CONDUCTORS ARRESTED,
Two on the St. Paul g. Omaha Line
Bagged-S0me Others Wanted.

The st. Paul & Omaha road are after some
OF their conductors. For long time the
managers of this road have been very decid-
edly of the opinion that some of the conduc-
tors on the road were in the habit of "knock-
ing down" at the rate Of $50 per day. They
accordingly put detectives at work on the sus-
pected trains to watch the conductors, and
obtain evidence of the stealing, or as the le-
gal phraseOlOgy is, of the embezzling. The
result is that two conductors
on the eastern division were
arrested yesterday afternoon. j. w. Colgrove,
who came in on the afternoon train and H. G.
Smith who was expecting to 60 out on the
evening train. Both men were placed in Jail.
When Deputy Sheriff Harrison arrested Col
grove he found a large roll of bills on his
person, about 5000 in money. Four warrants
are known to have been issued, and it is proba-
BILE that more are out, but the matter is
kept SO very secret that 1t has
been very difficult to get the
full facts of the matter. The complaints
upon which the warrants were issued were
sworn to by Charles F. Hatch, of the st. Paul
q Omaha road. The complaint against Col
grove charges him with embezzling $43. The
one against Smith charges him with embez-
zlng $50 65.
To representative of the GLOBE, who in
terviewed Colgrove after his arrest, while in
Jail, the prisoner stated that he did not know
what he was arrested for. He had no idea,
and could not conceive. He thought
that possibly it might be that
his accounts might have been short some
day. lie had heard the warrant read and he
believed that in that it was charged that there
was shortage in his accounts OF about $40.
He was very guarded in what he said and very
He did not think the public
was much interested in these particulars and
could see no good to be accomplished by pub
fishing anything in the papers about the
case. He had a mother up the country who
would be much panied to hear of his
arrest. He evidently did not want
to say anything on the subject. Mr.. Colgrove
has been conductor ON the road for fifteen
years, and it is to be regretted that he has
been brought to this sad condition. He was
arrested as soon as he had brought the train
in.
Smith, who expected to go out on the even.
ing train was arrested about the middle of the
afternoon, but kept his own counsels and
would not say anything until he had secured
counsel. Other arrests will follow, without
do ubt, but just how many no one can tell.
The managers of the road are very decidedly
Of thesppinlon that for long time this steal
ing has been going on, and that the conduc
tors have been doing good business in this

"Rsligion of the Beautiful /"

The Rev. Emory Miller, D. D., deliv-
cred an interesting and instructive lee
ture to large audience at the First M.
E; church last night, on the subject of
the "Religion Of the Beautiful" The
reverend speaker first called the attention
of the audience to the contemplation of
beauty as manifested in the higher
phases of nature and idealized by art
After abiding to some Of the more en-
during and beautiful productions IN the
realms of nature, sculpture and painting
he asserted the principle that the highest
manifestations of beauty flowed from the
union of love and innocence, the har-
monious workings of which gave rise to
the sublimest moral beauty As distin-
guished from this highest form of beauty
which implied the abnegation of self in
the interests of good and morality, the
lecturer described in fgurative and edo.
quent speech the line of beauty that per-
meated the natural world in its clouds,
rivulets, streams, oceans, mountains and
all forms of delight.
He also elOquently defined the province
and workings of intellectual sublimity,
as manifested in the burning language of
the orator, or the words of the poet and
scholar. He described the devotion of
the soldier as superior to these from the
fact that he exercised the trait of sacri-
flee, and IN support of this he named in
cidents in the lives of Hannibal, Napoleon
and others, whose patriotism and deeds
had electrified and thrilled the world.
But in all these there was the selfishness
of ambition. 1t was not the sublimlty
that flows from perfect love and inno-
cence. This was only found in self sac
rifice; to find this man must turn his
gaze to Calvary, the high point of moral
sublimity of the world; receptive TO loves
ennObling thrill we're the words "Father
forgive them, for they know not what
they do"
Religion only developed the moral sub
Unity that survived the wreck of time
and drew the admiration Of mankind in
all ages; men of the world have shown
their devotion and love for friends and
country, but religion must furnish the
love that went out in kindly deed and ut
terance for an enemy The speaker re-
ferred to several scriptural characters
whose lives had been characterized by
moral sublimity of the most exalted and
enduring type.
Heroism was nothing but moral sub
Unity. The moral heroes who had con-
quered self, and those who had loved
their enemies, could only realize the
glory that came from perfect love and
innocence. Those whose innocence had
become holy; those who had practised
self-abnegation, they only could appreci-
ate the thrill of joy that come from moral
purity.
He closed with glowing apostrophe to
the power and beauty of love and re-

RUSSIAN REFUGEES.
Arrival of 425 Victims of the ktef and
Warsaw Riots, at Philadelphia.

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 2S-The steamer Jill,
nois, with 1875 Russian refugees, mel, women
and children, arrived here to-day. The steam
er was received down the river. Although
partly i'll, they show traces of recent suffering.
But one death occurred on the voyage,
child of three years. When the steamer ar
rived at the dock and the emigrants and bag
gage were examined, cars of the Pennsylvania
railroad were backed down close to the vessel
aad the entire party taken to the old Pennsyl-
vania railroad depot, where they had supper
and change of clothing. The depot is pro-
vided with eating, sleeping and bathing rooms
and hospital. The refugees are in charge OF
j. r. Ltmar, of Kamanitz, Poland, driven
from his home two months ago. The rest
came mainly from Kief and Warsaw: Most
are tradesmen and few farmers. They say
when the riots occurred at Warsaw some OF
them were driven out of the city at the point
of the bayonet and forced to fly with their
wives and children. They were without mon
ey and without friends, but contrived to get
beyond the borders of Russia, being aided in
their flight by sympathizing coreligionists
and friends.

A Crazy Woman.

AS the train ON the St. Paul & Omaha
road was coming towards st. Paul We'd
nesday afternoon. at the rate of twenty
five miles an hour, q woman jumped
from it. AS soon as possible the train
was stopped and run back to the spot,
near EIroy, where, to the surprise of
everybody, the woman was seen
walking away just as though moth
ing had happened. The train
was stopped, and she was again
taken on board. AS strange as it may
seem she was not injured at all. There
was not even a scratch upon her person
to denote that she had made the jump.
DR.. Murphy happened to be on the train,
being on his way home from Chicago.
When she was again on board it was not
difficult to discover that she was out of
her right mind. She was accordingly
carefully watched, and when the train
arrived here she was taken to the Sher-
man house. So far as could be learned
she was on her way to Winnipeg.
She talked good deal about
her husband or St. Vincent, and mani
tested an anxiety to reach Winnipeg as
soon as she could She had little boy
with her who appeared to be as crazy as
she is. She was sent to Winnipeg last
night

Use Of School Houses for Public Meetings,


Etc.
Attorney General Hahn has furnished
Superintendent Kiehle the following
opinions:
l. Question-In the Interpretation of
sec. %, chap. 36, G. S., 1873, can the
trustee rent the school house, except upon
the petition of majority of the legal
voters?
Answer-No. A law permitting or au-
thorizing the use of the school house
upon conditions is equivalent to saying
that it cannot be so fused, if the condi-
lions are not complied with.
2. Question-Haye the trustees the
right to allow the minority to use the
house for the same purpose for which
they have allowed its use by the major
ityl
Answer-The law provides that its use
may be granted on the petition of ma
iority, not to the majority. The petition
must be that it be granted for .divine
worship, or Sabbath schools" etc., and
not to any particular denomination. Up
on this condition the trustees have au-
thority to consider the application, and
allow the use upon such conditions as the
interests Of the district require.
