A Successful Beggar.

An old woman, perhaps 20 years of age,
and quite well attired, has been working"
the city as a beggar for several weeks, and
making the enterprise big success. Her
appearance being good, and her manners
quiet and ladylike, few men from whom
She asked a little financial assistance de-
clined to give it, and gentleman who
watched her one day saw her successfully
interview half dozen persons on street
within a space of two blocks. Her plea
usually was that she desired to join her son
in Stockton. but when gentleman offered
to write to her son for her, notifying him
that she was in need, she found ready
way of declining his proffer. Visiting the
staIion-house one day she made hey little
petition to Judge Henry and officer Far
rem. That she should succeed with the
Judge, who cannot say no to an appeal for
charity when he Is off the bench is not
surprising: but the smoothness OF her
style NAV be better understood when it is
stated that the eagle-eyed Farren not only
expressed his sympathy. but, not having
any silver in his pocket, walked half a
block to get change for a s. piece, that he
might donate half dollar for her relief.

At Turner hall last evening there assem-
bled quite large audience of the friends
and parents of the Sunday school children
of the Goodrich Avenue Presbyterian
church, to witness all entertainment given
fer the benefit of the church. The enter
tainment was very pleasing one. consisting
of instrumental musical selections. recita-
lions and representations of comieal char
acters. A mimic exhibition of the cele-
brated ''Mrs. Jarley's Wax Works" was
very creditably given, Miss Newson taking
the character of Mrs. farley, and making
several very taking local hits. A selection.
''Just a Wee Bit Lassie" was rendered by
Miss Christine Koch in very acceptable
manner. 1.-The Mldshipmite, a chorus by
nine boys in sailor costumes. banjo trio,
and song, 1.-The Indian Girl" by Miss
Rosa Hill were creditable features of the
entertainment. A recitation. entitled A
Little Boys Pottet, by Master Willie
Koch was one of the hits of the evening,
and was especially pleasing to the younger
portion of the audience. A Procession of
Days, representing the holidays of our
country, headed by Old Father Time, con-
cluded the evenings pleasures. The pro-
ceeds will be devoted to furnishing the
church.

Special TO the Globe.
PIrTsBURG, Pa, May THE remains
of Capt. Thomas j. Barney of st. Paul,
Mimi, were cremated to-day at the Samson
crematory on Sixth avenue. The furnace
was heated by natural gas. 1t was the
second cremation in which that fuel was
used. The remains arrived in the city at
7:1O o'clock, and were conveyed directly to
Mr.. SIMPSONS undertaking rooms. The
body, when ready for the retort, weighed
$40 pounds, one of the largest subjects ever
cremated. No one was present except a
relative of the deceased who had accom-
panied the remains and the en-
ployes of SIMPSONS undertaking
rooms. No trouble was experienced in
getting the furnace heated to the proper de-
gree. The gas was lighted during the af-
ternoon and one hour before the corpse ar
rived everything was i'll readiness. Ten
minutes after the coffin was carried into
the building the body was placed in the re-
tort Two hours later the gas was turned
off and the receptacle was removed and
cooled. The ashes were placed in an urn
and weighed Just eight pounds. Mr.. Bar
ney's relative who had witnessed a por
ton of the operation were perfectly as
founded. Natural gas was new thing to him
and it being used for crematory purposes
and so successfully, caused the Western
man with first ideas to hold up his hands in
establishment. This morning the ashes
were sent by express to Mr.. Barney's rela-
tives in st. Paul. Mr.. Barney had long
held that cremation was the proper way to
dispose of the dead. He read with interest
the account of the first cremation that took
place in the Lemoyne furnace at Little
Washington and requested his relatives to
have his body crelnated.

CAPT. JONES AS A SOLDIER.
Brief Sketch of the Once Brilliant
Soldier Now Dead

Capt. John Jones. who died in this city
a day or two ago, had an eventful history.
some points of which are of interest. He
Was native of England, and came to
America before the Mexican war, in which
he enlisted as private. He did good SER
vice during that conflict, and at it's close
was retained in the service. His branch
was the artillery service, and he was first
class artilleryman. He first came to Min
nesota in 1856, with the celebrated fiying
battery of the late Maj. (snce Gen.
Thomas W. Sherman, now deceased. which
at that time was probably the finest bat
terry Of horse artillery In the world. Sergt.
Jones was stationed at Fort Smelling. and
soon after went with the battery to Fort
Ridgely, where it remained until the rebel
lion broke out, when it was sent to the
front, and (under command of the gallant
Ricketts,) was almost annihilatcd at first
Bull Run.
Sergt. Jones, however. did not go to the
front just then. He was detailed to re-
main at Fort Ridgely, and take care of the
government property at that post. Hewas
in command there in 1862, when. on August
10, the Sioux outbreak occurred. at a time
when the fort was manned only by mere

through some very trying oldeals. He
came to Minnesota twenty odd years ago
and located at AnOka, where he practced
law and wrote editorials for Republican
weekly paper. Later he moved to Duluth
and established the Tribune, which he has
been publishing for many years. During
the first boom his paper fourished and
when the collapse occurred it appeared
certain that the Daily Tribune would have
to suspend publication. MIR. Mitchelfswas
equal to the emergency and made the paper
the organ of the thinkers. 1t advo-
Gated the doctrines enunciated by Pope
Bob Ingersoll and received subscriptions
from the intidels all over the country The
scheme worked successfully and the out
side circulation kept up the paper until the
second Duluth boom began, when he
gradually worked out of the infdelity organ
business and became general daily news
paper once more. His visit to St. Paul at
the present time is to arrange for the inn
provement Of the Tribune.

Col Graves of Duluth said that it was
pretty well understood that the Hon.
Knute Nelson, the present congressman
from the Fifth district would be a candi-
date for reelection, his candidacy driving
off all other competitors. Col. Graves in
timated that he was not candidate in the
sense of seeking the nomination, but did
not know that he would refuse the nomina-
ton if rendered him. He said that he had
been to Washington Oh several occasions,
and this fact caused him to know that a
congressman did not amount to much, and
did not enjoy life at the federal capital
~
Maj. S. Pinney. Fargo, was an arrival.
He is an attorney at that place, being
largely interested in land business and has
quite an extensive practice in that par
ticular.

NIr. Ducius will ASK the Grand Jury
to Indict for Conspiracy.

NTr, DuCiuS Will ASK the eran0 - uTS
to Indict for Cons piracy.
To-day Ferdinand Ducius and number
of friends and witnesses will appear before
the grand jury. and on their evidence they
expect that an indictment will be issued
against certain members of the Bakers
union for intimidation and conspiracy
This move was begun by parties interested
in seeing the legality of boycotting tested
in the courts and the case will be pushed
and encouraged by the boss bakers. who
are expecting to be boycotted themselves,
by friends of Mr.. Ducius as we'll as others
who feel an interest in having the principle
tested.
Boveotting has been declared unlawful in
New York and California courts, but this
is the first time this question has been
raised in the Northwest and considerable
interest will be attached to the result OF the
present move.
In other trades the situation remains the
ssme. The st. Paul Furniture company
engaged three new men yesterday, and
one of the strikers, Swede, has promised
to return to work. He wanted to go to
work, but was afraid of the other strikers
until he was assured of protection if it was
needed.
