SUDDEN DEATH.
Mrs. J. G. Lacey Dies of apoplexy

Mrs. j. G. Lacey Dies of apoplexy
Last night about o'clock Mr.. and Mrs.
J.. G. Lacey started from their home at 226
South First St. for the purpose of being
initiated into the order of Good Templars.
Arriving at the hall at 1O8 South Washing
ton Ave.. they started up stairs and at the
head of the first fight and directly in front
of the Office of DR.. U. p. Thomas, Mrs.
Lacy fell to the floor and Immediately ex-
PRED.
She was taken into the Office of the doc
tor and every means taken to restore her but
the vital spark had fed forever.
visit to the home of the unfortunate
lady developed the fact that she was perfect
ly well before leaving home; that she for
merly suffered from heart disease and
phthysic, but more recently had much inn
proved in health.
The physicians pronounced it case of
apoplexy. She was very large woman,
weighing two hundred and nine pounds, and
was, at the time of her death, forty mine
years old.

Some of our contemporaries are indulging
their wit at the expense of the stewed
prunes which form staple article of "lunch
at the White House." Right at that point we
rise to question of privilege: The de facto
President and his affairs of public policy are
one thing, and the plain, unassuming domes-
tic customs of Mrs. Lucy Hayes are another.
The stewed prunes are an item in the gener-
al system of economy and true domestic
simplicity which Mrs. Hayes has introduced
into the culinary policy Of the Executive
Mansion. They cheer, but do not inebriate.
They afford aliment. We do not think they
form proper subject for the sneers of a
licentious press. We are not in any sense of
the word the supporter of or apologist for the
de facto President, or his policies Of Admins
tration. But when the question turns on
Mrs Hayes management of the domestic
concerns of the White House, viewed simply
as the representative American home, then
we are an organ in the most comprehensive
sense, of the term. We support Mrs. Hayes
domestic administration of the White House.
Whatever may be said of the rest of the de
.tacto regime, that feature of it is simply be-
yond criticism in all that goes to make the
name of home sacred or the title of American
| women noble.

At THE STATION.

A Scene that is of almost Daily Occurrence.
''If you please, your honor, can you give
me bit of lunch and place to sleep for
the night?'' The question is asked of Capt.
Berry at the police station, in a subdued and
plaintive voice, by Thomas Farley.
ssCertainly, Thomas is the reply, eff you
have nowhere else to co.
The lunch is furnished and eaten, and
Thomas goes thankfully to the grated cell
and iron bedstead, which to him mean vast
and comparative comfort, compared with
the cold and snow laden blasts of the open
air.
After half an hours absence Thomas again
makes his appearance people are not yet
locked into cells in this community for the
terrible crime of poverty, and in the same
weak, fate-conquered voice says:
eyer honor, can't you lock the cell door on
me, and prefer charge of vagrancy against
me in the court tomorrow, and have me
sent back to the county Jail. can find no
work, and there is enough at the Jail to keep
me from freezing and starving until the
winter is over!''
Only one example out of scores passing
under the eyes of the police. Thomas was
not drunk, nor had he been drinking; he was
not ak-thief, nor a gambler, nor a
scoundrel of any grade or kind
only poor spiritless fellow whom
hard luck and misfortune had scourged un-
til all manly energy were beaten out of him
Incarceration in the dreadful "lock-up" had
eased to be disgrace: while s'thirty days in
the county Jail" had come to be the alpha
and omega of human aspiration and ambi
bition.
Unfortunate Thomas Farley And still
the grist comes to the mill that is grinding
out such poor broken wrecks of humanity al
you. What mighty engines are hunger ane

Visiting the Prison.

The Legislative committee, consisting of
Senators Waldron, Bonniwell, Goodrich,
McNelly, Mealy, Doran and Hersey, and Rep
resentatiyes Fulton, Edison, Johnson, Kee
nan, Lutz, Buffum and Reaney, were over
here yesterday, and made there annual in
spection. The gentlemen all appeared de-
lighted with their visit, and are well pleased
with the management of the institution under
Warden Reed. They partook of substan-
tial dinner, consisting of roast beef and pork
and beans, to which they did ample Justice:
SO much SO, that when the party stopped at
the mammoth elevator, which is capable of
hosting sixty hundred pounds, it refused to
ascend, owing to the enormous
load (of beans) it had aboard and not until
Bonniwell Invested himself of that hat and
cane did it proceed, otherwise everything
passed off pleasantly, and at 4;30 p. m. the
party got aboard the cars, and homeward the
weary lawmakers wendell their way.
The party appeared quite at home in this
institution, and Judging from the manner
that they treated and were treated by the in
mates, it would be appropriate to quote what
Rand wrote to the Youngers, viz "a fellow

Prof. Tousley is opposed to holding school

The street railway company yesterday

Milford & Marchant, wood dealers, will

The street railway labored under the bur-

we're running with two horses and on half
time during most of the day, as the snow
blockade was too much for their regular
trips.
! There was rumor on the street yesterday
that a little boy named John Lerrin had
been kicked to death by larger boy. A
GLOBE reporter traced the rumor to the
house of the little fellow, and learned that
he had died from pneumonia.
Lumbermen looked happy and contented

Kindness of Gen. Sherman.
[St. Louis Republican.

Gen. Sherman is very kind in furnishing
the ex-commissioner of Indian affairs, Smith,
with the certificate of good character which
the ex-commissioner asked of him. Gen.
Sherman is always kind; and has spoken
good words of much worse men than ex-
Commissioner Smith, who were in trouble.
But he doesn't know everything. Mr.. Schurz
found that the administration in the Indian
bureau under Smith was very bad and his
duty required him to say SO, even while care
fully forbearing to impute to the e1-commis-
sioner anything worse than easy going igno-
rance of the irregularities of his subordinates.
If the Indian bureau is to be thoroughly
oyerhauled and renovated, somebody must
be hurt; but this is no reason for arresting
the reform.

Solution. of the Tert Book Question il, otter
Tail County.
Editor Of the DAILY GLOBE.
The Board of County Commissioners in
this county appointed committee to ascer-
tain on what terms series of good and ac-
ceptable books could be had. A publishing
house was found that entered into written
agreement to sell at wholesale prices to
dealers in different parts of the county for
the convenience of the people.
The books are sent to the dealers, with
freight prepaid.
Dealers add 10 per cent. to the cost price
to pay them for their trouble in handling
and the books are sold directly to consumers
for cash. Any district in the county
preferring to buy directly from the publish
ers can purchase at the same wholesale
rates, freight prepaid, and thus save the ten
per cent. paid dealers for buying and hand
ling the books.
Arrangements are thus made for supplying
superior quality of books on very favora-
BILE terms, with which the people of the
county are perfectly satisfied.
These books have already been introduced
into the schools in the county having winter
terms. Books that have been in use are
taken in exchange for new books of the same
grade at half the price of such new books.
While the publishers agree to sell at
these rates for any desired length of time
the people are under no penalties or obliga-
tions to continue the arrangement longer
than they deem it their interest 80 to do.
The practical workings of this arrange.
ment are already made manifest in the in.
creased prosperity of the schools adopting it
as it affords cheap and convenient plan Of
obtaining full list of text books needed in
our rural schools, and establishing the great
desideratum, uniformity.

The Midland Railroad.
[Wabashaw Herald.7

This is not the first time that commune
ties and railroad corporations have got into
trouble, and while we deplore the present
condition of affairs, there is no use in shut
ting our eyes to the unfortunate circumstan-
ces that have occasioned them. Wabashaw
fully realized the necessity of this road not
only for her own prosperity but for the good
of every town on the line. She did her part
and trusted to others to do their part. That
they have failed, is their misfortune and
0pt their crime. AS is generally known, ar
rangements were perfected that would have
resulted in the faithful performance on their
part of all promised, had not the supports
upon which they relied failed them. When
banks with capital of millions went
under, their expectations went with them and
the delay and the loss and the suffering has
followed. Under these circumstances Wa
bashaw expected that her sister towns which
went into this project for their own good
would take a philosophical view of it and
give all the accommodation necessary. We
rejoice, that with one or two exceptions,
they have done this. Had all done so, we
are assured that all would now have been
well. We trust that these will now and
without delay take not only the sober sec
ond thought, but such action as will again
place them right IN this matter, and enable
us all to make another and determined eff
fort to secure the road.
Nine. Ri:c- Kings Reception in Mil,camI;ee.
Milwaukee Sentinel.
The reception of Nine. Rive-King last
evening, by Mrs. L. F. Hodges, at her beau
tiful home on Ninth street, was an event to
be remembered. 1t was of an informal ma
ture Stationed at the door of the main en-
trance were men servants who ushered the
guests to the reception rooms on the second
floor, and then escorted them to the parlors
below. At the right of the doorway the
hostess of the evening occupied position
and extended a graceful greeting to the
guests as they successfully entered. Mrs
Hodges was very ably and gracefully assisted
by Miss Gertie Robinson, of Faribault, Min.
nesota, who is her guest, and will remain
during the winter. Each guest in turn was
then presented to Mrs. King. The ladies'
for the greater portion, wore visiting cos
| tunes with hats.
