bott Blunt is to do paragraph work;
that gentleman affected with the
name of Nicalay Greestad and two or
three other misguided human beings

The Gilt Ed ged Stuffer.

The true epicure would no more dream
of taking away the sharp edge of future
appetite by over indulgence than bar
Der would of opening tin can with
razor. He weighs his pleasures and
pains too nicely to be caught in such
vices. A fallacy is that an epicure al
ways needs the choicest delicaciaS to
stimulate his appetite. On the contrary.
the art of the epicurism consists in the
ability to get pleasure out of the most
commonplace articles of food by pre-
pairing and eating them properly.
OF course the epicure prefers cham
bertin to macon, canvaSback duck to
roast goose, for the same reason that he
prefers the fragrance of wood violet
to that of a coarse hot house flower;
but, Oh the other hand. he alone knows
what an oriental rose garden of magic
perfumes may be found in the smallest
crust of whole meal or graham bread
and butter. though ordinary mOrtalS may
easily convince themselves of their eX-
istence by eating a slice and allowing
the eXhaled air TO pass slowly through
the nose.

CONCERT NOTES.

The seventh grand sacred concert
given by the Danz organization took
place as usual yesterday afternoon and,
in point of largeness of the audience
and beauty Of the selections PLAYED.
was by far the most successful of
the series. 1t is evident to any one
who has carefully watched the course
of these exquisite concerts that the de-
mand Of Minneapolis people is fol the
highest grades of music in preference
to the mere jingle of popular airs, and
it is a reflection of which Frank
DAM is justly proud-that a programme
that is classical and appealing to the
higher emotions always succeeds better
than any other in drawing out crowd
representing all that is best and cul-
tured i'll the Twin Cities.
The concert yesterday afternoon
opened with one of Strauss tuneful
gems, and was followed by two selec-
tiOns that were played for the first time
in the city. They were respectively:
Overture. ''Fingal's Cave" Mendels-
sohn, and Carnival in Paris" by
SvendSOn.
The singing by \. w. Porter of the
''TOreador Song" from Carmen" was
enthusiastically received, and he MAIN
tanned his well won reputation of being
the best baritone solOist in the city.
Schumann's ''Treumerei'' for string or
chestra was given perfect ovation and
had to he repeated. The concert closed
with Meyerbeer's ''Torchlight Dance"
played in the same brilliant manner
that characterizes all the work of these
excellent musicians.
The Harmonic Society gave az excel
lent concert last night in their ball, i'm

many counter attractions on the tapis
last night. the attendance was

A Pathetic Funeral.

Funeral services for little Jay ,Jer-

The auditorium was crowded, for the

and his parents have the respect and
sympathy of the entire neighbor-

the boys character in pathetic strain
that brought tears to the eyes of most
of those who heard him. A choir sang
appropriate hymns and DR.. Bull offered
prayer. The little casket was carried

CARD FROM r.. A. HOLDRIDGE

In your issue of Friday, Jan. 20. dur
ing my absence from home, appeared an
article severely rejecting on my per-
SOnal character, and averSe as l am TO
newspaper controversy and exceedingly
painful as it is to spread family sorrows
before the public, feel that Justice to
my family, my sisters and my brother
forbid my longer silence.
/ have no harsh word of criticism for
my mothers course in this unhappy
matter: on the contrary, toward her [
have nothing but the tenderest and
most filial feeling. l have given liber-
ally of time, thought and money in an
endeavor to secure her happiness and
give her restful old age. and am still
anxious 10 do everything possible 10
that end.
My mother is not responsible for these
malicious, untruthful and dastardly az
ticleS that have appeared in the public
prints, and to state and emphasize that
fact to the public is the main object of
this article.
\ certain who sought and received
charity from my brother. taking ad-
vantage of my mothers hallucinatiOns
and cnfeebled mind, seeks to get from
her a living out of what my sisters
freely gave her. For him nv sisters.
brother and myself can have nothing
but contempt. The simple truth of this
sad business can he told in few words.
My mother IS. and has been for some
years, suffering from monomania.
brought Oh by nervous headaches and
sickness. Her hallucinatiOnS take the
form of believing that she is great
lady, has been very rich and that some
one, she thinks sometimes her children.
sometimes others, have robbed her of
her wealth and station. AS is usual in
such cases, Such beliefs are but the
phantomS of diSordered brain.
We children have suffered untold sOr-
row, both because of our sympathy and
love for her and because of the difficulty
of restraining her from acts of fol!y:
but we have borne our burden patiently
and hope to have grace still to do so,
providing only that malicious persons
may let US alone. One earnest wish is
that the tongue of idle gossip may at
least cOnfine itself to something ap-
preaching truth and that those who
may have judged harshly will suspend
further criticism until all the facts are
known to them and separated from the
falsehOOdS that have been disseminated
by designing persons.
My two sisters and brother, whose
names are signed below, the only sur
vivors of our family, desire to affirm
with Inc the truth of this cOmmunica-
ton. Signed,

THE ARMY is HAPPY.
Salyationists Celebrating With
Great GuSto.

Another large crowd attended the
monster jubilee meeting" of the Sal
vation Army at Market hall last evening,
anxious to see any fun that was going
on; and no one was disappointed, for the
whole proceedings partook largely of
the nature OF circus, and
big circus at that. 'Appy AIRY,
with dirty silk handkerchief
thrown loosely around his neck, and
Brig. Maj. Vans led the evening and
by their weird and wild antics re-
minded one forcibly of 4 couple of low
comedians. After the alleged band had
played two or three Theatre ComiQue
tunes the fun began: Apply AIRY, his
coarse red face shining like a locomO-
tive headlight, executed a few double
clog steps on the stage, and
addressing the audience in his
own peculiar manner, requested
them TO sing song, the tune of which
was similar to Il Had Fifteen Dollars
in My Inside Pocket" The audience
sang, or rather some of it did, but a
larger number remained silent or Missed
slightly. Next the true son of the great
God, clad in flaming red shirt and
having the face of al anarchist, jumped
up, and made the somewhat startling
assertion that he was true son OF
God" and that he felt sorry for the
poor. miserable sinners down in the au-
dience who were groVeling in the dust,
and ready to do the DEVILS bidding.
This red-Shirted individual, who an
Swered to the name of Johnson, con-
tinued with lot of rot that
was as absurd as it was sacrilegious.
Il was Il sinner" said he, but not as
big sinner as some of you are. But
now | am saved, and am going straight
to heaven. while you miserable sinners
are going down to perdition. Join the
army and be saved" But saving the
air with his arms was hard work, and
he soon gave up. Apply AIRY again
came to the front, smiling like sue
ceSsful prize fighter, and tried to start
song. 1t would not work, so he sang, or
rather tried To sing, it himself. In this
way the evening was spent. Tonight
there will be Il monster celebration"
and banquet.

The new First Congregational church
i'll Southeast Minneapolis was opened
for service for the first time yesterday
morning, and there was large audience
in attendance, every seat being filled to
its utmost capacity. The church was to
have been dedicated, but owing to the
big organ not being completed the cere-
mony was postponed for two weeks.
The church is one of the handsomest in
the city and is finished in the highest
style of art. The body of the church is
nicely carpeted, and the floor slopes
gradually toward the pulpit, which is
in the southeast corner. The pews all
focus toward the pulpit, making it an
large audience. The windows are of
stained glass and present handsome

n City Deer Hunt.

The Eighth ward was edited yesterday
by the spectacle of deer hunt. A pet
fawn belonging to Elder Stewart broke
out of his park and wondered up Hen
nepin avenue. 1t was at once pursued
by dogs, but after an exciting race up
the avenue it diStanced them as badly
as the GLOBE did the Tribune and
Journal at the NOrmanna fair. But
new relays of CANNES appeared, and
finally the gaZelle was Overhauled and
dragged down. At Blaisdell and Lake
streets party of men chased the dogs
off, but the pretty animal was badly
mangled, and knife was drawn across
its throat to end its sufferingS.

opening prices were May $3.50 June SEC,

The corn market puzzled even the pro-
fessionals today. Prices opened &c to &c

wheat. Afterward May sold at 6074c; June

very suddenly, a great quantity for sale
