How it Was Played on the Major.


At an early hour yesterday morning while
waiting atthe depot in Portage City, Wis, a
huge game was played upon Major Mc1lrath,
of this city, member of the secret service
bureau. young woman rushed into the
waiting room and deposited parcel on
the seat beside the Major. She seemed to
be in haste, and as he supposed had
brought in part of her baggage and went out
for the remainder. Time wore on, she did
not return, and to the Majors horror noise
was heard to issue from the parcel. He
sprang to his feet with an elias
ITCHY which nearly brought his
head to the ceiling and start
ed for the door. The major can face can
non, but the noise from that parcel fright
ened him. Luckily he found two ladies Just
arriving to take the train, and, crimson with
bushes, he asked them to investigate
the contents of the bundle
while he walked out and leaned
against the dark side of the water tank. The
ladies found that the bundle contained a
new born infant, alive and healthy, but ap-
parently SO recent an arrival as to be UNI
ware of the necessity of clothing.
aThe services of the station agent
were called into requisition, and he,
after some difficulty, obtained proper at
tendance for the infant. The major, in his
excitement, bought nursing bottle and
pail of buttermilk and presented them to
the kind hearted agent, and at the time the
train left both the child and buttermilk were
doing as well as could be expected under the
circumstances. The major declares that he
will never sit by deserted parcel again.

GOING TO BE GRANGERS.

A number of the young men of the city
are leaving to locate farms along the lines
of the many railroads leading into st. Paul,
the great railroad centre of the Northwest.
The different colonization societies are do
ing splendid business for the State, and
in the different counties and townships.
many young men have opened farms,
rolled up their sleeves and gone
to work. These are in earnest and will
prove valuable acquisition to the agricul-
tural interests of the State.
There is, however, another class who, with
no idea of permanently settling on the land,
are, under the excitement, trying to secure
tracts for the purposes of speculation. This
will shut out actual settlers and do injury to
the State, rather than good. The railroads
are extremely liberal in transporting parties
in search of lands, at half fare, and many
are taking advantage of this iberality. We
would suggest an improvement, that the
roads take all out to the imperial domain
free of charge, but charge every one return
ing double fare. And then if our visitors,
the tramps, could be induced to join the
granger army and become useful and good
citizens, what happy people we would be.

Why not "give the old man chance?''
There seems to be an evident Willingness on
the part of the public to convict Bishop Nc
Coskrey of scandalous conduct without
judge or jury. It must be admitted that
the case looks unfavorable for the
Bishop on its face, but he has not yet
been heard. Sometimes mans defense
alters the aspect of an accusation. In
Beecher's case it did not help him in reality,
save in the way of a general denial, but he
was entitled to that. The difference be-
tween Beecher and McCoskrey is
that the former stands convicted on
his own evidence, while McCoskrey
has yet to be heard. Cast Tilton, Elizabeth,
Moulton and all hands into the sea- and
Beecher still stands out as guilty according
to his own utterances No innocent man
would ever have humbled himself before
Tilton as he did before his God. McCoskrey
has not appeared before the world as self
confessed villain, and as a mattersof fair
play he should not be too hastily condemned.

| gallon, and by all consumers was much pre-.
ferred to the New Orleans or any other syrup
hitherto used in this city. The syrup is Of
bright, light amber color, and the sugar
is of much lighter brown or amber colo1
than any unre6ned sugar that is made from
the common sugar cane, and on account Of
this peculiar color of thu syrup and sugar
Messrs. Kenny and Miller, the pioneer intro.
ducers of the culture of this cane in Mime
sofa, have taken the privilege, that properly
belongs to them, and named it very appro-
priately, amber cane.
The sugar produced from this cane is
exceedingly dry, and crystalizes on the
application of heat sooner than sugar from
common sugar cane, all the resi- dual moist
ure or molasses after boiling readily drain
ing or evaporatins on the sugar being ex-
posed to the atmosphere. This sugar is said
by all who have tested and used it to be
equal, if not superior to any other brown
sugar in use, and parties dealing in the ar
ticle say that they readily sold all that was
supplied them at extra prices, and could
have sold an almost unlimited quantity had
it been produced.
Messrs. Kenny and Miller say this amber
cane can be cultivated with but very little
more labor than corn, and grows and ma
lures finely in our soil and climate, and that
they and others intend, this year, to raise
large crops Of sugar cane instead of wheat
or any other farm products. It is also I'M
derstood that Mr.. D. Morrison, of Hennepin
county, has planted forty acres with amber
cane, he being convinced that it will prove
to be the most profitable crop that Minnesota
farmers can plant and cultivate, as fair or
binary crop of cane will yield gross product
of from one hundred to a hundred and
twenty dollars per acre, whereas fair crop
of wheat will at the present prices yield only
some twenty-fv dollars gross product per
acre.
Undoubtedly, if these experiments
in cane culture shall prove successful, the
business will increase and expand with gigan-
tic strides, and although it is estimated that
the present home consumption of molasses,
syrups and sugars exceeds two million dol
lars, home production will soon supply that,
with much larger surplus for expectation
to othersS States and countries, that may not
be so fortunate in climate and soil as s:the
star of the North.''
If it shall be, that besides being the finest
wheat growing State in the Union, Mime
sofa. at the head of navigation of the Mis-
sissippi river, is also to become successful
rival, if not a surprising competitor of
Louisiana at the mouth of the river, as
sugar growing State, it will almost justify
the hope and confidence that our State, with
its unbounded resources and magic like pro-
gress, will very soon, in the near future, be
able to produce and develop, within her own
limits, all that either necessity or luxury
shall wish or require.

MINNESOTA SUGAR.

There has been great deal of testing
about Jay Cooks "banana belt'' and Mime
sofa sorgum, but it is now pretty well estab-
lished that our otherwise so much favored
State is to become an important field for the
successful culture of new species of sugar
cane
Several years ago, gentleman from the
United States, while at Paris, France, OBJ
tanned some seed of a peculiar sort of cane,
that had been brought there from China,
which seed, on his return, he planted in this
country, and found that the soil and climate
were favorable to the growth of the plant,
and that on its maturity it yields copious
quantity of rich saccharine juice, which,
when manufactured, produced an extremely
large quantity of molasses, syrup, or sugar,
as compared with similar products of the
ordinary sugar cane, and that they all were
OF surprisingly fine quality. He noticed,
however, that one cane stalk, in very strik-
ing and noticeable degree outgrew all it's
fellows, and ripened and matured to the ut
most and most satisfactory perfection. The
juice of this stalk he separately pressed, and
found that the resulting syrup and sugar far
surpassed that from any of the rest. Ac-
cordingly, he saved the seed of that particular
stalk, and in few years succeeded in raising
large quantities of such cane, which proved
to be a superior, if not different, species of
cane from the rest.
Messrs. Kenny and Miller, of Rice county,
IN this State, received some of this seed
from which they last year reared an exceed
1ngly fine crop of cane, that yielded some
l5O gallons of syrup to the acre, which was
readily sold in this city at 80 cents per

THE GREENBACK.
What IL Meant by Resumption.
GNou VnrE T;

new 1Ork lines.
The act of January IA, 1875, declares that
on and after January l, 1879, the secretary
of the treasury s'shall redeem in coin the
United States legal tender notes then out
standing, on their presentation for redemp-
ton at the Office of the assistant treasurer of
the United States in the city of New York,
in sums of not less than $780, Now, what
is the meaning of sredeem?'' There ought
to be no doubt about it. It is q word in
common use in connection with financial
operations. The obvious intent and pur-
pose Ut the law is to have the outstanding
notes paid, and note paid is SO much
OF debt discharged. Henceforth it
IS good for nothing but to be destroyed. Mr..
sherman was the author of the resumption
act, and ought to know what it means. and
IN 1915 ne did know, but he has found oc-
caslon since to take a different view of it,
But ne connot put meaning upon it which
its language will not bear or import into it
the meaning of preceding statutes which had
an altogether different purpose. No doubt,
legal tender notes returned into the treas
ury'' during their legal existence may be
paid out again, but after January l, 1879, if
they are presented for redemption and re-
deemed in coin, they are henceforth dead.
and there is no authority for resusitating
them.
Redemption of the government notes is paw
ment. The treasury department is not q
bank of issue, which has suspended on its
notes for time and is about to resume, It
is an agency of the government for the man
agement of its fiscal affairs, and among it's
duties is the payment of the National in
debtedness sit falls due. The greenback
notes are declared by law due and PAYABLE
on demand after January l, 1879. That is
what the resumption act means, and it can
be made to mean nothing else. But will
the treasury be prepared to pay all the notes
that are presented; and, if so, will their with
drawal from circulation cause disturbance?
This is serious question, and the
present law does not, perhaps, sufficiently
provide for the contingencies which it sue-
gests. The notes, when redeemable, will be
at par inevitably. Their withdrawal should
be, and probable would be, very gradual, so
as to permit their place to be taken by coin,
or certificates representing coin, not before
IN circulation. AS fast as the government
retreated from the field with its currency.
commerce should be able to take possession
of the ground and prevent any abrupt tran
sition. Whether this is to be effected by the
law as it stands may be question, but we
should not play fast and loose with the first
principles of finance by first paying notes
and then paying them out again and calling
them money.

a Marriage in a Liyery Stable.

The Dayton, Ohio, Journal, few days
ago, had the following account of the runa-
way and novel marriage of Cincinnati
couple:
Two young people arrived on an afternoon
train in the city yesterday. They walked
hurriedly up Ludlow street, and, stopping at
Fourth, they turned to Mummas livery sta
BILE and inquired of the proprietor if they
could have horse and buggy for a few
hours. He assured them that vehicle was
at their disposal.
The young man seemed somewhat fnrried
and in doubt. After looking at the lady a
moment he turned to Mr.. Mumma and in
quired: rather falteringly:
"You haven't got any place here where we
can get married, have you?''
Somewhat taken aback, Mr.. Mumma
his head, and replied:
that can fix up for you in three minutes.
It's carpeted. got a sofa in it, and lots of
pictures better looking place than many
you'll fnd.''
''That will do splendidly,' said the young
man. "Can you get us minister?''
"In five minutes said Mr. Mumma.
'Well, I'll 60 get license, and, my dear"
said he to the lady, lyon remain here till 1
return
In ten minutes the young man was back
with his license. Mr.. Mumma was at hand
with Rev. w. J. Shuey, and in five minutes
John Henry Gibbard and Frank Bancroft
were man and wife.
The young man drew sigh of relief,
looked at the lady, and, paying no attention
to those about him, put his arms around her
and imprinted fond kiss on her tips, that
was returned as fondly, and whispered in
her ear, "safe, darling"
Would you like to have marriage certi-
fcate?" asked the minister.
ooh, no; we DOM care for that so long as
we're married. Do we, Frankie?''
The lady nodded acquiescently.
CHOW we want to ride about for an hour,
but to be back in time for the Cincinnati
train.''
Here's your buggy said Mr.. Mumma.
They returned in an hour, and left on the
train at the Union depot bound for Cincin-
natl. The last words they were heard to
utter, as he Rugged her affectionately to his
side, were:
We're safe. now, frankie and she
