HORSE AND TRACK.
A FYne Three Year old.

Mr. Patrick Butler, of this city, cannot be
called breeder, but Mr.. Butler was 30 FORUM
ate as to become The owner, several years since
of fine pacing mare. by Mechanically, out
of mare brought here from Canada by st.
Lawrence. This mare is low, short, COM
pactly built animal, with a most intelligent
head and splendid set of legs and feet. and
though never trained for speed, has shown
half mile in better than l15. Three years
ago this mare was given to the embrace
of Mr.. George W. Sherwtod's Swigert
stallion Walter Ferris. The result of the union
was black colt, star in the forehead. white
snip on the lip, and right hind foot
white. This colt, now gelded, stands 15.2,
and though in the rough and still growing. has
that in his general put up that will attract the
attention and please the eye of any thorough
horseman. A clean cut and finely shaped head
bright full eye, showing plenty of spirit, set
upon beautiful neck prominent shoulders
and broad breast, short back, muscular arms,
great propelling power, q bony set of legs
and sound, good, shaped feet. Such is the colt
in brief-a very perfect piece of machinery.
Walter Ferris, his sire, is by Swigert. son of
Alexander's Norman, sire of Lulu, 2:l5, May
Queen, 2:20; Blackwood, the sire of Proteiue,
2l8, and other good ones. The dam of Walter
Ferris was Puss Ferris by Wagner, noted four
mile running mare. We thus find that Mr.
Buffers colt is mbination of most excel
lent trotting, running and pacing
strains, the two first from his sire,
and the latter from his dam,
combination found in many of the best turf
performers of the day. The colt, though un
broken except to wearing the harness, trots
naturally. OF course it is too early to say he
will be trotter, but he has the make up fol
fast and slayer, and if We were Mr.. Sher
wood, the owner of Walter Ferris, we should
expect this colt to make reputation for our
horse as a sire of trotters.

MINNESOTA AGAINST BLAINE.

1t is amusing to see the squirming of the
Blaine crowd of Minnesota Republicans
over the Window boom bombshell. Blaine
thought he had Minnesota "fxed." All the
calculations have given Minnesota to Blaine.
There has been no interesting state of I'M
certainty in the figures, until within few
days past. The Window boom now begins
to worry the Blaine men, however. A few
Eastern papers have been giving Window taffy
and his gang of ofice-holders in Minnesota
are making the most of it.
There is always O sort of inter-
esting doubt as to the dark horse,' and as
the "dark horse'' is generally a very small
specimen of man, the Window cIaquers
have great hopes for their favorite. To ask
the support of the delegation from this State
for the "favorite son" and "Gqrk horse" is
almost irresistible. The Window men
argue, very truly, that while he roy not be
the Lick animal in the race, he sure not
to be if he is repudiated at he =. State
pride is accordingly appealed 10 in
order to Offset the Blaine anthu-
siasm and the work is being pretty
well done. A week ago there was but little
idea that Minnesota would go against Blaine
at the Chicago convention. The situation,
however, is changing rapidly, and by the
10Th it would not be surprising to see q
whooping Window crowd 70 st. Paul. q
OF course his nominal is an absurdity
but it gives some of his OF. folders chance
to show their loyalty, an6 on him fol
future favors in return. be Blaine gang
might as we'll surrender new as later. The
''favorite son" and "dark horse'' gag will
win.

Last week a German at Little Sioux, Jack
son county, had his barn set on Dire by
sparks from the house chimney, burning up
barn, granary and 100 bushels of oats, 45
head of cattle and about one hundred sheep.
1t is stated that cattle buyers from
Missouri have their agents scattered all over
Minnesota, buying up two year old cattle, at
from eight to ten dollars head. It is be-
lieved to be great mistake to sell cattle at
that price, or to sell cattle of that age at all.
Pat Desmond, drunken saloon keeper,

BISMARCK is again attempting to coerce
the reichstag on the question of abOlishing
the free ports Of Hamburg and Lubbock. He
complains that this attempt to override the
wishes of the government in this matter is
something to which it cannot submit. The
representatives of the people, however, have
been submitting to the dictation of the
chancellor all along, and it is pretty nearly
time that the tables were turned. Turn

The Great Western Band Concert.

The amusement event of this week will be
the grand inaugural concert of Prof. Geo. Sci
bert's brass bands and orchestras of Minneapo-
lis and st. Paul, known as the Great Western.
This long looked for event takes place at the
Academy of Music on the Wednesday evening
of this week, and the entertainment is likely
to draw out large and fashionable audience.
Heretofore Minneapolis has been
sadly in need of both brass
bands and orchestras of merit, and now
that Mr. Seibert has taken the matter in hand
and will furnish Minneapolis with an organi-
cation equal to that of st. Panl, his enterprise
should be recognized by an overio wing house
on Wednesday evening. Besides the music of
the bands, singly and combined, the entertain
ment will embrace some fine vocal music. The
Apollo quartet, Mrs. Anderson and Mr.. D.
Blakely are to sing, and Mr.. Fred Will is to
contribute violin solo. The sale of seats will
commence tomorrow and rush may be an
ticipated.

The Model Woman.
IHardinn,s Herald.l

Rev. Samuel G. Smith, of st. Paul, has been
preaching a sermon about woman-the model
woman. The subject has singular fascina-
ton for the cloth. The brief report of Mr..
Smiths discourse in the GLOBE gives us but
little idea of his manner of treating the theme,
but we cannot help regarding it as unfortu-
nate that he should have taken his text from
Solomon. That eminent man of God made an
exhaustive study of woman, and none of his
day and generation knew more of her, but we
fear that what the wise man would regard as
"the model woman would hardly do for a
model in these days-unless it were for an art
lists model.

ed to be in favor eff Washburne and Blaine,

The account of the result of the Ohio
convention, copied from the Cincinnati Elm.
quirer, in this issue of the GLOBE
is evidently an DER true tale. Sen
nator Thurman is in no danger OF
being nominated, and the instructions fol
him are very empty honor. Sammy prac-
tically captured Ohio, as he had before cap
tured New York and Pennsylvania. Every
day makes it more and more apparent that
Tilden will be the power at Cincinnati. He
may not absolutely have two-thirds
of the convention for himself. But
the man he will be willing to har-
monte upon is certain to have the
necessary figure. All the signs of the po-
litical horoscope point in the direction Of
Henry B. Payne as falling heir to Mr.
Tilden's favor. If Payne should be the
nominee the Democrats would carry Ohio
in October and the country in November. Il
looks very much as though an "Ohio man.
would continue to be President.

the great quartette who created such a sensa-
ton last year. The nominations for the free
for all stations, are Bonesetter, Monroe Chief
Wedgwood, Voltaire and Hannis, all of whom

offered to donate the entire net proceeds OF
the publication to the erection of monu-
ment as suggested. This offer is exceeding

necessary to make the history accurate and
valuable. st. Paul alone ought to take at

try and at the same time lasting credit to
