Kelly Bros. Burned Ont.

Fire broke out about o'clock this morn
ing in the restaurant of Kelly Brothers, on
Broadway. The firm were also dealers in
confectionery, bakers goods, etc. The
building was one of a row of wooden
buildings, and had it not been for the
promptness and efficiency of the fire de-
partment the whole row of half dozen
prominent business places would have
gone. The stock was mostly removed,
much of 1t, however, in damaged condi-
ton. Loss about $4,000. Insurance $4,000,
in Springfield, st. Paul Fire and Marine,
Lancashire, Home, of New York, and
Metropole, represented here by Overherk
& Brown and Barker & Potter. The origin
of the fire is not known. The firm has
moved across the street, and are continu-

GOLDEN RULES FOE THE YOUNG.

The person who first sent these rules
to be printed says, truly, if any boy or
girl thinks it would be hard work to
keep SO many of them in mind all the
time, just think, also, what a happy
place it would make of home if you only
could:
1. Shut every door after you, and
without slamming it.
2. Never shout, run or jump in the
house.
3. Never call to persons up stairs or
in the next room; if you wish to speak
to them, go quietly where they are.
4. Always speak kindly and politely to
servants if you would have them do the
same to you.
5: When you are told to do, or not to
do, thing, by either parent, never ask
why you should or should not do it.
6. Tell of your own faults and misdo-
ings; not of those of your brothers and
sisters.
7. Carefully clean the mud or snow
off your boots before entering the house.
s. Be prompt at every meal hour.
9. Never sit down at the table or in
the parlor with dirty hands or tumbled
hair.
10. Never interrupt any conversation,
but wait patiently your turn to speak.
IL. Never reserve your good manners
for company, but be equally polite at
home and abroad.
l2. Let your first, last and best friend
be your mother.

An Explanation of the Motives of the
European Syndicate in Buing them up.
Especial Telegram to the Globe
WASHINGTON, Aug. "A broker who has
purchased large amounts of the confeder-
ate bonds furnishes this explanation of the
apparent European lunacy on this subject:
The reports of treasury agents of the
o. S. some time after the close of the re-
bellion showed that there was deposited in
the bank of England and in banks in
France, Holland and Belgium 81, 100000
belonging to the confederate government,
the proceeds of the sale of cotton. This
money was pledged to pay the interest on
the confederate loan. The January inter-
est of 1865 was paid and money was set
apart to pay the coupons for the July in
terest when the rebellion col
lapsed. The European syndicate
and bankers are seeking to obtain all the
confederate bonds for the purpose only of
collectingithe duty on 1865 coupons with
accumulated interest resulting from non
payment. The talk about attempting to
boycott the Southern states, or to collect
the principal of the bonds, or any interest
coupons after the month of July, 1865, is
sheer nonsense. But this syndicate has
good legal advice that the money set
apart for specific purpose, namely the
payment of July coupons, must be
paid Oh the presentation of
that coupon and if you
will inquire you will observe that all the
orders to brokers to purchase the confed-
crate bonds specify that they must contain
the July coupon and must not be mutil-
ated. A bond presented without the July
coupon would not be purchased, ,and this is
all there is in the confederate bond story.
The European syndicate intends to secure
if it can these $11 100000 to the credit of
the confederate states government in
European banks.and it proposes to do this
in the only way that it possibly can, if it
oandoit even that way, by presenting these
coupons for payment. If the syndicate
does not succeed the European banks will
be $1.OO0,000 ahead as there is no donbt
that that that amount of cash to the credit
of the confederate states is deposited
there. 1t is fact that the report present
ed to the treasury department some time
after as to the confederate assets in
Europe contained the item of $1,OOO,OOO
cash.

CIVIL SERVICE.
A Nice Scheme to Beat the Commission

Nice Scheme to Beat the Commission.
Especial Telegram to the Globe
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.-Before Secretary
Teller left for the west Superintendent Sea-
ton, of the census bureau, intimated to
him desire to furnish SONS of his clerks
without pay instead of dismissing them
The clerks would be left thus technically
on the trolls of the department
and could be transferred to the interior
department proper when vacancies should
occur without endangering civil service
examination. Mr.. Teller did not decide
the question. Yesterday Commissioner
Gregory called on acting Secretary Joslyn
and protested in vigorous language against
what he styles a usurpation of the rights
and purposes of the civil service commits
sion. If Seaton's plan should
be carried out it would prevent
the commission from making any ap-
pointments in the interior department for
year to come. 'Mr. Seaton's PROPOSE
ton has never been before theIdepart-
ment,f said Mr.. IJoslyn, 'and nothing can
be done in advance of its presentation" :"
Mr.. Gregory then withdrew to consult
with his colleagues. Mr.. Joslyn remarked
it would be unjust to give the employees
an unlimited leave of absence so as to
transfer them to other business, but I think
it would be all right to give them three or
four months leave for that purpose. They
are all competent clerks and are qualified
to perform the duties required

Netc ELerator Project,

Well grounded reports, says the Valley
City Times, indicate that Valley City is
soon to have an independent elevator, in
spite of the seeming misfortune which has
heretofore worked against the building of
one. Two gentlemen we'll known in the
city are the projectors. That they mean
business Is evidenced by the fact that they
have leased ground and obtained consent
from the Northern Pacific Railroad COM
pany for the erection Of the necessary
buildings. The capacity of the new ele-
vator will be in the neighborhood of $4,000
bushels, and a strenuous effort will be
made to complete it by the 1st of Septem-
Der. The site on which the structure is to
be built is the ground now partially Gov
cred by the old watering tank of the rail

PARIS NEWSPAPERS.

It is, I think, scarcely necessary for
me to introduce lie Figaro to my read
ers. Who does not know lie Figaro?
Nine out of ten travellers consider
French genius of the nineteenth centu-
ry to be represented by LIE FEgGro-not
by Chateaubriand, not by Victor Hugo,
Lamartine, Michelet, Auguste Comte,
Renan, Claude Bernard, Pasteur-but
by lie Figaro.
The Frenchman abroad, whatever be
lis political opinions, reads lie Figaro;
whether he be at Damascus, Pekin or
Melbourne, lie Figaro comes to him
with an odor of the boulevard, and is
always opened with delight. lie Figaro
inserts long articles, both ultra-royalist
and ultra-clericaT, of which some, it is
said, are written in good faith; but it is
SO much paper wasted. lie Figaro is
not read for them; it is for its spicy
gossip that we take it up, for its indis-
Greet way of taking peeps at private
life, for its theatrical news, its green
room gossip, its bits of scandal, and es-
pecially when we believe them false
You like it as you like the good barber
of Seville, who tells you the news while
cutting your hair or shaving you. There
are very often days when lie Figaro is
worthy of its name.
It is an error to suppose that the po-
litical Importance of newspaper is to
be estimated by the number of copies
sent out. The Petit Journal, which
strikes off more than 100000 copies,
certainly has an importance not to be
despised upon the public that read the
half-penny newspapers, but lie Parle-
naerot, which strikes off only 5000 or
1000 at the most, is a paper which no

Analysis of the July Public Debt State
ment,
Especial Telegram to the Globe. !

Especial Telegram to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.--Mr. John NJ. Car
son, clerk of the committee on ways and
means, has furnished the following analysis
of the public debt statement for July. The
close of the first month of the new fiscal
year shows a reduction in the public debt
since July 1 of S8.OOO,0OO in round num-
bers. This reduction, however, is not real,
since that obligations to the amount named
has been discharged, during the month the
debt columns showing no change worth
noticing since the beginning of the month.
The reduction is produced by
payment of about S3,OO0,OO0 for accrued
interest and an increase of about $5,OOO,O0O
in the available cash balance, which is
now $155, 1876. The treasury now has
nearly $2O3,OOO,OOO in gold coin and gold
bullion, an increase during the month of
nearly $5,OOO,0OO. Against this gold fund
there is outstanding $60,OOO,0OO in certif
Gates, an increase of $261,OO0 for the
month. The accumulation of standard sill
yer dollars in the treasury goes steadily
forward, the number of these pieces now
held being 113,0OO,OO0, against which are
outstanding nearly $74,00O,00O.

The Great Libel Suit .

The morning following the postpone
ment of the libel suit of A. W. Edwards
against the Republican company, the
Argus contained something like two col
dmns of matter devoted to the suit and
the parties comprising the defense. The
Republican contained five line notice, in
which it stated that it was anxious for
trial at the earliest possible moment.
Many of the Argus locals were directed at
the attorney for the defense who, it seem
ed, was slightly compromised. In spite
of the announced desire for an early trial
the Republican paid the costs into court
to-day and the case goes over until the
December term.

COOKED IN THE MILK.

SAN Francisco, August 2.-It is now
known that the hot north winds in June
did more damage to wheat than could at
the time have been supposed. Over a
large area the winds caught the grain still
in the milk, and although many sections
of wheat looked well, it was found later
SO shrivelled as hardly to pay to cut it.
The secretary of the state board of agri-
culture has just issued figures
putting the wheat acreage the present
year 100000 acres. Notwithstanding
the increased acreage over last year he
estimates the crop will be 90 per cent. less
than last year. Others admit the crop
will be probably 20 per cent. less than the
quantity estimated prior to the 1st of
June, which was 100000 tons. This
estimate makes the present total crop
1,28O,000 tons and deducting thesEequired
home consumption it would leave Sc. 900
tons for export. A careful examinatiofrof
the comparison substantiates the correct
ness of these figures.
