foresight" remarked hizzoner yesterday
as he got onto the bench, "has justly been
rated by the philosophers of the world as the
peculiar gift or characteristic of wisdom, and
by its proper exercise one sometimes averted
the greatest calamities of the world.''
'Stand a little closer Mr.. Muller" said
the bailiff to the gentleman to whom the re-
marks of the court were evidently addressed.
Mr.. Muller, who, by the way, is no relation
of the gentle lady who went into the
garden on memorable occasion, had ex-
ercised his foresight in peculiar way. He
evidently thought of the spring freshet and
the floods, and to guard against accident he
cabbaged pair of rubber boots from in front
of a store. He was right in his surmise as
to the freshet, but he took the wrong way OF
getting the boots and now he will languish
for thirty days.
James Mcclure, tough customer, whose
familiar mug is dirty and homely enough to
stop clock, was also up for larceny. He it
was who got into row about month ago
and lost a section of his nose, one of his
partners having made meal from that use
full part of his anatomy. Last Monday he
stole robe and left it in saloon at Fifth
and Minnesota streets. The flowers Of June
will be in bloom when he gets out again for
he went to the joint for ninety days.
Robert Harris is young and tough and
colored. On Robert street, last Wednesday
this precocious youngster saw Soloman
Lemheveski, Hebrew citizen, coming along
and he thought he would enjoy himself at
the Israelites expense. AS Soloman ap-
preached, the bad little boy got in front Of
him and would not let him pass under threats
of being snowballed. Soloman went back
and got policeman and had the kid arrest
ed. Yesterday Judge Burr warned him that
should he appear in court again it would go
hard with him, and with this understanding
the bulldozer was discharged.
Daniel Flor is one Of large family who
live in the same shanty; he was before the
court yesterday on the charge of bulldozing
his brother-in-law. As an excuse he alleged
that the latter had tried to fire his father out
of the house. Flor gave bonds to keep the
peace.
When Pat Hoagberg was arraigned he said
he was not in his right head, and he bore the
appearance of crank. He was charged
with assault, which consisted in chawing the
finger of one of his boarders. He gave bonds
for future good behavior.
Hannah Benteen bobbed up again yester-
day, just as if she had not been arraigned
the day before and discharged ON condition
that she would leave town. She had been
drunk again, and yesterday she said that she
couldn't go away. She went out for 80 days

Pitiful DeStltutiOn.

August KEEPER, lad twelve years of age
was arrested yesterday for begging. From
what could be learned of the case it is one
that calls for the exercise of both public and
private charity. About two months ago the
humble dwelling of the KEEPER family in
East st. Paul, was invaded by four ruffiians,
who committed brutal and dastardly as
sault on Mrs. Helper, who was
then in critical condition, and
ever since the ruffianly assault she has been
in extremely poor health. The family con-
sists of the mother and father and several
small children and the head of the unhappy
household is an invalid, his sight being al
most destroyed. For some time they have
been on the verge of starvation, and
according to the testimony of a

The Minstrels Last Night.

In spite of the driving snow storm and
keen wind of last night, large audience as
sembled at the Grand to witness the second
performance of Haverly's Mastodon min
strels.
As to the enthusiastic reception accorded
the show it were needless to enlarge on what
was first said of this bright and entertaining
performance. The songs, jokes, witticisms,
lively speciality acts and general run of
funny business make up an entertainment
that has never been excelled in the minstrel
line, while the audience fairly becomes
hysterical with delight. The company pos
sesses several fine vocalists, among whom
may be named Mr.. Edwin Hanley, Thos.
Campbell, Luke Schoolcraft, Mr.. Johnson,
Mr.. Wood, the quintet and others. There
will be matinee performance this afternoon
and the engagement closes tonight.

afraid of the Precedent.


We had few days ago an example of the
very fine discrimination of congress in the
voting down of resolution to give the wild
ow of Mr.. Jesse H. Moore the balance of his
years salary as counsel to Callao, because
forsooth, it did not wish to make precedent
in cases of that kind, notWiths landing the
same thing had been done before at various
times in respect to ministers to courts.
What may we understand by thiss That the
United States does not care to treat her lower
officers, her less important representatives
with the same fairness, the same consldera-
ton, as she does those higher in power.
She bows to the man she herself has made
by placing him high in authority and giving
him princely salary, while her
humble servants-those who can
scarcely live upon their meagre
salaries she scarcely treats with respect
Here we have two very prominent illustra-
tions of this in the deaths of our minister to
Russia, Mr.. Hunt, and our consul to Callao
The one is treated with all due honor
while the other is passed by almost I'M
noticed.
There is little doubt that the widow of one
will receive the balance of her deceased hus-
bands yearly salary of some $4,000, while
the other has just been denied the compare
lively scanty allowance of S1,036.
In this congress fails to show that large
and generous spirit, which might be reason
ably expected from such body.
1t adopts the same plan pursued by all
! monopolies, favors the strong and sacrifices
the weak.
Its charity, if such it may be
called, is extended to those who
need it not, while it withholds
helping hand from those deserving its as
siStance.
1t is the same spirit as illustrated in the
government of our large railway corpora
tons. those bodies which are commonly said
| to have no souls. Their presidents, superin-
tendents, general managers, ETC., draw their
handsome salaries on duty or off, but let q
conductor or brakeman be laid up by sick
| ness or accident and their wages are with
held. But congress is always supposed to
| possess a soul, although at times perhaps hard
| to detect, yet one broad and deep, which has
| the good of the people at heart, and it is
| painful to see it grow so narrow as to refuse a
simple act of charity, because fearing to
form precedent which may be taken adj
vantage of.
Thus they now set bad example lest a
| good deed may in the future bring forth evil
| fruit. s.NON-DUM.n

Ravages of Yellow Fever and Locusts.
CITY OF MEXICO, July 15.-Yellow fever is quite
bad at Guayama as, and several cases have appeared

place, and the authorities of aenmosillo have put

examine every train, and the cars are Obliged to be
fumlgated before they are allowed to pass. The
fever this year appears TO be confined to the Pacific
Gulf ports.
The locusts are, however, making up for it, In
several OF the places of Vera Cruz they have de-
stroyed every vestge of the standing corn and the
people fear starvation, In the State of Yucatan so
poor have they rendered the population that in
many places the people have been obliged to give up
