Lerch, Hibbing, this afternoon. Guests from Vir- ginia include Mesdames Coates, Stebbins, Lamont, B. F. Smith and Malmgren and Mrs. F. G. Lerch, of Biwabik. Mr. and Mrs, Jos. Papick were guests at the home of Mr. and Fred Witte, Aurora, on Sunday last. Vivian Prince, Jr. left today for Duluth and other cities for a month's vacation trip. Mrs. Dr. More, of Eveleth, was hostess at a very handsome re- ception on Thursday afternoon, from three to six. Several Vir- ginia ladies were present, among them being Mesdames Lamont, B. F.

Phone No. 11. County Commissioner Mclnnis is in from Eveleth today, looking over court building grounds. E. M. Prindle, of Duluth, gen- eral 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 re- cently fell through owing to the tightness of financial backing, but which was meant in good faith and which cost the promot- ers a pretty penny in initial work. Geo. Lerch, Hibbing, was a visitor to the city Wednesday af- ternoon. This is a Misouri boy's defini- tion 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 defini- tion 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 im- provements at this point, was in the city Saturday. H. A. Sodergren, a former Vir- ginia druggist now located in Minneapolis, came up from the Twin Cities last evening for a brief visit and to look after property interests. R. R. Bailey, formerly of this city who is now located at North Yakima, was in the city AYednes- day and Thursday, stopping for a brief visit with Virginia friends while on the way to his old home at Platteville, Wis., where he had been called by the serious condi- tion of his aged mother, who suf- fers from dropsy. T. W. Lusk returned yesterday from a trip of three weeks through Western Canada, visiting at Winnipeg, Barrows and other points. Mrs. Lusk and children, who had been visiting with friends at Shoal Lake, returned home with him. Mrs. R. A. McLean spends sev- eral day as the guest of her sister, in Duluth.

"And now," said the lecturer, at the close of a discourse on theosophy, to which his audience had listened with the deepest at- tention, " in accordance with my uslual custom I shall extend to any person present who cares to do so the opportunity to ask what- ever 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 audi- ence, 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 motor- ists to make the first trip over the Crane Lake portage, on Sat- urday. 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 with- in about eight miles of the Cana- dian 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.

Kratze's, 408 Chestnut St. It would appear to even a dis- interested spectator that the hon- orable ( we speak advisedly) chief of police of Hibbing might have been in better business Saturday had he been attending to the du- ties for which he is paid in the west end village than he was in being the prime factor in a slug- ging 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 after- noon the visitors won the honors by a score of 6 to 0, Webster of the visiting team making a touch- down 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 in- eligible under the rules govern- ing the high school contests. This feeling was not altogether elim- inated 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 pro- fessor. The incident is one to be de- plored in more ways than one, as it will likely tend to effectu- ally stop any future games be- tween the contending teams, and also as it showed the Hibbing chief of police in a most unenvi- able 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 kick- ing 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.

Three hours of laughter inter- spersed 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 Win- ning Miss," has just closed a suc- cessful 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 Win- ning Miss" will long be remem- bered. In support of Bloom is Miss Alice Sher, comedienne, Miss Florence Morrison, prima donna, Mr. J. E. Coughlin, Mr. Jack Les- lie, 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. NORWEGIAN M. E. CHURCH. At the Norwegian M. E. Church, 320 Spruce street, services will be conducted Sunday next at 10:45 p. m.

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 com- petitor. 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. Virginia Hardware THE NEW ROUND OAK BASE BURNER Company COAL Furniture Storage Room, 205 So.
