Il TRTO OF ROBBERS.

They are Picked Up by Officer Babe, and
Portion of the Goods S. olen Recovered.
Officer Babe did good piece of work
last evening. While he was patroling his
beat on Bridge square he SAW fellow
named ChrisSmith come out from the shad-
ow of Elevator A, and pass down Third street
to the saloon called the Business Mems
home" The attention of the officer was di-
rected to Smith by the fact that he had un-
der his arm a box or small package He kept
his eyes on him till he saw him enter
the saloon, and was about to
go over and investigate the matter, when
he saw apother fellow come down the street
in the same way and apparently from the
same spot. This second fellow proved to
be John Singstaff, who belongs over in
West st. Paul. He kept his eyes on this
second one until he saw him enter the
same saloon. He. too, had a package.
The officer went over to the saloon, and on
entering he saw the packages the fellows
had laid out on the billiard table. He be-
gan to mako inquiries about the matter,
when Smith shot out of the door, followed
" ouO OinC0I, WHO COiiareQ MIN
and brought him back. He then arrested
both, together with the bar tender. F.
Stoltz, and took all three with the pack
ages to the city hall. On opening the
packages it was found they consisted of
six pairs of gloves, two dozen neckties,
ten handkerchiefs, four pocket books, one
revolver, twenty-one pairs of button cuffs,
six pocket knives, thirty shirt studs, two
pair socks, two pair pants, two flannel shirts,
overcoat, and various other similar articles.
all of which had beeu stolen, as the sequel
showd, from Benjamin Lewis store, No.
50 East Seventh street, between
Cedar and Minnesota streets. Officers
Baer and Nugent went down to the store
and found that the robbers entered the
building through the door in the rear by
breaking Of the bolt. All three of the men
were locked up.
The vigilance and watchfulress, as well
as the good Judgment Of Officer Babe are
to be commended. It was a very credit
able performance.

= HARD PIECE OF BUSINESS,

Two Girls have Horse Taken away from
Them on the Highway and are Com
PEELED to Walk Home.
Yesterday an act was performed BY
some man in Minneapolis, that, on the
story of the two girls interested, seems to
have been gross outrage. These two
girls live in st. Paul, and are not what
are considered proper persons. Still this
furnishes no excuse whatever for the in
jury perpetrated upon them.
THE PARTICULARS.
The story, as told by
tbs girls is substantially
as follows; They hired horse and sleigh
of Mr.. Nichols, on the corner of Fourth
and st. Peter streets, and drove out on the
road TO Minneapolis. When some distance
beyond the stock yards, a man, with lady
in the sleigh with him drove up, and tax
ing possession Of the horse and sleigh the
girls had, ordered them to abandon the
team, and pushed one CO the girls out of
the way because she did not move quite
fast enough to suit the ideas CT The
man. whoever he was. The
officer OF the law, ard had on a buffalo
overcast, though he did not show any star
or other indication of being all ottsscer
Having taken the team away from them
the man hitched the horss behind his own
sleigh a, d drove of with it to Mime
aposis, leaving the girls to walk back
through the snow to st. Paul. They started
on foot for this city but fortunately, for
some one who was driving this way, had
the kindness and humanity to pick them
up and bring them to St. Paul. It was
about 5 O'Clock when the team was taken
away from them, and soon after the po-
lice % Minneapolis teiephoned to the po-
lice Of st. Paul that the team was in the
possession of the police. This would seem
to indicate that the man who took it from
the girls was q policeman. If he was, the
question naturally arises as to why, if he
was authorized to take the team, he did
nor take the girls into custody. II they
were intoxicated or misbehaving them
selves, his duty was clear. If they were in
that condition to such an extent that it be-
came his duty as en- officer to take the team
away from them, it was equally his duty
to take them into custody. Il seems, how
ever. that the morse naQ not Dee0 ABUSED,
for Mr. Nichols telephoned up to Mime
apoiis and was informed that the horse was
in good condition and uninjured.
This class of people go not
seem to have any rights that
any one seems bound to respect, and pos
sibly they will have no redress, but if the
story they tell, as above briefly set forth,
is {rae, q wrong and an outrage was perpe-
tratad upon them. They certainly were
not intoxicated when they were brought
back TO st. Paul about o'clock last night.
OCa OF them was seriously prostratea by
the excitement and exposure, and was
placed under Che care Of physician. and
owing to the peculiar situation was rega.-
ed as he;nv in a critical confIitinn

To the Editor Of the Globe:
d.. Thomas Interpretation of the Tri-
dentine decree, his knowledge of the life
and writings of Bellarmine, and his con-
lecture that Bishop Ireland would resort
to a nom de plume to answer the cheap lit
erature of ST. Paul's pulpit rest on the
same foundation good doctors fertile
Imagination. Bishop Ireland was in the
woods of Wright county, far from news
papers and controversy during the discus
sion, and knew nothing of the matter until
his return last Thursday. If he sees fit
to answer what the hum
blest of his flock could readily
refute, it will be seen what a rare oppor-
tunity DR.. Thomas has unwittingly given
him of showing the absurdity of Protest
antism.
Smiths dictionary and Mosheim's trans
lator were cited as admitted Protestant
authorities for the true meaning of the de-
cree. Catholics we'll know that Protestant
controversaiists cannot divest themselves
OF their inherent suspicion OF Catholic
''duplicity." Hence it we're time and ink
wasted to transcribe Catholic authorities
for them.
Attention was paid solely to the mean
ing of the decree of Trent, because
the true, meaning of the decree once es-
tablished. the doctor long and labored
argument is roc ct s5s'oetersa asihu.
It is really misfortune Cor Protestant
ism that the Caiholic church does not
leave the Formulating and Interpreting of
her DEGREES to Proteatt.nt doctors of divin-
lit. CATHOLIC.

OF the plants themselves, because
they have grown in clear water.
The experience OF those who have
used these mucks in South Florida,
as well as in all places of the same
geological formation along the coast
as far north as Long Island, has
proved, that if this muck is not ''plant
food" i'll its natural state, it can be
made such when mixed into our
sandy soil. Ard when we apply
another product of our lands, the
-narls, found extensively with the
mucks, lands before considered
almost barren become sufficiently
rich to produce sugar cane in the
greatest perfection. Liebig once
taught that if any manure, as barn
yard manure, was burned and the
ashes applied to the soil, just as good
results would ensure as if the mas
nure itself were applied. But the
experience OF practical men has
proved that the great analytical
chemist was mistaken, and he was
compelled to retract his position.
There is reason to believe that Dr..
Nichols may also be mistaken.
Not only do the rank negotiations
of South Florida grow in still, clear
water, but myriads OF animal exis
tence grow with them and are incor~
porated with them in decay. These
are lndisputed food for plants, and
require no other preparation or ex-
pense than an application to the soil

The Banana.

IA Louisiana correspondent OF the
Prairie Farmer gives a description
OF the banana, its mode of growth,
propagation and product Welded,
from which we make the following
extract:
The banana is not properly tree.
but plant OF leafy, succuient growth,
OF the genus MuSd. The stalk is
formed of the stems OF the leaves in
concentric layers, reaching with its
leaves, height OF fifteen or twenty
feet, and eight TO ten inches in thick,
ness, and contains no woody fibre.
From the centre comes the first bear.
ing stem, which turns and grows
downwards. The end has the ap-
pearance of an ear OF corn with pur-
pie shuck. This untolds one leaf at
a time, displaying two rows-eight

delicate blossoms, until it attains a
length of Two or three feet, covered
with fruit. The leaves are q marvel
Tor size and appearance, sometimes
reaching length of six feet, and
eighteen inches in width, of a glossy
pea green. The root is perennial. It
is large ard fleshy, sometimes Of the
SIZE OF hall bushel measure. from
winch put forth numerous rootlets
hall an inch in diameter. From the
man root are constantly springing
numerous suckers, which 90 to form
new plants. This being it's mode of
propagation, they can be taken off to
form new plantation, O: remain. as
may be wanted.
In suitable scil-which sbould he

1t requires about one year to mature
Its iruit, from the first appearance OF
the plant. Each stalk bears but one |
bunch OF fruit. When it is gathered
the stalk is cut down, Ten feet apart
is good distance TO plant them.
This gives over 400 per acre, and the
second year there will be ten or
Twelve plants TO each hill, and soon
occupy most OF the ground. After
the first year they require but little
cultivation, the old stalks and leaves
acting as mulch and manure, Under
favorable conditions there is no ces
satlon OF growth. New plants and
glpe irult are found at all times. and I
plantation once started lasts for
Iears. L
1t is probable that no fruit was t
ever cultivated that will yield more
