WE have received the Sth number
of the Fort Meade Pioneer, a journal
published at Ft. Meade Polk county
Florida. TT. Meade is station on
the South Florida railroad which
has been recently opened through a
most desirable section of the State,
It is said to be healthy and to have
most delightful climate.
From the Pioneer we should judge
TT. Meade was quite a place. They
have live paper, a High school
stores livery stables, etc, and al
that goes to make up town.

Mayor Pillsbury yesterday issued an
order, in accordance with which the chief
of police hoisted flag at half-mast over
the city building, while the chief engineer
of the fire department displayed the en-
blems of mourning over the various fire
stations. Democrats all over the city and
some of the patriotic Republicans hoated
flags at half-mast over their places of bust
ness, but many prominent structures gaveno
token of grief at the death of the vice
president. 1t was matter of remark that
the chamber of commerce. which for
thirty DAYS displayed the national colors at
the death of Grant, yesterday gave no sign.
The death OF Mr.. Hendricks was fruitful
topic of discussion all day. and the daily
papers were eagerly sought for the details
OF the sad event, as well as for
the reception of the news in Washington.
The succession to the presidency OF the SEN
ate was discussed in all its bearings, the
Democrats favoring Edmunds, as the
choice must be Republican, while the
members of that party were largely in favor
of Logan. The Democrats seemed to re-

TUR KEY DAY.
How Minneapolis Observed the Day
on which We Are Grateful.

If one could imagine Sunday with the
churches in full blast, and yet the saloons,
billiard rooms and bowling alleys wide open
| and the streets thronged with people. he
| would have very fair idea of Thanksgiv-
ing day in Minneapolis. The weather was
superb and the sun never beamed upon a
fairer specimen of the Minnesota Indian
summer. This was cause OF rejoicing with
strangers at the hotels, one of whom had
Just exchanged greetings with friend in
Reading. Pa. The dispatch he received in
formed him his friend was enjoying the
first sleighing of the season." His reply
said: bright, beautiful day, summer clothes
in full bloom Come to Minneapolis" The
streets were thronged all day, especially
after the services of the morning, every one
of which was listened to by audiences
limited only by the capacity OF the
churches. There was nothing in the
numerous sermons preached worthy
of special remark. unless it
was that nearly every discourse was sad
dened by illusions to the loss the country
had just sustained in the death of Vice
President Hendricks. The several min
listers, while their texts and subjects diff
fered, preached on the general theme OF
gratitude. Fine and impressive music was
the characteristic of most of the services,
words of gratitude and thankfulness being
sent on high in song.
The most conspicuous observance of the
day was the Thanksgiving dinner, fianked
by turkey. 1t was a matter of remark that
more families this year enjoyed the tooth
some bird than ordinarily, owing to the
plenteous crop. The market was plethoric
WITH LUsTY GoBBLERs,
which, starting out at Is cents per pound,
worked down to 10 and were closed out in
many cases at cents, or cheaper. than any
of the staple meats. Elaborate dinners
were served at hotels and restaurants,
where, while turkey was present, 1t took
second place to give way to venison and the
various game birds, served with all
the skill the chefs could summon to their
aid Dinners that would have tempted a
recluse were washed down in many pri-
vate mansion with trimming fagonS of
champagne, to say nothing of the insidious
egg-nog, while the drinkeries drove a
thriving trade in that arch enemy OF man
kind, Tom and Jerry. 1t was remarkable
fact. however, that while tuns and butts of
plain and fancy drinks were consumed, the
streets were as orderly as in Staid New
England town, but for the throngs of peo-
pie who took advantage of the fine weather
for stroll.
Withal it was a model day. Thanks
We're given and the poor were not forgotten.
The several eleemosynary institutions were
we'll cared for by the ladies in charge, and
many a poor family had cause to bless the
Lord that Thanksgiving day came at least
once year.

City Making the Preparations.
Charles j. Van Depoele, the inventor of
the system of transmission of power which
bears his name, arrived in the city yester-
day and has taken charge of the arrange
ments for the trial of electricity on the
motor line. MI. Van DepOele said last
evening to a GLOBE reporter at the Clark
House:
81 think we shall be ready for the trial
by the 1st of December. The principal
thing to do now is to get the overhead wire
into position. The poles and the wires
crossing the street. which are to support it,
are all ready, but the work will progress
rather slowly, as we can occupy the track,
because of the running of trains, only be-
tween midnight and 6 o'clock in the morn
ing. Our preparations will be for tempo
rary and not permanent use. Ii
the use of electricity gives satisfaction
and we are given a contract. we shall do
away with the overhead wire, and place it
in conduit under ground in the center of
the track. The rails should also be con-
nected by copper plates in order to form
perfect and uninterrupted conductor. /
think. however that by tightening the
tish-plateS which now fasten the rails to-
gether that it will not be necessary to cop
per-plate them. If we are compelled to do
so. however, it will occasion some little
delay. So people think that the rails will
be charged with electricity, and likely to
give pedestrians and horses severe shocks,
do they? Well tell them that there isn't
the slightest danger of this. You see we
use the rails only to return the electric cur
rent to the generator. The currents are of
the same nature. If one was negative and
the other positive their would be cause for
this complaint, but as it is, there is not any
possibility Of its shocking persons. You
can put your hands on the rails and hardly
feel the electricity"

In the recent talk to the Yale Kent club
Prof. Sumner said that no state should be
compelled to educate the children of it's citi-
zens. "And no man should marry" he
continued. ''unless he can afford to support
and educate his possible children. People
talk about the rights Of the parent and the
duty of the child, but tell you that man
who is the cause of his child's existence
owes the child everything instead of being
owed everything by the child. Birth is a
dire misfortune for many children, and
their parents cannot do enough for them in
return for the inherited diseases and misfor-
tunes which they bestow upon them. One
of these duties is education, and no man
should marry who cannot carry this out"
