The Lower Mississippi River.

HELENA, Ark, Feb. 15.-The situation in
river matters is somewhatmore encouraging
to night, although the danger is by no means
past. Since last night there has been de-
cline of about quarter of an inch, which,
however, does not materially relieve the
pressure on the levee, which, is now thor
oughly saturated and susceptible to the beat
ing of the rough water caused by the high
winds. A large force of hands are still at
work on the levee. No further news from the
breaking leyee above or below the city. The
cred with water across Longville bottom, and
trains run only to FELTON,, four miles north of
Mariana. The Midland road is clear the en-
tire length and trains run regularly.

Fair for the Church of the Sacred Hear

Fair for the Church Of the Sacred Heart
The fair at Knau:t hall, for the benefit of
the new Catholic church on Dayton's bluff,
is promising to be complete success, the
hall on the first two evenings being already
unusually crowded, thus showing the interest
that is taken in the matter. The pluck and
enterprise shown in building a church on
DaYton's bluff. which would be an ornament
to any part of the city, Is well appreciated,
and general disposition is being shown 10
lend helping hand to the worthy object.
The hall is well filed with every kind of orna-
mental and useful articles, and the tables, pre-
sided over by the ladies of the congregation,
would, in the number of beautiful articles dis
played, as well as in the arrangement thereof,
be credit to much larger congregations.
The different singing societies will enliven
the fair each evening by some of their choicest
pieces, the Liederkranz having opened the
programme in a very creditable manner, under
the leadership of Prof Kerker. This evening
the Arion, Prof. Halter director, will produce
some of the best pieces OF this so we'll known
society, while on Saturday the Mannerchor
will also do its share to the laudable object.
The good will and zeal generally displayed
speaks well for Rev. Koberl, who is univers-
ally esteemed and beloved by his congregation
and all those that know him.

GEN. GRANTS latest grievance is the
persistent use of his name as director
Of Texas land company, after he has
twice denied all connection with the en-
terprise. The Generals time is doubtless
too much monopolized in directing the
present administration to give much time
to any other directory. This is not suffi-
Gent reason, however, to prevent the
General from being credited with having
declined at least one thing, even though
it should be maliciously limited that there
is no money in it.

the wheat raised in Minneso-
ia. If the tariff stood they could
afford to pay nineteen cents per bushel
more for Minnesota wheat than the
Manitoba wheat, land still make money
by the transaction; and this constituted
ground work for the growth of Mime
sofa as compared with Manitoba. But
what do these schemers do? They get
Mr.. Window, Minneapolis man, to go
to work on the Treasury Department and
the Treasury Department agrees that
upon every barrel of -four they make out
of Manitoba wheat, the government shall
return them eighty-nine cents. AS they
can make barrel of flour out of four
bushels of wheat this gives them re-
bate Of twenty-five and one-fourth cents
per bushel for every twenty cents they
pay! In other words they hace q premium
Of too and one-half cents per 6ushel or mine
cents per barrel to sndues them to bug Mani
to6a Dhsat in preference to Minnesota sohsat
and develop the greaoth Of Manitoba instead
Of our 0sop State.
And the farmers Of Minnesota,
who as rule have been voting the Re-
publican ticket and sustaining protec-
tive tariff, can now begin to see how it
works. The administration gives man
q premium of two and one. half cents per
bushel to induce him to raise his wheat
in Manitoba, and imposes burden of
from thirty to one hundred and twenty
cents on the dollar on every man
for every purchase he makes of
ironware, copperware, wooden or cot
ton goods and everything else in the'way
of manufactures, which he buys in Min
nesota. And for this are we Americans.
Truly the genius of these Minneapoli-
tans is something astounding. They
combine to buy the fairness wheat of
Minnesota at from ten to thirty cents less
than the market price; and then open
the gates at Pembina SO that they may be
independent of the farmers of Minneso-
ia, and have the whole valley of the
Saskatche wan to draw upon for their
wheat supplies. And they have got "the
dead-wood" on Uncle Sam. They are to
get rebate of eighty-nine
cents per barrel on every barrel
Dhich they sag was made of Manitoba
wheat. Think of that! Think of the
vista that opens into the Treasury. Think
of Bill Washburn and the Minneapolis
Millers Association in row, with their
statements in their hands, presenting
them to the astonished Treasurer of the
United States. Under that ruling there
will be no more -four manufactured at "the
seat of destiny" out of American wheat
NOT a sack-not pound. But the pro!
auctions of Manitoba will increase at a
rate for which the history of the world
can afford no parallel.
And the rest of the State stands par
alyzed in the presence of these industri.
GUS spiders who are covering the whole
country with their webs.

A Wonderful Escape.

CLEVELAND, o., Feb. 16.-Last night Miss
Maggie Moore took the Lake Shore road ct
Dunkirk to 60 to Davenport, Ia. where her
brother lives. About 2:3O this morning, then
near Ripley, Ohio. she jumped from the train
running thirty miles an hour. Strange to
say she was not injured, but was able to walk
to Ripley, where she waited for and took the
next train. Arriving here this afternoon she
was taken to the hospital and her brother tele-
graphed for. The woman explains her desper-
ate leap by saying she feared two men on the
train were about to assault her. She appears
to suffer from some mental disturbance, but
seems to have received no serious physical in
jury.

DELIGHTFUL DELLW0OD.

A New and Beautiful Suburban Paradise
The Prettiest Part Of White Bear Lake.
The beautiful shores of White Bear Lake
have long been the resort Of summer pleasure
seekers, and countless thousands have enjoyed
the cool, upland breezes which watt refresh
ment over the lovely sheet of water. 1t is the
of st. Paul, being within easy access, bus o
comparatively few minutes of time being con-
sumed in transit to and from it.
THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PORTION
of-the pretty lake shore has been heretofore
almost unexplored, and while many have en-
joyed the unsurpassed scenery Of the north
shore as they sailed by it, not one In thous-
and know that it is the finest part OF the lake
for residences, and possesses many more adj
vantages than the portion OF the shore now
improved and inhabited.
The portion of the lake now open has been
the most accessible, and hence has drawn the
people, but capital is reaching out and much
more lovely and attractive spots are being dis
covered.
On the north shore is beautiful tract of
gently rolling land extending for mile and
one half around the deep, blue bay, which af-
fords countless opportunities for the location
of charming summer homes. The land is
pretty mounds or knobs, all wooded and
gracefully attractive. The lovely spot has
been appropriately named
"DELLwOoD,"
and all who have inspected tho handsome
property allow that it Is well named.
The bay in front is deep and the shores are
hard and gravelly. The haroors are much
better than on any other part of the lake, and
the fishing is the best to be found.
The railroad passes directly IN the rear of
the elegant lots which have been laid out by
trained landscape surveyors and artists, and
trains will run to them nearly ever hour in the
day this season. This property has been divi-
vided into lots varying from one-quarter to
five acres, and they will be sold lower and on
easier terms than any other property on the
then to buy, for they are not only the best but
the cheapest See 81. q. Horton or A. K. Bar

4 NEW PHASE OF THE TARIFF
QUESTION.

No better illustration of the fraud and
mockery of our national tariff on imports
could be given than the recent action of
the Treasury Department at Washington
in giving the Minneapolis millers draw
back of eighty-nine cents on every dollar
Of custom duties paid on the importation
of wheat from Manitoba. The theory of a
protective tariff is that the home manu-
facturer cannot successfully compete
with foreign manufacturers unless he is
protected by a high duty On foreign
goods, which insures him corresponding
increase of price for his own wares To
satisfy the farming population, who are
mainly the plundered class, and to give
their abomlnation the color of fairness, it
was enacted that not only should the
manufacturer be protected from foreign
goods, but the farmers of the United
States should be protected from the com.
petition of foreign wheat, and therefore
duty OF twenty cents per bushel
was levied upon every bushel of
wheat imported into this country. But
as the United States exports wheat
and imports manufactures this
seemingly fair argument was as
one-sided as the handle of a Jug.
1t gave the manufacturers all they wanted
out of the farmers pockets and the far
mers almost nothing out of the foreign.
ers' pockets. But at last here in Mime
sofa state of things arose where
this twenty cents per bushel prom
ised to be of some use to
the American farmers. A vast
empire was being settled up in the Cana
dian provinces northwest of us, great
wheat region of almost illimitable extent,
capable of producing food enough to feed
the entire population of the world. But
the Minneapolis mlllers could not buy
this wheat and get it across the line with
out paying the government of the United
States twenty cents per bushel; and
those twenty cents were twenty argu-
ments to persuade the millers to buy

Continuance Of the Presentation Of Evil
dence as to the sobriety of Judge Cox.
The impeachment court was called to order
promptly at 10 o'clock yesterday morning,
and Chas. Ware, stenographer in Judge Cox's
district, on the stand when court adjourned
Wednesday, took the stand for cross examlna-
ton. Mr.. Ware said he was the official re-
porter of the Ninth judicial district, appoint
ed by Judge Cox. Have seen Judge Cox on
the bench when thought him under the in
fluence of liquor.
Counsellor Arctander asked permission to
introduce two additional witnesses upon this
charge having now exhausted the five allow
ed.
p Senator Miller moved the request he grant
ed, but Senator Mcdonald objected. There
being disposition to discuss the question,
and the chair peremptorily shutting off all re.
marks, Senator Case moved the court 60 into
secret session which motion was lost on q
viva voce vote.
The yeas and nays were called on the motion
of Senator Miller, and the request was re-
fused. Yeas 10; nays Is.
Senator Miller renewed the motion to GO
into secret session. He said there seemed to
be great necessity that an understanding
should be reached as to the latitude to be given
respondent in submitting evidence.
In explanation of his vote in favor of 6
secret session, Senator Powers said he was
opposed to this gag business, and he gave
| notice now that he would not vote to convict
respondent upon any article in which he had
| been limited in the presentation of witnesses
The respondent had a right to be heard, ant
| he must be heard, or no conviction could fol
low. He should. therefore, vote for secret
session. Upon the call of the roll the motion
was carried 16 to 10.
The court remained in secret session unit
1890, the discussion during the time being
earnest and animated. Upon the doors beins
reopened, the chair announced that the senate
had reconsidered its vote, and that the'twc
witnesses could be heard, and also adopted {
resolution that hereafter the number of wit
| nesses should be limited to five upon each ar
| ticle, except in case where application wa'
made and granted before such extra witnesses
| were subp9naed.
The court then took a recess to 2:30.

Tried aud Acquitted.

The case of the State against Lucius Yea
ley, charged with intent to commit robbery,
was called for hearing in the police court yester
day afternoon. It was charged that defendant
had entered the apartment of complainant last
week and after assaulting her had attempted
to secure $500 which was supposed to be in
the house.
Tae complaint swore that defendant had en-
tered her room, turned down light and de-
manded the key to her bureau drawers.
Also that upon refusal, that he knocked her
down and bruised her face with some hard in.
strument carried in his hand. The testimony
for the defense which was conducted by Messrs
AL. Hall and Samuel Mooneson, showed that
the testimony for the prosecution was circum-
stantial and several witnesses proved COM
plete abb for the other side.
The case was dismissed, when very affect
ing scene transpired, the sister Of the defend
ant embracing him in court, and the Judge
and learned counsel, who are all modest men,
were in danger of being subjected to the same
pleasing ordeal.

The Missouri, Hannibal g. St. Joe rail-
road bonds held by the school fund of
Minnesota bid fair to regain their value
in short time. The case is exceedingly
peculiar. Three million dollars in six per
cent. bonds were issued by the State in
aid of the railroad. Last summer the
company paid into the State treasury
the full amount of the principal,
and when the interest became
due on the first of January last declined
to pay it. The State having no means
of investing it, declined to pay the in
terest also. The road took the matter
into court and the q. S. Judge decides that
the company must pay the interest not
withstanding they have paid the principal.
The company now demand the return of
their three million dollars, in view of
their inability to apply it on. the debt, and
the State Treasurer claims that he can
not return It. 1t is proposed, as a com
promise, to use the money to pay other
State bonds which are now due, and in
this way allow the State to
care for the interest on the rail-
road bonds. When ex-Auditor Whit
comb sent the Hannibal & St. Joe bonds
held by this State to New York last De-
cember to sell them, with view of in
vesting IN Minnesota bonds, he found no
market owing to this middle having
stopped the payment of interest. As the
payment will now have to be made under
decision Of the court by the company, to
save their property, Minnesota will not
be q loser in the matter.
