To the Editor of the Globe:

FARIBAULT, March Give had no GLOBE at all
yesterday (Tuesday). They did not even come
at night nor yet. This makes three times in two
weeks they have failed to come. Can't you
remedy this? 1t makes some growing On the
part of your subscribers to see the other papers
coming and these not Yours truly,
GEO. w. MURPHY.
If these were the first or only complaints of
similar character which had reached US,
the matter would have remained private
one between the GLOBE and the postal au-
thOrities. Unfortunately such complaints
are but sample of many others, which have
reached US at frequent intervals ever since
the GLOBE was brought into existence.
An investigation into this particular case
brought out the confession that on the day in
question the route agent on the cars was busy
with other work and did not open
the sacks containing the GLOBE, until after
the train had passed Farbault. His excuse
was that he did not know the sacks contained
morning papers, and hence was distributing
other mail matter. He took good care, how
ever, to find and distribute the sacks con-
tanning the Republican morning papers, evil
IDENTITY considering it his official duty to see
that such literature was promptly circulated.
The GLOBE has had the disadvantage of
frequent postal determinations which have
been pecuniary damage of thousands of
dollars. The mail which goes to Faribault
and Northfeld for instance, does not leav-
ST. Paul until after a. m. The GLOBE is in the
st. Paul postoffce in ample time,a fact which
is demonstrated by the mail agent on the cars
carrying the papers down to the end of his
run, and bringing them back
twelve or twenty-four hours late.
This plan of the route agents
is the favorite style of discrimination. The
GLOBE will thank its friends to report, giving
dates and trains, of such occurrences, and we
will endeavor to fasten this rascally business
where it belongs. There are many fair and
and square route agents. Probably the
majority rank in that category, but there are
enough of the dishonest class to work an i'm
mense inconvenience to the public and great
damage to the GLOBE.
1t is cheerful to know that this rascally
business is liable to be of COM
paratiyely short duration. The edict has gone
forth " to turn the rascals OUT and the job
will be done so effectually next November
that thereafter the GLOBE may expect fair
play in the mails.

On the 27th the ice began moving out of
the Black river apparently coming through
the slough and at the same time it broke loose
all along the shore of Barron's island. The
ice brought away Saltwater raft that was
laid up there last fall. The La Crosse C1tron-
icte says: ''The raft went down the west
shore with an immense field of ice frozen fast
to it. Three men got to it with lines, two
more started across an immense moving ice
field slumping through the rotten ice every
moment, a third boat worked its way through
the cakes and a fourth with one man put out
from the neighborhood of the mills. The first
line got on the logs broke, but others held
and the raft was finally stopped near the
lower point OF Barron's island, where it is
safe unless other heavy masses of ice should
come down at once"

4 Good MOre.

Commencing Sunday, April 6, the ST..
Paul & Manitoba road will have a late even
ing train from Minneapolis, leaving that city
at 10 80 instead of II 10 as heretofore. The
same road will also have a train leaving St..
Paul for Minneapolis at Ills. This is a
most excellent move. 1t is not expected
that these trains will pay expenses, and they
are put on for the purpose OF accommodating
the public. The managers of the st. Paul 81
Manitoba think that great many people in
each city, besides those who go to the theater
and opera, would like to have trains run so
that they could go speedily from one city to
the other 1t would be great accommoda-
ton to all such if they could feel sure that a
train would leave each city at certain hour
The road will give the experiment thorough
trial.

ADJUSTMENTS.
The Emerson Concert and 4cIer Post Rep
resentation of Camp Life.

The Emerson Concert and 4cI;er Post Rep
reSentattOn of Camp Life.
The Grand Opera house was thoroughly
filled last evening by highly entertained au-
dience, who showed their pleasure by giving
hearty encore to the entire new programme.
Lizzie Higgins again showed mastery skill
and execution on the piano, while Charles F.
Higgins held all hearts and ears captive with
his violin. The Swiss song by Lilly Runals,
brought out her rare vocal powers, and in an
swer to her encore the tCows in the Corn''
was never better rendered. Walter Emerson
even exceeded his presentations in the con-
cert of the night previous, and
after the grand rendition OF
I'll Trovatore' by himself and Lem H. Wi
ley he fairly took the audience off their seat S
with ''Old Black joe" The elocutionary
powers of Miss Runals were put to their
highest test by the recitation Of "Creeds of
the Bells, ~ most humorous and attractive
piece, and by it she added to her laurels
gained in the recitation Of "Sheridan's Ride"
given on Thursday evening. Last nights
programme, to be succeeded this evening by
an entirely new one, has made the Emerson
company's reputation in St. Paul, unsteady,
to use homely phrase that will not wash
out.
The charming musical exercises were
again followed by the veterans of Acker
post in camp life representations, which were
very vivid and real, being oftentimes sad
and as often full of humor. and being
largely assisted by the Emersons their chorus
to the ''Battle Cry of Freedom cold Folks
at Home" and Marching Through Geor-
gia" thoroughly passed muster and won
them much applause The calling of the
roll, taking in as it did the names of some
of our prominent citizens, just made one
'snicker''; the appearance of Sherman
bummers in camp with their miscellaneous
booty was life picture, while the examina-
ination of Surgeon DR.. Murphy of those
claiming to be on the sick list was admirably
gone through with.
A great feature of part second of the en-
tertainment was the appearance upon the
stage of Capt. Ed S. Bean in command of a
picked squad of twelve men of Co. D. First
Regiment Minnesota National Guards. AS
on the evening previous their military evolu-
tons and manual of arms practice were ex-
ecuted with perfectness that brought down
the house with round after round of spon-
taneous applause. The firing and the bay
onet exercise, which was made an exciting
feature, was most skillfully gone through
with and compelled every lip to the utterance
of compliment and praise.
The entertainment closed with the entire
cast in the song America, which alone was
worth the price of admission. This evening
closes the engagement of the Emerson Con-
cert company with Acker post, and the en-
tcrtainment will be given with an entire
change of programme to crowded house.
