Commodore KittSon is in New York.
N. w. Kittson, lost at Jerome park, on
March 26, the chestnut colt Sibley, foal ed
1882, by Reform, out of Megara, Spinaway's
dam by imp. Eclipse.
N. W. Kittson has sold to Brooklyn parties
the Chestnut gelding Perilous (3), by Alarm,
dam Delight, by Jack Malone, out of Vesper-
light, by Childe Harold. Perilous will be
trained by G. McInerny. He is a well-bred
horse, and ought to show well as three-year-
old.
VIM A. Culbertson, of ST. Paul, has
purchased of w. H. Veazie and Sam Judd,
of Marine, Mimi, the well-known travelling
stallion Capt. Herod, also a son of the same
horse, known as Young Capt. Herod, dam by
Aid. Glencoe, on fathers side: mother of
mare of one of Flora Temples colts.
The price paid was IS, 400.
The sale of trotting stock at the
Midway stables of Commodore Klttson
in St. Paul, June II, by Mr. Kittson, C. A.
De Graft and Geo. W. Sherwood is attracting
the attention of horsemen very generally,
and the indications are that the sale will be a
very successful one. The stock is well known
as having been bred from some of the best
sires and dams that have ever been known
to trotting men. Catalogues can be obtained
of B. B. Woodmunsen, st Paul.
On Saturday night report came in about
IL o'clock, that the magnificent stables of
Commodore Kittson, at Midway were burn
ing. As matter of course there was a
great deal of excitement, for all know how
valuable the stock of horses he has there is.
Few coufd believe tito beoa fact that the sta
bles were on fire, still the report seemed to
be authentic. A representative of the GLOBE
went out there and found the stables still
standing with no indications whatever of a
fire.
The chestnut colt, Sir Hercules, foaled
1882, by Alarm, dam Susan Beane, by Lex
ington, out of Sally Lewis, by imp. Glencoe,
the property of Commodore Kittson, Erden-
helm Stud, Pa, died at Jerome Park, on
Tuesday, March 25. A heavier loss by the
death af one animal could not have befallen
the Erdenheim stables. Sir Hercules was
the half brother of Susquehana, Sensation and
Onondaga, and the last foal of his famous
dam, Susan Beane, who died only short
time since.

WahDeton, Dakota.

John Ellis and Oliver Homstad, two es-
teemed residents of Wahpeton, aged twenty
seven and twenty-nine, died the same day
recently, of heart disease.
Wahpeton has several exemplary, enter
terprising young men who would be glad to
be put in the way of securing gentle mothers
in-law in the states. The local supply is linn
tied.
The Wahpeton Times urges the unique rea-
son for the opening of roller rink at that
place that ''gallant young men and fair
maidens may here meet upon the level and
part upon the square"
The home talent at Wahpeton few nights
since gave an entertainment for the benefit
of the NJ. E. society, in old style costume.
The chief participants were Misses Waterbury
and Markham at the piano, and Mds. Swasey,
Troy, Pfeiffer, Hauly, HARDWOOD, LOOMS and
Workman and Miss Croker, lady singers,
assisted by Messrs. Seely, Croker, Morrill,,
Gray, Beck, Pratt, Morrill,, Pfeiffer, Banding
and perhaps others. All did admirably. One
of the most charming scenes was the tableau
of Temptation in which Miss Pfaff APP
peared as an angel. The young men now all
want to 90 to angel land. Rev. Mr.. Troy
as an Irish comedian was fine hit, and Capt.
Gregg in the Irish jig was voted fairy.

TEMPERANCE RALLY.
The High License Movement at Market
Hall TO-Njpht.

A. temperance mass meeting of all citizens
interested in the high license movement
will be held at Market hall tonight, when
it is expected that measures will be taken,
having in view a reform in the liquor
traffic.
The rally is in accordance with a numer-
ously signed call recently circulated, and
published in yesterdays issue of the GLOBE.
The move has. in view the increasing of all
liquor licenses to $500 or more, the effect of
which it is generally regarded, would be to
extirpate the low dives and gr0ggeries
which now flourish in st. Paul.
Addresses will be made tonight by quite a
number of prominent speakers, among
whom may be named such distinguished ad-
vocates of temperance reform as Right Rev.
Bishop Ireland, Rev. S. G. Smith and Hon.
Gordon E. Cole.
As this is the first marked demonstration
in behalf of the movement the friends of
temperance are expected to rally in full force
and no doubt the attendance will be great.

places. The spring meeting will take place
June and and the purses, 81, ZOO each
amyunt to $4,000. The classes are arrang-
ed so as to meet the wants of the greatest
number The entries will close on Monday
May 10, and five per cent of the purse must
accompany the entry. The summer meeting
will open on Friday, July 4, and continue
the 5, 6, Z, 8, 9, 10, II and II. This will
give as much employment to the horses as
the most grasping owner could desire, and
as the rich will attract all the great flyers to
Chicago we may look forward to a brill
liant carnival of sport. The purses are 81, 500
zach, and the classes named for July 4 are
2:17 and open to all PAGERS, johnson
barred. Saturday, the 5th, will be devoted
to 2:40 steppers and to five-year olds and
under. There are a number of fve-year
olds in the country, such as Day Dream,
Bonita, Code, Eva, Bayonne Prince and
Meander, and the contest for this purse will
arouse much enthusiasm. The card for Mon
day, July Z, calls for 2:30 trotting class and
2:27 pacing class, and on Tuesday there will
be 2:19 trotting class and 2:17 pacing
class. On Wednesday the pa trotters will
come together and the three-year olds will
battle for the supremacy. Among the thirty
five youngsters nominated for the Ashland
Stake are Alta Belle, sister of Kinda Rose;
Antevolo, by Electioneer, out of Columbine;
Counsellor, by Onward, out of Crop, the
dam of Code; Belford, by Strathmore, dam
by Mambrno Patchen; Nettilein, by King
Rene, out of Alma, and Expecta-
ton, by Gov. sprague, out of Gazelle.
Bedford is probably the best of
the lot. The card for Thursday is attractive.
There are three races, one for 2:35 trotters,
one for 2:35 PAGERS, and one for four-year-
olds. The latter is the Chicago Stakes, thir-
teen entries, among them Kinda Rose, Flu
que, Wilkes Boy, Stuart, Don Carlos, Ruby
and Bartar, all capable of trotting down in
the twenties. On Friday the three-minute
trotters and the 2:22 PAGERS will demand at
tention, and on Saturday, July II, the trot-
ting classes are :27 and 2:21. Specials will
be arranged so as to call out Johnston, jay
Eye-Sce, st. Julien, Trinket, Clingstone,
Phallas and double teams. The entries will
close on Thursday, May l, and the ~ per
cent. installment plan will govern. The
Chicago Driving Park is famous for great
battles and memorable gatherings, and the
July meeting for 1884 promises to rival, if
not eclipse, any other ever held there.

At Bozeman, recently, w. w. Anderson,
editor of the Advaat Courier, had family re-
union, and his eldest daughter, Miss Lima, a
cultured, amiable and sweet young lady who
has spent eighteen years in Montana, was
married to s. S. Houston. The nine child
rem were present, three OF them married,
with one grandchild and two mothers-in-law.
The happy couple, after the ceremony and
supper, repaired to their home, very sensibly
emitting the wedding trip, and were serenad-
ed by the cornet band.
The Bozeman Chronicle has hopes of finding
gold in that vicinity. Itsays: 'It has been
known for many years that the gravel depos-
its about Bozeman contained gold, but not
enough prospecting has been done to deyel-
ope whether it exists in paying quantities or
not Mr.. NJ. Mounts has received a fine
prospect from piece of quartz found in
Bozeman creek, right in town, and is now
prospecting the gravel. We have long held
to the opinion that good quartz mines would
yet be found in the mountains adjacent, and
the finding of this quartz demonstrates that
it has come from some lead in the noun
tains near by. We trust that prospecting
will be done the coming summer, and we be-
lieve twill result in finding good mines..'

Spokane Falls is confident of securing q
r. X. from that place to the Ceur d'Alene
mines to be in operation by next fall. The
past week the first venture was made to ship
goods from the Falls to the mines by water.
The ReUieO says of the steamboat: ''The
steamer is a little beauty of % tons burden
and has been constructed with the chief aim
of navigating shoal water. The regelar trips
will be made every other day, sailing from
Rockford landing and running to the drift, a
large impeachment to navigation that has
accumulated in the river five miles below
Eagle City. With this opening of lake travel
which will Immediately be followed by the
steamers from Ceur dAlene City, will give
those bound for the mines an easy method
of reaching the new Ell Dorado. In fact we
believe that when navigation opens in ear
nest, which may be looked for next week.
Spokane Falls will be the only route Travelled
to the mines, as we have stages running
daily to make close connections with boats,
and it does away with the long, arduous and
dangerous overland trip from the other So
called trails into the district from other points
on the Northern Pacific"
The same paper also has these items from
the mines:
Potatoes are $27 per bushel and not very
plentiful at that price.
The Jackass trail is said to be open, and
is claimed to be a very desirable route to the
mines.

FIRE DEPARTMENT.
Reasons Why Accidents Occur in
Going to Fires.

All the firemen who were injured Saturday
night were reported by Chief Black yesterday
as doing well. George De Coursey, whose
injuries were considered the most serious,
was much better, and he fortunately sus-
tanned no internal disarrangement.
In speaking of the recurrence of accidents
to the department yesterday, Chief Rack said
that nearly all the trouble was owing to a
misunderstanding on the part of the public;
as rule, persons driving on the
street paid very little attention to
the gong, and to make matters
worse instead of giving the department the
right of way they drove all over the streets,
making rapid Roadway impossible. 1t is not
known whether the city has law giving the
fire department the right of way or not, but
common sense would seem to dictate the
necessity of some such provision.
One reason why accidents seem more fire.
quent than formerly is due to the vast in
crease in the number of runs.
To illustrate, it may be
mentioned that during the first three months
of this year there were one hundred and six
runs, against sixty-three runs for the whole
period of 1882, and 81 runs during the year
of 1881. This, it will be seen, is an alarm
ing increase and the recurrence of accidents
is not to be wondered at.

Judge West writes to Yankton that the

Jas. H. Teller, the secretary and acting
governor of Dakota, has issued proclama-
ton, recommending that the people of the
territory observe Wednesday, April %, as
Arbor day, devoted to the planting of trees.
The matter has been urged in this column
and it is to be hoped that it will be generally
observed.
The Kimbal1 Graphic says: Dakotaians
are the hardest workers and busiest people
in existence, but they manage to sandwich
in a good deal of fun and amusement. AL
most every town has a skating rink, dane
| ing club and no end of social organizations
which bring an unceasing round of pleasure
the year through.
One of the papers says: "At a Volga
Presbyterian oyster supper the gentlemen
appeared with beautiful flowers lavishly
pinned at the button holes. The local paper
wants it understood that flowers bloom as
sweetly and smell as fragrant in Dakota as
they ever did in the hot house gardens of
the east. And it is worth while to notice
ha thn
the gentlemen"
This is the home view: The climate of
Dakota is better than all the porous plasters,
live, perambulators and lung balsams that
quacks or chemists skill ever invented. It's
merry zephyrs, which untutored barbarians
of the outside world decry as billiards, sweep
all miasma and malaria away from our rich
and beautiful valleys and plains. The pure,
clear, healthful and invigorating atmosphere
of Dakota is a medical institute Of itself.
