Tho .IiItad Gnn,Ier.

At the molting time in February an old
gander, belonging to the flock Of a west
side farmer, found himself out in the cold,
none of the female members of the flock
seeming to have taken fancy to him.
To all appearances his gaudership was
just as attractive in appearance, and no
older than many of the others, who Sc
cured agreeable matches, For few days
after st. Valentines day this gandor
seemed in low spirits, was compelled to
keep away from the balance Of his flock
by his more fortunate mates, and moped
and drooped around in the fence corners,
Finally he conceived wonderful friend
ship for the owner of the farm, man
past the middle age, and since then has
been his constant companion. No
sooner does tho gentleman appear
in the morning to do his chores
about the house and farm than
the gander greets him with outspread
wings. and series of squawks, which
show his pleasure. From then on the
gander is the mans constant companion
until nightfall and IL is by the closest
watch that it is kept from going into the
house and eating and sleeping with him.
Not only is this attachment Of the Rander
manifested at tho home place. but it fol-
lows the master all over the noighbor-
hood. When the gentleman comes to the
city, which Is generally two or three
times week, the goose has to be shut up
in the barn to prevent 1t following him
to town. This attachment between tho
man and the fowl is hard to understand,
though it is evidently case of love trans
fcrred from the feathered to the biped
race.-Lafdyette Cal.

The Aldermen and the Statue.

AZ want to know If it is wrote in French

with the renowned Jerry Hartigan, rep
resents tho second district in the board of
aldermen, yesterday.
1T is written in pure English" re-
Piled the natty president Of the board,
''and will read it," he continued.
The venerable clerk had staggered
through the opening of a resolution laud.
ing the press Of the city and advocating
contributions to the Bartholdi pedestal
fund, but the pothooks were too many for
him and he came to a full stop, and the
president came to his aid, very much to
the relief of Capt. Twomey.
Hes Just a daisyW enthusiastically
exclaimed the rotund representative of
the second as the president ratified OFF the
resolution.
'I'll bet he writ it," said Jerry.
Right you air" replied Alderman
Walsh.
The resolution was unanimously
adopted, both of the aldermen from tho
second concurring smilingly. Subse'

The other evening during the per-
formance of the spectacle of the Zulu war
at Cookies circus in Liverpool, Mr.. Cottle,
who impersouates Lieut.. Melville, had u
hand -to.hand combat with Zulu chief,
tho combat lasting for some minutes, This
encounter was too realistic for one OF tho
spectators, for, after watching the combat
for a time with interest and suppressed
excitement, the man, evidently thinking
that his countryman was being over
powered by his savage foe, leaped into
the arena and at once grappled with the
Zulu chief. The onslaught was so sudden
and so vigorous that the Zulu chief was
quite taken aback, and before his asSail-
ant could be drawn of the unfortunate
impersonator of the savage chief had re-
ceived somewhat severe pummeling,
one of the blows leaving n momento in
the shape of not very presentable or Or

Savage and A. II. Cathcart were named to
draw appropriate resolutions, and after a
conference they reported the following,
which was adopted:

therefore, be IL

American citizens, born under the British

citizen, and offer the surviving family of
the deceased our sincere coincidence
a long time was devoted to discussing
the ACCESSIBILITY of joining in the memorial
parade on Saturday, there being an almost
unanimous sentiment in favor of it. 1t
was finally decided to do this. provided a
sufficient number of former British sub
Jects will participate to make a creditable
showing. 1t was suggested that suitable
badges be worn, and that the American and
British flags, properly draped. be carried.
As there were likely 70 be some matters of
expense in this connection, a committee on

TO PROTECT THE RETAILERS.
a Movement on Foot for an Organ

About fifty gentlemen, representing a
half dozen or more branches of business.
meG in the small dining-room of the Ryan
hotel last evening, in response to a call for
a meeting of the retailers of the city. a.
NJ. Peabody called the meeting to order.
and stated its object to be the discussion of
protective organization of some kind. which
might be to the retailers of all classes what
the jObbers' and grocers' unions are to the
respective classes of dealers composing
them. He said, in opening the meeting,
that there was need of an organi-
zation for protection against poor cred
itOrS, and for sort of bureau
of information as to the various
and constantly changing customers with
whom each has to deal. He believed such
an organization would be benefit in many
ways. There was a pretty general express
sion from those present on the matter,
nearly all who spoke being favorably in
clined to the scheme. Among other details
which were discussed was the idea of hay
ing a secretary and an attorney regularly
employed, who might look after collections
and in case Of the death of a creditor see
that claims were properly presented to the
executor for settlement An hour was
taken up in the discussion, at the close of
which A. II. Peabody was made a COM
mittee of one TO investigate the matter
thoroughly, learn the sentiment of the re-
tailers as far as possible, report some plan
Of organization and report a constitution
and bylaws at future meeting.

COMMISSIONERS PLEASED
with the Working of the Grain Law
10 Date.

Railroad Commissioners Baker and Muir
dock arrived in st. Paul last night having
been home over Sunday. When asked if
they were satisfied with the working of the
new grain law. so far as heard from, they
said they were. They had reports from
Duluth that everything was going very
smoothly, and had heard no complaints
from any quarter,
When asked as to the fact that the Min
neapolis elevators had not taken out their
licenses, necessary 10 make them public
warehouses, Mr.. Murdoch said he supposed
it was because there was no immediate call
for il, as most of their business would be
with the old wheat for some days vet.
I'VE do not understand" said he, s'that
there are any differences between Minneapo-
lis elevator men and the commission. AT our
last conference with them we came to AN
understanding that was satisfactory all
around. l expect they will take out the
licenses before the new crop comes i'm.
This applies to all the principal elevator
men thereto every one, l think, that wants
to do legitimate business"
Gen. Baker said there was little question
that the Minneapolis men would take out
the necessary papers. Ii would be almost
a necessity for them TO do this, as Duluth
has so largely done it. 1t would not pay
them to do private business, as it would
drive men that have been accustomed TO
ship TO Minneapolis to send their grain to
Duluth. He anticipated, however, that the
Minneapolis men had no intention of stand
ing out from the benefits of the law.

TIE LATE BURGLARIEs
The Theme Of General Common
and Speculation.

n
and Speculation.
All day yesterday the gay and festive
burglar. whose daring exploits ON Saturday
and Sunday nights have created such a
Juror in st. Paul, was the general them e
of conversation. The extreme nerve of
the man and the boldness of his
work made it matter of especial
comment. It is matter of
much conjecture whether or not the mis-
chief maker, content with what he had
achieved, had packed his grip and departed
where the woOdbine twineth or whether or
not he devoted his leisure time yesterday
afternoon to looking for fresh fields and
pastures new, in which to operate.
The majority seemed much inclined
to take the latter view of the
question and some went SO far as to
venture an opinion as to who would be the
next man to look down the barrel of his
revolver and SILVER while he scooped what
collateral there might be left lying loosely
around. This general feeling of insecurity
will doubtless lessen the game of the
man with the iron cheek and the black
mask. as the jewelry which will be
left within easy reach in any house, liable
to be favored with call, will be compare
lively lgnJ.
The fact of having professional in the
city, without any clue to his identity,
proved matter of no little annoyance to
the police yesterday. The morning relief,
when sent out, received explicit instruc-
tiOns to be on the lookout, but failed dur
ing the day to secure a glimpse of any man
that answered the description Of
THE UNKNOWN.
Acting Chief Bresett was constantly on
the STIR He had his weather eye lifted for
his man, and early in the day sighted
one man who nearly correspondent in
size to Mr.. Merriam's caller. The man
was walked to the city hall trembling like
an aspen leaf, but shortly proved his limo
cence and was allowed to go. Chief De-
tective John J. O'COnnor kept floating
around the city noiselessly, saying very lit
tie, but keeping up a big thinking. The
remainder Of the detective force paced the
pensive pave, and with one hand on the
butt of their revolver and the other Topped
in their vest pocket, hoped in vain for one
glimpse of their prey. Few facts in the
burglaries were brought to light yesterday
not given in yesterday mornings GLOBE,
and up to an early hour this morning no
trace of the burglar had been found.
