The A. O. Bailey Buildings.

The plans for A. o. Bailey's buildings-on
Fifth and Rosabel streets, to be erected this
season by Mr.. Graves, contractor, of Hudson,
Wis, who began work on the ground Mon
day-were drawn by Radcliffe, and provide for
two handsome and well arranged business
blocks. The buildings are to be built OF
brick, faced with the Portage (Wis.) white
brick, with stone trimmings and iron cornice
and ornaments to match. The larger build
ing, fronting on Rosabel street, designed for
Mr.. Bailey's own business, will be separated
at the lower floor from the building fronting
on Fifth street by covered passage way for
teams, which can thus deliver or receive goods
at rear doors or at doors opening upon the
elevators of each building. The elevators
will be operated by a steam engine,
which, with its boilers and the boilers
for heating the two: buildings will be under
the driveway. The basement floors will be
well lighted and the three stories above will
be finished in style to adapt them to any bust
ness purposes for which they may be required,
particular attention having, however, been
paid in details of the planning to make them
strong. Both buildings are large, and thir
erection will be move in the direction of in
creasing the influences which are concentrat-
ing certain classes of business within that part
of the city bounded by jackson and Seventh
streets and the railroad houses and yards. =,

JOB I:21.
On funeral occasions it is almost the
invariable custom of ministers of the
gospel to quote this passage in the hear
ing of the afflicted family and by that and
similar passages to endeavor to. console
the mourning relatives of the person
about to be consigned to his chamber in
the tomb. Did they never think that
in uttering these thoughtless words they
are offering an insult to deity-giving ut
terance to a falsehood that should max
their cheeks Jingle with shame? If not,
they should pause and consider the mat
ter before again holding the Almighty
responsible for the thousands of murders
and suicides that are being. committed
daily in every part Of the country.
Death is unquestionably the fate of all
mankind. The young may die; tie old
must die. When man who has reached
his allotted years and passes away to the
hereafter to give an account of his stew
ardship here on earth, it is perhaps proper
to look upon his demise as the work Of
God. But nine tenths-perhaps great
er proportion-of the deaths that &C.
cur are not of this description.
Nearly two-thrds of the people die
in infancy-before they have attained the
age of five years. These are not natural
deaths, but are caused in most instances
by the criminal ignorance or neglect of
parents. Women become mothers whose
physical systems have been ruined by
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS., absurd and I'M
healthful fashions, pernicious habits OF
reckless behavior. The children of such
mothers inherit their physical weaknesses
and frequently their diseases-are puny,
ill-tempered and fretful They are fire..
quently confided to the care of an igno-
rant nurse, or if.not are kept in super
heated room, denied the benefits that
fresh air would afford, dosed with drugs
for every real or fancied ailment, overfed
or underfed, and finally they die-are lit
orally murdered by their parents who at
once shift the responsibility upon deity
and are assisted to do so by the ministers
of the gospel.
The clothing of the young especially of
young girls, is one of the most prolific
causes of disease and death. No soone

SOME eastern editorial writer, COM
menting on the delay. in organizing the
commission to pass upon the validity of
the constitutional restriction upon the
payment of the old railroad bonds, con-
cludes that the legislative act for sub
hitting the question was only passed to
deceive the bondholders and avoid their
opportunities. To prevent this false
idea from having larger circulation it
may be we'll to state the fact that the
bill, IN all its main features, was post
poned by the bondholding interest and
was originally drawn by the attorney,
Hon. Gordon Z. Cole, of the principal
bondholder, Mr.. Selah Chamberlain. If
the act proves nullity, the blame, SO far
relates to the construction of the act,
must rest on Mr.. Chamberlain and his
attorney

The engagement of this distinguished and
fayorite artistic, which begins at the Opera
houf tomorrow evening, promises to be a
highly successful one, and being given for the
benefit of worthy local organization, the
Allen Light Guards, should be largely patron
lied. The Albany Argus thus refers to Miss
Thompson as "The Planters Wife,
This play was given last evening before a
much larger audience than that OF the previous
evening. It is a play that grows in public
favor with each presentation. Those who see
it second time always find new beauties in its
action, and are more pleased with it than at a
first seeing. Miss Thompson's work is most
artistic throughout. In the first part Of the
second act, in her scene with her affianced, the
only time throughout the drama when she is
seen in the repose of peace, without fear of
further prosecutions, she is very arch and pro-
vokes great good humor among the audience.
But, presently, when her lovers guest is pre-
scented and mutual recognition occurs, she
rises even to grandeur in her interview with
him. From that time to the close her acting
is extremely emotional, and some of the
scenes are very strong. It would be impos-
sible for any woman to act the part better
than she. l

THE present session of the Wisconsin
legislature has been the longest held in
that State for twelve years past. The
Legislature has been slipshod and gener-
ally pernicious and partisan. The legis-
lative apportionment was even more out
rageous and lawless than the apportion-
ment in this State. For instance, one
Democratic county with population OF
over forty-six thousand, is given one
Senator and two Assemblymen, while a
Republican county adjoining, with a pop
lation of less than forty thousand, is al
lowed one Senator and five Assemblymen.
This is the idea the Republicans have of

The Lumber Trade of st. Paul.

The development of the lumber traffic
centering at st. Paul has become mat
ter of Importance to many Of the large
dealers who have hitherto operated ex-
clusively frem the Chicago market
They find that while the prices and class
ifcation at Chicago and st. Paul are
substantially the same, certain classes of
lumber can be more readily obtained
here than in Chicago, while the railway
facilities for distribution beyond the Mis-
souri, are fully as good here as there.
The firm Of Brown, Shaw & Co., of
Chicago, which has fifty-five lum-
Der yards in Kansas, which
entered this market last year
and bought about two million
feet to fill up their stocks at certain
points, acting upon the experience of last
season will this year purchase most of
their lumber here. For that purpose
Messrs. Shaw and Jossly, of the firm,
will visit St. Paul this week, and Mr.
Shaw, if their pending negotiations sue
coed, will bring his family here to re-
main through the summer.
Another Indication that Chicago
dealers in lumber are looking this way is
the fact that the Chicago lumber com
pany, which has recently bought the
Marblehead lime works, near Quincy,
Ills, is negotiating through agents here
for its supply of slaves and headings from
Knapp and Wilson, Wis, on the st. Paul
& Chicago line.
An instance of the extent of the trade
is that the c., st. p. & o. Line company
is called upon, in anticipation Of the
opening tomorrow of its St. Paul s.
Omaha line, to furnish this week 2S1 cars
for the transportation of lumber to points
in Minnesota, Dakota, Iowa, Kansas and
Nebraska.

House next week, has been having splendid
success at the East. The Rochester Advertis-
err thus refers to the production of "Aida" in
that city: =, -
With respect.to the acting, it must be freely
admitted that throughout it was remarkably
good; the passions and emotions being in
many cases finely portrayed by the "Aida''
and "Rhadames" OF the opera. The musical
drama of "Aida," enriched with that magnif.
cent scenery which it demands, and Astounding
in passionate action, 30 ably brought out by
Verdi, with no other than Mile Ostaya Tori
ami in the title, role, would be truly a
grand representation, and with this in view
some idea of the entertainment enjoyed by the
rather large and fashionable audience last
night assembled at the Opera house may be
arrived at. Internationally Mile. Torriani
is most admirably fitted in every respect for
the personation of the ideal "Aida.P Her
imposing figure, at one instant noble in its
scornful Indignation and at another pitiful
in its kneeling suppliance; her noble features,
now beaming with a wealth of softness and
again dark and forbidding with the tide OF
fercer passions, all proclaim her fitness for
acting the part, and these, coupled with her
charmingly sweet and powerful Italian voice,
give to her all that is necessary for an almost
perfect rendition of the heroine of Verdi S
drama. The character of "Rhadames," as
presented by Mr.. Byron, was one of marked
excellence, both as to acting and singing,
though several times it was evident that his
voice could not bear the strain to which he
was subjectingit. AS "Ramphis" Mr.. Comfy IS
musical efforts were entirely successful and
highly acceptable. Mr.. Gettschalk as ''Amo-
nasro" in the duet with 'Aida" appeared at
his best, than which few would have desired
better, but his other endeavors, unfortunately,
were not SO meritorious. Miss Annandale in
the character of "Amneris' made a very cred
liable appearance. But, while the perform
ance of the chief characters in itself was more
than good, it was only in the choruses that
the most profound impressions were made.
Several OF these were unusually fine and, it is
safe to say, have not before been excelled III
this city. Enthusiastic encores greeted them
and aptly expressed the appreciation of the
audience. Messrs. Strakosch and Hess are to
be congratulated on their admirable presenta-
ton of NAida0
