Lieut.. Gilbreath Acquitted.

Last Monday Lieut. E. G. Gilbreath was
arraigned before general court-martial at
department headquarters. His trial ended
Thursday, and the proceedings being placed
in Gen. Terry's hands for review, he gave
his decision yesterday. Capt. Gilbreath
was charged with conduct unbecoming an
officer and gentleman it being alleged that
he had uttered defamatory language
against fellow officers wife. They
acquitted him of the charge, and all specif-
cations laid under. Gen. Terry approves the
findings of the court, and made official an
nouncement, yesterday, of Capt. Gilbreath's
acquittal and restoration to duty.
Lieut.. @. B. Read, of the Eleventh in
fantry, was also tried for the same alleged
offense. His case terminated, yesterday, be-
fore the court. In view o. the action in
Capt. Gilbreath's case, the presumption is
something more than fair to believe that
Lieut.. Reed will also be exonerated. His
case was almost identically the same as Capt.
G1lbreath's the same cause and generally
the same class of witnesses.
Ordinarily the acquittal of these officers
would convey the fact that ssthe defama-
tory" allegations upon which the original
charges were based had cen found to exist.
In these cases the acquittal is based upon the
presumption that what the accused we're al
legged to have said about Lieut.. Whitney's
wife was not in intent, purpose or fact de-
rogatory or defamatory. In other words,
after official ventilation of garrison gossip it
has been left just where it was in the begin
ming, likely to be renewed with much more

regulation Of vice would be q good thing.
The am OF the society should be to point
out its hideousness and suggest to those who
fall from grace, thoughts which will induce
noble deeds as compensation or reparation
for the evil done. To direct the thoughts
properly after the commission of an act in
contravention of the plain law of God should
be the aim of all good men. It is impossible
to prevent sin, and, indeed, it would be I'M
desirable to do 80, for the resulting
virtue shines far more brightly by contrast
than it would otherwise. Our clergymen
and moral reformers would fit themselves
better for their work If they would become
acquainted with sin in all its forms. Like
poisons, each sin has its antidote, and if the
clergy like the physicians should study the
diseases they pretend to cure and ascertain
the proper remedies for each phase,the world
would be far better than it now is. Ignor-
ance of the cause and nature of vice is the
greatest impeachment to its cure when the
ministers study their profession as do the
doctors on precisely the same theory-we
may hope that they will be able to direct the
thoughts of their patients into the proper
channels and make them better men and
women. They will be better for having been
slightly scathed, for they will know better
how to avoid the shoals that surround them
on every hand.

GRANTS partisan papers are in fever of
indignation because the British admiral in
Chinese waters avoided him when he arrived
at Hong Kong and Yokohama by moving to
some other port SO as to escape the duty (?)
of honoring his arrival with salute of
twenty-one guns. They are either very ma
licious or very stupid. Such a salute is only
given by the British navy to ruling mon
arch of friendly power, and could not be
given in honor of Gen. Grant, who is
simply private citizen. The Chinese,
however, received him with all the honors
due to king, and very properly, too, but in
order to avoid a misunderstanding which
might arise from neglect to give salute
that is not only improper but contrary to the
rules of the navy, the British admiral chose
to absent himself and his ship from the
scene. The act was prompted by motives of
delicacy rather than discourtesy. Grant is
in no respect entitled to the honors accorded
to royalty, and the Englishman is entitled to
honor for avoiding what his entertainers
might construe as slight upon a.distin-
guished American citizen.

and property and life we're both more unsafe.
To day the police promenade their beats with
scarcely thought of disturbance, and
drunkenness on the streets is exceedingly
rare. Petty as well as grave offenses are
seldom chronicled in the police courts.
We attribute much of this improvement in
the moral tone of the city to the frequency
of excursions to the suburbs. Our citizens
require relaxation. They will take it in
rational manner if it is to be had );
if not they will throng the
saloons, get drunk and bois-
ferrous and ultimately criminal Now they
have the opportunity to go few miles into
the country, take cooling bath or sail, and
return at bedtime refreshed and exhilerated.
They may take glass of liquor while they
are away, but thespresence of ladies exercises
restraining influence upon them, so that
there have rarely been cases of overindul-
gence at the lakes for the past two years.
They return on the trains with merry hearts,
and retire at once to their homes to sleep,
arising the next morning in fit condition for
hard days work.
These excursions to the lakes we esteem to
be one of the most powerful moral agents
in existence. They surpass the pulpit for
the reason that they reach class that the
pulpit cannot reach. They are thoroughly
democratic. The poor mingle with the rich
on an equal footing. They receive equal
attention if they behave equally we'll. The
rowdy may go with the crowd, but he must
keep his rowdyism beneath cloak, for he
knows that no imLroprieties will be per-
mitted. The utmost decorousness is OBJ
served both on the trains and in the pleas
ure grounds, and those who are naturally in
clined to deviltry return with the convic-
ton, that grows stronger with every succeed
ing trip, that it is far more enjoyable to be
decent than to be otherwise. Men who, at
the beginning of the season, went out to
one of the lakes for " q time - have become
regular visitors and conduct themselves
with the utmost propriety, SO that they have
become thoroughly and radically reformed.
By their fruits ye shall know them. If
we judge of the suburban excursions by
their results, we are called upon to give
them our most hearty and unqualified en-
dorsement. They may be money making
enterprises for their conductors, but they are
at the same time agents of moral reform
which every good citizen should encourage.
In short time the rough who started out
for the lakes on a trip of pleasure will be a
tit subject for the clergyman to take in baud
and FURNISH up into model citizen and
Christian. These excursions are good things,
and we can't have too many of them.

GLovER's report is bothering the Republi-

to deny the charges put forth, but content
themselves with abusing Glover as a crazy
fellow who doesn't understand the science of
boo kkeeping. It would take very smart
man to understood the bookkeeping in the
treasury department, which seems to be de-
signed to confuse rather than enlighten
people. The ugly facts remain, however,
that there has been gross Encouragement,

PRED the property has reverted to Mr.. M.
Auerbach under the foreclosure purchased
from the Farmers and Mechanics bank, in
addition to which he purchased the interests
formerly owned by Mr.. George r. Finch and
A. II. Wilder, thus virtually becoming the
sole owner of the driving park property.
Under the foreclosure the former stockhold-
ers of the association lose the $29, 800, the
original amount of the investment As
stated Ill previous issue of the GLOBE a
movement is on foot to induce the county
and city to purchase the property from Mr..
Auerbach, which is understood can be re-
deemed by the payment of not very large
bonus, to which he is already entitled for his

SUBURBAN EXCURSIONS.

Nothing contributes SO largely to the en-
joyments of summer lifa as the almost
nightly excursions now taking place from st.
Paul to the delightful lakes that surround US
on every hand. The railroad managers have
arranged their trains so that tired mortals,
after hard days work in the city, can, at
slight expense, take trip to Elmo, White
Bear, or other lakes, and Whit the refreshing.
fragrant breezes that are waited over them,
and return to enjoy a comfortable nights
rest at home. These resorts have been made
the chief points of attraction in the North
west. Where nature has neglected to en-
bellish them, art has supplied the deficiency.
A bath in the cool waters of the lake, ride
over its surface, or q promenade along it's
banks, are harmless diversions, and add
greatly to the enjoyments of life.
The moral effect of these excursions must
be manifest to all who are of an observing
turn of mind. Ten years ago, or less, before
the attractions of these lakes were brought to
notice and before the railroads offered Quick
and cheap transit t them, st. Paul was
what might be called rough city. Street
rows were of constant occurrence nightly,
while drunken men paraded the streets in
droyes, driving all peaceable citizens from
the streets. The police haditheir hands full
in their efforts to preserve order, and the
station house was crowded with prisoners
nightly. To be sure the river traffic was
larger than it is at present, and attracted a
large number of desperate characters here,
while the construction of railroads then in
active progress attracted a very undesirable
class to our population. Nevertheless those
who could be reckoned as among our citizens
were hardly as peaceably inclined as they are
to-day. Rowdyism was far more common,

SYINDELL WANTED.

der to Secure Commission.
Mr.. George A. Swindell, tombstone agent
and solicitor for mortuary inscriptions, en-
dearing epitaphs, ETC., is wanted. He is
wanted, in fact, Individually and severally.
In the singular, he is wanted by Mr.. Cum
mings, dealer and manufacturer of fine
marble work and gravestone ornaments, cor
ner of Seventh and Ceder streets, while in
the latter connection the optics of three
score guardians of the peace would fain rest
their gaze on the manly form of the ubiqui-
tious but elusive Swindell.
The intense desire manifested to interview
Mr.. S windell from SO many quarters arises
from the fact of his having obtained small
sums of money under false pretenses, the
principal allegation being that he fraudulent
ly secured the sum of 1918 from Mr.. Cum
mings which occurred about as follows: A
few weeks since the latter employed Smindell
as solicitor for the sale of tombstones and
as collector for orders for Inscriptions, the
understanding being that he was to receive
Is per cent. of all orders taken.
For the first week or two orders began to
flow in quite freely and Mr.. Cummings was
highly pleased with the success enjoyed by
his new agent. No suspicion of unfair deal
ing was entertained until one day last week,
when Swindell returned from Washington
county, bearing with him quite number of
orders. Among others he presented an order
for tombstone in Washington county, the
commission on which amounted to SOL
and it has since been ascertained that the
order was forged, and that it was fabricated
as an unlawful ruse to obtain money.
It is not known to what extent the expedi-
ent was resorted to, the instance alluded to
being the only forgery developed up to last
night. A state warrant has been issued for
Swindell, and he will probably be arrested
to-day

Memphis Avalanche.


Memphis Avalanche.
Robert G. Pillow, son of the late Exon
federate Gen. Pillow, lives on an Arkansas
plantation, across the river from Memphis. A
few days ago, accompanied by Aleck, one Of
the colored men on the place, he went out
hunting wild hog that had been in the
vicinity. Pillow had gun and Aleck had
armed himself with a pint bottle
filled with whisky. The hog was found and
shot, and just as Pillow went up
to the writhing animal an immense "cotton
month"; snake, whose bite is fatal as that
of rattlesnake, fastened its fangs on the
calf of his leg. Pillow is not easily frighten-
ed. He took IN the situation in moment,
and instead of exhibiting alarm lie turned to
his companion and quietly remarked:
"Aleck, I think lltry little Of that whisky
now,'' whisky being considered an infalible
remedy. He poured every drop down his
throat without stopping to venture any re-
marks as to its quality. Then shonldering
his gun he rapidly walked to the house, q
half-mile distant, where he drank the con-
tents of three ordinary glass tumblers filled
with whisky. He was soon in what he calls
a Niagara Falls of perspiration, !" which
rapidly expelled the poison and saved his
life. For q day or two after he says he was
the sickest man in all Arkansas.
