O.. o. OF 4. at nianeiouka.

About 200of the delegates to the recent
Catholic Temperance union OF America, con.
vention at st.Paui, visited Minnetonka yester-
train. The steamer Belle of Minnetonka was
unanimously selected as the one on
which the tour OF the lake
should be made and the party
started for the Hotel Lafayette, where it was
intended to spend the day. The run across
the lake was beguiled with music by the band
on the saloon deck, and some delightful vocal
selections by some OF the fair silver voiced
delegates who gathered around the piano In
the cabin. It was proposed to spend the dsy at
the Hotel Lafayette, but they were so charmed
with their accommodations on the big boat
that on the arrival at Lafayette only few dis.
marked, the maj ority pref ring to continue
the trip TO the upper lake. Those stopping at
the Lafayette filled up the day boating, fish
ing, etc., taking the boat again for Wayzata
at o'clock. The party remaining on the
Belle passed a very pleasant day. Steward
LYDIA served them very satisfactory dinner
and received many compliments for his skill
and kind attentions. On the return trip an
impromptu court was organized on the deck
OF the steamer, and T. NJ. DAILY tried on
charge OF an attempt to commit blgamy, with
Johanna Smith-real name unknown.
Mr.. McClary, was chosen judge, Misses
OAiPoSit oh4 hiChOH dppedItQ lOT
the defense and Messrs. Keely
and o. Seavey for the prosecution. Delegate
Holland OF Brooklyn, was elected sheriff for
the occasion. A jury was impaneled and the
trial proceeded, affording much merriment.
Some short personal hits were brought out by
the cross examination. The prisoner was
found to be not guilty and the complainant,
]. G. Fenberry, guilty OF perjury, and fined
the cigars for the crowd.
The party arrived at Wayzata and took the
train for st. Paul at 4:50, returning well
pleased with the trip.

A MoorED QUESTION SETTLED.

A Minneapolis morning paper, printed
in this city, succeeded few days ago in
creating some alarm by grossly exag-
gerated statement of the health of the
city, alleging that there was an
alarming presence of scarlet fever
and diphtheria. The statement was
evidently designed to make it appear
that st. Paul is unhealthy because other
localities, not far distant, have been
sadly afflicted.
The statement published in yesterdays
GLOBE from the Oakland Cemetery associ.
alton effectually sets at rest the malicious
report of this hostile newspaper, which
evidently expects to secure outside pat
ronage in return for its Sian der. If a
disease is so prevalent it is pretty sure
the victims must be buried somewhere.
The statements of the cemeteries show
that in the entire city during the month
of July there were but seven deaths from
diphtheria, two from scarlet fever and
three from typhoid fever. Three of the
interments from diphtheria were brought
from outside the city, leaving a total
of only nine deaths from
the three alleged epidemic
diseases in the entire month of July.
For city of $4,000 inhabitants this
cannot be considered an alarming rec
ord.
The casual reader should bear
in mind that, while the COM
munication in question, giving these
valuable statistics, emanated from
the Oakland Cemetery association, it GOV.
cred the official report of interments
from five cemeteries--all that there are
in the city. There never was
more complete and satisfactory
answer made to slanderous statement
assailing the health of the city, and the
thanks of the public are due to the Oak
land officials, for their prompt and en-
phatic extinguisher.
1t ought to show the public the charac-
ter of the Minneapolis sheet, which as
matter of mechanical convenience is
printed in st. Paul, but which never
loses an opportunity to administer stab

CHICAGO, Aug. 4.-The grain in sight is
increasing rapidly, although at this market
receipts just now have dropped off. Reports
from other markets indicated increased activi-
ty. This morning prices opened strong and
advanced until IL o'clock, but the advance
was not very heavy, and when the sun came out
the advance was in some cases more
than lost. Flour was weak, but no lower.
Regular wheat was rather slow, and trading
went by spurts, being in the aggregate far
less than usual. The fluctuations were in
sales. At the close an advance of &c had
been made for the day. Sales, 991zc0S1.0l
for August. 90xc@sl.OeS for September,
and 9S@99Hc for the year. Winter re-
ceipts, were 1SS cars, nearly the entire
amount OF wheat received to-day. The de-
mand was limited and decline of n gle took
place. Sales, $l.O2Q1 .03% for cash: 81 O20
1.O3X for August. Spring was weak and
nearly nominal. Sales, $fOIA, regular rang
ing at $l0l OILY for cash. Nothing done in
options. On call sales Winter, $4,000 bush
els; some prices frmer and some easier, but
no real change. Winter, 100000 bushels;

HOW TO SMASH THE SLATE.

The GLOBE does not assume to pre-
dict what action the Democratic conven-
ton in the First District will take when
it assemblies at Winona on the 9Th of Sep
TENDER, but it has no hesitation in stating
what it believes would be
good and shrewd political
policy. The contest in the First district
is not, in reality, upon the member of the
house, but relative to who shall succeed
Mr.. Window in the United States senate.
The election of Milo White will prove a
great boom for the Window ma
chine and every Democrat and anti-ring
Republican ought to be willing to labor
for Whites overthrow.
Whatever protestations may be made
for effect, there is one so destitute of
common sense as not to appreciate that a
Democratic nominee cannot defeat Mr..
White.
Neither can any one, with common
sense, claim that it would be any sacrifice
of principle for the Democrats to decline
to make a nomination and leave a clear
field for Mr.. Dunnell.
The effort to fire the Democratic heart
by claiming that the Democracy should
not take up defeated Republicans, OF
endorse politicians of an opposite party,
is mere bosh and empty clap
trap. No one proposes or asks
to have the Democrats endorse Mr.
Dunnell. No one, on the other hand
asks or expects Mr.. Dunnell to abdicate
his party affiliations. 1t is simply pro-
posed to take the lesser of the two evils
and give an element of the Republican
party an opportunity to revolt agains,
the Window dynasty. The Democrats
do not stultify themselves by giving the
Republicans an opportunity to enjoy a
free fight.
There is no installing the popular
sentiment in the First District. MIR.
Dunnell against Mr.. White alone would
sweep the district by at least
five thousand, and with his
success the Window legislative
tickets would be hopelessly buried and
their places filled with Democrats and

John Mclaughlin was robbed YESTERDAY
afternoon OF SIS near one OF the most fire..
quented parts of the city. He says he was
standing on Sibley street, below jackson, in
front OF the intelligence Office there, when
two men approached and commenced
conversation with him, and asked him IL he
wanted aJob. He replied that ne did not as
he had work. They then informed him that
they knew where he could get Job at $3.50
per day. This appeared different and he at
once concluded that il he could get lob at
that pay he would be glad to
take it and SO informed his new made
acquaintance. They, therefore, took him
along down street for the purpose, as they
said, OF showing him where the office was,
that they wanted $3.50 men. When they got
to the foot OF sibley street they took him into
the lower part of Hills old warehouse, and
walked him clear to the other end OF 1t. When
they reached the end of the warehouse the two
men pointed to pair of rickety old stairs, and
told him sits up them stairs where they want
such men," He looked at the stars
and concluded that they did not look as
though they led to two dollar and half
place, and SO informed the two men, and at the
same time he told them he would not 20 any
further. AS soon as he SAID this one
OF the men hit him on one
side of his head with a club which
Knocked him up against post, when the fell
low on.ihe other side hit him on that side of
the head. This rendered him perfectly sense
less, when the two went through him and got
out as soon as possible, but Mclaughlin got
up so soon after they left and gave
the alarm so loud and
so quickly that the officers succeeded in chas-
ing one of the robbers down and arrested him..
He gives his name as Frank Brown and saws
the other fellow is named John Brown. Both
ran with all the speed possible and it was not
without long and hard clase that they were
caught. This Frank Brown, as he gives his
name, Odly about twenty-one years of age,
and is very hard looking citizen and still
harder acting one. OF course he denies every
thing, but Mclaughlin fully and completely
Identifies him as one of the men that hit him
with club.

LITTLE Rock. Aug. 4.-The trouble In the
northwestern part Of the Creek nation last
week by the arrest Of a criminal and his
rescue and the murder OF the jaiIer, Capt.
Sam Scott, by gang Of the Sandsmen, Is not
yet settled. Monday night the Sandsmen en-.
camped on Pell crtek, nine miles from
Muscogee, in command Of a not.d
desperate named Dick Glass Chief Scott, OF
the Creek nation, was in camp eighteen miles
distant with $50 mep, and citizens were still
coming to his aid. When ais command
reaches 500 he will arrest the twelve slayers OF
Capt Scott. The Sandsmen called on Agent
Tufts, at Muscogee, who advised them
to surrender the men wanted by the
authorities as the only nesns of
preventing bloodshed. This they emphati-
caliy refused to 90 and reiterated their inten-
ton to stand by their comrades to the bitter
end. Great excitement prevails over the
nation. As matters now stand the Glass gang
must either dispense and let Captain SCOTS
murderers take their chances with the officers
or bloodshed will follow.

Independent Republicans. The letters
which the GLOBE is printing
from the First District come from
responsible parties, who know whereof
they affirm, and failure on the part of
the Democrats to leave clear field by
adJourning without a nomination or
recommendation, would be grave po-
litical blunder and as fine bonanza for
Window as he could desire.
