1t Is melancholy revelation but
the historian has become convinced that the
female mind may actually become nuffed
up with Harvard knowledge. as well a. that
OF the other sex. This it the incident that
convinced him:
Two young women from different narts
of the country, who thought they had
gathered up all the regular schools and
seminaries could teach, came to the Har-
ward annex. The meditating maidens ara
fancy free at the annex, and each elected
her particular educational VANITY" At

A. Seen by the Press.

LONDON, Feb. 9.-The Times says: If
Burns and Hyndman have not already been
arrested they should be taken into custody
at once. No misplaced fear of
making martyrs of them ought to
prevent this punishment Genuine unem-
ployed workmen are sufferers by such riots
in the succeeding anger, which struts out
public sympathy. The government must
organize an emigration scheme.
The News attributes yesterdays riot to
socialists and free traders taking advantage
of an excellent opportunity TO attempt 10
convince the world that social revolution
is brewing. There is nothing TO cause seri-
Gus alarm. The riot ought TO pro-
woke higher anger, not a panic.
The distress is very real, and efforts should
be made to alleviate it. Owing to the
long absence of riots the police were
taken by surprise. The riot renders
the lesson that a disposition exists
to use empty stomachs and idle
hands for purposes of political and social
agitation. The total number of police
available yesterday was probably over
2 800, while 1000 were used on the occa-
sion of the opening of parliament by the
queen. Twelve persons have been arrested
for participating in the riot. All are work
men.
The Telegraph and Post complain of the
unprepared condition of the police and
hope the riot will be warning TO the Off
Gals for the future.

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.
The war on Garland.

To the Editor of the Globe:
In the war being waged against Secretary
Lamar and Attorney General Garland the
principle at issue seems to be lost sight of,
and. for no other reason than that Mr..
Garland acted as the attorney for the Pan
Electric company, for which it is not i'm
probable that he received Pan Electric
stock as fees. AS to this we know not, but
would consider it a commonplace business
matter. Mr.. Garland's subsequent appoint
ment as attorney general, and the matter OF
the validity of the Bell patent being brought
before the government during his admins
tratlon mas nothing whatever to do with the
merits Oh the telephone case, and would not
Justify him even in avoiding the response
bility attaching to him as representing the
government.
AfidaTits were made by former en-
ployes OF the patent office before the
tribunal designated by Secretary Lamar to
determine whether the government was
juStihable in bringing action to ascertain the
validity Of the Bell patents or not. Said
affidavits set forth that the Bell patents
were Illegally issued, of which there can be
no doubt if the affidayits be verifie2. In
such event it is the duty of the government
without delay to right the wrong done, and
if as alleged the Bell patents were obtained
| by fraud the government should annul
! them at the earliest possible moment and
do justice to the rightful inventor as well as
to the public in general, and any
Sinking of the prompt investigation
of the matter by the authorities will be
looked upon by honest inventors and
all persons interested in legitimate patent
property with suspicion. The monopoly
and anti-administration press reflect dis
credit upon themselves in ignoring the mer-
its of the case for private and political pur-
poses. Our government should have every
encouragement in their effort to do justice
to its subjects, but supported or unsup-
ported, it is evident justice will be done as
far as in its power, and owners of legiti-
mate property in patents will hail with de-
light any expose of dishonesty in the issue
of patents.
There could be no more convincing proof
of the honesty of purpose of Secretary La
mar and Attorney General Garland than the
fact they are not acting in the interest of
the Bell Monopoly, but in the interest of
| justice.
In this matter the administration, the
government should have the hearty support
andcOntidence of all who desire an honest
administration of the public trusts prospect
i've of party prejudiees.
Respectfully,
=. a. MCANULTY.

The Chinese New Year Not Extern
siYeIY Observed.

Although the Cinnamon in st. Paul have
not been noticed as participants in any Of

mild form of celebration over his New

last for about two weeks longer. Sam

''How do you celebrate your New

What do you do in st. Paul?"
go lOund nights, see Cinnamon. Dlink
some tea. Eat peanuts. Not make much
noise. You like peanuts?"
On being told that few peanuts would
be an acceptable gift, Sam reached under
his laundry board and drew out bag con-
tanning what were decidedly unlike peanuts
as the people in this country know them.
They were brown, about the size of En-
glish walnuts, ana their shells were shriv-
eled. They looked like little dry burs
from an evergreen tree. The shell peeled
OFF and within was a sort OF fruit some
thing like raisin, with a stone inside it.
The celestial said he had brought the fruit
with him when he came TO this country,
and that his cOuntrymen ate them OF
HAPPY New Year" They were sweet
and their flavor quite palatable and seemed
especially so to Sam Wah. who ate them
rapidly and saved the stones, a quantity OF
which he had piled up on one end Of his
laundry board.

Never i'm the TranscontinenraI.

Special TO the Globe.
MILWAUKEE, Wis, Feb. S.-General
Manager Miller of the st. Paul road said
this evening that the report that the ST.
Paul had instructed its San Francisco rep
resentative to give notice of the withdrawal
of the road from the transcontinental pool
was incorrect. The st. Paul had never
been in the transcontinental. 1t had been
customary TO make new agreement every
week or two in regard to passenger bust
ness. and the San Francisco agent had sim
ply been instructed to give notice that the
st. Paul would hereafter enter into no
more agreements. as rates, in the opinion
of the st. Paul management, could be MAIN
tanned without as well as with an agree
ment. The alleged reduction in rates to-
day to Denver and San FRANCISCO. Mr.. Mil
iler said, was Just the reduction on the
through rate that arose from the cut of 81
TO Council Bluffs.

DIR. Kittredge Sustained.

CHICAGO, Feb. S.-Dr. Thomas and
Prof. Swing yesterday referred to the libel
suit of Justice Mech against Rev. Kit
redge, taking the ground that the minister
had been none too severe in his structures.
and urged that all Christians take hand in
helping DIR. Kittredge. Among other
things Prof. Swing said:
1t showed that the loafers were receiving
too much favor from the administrators OF
justice. There seemed only dollar of differ
ence between the office of the one and the
pursuit of the other. The substantial argu-
ment of DIR. Kittredge should be upheld by
all lovers of the city's veal, and every
eudeavor used TO bring about a condition o!
things when a court of justice could never
be court of injustice. and when the work
man with his dinner pail was more esteemed
than 200 loafers in a public resort.
