The KepIer Case.
To the Editor of the Globe.

IO lue Ul Tic GlOUe.
Permit me to say in reference to your re-
marks in yesterdays GLOBE about the boy
August Kepler or Gable, that during the year
past have had personal knowledge of fire.
quent instances of his soliciting aid for his
"sickm other and hungry sister, etc. ,''when she
was not sick but well able to work, and of his
giving false statements as to their residence
Saying, for example, that they lived near the
corner of Wabashaw and Iglehart, when they
were not and never have, Also that both the
boy and the father have been furnished easy
work, but would not do it, preferring to have
the boy beg. Also that Rev. E. R. Irmscher,
the city missionary, assures me that from per-
sonal observation of the family he knows the
boys recent statements in regard to their
sickness have been untrue.
If they must live without work, either from
incapacity or unwillingness, it would seem
the best way for the parents to be kept at
the county house and that some disposal be
made of the children by which they shall not
grow up to be professional beggars. Re
spectfully yours, R. HALL,
Secretary Relief Soc
In spite of this rebutting testimony the
GLOBE has reason to believe that there is
something peculiar in this Kepler case and
that there are wheels within wheels which
make the prosecution of this boy matter of
persecution to accomplish certain ends which
are not strictly the "ends of justice. "-[ED

A Sweet Singer Gone Home.

In the spring of 1880 the world known
vocalist of sacred song, as well as composer,
Philip Phillips, gave several concerts, mainly
in the Methodist churches in the lower river
cities in this state, as also at Minneapolis
and Duluth, and returned to the east by way
of the lakes. On this occasion he was ac-
companied by his estimable wife and two
sons, the eldest of whom, James, will be re-
membered for his wonderful clevcrness, dis
tinctness, volume and sweetness of voice, as
he assisted his father at what was denomi-
mated his Evenings of song" The sad news
comes to friends here that James Clark
Phillips deceased at Fredonia, n. Y, at the
age of twentythree years, on the 10Th of
February, in the very flower of his manhood,
which will be regretfuIy learned by all who
ever came within the range of his soulful
song or the gentle and genial atmosphere of
his acquaintance.

State Superintendent of Public Instruc-

Minnesota will confer favor by publishing

State School exhibits for Minnesota at the Ma

This department has been informed of a
general purpose among the states of the
northwest to present exhibits of such work
and appliances as will show what the present
plans, facilities and products of the schools
are.
If this is a general movement, Minnesota
has great interest in it. We shall learn

All the fours, except those with the serial
numbers of 2,117, ALP and 2,119 are
marked 'patent process" The three ex-
ceptions are distinguished respectively as
''Snow Cloud,' from the Pembina mills,
and ''Fargo's Best" and ''Fargo No. 1
Straight from the Fargo mills.
When it is remembered that the flour made
in the Minnesota and Dakota mills in the
above list, were from wheat that had only
about 105 days to mature from the time of
planting, instead of 1875 days, as is usual,
the analysis is certainly cause for astonish-
ment.
If this can be accomplished here, under
such circumstances, surely this country has
nothing to apprehend from the competition
of states in lower ATTITUDES.

The engagement of Haverly's Mastodons
closed at the grand last night to rousing
audience. The performance bristled with
fun, and it is safe to say that the show has
given more enjoyment to the cube than any
minstrel entertainment ever given in st.

cork diamonds and they all shine in their
several specialties. The matinee was also
well attended and the performance was en-

of the Wool Growers convention, representing

half million sheep, or an annual production o

The Last RLi-enrd.

The storm that broke out Tuesday night
along all the lines in the Northwest, spent its
force during the night and yesterday morn
ing the sun came out bright and pleasant.
Several days before n few inches of snow had
fallen, when this blizzard came up and lifted
the snow around in terrible manner. All
agree that while the wind storm lasted
it was the worst one that was ever encounter
ed in the northwest, and trains on the
Northern Pacific and the st. Paul IL Manitoba
roads had to be side tracked, where they re-
NAMED till the storm passed On the North
ern Pacific the engineers found some of the
cuts with from fifteen to twenty feet of
snow in them. The Hastings d Dakota
was blocked with snow and trains were
abandoned. The Minneapolis d St. Louis
and the st. Paul IL Duluth roads were treated
in the same manner The Inconvenience to
all the roads was not Of long duration and
yesterday, with but two exceptions, all of the
trains were pretty nearly on time OF course
there was more or less delay owing to the
snow and seet, which required carefulness
on the part Of the engineers and conductors.
Every thing is gradually coming out all
right.

MINNESOTA AND DAKOTA WHEAT.
Scientific Analysis made by National
DEPARTMENT Agriculture.

The extraordinary rapid growth of the
wheat crop in the northern part of this state
and Dakota last season, due to the unusually
backward and wet spring which delayed plow-
ing some two or three weeks, had an influ-
ence in impairing the quality somewhat,
though not nearly to the extent that was
feared. The following analysis of number
of the samples made by the assistant chemist
of the agricultural department at Washington,
D. c., shows not only that it is not deficient
in nutritious elements, but still possesses
much larger share of them than is found
in either the spring or winter grains of this
country generally. The samples grown in
this state were not selected, but represent the
general average of the wheat grown north
of the 18th parallel. Of those fromDakota and
from the Canadian provinces, nothing is
known as to whether they were selected or
not. Some of them probably were. For
convenience of comparison, they are ar
ranged in tabular form, viz:

EXPENSE OF CONSTRUCTION VERY
GREAT.

TRed Bluff Daily Democrat February 13th.l
The papers in northern California are
discussing the proposition before Congress
to forfeit the land grant to the California
and Oregon Railroad Company, and most
of them oppose the measure. This road
has been in operation as far as Re6ding, IN
Shasta county, for several years. From
that point to the Oregon line the route is
over broken, mountainous country, and
the expense of construction would be very
great. There has been some grading and
tunneling done north of Redding, lately,
but the company makes excuses for not
prosecuting the work heretofore, and SAYS
the traffic of the country through which
the road will pass will not justify it in
building the road without the land grant.
The Colusa San has this to say concern
ing the matter "The land above the
present terminus, twenty miles beyond
Redding, is not OF much value,
unless the road is built. 1t ia ad-
mitted to be the most difficult piece OF
road on the continent to build. The grant
will give the company credit to build the
road. It is to the interest of California,
and particularly of San Francisco, to have
the road built now, and owned and con-
trolIed by company interested in making
a business center around the bay. Will
the road be built over this rough country
without the credit given by the grant ?
There is not enough business now, we
opine, to justify the expenditure of the
money necessary for its construction. We
do not state it as fact that there is not
enough business; we do not know that
there will be days delay in the construc.
ton by the California company If the grant
should he forfeited. We DO not know that
there is any danger of the Oregon company
building on down and diverting trade from
Califo mia that local company would be
interested in maintaining. We are not in
position to give this information, but if
we were memb of Congress from Cali
fornia we would inquire into the interest
of this State in that behalf"

A DIVINE SANCTITY.
Science tells us that this discoloration of
the skin is disease, something akin to
leprosy. In the Government studs in In

with large pink blotches, while among the
native Princes beasts with heads that are
altogether pink, or parts of whose bodies
are similarly colored, are by no means un.
common. Not being Buddhists the natives
of India do net, of course, attach the same
reverence to them as do the people OF Siam
