At the Grand.

Haverly's MINISTRIES, which opened a
short engagement in St. Paul last night,
are all that is claimed for them; 2tzen in the
rather grandiloquent posters. = u singing,
acting and dancing are all of tie best quail
ity, the fun is clean, and what is more un-
common, most always, or at least quite
often, real witty. The audience. which
was an enormous one for this season of the
year, thought so too, and laughed and
cackled in yociferous manner during the
entire evening. Mr.. Haverly has added
new feature to his show - the
Cragg family Of acrobats. whose perform
ance is, it is safe to say, superior to any
thing in that line ever seen here. The
same performance will be repeated this and
tomorrow evenings and tomorrow after
noon.

THE voice of Central Dakota is being Justify
lifted up against territorial division on the
18th parallel and against the whole purpose of
the Sioux Falls convention. If division of
Dakota is to be made the central part of the
territory would prefer that the Missouri
river be selected as the division line. This
plan would practically separate the distinc-
tive agricultural from the mineral and graz
ing sections, if there would be any merit in
drawing the line on that basis rather than for
geographic considerations. Great water
ways in the pasthave generally been accepted
us natural division lines between states, and
the idea may meet with some popular favor.

THE VISITATION OF LoCUsTs.


For the first time in half century, accord
ing to high agricultural authority, two kinds
of visitors are due at the same period, the
seven and the Seventeen-year lOcusts. The
simultaneous appearance of the two armies
at this time was predicted several years
ago, and the prophecy turns out to be only
too true. The destructive pests were first
heard of along the Pacific coast, where their
work of destruction has already begun.
Swarms of lOcustS have been found on
Long Island, New York, and in Brooklyn
the grassy commons give evidence Of their
presence. The circumstance that most af-
fectS the mind of the observer, says Brook
Ign paper, lis the apparent spontaneity with
which they are generated from the soil
itself, The very ground seems to be alive
with them, not in their matured condition,
as though they had come from great dis
lance, but in every stage of development,
as though their ova had been incubating In
the ground and had suddenly yielded up
the billions of insects that cover the sur
face. That those eggs should have been
lying in the soil for seventeen years, await
ing the signal for a universal resurrection,
is one of those mysterious dispensations
which bring lis little closer to the more
majestic problem of life and death. That
such is the case, however, seems to be in
disputable. Perhaps to this wonderful
phenomenon may be traced the old Greek
myth of Cecrops, the sowing of the
dragons teeth and the uprising from the
burrows of armed men. 1t requires no
great effort of the imagination to
invest these countless invaders with fierce
ness and power that are the characteristics
OF the warrior. Nothing in nature is more
reSistleSS than the onward march of the To-
Gusts; nothing more emblematic of the
scourge of war than the blighted fields and
ruined harvest, the lea1ess trees and the
blackened landscape which he resigns to
the heart-broken cultivator. Death is
busy wherever he plants his standard. The
cattle, starving for the heritage that the in
sect army has foraged upon, die by the
water courses, and faster by the shadeless
streams, to pollute the water which is left
to them and their owners, to poison the air
with their putrescence and to breed in turn
plague and pestilence to complete what
famine has begun. To us, with our rapid
system of locomotion, our granaries full
from one years end to the other, and a
practically limitless area Of arabic land, the
locust has no such terrorS as he exercised in
ancient times; as he does yet for the Boer,
the small husbandman of the Balkan PENN
sula and the poor ryot of India. 1t has
been said that the locust has taken more
lives than the sword. AS a curiosity, an
enemy vanQuished by civilization, he warns
the fancy and assumes the graces of TO-
nance. The days of his knight-errantry
are over, so far as we are concerned but
he is a very suggestive person STILL"

The body of Howell Hughes, who was
drowned in the river here Tuesday evening,
was found Wednesday near the spot where
he was first seen to go down. Much dis
satisfaction is expressed among the friends
of the public schools ON account of the re-
cent action of the board Of education in the
matter of principal and superintendent.
Presumably as measure of economy, the
board Of education on Tuesday evening de-
cided to combine the offices of principal
and superintendent, and forthwith pro-
ceeded to elect young man for that office,
at salary of 81 900. He is to have charge
of the high school and grammar schools
and general supervision Of the lower de-
partments. A lady was elected assistant
superintendent at salary of 5000, and she
will control the lower grades. President
McGaughey, who has vigorously opposed
the poor economy and impracticability of
this combination, resigned as president of
the board, amid considerable excitement.
