from the usual order and the large audience
was entertained by the joint efforts of Miss
Essie Hunter of Chicago, sand VIM. Eible of
Minneapolis, famaliarly known as "Scrap
Iron Bill, upon the temperance question.
Miss Hunter was first introduced and recited
in very effective manner a poem entitled
1.-THE Wife's Appeal" which showed her to
be an elocutionist of no small merit. After
singing by the West st. Paul male quartette,
MIR. Eible proceeded to deliver one of
his peculiar temperance lectures in
which he took strong ground
against the license system. The
speaker made very strong physical argn.

THE HAvERHILL FIRE.

Great Crowds Viewing the Ruins-Pre-
pairing to Resume Business.
HAvRRH1LL, Mass, Feb. 19-The city is
full of strangers viewing the ruins of the fire.
Several safes were opened and the contents
mainly found unimpaired. Many, however,
were broken by falling from the upper stories
and in them shone melted gold and silver.
The severe beating of one thief by
citizens and police restrained others and no
robbery is reported. While the buildings
in many places still blaze and smoke, and the
steam envelopes all. Every one is hopeful
that most of the manufactures will fill their
orders, having made arrangements to start
business tomorrow morning. The burnt dis
trict will be rebuilt more substantially than
before. Haverhill has received blow, but is
not ruined. The funeral of Fireman German
took place to-day.
On Washington street eighty. four business
firms and individuals suffered loss nearly
total of 5000, 900, while the loss of others in
the same street aggregates $120, 900.

A Curious Case.

About o'clock last evening well Dress
ed lady apparently about IS years of age went
into Snyder's candy store, in the block be-
tween Sixth and Seventh streets, and in G. half
staggering way seated herself. Inquiry was
made of her in regard to what was the matter
with her and where she came
from, but no satisfactory reply
was given, and in fact, not much
reply at all. The proprietor not know
ing what to do under such circumstances,
concluded to turn her over to the police. He
accordingly called in Officer Palmer, who took
her over to the City hall. She finally, in reply
to questions, stated that she belonged to the
Merchants hotel, and had taken laudnum to
quiet the neuralg ia. Acarriage was procured,
and she was sent down to that hotel. She was
considerably under the influence of the mar.
cotic, but could walk pretty well. When she
first went into the candy store she was partly
benumbed with cold, and was better after she
got warmed. She was well dressed and very
respectable looking lady, and on a more care
full inspection showed no indications of having

eonIy a Farmers Daughter.

OF the highly interesting and successful
play, "Only Farmers Daughter" which
will be presented at the Opera house to-mor-
row evening, the New York World speaks as
follows:
"Only Farmers Daughter has a pro-
nounced melodramatic tone; it is highly emo
tional, and it might be said sensational, and
having strong plot, and being very skillfuly
constructed, it follows there are many strong
situations and plenty of life and action all
acting play. In addition to this, it should be
said that the dialogue is as good as the plot
and the process Of the development that the
parts are nearly all effective, and that the
d+nouement is novel, ingenious and highly
impressive. The company was of more than
average excellence. The performance, in fact,
had very few defects, and was received with a
degree of interest and an amount of applause
accorded TO but few entertainments.

Oakland Farm, Minneapolis


One of the most honorable and agreea BILE
gentlemen in Minnesota connected with the
breeding of the horse, and almost as a natural
sequence, a patron of turf sports, is Mr.. J. C.
Oswald, of Minneapolis. Mr.. Oswald's breed
ing operations were gone into originally more
as matter of relief from the wear and tear
of his large business, pure love for the noble
horse, and of quiet though intense enjoyment
of turf sports, than with any idea of profit,
or of rising to any exalted position among the
breeders of the country. Mr.. Oswalds stud
is located on his beautiful farm of 160 acres,
just on the outskirts of the city. At the head
is the horse Andrew Burnham, a rich brown
16 hands, foaled 1879, sire Milwaukee, son of
Rysdyk's Hambletonian, dam Brunette, by
Scrogg's Medoc, son of American Eclipse.
Andrew Burnham is good mover, and
has demonstrated his ability to transmit
his fine form and action to his get.
At the farm now Mr.. Oswald has eight
brood mares as follows.
Black Hawk Belle, untraced, foaled in 1857
fast road mare and good producer, having
safe in foal to Andrew Burnham.
Flora Belle CHI. M, foaled 1879, sire Prince,
son of Col. Kings Pathfinder, dam Black
Hawk Belle; record 2:311a.

Jenny Lind, br. m, foaled 1878, sire An.
drew Burnham, dam the Libby mare.
Zuela, bl. M, sire Ensign's Hambletonian,

In addition to the above Mr.. Oswald has
several colts and FLIES. Last fall he had the
misfortune to lose by the then prevailing dis
temper, the bay horse Gen. slegel, foaled in
1878 by North Star Membrino. Gen. Siegel
had been tracked little for two seasons and
had just begun to show a fine turn of speed.
the possession of well balanced head and
good staying qualities, and a good performer
was confidently looked forward to when his
death occurred as above.
Mr. Oswald Is an enthusiastic lover and lib.
eral patron of turf sports, but the trickery and
sharp practices, too often connected with such
sports, is utterly detested and repudiated by
him. When he starts horse In a race his
emily order is ''Get to the front if you cam

accepts his disappointment and tries again.

Different Opinions.

We generally receive just what we
seem to expect from our fellowmsn.
Every man has both silver and base
metal in his character, and it depends
on ourselves whether he gives US the
dollar or the cent. You may perhaps
be thrown in contract with people who
are utter strangers to you at boarding.
house or hotel. Keep the conversation
keyed to the fashions. the gossip of
politics. or tawdry social ambitions,
and you shall receive nothing from
them but mere vapid innuities, dead
and wearisome as the wash of stale
water in the town gutter. Another
person comes among them. sensible
well-bred man or wOmanly woman,
and straightway they stand upright;
the loutish schOelboy is manly fellow,
the giggling belle shows herself gentle
and affectiOnate, or the hard politician
turns out to be critical scholar. The
new conner takes away from each some
fine note of human harmony to invig-
crate his own journey. Again, there
are families SO VIGOROUSLY quarrelsome
that they are strangers TO anything
like peace. But a guest comes among
them, expecting courtesy and generosi-
ty, and each member of the selfish,
grumpish household brings his better
self to sight. Men and women, pro-
perly treated, will ever give to us their
best If we demand it in the right
spirit.
