Major White has transferred his base of

meeting last night was held in the First Bap-
fist church, corner of Ninth and Wacouta

Major Whittle urged more general purchase and
use of the gospel hymns. The authors had no
interest in the book, and hence he had no deli
cacy in urging its use. He
took for his text Isaiah III: 10, II.
"Say ye to the righteous that it shall be well
with him, and noe unto the wicked, it shall be
ill with him.
He proceeded to deliver very forcible dis
course from these words, but tho demands

was accomplished, but it is generally believed
to have been through the means of fictitious
accounts. This, of course, would neoessitate

Il PECULIAR SUIT,

So, 400, besides these other points: The
case is entitled M. A. Anderson ct al. VS.. The
First National Bank of Mortified, and has
stretch so far as persons are con-
cerned all the way to Norway.
The allegations go that several
years ago, one Mickerson came to North
field from Norway. He had draft from
N. A. Anderson on Juergens & Co. of La
Crosse, Wisconsin. This draft, $2,7OO in
amount, was deposited with Phillips & Co.,
or the First National Bank of Mortified
Mickerson retained, however. $500 of the
amount, making the deposit in fact $2,4OO
The draft was adjudged good and
the Northfeld bank and the La Crosse con-
Germ, but, when presented at the counters of
the latter concern, the bank of Juegens 4
Go. was found to have failed. In due time
Mickerson came for his money, and, on 40.
count of the above unfortunate circumstances
the bank refused to pay over, holding that
Juegens & Co.'s failure shouldn't be their
loss. At any rate, the Norway house of NJ.
A. Anderson made the amount good to Mick
erson, and bring suit to recover from the
Mortified bank. Notable legal talent is en-
gagged on both sides, the plaintiff being rep
resented by Cameron, Losey & Bum and

MAN EATING NEAR ST. LOUIS


ST.. LOUIS, Dec. 5.-Information is re-
ceived from the neighborhood of Horse Shoe
Bend, on the Mississippi river, about seven
miles north of this city in Illinois, that two
lions are roaming in the woods of that vi
cinity. A German farmer named Henry
Zimmerman was killed by them Wednesday
night, and yesterday little girl, Lille Den
mis-, and colored child name unknown, was
killed. Great excitement prevails through
out the southwestern part of Madison coun.
ty. The public schools have been suspended
and tomorrow large body of mon will
start on hunt for the animals. About a
week ago train of cars, with the London
circus on board, collided with another train
not Gar from East St. Louis, and one car
containing the lions was smashed. It was
supposed all the animals were killed, but
since then it has been ascertained two lions
and hyena are missing, and there seems
to be no doubt the beasts in Madison county
belonged to this circus and escaped from the
crushed car at the time of the collision.

6ttingly evidenced by the throng which re-

lively few sent their regrets. Every one who
was not positively precluded from being present
responded in person, that they might show
their respect and regard for their distinguished
fellow citizen. The result was, prob
ably the largest social gathering ever seen at a
private residence in st. Paul. Almost every
old settler and prominent business or profess
sional man in the city was present. To enum-
crate them would be to publish the roll
Of the leading citizens of St. Paul.
1t was notable that everybody was &C
quainted with everybody else, and no formali-
ties of introductions were necessary.
Gen. Sibley entertained his guests in the roy
al style which is characteristic of his generous,
whole-souled nature, and not a
visitor departed without being thank.
full for the opportunity to show their regard
for their honored and beloved fellow citizen
1t is hardly possible that another gentleman in

throng as that which occupied Gen. Sibley' 4
