Special to the Globe.
. DULUTH, Oct. 30.-The principal topic
of conversation on the streets to-day has
been the speech of Hon. C. A. Gilman
at st. Cloud last night. On every cor

cratic their hats were on the backs of
their heads, while cigars pointed heaven

close together AMI cigars seemed in
Specting the sidewalks. Democrats
here now regard the election of Z. NJ.

Republicans admit the chances for Mr..

SHORT NOTES.
Business in the municipal court this
morning was dull, and just to relieve
the monOtony Judge Martin proposed to
issue a warrant for the arrest of G. a.
Gilman for striking w. r. Merriam.
The Judge says no man has a right to
strike another-especially when the
man is down.
Secretary Hewitt, of the state board
of health, was 10 address the chamber
of commerce this morning on sanitary
matters, but the st. Paul & Duluth
train due at o'clock this morning did
not reach here until nearly noon, and
the address was necessarily postponed.
j. p. McGaIghey, of Minneapolis, de-
livered political address in the interest
OF Charles Canning at the court house
last evening. The attendance was
quite large, and the eloquent gentle
mans efforts were well received.

nights limited.
Hon. f. NJ. Wilson will be in Duluth
Friday evening next, and the local

WORK FOR THEKEARsARGE.
American Interests at Port au
Prince.


New York, Oct. 30.-The seizure of
the American steamer Haytian Repub-
lie has become an international episode,
as will be seen by the following letter
from Secretary of State Bayard:
Depar unent OF State. Washington, Oct.
90 1SSS.-Messrs. Lord d Austin, New York
City-Genilemen: l have to acknowledge
the receipt of your letter OF the 21th inst,
in which you inform the department of the
seizure of the American steamship Haytian
Republic at ST. Mare. and request that i'll
view of the serious state of affairs in Hayti at
the present time and of the jeopardy in which
the lives and property or Americans are now
placed, mhll-of-war be sent thlther lmme-
diately. The department. has received in
formation of similar purport from the
United States minister at Port au Prince.
and reply has instructed him 10 protest
instantly against the action OF the Haytian
authorities, and has informed him that a
man-of-war will be ordered to proceed to
HaytiaD waters as soon as possible. / am,
gentlemen, yOur obedient servant,
T. +. BAYARD.
The navy department has been re-
0uested by the secretary of state to send
a man-of-war to Hayti to look after
American interests there, which appear
to have been jeopardized by the seizure
of the American steamer Haytian Re-
public at st. Marc and other disturbing
events at Port au Prince. At present
all of the vessels of the North Atlantic
station are laid up in navy yards for
repairs, except the Boston, which is now
at some Central American port, be-
yond the reach of the telegraph. Eff
forts will be made to communicate with
her, and it is expected that the vessel
will be able to reach Hayti in a few
days. 1t was finally decided to send
the KearSage, now undergoing repairs
at Norfolk, and Commodore Harmony
to-day sent instructions to hasten the
work OH that vessel so that she can be
put into commission in few days. She
will proceed direct to Port al Prince.

yesterday, ''there is large amount of

The Messenger Boys Lot.
philadelphia Times

Altogether, the lot of messenger boy
is not happy one. They are subjected
to posture in all sorts of weather and
have to take their turns in working all
night. The little fellows walk num-
Der of miles in the course Of day or
night and in carrying the hundreds of
dispatches nightly to the newspaper of
fees they have many a flight of stairs
to climb. No matter how hard it rains
or SHOWS or blows, the messenger boy
has to go out in the storm. He can
wait for the abatement of the storm,
because his message is an important
one, and must be executed at once.
These boys carry in sealed envelopes the
news of the world from the telegraph
Offices to the newspaper offices, and as
rule they run the errands with dispatch.
OF course they play and loiter along
the streets, because they are boys, but
the lettering is generally done after they
have delivered their messages, when
they are on their way back to the tele-
graph office None of the district offices
employ a sufficient number Of boys
They manage to have only enough
boys to keep the messengers they have
busy. This, of course, is an economic
move which the messenger boy does not
UNNECESSARILY Ilh6 OGII6I puOIlC OSINdnCS,
the boys get dime or a quarter here
and there now and then.
Their association with street life and
the queer scenes they come in contact
with has a tendency to make them
tough, and by the time they have grad
uated from the messenger service they
know pretty much all that is worth
knowing about the shadows and lights
of a great city. They carry love mes
sages to expectant girls and messages
that help to break women's hearts.
They see a great many things that most
people don't see and they know more
than the ordinary observer gives them
credit for.
Said manager: eve are very par
ticular about the boys we employ.
Every one must read readily and give
two or three good recommendations
Very few boys are taken under Is years
of age, and most of them average be-
tween Is and Is. We give our boys
lectures sometimes and thoroughly in
struct them how to deliver packages
and run errands. So we'll have they
been trained that they could not be
stopped on the street"

Calling on an Emir.
Youths C)mp3nion.l


When Dr. Landsell, during his late
markand, he thought it best to make
most of his opportunities in the follow
ing fashion:
I first put on my casSock, that did
duty when | went to the court Of st.
James. Over this put on gorgeous,
gold-embroidered waistcoat, adapted
from a garment | bought in SerVia, az
a specimen of Sevarian gentleman's
Yest-grand enough for a general
and tied a cincture at the bottom, with
ends hanging at the side, and over these
] hung my scarlet hood.
Fortunately, perhaps, there was no
mirror in the room, or my heart might
have failed me; but l next put round
my neck a provincial grand chaplain S
collar of purple and gold, and on this
pinned three or four Masonic jewels, by
way of medals, and slung at the bottom
my pocket Bible, after which my cos
tune was completed by a college cap;
and thus arrayed [ mounted my palfrey
and sailed forth. My two dignities
went in front, preceded by a whole
bevy of officials, and the two interpret
ers came after.
''Of course l looked at the people as
we passed through the streets. Need |
say that they looked still harder at me-,
doing my utmost, as | was, to keep my
countenancel The boys, not content
with passing glance, ran before, and
Kept turning round to look, and in the
bazaar buyers and sellers stopped their
bargaining in order to gaze.
All went we'll, however, and We
reached the citadel. This is a large
artificial mound, surrounded by high
clay walls, having an imposing gate
way, with a chamber above and a
tower on either side. A number of
troops were drawn up, who received
me with salute, and we dismounted,
to be received by two officers at the en-
trance, one of whom took charge Of my
presents for his master. We then crossed
the first court, and on entering the sec
ond, l caught sight of his majesty at
a distance through an open door.
''The audience-chamber was a good
sized room, carpeted all over, but with
out a stick of furniture, except two
roughly made deal chairs, with Grim
son seats. The emir was perched on
one, and after giving me feeble shake
of the hand, he motiOned me to the
other" After explaining the nature of
his mission to the emir, which was to
distribute good books in prisons and
hospitals, and examine antiquities, the
doctor took his leave in the same formal
way.

A Temperance Lesson.

The missionary Herald for Febru-
airy contains the following: GA notable
lesson in temperance was given the
other day at Honolulu by the Consul
General of Japan, Mr.. Ando, who is a
native japanese. He had received as a
present from some friends in Japan two
casks of liquor; but with the purpose OF
warning his fellow-countrymen on Ha-
waii against drinking habits, and to show
them that he meant what he had said on
the subject of temperance, he took the
casks into his yard, had holes bored into
them and poured out the contents upon
the ground. Would that all consuls
were like this Japanese official at the
Sandwich islands,"

Profits of sugar-making in Kansas.

Profits of Susar-making in Kansas
The Kansas Legislature offered a
bounty of two cents a pound on all sugar
made from sorghum, beets or other
sugar-yielding crops grown in the State,
and Congress made an appropriation to
encourage experiments in the diffusion
process. Stimulated by these offers, the
Parkinson mill at Fort Scott secured a
supply of cane from the farmers in the
vicinity by contracting for it in the
spring. In its operations in the fall it
consumed 3,S40 tons of cane, grown on
$50 acres of land. The product was
1886 pounds of sugar, valued at 534
cents pound-$13 $50; 81, 900 gallons
syrup, worth 20 cents a gallon-$1O, POO
467 tons seed, estimated at $1,000, to
which is to be added the State bounty OF
2 cent pound on the sugar-$4, 10
making the total receipts 1874, 476. The
expenses were: 8, $40 tons of cane at 81
ton-$7 $50; 967 tons of seed at 81 a
ton-$1 ,943; labor, fuel, salaries, insur-
ance and incidentals-$12 1872; total.
$21, 746. This leaves a net profit OF
81, 299. The State law giving a bounty
required that the sugar should contain
80 per cent of crystalized sugar; the
quality of the article made at the mills
was 90 per cent. This is a good season
certainly. Deducting the bounty of 2
cents pound, leaves a net profit OF
$8,506, which is % per cent on the in
vestment.-[St. Louis Republican.
