PRETTY MAY OGBURN.
The Minneapolis Beauty Who Played the
Heroine in Recent Cincinnati
Romance.
She Conquered the Affections Of Maker
of Carriages Who Was a Mil
Gonaire,
And Accompanies Him Through Eu-
rope, Remaining With Him Until
Death Separated Them.
His Acknowledgment on Scotch Soil
Makes Her His Lawful Widow
and HeiresS.

A pretty Minneapolis girl has once more
come to the front, but under very romantic
circumstances and with name by which
her best friends should never have recog-
nized her. One year ago at this time
May Ogburn was one of the handsomest
of Minneapolis maidens. Just II years
of age, of a rich, ripe beauty of
face and figure that could not fail to attract
attention, many eyes were turned to gaze
after her as she passed along the streets.
Along in the winter Miss Ogburn went
East on visit to friends and her Minneap-
oils acquaintance lost sight of her en-
tirely. Since then great changes have
been wrought and it is possible that the
whilom Minneapolis maiden may soon re-
turn to the city clad in purple and fine linen,
WEARING DIAMONDS
and introducing herself as the widow of
Mr.. Arthur Gainsford, the late millionaire
carriagemaker of Cincinnati. If she comes
to Minneapolis she will be received with
open arms by her family, her parents an
aged couple and eminently respectable, re-
siding at 500 Washington avenue. A GLOBE
reporter called there yesterday afternoon
and by them was given the interesting story
of her life. They now live in the hope of
seeing their daughter upon her return, hay
ing heard from her in Italy and expecting
her return constantly.
The Cincinnati Enquirer tells the Gin
cinnati portion or the story in the follow
ing language, part of which is corrected be-

United States Crops.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.-The crop re-
port Of the department of agricultural says
the present crop of corn is the first full
average in rate of good yield since 1880,
which was the last of a series of six full
crops of 20 to % bushels per acre. The
present crop, grown On an area OF about
81. 600, 600 acres, is slightly above an aver
age for period of ten years, or 26A BUSH
els per acre. Tine highest rate of yield is
36L bushels in Nebraska and Ohio. The
three corn-growing states which produce
four-tenths of the entire crop, Illinois, Iowa
and Missouri, each averages several bushels
per acre less than in the census year-Illi-
nois 81, Iowa 80, Missouri so. Utah, aver
age. SO: Massachusetts,, Connecticut and
Colorado, 80; New Hampshire and Rhode
Island, "a; Michigan, SO; Wisconsin 80. and
Kansas 81. The Southern states make an
average yield. The quality of corn is very
good in the East and South. medium in the
central parts of the West, and somewhat
less in the northern border from Michigan
to Dakota. The cetton crop is large. The
potato crop is smaller than that Of 1884. in
consequence of injury from rot, which has
reduced the New York crop nearly one
third. There is much complaint of rot in
Wisconsin and Iowa, and in some counties
of Michigan. Illinois and Minnesota. The
reported yield of hay per acre averages X
tons and indicates crop of over Al, 900, GOO
tons, nearly as large as that of last year.
The buckwheat crop will be large. The
average yield exceeds four bushels per acre.

NIodjeska as Mary stuart.

1t has been said by critic that in all her
repertoire there is not play better suited
to Nine. Modjeska's special talent than
Mary Stuart" yet, again, other critics are
eontradisposed in opinion. However, she
is all that an ordinary Minneapolis audience
could desire. The audience which listened
to her at the Grand last evening was much
larger than on the preceding evening. This
at heart testifies to the popular esteem in
which the historical tragedy is held in this
city, and among the better and more criti-
cal class, too, for it was from such that the
audience of last evening was composed.
Sad, melancholy, gentle and tender she
shifted with fateful circumstances to the
cold, stern, proud and relentless, and when
the climax in the last act was reached her
real dramatic power was felt by every au-
ditor. Mary Stuart" was played here by
Margaret Mather year or more ago, and
since then by Nine. Ristori but compari-
sons are odious. Modjeska's support is good
if not better than the average, and it is safe
to say that Mary Shaw was more than an
acceptable Elizabeth. This evening LAS

The Latest Reliable Lie.

PORTLAND. Me-. Nov. 10.-About
fourteen months ago Joseph Dyer, aged 20
years, of Cape Elizabeth was thrown from
wagon and was picked up dead, as sup
posed. The body was inferred in Ever
green cemetery. A short time ago his par
ents were warned that he was alive and well
and would soon be home. The coffin was
exhumed, and when it was about being
opened at the Dyer residence, young Dyer
walked into the house and said when he
saw what was being done, Don't open it.
for here I am" His appearance, as may
well be supposed, caused an exciting scene.
1t is supposed that medical students dug up
the body for the purpose of dissection,
found Dyer alive and treated him until he
thoroughly recovered. The young man re-
members nothing of what took place while
in the doctors hands.

SchiIIerss Birthday.

One hundred and twenty-five years ago
yesterday Friedrich Schiller, the great Ger
man poet and dramatist, was born. The
anniversary Of the event was duly cele.
brated last night by the Harmonic Dramatic
society. A large audience assembled at the
hall and witnessed the production of two of
Schillers great works, Nv ilhelm Telf' and
Mary Stuart" By singular coincidence
the latter drama was produced at the Grand
opera also. The first act of each of these
was given by the Harmonic, with all of the
accessories Of good music. scenery and cos
tunes. The several parts were exceed
ingly well cast, and many professionals
might have profted by them. In fact, some
of the professionals at the Grand showed
less appreciation of the drama.

a ROId Robbery.

Gilmore's band arrived in the city about
1 o'clock yesterday morning, for the pur-
pose Of taking the Minneapolis & St. Louis
train for Waterloo. About forty of the
members went to the st. James hotel, and
the task of assigning them to rooms en-
gagged the entire attention of the night clerk
and bell-boys. Someone took advantage of
this state of affairs, and carried off a trunk
belonging to j. E. Murphy, travelling man
who lives at Austin, which stood in the
hall leading to the ladies' entrance. The
trunk was found by the police yesterday at
the hay market, it having been broken open
and the larger part of its contents carried
off. Mr.. Murphy says he has lost three
suits of clothes and some underwear, his
loss amounting to over 800.
