MINNESOTA MIRACLES.

Not to be outdone by other portions of
the country which have produced alleged
miraculous faith cures, Minnesota has come
TO the front with several instances of the
kind which do credit both to the religious
fervor of her citizens and the salubrious
effects of her wonderful climate. Hardly
had the famous cure at Owatonna ceased to
be nine-days' wonder before Waseca pro-
duced wonderful example of the efficacy
of prayer, combined with restora-
tive climatic Influences in the COM
plete recovery of woman long
confined to her bed with supposedly in
durable disease. Nearly at the same time.
Charles City, Ia, just across the line. sent
word Of the wonderful cure effected in the
case of a young man of whom his friends had
already taken fond farewell. Without de-
tracing from the religious influence which
is said to have wrought these miracles, there
should be no neglect in giving due credit
to the bracing Northwestern atmosphere fol-
its part in the restoration to health. 1t
is quite likely that faith in the
health-giying properties of our wanderful
climate has had as much to do with the re.
ruperation of invalids as the ministratious
of physicians, spiritual or temporal. A

BUILDING INsP ECToR,s REPORT.

BUILDING INSP ECTOR'S REPORT.
In his published report which has Just
been issued Building Inspector JOHNSON
states that according TO the records of his
Office there were 3,349 building permits
issued during the year 1885, being an excess
of 1,006 over the preceding year issued.
and a corresponding increase over the az
gregate estimate of the cost of buildings
for the year 1884. This does not include
an estimate on the cost OF the new court
house and city hall, as no permit was taken
out for that building. The building inspector
notes that very decided improvement
has been made in the construction of foun-
datiOns for business buildings, and he ex-
presses cOngratulation that the owners of
these buildings have awakened to a realiZa-
ton of the Importance of constructing sub
stantial foundations as well as TO the fact
that it is economy TO do so. In addition to
the work formerly done by the inspector he
has been enabled during the past year by
the aid of the increased force given to his
office to give more critical examination
to elevators. He reports that the
passenger elevators were generally
found in good order but that the
freight elevators have not been
found in good condition. Many of them
were found without proper guards or auto
matte doors or gates, and he is taking such
steps as are necessary TO have these defects
remedied and the ordinance respecting
elevators complied with. The plumbing
inspector has inspected the plumbing of
439 buildings during the year. out of which
number he made proper test of 403, and in
the course of inspection 100 cases were found
of defective work, and quite a number of
them so glaringly defective as to be
dangerous to the health and lives of
he occupants OF the premises. The
Inspector recommends the formation of a
plumbing examining board, whose duties it
should be to examine all applicants for a
license to practice the trade of plumbing in
the city. He suggests that this board shall
consist of one architect. one retired plumber
and the city plumbing inspector, and that
said board should adopt such rules and reg
ulations for the conduct of the examination
as would secure such a class of plumb
ers on whom the city could rely
for scientific and permanent plumb
ing. Another matter of importance
to which the inspector calls attention
is the inspection of chimneys. A large pro-
norton of fires to dwellings are caused by
ective chimney construction and tooI.are-
tul attention cannot be paid 10 this matter

AMlNNEAPOLIs AFFRAY.
Thomas Kennedy Dangerously
stabbed by Owen Deyine.

Last evening a stabbing ARRAY occurred
in the alley in the rear of 119 North Wash

Thomas Kennedy and man named Bloom

Gus characters named Mrs. Whitcomb and

that he was cripple and could not make
defense, but would bring a friend who
would make fight for him. He went out
and soon returned with a character known
as Owen Devine and a son of Mrs. Whit
comb. Kennedy accepted a dare and
went into the alley to fight out the feud.
When the men faced each other Devine

then on the back of his neck and finally
through the left groin just over the pelvic
bone. With his last wound Kennedy fell

THE TELFPUONE RACKET.

After thinking the matter over. Attorney
General GARLAND has concluded TO take
the GLOBES advice and announces his in
tention 10 unload his telephone stock. As
guarantee of his sincerity in the matter
he proposes 10 donate it to some charitable
institution. This disposition of it will be a
better evidence of sincerity on his part than
it will be benefit TO the institution which
receives il, seeing that the stock at this
writing is probably not worth more than
2 mills on the dollar. But whatever be its
value the fact that the attorney general
has Invested himself OF the suspicion of be-
ing an interested party in the suit which the
government is to prosecute against the Bel
Telephone company, gives hope that he
will now roll up his sleeves and rattle the
Bell monopoly in the way it deserves. Mr..
GARLAND is a lawyer of acknowledged
ability, and if ne is 10 remain at the head of
the department of justice the people expect
him to throw his talent and legal attain
ments into the contest against this and all
other mOnopOlies.
The singular interest that Senator Ed
MUNDs has manifested in attempting to
hound the attorney general out OF Office
mas led TO an investigation Of the Vermont
senator's motives in the matter. The result
has been to identify Mr.. EDMUNDs very
closely with JAY GOULD in the latter's tel
egraph operations. But the senator's
friends came to his rescue by saying that
while pretty close relations did exist be-
tween the Vermont senator and the West
ern Union millionaire, he was free of any
connection with the Bell Tele-
phone company, because he had
once been counsel for the Draw
baugh company against the Bell COM
pany. Further investigation developed the
fact that while Mr.. EDMUNDs did appear
as counsel in the case and carried it to the
supreme court of the United States, yet,
while the case was still pending, a cOmprO-
mise was effected and the suit withdrawn.
And now it is stated that it was through
the good offices and capable Intermediary
abilities of Mr.. EDMUNDs that the Bell
company succeeded in effecting a compro-
mise. In view of the statements that are
being made, aud the deep interest that the
senator has evinced in this matter. that
now he has his hand In, he should call for
papers and an investigation of his new re-
lations with rival telephone companies.
