LOVES OLD DREAM.

Mr.. TUTHILL king of Chicago Is GER
tainly old enough to know his own mind
the SHOWS Of eighty-one winters having
whitened that respected gentlemen's locks,
such of them as the ruthless hand of time
has not pulled out, and therefore MI. KING
was at loss TO understand the opposition
made by relatives to his recent marriage 10
young woman in the city of divorces. 1t
is true the aged groom is encountered with
superabundance of this worlds goods, but
as long as the bride-elect found that no rea-
sonable objection to the realization of their
fondest hopes, he regarded the interference
of his family as unwarrantable intrusion.
As for the young woman, possessing the
traditional pride of Chicago girls in being
fully abreast of the times and the de-
mands Of fashion, she had probably
caught the prevailing craze for the
antique, and in Mr.. KING found
well-preserved specimen of prehistoric
times-history in Chicago only runs back
as far as the fire-the ownership of which
she could only obtain by marriage. While
Mr.. KING cannot, in the natural course of
events, expect TO retain his sovereignty over
his blushing but thrifty bride for many
years to come, he has the most important
essential to a successful and harmonious
rule in an overlooking treasury, of which he
is sErewd enough to retain the exclusive
control.

ANIERICAN OPERA

The possibility OF giving in America a
representation of opera devoid of foreign
frills and furbelows has at last been made
certainty. 1.-The Tanning of the Shrew"
cannot exactly be claimed to be American,
but at least it is written in the mother
tongue and is devoid of Italian or Frenchi-
fed Alterations, and the rendition of it in
New York last week met with such an I'M
mistakably warm welcome that il is proved
the public approves of the change. A
creditable production of opera or the sue
cessful training Of performers is not the
work of day, so but little exception
should be taken to the fact that some of the
leading singers were of foreign birth. AS
whole it was decidedly an American pro-
duction, and the merit which it undoubtedly
possesses is due solely to native enterprise
and talent. America has furnished many
shining lights to the lyric stage and it is but
question of time when no imported talent
at all will be necessary to the rendition of
opera of an exclusively national character.
The beginning has been well made.
much to the disgust of MAPLEsoN
and others of like ilk who have
long been accustomed to carry away Amer
lean dollars without contest and it looks
very much as though we were going to be
independent of other nations in this respect
as we are in others. In the fulIness of time,
in fact, we may do little musical mission
airy work by sending prime dome and we'll
equipped companies abroad. Ii may be,
however, that patriotic feeling clouded
with kindly prejudice the judgment of New
York critics at the performance given there
recently. although the unanimity of opinion
would seem to forbid such view, but be
that as 1t may, St Paul, little later in the
season when the company visits the North
west will have an opportunity to judge for
itself. The fact remains that start has
been well taken in emancipating ourselves
from foreign, and frequently oppressive,
musical thraldom.

A Girls Strange suicide.

Special 10 the Globe.
LANSING, Ia, Jan. 9.-Yesterday Rose,
daughter of John Doyle, left the house in a
huff Just as the family was sitting down TO
breakfast. because her father had not
brought home meat for dinner, and going
straight To an air hole in the river
plunged in and was seen no more
alive. Her sister Lizzie followed
her. when she said that she was not going
to any of the neighbors, as was her wont
whenever she got such freaks of temper,
and was the only witness TO the dreadful
deed. seeing her throw the shawl she had
on her head on a large rock on the bank
crawl on her hands and knees on the Ice and
plunge in and disappear under the lee. She
raised an alarm and q crowd was soon
attracted TO the spot, but could only stand
there amazed and horrihed, powerlesS 70 do
anything. In the course of an hour or so
a party arrived to make an effort To recover
the body if possible, which was soon re-
warded with success, il being seen through
the Ice not fifteen feet away from where
she took the fatal leap, held up most likely
by the current and the air that gathered
under her clothes, or else it was caught be-
tween two layers of ice. At any rate, 1t
was soon brought to shore and an inquest
held, the verdict being in accordance with
the above facts. Ii was generally thought
the girl must have been diseased mentally
to have committed the rash act She was
aged about 20, and for several years had
been her fathers hOuSekeeper.

THE APPRoACHING CARSIvAL.

During the present week the corner block
of the ice palace will be laid with becoming
ceremonies. This will inaugurate the car
nival season. Our people are hardly fully
awake to the importance of the event, nor
do they yet realize what benefits are 70 ac-
crue TO the city from the carnival. In one
sense it is an experiment, and. as usual,
people prefer TO await the results of the
experimental stage before becoming
thoroughly enthused with the work
in hand. Nor is it yet under
stood what an advertisement this carnival
is to be 10 the city. Only those OF
our citizens who have been away from
home or those who have been daily readers
Of the newspapers Of the country have any
correct knowledge Of how extensively the
matter has already been talked about in
other sections. The St Paul ice palace is
the topic OF more frequent talk and news
paper mention in the East than any other
matter connected with the West or North
west. Now that so much interest in this
matter has been excited in all parts of the
country it behooves the people of st. Paul
to see TO it that public expecta-
ton is not disappointed. The 1st
Of February will find the palace
completed and the carnival ready To be
opened. During the entire month Of Feb
ruary the city should present a gala-day APP
pearance. There should be decorations and
holiday paraphernalia displayed every
where. And as these things are to be done
it is time that preparations were now being
made. Three weeks is a short time within
which TO prepare the city for the carnival,
but with the usual st. Paul pluck and en-
terprise it can be done. The directors of
the carnival association are working like
badgers to get everything ready. But they
need aid from the outside. They want the
entire population of the city to come for
ward and aid them in the work. Every
mans shoulder should be put to the wheel
TO help the matter along and make the car
nival the magnificent success It deserves to
be and will be if this plea be needed. Our
local pride should stimulate US to this en-
deayOr. If this carnival is made a success
this season it will be continued next winter
and the next, and on until it will become a
permanent St Paul attraction.

NOT A RARITY.
To the Editor of the Globe.

To the Editor of the Globe.
Permit me to thank the GLOBE for making
public the instance of objectionable
cruelty practiced by an Eighth street
family toward the poor servant girl
who was sent TO weather-worn
cupola to give birth to her child. Such in
human conduct deserves to be brought to
public notice. '0h, the rarity OF Christian
charity!'' C.K.M.
st. Paul, Jan. o.
Christian charity is not such rarity as
we are sometimes made to believe. There
is more of the milk of kindness in the
human breast than we are usually led to
suppose. One swallow does not make a
summer, neither does an exceptional act of
cruelty prove that the entire human family
is cruel. The fact that of the
10000 people who live in st.
Paul there was only one family
in which such an act of inhumanity has oc-
CURED during this winter season is sufficient
evidence that it is not just to seize upon
this exceptional case to prove the rarity of
human kindness or of Christian charity.
For all the social disorders which now dis
turb the world, and all the contests be-
tween labor and capital, there is no more
certain cure or solution than the application
of the injunction of the Olivetic sermon,
"Whatsoever We would that men shall do
to you, do ye even so to them" If this
principle was universally adopted, every
thing could be settled, grandly and glori-
ously settled. Wherever difference arose.
whether in the mine, in the workshop. in the
store, or whether the divergence between the
parlor and the kitchen, it is all the same, it
is the law of love, Of sympathy and of
kindness which must settle it. In support
of this proposition and that its truthfulness
is being recognized, we find that when this
law is violated, as was in the case reported
in yesterdays GLOBE. the entire community
is shocked by the occurrence and righteous
indignation aroused. In this case it was
only servant girl and she a Magdalene.
Yet she was human being, and as such en-
titled to kindness and sympathy. What
matter If blight had fallen upon her life
and the ieper's faint was upon her in the
eyes OF the world. That was no excuse for
maltreatlng her or exposing her and her in
nocent infant to the chilling winds of win
ter. Poverty is no disgrace, neither is 1t
disgraceful to be rich. There is no reason
why differences in station should affect the
better influences of our nature. Sometimes
they DO, but it is encouraging to know that

New Stock Rules to Be Inaugurated

Northern PacifIc,s stock Business

y gentleman interested in the stock bust
ness IN Montana said yesterday:
understand the Northern Pacific road will
make some new departures next season in its
method OF handling Montana stock. Hereto
iore the company has expended large amounts
every season i'm working up the business, and
besides has employ ed man TO look after its
interests In Montana. IL will not do so next
SEASON, but will let the business come nat
urally TO II. Furthermore il will not pass
shippers over its line, but viii make them pay
the same rates as other passengers do. When
the money the Northern Pacific has expended
IN working up its stock trade is taken into
consideration, no blame can be attached TO il
Tor taking the action IL intends to. Never did
a road treat stock men more fairly than the
Northern Pacific has treated those who have
patronized its line. Stock men will be better
able TO pay for their transportation next sea-
son than they have been, and though the
passes courteously furnished them heretofore
by the road will be greatly missed, the ship
pers VIII soon get accustomed 10 paying for
their rides and will not mind. But as soon as
the Northern Pacific abandons its present
methods Of doing business, the Canadian Pa
citic will make a strong fight for business. II
IL extend; its Gait branch TO the boundary
line, as 1t now coutemplates doing, IL will be
better enabled TO compete with the Northern
Pacific than it has been I'm former seasons
and may take 10000 head or more out of the
territory.

Timber FraudS-

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-RepOrts received
at the general land Office from agents of
that office state that the Northern Pacific
Railroad company is making extensive sales
OF timber on public lands in Washington
Territory, which are claimed as indemnity
lands, but which have not been approved to
the company. The report that the plan Of
operations is TO file lists OF selections broad
cast without specifying any alleged basis
for such selections. and then to claim a
presumptiye title founded upon such selec-
tons, and selling the timber without wait
ing for the action of the interior depart
ment upon the claim. Commissioner
Sparks to-day recommended suit to re-
cover the value Of 1000. 900 feet of spruce,
and for logs cut for one party under cover
OF the railroad claim and sold to the
lumber firm of A. Gimpson 81 Co. OF San
Francisco, operating as the Hokium
Mill company.

The GLOBE is now the only morning paper
