Soldiers Homes,
70 the Editor of the Globe:

To the Editor OF the Globe:
saw an account in your paper about the
congressional investigating committees pro-
ceedings at Dayton, Ohio. As was once
unfortunate enough to be forced into either
going there or to q county poorhouse,
went, and to my surprise better place | had
never seen, and although those places have
their drawbacks, hope for the benefit of
those at the homes now, and those that may
hereafter become inmates, that the commit
tee will so amend the, laws that complaint
will hereafter be impossible. There is but
one way clear to me how to do it, and that is
the homes to be managed entirely by citizen
employees, no inmate to have any authority
over another inmate, no pay for labor done
by inmates, and any one that has ever been
an inmate not to be employed or considered
as a citizen by the home. All the trouble
saw while there originated among the in
mates themselves, and by those that legally
have no claim upon the government for sup
port, their disability not having been re-
ceived in the service, but were received in
different state prisons, while serving time
for crimes committed by them. There are
three classes OF inmates at the homes, the
big pensioner, the small pensioner and the
non-pens ioner. The two latter classes cause
nearly all the trouble at the homes, and
claim that saint from heaven would soon
lose it's temper If it had to manage one of
the homes one week. Those in charge, the
governors, mean are fine men. | know
them all, four in number, and respect them,
and as one that knows facts in the case ask
- 81 til, 4
conclusions.

take a trip around the city, and where the

He was tramp Of the simon pure quality,
and the name he is using now is George
Moore. He possesses not one single redeem
ing trait of character, and is about as near
to libel upon the name of man as anything
that travels. George is a late arrival, hav-
ing touched this city on Thursday noon. He
halls from st. Paul, and the walking being
exceedingly fine at this season he walked in.
He possesses an antipathy for railroad trains.
The last time he was yanked out of a
box car for stealing ride he experienced a
difficulty for a number of days In bringing
his body to a sitting posture without strong
feeling of discomfort George is certainly not
dilatory. He began to work his new field in
a few moments after his arrival. He made
a lift from farmers wagon which consisted
of six eartherD tea cups. Why he did not
take the saucers too was because there was
not time and besides George is not fastidious
in his habits. He is not dude in dress
either. Let the rich and opuent indulge
in the luxury of saucers he had no time for
such things. After making the capture he
wendell his way to Little Jake's'' saloon,
where few moments later he was met by
Chief WEIGH. George has not the most hon
est looking countenance in the world ami
the chief noticed that he was hugging some
thing to his bosom with more than ordinary
fervor, while with his coat he strove to hide
it from the rude gaze of the vulgar world
Before being questioned as to its nature he
said it was shirt. Chief Welch however
yanked the package and it materialized
into the afore named set Of tea cups and
George was accordingly yanked to the cage.
Yesterday he appeared before Judge Porter
who gave him ''ten days" merely as a
starter. When he gets out he will no doubt
continne his journey toward the sunny
south. Such a course would be beneficial to
his interests for when large, stout, healthy
looking men like him goes wrong and gets

HASTINGS.

Our town was visited last night by some
professional burglars who entered Fred
Schurch's store, on Vermillion street, and
although The family live in the upper part Of
the frame building the experts succeeded in
drilling Il hole in the safe into the combna-
ton and blew it up without waking the occu-
pants OF the house. Some SIS in cash were
secured aud private papers and notes were
thrown into the streets. Had the robbery
occurred few days sooner the booty secured
would have been very great loss to Mr..
Schurch. After leaving Mr.. Schurch's store
the robbers went to the barn of Senator A.
IL. Truax and harnessed up horse to Il top
buggy and escaped without attracting any
body's notice. Nothing has been heard from
the robbers up to this noon.

KanhsGtD Dairy and Produce Exchange
Proposes to make large display of dairy
products at the New Orleans international
exposition. Its managers are confident that
its members can make as good butter as can
be made anywhere, and can take more than
its proportion of the S12, 900 of prizes offered
for products of the dairy. An exhibit must
consist of at least one tub or firkin from a
single dairy and five from creamery.
There will be good market at New Orleans
for all dairy products sent there. The freight
will cost very little, and round trip ticket
for an exhibitor S25 or less. The exchange
will give q reward to every member who
makes an exhibit, and an additional prize
to every member who takes an exposition
prize. Through the courtesy of Miss G.. S.
Straight and Messrs. F. H. Long & Co. the
exchange can also promise that these parties
will furnish cold storage free for all exhibits
of members of the exchange. The exhibits
will be shipped by the car load direct from
Mankato to New Orleans late in December or
early in January.
Exposition prizes are offered for summer
make up to September 1; for the fall make,
September 1 to November 1, and for
the winter make November 1 to
January l. Our summer make is perhaps
our best, and there is barely half month
left to prepare this. WAen an Iowa butter
maker took the great international prize,
Iowa butter Immediately went to the front in
the worlds markets, and Iowa farms were
straightway sought for by eastern dairymen.
1t has been demonstrated already that in
frmness and keeping qualities Minnesota
butter surpasses Iowa butter. On the last
sale day our creamery men did not hesitate
to guarantee their goods to sell in New York
as western extras" And there is no
doubt in the mind of the president at least,
but members of the Mankato exchange can
take several of the sweepstakes prizes, if
they will only Ego in to win" 1t will cost
you some time and trouble and a little
money, but it will bring you sure and rich
harvest in years to come, and not to you only
but to all the great, dairy region of southern
Minnesota. Who has the faith and enter
prise to reach for and pluck the fruit ripen-
ing for your hands? We hope that scores, in
answer to this question, will at an early day,
send there names to the secretary.
We have an additional incentive in the
| fact that Minnesota man, c. E. Marvin,
ESQ, of Rochester, is at the head of the
dairy department of the exposition. He
wont write US to take back seats.
