tunately no damage was done, and the run
Always were caught near the new market house.
Nellie Rice, the unfortunate victim to the
wiles of James Conley, who was committed a
few days SINCE was removed to the hospital BY
Officer Clouse yesterday. The case is peculiarly
sad from the fact that when the young girl
was being removed to the hospital her dissi-
pated mother was arrested on the charge of
| drunkenness.
An aged man with hair blanched as the driven
| snow, was found by officer Dowlan on Robert
street yesterday, beastly drunk. He was laying
| upon the pavement and was conveyed to the
| lock up in wagon. short time before his
| discovery he tried to pawn his coat for a drink
Of whisky with which to quench his Unsuitable
and damnable appetite for drink.

| of how all his wonderful tricks in rope tying
and spiritualism seances will take place at the
Opera House. Prof. George Everett, at the So
Hcitation of many citizens, has consented to
return to Saint Paul and give full exposure
| as to how they are done. Admission to all
parts of the house, including instructions, only
IS cents.
A farmer named Michael Keis was arraigned
at the municipal court yesterday morning,
charged with brutally beating his wife. He
confessed to the cowardly act, and alleged, in
extenuation, that it had been committed
during intoxication. The paltry excuse was
not entertained by the court, who assessed
| damages at $40 and costs, on payment of which
the wretch was discharged.
good audience was present at the Opera
House last evening to witness the second per-
Torrance of Nick Roberts Humpty Dumpty
troupe. Taken as a whole all present seemed
to EN- joy the performance, which is replete with
fun. matinee will be given this afternoon
at clock, and the season will close in the
evening. There will no doubt be good au-
diences at both performances.
James Flynn and John Coffey belong to that
genus of organic fungi commonly known as
dead beats. They tried to swindle the keeper
of the Arcade hotel out of board bill, but
| their racket was anticipated by Officer Dow
Ian, who arrested the men on the charge of
vagrancy. They were before Judge Flint on
yesterday, and were given fifteen minutes in
which to get outside of the city limits. They
| went with alacr1ty.
painful accident took place at Woodbury.,
Washington county, yesterday, resulting in Sc
! rious injuries to young man named Chancev
Carver, whose arm and wrist were badly man
gled by being caught in the wheel of a thresh-
machine. The rioht and wriet W
broken and it is feared that amputation will be
| necessary. The injured man was brought to
this city and after receiving proper medical
treatment he was taken to the hospital.
MIR. P. Tracy and J. Mcdonnell have put
$50 each for 14-hour heel and toe walk. The
same parties had a similar contest few weeks
since, Tracy winning. Considerable interest is
felt in the match by the friends of both par
! ties, as they are thought to be very evenly
matched, while each man has strong personal
following who think their man a little the
best. The walk will take place in Knauft's
hall, though the date has not yet been agreed
upon.
Old Hannah Walsh the incorrigible drunk.
ard, was run in yesterday afternoon by Officer
Clouse. The old dame was found hilariously
drunk at her daughters on Robert street, who
was none 10th to part from the company of
her mother. The daughter was sick, near her
cOnnnement, and Hannah Walsh was much of
nuisance in household on the verge of such
| an event. Matters were arranged by sending
Hannah to the lookup and her daughter to the
| hospital. is
| The first train of the seventeen hundred
| Montana cattle. now being rairoaded through
from Montana via the Northern Pacific and
! Chicago railroads, was being transferred, yes
| terday, at South Minneapolis. The GLOBE is
of the opinion that st. Paul
| should have facilities for trans
ferring cattle on a large scale, and not
| compel business to go elsewhere for the lack
OF facilities. But perhaps the GLOBE is mis-
taken. and that the proper way to build up a
city is to drive business away from it.
half demented creature named John Kel-
ly was arrested by officer Bahe yesterday after
noon on the roof of the United States express
building, corner of Third and Clark streets.
The prisoner was caught in the act of carrying
out the Pharisical device of blowing his horn
upon the house top, to the edifce of sundrv
small boys and thefnfnite disgust of all respect
able people in the particular neighborhood
where he happened to hold forth. He carried
with nm a brazen trumpet, upon which he
was won't to make the the most ear piercing
and ludicrous outcry. sThe trumpet was longer
IMAM the proverhial horn of Basham, and when
brought to the police court he outraged de-
cency by blowing the bazoo in the very temple
and arcanum of justice. The terrible toot
caused the clerk to fall from his chair and
nearly raised the roof off the building. The
nearing will take place this morning.
