Small Fruit Plants, Etc.

Mr.. Frank Ford, of Ravenna, Ohio, has sent
us his annual catalogue of small fruit plants,
potatoes, Early Cotton apple, Alpha tomato,
dwarf pearl tube rose, etc. In regard to straw
berries, MIR. Ford recommends planting in the
spring-the earlier the better. The catalogue
contains description of novel test very sue
cessfully made of planting strawberry vines
which cannot fail to be of interest, and very
instructive to all who read the catalogue, and
will be of especial value to all who cultivate
the strawberry.
Mr.. Ford's catalogue also contains valuable
hints on growing early tomatoes, tube roses,
etc. In fact it is full of valuable suggestions,
and no one in want of any thing in this line
should fail to send their address, and get a
copy before giving their orders
elsewhere The Cotton apple, of
which there is full de-
scription in the catalogue, from its rapid
growth snd early ripening, is admirably adapt
ed to the climate of Minnesota. Its flavor for
cooking or eating cannot be surpassed.
The GLOBE has personal knowledge of Mr..
Ford, and knows him to be a gentleman of
large experience and great success as horti-
culturist and fruit grower, and cheerfully CON-
mends him as every way reliable and worthy
of implicit confidence.
Catalogues sent free to all who apply. Ad-
dress Frank Ford, Ravenna, Ohio.

The Entertainment Last Evening.

A more thoroughly artistic and musical en-.
tertainment than the one given at the Opera
house last night has seldom been equaled in
the amusement annals of st. Paul. The audi
ence too, though not large enough to fill the
spacious capacity of the house, was keenly
alive and appreciative The recognized ability
of the artists, and the term is not a misnomer,
and the charming manner in which the pro-
gramme was varied, combined to make most
enjoyable entertainment.
Following the opening by Sebert's orches-
ira Miss BERTHE Davidson sang, in charming
manner, the cave Maria," by Luzzi.
The performance of the Rosenfleld sisters
constituted paramount feature of the even
ing's. amusement. 1t would be difficult to
imagine more artistic combination of talent
than is manifested in the varied accomplish
ments Of these gifted sisters.
Mr.. Buckelew sung "My soul to God, my
heart, my heart to He'll, +" and the selection was
given with the usual power and pleasing effect
characteristic of the ability of this gentleman
The trio, by Carrie Ettenhemer, piano,
Frances Rice, futist, and Otto Schmidt, vio-
linist, Nocturne, Behr, and b, Ungarischer
Tanz, by Brahms, proved at once the most diff
ficult and charming number of the entertain
ment.
The programme was supplemented with Sc
lections by each of the artists, and more sat-
lsfactory entertainment has never been given at
the Opera House,

PENNSYLVANIA ELECTIONS.
Democratic Successes in Philadelphia

Over to Radical Misrule and Corrup-
ton.

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 15.--Thc municipal
election passed off quietly, with heavy vote
polled Scratching was very general. The
few returns in at 1880 tonight give no indi.
cation of the result, except that Hunter for
receiver of taxes on the Democratic ticket and
endorsed by the committee of 100, is undoubt-
edly elected. The contest for the mayoralty
is close and requires the full returns to de-
eide.
Later returns from all but four wards
give King, Democrat, for mayor 2,100 ma
jority, Hunter, commissioner, 1000, and tn e
Democrats for receiver of taxes, 81, 900 ma
Iority. West, Republican, for city solicitor,
1900 majority. The four wards to hear from
will probably increase these figures,

THE HUMANE SOCIETY.
Annual Meeting of the State and Local

Annual Meeting of the State and Loca
Organizations Report of Presiden
Noyes-Committee Appointed, Etc.
The annual meeting Of the State ant
local society for the prevention of cruelt,
to children and animals was held yester
day afternoon in the rooms of the Relic
society, on Robert street.
The report Of Mr.. D. R. Noyes, presi
dent Of the State society, was read, show
ng the condition of the work.
Attention was called to instances O.
cruelty which had come under the no
tice of the society at Alexandria, where
farmer had overloaded his team, anG
another had starved a colt, Saltwater
Excelsior, Lake Park, where an arrest
and conviction had. been made, Fer.
gus Fall and Lakeland. In alluding tc
the efforts of the society in behalf Of
children, the president reported that
powerful efforts were being made to pre-.
vent injustice, crime and cruelty.
Among the good achieved by this and
similar societies was mentioned the i'm
proved cattle cars and regulations to pre-
vent cruelty at the different stock centers
of the country. Mr.. Noyes alluded to q
communication from Midersdorf, the
"Wright county lunatic,' in which he
called upon the society to prevent the
catching of little fish with big hooks and
to also have law framed making it q
crime for people to have children in cases
where parents are not able to provide for
them. This last suggestion shows that
in intentions at least he is not so much
an idiot as he had been taken for.
1t was reported that $40 fines had been
collected. Mr.. Noyes suggested that leg
islation be asked changing the name Of
the society to "The Society for Preven-
tion Of Cruelty"
On motion of Dr.. Mattocks it was de-
cided to have notices published and sent
over the State requesting that watering
troughs be erected where they were nee
essary. Messrs. Chase, Mattocks and
Rev. E. s. Williams, of Minneapolis,
were appointed as committee on publ
cation. On motion the secretary cast the
vote for the election Of officers, the same
ones being reelected as served last year.
The local society then convened, Mr..
W. S. Wilson in the chair The treasur-
er's report was read by Mr. j. 1. Jellett,
showing the receipts to have been s17622,
and the disbursements $16s.
Secretary Chase reported the number of
cases Of cruelty attended to by the society
to have been 81, two of which were prose-
cuted. Reference was also made to the
construction of number of fountains in
various parts of the city.
A general discussion ensued as to the
best means of forwarding the aims of the
society, following which the election of
officers took place, the old officers being
reelected.
DR.. Mattocks and Mr. Chase were ap-
pointed as a committee to cooperate

Improvement of the river front and navigation
at Washington, according to such plans as
may be devised by the chief engineer. Re-
jected.
Mr.. Updegraff submitted an amendment
striking out the clause appropriating 900
for improvement of New river, Va. He was
opposed to making appropriations for mud
puddles, that some men might be returned
to Congress.
A large number of amendments were offered
and rejected with the exception of one or two
verbal amendments by the majority. About
1880 the last amendment was voted upon, and
no quorum voting, the point was raised and
the committee rose.
Mr.. Reagan hoped it would be the pleasure
Of the House to allow call to compel MEM
bers to be present and to go forward with
the BILL act upon it and pass 1t or defeat 1t.
The fight might as well be made tonight as
any other time. A call of the House was
ordered.
The roll call showed the presence of 161
members, more than quorum, but1still the
doors were closed and the sergeant
was dispatched after absentees. Two or three
hours passed in vain endeavors at some ami
cable mode of settlement by which the session
could be brought to close, but 1t was the
avowed intention of supporters of the bill to
set it out while its opponents raised the point
of no quorum, whenever any vote making
necessary quorum was reached The noise
and confusion was great, and finally recess
was taken to 10 O'Clock tomorrow

AS 1t Casts Its Light on the Chicago
Markets.
Especial Telegram to the Globe. ]

Especial Telegram to the Globe.l
CHICAGO, Feb. 15.--Cables steady for spot
wheat, but the cargoes were weaker and the
bears were just itching to get on top of the al i.
ticle but were afraid of the provision market.
If the advance therein should last it would
keep prices up for everything else. 1t did not
take long after the opening, however, before
provisions got tumble and the bears went
for wheat and yelled and yelled, and succeeded
in breaking prices good round cent, but the
trading never was very Llarge, outside Or
| ders being rather scarce. Later when provis-
| ions suddenly improved wheat advanced y of
a cent, but after call has lost 4 cent again and
| looks weak.
Corn firm at opening, but soon weakened.
Later, in sympathy with wheat and assisted by
big orders from New York for July, the option
f1rmed up, but closed rather tame.
Provisions is the boss. The fluctuations
were perfectly wild and no doubt the market Is
being manipulated. Twenty-Five cents up or
down on pork was done quicker than "Jack
Robinson" might be said and to drop 10 cents
from offer to offer or open the month 10 cents
higher worth next time for lard was COM
mon feature. The closing was at the top of
the day.
While think of it, must tell you that we
are in danger of having a new kind of options
to trade in. You know perhaps that the price
for membership has been advanced to s2,-
500. Last summer memberships were sold at
S400, but on account of good business the price
advanced steadily and is now about $1,000.
There are, however, many who believe that in
a little while the price shall 60 down consid.
erably, and the other day well known MEM
Der offered actually to sell 100 memberships,
seller April, for $500 piece, and he was not
taken np
TO the Western Associated Press
CHICAGO, Feb. 15.--With regard to the
strong tone in provisions and the alleged cor
ner, some dealers say that 1t is no clique of
rich men who are bullng them, but that the
whole rank and file of spectators and provis-
ion men are confident of rise, and are buy
ing freely; that it is not heavy bullers who are
getting rich this time, but the whole crowd.
1t is believed, however, that prices are getting
to dangerous height, being about the same
as during the corner last year. Sales to-day
were higher than yesterday. Although the
market has been luctuating and nervous,
everything now depends on developments. AS
to hog and grain crops, it is held by some COM
mission men that they are shorter than here
