held at the Central Presbyterian church
to consider the matter of prohibition. Mr.
Robert Smith presided, who, after ex-
planning the objects of the movement, in
troduced Mr.. George w. Penniman, of
Boston, who first unfolded the purposes
had in view by the temperance people,
which, in brief, were that they proposed
to fight for prohibition. He then said
there were three ways to deal with the
liquor traffic. The first was to let it alone;
the second was TO attempt to regulate it.
In the third place he advised his hearers
to have nothing TO do with the
two first ways proposed, but to go for the
evil and drive it out by prohibiting the
traffic, wholly and entirely.

An disqualification.
fCincinnati Saturday Night. |

He was one of those opinionated men
who are especially pleased to express
their views in public places. The con-
versation had turned upon a recent bold
robbery, and he had just fixed the atten-
ton of all the passengers in the car upon
q demure-l looking young man who sat
next TO him by addressing him soto voce:
'sNow, Pm detective, and you stole that
money"
AS matter of fact, the young man had
not stolen anything, nor was the older
man accusing him; he was simply about
to explain to the unsophisticated youth
how detectives operate in running down
criminal. He was playing detective
and had cast the young man as the thief,
just for instance, you know, and warming
to his subject, feeling that he had his
illustration splendidly in hand, the old
man settled right down to business.
"Yo on stole that money!" he repeated,
"and I'll show you how easily you tripped
yourself up"
Everybody in the car became intensely
interested.
"Last evening"" continued the old
man, ga person answering your descrip-
ton was observed by several parties to
pass and rc-pass the scene of the rob-
berry,
Here the lady who sat near the young
man left her seat and stood up in the far
end of the car.
''Footprints made by boots exactly Of
your size were discovered in the yard and
on the roof of the veranda, whereby
your entrance was effected, and piece
of the very goods from which your
clothes are made had been torn out and
was found adhering to a sharp point of
the iron work"
About this time the young man be-
came conscious that he had for some rea-
son been singled out by the passengers as
an object of great interest, and it sudden
Iy occurred to HIM that they might think
the old mans remarks were personal to
himself. He endeavored to get in word
or two, but the old man would brook no
interruption.
"But that's not all, he went on; "a
servant girl discovered your presence,
the alarm was given, shot fred at your
retreating figure which penetrated your
hat"
Here the audience noticed a pair of
clean-cut holes in the young mans hat.
The evidence was complete. Murmurs
of "What a pity" $50 young, too, "fhe
little scoundrel" greeted the young
mans ears.
Crimson and speechless. in his mortiti-
cation he fled the car, followed by all the
passengers but the old man.
'fGoing to let him get away?" asked the
conductor
EYES," responded the old man, keep
ing up the joke. "I pity the poor boy"
"Well, you'll have to pay his fare,
then. l didn't get it." And that's
where the joke turned on the old man.

SALTWATER.

The members of Mueller Post G. A. K.
are much elated over the complete success
Of their late excursion.
MIR. Gaeck was arrested on charge
of assault. The suit was dismissed by
Judge Lee, there being no evidence to
sustain the accusation.
John Chester, the man charged with
the robbery on the Jennie Hays, was to-
day taken on board the boat by Chief of
Police Shortall, where he was re- arrested
by the sheriff of Polk county, Wis.
An insane man was taken up by the
police and lodged in the city jail He is
Norweign and a recent arrival In this
country. Nothing in addition to the
above could be learned in regard to him
as he cannot be induced to speak.
A novel mode of getting rid of a de-
linquent tenant was that resorted to by
Mr.. LaMoin, which was to remove the
windows from the building occupied by
the non-paying tenant. The matter was
up before the municipal court to-day for
hearing but was continued until to-
morrow.
North Main street in the vicinity of
Staples mill is IN most wretched con-
dition, being almost impossible for foot
passengers without resort to the platform
on the east side, where one is in imminent
danger of having limb broken by the
falling timber as it comes down from the
mill above.
The little crazy girl was on the streets
again to-day. She was taken home by
Officer Costello, after exhibiting to the
officer her fieetness of foot. She certainly
should not be allowed at large, for IN adj
dition to her idiocy, size Is subject TO fits,
often falling down IN the streets. The
child will probably be permanently cured.
Some men employed at the driving park
accused colored man of stealing
from them, which the man denied. They
then undertook to choke out a confession
by hanging him up in a tree, gallows
style, they lowered him, however, before
life was extinct. After extorting a
promise from him to leave the city he was
allowed to depart. The black man is
probably dishonest-such is his reputa-
ton. But such lawless acts are mex
cusable.

FARGO, d. T., Aug. 1O.-This morning
about Z O'Clock special train, bearing
nearly 200 representatives of the Wis
consin newspaper fraternity, accompanied
by the GAINESVILLE, Wis, cornet band of
twenty three pieces, arrived in Moor
head, and after breakfasting proceeded TO
Fargo.
They were met at the train by Stones
Northwestern band of this city, and es-
corted to the Opera house, both bands,
numbering thirty-eight pieces, discours-
ing lively music.
The Opera house was very prettily and
artistically trimmed with tufts of wheat,
oats and barley stalks. Col. Pat DOMAIN,
of the Argus, with his usual elaborate
ness of speech, delivered the welcoming
address, which was replied to by Hon.
Chas. Seymour. newly appointed consul
to Canton, China.
w. G. Piummer,' of the Republicans
followed this gentleman with a brief
witty speech, to which Judge Lyon, chief
justice of the supreme court of Wiscon-
sin, responsed.
Among the noted personages on the
rostrum were Gen. Lucius Fairchild, late
governor of Wisconsin and minister to
Spain, and President Chaplin, Belolt COL
lege.
at the conclusion of the entertainment
at the Opera house, which consisted of
speeches, music by both bands, and selec-
lions by the Fargo Glee club, the party
were taken for drive through the city,
after which they were dined at the sew
eral hotels.
Before the party took its departure
Gen. Fairchild delivered short but able
| address, which was heartily cheered
The party then embarked, and amid
cheers of the citizens the train moved out
for Grand Forks.
The party expressed themselves highly
pleased with the kind and generous treat
ment that was received at the hands of
the citizens, who in turn took pride in ex-
tending every courtesy and attention that
would add to their enjoyment.
| The only marring feature of the occa-

chairman of the committee on reception,
who did not put in an appearance until
repeatedly sent for, and then arrived too
late to take any material part in the exer-
