AN IMMIGRATION DOCUMENT.

Messrs. Read and PelIs Report to the
British Agricultural Commission on
American Agriculture.
The joint report to the Royal Agricultural
commission of Great Britain, by Mr.. Glare
Read and Mr.. Albert Pell, NJ. p, assistant
commissioners appointed to inquire into
the agriculture of the United States and
Canada, is long document, embracing the
opinions and notes of travel of the authors,
the opinions and statements of American
and Canadian farmers, merchants and ship
pers, and statistical information cleaned
from official and other authorities. The au
thors deal with the facts observed or learned
in their travels on this continent primarily
with reference to the probable and possible
expectations of food supplies from America
and their effect upon British agriculture,
and second, with regard to the advantages
to be gained and disadvantages
from the British islands, who come to make
themselves homes on the cheap lands of
America. Throughout there is apparent q
quite natural prejudice or rather preposses-
sion in favor of the old countries, but never
theless the facts gathered are pretty fairly
stated. and, considering how short was the
time they were here, Messrs. Read and Pell
are to be commended for collecting and
presenting, in good shape, with few and un-
important errors, great deal of useful in
formation regarding the lands of the new
world, methods and cost of cultivation, the
crops produced, stock raising, market values,
transportation facilities, the cost of trans
portation, etc. While the report is sufi-
ciently explicit in warning intending emil
grants of the changes and privatlons and
hardships they must expect to encounter, its
presentation of what can be accomplished
here with small capital and
labor will encourage the strong
and adventurous to try the new world rather
than bear the lot of poor man whose op-
portunities for improving ones condition in
life are both rare and hard. The report deals
especially with the agriculture of fOntario,
Manitoba, Minnesota, Dakota, Iowa, etc., and
reads as if the authors were most favorably
impressed with Minnesota, Dacota and Iowa.
The arrangement is such, however, that ex-
tracts cannot be proftably made to do JUS
tice to the work. We can only hope that il
will be we'll circulated in Great Britain, and
that enough copies may reach this country
to show all those who met Messrs. Read and
Bell how well they have used the informa-
tion they obtained, and how gracefully they
acknowledge their obligation to the general
American willingness to assist them in thei1

Il DESPERADO.
John Green's Career Previous to Sunday
Nights Shooting.

John Green's Career Previous to Sunday
Nights Shooting.
In Mondays issue of the GLOBE it was
stated that John Green, who did the
shooting in the row of the night previous, at
Bateson's bagnio, was notorious Chicago
crook and plug ugly of the worst descrip-
tion. In proof of this, a letter was received
by Chief Weber yesterday from VIM. A.
Pinkerton, of the Chicago detective bureau,
which throws food of light on the crimi-
nal career of Green. The letter is dated on
the 18th inst, and is quite lengthy.
The writer first refers to Green as being
dangerous professional thief, who pretends
to be three card monte man but in reality
is desperate burglar and hotel thief.
It is stated that he is the most desperate
and dangerous crook in the country. About
two years ago he and two pals named Sam
Perry and John O'Brien terrorized the resi-
dents of Southern Illinois. Among the dar-
ing thefts committed by Green was at Cairo,
Illinois, where he went into an Office, grabbed
package containing 81 500, drew revol-
yer and defying arrest made his escape.
In 1873, at New York, he approached
Billy Pinkerton from the rear and subjected
him to deadly attack. Not q great while
since he and two pals named Jack Randall
and Bart. Steward were arrested for bur-
glary in Tennessee and confined in the Dal-
ton jail. They broke Jail and made their
escape. About two years ago, in Chicago,
Green was caught in the act of robbing q
gambling house and was shot by one of the
inmates. The above are only few of his
escapades, but are sufficient to show the
desperate character of the man.. His recent
adventure in this city will put him out of
harms way for some years to come.
Hamline University.
We wish to call public attention to the fact
that the college of liberal arts of this institu-
tion, and prepatory department as well
will open on Wednesday, the 22d inst. A full
corps of competent instructors haYe been en-
ployed, as follows:
Rev. d. G.. John-President and professor of
philosophy and literature.
Rev. CT. Bradley. "A. M-Ancient languages.
e. T. Mearkle, A. B-Natural sciences.
Helen Sutherland A. Mathematics.
John Ickler, A. B-German.
+. W. 81. Priem-Music.
Mrs. T. e. Knox-Drawing and painting.
L. M. neutrality-suspicious.
The courses of study are substantially the
same as those in the best institutions of like
nature. The well known character of the
president of the university as an educator and
organizer, and the ability of all the teachers,
warrant US in believing that this enterprise, in
which the people of this city, and the whole
State, indeed are greatly interested, is starting
out under the most favorable auspices. The
instruction will be thorough, the surrounding
Influences will be the very best.
The indications are that there will be good
attendance of students at the opening. We
bespeak for the University the support of the
people of st. Paul, and have no doubt that the
Institution is entering upon a career of great
prosperitY
