SECCESS rs. PRIDE.

Mr.. Spurgeon warns the British public
that thu nation is getting too proud, and
quotes The proverb of the man who was
probably the greatest egotist who ever ex-
listed, that ''pride goeth before fall" ap-
plying it to the nation at large. We care
little whether this proverb comes true in the
case of Great Britain or not. The nation
deserves a fail, or at least a pretty severe
back-set to bring 1t to its senses. But the
assertion that either national OF individual
pride is the forerunner of reyerses is the
sheerest nonsense. There are scores or
thousands of men in every community of
considerable size who habitually carry
very high head on very limited capital, and
them experiencing fall or 'taking tum-
BILE to themselves'' as the slang phrase goes
nowadays. Since Solomon's time there
has been q change in the man-
ner of conducting affairs. Now it
happens that the prouder a man gets
the better he gets along in the world. As
long as he dresses we'll, and assumes the
dignity of prince, he is looked up to as a
man worthy of esteem and respect. But a
man who is industrious, temperate, and at
tends to his own business, and does oil in his
power to help others, is regarded as a COM
mon buffet, to be kicked about by every
Tom, Dick and Harry, in the community,
This is the age in which cheek wins and
honest merit has to take back seat As the
English people have the cheek, and their
government supplements it by a large supply
of the same article, we have no doubt they
will continue to go forward and achieve
fame and territory to the end of time, not
withstanding Messrs. Sturgeon and Solomon
to the contrary. 1t is easy to give forth pre-
cepts, but they do not alter the course of
events in the least. Cheek will win the bat
tie of life ninety-nine times out of hun
dred, and the righteous will find himself
forsaken just in that proportion.

FIFESHIRE MEN COMING.

The Philanthropy of MIR. Williamson, of
LiverpOol-He Purchases Thirteen Sec
tions of Choice st. p, NJ. & NJ. Land-In-
tellisent Farmers to be Sent to Till the
Soil.
Sometime in the latter part of last Seq
TENDER MIR. Williamson, wealthy grain
merchant of Liverpool, England, visited
st. Paul. He is at the head of an extensive
grain house at Liverpool with branches
at Valparaiso and San Francisco, and his
house handles the larger portion of the grain
crop of California which is exported. He
made his tour of inspection last year not as
philanthropic motives, having desire to
use his means to benefit his fellow men. He
sought to find the most eligible location for
the better class of old country farmers, and
with this end in view he visited upper and
lower California, Oregon, going through the
famous Villa Walla valley, Manitoba, Da-
kota, inspecting the Cass, Cheney,
Dalrymple and other farms, and final
ly made his selection in the Red river valley
of the North. He bought while here three
sections of land of the st. Paul, Minneap-
oils & Manitoba road, located near Angus
station, between Crookston and st. Vincent.
Upon returning home, he seemed to have be-
come additionally impressed with the loca-
ton, and wrote requesting the company to
sell him ten more sections, which they &C
cordingly did in the same region. This rail-
road company does not encourage the 'large
farm plan of cultivation, and this large
sale was not for such purpose. Mr.. Will
hanson pays cash for the land and pro-
poses to place it at the disposal of large
tenant farmers in the old country, who pos
cess both means and intelligence. He will,
practically. give them the land for cultivat-
ing it. He designs to send this year two
families of Fifeshire farmers from Scotland
to locate on each section, and within three
years to have three fourths OF his entire
purchase under cultivation. 1t is not pro-
posed to make large farms but to make
such size that farmers having
both means and intelligence, as
the Fifeshire men have, can bring the Gull
tivation of the soil to its highest perfection,
and instead of chance and average corps
have constant certainty of at least forty
bushels of "No hard" to the acre. The
original Fife wheat, which has made Min
nesota -four 30 famous, came from Scotland
where these enigrating farmers reside.
They are familiar with its cultivation and
will make valuable acquisition to Min
nesota, not only for the immediate
land they may cultivate, but
more especially for the excellent example of
improved farming which they will furnish.
1t is splendid tribute to the Red river
valley that Mr.. Williamson should choose
that spot after his wide tour of inspection,
and his scheme is worthy of the large-hearted
philanihropist which he is. The Fifeshire
farmers and Minnesota should both unite in
honoring the liberal and public-spirited gen
tleman, whose plan and expenditure will
prove of vast advantage to both.

DIED FROM EXPOSURE.
An Infant Left on a Door Step and is Found
Dead.

Dead.
At o'clock yesterday morning as Augusta
Neubauer was passing through the yard
attached to her parents residence, at rs
Ellen street, she noticed a bundle and basket
sitting on the door step of the front door.
She Immediately told her mother and on
taking the bundle in the house it was
found to contain the dead body
Of young infant. The coroner
was notified of the find and at 1880
o'clock, jury, consisting of F. w. H.
Gelderman, Adolph Mueller, Edward Shields,
Charles RAINBOW, William Boyer and John
Clonen, were empanelled, and an inquest
commenced.
Mrs Neubauer, and her daughter, Amelia
Neubauer, were sworn, both testified to
hearing noise at the front door about 10
o'clock, Friday night, just as the family were
retiring, but as Mr.. Neubauer said it was tie
wind no attention was paid to it. The finding
of the body was described, and Amelia being
asked if she had any suspicion as to who the
child could belong to named certain young
lady. This, clue, however, was destroyed by
the testimony of witness who stated that
the child in question was girl while the
dead infant was boy. Thu basket found
near the body was filled with under
clothing, such as is usually
worn by infants month old,
and nursing bottle, but nothing that would
give any clue to the person who committed
the unnatural crime. The coroner stated
that the child was about month old, and its
death had occurred from exposure.
The jury rendered verdict that the infant
came to its death by exposure, on the night
of February Doth, on the doorstep of Neu-
bauer's residence, it being placed tfere by
parties unknown.
The body was taken in charge by Nc
Carthy & Donnelly and deposited in the
vault at Oakland cemetery. Steps We're i'm
mediately taken by the police authorities to
discover, if possible, the person who placed
the infant at the place where it was found,
and Officer Baer and Health Inspector Pat
terson are engaged in working up the affair.

IRISH RELIEF.

Newspaper Contribution From Paris-Dub
lin Report that the Pope will Caution
Irish Bishops Against Aiding Political
Agitation-Relief Subscriptions Must be
Kept Up-The Worst Time Coming in
July.
A FRENCH JOURNALS CONTRIB UT1oN.
LONDON, Feb. PA dispatch from Paris
reports that the proprietors of the Universe
have RENTED $4,000 francs for relief pur-
poses to Irish Catholic bishops.
THEY DIDN'T OFFER ENOUGH.
LONDON, Feb. 21.-Tne publishers and
printers of the Sporting and Dramatic
Ne,0s have been held in their own recogni-
Zance for trial on charge of libelling the
lord mayor of Dublin. 1t is understood the
adjournment of the hearing of the case was
with view of enabling the defendants to
compromise by subscribing to the Irish re-
lief fund, but the amount they offered failed
to satisfy the lord mayor.
THE POPE TO CAUTION BISHOPS.
DUBLIN, Feb. 21.-The committee of the
Mansion House Relief fund in an appeal to
the French people stated that considerable
gifts and promises of help had been received
from Great Britain, the United States and
elsewhere, and count on generous response
to the appeal. The Archbishop of Bor-
deaux in forwarding 500 francs to the Cath
Ole Archbishop of Dublin says: France
and Ireland are inseperable names, recalling
community of faith and long standing ex-
change of sympathy" Confidential reports
respecting the nature of the agitation in
Ireland have reached the Pope, which show
that three-forths of it are due to the spirit
of socialism. Very precise instructions to
Irish Bishops therefore are being prepared
exhorting them to take care that IN relieving
distress they don't play into the hands of
those working for political object.
THE DISTRESS INCREASING.
DUBLIN, Feb. 21.-Valentine B. Dillon.
upon whom the responsibility of the organ
ization of the Mansion House committee
chiefly rests, and who is thoroughly familiar
with the situation, states that the distress in
Ireland is increasing instead Of diminishing.
The worst time, he thought, would be in
June and July. If the subscriptions should
cease now, the funds would soon be exhaust
ed and people die of starvation.

The piddling little Dispatch is anxious to
have the GLOBE specify instances of Wash
burns rascality. The GLOBE has repeatedly
done this, but it will try to accommodate the
Dispatch at an early day with
another dose. On the 2sth of last
November the GLOBE printed evidence
enough to entitle Washburn to expulsion.
If the Dispatch had intelligence enough to
have examined the sworn evidences, it would
never ask for bill of particulars. It's how
ling simply proves it little fool. Still the

wuaN the national Democratic oommitte

WHEN the national Democratic committee
meets in conference at Washington to-mor-
row, it will probably respect the injunction
of the SUNDAY GLOBE to fix upon location
for the convention that shall be convenient
to the delegates from the great empire of
the West. Chicago would be the best of the
great cities, Cincinnati second, and st. Louis
third, and If a fourth choics is to be made
no better place could be found than ST. Paul.
WITH our fifteen lines of railroad, we can
give transportation to all who may desire to
come, while our hotels, though at present
crowded, could probably feed several thou
sands of hungry Democrats.

Church Benefit Dinner.

OF the many e1pedients that have been
devised to lift the floating indebtedness of
church, the system of preparing toothsome
dinners at q reasonable price, has proven
the most remunerative and popular. The
immense popularity of the scheme can not
be doubted, and if there are any skeptics on
this point visit to the gospel garden on
Wabashaw street yesterday afternoon
would have resolved all doubt.
The occasion was sumptuous dinner given
by the ladies of Plymouth church, and III bit
royalty was it honored. The feast COM
menced at IL o'clock n. and several hundred
citizens partook of the banquet. The bill
of fare included all the substantials of the
season, with liberal sprinkling of more
toothsome delicacies, all of which was boun-
tifully furnished for the insignificant equiv
alent of fifty cents. The dinner lasted until
o'clock and was enjoyed by over two hun
dred citizens. The cash receipts exceeded
the expectations of the ladies IN charge, and
the proceeds will be applied to lifting the
debt of the church.

THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOL

Eleven years ago, in April, a general meet

the prospect of starting the first Building

but few west of Pennsylvania. One was
fully organized by September; another
following in April; year or two later a
third, and three years later fourth. Now
there are about fourteen. If any one had

that in ten years there would be over two

Maggie Mitchell.

Maggie Mitchell closed her brief engage
ment in this city, yesterday, after perform
Ing to two of the largest audiences that ever
filed the Opera House. In the afternoon
the auditors were composed principally of
ladies' and children, and they filed every
available space. The artistic appeared at her
best as Amry in "Little Barefoot" and the
frequent applause and the constant ripping
of laughter in the humorous lines, alternat-
ing with sobs in the more pathetic passages,
testified the keen appreciation with which
her efforts to please were received. Her
support was excellent throughout.
In the evening "The Pearl of Savoy was
produced before an audience that packed the
theater to the doors. In this the charming
little woman had an opportunity to display
her versatility, and the transition from comic
to pathetic and even tragic situations, con-
yinced any who might have been doubters as
to her artistic merits that she possesses rare
powers of emotional expression. Her eff
forts to please were abundsntly rewarded
with liberal applause, and at the end of each
act she was called before the curtain and
treated to right royal honors.
During her engagement Miss Mitchell has
proved anew her right TO the title of Amer
ica's fsv rite Unassuming in conduct,
painstaking in every detail of the drama
full of life and vivacity, she has ensnared
the hearts of thousands who have learned to
esteem her not only as lady of rare social
qualities, but as an artistic of extraordinary
merit who is an honor to the profession.
