TACKLED THE WRONG MAN.
The PIensant Manner in Which u Travel
ei. Treated u Farmer.

| The PIensnnt MnnTter in Which u Trduel-
| er Treated a Farmer.
A traveller for Detroit wholesale grocery
house was the other day making a trip be-
tween two northern country towns with a
| sleigh, when one of the horses was taken
sick and he drew up at farm house and in
quired if he could put the animal out and
rest him until he recovered.
''You can," replied the woman, "but
want to tell you in advance that have run
away from my husband on two different oc-
casions-once with drover and once with a
map seller"
"Well, what Of it,"
you'll find out as soon as the old man
come s up from the slashingl He'll think
YOU are after me, and there'll be a row."
"Oh, l guess l can explain matters to
him."
Don't you wait TO explain nothing; hell
70 for YOU without word, and il you can't
wallop him he'll give you the worst licking a
atranger ever got
The horse was too i'll to 90 on, and the
agent had no resource but to stay and face
the music lie was at the barn, rubbing the
animal down, when the old man suddenly
showed himself at the door. waiting just
long enough to draw full BREATH he made
a break for the traveller. The latter dropped
his wisps of hay and felt Of farmers right
eve in way that laid him fiat. He got up
| and came again, but Was received with Il
singer on the jaw, and as he went down
the traveller got him BY the throat and held
| him fast By and by, when he dared let up
little, he explained
II was forced to sop here and take care
Of sick horse"
sWelr that's all right" replied the farm
err. Let rue up aud III help you rub him"
He was assisted to his feet and went TO
work with considerable heart. By and by he
went to the house and had his eye bound up,
and when supper was ready he insisted that
the traveller should eat with him. Not cent
would he take when the latter was 90, but, ex-
! tending his hand, he said,:
ssstranger, I've licked seven men who
stopped here within the past six months and
it kinder does me good to get knocked under
the benches Next time you come this way
stop and give me an hours lesson. Good
bye to you.-Daroit FIRE. Prem.

ADJUSTMENTS.
The "Pavements of Paris"--"My Part
ner the Coming Attraction.

A prologue should bear the same relation to q
good play as plate of savory soup to sumptu-
Gus repast. The ''Payements of Paris now be-
ing produced at the Grand has the merit of pos
sessing an admirable prologue, the spectacular
charm being exceptionally fine and the tableaux
very realistic.
The dream pictures incidental to the prologue
and the defense of Forbach are finely conceived,
the latter being piece of magnificent art. The
Place vendome scene in the first act is also su-
perb, the scenery indeed being fine throughout.
Another large and appreciative audience
greeted the performance last night, the enthus-
iasm at times being unbounded. The cast is in
the keeping of actors Of more than average abil-
ity and most enjoyable performance is the re-
suit. There will be a matinee performance this
afternoon and the engagement closes tonight.

Latest Regarding the NicOllet Trag.
Especial Telegram to the Globe l


M1SNEAPoLIs, Aug. 29.-The latest theory,
and one which seems probable to prove correct,
concerning the Ncollet tragedy as it is called, is
that Bloomer, found in room 81, inflicted the
wounds upon his head himself. The contents
of the slop jar showed that he had been
drinking heavily, and it is supposed that
while in condition bordering on
delirium tremens he was seized with a frenzy
and pounded his head with the iron coupling
pin found in his room. The fact that he was
known TO have little or no money, that it would
be nearly impossible for any one to have entered
the hotel without being seen, that no sounds of
struggle were heard by occupants OF adjoining
rooms. although one of them was awake through
the night, go to confirm this theory. 1t has also
been learned that Bloomer has had domestic
trouble, his wife having left him recently, and
that he has been broodng over it. At O'Clock
this morning he was resting quietly, and DR..
Quinby thinks by to-day he win have recovered
sufficiently to talk

CHICAGO, Aug. 29.-Ex-Senator VIM. Window
was at the Grand Pacific to-day, on his return
from pleasant trip through Colorado and Utah
territory. He professed to be without reliable
political news only so far as the section in which
he had travelled was concerned. He thought
that their was no doubt Of Blaiue's carrying Col
orado, and the voters there displayed much en-
thusiasm for the Pinned Night. In his opinion
the campaign would be fought out on the tariff
and American questions. On being told that
scandal seemed to be the most prominent issue
just now, Mr. Window remarked that if the con-
test turned on that, he, for one, would decline to
enter into it. He VIII speak throughout the
eastern states during the fall, probably com
u,encing in Ohio before the October election.
