its results than was at first supposed. The
action of Father Barry, pastor of the

Catholic parents from his pulpit to with
draw their children from the public schools,
has occasioned widespread consideration
among Catholic parents, and member OF
that denomination, whose knowledge COW
ers large number of parishes, says that
the request will generally be complied with
after the summer vacation. In other
words, there viii be wholesale withdraw

The Old Dodge Scandal Revived

A special telegram from New York states that
Mrs Fannie Dodge, widow of Ossian E.
Dodge, who lived for many years in St Paul,
and who vas somewhat famous as singer,
sailed from that port to join her children in
England. 1t will be remembered that some
years ago Dodge accused his wife of unfaithful-
ness, and the charges made against her and
several prominent citizens made great scandal
at the time Dodge suddenly disappeared, tax
ing with him the two children, boy and girl,
and went to England, where he finally died. He
purposely left his wife in ignorance Of the chill
drens whereabouts, and for long time she
was unable to find any trace of them. Mean
while she came that city, and by hard work as a
clerk or housekeeper she accumulated some
money. Through the efforts, it ia said, Of Bish-
op Whipple of Minnesota and others, the parties
who possessed the secret of the residence of her
children were induced to give her the informa-
ton she wished, and she has gone to live with
her children, for whose support their father
left a competency. Per contra, St Paul par
ty, who is in a position to know, says that she
will never find her children, not being the pro-
per custodian Of them under the circumstances,
that they are well provided for out of the wreck
Of their fathers estate, and that they shall not
share any part Of it with their mother.

SENATOR EDMUNDs is in South Carolina
for the purpose of recuperating his health,
and while in Charleston was subjected to
an interview in which he expressed sur
prise and pleasure with the improvement
and appearance of the city since his last
visit there ten years ago. Referring to the
relations between the lately warning sections,
he said the people of the north had no
dislike of the South. They simply had q
distrust, and the only way to overcome that
distrust and induce an influx of capital and
a class of intelligent laborers; to give every
man the right to have and exercise his own
opinion, and. d.even to undergo the inconven-
fence of allowing every man one vote.
The effect of such course upon state
like South Carolina undoubtedly had its
difficulties, and the dominance of the un-
educated majority certainly had it's dangers;
but he was not prepared to say that the only
remedy for the evil was the suppression of
the franchise

Ex-SECRETARY OF WAR. Gov. RAMSEY,
of Minnesota, thinks the question of putting
the Indians under the control of the war
department will not be again discussed, be-
cause there is no necessity for any juris-
diction over these people, and because
practically, as he says, we have no longer
frontier. The advance of civilization from
the East has met the immigration from the
West. The two meeting have made the
frontier disappear almost entirely. Another
important fact is that the worst of the Indian
troubles are over. Indian hostility may
fash up, or flicker occasionally like
smouldering fire. but that will be all. The
old war governor is remarkable for always
looking on the bright side cf things. To
him every cloud has literally silver lining.
Though others may not be able to discover
it with the naked eye, he can always discern
it shining through the blackest vapors.
This popularity is sometimes virtue at
any rate it tends to happiness and longevity.

AN EXTRAORDINARY WINTER.
Some Interesting Facts and Comparison
Concerning the Fall of Snow.

Some Interesting Facts and Comparisons
Concerning the Fall of Snow.
Among eastern people, says the Pioneer
Press, who from their experience OF winter
in the upper belt of the Atlantic states, are
accustomed to associate deep SHOWS with
the low winter temperatures of high north
ern ATTITUDES, the notion has always widely
prevailed that because the winters of Min
nesota were usually as cold as those of Can
ada or Northern New York, the SHOWS are
also as deep; and this impression is likely
to be confirmed by the remarkable series of
snowstorms and the extraordinary depth of
SHOWS and snowdrifts which blockaded the
railroads of southern Minnesota during the
past winter. In fact, the winters of Min
nesota are. as a rule, characterized by their
extreme dryness. The average snowfall of
Minnesota is less than one fourth or one
fifth that of the same latitudes on the Attain
tic slope. According to the meteorological
records kept at Fort Smelling, near st. Paul
and Minneapolis, for the nineteen years up to
and including 1856, the mean annual winter
precipitation of snow, reduced to water,
was less than two inches; or, to be exact,
1872 2inches-equivalent to about 19. 20 inches
of snow for the three months of December,
January and February. Comparing this
with the mean annual winter precipitation
in places in nearly the same latitude in
northern New England and Lower Canada,
we have the following results, obtained
from the same sources, the consolidated
meteorological reports of the war depart

save that bouy and the members of the old
