There are lot of hoodlums out on Missis-
sippi street, of whom the people out there
complain bitterly. The young wantons are in
the habit Of stoning the houses, breaking win
dows and imperiling passers-by with their mis-
siles. The police are ordered to look out for
them.
Two young hoodlums, named McNamara and |
Kelly, fuller of benzine than brains, were
bursting and breaking down signs along Waba-
shaw street last night. Among others they de-
molished Booths, confectioner, No. Is. Their
jocularity and destructiveness was reported to
Officer Babe, but he failed to arrest either one
of them.

assist in beautifying these grounds, arrange
ments have been made for seeing all trees sent
in properly cared for. So send in your offer
ings, if you cannot give your own time to the
good cause.
In the enumeration to-day of the blessings |
calling for thankful Acknowledgements, the |
timely rain of yesterday should be especially !
remembered. Advces received show the rain
fall to have been general throughout the State,
every part being visited, and the southwestern
and western sections, probably in greater need
than other localities, receiving the most liberal
baptism.
For the first time this spring. ST. Paul and
the surrounding country was greeted yesterday
with liberal downfall of exhilerating and re-
juvenating rain. The continuous patter of the
| tiny drops was welcome music to grass, tree
| and budding flower; and the hitherto parched
| condition of vegetation was in doleful contrast
! to the bright green, almost exultant, appear
| ance of nature last nightfall.
The license record for the last week bears no
| material change since last week. To date 16S,
or $16,S00 have been received for liquor Ii
censes. Seventy-nine miscellaneous licenses
have been issued; % beer and butcher. This
| last number would indicate that the people of
st. Paul were eminently vegetarians; eight
butchers can hardly supply 50, coo people with
meat. The legal dog population with tax tags
number only 64, male and female.

| I. W. Webb has business horse for a
runaway, though Webb never knew it until
yesterday. The horse was left standing at the
corner of Third and Jackson street, for a mo-
ment, when for some unaccountable reason he
took it into his head to do little business on
his own hook. So off he started down Third
, street, and thorg h the street was filled with
passing teams. he safely piloted himself
through them all and ran to the Lake superio,
depot where he was stopped, without doing any
damage to himself or his rigging.

Henry Evers entered the municipal court and
swore out warrant for the arrest of Mrs.
Smell, on the charge of fourishing revolver

tions of a derogatory character respecting th'
character of the Ever's children. love feas

esting sensation.
