THERE seems to be no limit to the hor-
TORS of child stealing. A few nights ago
some villains entered the residence of a
gentleman IN Montreal and stole an infant
boy not quite three years old, leaving a
note that unless they were paid $4,000
within two days the child would be MUIR
dered. The family had not retired, the
mother being in an adjoining room,
when the child was taken. Boldness and
total depravity have rarely, if ever, ex-
ceeded this case. The parents, frantic at
their loss, were ready to pay the ransom
demanded for their stolen boy, but the
authorities interposed andprevented any
such compromise. Between their loss
and the authorities the parents were
at loss what course to pursue, but
fortunately the thieves abandoned their
prize about mile from the residence
and he was safely returned to his moth
er's arms. The fact that such a crime
can be perpetrated is sufficient to make
every parent in the land shudder Muir
der is merciful crime by comparison.

Dean's Depreda,tons

Yesterday morning the GLOBE made publ
cation of the fact that one Dean had been
Gagged for stealing harness: The pointer
gained from that fact led Capt. Berry, of the
police force. to take lead. Taking the clue
he was not long in running down other thefts
of harness, and before evening yesterday had
recovered six which this rogue Dean had sold
to various secondhand dealers. The first
one recovered was the property of
John Roberts, of % North Eighth
street, and was probably worth over
$40 He sold it for IS. Another was stolen
from Abrahamson, of North Second street,
which was sold at Arnoldy's second hand
store on Washington avenue, between Four
tenth and Fifteenth avenues south. Another
was stolen from Judge Bebee, while another
had been stolen from G. D. Wheeler and sold
at the second hand store on Washington ave-
nue. between Eleventh and Twelfth avenues
south for Sc and was worth SIS.
The remaining two sets of harness are still
unclaimed, but Dean Acknowledges that he is
guilty OF taking them. lie claims that an
other mantle man who was recently found
deaf-was in partnership with him. Dean is
in appearance worthless sort of vagabond.
He goes about piling wood and has recently
been engaged in buying old rags, iron and cop.
per. He carries with him a sack into which
he Grams the harness as he lifts them.

Arabt Beg as a specutator.

A New York dispatch says: "Arabi
Bey," said a New York banker to-day,
sis the most gigantic speculator in the
world, and Gould, Vanderbilt, Russell
Sage and Keene are only infants in stock
jobbing compared with him. Arab Bey
has for years speculated on tremendous
scale in the London, Paris, Vienna, Ber-
lin, and1 other continental bourses.
through his secret agents. Some time
ago he saw good reason to believe that
Egyptian securities were gong down.
You see, he had secret information in
his possession. He at once proceeded to
sell them heavily short 10 London, Paris
and elsewhere. There was small de-
cline, but the speculative fever ran high.
and Egyptians rose to a price at which
Arab Bey would have been subjected to
heavy losses had he covered.
"Now, John Bull and Johnnie Crapaud
are both heavy holders of Egyptians, ;
and naturally bulls. In taking these Sc
curities they both exhibited far more
shrewdness than do the majority of the
watchers of the tape in Wall street. Each
nation, in fact, appointed a commission
er, agent, or comptroller to proceed to
Egypt to keep exact record of all rev
enues and expenditures of whatever ma
ture. The commissioners were provided,
also, with facilities to ascertain the con-
dition of commerce, foreign and domes-
tic, and of the crops. The reports of
these authorities were, to a certain ex-
tent, reassuring, and the attempt to
break Egyptians failed.

As James Percy was driving along
towards Oak Park last evening his horse
became frightened at the cars, and be-

her to the ground. Fortunately she was

Kinduess af Home.

Some unusually thoughtful, observant
and sensible speaker, whose name is net
given in the report before us, said, in an
address before an Illinois agricultural So
ciety: "The farmer who persists in
dragging his wife and children from their
beds ought to be visited by missionary.
Let the sun set the example of rising. If,
with all the modern advantages for get
ting necessary farm work done, the farm
er cannot manage so as to secure living
without robbing his family of sleep, ex-
posing them to ague, and to future rheu-
matism, land, we may add, to hatred of
farm life and of their home, he ought TO
go into some other business.
Farmers should live like princes, eat
ing of the best, while fresh, and with
simple healthful art of cookery. The
ritory; but let him not use this power to
try to rule by force, soaring the souls of
those around him. He should treat his
wife and children with infinite kindness;
and in that air of kindness they viii
grow about him like flowers.
There is no real reason why farmers
should be arbitrary or self willed or con-
temners of others, or anything but the
kindest, most cultivated and most honor
able of men. There is nothing in the
fields to make men cross or Grabbed.
They are masters of others, but they
should all the more be masters of them
selves, and not degenerate into arbi-
trary, cruel and surly tyrants, turning
morose looks upon their children's faces;
upon their green meadows and sunny
Slopes; and even upon their innocent de-
pendent tenants of their yards. Let hap
piness be the aim; diffuse it to all, for
the farm has been, in all ages, noted as
its favorite home.

Yesterday afternoon another fatal railroad
accident occurred in the Yards of the Mime

jus, car reparer, was sent to remove bro

sidetracked in the lower yard near Tenth ay-
enue south. The pin was bent and consider
able difficulty was experienced in extracting
the link. Mr.. Lopkoius was obliged
to employ the use Of q ham
mer and was endeavoring to drive up this
bent pin when the accident occurred. In
commencing the work he had departed from
the,rules OF the road, which are that when any
workman goes between two cars TO
perform any duty he must first place flag
out as q signal which would inform any en-
gineer of the fact of his being there, and
thereby avoid just such an accident. Uncon-
scious of his presence, John Late, of engine

screamed for help, and when assistance came
he was found clinging desperately to the brake
rod of one of the cars. He was removed to
the shade of q building and physician sum-
moned, who arrived just IN time to witness
the last breath of the sufferer. The body was
then taxed into the round house and the coro-
ner notified of the casualty by telephone.
Taking Undertaken Warner the coroner at
once repaired 10 the scene of the fatal accident,
and had the remains removed to the under
taking rooms on Washington avenue.
The brother of the deceased David, who is
Waterman at Turner hall, furnished the fol-
lowing information: The deceased resides on
south Fourth street near Mueller & Heinrich's
brewery and leaves q wife and two children IN
poor circumstances. He was formerly the
proprietor of the Harmonic house, on north

Mrs. Lopkojus is the niece of Mrs. John Helm
rich, of Mueller 81 Heinrich's.
The coroner, after making careful inyesti-
cation of the facts connected with the acct
dent, concluded that il was not necessary to
hold an inquest, as apparently no one was
responsible for the death, the deceased having
acted contrary to instructions given every
employe OF the railroad company However,
if further evidence should turn up ia the
meantime the coroner may possibly hold an
inquest.
The physicians concluded that Lopkojus

CROP NOTES.

Facorabte Prospects in all Parts Of the
State.
The wheat crop in Isanti county gives a fair
promise.
The barley harvest has commenced in
WlnOna county.
It is expected that the Polk county wheat
crop will be a big one.
The crop prospect In jackson county is re-
ported to be very encouraging.
Ada Alert; If the present showery weather
continues the hay cut will be light as harvest
is not very far distant and the attention of the
farmers will be turned in that direction be-
fore long.
Glencoe Enterprise; Wheat is generally
headed out and the cool weather for the past
few days has been just the thing to allow the
kernels to fill properly. Evidently what
there is of wheat this year Will be of good
quality.
Faribault Republican,: The general tenor of
reports from the crops in the various towns
of the county is encouraging. Notwith-
standing the frequent rains, wheat, oats and
barley generally look well and promise an
abundant yield.
fhe Star says the crops in Big Stone
county promise an average yield. Oats are
the heaviest, and will probably yield more
Than ever before in that county. The farmers
commenced cutting wheat in 1879 on the 18th
oil July. In 1880 July 81, and in 1881 they
commenced July Is. Owing to the cool
weather this year wheat does not ripen fast.
and as result the harvest will be week or
ten days later this year.
Glyndon NeWs: A trip from Glyndon to
Crookston this week shows the growing
grain crops to be of good average condition
and prospect, merely with present state of
weather and soil, more than usually favorable
for July. Many fields are indeed backward,
but their need be no fear that they will fail to
mature. The season has been dryer further
north there about Giyndon, but last Saturday
nights rain gave plenty of wet for present
purposes. Earlier sOwn barley, oats and
wheat are heading well.
