CURED at Waterville, Me. An Irish lad named
Gallagher died. and his parents decided to bury
him in Protestant cemetery. This was con-
sidered violation of the church rules by the
priest Rev. Father Halde, who publicly eau
toned his people in church not to attend the
funeral. This aroused James Cavanaugh, who
talked right out in meeting, saying that he
should go to the funeral, and that he consider
ed it no disgrace to do so. His pastor then
told him to shut his mouth and leave the
church, which he refused to do and lively
colloquy followed. Quiet was finally restored
and the service proceeded, but the next day
Father Halde complained of his parishoner for
disturbing a religious meeting and the case
was heard. both parties appearing as their own
counsel. Cavanaugh said that he had been
driven to protest against the priests oppres-
sion IN exacting money from poor parishioners;
but that the trouble about young Gallagher's
burial arose from Halde's refusal to visit the
dying boy without being paid money, and his
heartless words, "Your boy may die like dog"
when he didn't get his Zee; and that when the
youths sister begged to have some religious
service over his body at the church, she was
turned away with the assurance that her BROTH
er was in hell. Cavanaugh said this was only
an instance of the priests oppression, and he
had borne it as long as he could. Priest Halde
said that he had acted in the Gallagher case as
the bishop had directed him; he assessed his
people, who were generally poor, fifty cents
apiece month for his support and if this was
not paid, he did not consider himself under any
obligation to minister to them in sickness or to
attend their funerals. After considering the
matter for several days, the justice fined Cavan-

minneapolis Sees Her Manifest Destiny
and acknowledges the Corn.
minneapolis Tribune, Dec. 9Th
Did it ever occur to those of our citizens
who believe in great future for Minneap-
Oils, that no purely naangJacturing city
eDer attained to tie dignity Of metropo-
hs9 There are plenty of cities whose early
growth has been phenomenal; but unless
they were blessed with something beside a
great water power and abundant manufac-
turing facilities, they have stopped short of
any degree of greatness, and finally cut
only Insignificant figures in their struggle
for supremacy. What are now, for instance,
the Lowells, the Manchesters, the Law
rences, and the hundred other manufac-
turing cities in the country which
sprung up almost in q day, but which never
attained a population of more than 10000
souls? The answer is plain, and the expla-
nation easy. These cities are not railroad
centers, and hence have no facilities for Sc
curing commercial supremacy, and no city
without railroads radiating into the sur
rounding country in all directions, can or
ever dad achieve commercial supremacy.
Without these commercial advantages. allied
to manufacturing facilities, no manufactur-
ing city was ever known to become o.
metropolis. This is fact without ex-
ception in the history of cities, either in this
country or in Europe. 4AlI greot cities haze
great commercial and aazaattacturaaag inter-
ests allied. Let our readers get down their
maps Or their encyclopedias, and they will
find this fact without exception. The New
Yorks, Chicagos, st. Louises, Philadelphias
and Baltimores of this country, and the
great cities OF the old world, are both com
mercial and manufacturing centers.
The question for thinking citizens of Min
neapolis to answer, then, is this: Has Min
neapolis sufficient facilities for transporta-
ton into and out of her borders to give
her the advantage required to make her
that necessary desideratum of all great
cities-a commercial center? That ques-
ton can be answered without thought by
every citizen amongst us. She has roads
enough out of her borders, but not enough
into them. She IS the actual terminus of
two south and east roads, but of no north
west, northwest or northeast roads. This
being so, is it not PLAIN that these inlets
must be secured, in order to enable Mime
apolis to maintain the supremacy she has
achieved? Are these facilities not necessary
to make Minneapolis commercial center?
Without becoming commercial center, can
she nope to become great metropolis?
Certainly not, unless she expects to prove
herself an exception to the rule that prevails
and has prevailed in the case of great cities
ever since the world begun.

FUN FOR THE LAWYERS.

The Coming Term of the United States
Court-An Advance Copy of the Calendar
Furnished by the ssG1obe."
The United States circuit court conyenes
next Monday. Judges Dillon and Nelson
will preside. At least Judge Dillon is ex-
pected here, and nothing to the contrary has
been received. The business prepared for
the COURTS not in excess of other terms, but
is still sufficient to keep both court and at
torneys employed for some time. The clerk
of the court has been engaged for
several days in making up the
calendar for the term. It includes ffty-one
law cases; two criminal; three appealed cases
and thirty-fve equity cases; total of 1O1
cases. The GLOBE takes occasion to furnish
all these cases by title, court and docket
number in advance. so that the bar can have
the leisure of Sunday to contemplate the ex-
tent of work before them for the coming
week.

The state of expectation in which the public

by means of tap, and it remained out with

III. Rapief says he can burn ten lights in one
circuit; that his carbons will burn for ten hours;
that they can be easily renewed, and without
extinguishing the lights He further estimates
Its comparative cost with gas as less than a
third. His statements may be taken for what
they are worth; but, judging from what I ac-
tual!y saw IL the Times Office, should say the

The remarks of Earl Granville in the
House of Lords on Thursday evening e1-
hibit a degree of patriotism which, unfortu-
nately, partisans on this side of the Atlantic
can hardly appreciate. After criticising Sc
verely the policy of the government in I'M
dertaking the Anglo-Afghan war, the earl
declared:
However unnecessary the war may have been,
however much we may be convinced that you
have completely played into the hands of our
great rival, we urge this house to cooperate in
the strongest manner with the house of COM
mons to make most ample provision for the
sake OF our gallant troops.
This is the spirit that dominates the Brit
ish nation, from the hunblest subject to the
most distinguished peer. If an enterprise is
once undertaken, there is determination to
carry it through, no matter what the cost.
With such whole-souled patriotism, that
sinks craftsmanship into insignifcance, it is
no wonder that Great Britain moves forward
conquering and to conquer. Would that
America possessed some of the same inn
pulse.

The proposal of the House to reduce the
compensation of our foreign ministers will
not be apt to find favor in the sight of the
Senate. That body-and in fact a large
part of the people of the whole country-are
great sticklers for maintaining the dignity of
our representatives abroad. It is perhaps a
pardonable pride. If We compare the COM
pensation our ministers receive with that OF
ministers of similar rank from other
countries, it will not appear that the pay of
American ministers is excessive. Still, their
establishments might be maintained at less
cost, and as to the expediency of reducing it,
Congress must be the judge.

HE desperate battles fought in Afghan
istan are rather tame affairs when compared
with the conflicts that took place during our
civil war; The great victory won by Gen.
Roberts at Piewar cost the British force the
loss of but eighty men. Such engagements
in this country were scarcely mentioned. A
conflict was not regarded as battle in which
the loss on one side or the other did not run
up to among the hundreds and sometimes a
simple skirmish would cost the armies en-
gagged round thousand men. But they do
things differently over there. They are more
careful of human life, and do most Of their

BEAcoNsF1ELD's prediction in the House

of Cyprus would soon be recognized as one
of the most influential positions in the
British dominions, is in a fair way of being
verified. Advices from the island show that
every enterprise has been wonderfully stimu-
lated since the British occupation, and much
of the surplus capital of England is finding
employment there in developing the in
dastries of the territory. The people are
pleased with the change in their allegiance,
and are going to work with a right good will

THE CORNER.

People In Ne,v York Laughing at the Idea
of CoTnering the Wheat Crop.
New York Special (Dec. y to Chicago Tribune.
The Times says the story about James r.
Keene and RUFUS Hatch going to Chicago
with $1 100000 to Corner wheat, is atopic
of much merriment on the Produce Ex-
change. With the enormous crop harvested
this year, and the immense quantities con-
stantly arriving, it is regarded as an utter
impossibiity for any man or men to success
fully get up corner in grain. Dealers say
their Chicago conferres can furnish Keene
and his associates with all the wheat they
can pay for with cash, or as much borrowed
money as they can raise, and legitimate trade
will not be disarranged to an appreciable
extent. A temporary embarrassment
in special grades at special
times may be caused, but only
spectators who may be short of the market
will be hurt, and nobody cares whether they
are or not. The truth is that Keene & Co.
went heavily into an attempt to bull the
market on winter wheat, particularly No.
red for November delivery, but the newspa-
pers exposed their game before they had an
opportunity to unload, and they have now
on hand about as much of that kind of
wheat as they can manage. The present
purchases of spring wheat are for the pur-
pose of renewing the attempt to raise prices
on that kind, which is coming into market,
and thus afford the gamblers an opportunity
of slipping out of the trap they set for them
selves without too much loss. It is desper-
ate game, and the chances are all against its
success.
AS Frederick Luttjohn, who lives near
Faribault, was going home at night, having
his wife and one of his children

rible oaths and show of revolvers. The
villains went through his pockets, but find
ing no money, permitted him to go, theaten-
the affair. On the same evening, one hour
later, no doubt the same three highwaymen

robbed him, as already receuated iR these
