AN APRIL DAY.

Nearly every school boy remembers the poem of an "April Day. butit is not every school boy who knows from what source i, sprang Fror. nature herself t seemed to have come. for in reading its suggestive and beautiful lines, we can hear the water drp. and feel the fresh air as 1t stirs among the moist boughs of the budding lilac;

 Nothing in our language so perfectly expresses its subject. Shakespeare drew the fine lines of human nature: Moore sang songs of sseetes, cadence Byron hurled forth the strongest expressions of passion. and Burns showed Us the mel lowing furrowed land, but nothing so pet fectiy tells us. and makes us feel the truth so pure and strong. as '' An April Day The following from the New York Eic7,affd Rni;,ay Journal, the journal is,ic serap-book of poetic gems. preced- ing reproduction of the poem. has this to say of the author:
 The following verses were written by Chaueer. the day star of English poesy. This great poet died A. D. Iloo or abou, fifty years before the invention oe printing. He is justly esteemed as the father of English poetry and literature. i. only two names every way inferior to him have as early place in the British field of letters Mandeville and Cover. While the obligations of Chaucer to French and Italian authors are grea, and apparen, in all his writings yet he has left enough of immortal mind scattered through his voluminous productions to sustain his rank and claim as writer of vast and original genius The versi6cation of this fine descriptive poem here given is modern, as the reader will observe. but in all other respects il belongs 10 Chau- cer''
 Every man who. as boy. has ever heard the water drip from the leaves. who has watched the swelling buds. who has seen the lowering clouds, and has pressed his face agains, the window pfnes when the ram came. loves the beautiful poem. The school book makers show the good taste ,o retain II. and the old lovers of natures own words show their fondness of poetic truth in reading it. Our mother tongue is constantly spreading. and our literature grows as surely as the forming of coral strand. bu, never. even after the ships have made the language mouth-piece of the worlds commerce and expression of feel ing. will the grand old masters be sur passed. They seemed to have lolled in the very lap oi nature. their fond mother. and at this busy time. when every man ohases the rolling dollar. i, is pleasure of mellowed recollection 10 mee, the old verses. and in d love of the old and true. read them again and again.

 ''e entire national community. There is,
 ysver, nothing unnatural in this pro- I excursion. Mir. Gould is simply

 a.h an occasion. For years, say since ,e r1s.d the hair from oow-hide. he las been busily employed. Now, having .,y an industry and skill which millions ,i people are attempting to initiate. ac- luired a recognized fortune and an inau
 sacc second to the government itself, he deslres few months rest. and the people ;hfou shout the nation regard his inten- lion aS strange freak of financial ge- aius. AIr. Gould needs rest. For years Ae has been a ceaseless laborer. Heis re- garded as a monopolist but where Is the snan who would mol be great monetary king. The love Of money may be the 1oo, ot all evil, but the desire to hon estly acquire great wealth has never caused half the misery and crime that Aas arisen from indolent poverty. It is n the course of nature that d country saouli produce certain great men. The ssfea' man in politics is held up as a Atesman, while the grea, man in H. use> $ looked upon as an oppressor Of ..ie pnbdc. Let Mir. Gould go and enjoy aiascii.

A FEW weeks ago the GLOBE announced
that Messrs. w. D. Washburn and R. B.
Langdon had arranged to become part
ners on Jan. 1st, in the wholesale grocery
house of George Newell, of Minneapolis.
All of the Minneapolis papers, including
the one printed in st. Paul, fastened to
deny. Washburn was interviewed, and q
denial telegraphed from Washington.
Newell denied, and the Minneapolis pa
pers pronounced it "GLoBE STAR on
Mr.. Washburn. Now comes the Mime
apolis Tribune of Jan. Sd, and says:
The Tribune this morning is able to announce
that arrangements have been completed by
which Senator Il. B. Langdon and Hon. W. d.

A FEW days ago the press dispatches con-
tanned an interview with the treasurer OF
the state of Tennessee in the course of
which he based his refusal to pay the JAN
uary interest on the state debt upon high
moral grounds that the state had
been made the victim Of financial sharpera
and did not honestly owe the money, and
second, that the people had decided at the
polls that the debt should not be paid. II
snow transpires that he had another reason
which he did not give to the public. He
himself had stolen some 100000 of the
state moneys, and had none to spare fol
the creditors. To his credit be it said
however, he did not steal the safe, which
remains secure at the capitol.

cessful combination with two stars. The
attempt has been made time and again
but has always resulted in disaster. The
brief period during which the companies
are able to hold together !are enlivened by
chickering's and hairpullings between the
stars, if they happen to be women, and
by quarrels and knockdowns if they hap
pen to be men. If one of them happen to
receive an extra round of applause he is
accused of having paid claquers, and if he
receives fattering mention from the press
his offense is well nigh mortal. Even
the double-headed girl is engaged in a
perpetual quarrel with herself. Double
headed dramatic ventures are bound to
fail, no matter how much talent may be
comprised in them.

Douglas, of Dakota territory, LAO acres
| of land within the Yellowstone National
park for hotel purposes. Hobart and
Douglas have associated with them Rufus
Hatch, and had lease drawn ready for
signature. On Dec. 7, the senate. at the
instances of Senator Vest, instructed the
secretary of the interior to furnish the SEN
| ate with copies of the agreement and pro-
posed lease. The matter was referred to
the committee on territories to inyesti-
gate, and the committee inclines to the
conclusion that the interior department
has transcribed its authority in max
ing the agreement, and agreed to report
bill clearly defining the duty
of the department and also extending the
area OF the park east to line north and
south through Cedar mountain and south
ward to the forty-fourth parallel, north
latitude, an addition of about 3,344 square
miles to the park, the whole area of which
would be 6,644 square miles. The bill
provides that all territory within the lin
its of the park be withdrawn from settle
ment, occupancy or sale and set apart as
public park or pleasure ground for the
people of the United States, that present
trespassers be removed and further tres
pass prevented, troops to be used if neces-
sary. Fish are only to be taken by hook
and line, and the killing of game prohibit
ed. The secretary of the interior may
grant leases for terms not ex-
ceedlng ten years of small parcels of
ground, but no more ground shall be
leased than is necessary for hotels or
storehouses for the accommodation of Wis
itors and necessary out-houses, and for
gardening or grassing land in connection
with hotels, but no exclusive privilege or
monopoly of any kind will be granted
which shall in any manner interfere with
the free and unrestrict access of the
public to all portions of the park. An ex-
tension OF the limits of the park was rec
commended by the committee upon the
suggestion of Gen. Sheridan, who, as COM
mander of the military department en-
bracing the park, made careful study of
the country, and was convinced that the
reservation should include the proposed
extension on account of geographical and
other physical conditions.

THE Washington National Republican is

Frank Hatton, assistant postmaster gener.

ally, even among the strange and au-
dacious things at Washington to have a
high official in the pay of the government,
spending his time as the open and avowed
editor of newspaper, accepted as the &C
credited organ of the existing admins

4 DREAMER TELLS HIS TALE.
Additional Theories as to the Means
Whereby He Met His Death.

There was but little of interest developed
yesterday in the brutal murder of Richard
A. Pierce, whose foul assassination took
place on Monday night. Particulars of the
murder so far as ascertained, together
with the numerous surmises, conjectures,
theories and speculations to which it gave
rise, have been recorded infinitely and
faithfully from day to day in the columns
of the GLOBE, and while care has been taken
to present the uttermost grain of informa-
ton, it has been the design to employ all
possible delicacy in order that the feelings
of the immediate friends of the young
man might not be unnecessarily panied or
wounded.

THERE is a commission in existence,
authorized by act of congress, whose duty
it is to look after the health of cattle,
horses, sheep, hogs, and other domestic
animals. We presume that the members
are thoroughly competent draw their
salaries. The commission has been ham
pered heretofore by the niggardly appro-
priations made by congress, but doesn't
propose to suffer from that cause any
longer. 1t has proposed to eradicate the
lung disease in cattle provided congress
will appropriate the sam of two million
dollars. This amount would provide
drenches for the afflicted bovines, and also
pay the wine and cigar bills of the com
missioners for several years to come. Con.
gress cannot refuse to make such an i'm
portant expenditure in the interest of the
cattle of the ranches and the hogs of the

THE board of regents Of the state uni
versity yesterday decided to establish a
medical college in connection with that
institution. This action, which is emil
nently proper, should be supplemented by
the legislature with law whereby the
necessary cadaverS can be procured with
out students being compelled to violate
the graves of our cemeteries. There are
plenty of pauper and unclaimed dead to
supply the needs of the college, and if
these are given by law to the institution
the crime of grave robbery will be rare
one in Minnesota. A failure to so pro-
vide will inevitably result in the desecra-
ton of graves, for it is folly to suppose
that anatomical instrustion can be given
without subjects for dissection.
