CONGRESSMAN Foster NO,c Sees q Solid South

Congressman Foster, in accepting the Re-
publican nomination for Congress in the
Seventh Ohio district last week, said:

until they are gray, but you cannot escape
the discussion of this question SO long as a
solid South menaces the peace of the coun-

control of the country by the spirit and the
men who sought its destruction. My own
opinion is that there can be no peace-this

Especial Telegram to the Globe1
WHITE BEAR, Aug S.-The lawn in front of
the Williams house at White Bear lake was the
scene of an excitin contest between two scien-
tine croquet players yesterday. The match
had been ON the tapis for some days, and much
interest was manifested in it by lovers of the
game. AGA N. the ground was marked off
by cord stretched tightly four pegs, and
the wickets were placed in position, being ar
ranged IN u decidedly novel way so as to make
the game far more difficult than by the old ar
rangement.
The players banked for choice of shot and
it fell to the lot of the Florida champion to
lead off. The heat during the morn
ing was intense, and the players hung
their hanakerchiefs up to dry and sent
for fresh supply, and nearly exhausted mine
host Williams supply of lemons. At dinner
time the score stood two games and niue WICK
cts in favor of Florida, and New York hackers
looked doleful. After dinner, however, TIE
New York champion braced up and IN the hrst
game scored an easy victory, making nine
wickets more than his adversary He also won
the second and the games now being tie the
excitement grew intense. The last game was
holly contested first one and then the other
being ahead, and towards the close the players
were still more stirred to mighty deeds by the
fact that prepossessing young lady stood with
d beautiful button-hole bouquet In her hand
ready to award it to the victor. The game was
finally won by the New Yorker. and the flowers
pinned on his coat by fair hands. He declares

The Part Pretty 1ictress Played In 1t.
The ruined cashier makes no attempt to
deny or palliate his guilt and disclaims in
dignantly any intention of fleeing from JUS
tice This misfortune he said to re-
porter, "has befallen me least expected, and
do not want the public to think that an
other rascal is unearthed, for do say, and
with candor and truth, and my friends will
bear with me in it, that there was nothing

and brief and not a case of long duration,
as some think. l thought l was skillful

fortune has been the result.
Nevertheless, in reference to the temper
ance question the following may be men,
toned, and it comes from what appears to
be excellent authority: little more than
two years ago he became enalnored of
petite bright, aud pretty actress at the
Boylston museum, of which resort he be-
came frequenter. The charmer's name is
Ida G. Hastings, also known here as Stella
Lagrille. She was at that time about 10
years old, and possessed those gushing, con-
fiding little traits which acted as powerful
lever on the purse-strings as we'll as the
heart strings of the susceptible cashier. He
furnished her with an elegant wardrobe and
, made her numerous presents of jewelry and
, diamonds. His spenthrift habits were sc
palpabie that they were noticed by one Of
J the bank directors, George o. Carpenter
who at once caused thorough investigation
of the cashiers accounts to be made. Ger
tain irregularities were found, but, owing t.
, his previous spotless record, and on his pro
f mise to drop the acquaintance of the siren
: the matter was smoothed over. It is prob
: able that he kept his word, as the lady lef

Philadelphia theatre in the early summer o

It is hardly necessary to say much

Mr.. Cole, with his accustomed enter

Mr.. Bates, the male giant, is eight
feet high, lacking one-half inch, and
his better half, who appears along with
him, boasts exactly the same number
of feet of Womanhood. The couple
have appeared before hes majesty, who
was so much impressed by their APP
pearance that she presented his giant
ship with a magnificent gold watch,
valued at 81 1000. This gift. it need
hardly be said, is cherished by Mr..
Bates as his most valued possession,
