POLICE D0INGS.

The saloon, No. 104 West Seventh street,
was the scene of quite lively mill Yesterday
morning, the combatants being Gus Hal
berg, proprietor of the joint, and Chris Mar
tin, laboring man. They got into dispute
as to which was the best man and decided to
have it out. A ring was formed in the rear
end of the saloon and both men stripped to
the waist They went at it in regular bull
dog fashion, and while no science was shown
some heavy blows were exchanged and the
claret flowed freely. Officer SchweitZer was
informed of the affair, and when he doomed
up the fight was progressing fierce
", both men being covered with
blood and their shirts were hanging in shreds.
They were waltzed before the court aud it
cost them fifteen bills each to get out Of the
scrape. In the afternoon Mayor O'Brien re-
voked Halbergs saloon license.
Mayor O'Brien on yesterday also revoked
East Seventh street. 1t was shown that
Benson had a room with bed in it which he
had rented for purposes of prostitution, n
quartet of disreputables having been yanked
from the place last Wednesday.
Rudolph Smith was arrested yester day for
on Dayton's bluff. Both men were building
a house, and Rudolph simply helped himself
to his neighbours pile. He was before Judge
Burr in the afternoon and it cost him $50
fine.

A GRUB FOUNDRY CRANK.
Pat Stanley is Given the Rush for Spelling
the ROarders' Supper

the B0arderS' supper.
Pat Stanley glories in the distinction of
being gentlemanly duffer. He wont work
himself, and in order to make both ends
meet his wife is compelled to run a grub
foundry. Once in a while Patrick goes on a
bender, and then he whoops 1t up and makes
things lively for the boarders. He went
home the other night, and as things didn't
suit him he commenced to get away with the
supper by throwing it around the room. He
was given ride in the hoo-doo wagon and
yesterday he was sent to the quay for thirty
days. He will also give $3.50 bonds to keep
the peace.
John Morris secured job the other day,
and his employer gave him an order to pro-
cure pair of shoes. After
securing the later he skipped, where
upou the boss had him yanked
on the charge Of larceny. The court said the
charge was little thin to laundry and he
was discharged.
George Doherty and George Andrews en-
gagged in n private little mill on "Wednesday
night, and they were getting in their lace
ticks when copper appeared and gave them
the grand rush. They were up on the charge
of larceny and the hearing was continued
until to-day.
George Ryan was up on the charge of
stealing an overcoat and the examination
was continued until to-day Adam CAN'T
was on toot, and when the copper appeared
he was singing ''wait till the bull dog dies,
ETC." The latter said he didn't have time to
tarry, so Adam went along and he will now
languish in the bastie for fifteen days.
George Walsh, scientific lunch fiend who
has pre-empted and worked more routes
than any man in town, went out for thirty
days, and the trio of small boys who broke
into Rice street shop and stole some pocket
knives were sentenced to the reform school,
sentence being suspended during good be-

GOOD FRIDAY.
How It is Observed by the Faithful.

How 1t is Observed by the Faithful.
This day has been particularly marked
from the earliest period of Christianity as a
day of mourning and of solemn ritual OBJ
servances, but these services were not
always the same. Down to the third or
fourth century it was usually called the Pass
over, the name by which Tertullian calls it,
because then Christ the Passover was slain.
In celebrating this day in the Catholic
churches the bishop enters the chancel SINH
Iarly habited as he was al the Tenebre save
that he has laid aside his ring. He gives
no blessing, but goes to kneal in front
OF the altar The celebrant kneels at his
left. They pray in secret. Two acolytes
spread single cloth upon the altar, the
bishop ascends his chair, where he sits to
read. The celebrant goes to the altar which
he kisses, then to his seat where he reads.
A chaunter sings a lesson from the prophesy
of Hosea, in which the Lord invites his peo-
pie to repentance and mercy. The sub-dea-
con lays aside his chasuble according
to the ancient custom, but resumes it when
he has concluded. The tract is composed of
several passages prophetic OF the passion.
Three chaunters then come habited as dea-
cons but without dalmatics to sing the his
PRAYERS FOR ALL CLASSES AND PERSONS.
This being the anniversary of the great
day of expiration, when Chris, laid down his
life for all mankind, the church commands
her ministers at her affairs 10 beseech the
Lord to be merciful to all 1ntercession is
made for all orders and degrees also to be-
seech the error of disease and famine to
entreat the liberation of captives, and for
vhr ctv i'll OH
tending her view to the poor pagans who sit
in darkness and in the shadow of death, she
anxiously duplicates that they, too, may
serve the only true and living God, Jesus
Christ
ADoRATIoN OF CHRIST CRUCIFIED-vENERA-
TIoN OF THE CROSS.
The celebrant laying aside his chasuble
goes to the epistle side of the altar, where he
receives from the deacon crucifix covered
with black veil, and chants, ''Behold the
wood of the cross.' Then going to the mid
die of the platform in front of the altar the
celebrant exhibits the entire figure and ex-
poses the symbol of the Redeemer.
THE PRE-sANoTIFIED.
To show forth the death of the Lord
upon the great anniversary of his
atonement, a host consecrated on the
previous day is brought to the altar to be
there consumed.
THE WAY OF THE CROSS.
In the evening at 7:30 O'Clock in the Ca
thedral, the devotion called The Way of the
Cross will be performed. The fourteen sta
tons or principal occurrences in the passage
of the Savior from Pilates house to the
sepulchre are represented by so many paint
ings distributed along the walls. The clergy
move in procession from one to the other,
meditation on the occurrence commemorated
being read aloud, and at intervals the choir
sings verses from the "Stabat Mater" This
devotion brings home to all present the pas
sion and death OF the Savior, and is followed
with deepest reverence and attention by the
assembly.

HUNDRED-YEAR LEASES
Homes at White Bear Lake Within the
Reach of All!

Ramaley's new project for the speedy settle
ment and improvement of Ramaley Park, is
something little ahead of the ordinary real
estate transactions, and is meeting with the de-
sired success which his liberality deserves. The
lists were .started on Monday, March go, and
ninety-ive names of good parties have already
been secured for lots, on his n w plan, seventy
Of which have been from this city, fifteen from
White Bear and ter from Minneapolis and Still
water. 1t Is now thought that the whole number
of 200, which is required can be had in at least
ten days more. The opportunity of securing
desirable lot, 5Ox150 feet for a home, or as an
invesim ent, for ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS, on easy
payments; and Sat an established summer resort,
which can be reached in twenty minutes, at a
cost of 15c, is something that the knowing ones
do not intend to let pass, especially, when there
is an equal chance for all to get lot which is
worth now, from three to five hundred dollars,
and at which prices can be shown was realized
last season, and costly buildings erected thereon
Mr.. Ramaley wishes it TO be distinctly under
stood that there will be no lots sold which are
not good and which are not worth more than
double the price here named, and he would advise
those who are now thinking of home at White
Bear la Ike, TO think quickly, this is a chance
that will not occur again. Our circulars which
explain the manner Of drawing for Cho;c of lots,
terms and conditions, be had at 142 East
10 give all inform. alton, and receive names of
those who wish to invest on this plan, or other
wise.

HOW TO USE A TELEPHONE,
The Police Receive Instructions from the Fire
Department.

The Police Receive Instructions from the Fire
Department.
Mayor O'Brien on yesterday received set
of rules from the board of fire commissioners
intended to govern the conduct of police Of
ficers in cases where they may cali on the
fire department for assistance or for the use
of the telephone. The rules are rather pecu
liar, and after their perusal the mayor refused
to submit them to the council for approval.
Among other rules is one providing that
each officer shall be provided with three
classes of tickets, to be presented in cases
where help is required, viz: For police as
sistance, a blue ticket; for the patrol wagon,
a white ticket; for doctor, red ticket. 1t
is suggested that, owing to the mistakes liza
BILE to arise from haste, emergency or color
blindness, eacn fireman and copper be put
through a regular scientific examination, so
that when the wagon is wanted they may not
get the tickets mixed and send for a doctor,
and vice versa. Then supposing man
should have milk ticket in his pocket and
give it by mistake, in that event would COW
be brought to the assistance of the copper or
the bum with the cracked head!
Another rule is that, if necessary,
the copper shall write out
his order. Here, too, the suspicion arises
that the copper may get the worst OF it, for
while hi, is around searching for pen, ink
and blotter at the dead hour of the night,
what is to become of the bold robber or bums
Unless, perhaps, the copper knock him silly
before he goes after the material. 1t is sug
gested that this might be covered by pro-
viding each copper with typewriter, which
might be strapped to his back and worked
with the foot

A True Account Of the Romantic Runaway of
Miss Mamie and Mr.. Leo.
From the New Orleans Tmes-Democrat.
The Mississippi Valley railroad depot was
the scene of quite a romantic and exciting
incident last Friday evening. Just as the {
o'clock through Memphis train was about
leaving cries of distress and calls for assist
ance were heard coming from the direction of
the rear or sleeping coach. A crowd soon
congregated and found that the cries came
from the lips of an elderly woman, who was
accompanied by d boy. She was bewaiing
the anticipated loss Of a daughter, who stood
on the front platform Of the rear coach and
whom she had seized by the arm and was
striving to drag from the train. The young
lady resisted and clasped tightly the hand
rail to prevent her mother from taking her
off the train. The bell rang and the
train started and the mother lost her
grip on the arm of her daughter. She was
however, determined that the young lady
should not leave without her and seized hold
of the platform rail. She stumbled and fell
and was dragged fully squares distance,
when the train was stopped and the woman
rescued from her perilous position The
daughter alighted from the train, but only
remained on the depot platform long enough
to ascertain that her mother had not
been injured, and then boarded the
train again, accompanied by a young
man. The mother called on the
police for help to arrest her daughter, but the
officer on duty would not interfere, as the
mother had no charge to make against
her save that she was about to elope with the
young man, who is resident Of Vicksburg,
Miss. The train again started and the
mother again attempted to seize hold Of the
car, but was prevented 10y the bystanders.
From the statements made by parties who
profess TO know it appears that
Mrs. Reeds daughter Mamie, a beauti
full and amiable girl, had fallen in
love with the young man, Leo Christmas,
some time since at McComb City, Miss,
where the young man had been in the en-
plov of the Illinois Central Railroad conpa-
ny. The parents objected to the young
man and opposed the wishes Of the young
people. Some time ago the young man went
to Vicksburg, where he purchased prop
erty and made every preparation to receive
his wife when be should have won her. All
his plans having been arranged, he came to
New Orleans about two weeks ago and held
clandestne meetings with his lady love.
Aware that they could never hope for the
mothers consent to their marriage an clopc-
ment was planned and on Friday night it
was carried into effect. BY some means or
other Mrs. Reed was informed of the ar
engagements made and long before the hour
advertised for the train TO depart she was at
the depot looking for the young people, for
she knew that they would meet at the dcpot
If they did not arrive there together. She
was not disappointed in this and as soon as
she espied her daughter sought to compel
her to go back to their home at 491 Chestnut
street How vain her efforts were is told

TIE LOSSES AND INSURANCE.
Resignation of an Abstract Clerk.

There were rumors about the county build
ings yesterday of a rupture between Abstract
Clerk Passevant and Head Clerk Nervais. A
reporter of the GLOBE called upon Mr.. Passe-
want to investigate the truth or fasity of the
reports, but that gentleman declined to say
anything further than that he knew nothing
of it. Mr.. j. o. Vervais stated that
there had been no unpleasantness between
himself and Mr.. Passevant, but that he had
resigned his position because he had
for some time been conscious that there was
q disposition to force him out. He thought
some feeling had been engendered against
him by the race for the abstract office, al
though there was an agreement between
himself and Mr.. Passevant in reference to
the work. The salaries of the attaches are
graded by the abstract clerk. and work which
has fallen to Mr.. Vervais heretofore was
taken from his desk and given to the other
clerks. He did not complain until yesterday
or the day before, when the abstract
clerk announced that all salaries would from
that time on be graded by the greatest
amount of work done daily AS it takes a
great amount of time upon some intricate
abstracts of title and as these would fall to
his share, Mr.. Veryais objected to the ar
rangemeut as unjust, AM aimed especially
at him; whereupon, without any unpleasant
words whatever, he had resigned. Mr.. Yer
vais has been in the abstract office for four
teen years.

Washington TERRITORY Horses.

On the 25th ult. DIR. Days brother left
Washington territory for st. Paul with 40
head of horses that he intends to dispose of
either here in st. Paul or in Chicago. Mr..
Day arrived here Wednesday night with his
horses in good condition. The latter he I'M
loaded at the transfer where they have re-
NAMED. This makes about six days that he
was on the way. The animals constitute a
good lot Of horses, averaging about 1000
pounds each. They make excellent and
stylish carriage horses and are useful for all
kinds of work. Mr. Day has been out in
Washington territory for over thirty-fve
years, having gone out there from West Vir-
ginia In 1850. He comes here from the
town Of Dayton, near Walla Walla, along the
Northern Pacific. This is thriving town,
and is owned pretty much entirely by Mr..
Day. He would never be taken for brother
of DR.. Day, and does not look at all like
him. He looks like good solid business
man and farmer. The sending of these
horses to the East is simply an expert
ment They are not expensive animals
to raise and can be sold very cheap. If
these sell well others will follow them, and
if everything results rs stOck-raisers hope for,
quite a large business will be very likely to
spring up between the West and East The
cheap manner in which horses can be kept
through the winter in the pastures in Wash
ington Territory gives that part of the coun-
try the advantage over the colder ATTITUDES,
so far as producing an animal at a certain
age at a certain cost. II is believed that
horses can be raised out there in Washing
ton Territory as cheap as cattle can In Mon
tana. II this is so there is no reason why
they should not be bred out there and
shipped east. This experiment that he is
now making will go great ways to settle the
matter
