The receipts of the bridge for the three
days of the new tender were S65. 40.
Senator Sabin was much better yester.

his improvement.
Since yesterday the lake has fallen con-

The ST. CroiX Savings and Loan associ-

George Gorham left for Portland on Sat-

Extensive preparations are being made
for the fair which begins at Music hall this
week for the benefit of the Mannerchor So

Wednesday being the Frenchmen's ma
tional holiday, will be duly observed by the
French citizens of Saltwater, of whom the
city has many, by picnic on the Somerset
road, some seven miles east of the city.
They intend to have very pleasant time.

The police should enforce the dog ordi-
nance. There are some hundreds of useless
ours running the streets with no license
tags, and rendering it unsafe for persons to
be abroad They run at horses, and there
have been several narrow escapes through
runaways caused by these snarling whelps.
Some of them are hardly worth the powder
and shot that will be required to end their
career, as some of the force may require to
empty several seven-shooters at them and
finish the job with club. Let the ours be
eXterminated.
An excellent program has been prepared
and will be rendered this evening at the
Catholic fair at the roller skating rink
There will be vocal and Instrumental music

The exhibition of useful and ornamental
articles for sale or to be disposed of by
chance, will all be in place. Many articles
of rare value and beauty are now shown.
and some of the work shown reflects the
greatest credit upon the Sisters of st. Jo-
seph and the other ladies. A beautiful oil
painting, presented from st. Paul, is worthy
of close examination, it being a fine work
of art. The ladies will endeavor to make
it pleasant for those who may attend. The
fair will extend over. the Fourth of July.

portunities and demands of applicants and
their political and personal friends are an
injury to the public by the absorption of the
time Of the president and the cabinet OFF,
GERS. There should be some system adopted
by which this outrageous interference with
the public interests should be stopped. 1t
is true that it is necessary to devote GER
tain portion of the time of the president
and the heads of departments to an investi-
cation and consideration of appointments.
But let it be done in busineSs-like way by
allowing those who are responsible for the
appointments to impart the information that
is required. For illustration, what would
be thought of a board of railway directors
who would devote their time chiefly to
considering the appointment of employees OF
every grade. And yet the president and
cabinet are nothing more or less than the
directors of the national government, and
it is expected that they should exhibit the
same business sagacity that men display in
the ordinary business concerns of everyday
life

that the discussion of this question through
the press has had damaging effect. On the
contrary, it has given the public better UNI
Outstanding of the situation than it has
heretofore had. Facts have been brought to
light which were not known, and while no
body has been harmed great deal of good

CROP REPORTS.
Splendid Prospect in the Province
OF Manitoba.

Special to the Globe.
WINNIPEG, June 21.-The Manitoba de
partment of agriculture has issued the first
bulletin of the season, based on the returns
of 500 correspondents, showing that the
weather during seeding was exceedingly
favorable. that the season is two weeks
earlier than the average and the summer
following largely increased. Total land
plowed is $40, 735 acres, compared with
"a, 915 in 1854; spring wheat acreage is
S57, 013, compared with 307, 900 in 1884;
eats acreage is ISL, 36S, com
pared with 172, 345 in 1884.
Both crops are reported to be in the most
favorable conditions in all portions of the
province. Ample rain fell during the seed
ing to give grain good start and keep-up
continuous growth. There is every indca-
ton of an early harvest. The total product
of wheat expected is 7,179,531 bushels,
leaving a surplus of 5,675, 900 bushels for
export. Other crops are reported to be in
satisfactory condition. Hay promises an
abundant yield. Live stock came through
the winter in fair condition and free of
disease. In every branch of farming the
prospects are better than any previous year
in the history of the province. The construc-
ton of branch railways during the summer
will give an additional impetus to farming
operations, and much additional land is
being broken in consequence.

The Democratic convention in Brown
county appears to have voiced the views of
Central Dakota in its denunciation of the di-
vision of the territory on the 46th parallel,
and the main object of the Sioux Falls con-
stitutional convention generally. A promi-
nent citizen of Central Dakota sheds some
light on the situation in an interview with a
GLOBE reporter. From the tone of the con-
ventions so far held, regardless of party, his
prophecy that the convention will collapse of
its own dead weight will doubtless be verified.
Whether an Injunction would have the effect
of preventing the call for the convention
being carried out in the face of the legis-

LITTLE Rock, Ark. June 21.-Serious
apprehensions of trouble with the Arapahoe
and Cheyenne Indians has been felt at the
darlington agency, Indian territory, on ac-
count OF the temporary withdrawal of troops
from the st. Reno garrison.
Advice from Darlington saws:
THE Arapahoes and Cheyennes
have been in dangerous mood for some
time, threatening the life of Agent Over
and stating that they were going to clean
out the agency and fire its buildings. Their
threats and the knowledge that they are en-
tirely able to execute them in the absence
of sufficient military force to hold them in
check have created much uneasiness here.
The arrival of a detachment of the Fifth
cavalry has, however, relieved the past fear
OF any present serious results

THE GRAND JURY ABOLISHED.

ldE OhAND 81 u LII 4 ABOLlSHED.
Nebraska has made radical reform in Its
criminal procedure, and whatever may be
said for or against the reform, its adoption
is very important step and its workings
will be watched with interest. 1t has abol-
ished the regular grand jury system and has
adopted in its place the information sys-
TEN. In a proceeding by information the
public prosecutor determines whether or not
an accused or suspected person shall be
prosecuted. The change only affects the
beginning Of the prosecution, for after the
action is begun by the prosecutor the pro-
cedure is substantially the same as under
the grand jury system. The Nebraska law
can only operate in the state courts, as the
constitution of the United States secures
to persons accused of crime in the federal
courts the right of having the charge against
them passed upon by a grand jury. The
law sweeps away a venerable institution
which has been regarded as essential to the
liberty and security of the citizen. AS to
the expediency of the reform adopted in
Nebraska there will be vast difference Of
opinion.

Guardians Very MAD.
Special to the Globe
MILWAUKEE, June 21.-The tempest in
a teapot which was started early in the
week by the refusal of three young lady
graduates Of the Milwaukee Female college
to graduate has broadened its circles until
now the whole social atmosphere is in a
state of violent agitation. The three young
ladies, Misses Paige, Parker and Griffen,
persisted in their refusal to take part in the
commencement exercises unless the exeeu-
tive committee reconsiderod what they
claimed was an unjust discrimination.
The committee did not see fit to reconsider,
and the graduating class Of 's5 was reduced
to Misses butcher and Lowry. The guar
dams of the seeding members of the class,
Capt. David Vance, W. B. Parker and Mrs.
Jennie S. Paige, united in a card giving
their side Of the story i'll contradiction to the
statements made by Prof. Farrar, principal
of the college. In this they say: 1.-The
young ladies were informed that no essays
would be read in public. The matter re-
manned in that shape until last Friday.
when
THE THREE YOUNG LADIES
were informed by one of the pupils that two
of the class had been selected to read their
essays and had been privately practicing.
They say further that when the young
ladies questioned Prof. .Farraf they were
told they were meddling in what was none
of their business. In some manner the
church has become mixed up in the squabble,
and it is now alleged that pupils who belong
to St. Paul's Episcopal church have found
in times past great difficulty in obtaining
leave of absence to assist at church fairs,
while students of the Emmanuel Presby-
terrain church have obtained the coveted
leave with God bless you for their zeal in

THE DEMENTED TRAGEDIAN.
Friendly Acts Prevent NfcCulIough's
EReappearance ON the stage.

Keappearance On tlae Stage.
Special to the Globe.
New YORK, June 21.-The non-appear-
ance of the disabled John Mccullough in a
theatrical benefit performance. wherein he
was to personate Brutus in the forum scene
of Julius Caesar" has given rise to con-
siderable gossip, much of which is mis-
taken. The tragedian is now in good
physical health, but his dementia is not in
/ the least abated, and he wanders about the
hotels and streets in aimless disquietude.
When he was asked by Plympton and
LeVick, the actors who got up
this entertainment, to take part in it,
he readily assented, for it is his mania to
reappear on the stage. There was at no
time confident expectation that he would
keep his engagement, and SO Plympton I'M
derstuded the Grafton OF Brutus. The af-
ternoon of the advertised exhibition of Nc
Cullough he renewed his promise, but
! daZedly seemed to have a notion that he
was going to play 'Riehelieu," but being
told that BrutuS was his part, he went to
his room in the Sturtevant house to study
/ the required passage. He was at his task
| when Capt. Corners, his former manager,
called on him for the purpose OF
| saving MIN lfOH lie OrQedI OF an
almost certain breakdown. So strong indeed
was the belief in his incapacity that in case
he went on the stage Plympton was to have
stood costumed in the wings to take his
place at an instant's notice. Conner did
not undertake to dissuade the actor from
his purpose, but adroitly led the converse
ton to other topics, lTed him out to din
ner, kept his mind concerned with nom
theatrical subjects, and thus got him past
the hour when, in the Star theatre, the
audience was violently Kissing the
announcement that he had not arrived.
Several mutual friends were in
the plot and they e1erted themselves to di-
vert Mccullough from his engagement. The
place of their effort was a secluded apart
lnent in the ST. James hotel, where they
succeeded in keeping him willing and UNI
suspecting captive until past midnight.
Then he casually looked at his watch with
the air of one trying to recall something
and remarked: 1T seems to me that was
to have played tonight, but maybe was
mistaken. I'll go to bed, anyhow" and
he did.
