The evil consequences resulting from the
ravages of the chinch bugs, which have
all along been causing more or less ap-
prehension, have, of late, become more
apparent Some fields of wheat which
ten days ago gave promise of fair yield,
at the present time are not considered
worth harvesting. Results may not
prove as bad as some of our farmer

A Presentation to Major Smith.

For the past eight years Major George
H. Smith has been general superintend-
ent of the St. Paul g. Duluth road.
About month ago he resigned his posi-
ton, his resignation taking effect few
days ago. During his long management,
Major Smith, by his uniform kindness to
the hundreds of men under his employ,
has endeared himself to them ALL and
they learned of his resignation with re-
gret. Thay could not allow him to leave
them without some evidence of their re-
spect and esteem. Quietly and unobtru-
sively the "boys" proceeded to raise
purse with which to carry out their
wishes. Nearly 1000 was raised, $40
of which was invested in the purchase of
tea silver sett, consisting of ten pieces,
inscribed, Presented to Mr.. and Mrs.
Geo. 81. Smith by the employees of the
st. Paul d Duluth road" One hundred
and fifty dollars was invested in the pur.
chase of beautiful gold watch and chain
for Mrs. Smith, and the balance of $3.50
was inclOsed in pocket book appropri-
ately engraved as presented by the en-
plOyes of the road, merchants and
friends.
IdSC evening was SeleCteu IOr the pre-
sentation, and between and o'clock a
delegation, consisting of nearly fifty of
the employees Of the company, proceeded
to the residence of Major Smith, on West
Minister avenue, and through their spokes-
man, Mr.. William Thomas. presented the
gifts in neat and appropriate speech,
referring in feeling terms to the uniform
kindness they had always received from
their general superintendent during his
administration, and begged him to ac-
cept of the gifts as slight testimonial of
their regard for him and his family. Mr..
Thomas remarks were brief and to the
point, and conveyed to Major Smith the
honest sentiments of those present.
Major Smith was visibly affected by
the remarks of Mr.. Thomas, as well as by
the substantial evidence Of the testimo-
NAL presented. In hesitating tones he
replied nearly as follows:
My Friends-I had understood that a few
were likely to call tonight for a handshake
and to say goodbye, but was totally nnpre-
pared for such testimonial of your reg ard

The arrival; for to-day will be the Gem

and probably in the future, the Gem City
is commanded by w. NJ Thompson, for
years past in the Keokuk and St. Louis
trade, and known as one of the easiest"
captains on the Upper Mississippi. Speak
ing of the departure of the Gem City
from St Louis Tuesday the Republican,
says:
''It has been too much the fashion of late
years for croakers to declare that the passen-
ger business on the Upper Mississippi is dead.
Could one of them have seen the clipper Gem
City when she left here shortly after noon
yesterday for st. Paul he would have thought
that if dead it furnished one eof the liveliest
corpses he had ever seen. The former trips of
this elegant and popular steamer have been
large and profitable, but the trip with which
she started out yesterday exceeded anything
OF the kind seen here for many years. Long
before the hour OF departure she was thronged
with those who had taken time by the fore
lock and secured passage, and those anxious
TO have their names booked. To the latter
the invariable reply of the genial Pole Hatch
er was: Sorry indeed, sir, but we cannot
accommodate you.' Many of these, though
disappointed it Is true, determined to wait
over asother week, and in order not to be left
again, rushed into the Office of Jenny Lyon,
the agreeable passenger agent of the line, and
secured staterooms and passage for next trip
of the Gem City. This was done in more than
a dozen cases, and is pretty strong indica-
ton of the popularity of the flying Gem City
and her attentive and experienced officers"

COURT OF INQUIRY.
Home Guard Militiaman Cited Before a
Board of Investigation,

Board of Investigation.
'In time of peace prepare for war;"
is saying brought down to the people
of this generation from time when the
original Napoleon was on earth. The
value of the advice thus given is now
about to be fully demonstrated.
The last legislature voted a certain
sum of money for the encouragement of
State militia. Under this act
some ten infantry companies,
two cavalry companies and two batteries
of artillery have been formed. One of
the infantry companies is the Minneapo-
lis Light infantry. A short time since
this company was out for drill under COM
mand of the captain, when he was
called away by an imperative demand.
Responding to the demand, the captain
turned the company over to his second
lieutenant, with Instructions to march it
back to the armory and dis
miss the men. Instead, the
second lieutenant marched the company
through several streets, and put it
through quite severe drill, until one of
the men, who had heard the order of the
captain, rebelled and attempted to leave
the ranks. The lieutenant ordered him
back, and upon his refusal to obey the
lieutenant struck him with his sword.
The occurrence has created much excite
ment in militia circles, finally culmi-
mating in the formation of court for
trial of the lieutenant upon charges pre-
ferred by the private. The questions for
the court to decide are exceedingly COM
plicated, and if discipline is to
be maintained in our State militia, must
be met squarely. The lieutenant was or
dered by his captain TO do certain thing
with the company. The captain gone
the lieutenant was chief in command,
and of course his orders were of equal
force with those of the captain If present,
though at the same time the lieutenant
is liable for violating the captains in
structlons. The court to pass upon the
questions at issue is convened by the fol-
lowing order, being general order No. /,
by the record:
