A Bewildered Representative.

A good joke is told of member Of the
House of Representatives from the rural dis
tricts. He came to this city comparative
stranger, but soon formed some pleasant &C
quaintances, among whom was very agree
able lady. Last week he invited her to attend
the reception at Market hall, and was delight
ed by prompt acceptance. To guard against
accidents he took the lady's card, and when
the evening of Tuesday arrived he set out full
of joyful anticipations to conduct his inamo-
rata to the scene of mirth and joyousness. IN
fortunately he was not familiar with the
streets, nor could he describe the house in
which the lady resided He wandered the
streets until he was weary and footsore, and
was finally obliged to give up the search and
return to his hotel, Disguised with himself
and mankind in general. The feelings of the
lady cannot be OWNED, but it is known that
she had made elaborate preparations for the
occasion, and would no doubt have shone in
all the resplendence of an elegant toilet. It is
probable that when the gentleman from -
next invites lady to attend ball he will have
the route from his hotel to the lady's residence
blazed in true backwoods style.

THE Republicans in the legislature are
in peck of trouble. The special COM
mittee on the Congressional apportion-
ment has let loose swarm of hornets,
and complaints of the proposed gerry
mander are beseiging them on every hand.
In order to try to reconcile all the con-
ficting interests caucus of the Repub-
ican members of both houses of the
legislature will be held either tonight or
tomorrow night, when the matter will
be discussed behind closed doors. No in
quisitive reporters arc to be admitted as
witnesses of this family quarrel, but the
true inwardness will no doubt leak out.
1t is evident even at this time that but
little of the work of the committee will
be allowed to remain, and many aspiring
politicians whose hopes have been raised
will be plunged into grief and despair by
the new deal.

try in charge of Baron Bechtalshiem, the alb
sconding Austro- Hungarian consul, embraces
Missouri. Kansas, Nebraska, Wisconsin, Min
nesota, Arkansas, Texas, Colorado, Wyoming,
and the Indian Territory, and letters continue
to be received from all over the district from
persons claiming money sent by friends in Eu-
rope through the consul and which they have
never received. Bechtalsheim belongs to
noble family in Wunzeburg, Russia, where he
has wife and children with whom he CORES.
ponds He has a brother who is general in
the Austrian army in aid-de-camp to the en-
peror, now special military envoy at st. Peters
burg. His friends heard that the family
would send him sufficient money to pay the
deficiet, but the desired remittance never came.
Outside of the affairs of his consulate he is
SAID to be deeply in debt,owing to one creditor
as much as $1,000. His books and every ar
ticle of property which he owns are said to be
covered by mortgages.

Two Divorce Suits in One Day.

Yesterday was large day for divorces, two
loud calls being made at the district court, for
separations.
First comes Jessie A. Folsome, who is tired
OF the cankering cares of welded mysery, as
experinced with her inferior half Isaac. They
were married in Massachusetts in 1878:
she is "a, and he is four years older. She
alleges that hs has abused bulliozed, and
called her vile and opprobious names. In
July, 1878, when in delicate health, it is
charged that he cruelty abused her,
in order that she might not
survive her approaching confinement
September 18th of the same year he put a pis-
tol; to her head and threatened 10 take her life.
She fled from him and has not lived with him
since. She, no doubt, will be accommodated.
CLARK VS.. CLARK.
The second case is that of Chester II. Clark
against Mary E. Clark 1t is alleged that they
were married in St. Cloud in 1867 and that
they have had three substantial pledges of the
union, all of whom are alive, and that in VIOLA
ton of her marital VOWS, without provocation
and wholly forgctful of her obligations, she
unlawfolly and cruelty deserted the plaintiff
and their three children. Since skipping out
her whereabouts have not been known, where
fore he asks for divorce and the custody of
the children.

Money at the OperasHouse Tonight.

1t is with pleasure that we call atten-

Library Association course which takes
place tonight at the Opera House
Aside from the interests of the library
which we always wish cheerfullyt to assist,
we cannot do more agreeable service
than that of commencing the attachments
of the st. Paul Dramatic club. This organ
ization, is one of which st Paul is Justly
proud. The play Of "Money" is rich in
opportunity for all that chaste and pleas
ing effect becoming ladies and gentlemen,
and, presented with such cast as is ar
ranged for tonight, will not fail to
charm the audience. 1t is great sacr1-
flee of personal feeling for amatuer
actors to appear in public, and this fact
constitutes this occasion very great con-
tribution on the part of the Dramatic
club, in behalf of the library.
It is hoped that crowded house will
assure the gentlemen and ladies that
their offering is appreciated, and their
interest in the library, supplemented by
the intelligence and worth of st. Paul in

Il Correction.
To the Editor of the Globe.

o Cue EQlUOT Oh lne
The attention of the undersigned hav-
ing been called just now, for the first
time, to paragraph found in the HStill-
water Items'' of the DAILY GLOBE Of the
3lst inst, we request space to make a
correction of the following untruthful
statement, viz:
It is perhaps matter not generally known
that an investigation has been going on in the
Methodist church to ascertain the truth of the
chal ges made by the pastor against one of his
congregation. The member in question has
been hard worker in the church here for
eighteen years and member of the Methodist
church for nearly forty years He has repu-
tation for honesty and uprightness second to
no one in this city, and yet the charges
against him were subsantiated, even after wit
nesses swore directly in conflict with the pas
tors testimony. We have yet to meet with
one man who believes him guilty
First-lt is not true that our pastor
made the charges against the accused.
But this was done by committee of lay
men-his peers, signed all three ~ of
the charges.
Second-It is not true that the "expel-
led' had been "a hard working member
for eighteen years. His connection In
all amounts to only little more than
seven years. He came to us from the
Presbyterian church, August 10Th, 1875,
about four and half years ago. The
time is unimportant; it is the question
guilt that concerns the purity of the
church.
Third-Concerning any reputation for
'hOnesty and uprightness," in the church,
this was only one of the three charges,
that an able and impartial committee
brought from three different churches in
st. Paul, were called to consider in the
light of the testimony, documentary" and
otherwise The committee were atndni-
nous IN sustaining all these charges.
Fourth-It is not justice to our pastor
to connect his name prominently with
this trial He did all he could to prevent
it; and when he found it must come, and
as pastor he was expected to preside in
the trial, he requested the pre-
siding elder to appoint some stranger
to all the facts to preside, and
he was excused at his own request. This
shows plainly that he was anxious that
mittee from abroad would give the ac-
cused a fair trial, aeAach they certainly
did.
rectly in conflict with the PASTORS testi-
mony"-this IS false. There was abund-
ance of evidence that was not presented
on the part of the prosecution. We are
panied to have to make this public de-
tense on the part of the church and pastor,
but being assaa7ed ace aoiU tell the truth, but
decline any responsibility in giving pub
licity to this matter which only concerns
tho churcb ac pofbip r uac riuop tho
public by the church or pastor. And if
only the truth had been stated to the
reporter, or, if stated, had not been exag-
Grated By the reporter" then the under
signed would have been relieved of this
unpleasant duty. Here let 1t rest, IRE say.

SENATOR MATT H. CARPENTER, of
Wisconsin, died yesterday as was expec-
ted. Thus has passed away one of the
most brilliant men of this generation-a
man of many mental excellencies, and
many moral faults. He was an ornament
to the Senate, where his intellectual
powers made him leader among leaders.
One of the brightest pages in his public
career was his famous position on the
outrages perpetrated by the carpet bag
gers in Louisiana, in which matter he
stood alone in his party as the champion
of human rights and free suffrage. The
deceased Senator very sensibly requested
that his remains be cremated, and this
request will be complied with if possible.

CONGRESSIONAL ApPoRrroNuENr.

A circular was distributed through the
Legislature yesterday. giving new pro-
posed Congressional apportionment,
which has the following preface:
A plan for Congressional apportionment,
designed to subserve the general public in
terest, and which, if adopted, will prevent
three-sevenths 90 of our Representatives
falling within the two cities that have hereto
fore received nineteen-twentieths 1920 of the
benefits derived from the general government.
The point Of all this is to put Ramsey
and Hennepin counties into the same dis
trict, instead of separating them as the
committee have done in their report.
Here is the way the "plan" has it.

was $2.05 at Cleveland. The cost Of refining,
barreling, and all expenses, including a re-
fner's profit of half dollar q barrel, is, &C.
cOrding to the testimony of experts, $2.75
barrel. To bring it by rail to Chicago costs
seventy cents, making the total cost $3.50 for
a barrel of fifty gallons, or eleven cents q gal
Ion. The price the Standard charges in Chi
cago is nineteen and three-fourths cents gal
lon, in which, as the difference between eleven
and nineteen and three-fourths cents, there is a
tax on the public of eight and three-fourth
cents. This tax is transmitted by the middle
men, jobbers, aAd retailers to the consumer.
When at twenty-five cents a gallon the work.
ingman buys kerosene because it is cheaper
than gas, or the student because it
is better, each pays the Standard this tax
of eight and three-fourths cents gallon.
pays yearly tribute to the Standard of S32,
the income from SS00in the four per cents. In
Pennsylvania, the tax levied by the Standard
above all expenses and legitimate profits Is
calculated by an expert at fourteen cents a gal
Ion. This makes yearly tax on the light in
most general use in that State of SO 900.
The whole country consumed last year at
Putting the Standard tax, to avoid all posi-
bility of exageration, down to five cents a gal
Ion, we have a levy ON the whole country of
$11 ,000, 900, besides the millions taken from
the railroads in rebates These, according to
the sworn evidence of the officers of the rail-
roads and the known figures of shipments,
amounted in 1878 to $6,96O,S40, and
in the period between October II, 1877,
and March 81, 1879, to $10,151 ,21S.
These figures make reasonable the cur
rent estimate that the Standard pays dividends
of 81 100000 month. 1t can do this and
have millions left to pay the suits of refineries
it has leased and keeps idle, its backsheesh to
railroad men, the brides it has had to give
judges, State legislatures and State inspectors,
and its salaries of hundreds of thousands of
dollars month to men whom it has turned
out of the business, and who are acting as its
paid agents. To-day the only visible hope of
cheap light for the people of this country is
the discovery, announced by the Atlantic cable
on January 2Sth, that in The Hanover petro-
leum district in Germany basin has been
found which is thought by experts to be, be-
You'd doubt, as large and rich as the one in
Pennsylvania. In Europe such alliances be-
tween the refners and railroads and the refn-
ers as created the Standard oil company are i'm
possible. German oil wells, German refneries
and the Canadian canals may yet give the PEG
pie of the interior of this continent what the
American Standard and the American railroads
have denied them-cheap light.

senting votes. All references to inequali-
ties in population, to constitutional pro-
visions, or to the injustice of the repre-
sentation accorded to certain localities
were received with derisive laughter, and
all amendments designed to remedy these
inequalities or to conform the bill to prin-
ciples of justice were voted down with
substantial unanimity The reading of
the constitution was derided, and the
member who presumed to suggest obedi-
ence to its provisions was interrupted at
every sentence, and obliged to take his
seat without completing his quotation.
Those who admire hoggishness in hui
man beings had ample reason to be
pleased at the proceedings in connection
with this bill. The Republicans grabbed
everything, simply because they had the
power to do so, and trampled upon the
rights of the minority with utter ruth
lessness, seeming to regard the joke the
better in proportion to the enormity of
the outrage perpetrated. Protests were
of no avail, and though several members
of the minority pleaded for justice, they
failed absolutely of their purpose.
If might makes right there is no doubt
but the Republicans are justified in their
course. If there is any principle involved,
however, the the people are entitled to
representation in the body that maker
the laws and imposes the taxes-then a
more fragrant outrage was never perpe-
trated upon very large fraction of the
people of State than that committed
last evening by the passage of the legis-
lative apportionment bill by the House
of Representatives When the Republi-
can chickens come nome to roost there
will be long account to settle.

To the Editor of the Globe.
Allow me to rectify few errors which in
advertently crept in your report of the French
entertainment at Minneapolis last evening.
The Rev. gentleman therein referred to is, we
suppose, Rev. u. L. Chandonnet, pastor of the
French church at Minneapolis, and whose
name is strangely jumbled by your types. No
address was there made by j. c. s. Corrigin,
whoever that person may be; Mr.. J. B. A.
Paradis is undoubtedly the gentleman whom
your reporter had in his minds eye. Finally,
Mr.. Michaud spoke in French, and not in En-
glish. Barring also the number of the dieuce,
which is greatly moderated in your columns,
your report is quite correct. Yours resIect.

THE Republican caucus of the national
House of Representatives has resolved to
oppose a eapportionment based upon
qny other basis than membership of
5l9. This action antagonizes the bill of
Mr.. Cox, and renders the passage of any
bill at this session exceedingly remote.
The Democrats are not working as heart
ily together on this matter as could be
desired,l but the fact that their oppo-
nents have make it! a partisan measure
may serve to reunite them.
