The season for tramps has commenced in
dead earnest. The levees swarm with this
genus of dilapidated outcasts, and petty thefts
are of daily occurrence. Each night a number
of woe -begone specimens seek lodging at the
station house, each man looking as though he
had wrestled with pretty hard winter. And
the query" What will we do with them?" arises
more cogently than ever.

to large circle of our citizens who will regret
his departure. He designs leaving on the 18th
inst.
Mccarthy & Donnelly have in course of fabri-
cation magnificent banner for the Father
Mat hew Temperance society of Mendoza.
The banner is of white corded silk with green
back, elaborately embroidered in silk and gold.
The design is beautiful and exquisitely wrought
by hand, with such finish that the cluster of
roses, etc., looks like the finest painting. The
center of the banner is to be adorned with a
vignette of Father Mathew. When finished
it will be the finest banner in the Northwest.

House box Office. The talented artist has re-
cited to brilliant audiences throughout the
State and her performances have elected the

most fattering, and st. Paul should not be be-
bind in extending support to this class of pro-
nounced dramatic excellence.

If the two remaining occupants of the Sher,
man block, corner of Wabashaw and Sixth
streets, now being fitted up, only follow the
example of the three firms who have already
commenced business therein, the block will
present the handsomest and most attractive
Ed a. e "a e.
tainly more tastily arranged and snowy stores

Because the Diamonds kept disrepu table
house between this city and Minneapolis, the
public have jumped at the conclusion that il
was permanently evil. Fortunately the Dia
moud den has been broken up. 1t has now
been reopened by Mr.. Knagh as a reputable
house and is styled the Avenue Hotel. A re-
port that its reopening was characterized by
an orgie was an error, the only foundation be.
ing quiet supper party of gentlemen without
any ladies being present. The GLOBE trusts
Mr.. Knagh's avowed determination to keep a
reputable place will be encouraged by the pub
lie. =
