FASTDRIVING,

EDITOR GLOBE: Will you be kind enough
to inform a pedestrian who is in daily
dread of being run over at the street
crossings if there is no city ordi-
nance against fast driving, or, if there is one,
why it is not enforced. There is no city in
the world so noted for reckless driving as St.
Paul, and there ought to be some protection
to people whose business requires them to
walk the streets Please answer through the
columns of your paper
St. Paul, Dec. 10. A TERRIFIED ONE.
The above communication is only one of
many similar complaints which are con-
stantly being made to the GLOBE. For
the information of those who seek it we
append copy of the city ordinance relating
to the matter of which they complain:
Article 80. Section 45, Ordi-
nances of the City of St. Paul: No driver of
any vehicle shall engage in racing with an
other or drive faster than a moderate trot
while passing in, along or through any of the
public streets of the city; and all such vehi-
cles shall keep to the right when in motion
and passing along any of such public streets,
aud shall not drive over any street crossing
faster than at n walk
Penalty for violation, fine of not less than
$40 or more than Sl00 and forfeiture of
license.
Our readers can see for themselves what
the municipal law is. We are conscious of
the fact that il is violated hundreds of times
St. Paul daily globe., 1885-12-20

day. particularly in regard to that part
which prohibits driving over street cross
ing faster than walk. 1t is due to the
kindness of Providence and the prOverblal
good luck of St. Paul people that more of
them are not killed by reckless driving. 1t
is the duty of the police to enforce the ordi-
nance and to arrest every person who
drives reoklessly or races ON the streets or
crosses a street crossing at a gait faster
than walk. 1t is also the privilegefof any
citizen to report to the police department.
any violations of this ordinance. and upon
complaint being made the police officers
will proceed to arrest and arraign the yio-
lators of the law before the municipal
court. Pedestrians have rights on the
streets which must be respected. They
have the law and the courts, and it is their
fault if they do not compel reckless drivers
to respect them. A few examples will also
have wholesome effect in inspiring respect
for the ordinance a-

REGARDING ENDEARMENTs


From time immemorial much fun has
been poked at those youths and maidens
who had reached that stage of sentimental
ity which found its expression in various
terms of fond endearment. Not infre-
quently they who are most ready in smiling
in a superior way at such evidence of affec-
ton, have at some time felt the sharp arrow
themselves. and have been equally guilty.
But even the most cynical had not hitherto
insinuated that there was anything really
opposed to the established laws OF propri-
ETY. in young man lavishing upon his
sweetheart atfectiOnate epithets, provided
she, herself, found nothing Objectionable in
them. In fact, it had been quite generally
concluded that the average young woman
would be inclined to consider the youth de-
cidedly slow whose Imagination was not
equal to inventing form of endearment ex-
pressly for her benefit. Thus, by general
acceptance. such terms as sweetness" +"
''lovey," ''honey'' and ''ducky" had become
almost classic. But now, a learned English
judge comes forward with an icOnoclastic
decision which, if observed, will reduce the
inexpIessible delights of love-making to the
prosaic level of Quaker courtship. He de-
clares it to be the sense of his court that
''ducky' is highly improper expression,
which no self-respecting young woman will
fora moment permit to be attributed to her,
while the other more ardent expressions
of Loves young dream, he decides. too, are
not entitled to the lowest place in the vo-
cabulary of sentiment. Doubtless the
''self-respecting young women will give a
contemptuous toss of their shapely heads
when they hear of the learned judges de-
cision and exclaim with one voice,
s'goosey,"

In reply to the communication of Inter-
ested Readers, who ask how the recent de-
cislon of the supreme court relating to taxes
grants to the Northern Pacific Railroad
company will bear on other lands not pat

and other territories, the GLOBE would not
undertake to express a decided opinion
until the full text Of the decision has been

why lands granted by the government to a
corporation should not occupy the same
relation as lands granted to all individual.

The man who was killed was rather
tall, bony looking man with smooth face,
and dressed in an ordinary working
suit of clothes. He looked to be 35 or 40
years old. The doctors found that the
wound had reached from about the spinal
column, around the left side of the neck to
the front, the head being nearly half seY-
cred from the body. The iugular had been
cut. The wound was rather Jagged and
rough and the man had bled to death.
