Again: We favor the bill be-
cause we believe that 10y de-
stroying the monopoly charac-
ter of the lottery its power
for moral evil will be diminished.
On the co trary, say the mo-
nopolists, the evil will be eN-
tended; the field will be work
ed over more industriOnsIy ;
agencies will start up every
where, and tickets will abound
in every hamlet. But this is
all assertion. The present adj
IN 'nistration of the business is
thorough and indefatigallc, and
does not probably leave unoccu-
pied any field where there is a
real prospect of turning an hon
est penny. On the other hand its
immense wealth and semi'Oflicial
character give it Il kind of pres
tiSe with the people, a moral
standing which rivalry and
comparative adversely would
take away from it. The bust
ness would lose vital force by
being divided UP, and wouid
propabably degenerate inic IL
condition more or less diSrcp'l-
table. 1t is only by covering
such institute rs with a mantle
of special State favor that they
are made to rise above the lev

RAMSEY COUNTY MIP.
Tho New Work Completed by Warner
and FOOte.

The map of Ramsey county, which Warner &
Foote have had in process for some time, has
been completed and IS now being delivered to
subscribers. 1t is an excellent work, con-
tanning a plat of the city, showing the
streets very clearly, the ward boundaries, etc.
In the townships the name of every farmer Is
given and the number of acres he owns. Every
road, stream and lake in the county is given,
and it is most valuable production. 1t also
gives such portions of Washington and Dakota
counties as border on Ramsey.
We are sure the public will learn with pleas
ure that this enterprising firm is at work upon
a new mapof the State. The prospectus sets
forth the following as the plan of the map.
THE map will show Congressional town
ships, ranges and sections, railroads. main
travelled roads, streams and lakes. The loca-
ton Of organized towns. cities, villages, town
sites, railroad stations and postofiices with
their names, especial care will be taken to give
the post office as well as local name to dual
towns. The map will be drawn on& scale of
six miles to the inch and colored
by organized townships and counties.
The work will be taken
from government, State, county aud railroad
records and plats, and from new and complete
surveys made for county and other local maps,
and such personal observations as may be nee.
essary to make the maps reasonably correct.
The map will be clearly engraved on
copper plate and printed, handsome
ly colored and substantially mounted
on muslin with roller and moulding.
In addition to the above the map will be &C
companied with table Of explanations, the
Congressional, Senatorial, assembly and land
office districts and judicial circuits; also list
of patrons, giving name, business and adj
DRESS
1t has been so long since large State map
was issued that such work has become a
necessity. 1t will be year before the work
can be completed, and it will contain the full
census returns and much other valuable infor-
nation. The time occupied in its preparation
shows the thoroughness with which the work Is
being done.

Miss Emma Thursby.

Miss Emma Thursby, Americas greatest
concert singer, will appear at the Opera
House on the 1sto March. A Canadian ex-
change, speaking of a recent concert, says ::
The great attraction of the evening, how
ever, was Miss Thursby, who sang in Shaftes
bury Hall just two years ago, the eve of
starting for England. The whole of this long
interval has been spent in England and France
except the time taken up in the present tour,
and in both countries her reception was most
cordial and appreclative. Her voice is rich,
full and pure as ever, but as might be expect
ed it shows traces of much higher culture than
on her previous visit. Her first piece was
La Calandrina," by Jomeli, which
afforded her an excellent opportunity of dis
playing her control over her we'll trained voice;
and in response to rapturous encore she sang
with exquisite grace simple ballad which she
has popularised in England, 'Twickerham
Ferry" Her second number was the "Rondo
Finale" from Bellini's La Somnambula." her
rendering of which again won for her an en-
core to which she replied with "a mile from
Edinbro' Toor." The third piece assigned to
her on the programme valse from Ricci's
The Folie a Rome" which was twice encored,
the encores being acknowledged by an e1-
quisite rendering of Thaubert's Bird Song
and Eckart's Echo Song

The Davis-Fisher Case a. st. James.

In the prosecution Of the Rev. A. j. Davis
of Madelia, on chargs of attempting to poi
son his partner, Mr.. Fisher, with strych-
nine, inserted in raisins, the defense continu-
ed it's case yesterday by Introducing two
medical experts, Doctors Brown and Dodge,
both of whom swcre that the symptoms, as
described by Fisher, and Dr.. Cooley, who at
tended him, were not symptoms of strych-
nine poisoning. 1t would appear that if
Fisher was not poisoned he is guilty of hav-
ing plotted against Davis. The defense,
however, has failed to show that Fisher had
possession of any strychnine, as the prosecu-
ion tse failed to show that Davis had any.
It is not often that a poisoning case comes
into court without evidence to show that
somebody connected with the case had poi
son in his Or her possession. In this case
the only evidence of poison is in theresults of
chemical tests of crystals taken from raisins
furnished by Fisher.
