TITS EXTORTlON.

How some Men Are Getting Rich,
According to Mr. ID H. NOyes--Wiu
Try to StopIt.
To the Editor of the Globe.
Dear Sir: We desire again to call public
attention to the cruel and illegal transactions
of some so-called financial agents. in our
midst Last week we made public q case
over 100 per cent. interest and commission
was being exacted from poor fellow, whose
family our society was aiding to daily bread,
as the loan was secured on bis household fur
niture. To-day another case comes to our
knowledge where poor laborer in time of
great need last year in June borrowed sou,
also secured on his household goods, and has
since paid, interest and commission, ST. on
this loan and So so more is now demanded as
a months commission and interest," and
also the original $50, for which the household
goods are still held.
This is extortionate and illegal; we advise
our poor people, who are thus being robbed,
to resist such demands and to secure good
attorney to contest the matter.
Our society for the relief of the poor, while
it has no money to pay these loans, will yet
do all in their power to protect and aid our
needy poor and to free them from illegal and
oppressive exactions. Respectfully,
DAN r. MOVES, Treasurer.
WILL TRY TO STOP IT.

evening concerning the above He stated
that as to the first case of the kind coming
under his notice and detailed in his first
communication, he had all the papers in
his possession, but would not make the
agents name public as he had made prompt
restitution and agreed to go out of the bust
ness. Concerning this second case MI.
Moves said it was brought to his attention
through the publication Of his first letter.
The man had had the money little over a
year and had actually more than paid the
principal, and still was called Oh for the
principal Mr.. Moves had not yet got hold
of the papers, but intended to, and to COM
pei the financial agent" to cancel the
mortgage as he had taken counsel with a
LAWYER on the case, who had told the poor
man to break the money lenders head
and | will defend you," as it was uSury.
He had learned of several very wealthy
men in the city who were doing the same
kind of business and he intended to
stop it if possible. Mr.. NoyeS says as fast
as he gets the proof he will prosecute them
himself if the parties interested do not.
He has asked the opinion OF eX-Gov. Davis
On the point and MI. DAVIS says such bust
ness is usury, that the supreme court has
decided it so, and men can be prosecuted
for extorting such interest. Notwithstanding
1t is called commission. The Relief society
has no money to loan, but Mr.. Noyes SAID
that any gentleman who had money to loan
could not do better than to put it into the
hands of the Relief society to loan to poor
people at a legitimate rate of interest. MI.
Noyes says the legal steps will be taken te
1rive such eXtortionate business out OF
iown, and if the law won't work, then hi
will see what public opinion will do.

Trainer John McKeon said yesterday that
there were fourteen vests in the big mans
wardrobe. He intimated that Sullivan
would start secondhand clothing store if
times ever grow bad in the pugilistic pro-
fesson. 1t is said that Sullivan made many
objections to first wearing silk hat. He
possessed an old and battered derby, and
considered it quite good enough for him.
His friends insisted upon rigging him up in
a high silk hat, though, and at last sue
ceeded in getting him to wear one. Sullivan
was afraid the people would laugh at him.

Two men were walking on Fourth street,
near Wabasha, last night arm in arm.
Where they had been is not known, or
whether they were otherwise than sober did
not appear, except from a bit of converse
ton. A rat ran across the sidewalk in
front of them, and neither spoke for min
ute. Finally one said:
"A rat just ran in front of us. Did you
see it?"
1t was rat, was it?" was the reply.

EFT SAYINGS.

MI. Matthews of the State Sportsmen's
association told me the other day, while
speaking of the move to enforce the game
laws of the state, that the game in Mime.
sofa had played a more important part in
the state, and in this city in particular than
most people were aware. He spoke of the
numbers of men who had come here in
other years on hunting expeditions. and of
the opportunities thus afforded for men to
get view of the country. The men who
came here on these expeditions were. as a
rule, men of considerable means. and
thought no little good had come to the state
from the opinions that were scattered in
this way.

But it was not alone in this way, for
some of the men who had come here had
been so favorably impressed that they had
decided to locate here, and Mr.. Matthews
said he could name three men who lived on
ST. Anthony hill. and who were among the
most enterprsing of st. Pauls citizens,
who would never have come here, in all
human probability. had they not first had
their attention drawn this way while on
just such trips. He believed that the end
of this might not be yet, and this he urged
as one reason why healthy game laws
should be observed.

reader. to st. Paul and Minneapolis, recalls
to one man at least vivid recollection of
the last time he heard her. 1t was about
eight years ago, and he was then student
at Dartmouth college Miss Potter had
been engaged by the class of which this
gentleman was member to give reading
in the college church usual place for
all courses of reading and lectures. A few
days before the reading was to occur, one
of the professors, who was rather
ultra orthodox in his views, objected
to having the reader appear in
the church, because she read in theaters
and had some selections that were from
purely theatrical plays. This professor
worked up sentiment among few men,
bers Of the faculty, who signed a protest
against Miss Potters appearance. But she
came just the same, and gave the reading,
although the professors with the tOo-old-
fogy ideas would not attend. After the
reading, it was suggested by the students
who had become somewhat excited over the
action of the professors, that they be treated
to ''horning." About seventy five turned
out with tin hors. and for half hour footed
them under the windows of the professors,
making night hideous for blocks. All who
had signed the protest were treated alike
1t raised breeze among the faculty. A
medical student who had seen the whole
affair, gave away the names of the leaders,
and three were suspended. One OF these
was the man alluded to, who now lives in
Minneapolis, and does a big real estate
business. He related the incident yester-
day, and said: Our suspension lasted
three days, and then we were restored
| But you should have seen that medical
student that gave us away, when we got
done with him."

Man Pre- EmInentIy a Cooking Animal.

We are told that among the many
epithets that have been bestowed upon
man to distinguish him from all other
animals, he has been pre-eminently a
cooking animal-the only animal who
cooks or prepares his food prior to using
it Lindsay. There are many savage
races of men who use ilesh and fruits in
their raw state, sometimes even in a
condition of disgusting putr1dity. Not
only so, bat they devour living animals,
or flesh cut from living animals. More
over, they tear flesh with their teeth,
after the manner Of carniYOra Lindsay.
Until the arrival of the European the
Australians knew nothing about cook
ing OF boiling food (Buchner). The
busbmen of South Africa live partly
upon small birds. which they swallow
unplucked. Lizards are eaten raw by
the Digger Indians. The Veddas Of
Ceylon live on wild honey, lizards and
the flesh Of monkeys, deers and boars.-
Wild men and wolf children of India
tear and eat raw flesh, gather and gnaw
bones like dogs, catch and swallow flies,

A Knowing Dog.

At convent in France twenty Door
people were served with dinner at a
given hour every day. A dog belonging
to the convent was always present at
this meal, watching for any scraps that
might be thrown to him. The guests
being very hungry themselves, and not
very charitable the poor dog did little
more than smell the food. Each pauper
rang a bell, ard Lis share was delivered
to him through small opening, so that
neither giver nor receiver could see each
other. One day the dog waited till all
were served, when he took the rope in
his mouth and rang the bell. The trick
succeeded, and was repeated the next
day with the same success. At length
the cook finding that twenty-one Dor
tions were doled out instead of twenty
determined to find out the thief and at
last the clever dog was detected. But
when the monks heard the story, they
rewarded the dogs ingenuity by allow
ing him to ring the bell every day, and
a mess of broken victuals was thence
forth regularly served out to him in his
turn.

ears.

coucelves the oath, TO the tongue which
utters it and to the person at whom it is

heart to be a nest Of vipers and every
time he swears one of them sticks out
his head.
9. 1t is contemptible-for the
respect of all the wise and good.
10. 1t is wicked-violating the divine
