honored and Disgraceful Course.

Ever since John Calvin burned Servetus,
with green wood, at the stake, history has been
repeating itself in the shape of fresh displays
J OF intolerance. Whenever any cause is unten-
able, whenever the supporters of man know
that he cannot bear exposure, the coward S
game of rowdyism and violence is called into
requisition. Mr.. Washburn's guilt has been
overwhelmingly proved by the GLOBE, but
when MIR. DonnelIy visited Minneapolis to
face the ring champion and ring candidate his
cowardly hackers determined on preventing
free speech.
Tom King, brother of the notorious Bill
King, accordingly went to the meeting as the
ring leader of the gang of rowdies. He was
provided with quill hisser, which prolongs
and increases the sound, and locating himself
near the stage. took the lead in kissing. His
ro~dyism was SO indecent that Anthony
Kelly and D. NJ. Gilmore, who sat near by
repeatedly rebnked him, but without avail.
Mr.. I. @. seeley, prominent member of the
Y. IL. O. A.. occupied position in the rear of
the hall, and acted as the leader of the rowdies
IN that section, while Loren Fletcher took a
hand in by the door. Fletcher was soon
squelched by Dick Dunnington's threat to
| throw him down stairs. These were some of
the leading spirits of the Washburn gang which
disgraced Minneapolis Saturday night.

The Mind Reader.

1t Is not easy to draw an audience at the Opera
house on Sabbath unless it is for a religious
meeting or sacred concert, and last night
Brown, tho mind reader. realized the fact.
There were not more than 200 present to wit
ness the efforts of the mind reader.' The
performance consisted of the following: While
Brown was blindfolded gentleman selected
from the audience by committee placed an
article IN gentleman's hand (Mr. Monfort's).
MIR. Brown, still bindfolded took the gentle
mans hand and walked Immediately TO M
Monfert and took the article from his grasp.
He next, blindfolded, led gentleman to the
person in the audience he was think
ing about. Next he tried by touch
ing letters hung across the stage
to give the initials Of naSe thought Of by
one Of the audience; this be failed in. Get
ting another subject he tried again, and after
a long time succeeded in giving the two initials
after several guesses or trials. He then ner-
formed three well-known so-called spiritualism
tricks. He next locatedthe pain in a gentleman's
neck within six or eight inches, after pro-
tracted trial. He completely failed in the next
attempt The last operation was similar to the
second. With the hand of gentleman clasped
IN his he walked among the audience and re-
turned to the stage, took off the bandage from
his eyes, and then went to the man whom the
gentleman had thought of-only he went to
the wrong man-it was the next one to him.
The spiritualist tricks have been exposed here
scores of times, and is So hard to believe the
other phenomena" could puzzle the scientists

WHITE BEAR, Nov. 3.-This community is
bowed down with grief by the near approach
ing death of an esteemed neighbor and fellow
citizen, James R. Clewitt, Esq. Mr. Clewitt is
truly an old settler. He came to Minnesota in
1880, one year before the coming of Norman
w. Kitson, whose co1nrade and intimate associ-
ate he was in business, in travels, and in perils
for many years following, even in the last few
years being identified with Mr.. Kitson's Red
River navigation enterprises, and from which
he has but recently returned home to die. Mr..
Clewitt is 68 years of age, and although scarce
ly ever sick day in his life, recently con-
tracted the typhoid pneumonia, and from
which he is about at this moment to start on
the journey across the dark river. He may live
until midnight but certainly not longer His
little white cottage here IN which, and the vi
cinity, he has lived for nearly thirty yeyrs, is
filled with anxious kinfolks and friends, his
wife, sons and daughters bowed down with
poignant grief.
LATER-Mr. Clewitt breathed his last at 7:l5
o'clock this evening. The funeral will take
place from the Episcopal church here on Tues
day morning at o'clock.

Editor Lake City Sentinel:
We are credibly informed that h. B. Strait.

is using his influence with the officers of the
local land offices in this State in behalf of GER
tain parties to procure the presumption of the
claims upon which they have filed but upon
which they have never made residence or
lived day. So far as we have learned these
benehciaries of Mr.. Straits kindness are all
Democrats, and the only consideration de-
manded by him is that they cast their votes
and use their influence for him at the coming
election.
The parties who propose to secure their lands
by these fraudulent transactions will do well
to bear IN mind that the proving up and nav
ing Tor them does not always secure o good
title, as any future bona fde settlers nnon
them can get their entries cancelled and obtain
patents therefor, in which event Mr.. Straits
professed kindness will prove curse.
If Mr.. Straits friends have any doubt
about the correctness of these charges we
would refer them, among others, to S. B.
Dilley, of Lake City. Mr.. Dlley is Re-
publican and as he is supposed to be solid
for Strait he is allowed to make his pre-
emption in legal way. It doesn't always
pay to be Republican. Sometimes the
Democrats obtain the best layout.
