StilIscater Notes.

Miss Beasman, of Minneapolis, is visiting at
Mr.. W. G. Clarke's.
T Attorney Frank H. Ewing left on Wednesday
evening by the Omaha road on business
trip.
Mrs. Esterly, of Minneapolis, is visiting with
Mrs. Churchill, at the residence Of Mr.. John s.
Proctor.
W. s. Conrad our jolly tobacconist returned
yesterday afternoon from business trip to Chi
cago. His trip took none of the flesh off him.
The brick work at the Congregational church
is finished, well the first coat Of plastering-
and in few weeks it will be ready for worship.
Senator Sabin was round the city yesterday
shaking hands with his many friends He looks
hale and hearty, and ready for a good business
contest.
The Merry War was presented at the Grand
Opera house last evening to very fair audience
and the light opera was thoroughly enjoyed, those
present regrettng that it was not to be presented
n second time.
The great fishing match between Charlie Boo
and Charlie Mosier resulted in favor of the
former, but they did not like to boast of the
number caught.
Would some of our readers inform US what Is
required to become members Of the Army OF the
Tennessee? We have several in this city who
were with that army, and no doubt they would
be pleased to join if they only knew the form OF
procedure.
Mr.. Goodsall, fathor of Engineer Goodsall who
died last week, was in the city from Iowa. Dur
ing the six years he has been away the city has
made such strides that he would hardly know it.
Especially was this the case at the prison, where
he worked twelve years ago, as at that time there
only one blacksmith forge, whilst now there
are over thirty.
Yesterday the Northwestern Manufacturing
& Car company shipped one of the Minnesota
Chief separators and engines to the exposition at
Louisville. They pressed with work
that they had not time to send south anything
extra, but they sent a good, servicable machine,
that will do good work.
Gen. Mark d. Flower, inspector general of
steam vessels for the district, Capt. Geo. W.
Gordon, inspector Of steamboat hulls, and John
Scott, inspector of boilers and machinery, were
in the city yesterday locking after the steamboat
interests in behalf of the government.
The new hotel built by Nelson & Co., of st.
Paul, at the corner of Main street and Commar
cial avenue (pardon US for calling it street
formly,) is so far advanced that Mr. Rosenfeldt
and his family have moved into it, their furni-
ture and household goods arriving from st. Paul
y
ing citizen in our midst as Mr.. Rosenfeldt, and
no doubt he will do well in Saltwater.
On Wednesday the Wisconsin authorities
pulled the ranch lately opened by Dick Willett
They are determined to suppress the house, as
Dicks reputation is SO very unsavory that he is a
dangerous one to be in charge of such an estab
| lshment, or any other. Gov. Hubbard made a
mistake when he pardoned him. No doubt the
authorities will proceed, at early date against
him under the state law, which makes it state
prison offense That house and one two
others are to be broken up, as crime is rampant
among them.
Remember the price of tho DAILY GLOBE is
seventy-fve cents month, which includes the
Sunday issue. At this price it is delivered to
any point within the city. A canvasser for an
other paper has asserted that the Sunday issue is
not included. That assertion is not true. No
paper delivered in this city works well for the
interests of Saltwater, gives its readers such
budget of news from this section. We work in
the interests Of the city, and are not antagonstic
| to it. Compare our Saltwater news with that of
the one that for long time the leading daily
| taken here.
| BY posters just issued, we see that the Wash
ington county fair comes of at Lilly Lake Driving
park, on the 9Th, 10th, 18th and 18th days of
|
the display of stock, implements, and the fine
| arts win equal anything ever yet shown in the
! county. The people are invited to make it a
| success The track is the best in the northwest,
| and some of the most celebrated trotters and run
ners will strive to win the valuable prizes, The
GLOBE will keep its readers posted on all matters
of interest in respect to the fair.
| The foundry that was burned couple of weeks
ago. belonging to Isaac Staples, has been replaced
! by one at the boiler shop, with addition added
| for the foreman. Mr. George NJ. Swain expects
| to have blast off on Saturday. This is what we
would call sharp work, and we are glad of it, as
| Mr. Swain will be able thereby to surmount all
the difficulties by which he has of late been sur
| rounded His hands are full to repletion with
| orders, but he has men as assistants that can do
| all with which they are contracted to the entire
| satisfaction of the public. George deserves the
support he gets from the public. Anderson is
still with him, and that is a sufficient guarantee
Would it not be a good idea to have series of
games of base ball arranged between the cities of
St. Paul Minneapolis and Saltwater inviting all
| the neighboring amateur clubs to play in these
| Cities making the matches at so much per cent.
| of the gate money. This would create an interest
in base ball. Sand the heavy salaries paid to league
| teams would cease to be burden. A division in
| this manner would be, we think, fair: 40 per
| cent to the Base Ball park owners, 35 per cent.
to the winning club and 25 per cent. to the los
| ing team, or some such basis as would be
satisfactory to all parties. This idea is worthy
of consideration, and a team will be fully or
ganized here in day or two for practice, and to
play games, committee of the director of the
Base Ball park should be appointed to wait on
those of st. Paul e. Minneapolis.
Yesterday we visited the church of the Immac-
;eN
and we find that considerable work has been
done since its conservation. All the windows
are in place. and most beautiful ones they are,
each opposite window being mates in every par
ticuar The seating is completed, and we find
that the work in this corresponds with the hand
some structure. They are comfortable to sit
upon, and the railing on the top of each seat does
not Jog you in the back. The ends of the seats
have heavy dark arm pieces. the whole being
well finished. There are eighty seats, uniform
in appearance, and they give the church a com
peted appearance. The numbering is peculiar.
the odd numbers being on The south side, while
the even numbers are on the north. They are of
gold on blue ground work. When the railing
and confessional are erected, the church will be
about completed
| We learn that committee of three has been
appointed by Company to secure rifle range,
as they are gong IN 10 secure the nag tnat Il 10
be competed for this fall, and are to win it, if
| good shooting can do SO. The committee is
! good one, being composed Of Lieut.. Castle. Ser
| geant Lee and private Barclay. They are gen
tlemen that will attend to whatever duty is i'm
I posed on them. The range will most likely be
| Immediately south of the base ball grounds
| The armory is no doubt good place to drill,
| only it is too small, and should the men encamp

! there would be just the thing. 1t will be diff

They are going in for the prize at White Bear for
| the best drilled company. well as the flag for
! shooting Success attend you, my boys, and
| with practice you will win.
