MINNESOTA HORSES.

Strangers visiting ST. Paul invariably ex-
press surprise at seeing so many fine horses.
Minnesota's reputation for fine horses is not
so widespread as it should be, yet it is
growing and spreading and the time is not
very far distant when it will stand as one
of the first states in the Union in it's repu-
tation for well-bred horses. There is no
section of country on the face of the earth
where the conditions for horse raising are
better than right here in Minnesota. The
climate, the water, the pasturage, every
thing is here to give bone and muscle to as
healthy breed of horses as the world ever
saw. The sale of blooded colts at Midway
yesterday, being the second experiment of the
kind in this section, was asplendid success,
and such enterprises will grow more popular
and more successful each year until Mime
sota's reputation for blooded horses will be
established and known in every part of the
world where good horse flesh is valued.

the hands of the public, and to suspend the
coinage of the silver dollars until required
again by an actual demand for them. These
certificates are to be made legal tender fol
all purposes, except in private transactions
between parties, and to be redeemable in
lawful money or in silver bullion at its mar
ket value at the option of the government.
Among the minor details are the PROPOSE
tions to make the silver half dollars of full
weight, and full legal tender notes without
diminishing the total volume Of greenbacks.
Whether congress or the president is to de-
termine when an occasion may arise for
resuming the silver dollar coinage is not
stated. 1t is probable that Gen. WARNER
will lead the movement in the next congress
to secure a suspension of silver coinage
upon the basis outlined in his publication,
and in this effort will be supported by the
administration

THE CRIMES ACT.

The most repugnant features of the Irish
crimes act. which Lord SPENCER has been
insisting upon having renewed for another
year, and which if enforced in America or
even in England would produce popular
uprising, are the following: First, the
prosecuting officers are to be empowered to
change the venue of a trial at their discre-
ton. That is to say, poor farmer or la
borer, accused of misconduct in Galway,
where his kinsfolk might have some chance
of promoting his defense, may be whisked
off to Dublin, where the whole weight of
castle authority and influence can be made
to tell against him. Secondly, in a va
riety of cases, described as especial"
the courts are to have power to reject
the regular panel and try with spe-
cial jurors, selected from among the
tools and parasites of the British govern
ment. Again, when arrested on charge
of intimidation, the prisoners are not to be
tried at all by juries, but summarily by mag
istrates who owe their appointments and
look for promotion to the crown. Finally,
in all cases, magistrates are invested with
the odious powers possessed in France by
| JUICES dinstruction, for accused persons are
/ to besubjected to preliminary secret exam
ination, in which the utmost pains are taken
| to entrap them into tocompromising admissions
There is no excuse for the English parlia-
ment to pass such an Infamous bill, for
during the last year the crown statistics
prove that Ireland has been more free from
crimes Of violence than any section of Great
Britain. If the bill should be passed the
rebuke which would follow so gross a vio-
lation of a peoples rights would surely
result in the establishment of home rule
| in Ireland

The Philadelphia and Baltimore newspa-
pers have opened war against the practice
of young girls promenading the streets at
night alone or in the company OF chance
male acquaintances. This excessive free

large proportions in the larger cities OF the
East. In Philadelphia this dangerous re-

edge of their parents. The latter give their
girls permission to go to church or to visit a
friend near by, and their confidence Is
abused. The same state of affairs is re-
ported to exist in Baltimore and other large
cities, and the newspapers are calling for a

standing near the Red Wing Stoneware
works, became frightened and ran away,
and the former was thrown violently from
the wagon. A leg was broken and he re-

his recovery is doubtful. His name could
not be ascertained. The city council has
elected George w. Humphrey sexton Of

TIE LEADER ON WHEAT.

The June agricultural report issued from
the Washington bureau yesterday makes a
rather remarkable showing of shortage in
the winter wheat crop, and more than
bears out the tenor Of the state reports and
the estimates of agricultural journals and
individual experts. The figures submitted
should be carefully studied by producers,
millers, traders and consumers. Dakota,
Minnesota and Iowa stand highest in the
list of states and territories as to acreage
and average condition of spring wheat crop.
Dakota, of course, bears the banner. If the
crop continues to thrive to maturity, and a
wet harvest doesn't intervene the North
west will reap bountifully, and an era of
good times will take the place of the gen.
eral depression that resulted from the low
prices of the last two years. So far there
has been no evidence in the Northwest of
any blight or insect visitation to menace
the abundant crop that is now rapidly de-
veloping in the direction of maturity. The

elry Nabbed.

Early last fall young lady applied at r
r. DORIS residence, 4S6 Portland avenue,
for position as nurse. Her neat and
comely appearance recommended her fol
the position and she was engaged at once.
Three days later Mrs Dorr went out one
afternoon, leaving the young nurse in
charge, and on returning found the latter
had decamped with gold watch, S75 in
cash and a number OF valuable articles.
Nothing was afterwards heard of the
woman. About the same time and by
similar means young lady stole nearly
1900 worth of jewelry and some money
| from Gen. T. L. Rosser's residence in Min
neapolis last winter while domestic at
his house. All efforts made to catch her
since have been unavailing.
| On Tuesday afternoon, however, Mrs
Dorr was walking on Seventh street and
saw young lady whom she Immediately
recognized as the missing nurse girl. After
watching where she went Mrs. Dorr notified
| the police and in an hour the unsuspecting
girl was placed behind the bars.
She was found in room IL at IS
West Seventh street, where she
has been living for short time past under
the name of Emma Hobart. A search of
her premises discovered few invaluable
articles. but among the number was gold
bracelet from which the diamonds or Jewels
had been removed. The bracelet was a tell
tale one, bearing on the inside the one word
''Rosser.''
When first placed under arrest Miss Ho-
bart denied that she was the party required.
| When identified she acknowledged the Of
fense She was arraigned in the municipal
court yesterday, and waving examination,
was held to the grand jury.
To GLOBE reporter She was talkative
on any subject except that most nearly re-
lating to herself. She is "a years old,
bright, shapely and good looking, but the
police say as sharp and cunning as fox.
| She has lived in st. Paul for the last two
years, with the exception of an occasional
visit to Chicago and Milwaukee. When
ever she went there it is alleged she prac-
ticed the nurse game, and always won
There is little doubt but she is the party
wanted for the theft from Gen. Rosser's.
At one time, she says, she was employed in
the central telephone Office in ST. Paul.
