Sad Case of DrO,cning.

A case of drowning of unusual sadness &C.
CURED in Minneapolis yesterday afternoon.
A young married woman, Mrs. Thomas Muir
ply by name, left her home on Water street,
below the suspension bridge, to bring a pail
of water from the river. Passing down on
the river, the lady went out on the ice to the
middle of the stream, and, it is supposed, in
STOPPING over to dip up the water her feet
slipped, and before she could recover her
equilibrium, plunged headlong through the
opening into the water and was carried down
by the strong current at that point.
It was fully an hour after she
left the house before the
lady was missed. At this time the four
months old baby, the only child, commenced
crying, and the name of the mother being
called no response was made, and the house
was searched without finding any trace of
her. Then it occurred to the people resid-
ing in the house that the lady had not been
seen returning to the house. Hurrying down
to the opening in the ice their worst fears
were confirmed. There was the pail and the
evidences of the terrible disaster. The hus-
band thus berieved returned home COM
pletely grief stricken, and he and the rela-
tives of the young lady have the heartfelt
sympathy of their friends. The case is the
more painful from the fact that the couple

FIRE AT LAKE CALHOUN.

The Calhoun House Entirely Destroyed By
Fire Sunday Mornin0-Loss Sc, 500.
At about o'clock Sunday morning one
of the night patrolmen in Minneapolis saw
huge illumination towards the western out
skirts of the city, and naturally supposing
that serious conhagration was imminent
proceeded to the city hall building
and pulled box No. II, thus bring
ing out portion of the fire department
on the double quick. The fremen hurried
out on Hennepin avenue in the direction of
the flames until Fourteenth street was reach
ed. From this point it was seen that the
fire was beyond the city limits and the fire.
men returned to their quarters. Yesterday
forenoon, Chief Engineer Bracket drove out
to learn where the fire had been and the ex-
tent of the damage inflicted. 1t was ascer-
tanned that the Calhoun House had burned
to the ground, and that the
fire was supposed to be the work of incen-
diaries. The Calhoun house was fine sum-
mer hotel on the shore of Lake Calhoun,
and was owned by Mr.. L. Leathers. The
house was damaged to the extent of $4,000,
but it is understood that the owner holds in
surance policies to that amount, thus cover
ing his loss. The hotel has been leased, and
was run by Messrs. Smith & Ellis, of this
city. Their loss on furniture and household
goods will amount to OF least
81 800 and no insurance. Mr.. Ellis, wife and
child, occupied the house during the winter,
and they barely escaped in their night clothes,
saving nothing. Indications of dastardly
attempt at deed most foul are apparent.
At the time the fire started a commotion
was heard near the house, and as the family
came out of doors sounds of rapidly re-
treating person was heard, and it is strongly
suspected that the fire was the work of an
incendiary.
Mr.. Ellis and family are being cared for
by their neighbors, and the sympathy of
their extreme circle of friends is extensive
to them.

Sound Political Principles.
Little Falls Transcript.

Senator Bayard is fond of home. -E1c hdnge
Well, the people of the country will allow
him the privilege of enjoying al! the com forts
of his home for several years to come.-St.
Paul Globe.
The st. Paul GLOBE shows its devotion to
principle and its strict political honesty by re-
pudiating the pernicious financial vsgaries
supported by Senator Bayard. and boldly OPP
posing the elevation to office of any man repre-
senting such principles. Bayard is Understood
to be a candidate for the Presidency, and has
always been identified with the Democratic
party, therefore the Democratic newspaper that
repudiates both the man and his principles at
this time, must have determined that no con-
tingency should lead it to support him, and
must necessarily have strong and uncompro-
missing political convictions, not to be over
thrown even by the urgent demands of politi.
cal expediency. Bayard, while protesting to
be Democrat, persistently works with the Re-
publicans and utterly refuses to cooperate
with the Democratic party unless that party
will adopt unwise measures that bear the Gle
ments of defeat on their faces.

The Millers' International Exhibition.
The exhibition committee CT the Mlllers'
International exhibition of mill machinery,
grain, flour, and bakers apparatus, has fixed
upon Cincinnati as the place in which the
exhibition is to be held. The exhibition will
open May 31st, 1880, and will remain SO for
two weeks. The greatest efforts are being
made by the executive committee to make
the exhibition a success. The building in
which it is to be held is said to be the finest
exhibition building in America. A portion
of the building, "Power hall,'' 300 by 81
feet, and two stories high, is to be fitted up
with engines, shafting. pulleys, ETC., to drive
the machinery shown in motion.
Over the Power hall are two long, we'll
lighted galleries, adapted for the exhibition
of machinery of a light class, -four and
grain exhibits, ETC., and the South hall of
about the same capacity as Power hall has
also been secured. The annual convention
of the United States Millers' association
will be held at the same time as the exhibit
fion, and the one event will, as matter of
course, reflect interest upon the other.

GRAIN BLOCKADE.

The Elevators of Chicago Crammed with
Grain-A Suspension of Receiving Neces-
sary.
CHICAGO, Jan. 1O.-A grain blockade Of
prodigious proportions is feature of the
grain trade in this market at present. The
elevators of the city, which contain an az
gregate of sixteen million bushels, are very
nearly filled to their utmost capacity, and
for this market, because when it arrives
there are no accommodations for it. In this
condition of affairs the directors of the
of accepting as regular, receipts in elevators
and store houses along the lines of various
railroads. 1t is also in contemplation to
elevators, and to build new elevators in
various quarters of the city. Large num-
bers of cars are lying along the tracks in
the city loaded with grain and unable to de-
posit. There are in storage eight million
corn, and enough other grain to make to-
tai Of fourteen and quarter millions
against total of ten millions at this time
last year. There are also about million
bushels afloat in the harbor. The elevators

generally we'll filled, some of them over
crowded. For this condition of affairs the
only explanation is that the grain syndicate
of which Jas. r. Keene is the representative
have by constant purchases forced the
market price of wheat in this city to point
where it is dead loss to ship it to New
York, and to point where it cannot be
shipped from New York to Liverpool even at
the prevailing low rates of ocean freight,
with any prospect of return of money in
vested. Unless prices in Liverpool advance
very materially or decline here something
like twenty cents per bushel, there will be
no shipping margin and the grain blockade
will continue; meantime the farmers are IN
able to find a market for their grain, al
though prices are to their liking. The out
come of this unprecedented situation will be
watched with much interest.

The cable conveys the intelligence that
Prince Bismarck is lying at the point of
death. His demise may therefore be ex-
pected at almost any moment. For long
time he has been the central figure of Eu.
rope. The German empire as it exists to-day
is the product of his genius. His ambition
has been boundless, his ability great, and his
disregard for the rights of the neighboring
nations or of the subjects of his own gov
eminent absolute. He has been despot in
the broadest sense of the word, and human
liberty will lose powerful foe by his death.

THE organs have good deal to say about
imaginary splits and rents in the solid South.
They may as well make up their minds that
nothing save the infamous Sherman-Bayard
scheme to demonstrate greenbacks will break
up the Democratic party of the South.-Atlan-
tic Constitution.
This is NJ. doubt the case, but little fear OF
disruption need be entertained. The con-
spiracy to depreciate the currency is not al
all likely to succeed, and such being the
case we may safely rely upon solid South
favorable to the election of the Democratic
candidate for the Presidency.

The Chicago Times, with that disregard
for law which ischaracteristic of all Repub-
Iican papers, argues that it makes no differ
ence whether the votes cast for Washburn at
the last election in this district were such
ballots as are prescribed by law and inter
preted by the supreme court or not, and de-
clares that it would be an outrage to unseat
him by reason of either these illegal ballots
or of his bribery and corruption. The moral
impulses of the Times were never very
strong, and since it has sold itself, body,
soul and breeches, to the Republican party
they seem to have been oblitsrated altogether.

Some weeks ago, the GLOBE advertised one
@. L. Hall as in no manner connected with this
paper. Recent information leads MS to believe
that the fellow is still making false represen-

tisement of him as a fraud in representing that
he has anything to do with the GLOBE. We
trust that any one to whom he may apply with
such story, will see that he is handed over to
the proper authorities as an impostor.

GLOBE stands alone as distinctive st. Paul in
stitution. The labor bill O. the GLOBE alone
averages over one hundred dollars per day for
the 365 days in the year. and not less than $50 of
the population of st. Paul are supported by its
business. If it was possible for the Pioneer Press
to crush the GLOBE (Which it fortunately is
not) st. Paul would practically be left without
anewspaper to defend it or advertise it abroad,
for however able and enterprising our evening
contemporary may be its field is, of necessity, a
local one. The GLOBE therefore makes free to
say that it is more to the interest of the city of
st. Paul to strengthen and build up the GLOBE
than it is to the individual interest of the
proprietor. We say this in no spirit of mendi-
public work which the GLOBE receives is per-
formed at low rates-lower than heretofore as
We have already shown, and at nearly one-half
the rates paid by the State for all its legal ad-
vertisipg. We do not believe there is tax
payer in the city, outside of the immediate
Pioneer Press circle, who objects to the policy
pursued in the matter of our local public
printing, especially when it is considered that
in the long run it is a positive saving to the
city.
The GLOBE having been begun as a perma-
nent institution proposes to grow as the bust
ness warrants and no faster. The business men
of st. Paul can enable US to improve their only
representative paper by making more liberal
use of the advantages which the GLOBE offers.
There has never been day since the GLOBE
started when it has not fully kept pace or
more with the business given it by St. Paul
and we propose to continue the same policy.
The talk which condemns the policy of the
