A Fire at Midnight.

At 1880 last night fire was discovered
by Office Durene in the rear portion of the
building on the corner of Bradley and Grove
streets, occupied by James Ambruster as
flour, feed and grocery store. When dis
covered the fire was under a large tank of
oil. In the immediate neighbOrhood were
several barrels of Oil, and it is thought the
origin was incendiary. The oil ran in differ
ent directions and threatened the adjoining
residence, but was finally confined to the
back part of the store, a one-story frame.
Mr.. Ambruster claimed an insurance Of
So, 900 on his stock, which he valued at
So, 900. The building was owned by Charles
Lindeke, and he gave his insurance as
81, 900. Until day OF so ago Lindeke was
senior of the firm of Lindeke & Ambruster,
but recently the latter purchased his inter-
est. The damage is placed at about $500.
Captain Bunnell of Engine Company No. 4
had narrow escape. He was upon the
roof, slipped and rolled down, but FORUM
ately caught against ladder placed
against the building.

was occupied in considering the partial re-
port of the committee on the revision of the
bylaws. The report was not complete, and
the board, after considering it rule by rule.
adopted it with some notifications, and re-
ferred it back to the committee to be COM
pleted.
Mr.. Curtis reported in regard to
the Sibley school building that
the ground under, and all around
the building was wet, and the walls were
water-sOaked. He thought something
ought to be done about it, and the matter
was referred to the committee on real estate,
with power to act.

A Court EnisOde.

A Minneapolis lawyer received setback
in the municipal court yesterday. He APP
peared as counsel for John Prendergast,
who was arrested for selling glandered
horse. When the case was called the COM
plant was found to be technically illegal,
so Prendergast was practically free. Before
he left the courtroom, however, he was re-
arrested by Bailiff ClOuse, who acted on the
instructions of the assistant county attorney.
The legal light from Minneapolis became
very indignant and asked the bailiff to show
his authority for arresting Pendergast.
''This is my authority" said the bailiff,
as he threw open his coat and displayed
his star.
The lawyer was still dissatisfied, and
raised such commotion that the bailitf
finally grabbed him by the arm and showed
him toward the door and told him that he
would ''fire him out of the roOm' if he had
anything more to say. The court was sit
ting at the time and he could complain to
the judge if he had grievance. The Min
neapolis man said no more. Meanwhile
new complaint had BEEN made out and
served on Pendergast, who was afterward
allowed to go out on bail.

The Water Board.

At meeting of the water board yester-
day afternoon bills for the past month
amounting to 81. 941.93 were allowed. The
board authorized Mr.. Folsom to have the
lines of right of way, from Fauquier street
to Lake Phalen, staked out to prevent
trespassing. A communication said that at
the Lafayette avenue, Mississippi street
and Dale street crossings of the Northern
Pacific railway the water pipes will have to
be lowered to suit the grade. The work
will be done at the expense of the railway
company. The contract for piling on Grove
street, between KittsOn and Seventh streets,
was awarded to George W. Sherwood 6,
Co., at 25 cents per lineal foot and SO cents
per 1000 feet for the lumber used, the
latter sum also to include bolts. etc. The
board then adjourned

Chamber eff Commerce.

The board of directors of the chamber of
commerce held a regular meeting yesterday
morning, but it transacted little business of
G. JudSOn, secretary of the State Agricul-
tUlral society, requesting that committee
Of the chamber be appointed to confer with
that society in regard to the fair. The sec
rotary was instructed to communicate with
Mr.. Judson and inform him that such com
mittee had been appointed.
Mr.. Fairchild's resolution in regard to
grading the, leYee in West ST. Paul was
taken up. Mr. Murray suggested that it
better be laid over, inasmuch as nothing
should be done about it till the engineer had
the maps out. That officer had been en-
gagged having surveys made, and would soon
have the maps ready.
Mr.. McClung said that there seemed to
be sort ofsseheme to have all matters of
this kind delayed through the pretense that
the engineer was not ready and could not
be ready. This was a matter that should
be attended to immediately.
Mr.. Fairchild explained the necessity of
doing something about the matter and how
the levee could and should be built.
Mr.. Oppenheim gave brief statement of
the situation of affairs which was calculated
to show there was no scheme, but that the
levee improvement was working along all
right, and that there was no job in it. FL
nally, on motion of Mr.. Murray, the matter
was referred to special committee of
three, consisting of Mr.. Fairchild, chair
man, Mr.. McClung and Mr.. 0ppenheim,
after which tie board adjourned.

Correspondence from Ireland.

Mr.. NJ. Haggerty, well-known in various
sections of this state as an attorney, a
teacher and politician, will leave on Thurs
day for Ireland, his native country, in
search of new material for his book entitled
Wrongs of Ireland. Mr.. Haggerty is one
of the most patriotic of his race, educated
thoroughly and of no mean ability as
writer. He was educated in France, where
he was careful student of Latin, Greek
and Hebrew, and afterward travelled widely
in France and Germany. He came to this
country in 1871. After short residence in
New York and Boston, he moved to
Minnesota early in 1872, and was
for nine years principal of the
Mendoza public school. He studied law in
this city, and took his diploma from the
Iowa state university. In 1878 he was
unanimously nominated by the Democrats
of Dakota county for probate judge, and
since then has always been prominent in
the counsels of the Democracy. At inter-
walls during the past five years he has been
a correspondent of the GLOBE, and during
his stay in Ireland he will contribute to its
columns on topics of interest from his ma
tive land. He will also enlighten his cOun
trymen as to American government and in
situations as best he may. He will be in
Ireland several months

A minister well known by name through
out the land, who has one Of the best
equipped houses of worship, was showing a
friend, not long since, through its various
rooms, when they came to the kitchen,
which was connected by speaking tube
with the pastors study. On the wall was
printed in large letters. 1.-The Lord will
provide" while in smaller letters ON the
same wall near the mouthpiece OF the
tube was the direction ''Blow and wait for
an answer" The visitor naturally asked
if the two inscriptions had any particular
connection with one another; and it is
hardly necessary to say that change was
soon made in the lettering.

suBLIMEsT IDEA OF ALL.

Mortal man could never guess it, nor
''would heart Of man once think it," Hur-
ny up and tell you what it is? Why, dear
angel, what's the use of telling you when
you already know? Mayhap some bear
that is to say some man-may run his eye
adown this column. If so, for him shall
the disclosure be made. Incline your ears
for this it is
Dismembered photography!
Aha! You may well be startled for
when woman coolly Though only photo
graphically slices off an ear, amputates a
hand or an arm, cuts off her nose or disfg-
ures herself in any other way that a cold
malignity prompts, there's no telling what
she may do to you in your time of sleep and
fancied security.
No, men and brethren, this is no delusion
of a mind diseased. 1t is a hard, merciless,
memorable, tangible, visible, palpable, every
day, right-befOre Our-eyes fact. The Wo-
man of the passing moment has actually
taken to the kind of surgery that is here
described as dismembered photography.
What on earth does that mean? Easily
told. Instead of squandering her money
for the delusive and perishable caramel or
throwing it away on hOrse-car excursions
she filings it to her photographer for pic
lures of an ear, for instance. Don't believe
it? You would like to know how mere
ear could be photographed? Ear! 'Ear!

with slit in it through which her ear is
thrust, and in that position photographed.
The same scheme is worked in the matter
of noses, Sometimes the fancy of the pho
tographed runs to foot and ankle; again it
merely covers the back of the head: often
est however, we find hand or combna-
ton of hand and arm, especially if they
chance to be shapely; but it is a rare thing
in dsmembered photography that an identi-
fable feature is reproduced. You see, the
owner Of these fragments has faith in their
abstract beauty, and if there's anything that
she just now rejoices in it is to walk around
among her acquaintance and find on their
library tables, or in their albums, her own
ears or nose, or foot, or backhair, OF cheek
or hand. She has even been known to send
around her chin, but, somehow, that prom
ontory does not often seem to stick out as
attractively as it ought to. She never parts
with her tongue.
