring
If democracy. The unrest Of the world
is due to the travail Of its birth.
Wages and hours Of labor have become
merely incidental or have gone into

It is probably true that not one in
ten thousand Of labor's millions ever
mentally glmpsed the goal But,
strangely enough, the few who have
seen the vision and have believed in
its reality, have been far in advance Of
those in other walks Of life and have
been the seers Of the race.

hear a temple bell
Breathing, like perfume,
From its exalted place
The presence Of Confucius,
The wisdom of a race,
The future of people,
The only one Of all
Whose conquerors are conquered,
Whose history is tall
Taller than Fujiyama,
Taller than Koyasan,
Taller than that red sun
Consuming from Japan.
And my face is in the flowers,
And my brow is in the dust,
And my heart is sick with perfume
And I weep because I must;
I weep for you, o masters,
o conquerors, o slaves,
As L hear you stir in China
The quiet of your graves.

MADAME BRISBINE'S METHOD IN
SOCIETY REPORTING.

In the winter of 1928, Mrs. A. M.
Brisbine was society editress of the
dear old News Tribune. That lady
was a pulchritudinous widow, a kins.
woman of F. F. McIver, then the man
ager of the Duluth Dry Goods Com
pany, long since brought under Pat
rick domination and name.
Madame Brisbine possibly must be
credited with introducing affectation,
artificiality and snobbishness into Du-
luth society. If her style and system
of writing society "slop" meant any
thing at all, it indicated that she
looked upon Duluthians as Doors, babes,
novices and even savages when it came
to haut ton society, as Mile. Camel
might say.
One week, Madame Brisbine called
down Duluth g society danes for what
she termed a lapsus Hnguae in calling
a chest of drawers with mirror on
top dresser. She lectured them on
this and on that in way to convulse
some and enrage others. After read
ing the venerable R. G. Mitchell 3
virile writings in the old Tribune for
so many years, Madame 9risbine's

Wolfer on Saturday, April 20, and
O'Connor was at once released.
AS soon as O'Connor got out Of
states prison, he quarrelled with law
yer Nethaway and the latter at once
dismissed his action in which damages
for false Imprisonment in the sum Of
$4,000 were asked from Gov. Merriam
O'Connor, hearing that the authori.
ties of LIE Sueur county intended to
arrest him again, quickly made his
way across the st. Croix bridge into
Wisconsin, outside of Minnesota juris-
diction.
It then came out that Mrs. o Con
nor had not died but, for some time,
had been living at New Duluth with
the J. E. Melhorn family. Mrs. O'Con-
nor had been showing evidence of los
ing her mind and, some time before,
Melhorn had made application to
Thomas Clark, superintendent of Poor,
to have her taken to the poor house.
Three children were not with her and
no one seemed to know where they
were. What became of the woman and
whether or not she and her husband
ever were reunited, memory fails the
writer.

To follow you through every mood

Of your most egotistic eloquence.
When the full flood-tide Of your pratt

count the pros and contras as it goes,
And find the balance strongly with the

It is not conversation that you seek,
But just for one to listen while you

How truly absence makes the heart
grow fonder,
Contented to forgive-while you are
yonder.

MAGIE'S GOOD WORK.

Every lover Of law, order and de-
cency should thank sheriff Magic for
his zeal and efforts whereby brazen
blind-pigger and moonshiner recently
was caught on the Miller trunk road
north Of Duluth.
st. Louis county was legally voted
dry and dry it should be, otherwise
the rising generation will have no re-
spect for the law. It is not right and
fair that lazy, shiftless, crooked men
should be permitted to debauch their
fellows, In defiance Of law and for tho
purpose of making easy money.
st. Louis county is pimply with
blind-piggers and boot-leggers, plying
their lawless, pernicious, denoraiztng
trade. Many Of them are foreigners
Who look on Minnesota 8 Law admins
trattou as q joke and who care only to
accumulate hoard Of dirty dollars and
then 20 back to the Balkans, Austria
or even classic but decadent Greece.
It is a shame that st. Louis county's
Officers Of the law are not more &C
tive, jealous and successful in catch
ing these dealers in blockade booze.
For years, the sheriff and county at
torney have passed the buck back and
forth. Municipalities in the county,
even Duluth, follow the example Of
sheriff and county attorney. The coun-
ty commissioners are stingy in their
contingent appropriations, especially
for the county attorney. Then there
is a gentleman's understanding that
the county officers shall not modest
blind piggers in the city Of Duluth and
that the city's peace officers shall not
butt into booze violations In the him
terland. The late chief McKercher
once did get evidence against back
country *blind-pigger for the purpose
Of slapping sheriff Meining, but the
latter never came back at McKercher,
as he easily could have done an hun
dred times, both as to redlight women
and illegal booze vendors.
Let this good work Of prosecuting
violators of the liquor laws go on,
even to the extent Of making all the
deputy sheriffs climb high onto the
water wagon and stay there, under pen
atty Of losing their jobs.

LABOR.

Out of chaos, from the murk,
I arose and did my work.
While the ages changed and sped,
I was toiling for my bread.
Underneath my sturdy blows,
Forests fell and cities arose,
And the hard, reluctant soil
Blossomed richly from my toll.
Palaces and temples grand
Wrought with my cunning hand.
Rich indeed was my reward
Stunted soul, and body SCARED
With the marks of scourge and rod.
I, the tiller of the sod,
From the cradle to the grave
Shambled through the world-a slave
Crushed and trampled, beaten, cursed
Serving best, but served the worst,
Starved and cheated, gouged and
spoiled,
Still 1 builded, still I toiled.
Undernourished, underpaid
In the world myself had made.
Up from slavery I rise, >!
Dreams and wonder in my eyes,
After brutal ages past,
Coming to my own at last.
I was slave-but I am free!
I was blind-but I can see!
I, the builder, the maker,
7, the calm tradition breaker,
Slave and serf and clod no longer,
Know my strengthened who il
stronger?
I am done with ancient frauds
Ancient lies and ancient gods
All the sham is overthrown,
shall take and keep my own,
Unimpassioned, unafraid,
Master of the world we made!
-Berton Braley.
