Served Him Rinht

About II o'clock last night one of the
bell boys at the Metropolitan named Stien
was heated pretty severely by two young
fellows who gave their names as Charles
McNair and George Driver. 1t seems that
these two persons were going up Third
street with two young ladies, when Stien,
a boy about eighteen years of age, who is
bell boy at the Metropolitan, and who
had been drinking some, made
several offensive and vulgar re
marks within the hearing of the
ladies, and evidently intended for them to
hear. The two young men finally turned
upon the bell boy, near the Metropolitan.
and knocked him down, and it is said by
another bell boy who was present, kicked
him in the face. At first it was thought
that the boy was seriously
hurt, but DR.. Davenport, who
happened to be at the hotel at the time
and who attended to the boy, saws he is
not much hurt, but that he was wild with
the liquor he had drank. The two who
made the assault were arrested but put up
nearly 500 and were released.

The Canadian Irish.

MONTREAL, May 23.-The belief is cur
rent in Irish national circles that despite
the action taken by the clergy, the local
Irish societies will form themselves into
league branches. A leading member of
the Montreal branch of the Irish land
league says they will probably abandon
any scheme for affiliation with the Ameri-
can league, and hold convention and
form similar organization for the domin-
ion of Canada. The local branch of the
league has now delegates interviewing the
different Irish national societies here, and
these will report on Sunday next, when the
whele subject will be discussed. Meantime
the position taken by the Irish Catholic
clergy here is upheld by all except few
who care little for any clergy.

of the bucket shops in their contest with

which the board of trade quotations had
been given. The court held that the con-

rowing, begging commission to locate
the capital. The whole matter had its
origin in a real estate speculation, and the
public machinery is being used to carry
out the deal. Indictments have been found
against several of the manipulators, for
attempted bribery in endeavoring to secure
votes for the capital removal bill, and if
absolute justiceis done, the population OF
the penitentiary will be largely increased
The scheme was conceived in iniquity and
born in corruption and is disgrace to the
territory.
1t is disgraceful in that the capital is
made the basis for begging speculation.
The absurdity of the plan proposed for To-
eating the capital, is shown by the fact
that the so called ''best offer' comes from
Odessa, point on DEVILS lake, in the ex-
treme northern part of the territory, where
there are but two or three houses and
everything is prospective. If the commits.
sion are strictly impartial, the ''best offer''
will win. Dakota confsssss herself too
poor to subsist save by public charity.

CINCINNATI, May pa letter has been
received from A. Jones, town marshal of
Robinson, Ill. addressed to John F. Wiltze,
undertaken saying that the body of Miss
Young arrived by express at that place
May 4, embalmed by Wiltze. The burial
permit was signed by DR.. Bramble, health
officer, with certificate from three physi-
clans, that the disease that caused her death
was ruerpura hemorrhage; that the body
was exposed to view and had spread the
country with smallpox. He says a man
named Westly Fields of that place had en-
ticed the girl from her home. She died
while attending Miss Barns music school
1t is true the girl died as Jones says, and
three physicians said her disease was not
smallpox, but two persons have since taken
smallpox in Miss Barns school, and the
place is thoroughly quarantined.

HGUerIY's 1IinSLTeIS.

Ii goes without the saying that the
Oaera house was crowded last evening, for
it has yet to occur that minstrel show,
good, bad or indifferent, fails to pack the
house. The show last night, though ad-
vertised as j. II. Haverly's greatest sue
cess-the crowning triumph of his man
agerial career-was really only
mediocre. 1t was not first class,
nor was it absolutely bad, sort of betwixt
and between, in fact it fell far short of the
extravagant claims made for it. Had less
been claimed for it, the large audience
which greeted ii last evening would have
felt kindlier toward it. But while not
meeting the expectations that had beer
raised, there were some really good things
in it, the "Apollo quartette' being es
especially worthy of mention. Another
most commendable feature was the "doG
show" introduced by James Il. Burton
Outside of these two no special mention il
required.

Thomas arrival, will be at Market hall,
the stage of which is now finished, on FRI

be a revelation. A committee of ladies
have undertaken to embellish the stage

doubtless make it very attractive. The
sale of seats goes steadily on, and as peo-
pie seem very impartial in their selections,
there are plenty of good seats left in all

organized in Hudson and Saltwater for one
or more of the st. Paul concerts, to return

Horse Stealing Indians,

WINNIPEG, Man., May 23.-A dispatch
from Maple Greek, the present terminus of
the Canadian Pacific railway, states that
on Monday morning a band of Piegans
from across the border, swooped down on
that place and stole a hundred horses.
Maple Creek is $50 miles west of Regina,
forty five miles north Of the boundary, the
headquarters of number of contractors
and mounted police station with troops
and thirty men. About month ago the
Crees crossed the boundary and stole a
hundred horses from the Piegans. The
latter have since been waiting an oppor-
tunity to regain the stolen animals. The
Crees brought them to Maple Creek and
grazed them there. On Monday a party
of Piegans came over, and, it appears.
took possession of their own animals, but
besides these they took a number OF
horses belonging to white settlers there.

Now that they are to have a professor
of the Scandinavian language in the State
University it may be in order for our Irish
citizens to demand chair for the cultlva-
tion of Gaelic or Celtic literature. Surely,
the beautiful and mellifuous tongue in
which Ossian, the contemporary and peer
of Homer, wrote and sang his immortal
lays, should not be slighted by our learned
Minnesota solons. Knowing as they do(?)
that any one thoroughly conversant in the
Irish language could have conversed fluent
ly with Moses in Hebrew, with Aristotle in
Greek and with Cicero in Latin, so close is
the affinity between the languages, it may
be reasonably expected that the mighty
legislators of the gopher state" if proper
ly approached, may see fit in their wis
dom to give the Hibernians an Irish pro-
fessor, or rather a professor of Irish; and
as O'Donovan Rosa is proficient in his
mother tongue he may be offered the posi-
tion on condition of relinquishing
his dynamite experiments. Seri
ously, the Irish language has about
the same right to be taught in the univer-
sity as the language of our fellow citizens,
from the land of the Vikings, and some
day when Minnesota is Democratic instead
of being Republican, the sons of the Emer-
aid Isle may see their language on SINH
lar footing with the other modern languages
taught in our state institution at the ex-
pense of the tax payers.

The Cold Weather in Ohio.

TOLEDO, O., May 23-The best obtainable
information is to the effect that the recent
storms and cold weather have not materi-
ally injured the wheat, corn or oat crops
IN this vicinity. Owing to the backward
spring, but little corn has yet been plant
ed. Wheat will probably be light, say &C
to IS per cent of full average crop. This
is attributable not to the late cold weather
but to the severity of the winter. Small
fruits and garden stuff have probably
suffered some damage, as fruit trees gen
orally were in bloom when the storm

Sol. Smith Russell.

The next company to appear at the
Opera house is that of Sol Smith Russell, "a
decided favorite in st. Paul,) in edge
wood Folks" probably one of the best and
most successful dramas yet written. The
Brooklyn Eagle in speaking of its repre-
sentation in that city says:
"'Edgwood Folks,' played last evening
at the Brooklyn Park Theater for the first
time in this city, is destined to euioy here
the same phenomenal popularity that it
has so speedily gained elsewhere. 1t is
full of decorous humor, innocent merri-
ment and kindly wit, and is just what is
wanted in the way of light, pleasing and
innocent amusement. 1t is full of bright
sayings, comical situations and cleverly
designed incidents, and gives scope for
good acting to company honestly able to
boast that it has been selected with view
to the best of comedy acting and notmere-
ly to make ballast for star. Mr.. Sol
Smith Russell, who plays the principal
part, that of Tom Dilloway, is, or ought
to be, known to the general reader as one
of the most versatile of legitimate come
dians that we have. There appears to be
no line of comedy parts that he cannot
take. His sketches of character, marked
by the most comprehensive study and ex'
pressed by an innumerable phalanx OF
little touches in detail, proves that his
schooling in dramatic art has been thor
ough. With his keen intuition of charac-
ter and his amazing dexterlty in hitting
off its salient points, Mr.. Russell has two
of the highest qualifications that come
dian can have. OF a company that con-
tains such artists as accompany MIR. Rus
sell it is superfuous to speak, except to
anticipate the general verdict of warm
commendation."

GUILTY consciences were never more ap-
parent than in the case of the Republicans
and the Hon. Samuel J. Tilden. When a
man has served another a mean and dis
honorable trick, he generally becomes the
bitter enemy of the man he has wronged.
Having stolen the presidency away from
Mr.. Tilden after he was duly elected, an
abusive fire has been continued upon him
ever since. They evidently feel that the
crime requires some palliation and they
hope to Justify it by abuse of the man
they have wronged. This plan has been
industriously followed for seven years, and
as the next presidential campaign ap-
proaches has become more virulent than
ever. No better evidence is needed to show
that, if health will permit, Mr.. Tilden will
receive a second term in 1884.
