THE JOBBERS' UNION EXCURSIO
TO Start Bright and Early Monday
Morning for the Land of
Golden Grain.

The third of the series of the st. Paul job
bers' Union excursions takes place this
week, covering the entire space from Mon
day morning to Saturday night, inspecting
the Manitoba system, the trip extending to
Winnipeg and Devils Lake, points which
until somewhat recently have seemed like
the furthermost parts of the earth.
Practice makes perfect, and guided by
former experience the preparation and out
fit for the Red River valley excursion in
some regards surpasses those of the
preceding visitations, complete and
enjoyable as they were. The palace train
will consist of three official coaches, four
Pullman's, the band car, dining car, bag
gage car, ten ears in all. The programme Of
the route has already been published by the
GLOBE and includes stops at over ninety
towns in Minnesota, Dakota and Manitoba,
affording an opportunity for observations
that no organized excursion has ever Of
fered in regard to that section Of country.
Among the enjoyable features Of the out
ing will be a moonlight lake ride from
Devils Lake to Fort Totten, and concert by
the splendid military band stationed at the
fort. This is but one of many pleasurable
incidents in contemplation to be
enjoyed by those who are so
fortunate as to be members of the excur-
sion.
Another feature that may be mentioned is
the attendance Of the Jobbers' Union Glee
Club, revised and improved for the occasion,
composed as follows: Prof. G. G.. Titcomb,
musical director; r. j. White, II. T. Drake,
first tenors; w. J. Dyer, w. n. Burritt, sec
ond tenors; Richards Gordon, G. 7. Schur-
meier, first bass; &. II. Bigelow, Jr., Z. F.
Barrett, second bass.
Whatever may transpire during to sojourn
Of the Jobbers' Union and their guests in the
Land OF Golden Grain viii be related for tbs
edifcation Of the readers Of the GLOBE.

sT. PAUL MANUFACTURERS.


The total value of the products of st. Paul's
manufactures in 1870 was but little over
S1,000,000, and less than 1000 persons, all
told, were afforded employment in the in
dustrial establishments of the city. At this
time it was beginning to be evident that the
town would soon become railway and COM
mercia center, and the idea once seize
upon, 1t grew at home and abroad, until it
completely overshadowed all thought or talk
of the possibilities of the young metropolis as
Il manufacturing place. Indeed, the general
rule was TO disclaim importance for st. Paul
in the industrial line. In the meantime art
and science, always less obstrusive than com
merce and finance, builded more rapidly and
extensive than was publicly appreciated, un-
Til now the official figures prove that manu-
factures have really kept pace with every
other feature of development. The sub
joined tabulated report shows that the manu-
factures of st. Paul have increased from So
establishments in 1870, employing 9S5 per-
sons and aggregating S1,6l1,37S value of
products, to 75S establishments. in 1SS3
with 1879 employees and S25, $50, All value
of products The table indicates that this
growth to greatness has been remarkably
steady and persistent. and that st. Paul can
not fail to become the future seat of manu-
factures while it is becoming the metropolis
of the northwest in other respects. The
statistics given are the best possible proof
that shrewd manufacturers no longer regard
cheap motive power (water) as an essential
in the question of location, compared with
railway, financial and market facilities af-
forded; and just in proportion as this city
wakes strong in these latter respects, so will
manufactures increase and thrive. Not less
than 64 new, and mostly important, manu-
featuring enterprises were established dur
ing 1888.

Drowned Without Donht.

At one O'Clock yesterday Robert Bluel, who
ives at the upper levee, found two suits of
boys clothes on the river bank near Delany
& O'Oonnor's stock yard, but not until 7:15
last evening did he report the fact to the Off
GERS at the city hall where he brought the
clothes, and where they can now be seen for
the purpose of recognizing their owners. The
two coats are of cheap dark goods, one pair
of the pants Is dark and the other brown,
while one Of the hats is mixed straw and
the other of a heavy wollen mate
rial In the pockets of one pair
of pants was found well-worn red pocket
book in which was heavy chased ring, sup
posed to be of gold, and draft reading as
follows:

The clothing resembled that of poor BOYS
from eight to twelve years old, and how one
of them became possessed of this draft is
about as much mystery as their disappear
ance, as in the latter case it is certain that
they must have gone in bathing, got out of
their depth and been drowned.

A TRIP oyER THE LINE.

In company with Capt. Oyerton, the super
intendent of the water works, GLOBE re-
porter went over the line Of pipes being laid
for the purpose of gaining any information
possible. The first trip extended over the
line of thirty inch pipe now being laid from
the city to the low service reservoir. The
pipe are stored in convenient places along
the line, and as needed are earted to the
place where it is intended to use them.
MOVING THE PIPES.
The truck or wagon upon which the pipes
are moved is peculiar piece of machinery
and admirably adapted for It's use. Instead
of being between the wheels the axles are
placed over them. This is secured by bend
ing the axle up from the thimble, and, at the
desired height, bending it again ct right
angles. Two parallel bars, one on either
side, pass from the front axle to the rear one,
and in this position are firmly secured. Be
tween these, both at the front and rear, 9
windlass, which is moved by ratchet wheel,
is secured. When it is desired TO load a
pipe the wagon is placed over It, chain
from each windiass passed underneath, 2
few turns at the cranks are given, and in a
few seconds the massive piece Of metal il
suspended to the truck. A section OF thirty
inch pipe, weighing over two tons. was
loaded in this manner By four men in one
minute and eleven seconds.

An Infant Child Strangled and
Thrown Into the Back Yard.
The Genoa Courier Of Saturday has the
following: Last Wednesday a shocking
and horrible discovery was made by SOM
little boys who we're at play in q certain
back yard in the upper end OF cur town.
While running around, they noticed some
thing wrapped up in q blanket, which was
slowed AVA under some brush and other
rubbish. Through natural curiosity they
pulled it out, and ~unwrspping the blanket.
were greatly surprised and frightened when
they found wrapped therein the body Of q
baby, The news Of the find spread rap
idly, and il was not long before q large
crowd was on the spot. The Coroner, after
summoning q jury, proceeded to hold an
inquest. On examination il was found to
be the remains of q fully matured male
child. 1t was ascertained that the child
had been choked to death by q string that
was found around its neck, and which was
drawn tightly ssabout it's throat. The re-
mains we're in quite q state Of decomposition,
and 1t is thought that the body has been
where IL was found ever since the snow was
on the ground. The Coroner's jury has
not rendered its verdict yet, but 10 expected
today. The body was buried yesterday.
This Is certainly q horrible and most GRIM
inAl decd. and the perpetrators Of 1t should
be hunted TO the lowest depths and made
70 suffer the most severe penalty attached

he made things blue in the alley, fighting
like q little Turk. Then he went out on
the street and began stoning the street cars
and assaulting policemen. You see me

Georges father was informed that when
due legal proof of the charge he made was
produced a warrant would be issued. As
the infant b~acchanslian did not know the
nature Of an oath, and his father had not
seen him buy the liquor, the pair went in
search OF other witnesses.

A Family Covered Under the Debris
of n Falling House,


By q letter from J. B. Megsrrigle, at the
Muddy, the Phoebe Record learns that a
fatal accident befell the family Of Moses
Steen, at Mineral Park, Arizona, early on
the morning of the Sd inst. On that
morning the building occupied by Moses
Steen and family as a dwelling-house, in
the rear of the hotel at that place, fell in,
caused by the cellar wall giving way. The
letter states: Sufficient debris was
moved to get at the bodies Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Steen, but upon discovering that they were
both dead, attention was turned to finding
the three children. Nellie, the eldest, was
found next, but quite dead, while lying
across her body was the youngest, Mabel,
8 years old, apparently uninjured. She
was taken out and cared for. Attention
was then turned to getting out Henry, the
other child, about 6 years old. He could
be heard calling for help a long time be-
fore the men could get at him. When
found it seemed impossible that he could
have escaped with his life, his body being
fearfully doubled up, n of his legs being
thrown over his shoulder. He was rescued
from his perilous position. His head was
badly injured, but he will, it is believed,
soon recover" Moses Steen is the brother
of Bob Steen, who was at n time the
Sheriff Of Nye county, New, and is we'll
known in this State.

There has been q good deal Of trouble

Sfabbing Array.

A gentleman who came in from Hamil-
ton last night brought the news that q
stabbing affair occurred there on Monday.
1t appears from his account that DR..
Lockwood, an old gentleman well known
here, was in conversation with another
man, when Pete Decook, a carpenter who
formerly lived in Eureka. came up and
interfered. Being told to go away, he
whipped out q knife and stabbed Lock
wood in the face. making q long, ugly
cash from Just below the eye down TO the
neck. Lockwood drew q pistol to IRE
upon Decook, when outsiders interfefed
and knocked il out Of bis hand, and jump
ing onto Decook beaA him severely for
making the assault. Or. Lockwood is a
very old man. and the wound, though not
necessarily serious, is likely to cause him
much trouble. for he lost q great deal OF
blood before the artery, which had been
severed, could be caught up. Decook was
arrested and put in jail.

Reno Gazette: Gen. P. e. Conner, who
has given as much Of his life and thought
to the Mormon question as any man in
America, gave it as his opinion last Sun
day, in a conversation with the editor Of
the Gazette, that the way to settle polyg-
amy was to annex Utah to Nevada, after
passing a law that no one who teaches,
breaches or practices %polygamy shall be
entitled to vote. He thinks il would be
entirely practicable to enforce such . law,
and it would bring the Mormon Church
to its proper place, which is not that OF
carrying on the Government. 1t should
be forced TO keep its hands off State affairs
and be what the Methodist or Episcopal
Churches are, the organized media Of wor-
ship. Such a move would, in Gen. Con-
nor's opinion, give Nevada q rich and
abundant field, with ample means to carry
on a State. It ought to reduce taxation
and establish q great and independent
State,
