E. M. Prindle, of Duluth, general sales agent for the Pitner gasoline lamp system, is i|i the city today. Mr. Prindle was one of the promoters of the proposed interurban range line which recently fell through owing to the tightness of financial backing, but which was meant in good faith and which cost the promoters a pretty penny in initial work.
Geo. Lerch, Hibbing, was a visitor to the city Wednesday afternoon.
This is a Misouri boy's definition of a friend: "A friend is a person who knows all about you and likes you just the same.' That is even better than the definition of a gentleman, given by a little girl: "A gentleman is a man you don't know very well."
Hugh Fawcett, of the firm of Fawcett & Johnson, contractors having the Duluth, Rainy Lake & Winnipeg terminal building improvements at this point, was in the city Saturday.
H. A. Sodergren, a former Virginia druggist now located in Minneapolis, came up from the Twin Cities last evening for a brief visit and to look after property interests.

"And now," said the lecturer, at the close of a discourse on theosophy, to which his audience had listened with the deepest attention, " in accordance with my uslual custom I shall extend to any person present who cares to do so the opportunity to ask whatever question may be in his mind. I wish to leave no point obscured if it is in my power to make it clear." " There's one thing I've always wanted to know," said an earnest looking man in the audience, rising as he spoke. "I've asked a great many men and none of them could tell me. Why is it that you always find a picture of a goat on a bock beer sign?"
H. O. Johnson, Harry Osterberg, A. Hawkinson and Morris Stave-rum, in the H. O. Johnson car, and H. L. Bartlett, E. M. Krost, Capt. Osterberg and son William of Tower, in the Bartlett car, formed a merry party of motorists to make the first trip over the Crane Lake portage, on Saturday. Driving from here to Tower where the cars were put aboard a scow and rafted to the Dam, the landing being safely made and the trip resumed, the party making Harding, on Crane Lake, and farther, reaching within about eight miles of the Canadian border. On their way back they picked up Frank Gillmor, with the Virginia & Rainy Lake Company, who was enroute for home after a three week's cruise in the border country, Virginia being reached Monday evening.

It would appear to even a disinterested spectator that the honorable ( we speak advisedly) chief of police of Hibbing might have been in better business Saturday had he been attending to the duties for which he is paid in the west end village than he was in being the prime factor in a slugging match following the football game. It seems that the wearing of a star makes some men think they can "slug" a citizen with impunity, and go to any extent in the discharge of their "duty," even to shooting a man down in the street.
HIBBING WINS BY A SCORE OF SIX TO NOTHING
In the football game between the Virginia and Hibbing Highs at Oliver Park Saturday afternoon the visitors won the honors by a score of 6 to 0, Webster of the visiting team making a touchdown and goal being kicked in the first half.
Considerable dissatisfaction was manifested at the game through the playing of Wilbur Wring, son of Chief of Police Wring of Hibbing, whom it is claimed has been on the Hibbing High for four successive years prior to the present season, thereby being ineligible under the rules governing the high school contests. This feeling was not altogether eliminated at any stage of the game, and at the conclusion was nearly fanned into fury by the attempt of Chief Wring to "swing" on the Virginia manual traing professor.
The incident is one to be deplored in more ways than one, as it will likely tend to effectually stop any future games between the contending teams, and also as it showed the Hibbing chief of police in a most unenviable light to the hundreds of young people on the field. Hot blood is not conducive to sport, even though the man who shows it, inav be honored in his own community l>v being trusted to wear a "star."
Hank Boyle acted as referee, and while there was some kicking on the part of the visitors at one or two of his decisions it was to be expected, for nobody ever heard of a Hibbing aggregation being content with anything but the long end of things.
Gillespie & Laury, under-their removal to 509 Chestnut street, where they have the neatest undertaking parlors on the ranges.
THE SUNNY SIDE OF BROADWAY.
Three hours of laughter interspersed witJi ravishing melody, is only one of the many delights provided by the latest musical sensation, "The Sunny Side of Broadway."
This delightful combination of comedy and music is from the pen of Mr. Boyle Woolfolk, whose recent offering, " The Winning Miss," has just closed a successful season, which has brought its author into the spot light of 'The Musical Comedy world."
When this eomfedy is presented here on October 21st at the Fay Opera House by Mr. Boyle Wool-folk, it will be offered by a cast of exceptional artists, foremost of whom is Mr. Max Bloom, whose phenomenal success in "The Winning Miss" will long be remembered.
In support of Bloom is Miss Alice Sher, comedienne, Miss Florence Morrison, prima donna, Mr. J. E. Coughlin, Mr. Jack Leslie, Mr. John Gilmore and Mr. William May.
The comedy is full of mirth and replete with fine music, among the popular numbers being "My New Motor Boat," "Beware of the Garden of Love," "College Days," "The Piazza Plant," "Every Town Has a Broadway," "Mr. Moon You're Full Tonight," "Meet Me at the Stage Door Johnnie," "Selling Papers" and many more.
The dances of the Ponje Ballet is a special feature.

Up to 1908 there had been practically no improvement in base burners for 15 years. That year the
Round Oak
base burner was put on the market with new additional flue heating surface, giving 42 per cent more efficiency than its nearest competitor. Since then the other fellows have
been scrambling might
ily to catch up, but
they are a long way in
the rear. Let us show you the good points in this wonderful heater, thereby proving our statements to be true.
