Special to the Globe.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, April 25.-A re-
port was current to-day that the Bell COM
pany is dissatisfied with the action of the
Central Union and will send
representative to indianapolis with adefin-
lite propOposition looking to a resumption
of the use of Bell instruments. This repre-
sentative comes direct from Mr.. Bell, who
is reported as having said that the exchange
could and would be run in this city at the
lawful rate. In the meantime the Bell CON-
pany already has representative in the city
in the person of w. TOmkins of Boston.
He Is here watching the progress of
affairs and proposes to sue out an mjunc-
ton against the first company that eStab-
fishes itself in the city for the use of any
other than the Bell instrument. 1t APP
pears that the Central union hopes to be
permitted to continue in operation until
some new company is established and
has been enjoined and tiled up" when
the Central Union and the Bell will together
work the repeal of the present telephone
law. The company now being organized to
operate the Cushman service in the city and

= FORLORN HOPE.

The Republicans of st. Paul have aban-
dOned all hope of success in carrying city
election, and have agreed to virtually dis
band their organization and allow a con-
test, if one is made TO be made by the In
dependent candidates against the regular
Democratic nominees. a hundred or SO of
the personal friends and admirers of Maj.
NEwSoN met in Seventh street hall Satur-
day evening and placed that amiable gentle
man in nomination as candidate for city
treasurer on a so-called workingman's
ticket. Exactly why the genial major
should be dubbed the wOrkingman'S candi-
date is not so apparent, unless it is be-
cause it will be necessary for him TO take
off his coat and work like beaver for the
next ten days, if he makes any Roadway
against Mr.. REFS, the popular candidate on
the Democratic ticket The cut and dried
program is for the Republican convention,
called to meet next Tuesday, to go through
the form of giving an Endorsement to the
majors candidacy and then disband. 1t is
not calculated that the Republicans will
give Maj. NEwSoN any substantial support
beyond a paper Endorsement. Under the
impression that he may have some influence
with some wOrBingmen, their hope is to
use him and his following as catspaws to
pull Republican chestnuts out of the fire
in the aldermanic districts. That is about
She size of the Republican policy, so far as
a diSOrganized party can be said to have a
policy.

Mosquitoes are mighty bad In Montana, -
chimed i'm n Wisconsin man. 'sThey are a
positive drawback 70 the territory. OF course
the Montana people don't say much about IL,
for that's one marked popularity of these
territorial people that they never admit TO an
outsider any OF the bad features or their par
ticular locality. Now California people never
say boob about earthquakes, although the
shocks OF such disturbances are often felt
there. So IL is with the Montana people.
They never let on that there is such q thing
there as Il mosquito, but the mosquito is there
just the same.
81 was at Fort Keogh one summer not long
ago when an explosion occurred I'm the boiler,
which blew IL some distance from the fort into
swamp. The men started after IL. When
they got down there the rosquitos were SO
thick that it was found impossible 20 work.
The men got inside the boiler, aud the mos
quitoes punched their stingers right through
the plated iron. The men clinched the bills
on the inside and kept on clinchlng them
until hundreds and hundreds of mosquitoes
were fastened TO the boiler. The men built a
fire inside of the boiler TO scare OF the other
mosquitoes, and the latter started 10 fly away.
'Of course those that were fastened tried 70
fly with the rest, and actually carried the
heavy boiibr and The men out OF the swamp
and on TO the dry land. After that it was nc
trick to haul the boiler into the fort. How
did they get rid of the mosquitoes bills? Why,
they just filed them OF close and left them
there.
Montana people would deny that such q
thing ever took place in the territory, but
they are prejudiced and will not listen to any
thing that does not place the territory in the
most favorable light"

APPEAL FROM COLoRED FoLKs

APPEAL FROM COLORED FOLKS.
The pastor of the cOlored Baptist church
in this city makes an appeal through the
columns of the GLOBE. this morning. to the
people of ST. Paul for aid in erecting a
new church building for the accommodation
of his congregation. The appeal is for a
worthy object, and will doubtless meet
with hearty response from our generous
hearted citizens. There are comparatively
few colored people in this city. and they
are not able Of themselves to erect church
building of the style to correspond with the
general church architecture of the city. If
building of this kind is erected, it ought
to be one that would be creditable in APP
pearance. Although there are not many of
them, the colored people of st. Paul have
been remarkably well behaved in their de-
pertinent, and make useful class of our
population. They deserve encouragement
from their white brethren, and this is good
opportunity to give it to them in substan-
tial way.

PRESIDENTIAL BACKBONE,


President CLEVELAND has had another
opportunity to display his backbone, and he
did it in admirable style. Our Washington
special to-day tells of the rebuff he gave a
lady interviewer who attempted to find out
something definite about the rumored mat
rimonial engagement of his eXcellency A
man with good nerve could sit down on
Mr.. EDMUNDS and his inquisitiye commit
tee, or could slam the doors of the White
house in the face of the newspaper cores
pOndents who came to pry into his
private matters. but it takes a states
man with an extraordinary backbone to
squelch the female interviewer. AS rule
the American statesman always yields to
the Establishments of a pretty little woman,
who deliberately sets to work to get into
confidence. So well is the fact understood
in connection with public life in Washing
ton that an organized corps of female cor
respondents is always on hand as a reserve
force to be ordered into action when all
other agencies for acquiring news have
failed. The i'll luck which had attended
the numerous regular newspaper
correspondents, who had been en-
deavoring to get something authentic
concerning the presidents contem-
plated marriage made it necessary to order
out the reserve. No doubt the handsomest
and brightest member of the corps was
selected for the delicate enterprise. The
result is detailed in the GLOBES
Washington special. The president not
only completely squelched the auda-
cious little woman by giving her piece
of his mind concerning the improperly of
her visit, but he gave her some advice that
ought to be of great value to her. 1t is alb
solutely nObody's business but his own
whether the president gets married or
not. If the young lady whose name has
been associated with that of Mr.. CLEvE-
LAND is woman of refined senSibilities, as
she doubtless is, it must be exceedingly
moKlfying to her to have her name hawked
about in the shameful manner that has
been done. If the president will now
provide himself with good hickory club
and knock down the next interviewer who
breaches the subject of his matrimonial
engagement the whole country will revere
him as a sound ANDY JACKSON Democrat.

superiors in the country. As the growth
of the city and its musical taste have
increased Mr.. Seibert has always
been in the lead, adding higher skill and
better music to his orchestra until now his
organization has no peer in the Northwest.
In 1881 he secured the services of the pres

Muhlenbruch, who during the season of
1880 played first violin in Theodore Thomas
orchestra. Mr.. Muhlenbruch is native of
Hamburger and has received his training
