4 Badger Batting.

An amusing incident in the unwritten
history of Abraham Lincoln is told by
the Hon. Ward II. Lamon of this city.
While the gentlemen were law-part-
nerS in Illinois. and before Lincoln was
thought of for President OF the United
States, they happened to visit AZ agri-
cultural fair in an inland town Of
Tennessee.
Lincoln was in high spirits and seem
ed bent on fun. While casting about
for such amusement as the exposition
afforded Lincoln discovered an attrac-
ton in the shape of turneddown -four
barrel containing badger.
Fifty dollars for dog that will
haul the badger out of the barrel,
shouted the red-faced man who owned
the outfit. Fifty dollars say, to the
dog that can haul out the badger"
There were few takers Of the bad
ger mans offer. but the luckless dog
owners who invested y cents in the
experiment invariably lost in the specu-
lation, for the badgers teeth were
sharp, and every dog that entered its
stronghold came out in jiffy, while
the ferocious animal inside held the
fort and grinned all over.
Mr.. Lincoln hit upon happy
thought Taking Ward to one side
they found lank countryman with
still tanker mastiff.
Want to make $50 with that dog?"
asked Lincoln.
Course do replied the hayseed.
The dog was bartered for, and as
Lincoln approached the badger man,
elbowing his way through the crowd,
he said:
Ill invest quarter in your game
sir.
The badger operator looked at Lin
coln's hungry dog and smiled as he
took the silver quarter.
Lincoln caught the dog and led it up
to the barrel. Hastily grabbing the
mastiff, he threw it into the opening
'tother end first. There was pause only
of second, and then followed lively
scrape inside the barrel.
Hold on there" cried the manager.
Fair play"
But he was too late With his remon-
stance. Out sprang the badly frightened
dog with the badger sticking to his
headquarters. The crowd parted, and
away went the dog and badger
into the inner field Of the race-track.
The badger stuck like a brother, teams
ran away, women tainted, and the
crowd roared. Lincoln fairly went
into spasms Of mirth, the fun was so
enjoyable.
The countryman owning the dog was
| paralyzed, as was the badger-owner,
who set up great howl and was mad
enough to fight.
Produce your $50, said Lincoln TO
| the badger-keeper
Foul play, foul play" cried the
chagrined gamester, land I'll never
pay ii"
Here is where Lamon came in service
able. Catching the badgers friend by
the neck, he cried:
Give up the $50 or I'll waliup YOU"
Lannon's herculean proportions were
too argumentary 20 be tritled with, and
the money was handed to Mr.. Lincoln,
who in turn gave it to the countryman.
The dog was well paid for, and the
badger business closed up for want Of
"a badger. -DeRU2r Tribune.

Funeral of Louis Loyd Hubbeu.

The funeral of the esteemed young man,
Louis Lloyd Hubbell, whose death was an
nounced in Wednesdays GLOBE, took place
from the residence of his father at 227 Day
ton avenue yesterday forenoon. The fu-
neral was especially sad, owing to the alb
sence of the father of the deceased-James
B. Hubbell Esq. Mr.. Hubbell left home last
Thursday for a trip to Montana and is some
where in the mountains beyond the reach Of
the telegraph. He Is expected to reach
Helena today, where tele-
gram announcing his great afiiiction awaits
him. When he left home his son was not
considered in the least dangerous, and hissud-
den death was as great shock to the family
at home as it will be 10 the absent father.
The funeral ceremonies called a large con-
course of deeply sympathizing friends to the
family residence on Dayton avenue yester-
day forenoon. The religious exercises were
conducted by Rev. Maurice Edwards, of the
Dayton avenue Presbyterian church, with
which the family are connected, and Rev.
DR.. Dana, of Plymouth Congregational.
There was profusion of choice floral offer
ings which more than covered the casket, and
marked the esteem aud affection
which many friends entertained for the de-
ceased. AT the conclusion of the service
the pail bearers, Messrs. Stanley Proudit, J.
NJ. Boyle, A. Hatch, H. S. Cleveland, Milton
Griggs and o. c. Weatherly, bore the re-
mains to the hearse and the friends followed
the remains to Oakland, where they were
deposited in a vault to await the return of
Mr.. Hubbell, when the final burial will occur

COnnpany D.

Last evening very iurge number of peo-
pie assembled at Armory hall, on Sixth
street, to attend the fourth annual hop given
by Capt. Beams Company D. This han is q
very large one, the largest in the city, but
people we're numerou enough there on this
occasion to make the room look good deal
smaller than 1t really IS. The entertain ment,
or hop, as It was called consisted of drill by
part of the company, and a
dance afterwards. The drill con-
sisted Of the general manual of
arms, company movements, loading
and firing both direct and obIique, kneeIng
aud lying down, in single and double rank
and fixing and unfxing bsyoBets The driH
was very excellent and is regarded as the
best public exhibition the com pany has ever
given Capt. Bean has worked long and
faithfully TO bring the company up to the
excellent standard It has attained to and It
was with pardonable pride that he presented
the WORK OF his company last night: The
different movements were all appIauded, es-
peeially the lying down aud firing. After
the drill was concluded the dancers took
possession OF the hall and the remainder OF
the night was given up TO dancing.

Return of an Accomplished Musician.

Mr.. and Mrs. Nicholas Pottgeiser and Mr..
Charles B. Pottgeiser returned to the city
yesterday from Boston, where Mr.. Pottgeiser
and his wife went a few weeks ago to meet
the latter on his return from Europe. Mr..
Charles Pottgeiser returned from Germany
about two weeks ago, after an absence of
over year, having for some time past been
completing his musical studies under the
best auspices of the old world. Previous to
his departure for the celebrated musical
schools of Europe he attended strict course
of studies in Prof. Petersilia's famous musi-
cal academy, of Boston, graduating from
that institution with the highest honors. AS
well earned and deserved souvenir
of the latter event he received diploma
having successfully completed the four year
course prescribed for pianoforte playing, and
before leaving it was proffered the high
honor of professorshipi in the academy from
which he graduated with such distinguished
honors. He was also presented with
costly and beautiful gold medal, on the
front OF which is the monogram of the aca-
DENY and the name of Prof. Petersilla, and
on the reverse side the inscription, ''Di-
ploma medal; awarded to Chas. B. Pottgeiser
for successfully completing the course in
piano playing" The medal is richly en-
graVed and presents an elegant appear
ance.
1t goes without saying that Mr.. Pottgeiser
is one of the most accomplished and skiilful
pianists in the northwest, position which
has been achieved only by the most long and
arduous study. 1t is understood that an eff
fort will be made to have him open an acad-
emy for the teaching of piano playing in st.
Paul, and it is to be sincerely hoped that he
may be induced by the liberal minded and
music loving citizens of st. Paul to locate in
this city. There is ample room for such an
institution and he should be encouraged and
patronized to the fullest extent.

The Retraction of a Bishop.

CLEVELAND, o., Sept. 25.--Two years ago
Bishop Gilmour, of the Cleveland diocese,
published a communication in his paper, the
Catholic U',iyerse, and in the Penny Press, In
which he charged Mr.. Edwin Cowles, editor
of the Leader, with having treated daughter
in brutal manner. So much so as to cause
her to become the invalid she was. Mr..
Cowles had the bishop and the editor of the
U1aiUerSe arrested for personul libel, and also
instituted suits in civil damages against the
bishop, the U1et0erse and Penny Press for
$25,0 900 each. Owing to the continued i'll
ness Of Mr.. Cowles' daughter her deposition
could not be taken and the cases continued
from time to time. To-day the bishop pub
lished card making retraction of the Ii.
belous charges be published against Cowles
and the suits will be withdrawn.

lief Of many tired mother, after a very long

ADJUSTMENTS.
Opening Performance of the Great
Tragedian Frederick Warde.


1t is to regretted that the opening per-
formance of Frederick Warde at the Grand
lastn light, was not accorded larger recep-
ton. The audience that greeted the first ap-
pearance of the star in this city, was only
moderate in size but the actor himself could
not asked more by way of cordial applause
and sincere appreciation. Although new to
st. Paul audiences as star, Mr.. Warde has
justly earnedthe high dramatic distinction he
has achieved by years of pa
tent and arduous study, and
his performances while engaged IN support
ing McCullogh, Barrett and other distin-
guished stars have won for him the highest
favor.
The attraction was Sheridan Knowles
great tragedy Of the Roman father ''Vir-
ginus," drama in which Mr.. McCullogh
has especially attained the highest distinc-
ton. In referring to Mr.. Warde's concep-
ton of the great centurion a comparison
with the latter is not invidious, and while the
impersonation may not rise to the complete
height attained by Mccullough, lacking per-
haps in finish, it has merits every
bit as imposing and admirable.
But there are other qualities that mark the
similitude between these two great actors.
In physique, makeup, expression, tone and
gesture Mr.. Warde recalls very vividly the
s'Virginius'' of Mccullough, with the ad-
vantage that he infuses greater force and
vigOr into the role. He is indeed admirably
suited to the part, and in some of the most
impassioned flights he rises to classic gran
deur. One does not see him at his
best in the tender passages
in the first act, but later on he becomes ideal
lied, grand and impressive. He was especi-
ailv fine in the scene in the third act, where
he sees the body of Dentatus, and his scene
with Lucius in this act was most graphic and
painful. Later on in the forum scene he i'm
presses by his nobility, dignity of bearing
and Spartan courage, while the scenes in the
last act where he is seen dethroned of rea-
son, is given with magnificent force and
finish. The last act is made grand
and fearfully imposing by the manner in
which he seeks sublime revenge. The sup
port was excellent. Mr.. Henry Aeling en-
acted the roll of Icilius in a powerful and
pleasing manner, and the Appius of Mr.
Robert c. Hudson was as forceful and fin
ished as the repulsive roll can be made.
The Virginia of Miss Willett was marked
by tender grace and finish which character
ICES her as an admirable actress in all res
poets.
Mr.. Borton was good as Cauis Claudius, as
he always is, and the support is clever
throughout.
The tragedy was superbly mounted and
the costumes were appropriate.
This evening Orchard ILL.," will be given

after them himself. 1t was well the fire
was got under control as the locality had plenty
of material for large fire. The night was
calm, and the iremen worked to the very
best advantage. The building is owned by

been called out, and the drills they have
had showed, in that they made much bet
ter time in reaching the fire, as well as a
better handling Of the fire when there.
