MINNEAPOLIS, March A sneak thief
stole a new harness from barn at the corner
of Fourth avenue North and First street last
night.
On Thursday night the house of Jas. Stanch-
field was entered by pair of burglars who
were frightened away before they succeeded in
laying hands upon any valuables. In making
their precipitate retreat they left behind them
a pair of slippers incased in overshoes and
pair of boots. Yesterday the boots
were identified as the property of j. D.
Smell, who recently owned a small livery
stable in rear of the Brigham house. This
incident furnished clue upon which the off,
GERS worked, and last night Smell and his
roommate, Ed. Bennett, were safely coraled.
At the police station SHELL made confession
OF the whole thing. They had seen Stauch-
field sell horse for which he received $3.50,
and they resolved to get possession of the
lucre. They got into the house by raising a
window, then went into Mr.. Stanchfield's bed
room and were just in the act of Selling his
clothes when Mrs. Stanchfeld awoke and
screamed. Mr.. Stanchield had $500 in his
pocketbook at the time and esteems himself a
very fortunate man.
coat was stolen from in front of a.
Bermmann's clothing store on South Wash
ington avenue last night, but the thief was
discovered by Dir. Bermmann before he had a
chance to get away, and he gave chase. The
coat was dropped by the thief, who darted
down the center of the street for dear life,
splashing through the mud half knee deep.

MIR. JEFFERSON DAVIS has written a
letter to friend in New York in which
he expresses desire to have his opinions
examined by political opponents, believ-
ing that it may lead them to reconsider
and change their views. Mr.. Davis Is
doubtless a very pure man in his private
life, and very able and scholarly gen.
tleman, but it seems that he has yet to
learn that his political hobby, the right
of secession, is as dead as John Ran
dolph's mackcrel. HIS "opinion'' ought
to have been settled in 1865 by hanging
him. 1t was the great mistake of his
political opponents when he was allowed
to 60 free.

Kensi,agtOn Art School.

Perhaps but comparatively small
number of readers are familiar with the
meaning of what is implied in the above
caption or headline. AS few perhaps
would be able to affirm any extensive
knowledge of its local application. In
short the fact is not half as we'll known
as 1t should be that st. Paul has in
her midst genuine school of art
in the department of needle painting.
On Wabashaw street, near Ninth, in I'M
assuming but elegant quarters, may be
found the home of this art Of industry
Here may be seen some of the finest
specimens of needle painting ever shown
in this country AS works Of art, the
specimens exceed in exquisite handiwork
and beauty anything ever seen in St.
Paul. In beauty of design, shading, and
harmonious blending of colors, the work
here produced will vie with anything
achieved with the brush or pencil. The
art school and educational branch is in
charge of Mrs. F. M. Patio, Of New
York, and lady whose keen sense of the
beautiful and cultivated talent in the
practical application of its laws,
makes her well qualified to
fulfill the duties of the position.
Glasses have been formed in "needle
painting" and instruction is given daily
at moderate rates. The Institution is
doing a noble and worthy work, and
should be heartily encouraged.

FREE WILL.

Rejoice. o young man, in thy youth; and let
thy heart cheer thee in the days thy youth,
and walk in the ways Of thine heart, and in
the sight of thine eyes; but know thou that
for all these things God will bring thee into
judgment -EoCLEsIAsTEs, Ink.
To young man in the first flush Of
youth life appears very much like race
to be run, where the swiftest and most en-
during shall bear off the prizes. To a
race for which, like the Olympian games
of ancient Greece, youths must undergo
preparatory training, and where success
or failure in the race depends largely
upon the thoroughness of this discipline.
The race course of life lies over much
fairer plain than the one of Ellis, where
the stadium for those renowned games
was placed. This beautiful world with
its changing seasons, its shifting lights
and shadows, its mountains and seas, is
the course where the trials
are made. The young man fresh
from the hands of his tutors
enters the race for the prizes of pleasure,
wealth, fame and honor. A crowd of
witnesses, men and angels, watch his
efforts, and ambitions trumpet voice,
loud and clear, urges him on.
The race of life resembles the Grecian
games in another respect-that every
man must run the race for himself. No
substitutes will be allowed, and no brides
will be taken.
The wise man, knowing all that must
befall man in this life, and what trials
and temptations would be, as well as the
final awards, bids young man to rejoice
in his youth; to be glad in this brightest
season of his life, when the blood is warm
the feelings and impulses fresh and kind
the heart brave, and all the grand posi-.
bilities and opportunities of life are be-
fore him. Let his heart cheer him in
these days of hope and anticipation
the race is yet to be rur
and all things seem possible to him. He
is Independent in his choice; he is bound
to no master; he can walk in the way of his

Affecting Scene In Court.

ELDoRADo, Kas., March Al. w. Scott
and W. h Harvey, convicted of forgery, have
been sentenced by Judge Lorrence, the
former to seven and the latter to three
years in the state penitentiary. Edward
Bartholder, for burglary and larceny, was SEN
fenced for five years. The scene in the court
room was most affecting. Mrs. Scott shrieked
twice and was taken away in a semi-uncon-
scious condition. The judge wept unre-
STRANGELY, and tears and groans were seen and
heard throughout the audience. Great sym-
pathy is expressed for Scott, Harvey and
Bartholder, whose families are good people
and much respected here.

The 10th birthday anniversary Of Prof.
Henry Stein, leader of the Great Union
band came off yesterday and right, joy
fully was it celebrated During the after

presence was desired at Hennings' Place,

nifcent and costly chain and locket. The
presentation was made by Mr.. Rausch in
behalf of tbs band, who in well chosen
words, expressed the friendship and re-
spect entertained for him by its members,
and begged him to accept the gift as a
token of their high esteem and regard.
A jolliicatlon and general good time fol-
lowed. The band, which has been in ex
istence three years, is composed Of
eighteen members, and 1t is very worthy
and efficient organization.

Trying to Get the Doctors to Say Quit eau

New York Sun, March 81


is Insane.
New York Sun, March Q.
The subject discussed by the Medico.
Legal Society last evening was "Reason.
ing Mania" DR.. William A. Hammond
led off with an essay, referring particu.
larly to the case of the assassination of
President Garfield. The plaster cast OF
Guiteau's head used at the trial
at Washington, was exhibited. The
assassin was said to be a
subject of reasoning mania DR.. Ham
mond thought Guiteau should be hanged,
as he had sufficient intelligence to know
that pointing loaded pts. Of at human
being, cooking it, and pulling the trigger
are acts which will cause the death Of the
person against whom they are directed. -
DR.. Ralph E. Parsons approved the
essay.
DR.. Spitzka said he had made a rather
complete examination of Guiteau, and
concluded that he was insane. 1t was
hereditary. 81 am CERTAIN" continued
Dr. SpitZka, "that Guiteau will expect
the Almighty to descend from heaven
and cut the rope when he is hanged"
DR.. Geo. NJ. Beard objected to hanging
Guiteau on scientific and not sentimental
grounds. He said a number of politi-
clans had gotten together in caucus and
determined to swear Guiteau sane. 1t
was the only way they could hang him.
DR.. Lewis A. Sayre said that Guiteau's
mental condition should have been as
certained by experts before the trial. An
insane man should not be tried. We
should then have been able, to show to
the world that none but an insane person
would dare to shoot our president.
Mr.. Scoville, Guiteau's council, OBJ
tanned permission to speak. He said he
disagreed with DR.. Hammond. The law
enunciated by him was not the correct
one.
