How They Passed the Fourth at Lake
Minnetonka.
BY previous arrangement the semi-annual
meeting Of the State G. A. R. took place at
Lake Minnetonka on the Fourth, the posts
participating being from st. Paul, Minneapolis
Saltwater, Northfeld, Newport, Cottage Grove
and Shakopee with their friends. At ga. NJ.
of the day named, the Acker post, of this city,
joined by the posts from below and accom-
panied by the Northwestern band, took a
special train over the st. Paul & Pacific rail-
road consisting of ten crowded cars, for Min
neapolis, where the post of that city and what
seemed to be one half the population of Mime
apolis reinforced the party. Arrived at
the lake, the excursionists embarked in
four steamers, the specially-charted

ance. As the steamers plowed their way

and tempered the proverbial heat of the day,
while each boat load responded to the other,
and the strains of the band were waited above

found the post from Shakopee, and all pro-
in discussing dinner and the moving acct
dents by flood and feld,'' only ex-soldiers

Insulting Occupants of a Street Car.

On the night of the Fourth, job Koch,
who is represented as a "bad egg," and who
is not altogether unknown to police court
annals, boarded Wabashaw street car, which
was filled with ladies and had only one other
male occupant than himself. He persisted
in smoking, contrary to the rule, and, worse
still. commenced the free use of foul Ian
guage. The ladies we're indignant, and the
driver told him to desist or he would put
the unmannerly passenger out. To this
Koch paid no attention, but when the car
got on College avenue, the driver stopped
the vehicle and forcibly expelled Koch, while
the ladies screamed and fled in fear. Koch
struck the driver welt with his cane after
being driven out of the car. Early yesterday,
Koch visited the driver and paid him
$5 to have the matter hushed up,
and the intended prosecution
was abandoned. The public, however, ought
to have rights in this matter which are en-
titled to some degree of respect. If the pre-
cedent thus established is to be the rule of
governing the cases of all unmannerly fell
lows who freely insult lady street-car passen-
travel the better, unless protected by some
muscular specimen of male humanity, who
will take the law in his own hands, and
won't be seeking to be bribed by $5 bill
to keep the affair quiet. This whole affair
was an outrage of the most heinous stripe,
and the public will await with interest the
action of the street-car management in the
premises.

che productiveness of Minnesota Soil.

The ProductiyeneSS of Minnesota Soil.
The productiveness of Minnesota soil is
almost past finding out. Happening in at
the land Office of the st. Paul & Pacific
company yesterday. the GLOBE reporter met
MIR. L. B. Hodges, who is doing a large
amount of breaking in the vicinity of Nor
ris, on the main line. In answer to the in
quiry, Mr.. Hodges said all the crops along
that line were magnificent, promising
larger yield and better quality of small
grains than ever before produced in that
section. Barley, he said, would be ready to
harvest in g. few days, and wheat about the
25th of the month. During the
conversation. Mr.. Trott, land COM
missioner, told the following
as piece of good fortune to the party inter
ested, and which serves to show the produc-
tiveness of Minnesota. ga gentlemen whom
we will designate Mr.. B., of Litchfeld, when
he was engaged in business, also had wheat
farm short distance outside the town. Last
fall he was delayed in his harvesting until
the wheat was very ripe, SO that it shelled
badly when harvested. About this time the
hard times wave struck him, and he failed, so
that his wheat field remained uncultivated-
neither blowing or seeding having been done
for crop this season. And yet the field is
crowded with good growth of grain, and
good Judges estimate a yield of at least fifteen
bushels to the acre.
Mr.. Hodges, who always carries
photograph of George Washing
toms Ratchet on his person, who
had listened closely to Mr.. Trott's
story, with ''that reminds me- said s.that in
1866, when he was living in Olmsted conntv

Equalizing Matters in the Irish Way.

Equal1Zlng matters In the Irish way.
The recently reported scandal from Wash
ington, in which Congressman Acklen figured
SO disgracefully, and our own Gen. Rosser APP
peared as the hero of the occasion, has given
Puck-the funny illustrated paper of New
York, an opportunity for full-page repre-
sentation of the scene that is said to have
taken place, and the supposititious scene that
was supposed at one time might perhaps be-
come reality-a duel. The supposititious
scene represents Rosser and Acklen upon the
CORY field, armed cap-a-pie, the seconds
of each taking refuge, one
behind tree and the other
stump. Acklen is represented as puny
'slittle cuss," with pistol nearly as big as
himself. While Rosser is regular Goliah
in size, but objecting to the fight going
forward for the reason that his corporosity
offers to good mark for his opponent.
Thereupon Puck proposes to settle it in the
Irish way, by marking Acklen's size on Ros-
ser's ponderosity, the figure looking little
larger than good sized watch fob, "all hits

supposed to be considering this proposition.

THE HUMMEL ASSAULT.

Dollars.

An Effort Made to Settle the Matter for Ten
Dollars.
A GLOBE representative called again YES
terday upon Math. Hummell, who was as
saulted on the night of the Fourth by man
with slung shot. He was found to be so
far recovered as to give an account of the
affair of the previous evening, although I'M
able to be out of bed. He said three young
men, one being his subsequent assailant,
came into the saloon, ordered beer, drank it,
and after refusing to pay for the drinks,
left the place. Shortly afterward they re-
turned and demanded more beer. Hummel
| refused to serve them until they paid for
that previously obtained and paid in advance
for what they then called. The reply he re-
ceived was blow over the head with a cane
in the hands of one of the party, when a
boarder> interfered, and was, in turn,
assaulted, Hummel defending him
by pouring upon the roughs 8
pitcher full of water, the only weapon he
had. The three were then ordered from the
saloon, and it was when stepping up to close
the door that he was struck by the slung
shot by one of the party who came from be
hind the latticed screen near the entrance.
Yesterday morning, Hummel's daughter
Rose was attending the bar, when Charles
Hagggerty, ST., stepped in and asked for I
glass of beer. Rose informed him that he
father had been struck the night before, NJ
beer had been tapped, and she could no
serve him with the beverage he asked fol
He said he had heard of it, and inquired
she would know who struck her father. Sh
answered that she would, and gave de
scription of the sssailant, she having wit
messed the assault. He then confessed tina
it was his own son Charles who committed
the offence, and offered her $40 to hush th
matter up, This she refused, but took Has
gerty to her fathers room, where the sam
offer was renewed to him, which was simila
ly rejected, and Haggerty went away. Youn
Haggerty could not be found yesterday b
the police, but his father promised Cap
Clark to produce him before Judge Fiji
this morning.
DR.. Boardman said yesterday that Hun
mel was progressing favorably enough SO ia
but the extent of Hummel's injuries coul
scarcely be judged until after the lapse of
day or two, during which time there was
|. possibility of their developing into som
thing serious.
