A FATAL BULLET.

S. e. French Accidentally Shot
by John Lovering--He Died This
Morning.
At the Office of the American District
Telegraph company, No. 1876 East Fourth
street, yesterday morning, S. E. French
was accidentally shot and fatally
wounded while examining revolver in
the hands of his boon companion, John
Lowering. There was no witness to the
shooting. Supt. Yates, of the A. d. T.,
was sitting behind his desk at $3.50
o'clock when French and Lowering
came in together and walked back
to the battery room. They had intended
to go down the river with little boat
which French recently built, and were
fixing their revolvers to take along,
when the one which Lowering had was
accidentally discharged, and the bullet,
which was 32-caliber, entered French's
abdomen on the right side just above
the groin. The Central patrol was
called at once and French was removed
to st. Luke'S hospital. Lowering went
with him and stuck close to the bedside
all day. Internal hemorrhage set in an
hour after his removal to the hospital,
and Drs. Murphy and Hoyt per
formed an operation and succeeded in
checking it. French made a state
went to the physician completely exon
Grating Lowering from all blame and
said it was just the.same as though he
had done it himself. The physicians
did not dare to probe for the ball
and French did not rally from
the operation performed to check
the hemorrhage. 1t was necessarily
fatal wound, and at $40 o'clock in the
evening the victim died. Lowering is
overcome with grief. He and French
had been the most intimate friends for
several years, and had rOomed and
boarded together. They were of the same
age, twenty-five. Lowering is the cleo
trician of the A. d. L. company, and
French was carpenter who had been
irregularly employed doing odd jobs for
the company and working at his trade
outside. Coverings family reside in
Minneapolis. French has a sister and
brother-in-law living on Oak street, in
this city.

MANAGING THE BEAUTIES.

an engagement at the museum.

Park CONGREGATIONAL.

AT the Park Congregational, in COM
mon with other churches in the city,
special services were held, the notable
feature of the occasion being the music,
rendered by an augmented choir and the
elaborate floral display. The plat
form at the head of the
church had the appearance of the
interior of a conservatory, profusion
of odorous cut flowers and potted plants
being tastefully arranged about it, while
from its sides hung ropes of smilax and
creeping vines. The decorations, which
were exceedingly elaborate, were made
under the supervision of Mrs. G. W.
Griggs, and evidenced her superior taste
in that line.

WOUNDED IN MIMIC BATTLE.
Nj. T. Grattan Calls on the State
Fair Managers to Help the
Soldier Injured in the Sham

Fair Managers to Help the
Soldier Injured in the Sham
Battle.
Readers of the GLOBE will doubtless
remember that during the progress of
the state agricultural fair early last
September, George d. Knox suffered
a severe injury to his eyes by
reason of the premature discharge
of blank cartridge in the
sham battle. The society Immediately
voted to pay him $500 at once and such
other sums afterwards as in the judg-
ment Of the board of managers should
$500 was paid but no further action was
taken in the matter. M. L. Grattan
now writes lengthy communication to
the GLOBE, in which he severely con-
dennis the board for neglecting it. He
states that Mr.. Knox is physically I'M
able to do any work, as he is nearly, if
not quite blind, and is possessed Ony of
eighty acres of land valued at $1,000
and incumbered by a mortgage of
$500, and his personal indebt
tedness is between $70O and $500 and his
personal property valued only at $3.50.
Mr.. Grattan presents certificate from
DR.. A. Plummer, at Hamilton, MIMI,
which says:
''In regard to the condition of George
Knox, L would say that he is
nearly blind, ana will soon be
completely SO if the oculist does not
give him relief. He seems very
feeble and am satisfied that there is
some injury to the nervous system. He
does not seem at all as he used to. |
have no idea he will ever be able to do
any work again."
Mr.. Grattan also presents the copy of
a letter from Judge John Q. Farmer,
at Spring Valley, in which the
venerable judge states that
he belives the statement of
Knox's physical condition and financial
circumstances to be perfectly truthful.
Mr.. Grattan states that Mr.. Knox was a
good soldier and served CALAMITY in the
Third Minnesota; that in mimic war he
lost his eyes in an effort to bring thou
sands of people to the grounds and thus
enrich the Golfers of the society. He
closes his communication by saying:
Nov, gentlemen of the board, obey
the mandate of the society. Every dol
lar of the $1,000 is needful to alleviate,
so far as possible. KnoX's sufferings.
Your only duty was to ascertain his
needs THAT duty has been performed for
you. The society and the state of Min
nesota will applaud your prompt and
cheerful compliance with the spirit and
letter Of that resolution" -

swering. oresponse to words drawn from
us by our overwhelming needs. But
what does such an old difficulty indi-
cate, but that we still walk too much by
sight, and that the spiritual world is to
us far away, or dim and unreal? The
tendency to believe in only what is ma
terial is Just now all-impelling and life
becomes low-keyed and coarse in conse-
quence. What is every returning
Casters lesson, as we plod on in the
round of our dull tasking labors, but
that the risen Christ is nearer and more
accessible to men than when he was
bodily present to the little company that
followed him about during his long ago
ministry in Judea. Thus does
the living Christ keep His place
amid the earth's hurrying crowds and
busy shops, and because He thus lives
related to men everywhere, do they
reach up to any really abiding life.
Dependence Oh this living Christ is the
truth the day and our text emphasize:
He affects us by ministry as direct and
personal as John or Peter experienced.
He stimulates and expands our life by
a daily proffered grace. From Him
comes to us the rapture of pardon, when
repentant, and consolation all-Sufflc-
ing when griefs have gloomed us
around; strength, too, for service He
replenishes. as His disciples wistfully
look for rest or reinforcement. 1t is
spiritual law that all human hearts re-
ceive their chief impulses from some
being exalted above them. Thus
the child learns its first lessons
and gets its earliest impulses from the
mother. In like manner the scholar
look up to his instructor, and from his
completer culture acquires the knoWl-
edge and love OF letters which in after
years converts him in turn into the peer
of the master, The law but gains an
ampler unfolding when we apply it to
the relation of the disciple to the Christ.
1t nobly alters the thread of the formers
life, converts him to cenSecrated ca
reer, brings him under the commission
which makes him a gospeller to lost
world and endows him with the august
power promised to such.
And what is the message of Easter to
the weary and hopeless SONS OF men?
Ye adj may live. carrying your Christ
begotten hope and courage and asplra-
ton into another world. And that is
the question of questions for thoughtful
heartS-to live because Christ lives,
meets every deepest longing; to live
augmenting in power, in excellence, III
meetnesS- for unSelfSh service, this
breaks the tyranny of this world, and
opens to us the freedom of Immortality.
Take up your task with new alacrlty,
for this is day for strong and cheerful
resolutions. Let everything dead and
formal 90 out of our life and heart to-
day, and let us begin Oh the new grand
life this day preSageS, and the door
into which Christ holds open.

ODDS AND ENDS.

1t was April Fool day yesterday, but
rs it was Sunday there was noticeable
lack of attempted fool jokes. Few peo-
pie took the trouble to nail coin to the
sidewalk, and the usual corners were
not well enough supplied with
loaferS to make it an object
for the small boy to work the pocket
book and string. Besides, it was Easter
Sunday, and most people were sup
posed to be in frame of mind not cal
culated to lead to the friyolities of April
fool jokes.
Although it was chilly yesterday
morning and the sky was gray till after
church time, there was bit of genuine
Easter sunshine in the afternoon, and
numerous spring suits were noticeable
on the streets in the residence part of
the city.
So great was the attendance at Christ
church yesterday morning, and so late
were many of the people in coming, that
the ushers had to keep the doors closed
part of the time or the late ones would
have disturbed the services. A
card was placed on the out
side door about the hour of
the beginning OF service, winch SAID
that the doors would be opened again
at 10:40. In the few minutes that fol-
lowed, the sidewalk was blocked with
persons eager to worship. One man who
could not get near enough to read
the card, for he was near-sighted.
saw something posted up, and thinking
that some one bad been rash enough to
perpetrate an April fool joke, left in
disgust, remarking that it was time
something was done when such serious
things as Easter worship were interfered
with by idle testers.

1t was very prosaic man who did not
put on a buttonhole bouquet yesterday
afternoon. Indeed, flowers were to be
seen everywhere. The hotels made
vigorous inroads on the greenhouse
supplies. Every table in the Mer-
chants dining room was graced by
choice bouquet of fragrant
cut flowers, and the plates at the Wind
sor at dinner were all provided with
boutonnieres. A large supply of potted
plants was placed i'll each window of the
Windsor dining room, and the whole
made the air fragrant.
