Reware OF Him.

The artificial fly spoken of in this paper
the other day has been put TO new use
The insect has a fine thread attached to
him, and can be easily secreted in the palm
of the hand. A stranger enters drug
store and calls for soda. As he receives
the glass he drop his artificial fly into
the froth, and il settles to the bottom.
When he has drained the glass he dis
covers the fly and raises row. The soda
water man is very sorry indeed, and can't
think of charging anything, and as he
draws the glass away to rinse it the fly
finds its old hiding. .place.-[Detroit Free

PILLSBURY THE FARMER'S ENEMY

PILLSBURY THE FARMER'S ENEMY
Every farmer who votes for John s. Pills,
bury should understand that he votes in
favor of being swindled. and he we'll deserves
to be. But for Gov. Pillsbury the farmers
would have been able to abolish the use of
the "swindling brass kettles in Minnesota.
We denoun3e the brass tester or kettle as
swindle because it is an easy device, in the
hands of dishonest man, for cheating in
weighing and grading wheat. This PROPOSE
ton is admitted and needs no argument.
The most that any friend of the brass kettle
claim is that it can be used honestly. It ia
universally conceded, by friend and foe
alike, that it is very susceptible to dishonest
manipulation.
The use of the brass kettle became SO out
rageously dishonest that the producing in
terest came to the legislature last winter and
asked protection. After much committee
work and numerous conferences of the farmer
members of the legislature, the so-called
Campbell bill was devised and introduced,
and passed both houses. It expressly
abolished the use of the brass-kettle by pro-
viding:
That no measure containing less than legal
half bushel shall be used in this State in the
grading Of wheat to ascertain the number of
pounds weight in measured bushel of the
same, in order to fix the grade of said wheat
but in every case where wheat is bought or sold
in this State, the number of pounds in bushel
shall be ascertained in filling said
half bushel measuae and weighing the same.
Penalties we're also prescribed for violat-
ing this act and all the safeguards possible
we're thrown abs1t it. The so-called Stacy
bill was also intnp1Dosa. This III not only

election. Kelly has few prophets in his
employ very few. These do not claim
his election to any great extent, but content
themselves by predicting the number of
votes he will receive, which in all cases is
sufficient to ensure the defeat of Robinson.
These political prophets, who flourish
everywhere-M Minnesota not excepted-have
very decided value to any party. In the
first place they contribute to getting out the
vote on election day. If they represent the
minority party they inspire hope of sue
cess, and thus lead the people to labor to
change the result. Without this hope
sometimes forlorn one-7a large minority
of the people would take no interest in po-
litical affairs, and as consequence the pub
lie in general would b. the sufferers. We
have no fault to find with the prophets. In
deed, the GLOBE ia not free from the imputa-
tion of having "tried its prentice hand'' at
the business on rare occasions, but with the
difference that 1t has always predicted Alright
The prophets have an important place to
fill, and they fill it we'll, for they furnish
half of the humor that resides in the political
profession. We feel like encouraging them
to persevere, for if they keep on throwing a
javelin at a mark they will undoubtedly hit
it some time. But we beg to be excused if
We refuse to take a great deal of stock in
what they predict. We prefer to wait for
the returns, and from them draw our deduc-
tons.

RE FUNDINt4 THE DERT.

It's reported from Washington, that Secre-
tary Sherman will, in his annual report, ask
authority of Congress to continue the re-
funding of the bonds of the Unied States
now outstanding, and to become due on and
before the LIST of July 1881. These bonds,
bearing five and six per cent. interest, amount
in the aggregate to 1912, 12l, 700, and Mr..
Sherman thinks he could refund them into
four per cents before the date of maturity,
and thus save the country considerable
amount of money.
This matter is worthy of the attention of
Congress. We have no doubt a saving in
interest eau be effected, Tut not by the plsn
pursued by Mr.. Sherman in the past. 1t
will be remembered that six per cent. bonds
we're called in and four per certs issued in
their s:ead three months before the interest
ceased, so that the holders were
enabled to draw ten per cent. inter:
est for that or longer time
on the amount of their investments. It will
be seen at glance that if such plan is
adopted in the funding of the remainder of
the bonds, the government would be re-
CURED to pay extra interest to the amount
of nearly eight million dollars, all of which
would pass into the hands of the favortes of
the secretary of the treasury. To avoid
such an NECESSARY outlay of money Con-
gress should prescribe that no four per cent.
bonds should be issued until the six and five
per cent. bonds are surrendered and the in
terest upon them ceases. The scandalous
transaction with the First National bank of
New York representing the syndicate must
not be repeated. It will be remembered that
this institution subscribed for block of
about hundred and fifty millions of four
per cent. bonds on the first of April last.
From that date it continued to draw inter-
est on that amount as we'll as on the six
per cent. bonds to like amount, although
the four per cents had not been removed
from the vaults of the treasury, and that on
the first of July. when payment of the sub
scription was due, Secretary Sherman ex-
tended the time till the LIST of October. By
this transaction the syndicate realized more
than million of dollars without the in
vestment of cent. It was little, if anv, re.
moved from downright robbery of the peo-
pie, and deserved, as it has received, univer-
sal condemnation.
The experience of the past proves that
there is no lack of investors for government
bonds. They are recognized as the best
class of investments all over the world, and
can be sold as fast as they can be issued.
There is no need of paying premium for
negotiating them certainly not as large a
premium as was paid for negotiating the
last series. Let the proper authority be
ngivensfor thsrefunding of the outstanding
bonds, but let guards against abuse of that
authority be established which even the Sec
rotary of the treasury will have to respect,

TALKING WITH TIE VIRGIN.
The I',post,re Of Freach Peasant Girl
TGxlignani's Messenger.[

The Inrposture Of a. French Peasant Girl.
[Gxlignani's Messenger
A curious trial for imposture has lust
taken place before the tribunal of correction
al police at Annecy. The defendant, JAG
queline Bosse, aged Is, was young farm
servant of Saint Jorioz, and appeared at the
bar wearing the picturesque costume of the
peasant girls of that part of Savoy. The
charge brought against her was that of
fraudulent practices to induce belief that
she was in direct communication with the
Virgin. One day in August last, the girl, on
returning home from minding sheep. in
formed her master that while with her flock
strange man had come out of wood and
given her to drink glass of liquor, which
looked like white wine; he then pointed out
to her light in tree, telling her that it was
an apparition of the Virgin. At the sight of
the vision she became terror stricken, she re-
lated, and ran to a neighboring farm. The
same man and same vision appeared to her
on following days, and the stranger on one
occasion told her that the Virgin wished her
to have chapel built on the spot where she
had appeared. The farmer at who's.
house the. girl had taken refuge had the
curiosity to climb into the tree, where he
found two empty backing boxes, in which
we're the remains of wicks and little oil.

The girl, nevertheless. continued to pretend
that the Virgin appeared to her, dressed ia
white with blue scarf, and even c1nversed
with her. News of this miracle got abroad,
and great numbers of persons accc mpanied
her to see the vision; many believed in it.
ana offered up prayers and sanu
hymns. They were never, h.wever.
favored with sight of the Virgin, although
they heard the replies given by her to JAG
queline. Even miracles were said to have
been performed by the girl. The excite
ment became 80 great that on the goth of
August about fifteen hundred persons were
present, waiting for the apparition. The po-
lice then interfered and arrested the girl,
who, on being closely pressed, confessed
that it was an imposture she bad carried
on in order that she might be received in
convent and treated as sanity person. She
had the gift of ventriloquism, and had thus
been able to carry on the pretended CONVEX
sations; she persisted, however, in her ac-
count of the strange man in the wood. The
girl was acquitted of the charge, and was or
dered to be kept in reformatory until her
twentieth year was accomplished.

The inquest on the remains of the late

ready appeared in the GLOBE, was resumed
at Coroner STEMS Office yesterday forenoon.
1t will be remembered that the inquest was
commenced last Saturday and continued on
account of the absence of q material witness

follows:

Insurance Trouble,

ST.. LOUIS, Oct. 27.-Insurance and profess
sional circles are good deal excited to-day by
the presentation TO Judge Wickham, of the
circuit court, by Thos. T. Tatum, attorney for
three policy holders Of the st. Louis Life In
court to order Silas Bent, receiver of said in
surance company, to bring suit against certain
persons named to recover money and property
wrongtul]y taken or received by them belong
ing to the 81. Louis Mutual Life Insurance
company. The application is backed by an
affidavit made by Frank J. Bowman, an at
to, ney, which alleges that in 1873 certain we'll
known citizens of this city formed
an association and entered into
company to wreck the st. Louis insurance
company in favor of the New York life insur-
ance company, but after taking initiative steps
in the scheme they found they could make more
money by turning it over t., the Mound CIV
Life. and therefore wrecked it in favor of that
company at an expense of many Thousand dol
lars pad to different individuals for their aid
or influence in the matter. One of the persons
referred to in the affidavit prominent laywe
at the bar, was present when application was
made and entered vigorous protest against it's
being granted by the court. Spirited speeches
made ON both sides, and Judge Wickman final.
ly ordered that the affidavit showed be filed,
and referred to Receiver Bent. --s....
Ine1e are no" suits pending against two or
three prominent citizens other than those men
toned in this affidavit brought by receiver
Bent to recover money alleged to have been
illegally paid t. them out Of funds belonging
to the st. Louis Mutual Life and this case
seems to have grown ont of the strong belief
and positive assertion that a number of per.
sons III this city have large sums IF money
which properly belong to this company. There
also seems to be pretty general desire, as we'll
as demand, by the public press that the causes
OF the failure of so many life insurance COM
panies within few years past should be fully
ventilated.

ment was made in the dispatch sent from here
