ROCHESTER,, July Our citizens did not
celebrate yesterday, so at A. M. found your
correspondent in company with seventy-five
others to join an excursion up to Lake
Pepin. The exodus from the city was large
to different places, many going to tho races
at Owatonna and other places. Our number
swelled to nearly 200 when we reached Wi
mona, and with 600 others started at 500 on
trip of about sixty miles up the river on
the commodious steamer Arkansas, Capt. u.
Mcdonald. And here let me say that if any
of the inland towns contemplate similar trip
include Capt. Mcdonald, for q more careful
captain and pilot cannot be found on the
river. Passing Fountain City, Minnieska,
Alma, the grand encampment or Indian
council grounds and the Lions head were
pointed out to us by the pilot.
We reached the lake at about p. NJ, and
after ride of ten miles started on our return
with Miss Elmer at the helm. The Winona
cornet band furnished music at intervals dur
ing the trip. We reached Winona at II
O'Clock VI, and on the whole it was most

Il False Alarm.

To the Editor of the Globe.
The Fourth of July, 1878, is likely to be
well remembered by the citizens of Owa-
tonna for the rest of their natural lives. He
had just fallen asleep, when he was awoke by
the sound of bell. Thinking of nothing
less than a fire as the cause, he hastily donned
his garments, and telling his wife he was 60
ing to the fire, was soon speeding, hot foot,
to the scene. The cool midnight air, how
ever, and a half mile run, impressed upon
his mind the firm conviction that he was
badly sold, and that this was the eve of the
birthday of our liberty and that the citizens
we're ushering it in in the good old style.
Meanwhile his better half, more asleep than
awake, could imagine nothing less
than regular Indian massacre as
the cause of this bell ringing and gun
firing and so impressed was she with the I'M
told honors implied by such an event, that she
fled precipitously across the tomatoes
and through the gooseberry bushes,
to warn the neighborhood of their
impending doom. The denouement
may be safely left to the readers
Imagination. Weare, however, glad to be
able to state that this lady, although much
shaken by the fright, is likely to recover, and
that her hair is still where it grew, and of its
| natural color.

Several of those composing the list were
wounded great many years ago, and have
suffered much while engaged in active ser

tinction is Col. Pitcher, who made for him
self good record during the war of the re-
bellion. Lieut.. Braden was wounded in the
fight with the Sioux Indians at the time of
the Custer massacre, and has been incapaci-
tated for duty most of the time since. He
belongs to the famous 7th cavalry, and has
several times distinguished himself by the ex-
hibition of good fighting qualities. The
others are scarcely less deserving of com.
mendation and credit for bravery and faith.

OwAToNNA, July 4, 1878.-Patriotic pow
der is exploding in every direction here this
morning. Long before daylight, anvils were
planted in commanding positions, and the
bombarding of the city was begun. A hot
fusilade was kept up for four mortal hours,
at which time the enemy ran out of powder
and breath. Soon after, the bands
began to play the dead march
of Saul, and the ragamuffins
made their appearance. They were sorry
looking set. They brought to mind the last
tribe of Israel or the last loses of summer.
The rags were not numerous but they we're
woleful. They are now on their way to the
Ho y Land. The fire companies are parad-
ing, and general jollifcation is going on all
around.
On the race track early this morning
some fine speeding was INDUCED in, and quite
alarge number of people were out to witness
the exhibition. The surrounding country is
pouring its population into the town, and the
ruralists have taken possession of the streets
and have formed solid squares on the cor
ners. The day is warm, bright and beauti-
full, and lemonade flows like thousand little
rivers. The Arnold house last night was full
of guests from basement to garnet. Every
available spot was utilized. Half hundred
cots were made up in the parlor, halls, din
ing-room, Office and other places, that none
should go away for the want of rest.
All are on a tiptoe of expectation about
the races to-day. The champions are
to go this aftern ,on and spec
ulation runs high as to the result.
The purses are quite large, and the winners
get their money on the spot, without detail
cation or discount Never were races better
managed, and the association certainly de-
serve more than mere compliment. There
is a spirit of honor and liberal1ty OH the
part of the members that is quite unlocked
for on occasions of this character. The
victors walk up to the judges stand
at the conclusion of each race,
pocket their greenbacks and stalk
off with broad grin of satisfaction. The
officers of the association are H. Murray,
PRESIDENT G. W. Caward, treasurer, and F.
Murray, secretary. The stockholders and
directors are some of the most prominent
ana influential citizens of Owatonna.

LONDON, July 5.-The Columbus, who
an American crew in England, are the heroes
of Henley. The superb form they have
shown the past few days surprised even
their best friends. At the start for the final
heat of the Visitors challenge emp to-day
the Columbia crew dipped their oars first
and took the lead running tremendous
stroke, and at Fawley Court boat house were
length ahead Of the HEREFORD boat. Near
ing Rementam the Hertfords being in
structed from the shore, spurted and reduc-
ed the Columbia's lead to half length, but
on reaching Rementam farm
house the Golumbias increased their
speed again, improved their
position and soon were able to take the
Hertford's water the same as the day before,
Notwithstanding the Hertford' s frantic efforts
to prevent it. The Hertford's only hope
now was to catch the Columbia boat by
touching it and thus claim foul, the Co.
lumbia boat being out of its own water.
Goodwin perceived the danger and called on
his men for further squirt, and they an
swered with tremendous burst of speed
which sent them ahead fully two lengths and
half. The speed was so gre at that it com.
pletely exhausted the Hertfords, whose bow
dropped his oar almost fainting. The
others were also completely pumped and
the boat, not being steered, ran ashore. the
Couambias finishing the course amidst ring
ing cheers from the shore in eight minutes

GREEK QUESTION sETT1m.:

BERLIN, July 5.-The Greek question was
settled In the congress to-day. Asolution
was passed that congress invites the Porte to
come to an understanding with Greece for
the rectifcation of her frontiers, and is of
opinion that the line should be from the
valley of Salambria, on the Egean sea, to
the mouth of Kalamas river, opposite Corfu.
In the event of difficulties arising in the ne
gotiations, the powers are ready to render
their good Offices as mediators.
LONDON, July 6.-In the ratification of the
Greek frontier question, it is understood the
line includes Larissa.
Berlin despatch states it is certain the
powers by offering mediation mean that the
Invitation shall not mean q dead letter.
France and Italy warmly supported the
-.samltted- he had with difficulty
been induced to accept even that
moderate proposal. As the precise boundary
indicated therein seemed to limit the SOW
ereign will of the Porte, he was unable to
accede to any demands amounting to a
division of Turkey, Epirus and Thessaly not
being in chronic state of anarchy like
Bosnia. The Greeks are profoundly disap-
pointed at the decision of the Congress.
Turkey had privately declared she would go
to war with Greece rather than cede the two
provinces.
Saturdays sitting, in which the questions
of Batoum and Armenia are to be discussed,
will virtually end the congress. The remain
ing proceedings, principally formal, will
probably last till Thursday.
