MIR. WARNER AND THE WEST.

CHARLES DUDLEY WARNER, who re-
Gently visited st. Paul, and was duly
impressed with the wonderland of the
Northwest, has got himself into hot
water of decidedly elevated tempera-
lure in Chicago. 1t seems that Mr..
WARNER, having been entertained to
the best of Chicago's ability, gra-
eiously and innocently remarked
that in dinner giving Chicago
had reached a plane of refinement
that is not surpassed in New York.
Chicago, refusing to accept the compli-
ment in the same gracious spirit, now
wakes wroth and wants to know why
Mr.. WARNER should not have expected
the same refinement to exist in Chicago
as obtains in New York. She indig-
nantly demands if he was under the
impression that in Chicago the knife
was given the place of the fork at the
festal board, and makes several other
more or less heated inquiries.
Although we have it from those who
are not prejudiced through looking at
things from the Chicago view of the
proper construction of etiquette,
table and otherwise, that Mr.. WARNER
might easily have found reason for be-
lieving that the Chicago and New
York standards of refinement are
widely divergent, nevertheless we
are constrained to believe that there is a
possibility of Mr.. WARNER having
made mistake. common among good
many other Eastern people, who should
be better informed regarding the West.
AS matter of fact, there is as much
culture, refinement, and what our
French friends call savOir faire to be
found in the Western cities i'm proper
ton to the population as in the Eastern
cities.
1t is rare indeed, keeping in view the
extreme youth of even the oldest West
ern city, that an inhabitant over the age
of forty years has been born within its
limits. Either the parents or the citi-
zen himself or herself, as the case may
be, came from the East. AS large a
proportion of them as in the present
day were born in homes were culture
and refinement obtained. 1t would
then be strange indeed if they did not
bring these gentler qualities with them
to their Western homes and instill them
into their children. The West has
wealth, great deal of it, and it knows
how to use it. AS much can not be said
for good many millionaires in his be-
loved New YOrk-that, we have no
doubt, Mr.. WARNER will frankly admit.

The sparrows Reyensed.

A strange fight. was witnessed by a
crowd on Sixth avenue, New York. the
other day. AT an early hour dirty
looking cat, that had once been white.

gutter, watching for prey or garbage,
when suddenly sparrow flew
down like a shot from gun,
alighted moment on pussy's head,
made peck at its eyes and re-
treated. Puss made a slight resistance,
but seemed daZed. Instantly sparrows
flew from all quarters and attacked the
cat, generally about the eyes. She, or
he, defended well for a while, but finally
sucoumbed to numbers and rolled over.
The sparrows fought fiercely, and ten
minutes later puss was dead. When
the sparrOws had witnessed the cats

PRIMITIVE CHRISTIANITY.

In explanation of his new departure,
Rev. SAM SMITH told his congregation
at the opera house yesterday that his
sole aim was to get back to first prin-
cipleS, and to plant himself upon the
ground where the apostles stood in the
infancy of the Christian church. 1t
sounds little singular to hear minis
ter vindicate his withdrawal from the
Methodist church Oh such groundS-a
church which is popularity supposed to
possess the most primitive form of gov
eminent of all the Protestant denomi-
nations, and which came into exiS-
tence as a protest against Journalism.
The GLOBE does not propose to become
a party to the quarrel between Mr..
SMITH and his parent church, nor does
1t undertake to say how much cause the
dissenting minister has for his action.
Those are things which do not pertain
to secular journalism, and we are con-
tent to leave them where they properly
belong.
But we do say most frankly that we
fail to observe in this new religious
movement any evidences of getting
back to first principles. When the
mind runs back to apostolic
days and recalls the experiences
of the faithful little band of min
lsterial workers who went out
into all the world in obedience to the
divine mandate and preached the Cos
pei to every creature, we fail to find
single instance of where JOHN or old
SIMON PETER, or even PAUL rented a
S2OO.O0 opera house to preach i'm or
asked stated salary running up into
the thousands before they would agree
to break the bread of life to the starving
multitude. On the contrary, they put
sandals on their feet, took staff in
their hand, and with empty purses went
out into the highways and along the
dusty roads and preached the gospel to
whoever would give ear to the divine
message. That was ministerial work In
the primitive days of Christianity. We
do not undertake to say that the changes
In the times and in the condition of this
worlds affairs do not justify the
changes which have taken place in the
methods of ministerial work since the
uoyo WiiCH AUlI anu IETER WeUC OUT
as circuit walkers. Nor do we insist
that there is any necessity for going
back to these primitive methods. The
plan of church work to-day is probably
better suited to the existing condition of
affairs than the plan pursued by the
apostles. 1t is not altogether improb-
able that if PAUL were living IN
earth he would accept the pastorate
of some uptown church and would
draw his salary of five OF ten thousand
dollars year with just as good a con-
science as when he used to make tents
for living. 1t is also possible that if
SIMON PETER were alive he would be
content to enjoy the splendors of
bishops palace and be just as consist
ent Christian as he was when living
in that humble tenement in Jerusalem,
where his wife lay sick of fever. The
point we are making is that when you
talk about going back to first principles
and the primitive methods of the Chris
tan church the Salvation Army people
are the only ones that are in the middle
of the road.

CHICAGo's NATURAL GAS
Breaks Out in an Artesian Well at
the Leland.

CHICAGO, Jan. S.-Natural gas has
broken out a second place in Chicago,
this time within the business portion of
the city. The water fountain in the
Leland hotel, it was established to-day,
is sending forth volumes of the infam-
mable stuff. The fountain is supplied
by an artesian well, which was sunk in
the cellar of the hotel to a depth
of 125 feet. Two days ago this
fountain ceased it's usual steady flow
and has since sputtered badly. To-day
the hotel engineer diagnosed the case
as one of natural gas, and with the help
of rOughly-cOnstructed apparatus
proved his correctness by turning the
cause of the Sputtering into a fame
eight inches long. Like Cookies
brewery, where natural gas was first
discovered in Chicago about two weeks
ago, the Leland hotel is close to the
lake shore. The hotel is two miles dis
tant from the brewery.

ALLIANCE, o., Jan. S.-Some months
ago this city voted in favor of prohibit
ton. Soon all the saloons were turned
into restaurants, and shot soup" signs
became conspicuous. 1t also became
evident that liquor selling had not been
diminished to any alarming extent.
Two weeks ago there arrived here a
gentle-lOOking man, who registered
as A. M. Erwin, of Chicago.
He represented himself as the
agent of steam laundry and wanted to
start branch in this city. He was
jOvial fellow and soon worked his way
in among the boys. Occasionally he
would get dry and the son of promi-
nent hOtelkeeper would accompany him
to one of the ''reStaurantS," where his
wants would be supplied, After he had
sampled the drinks at all the restau-
rants he caused warrants to be issued
for the keepers of the places. He was

A DOUBTFUL STATE.

A jealous Missouri contemporary hav-
ing referred, in passing, to the fact that
the Republicans need not be too sure of
victory in Massachusetts next year, oar
esteemed and able contemporary, the
Boston Herald, which has reputation
second TO none for clearsightedness, de-
clares that the remark is indeed true,
and that it might be carried still further,
even to the extent of asserting that if
Mr.. BLAINE is again the Republican
candidate it is very likely the state will
declare in favor of Mr.. CLEVELAND.
But for the BUTLER craze, precisely
that result would have happened in 1884

PFEFFER MILNE.
The Great Second Baseman Will
Remain With Chicago.

SAN FRANCISCO Jan. Sired Pfeffer
will start for Chicago Wednesday and
will play with the Chicago nine this
year. He states that he has not quite
settled his difference with Spalding, and
evidently is disinclined to admit that he
has had to accede to the latter's terms.
A week ago he wrote to Spalding setting
forth his idea of salary, etc. He ex.
pected an answer yesterday, but the
reply did not arrive. He then an.
nOunced that he would start for Chicago
tomorrow. The Eastern players here
who have been expecting engagement.
for next season have found it to their
disadvantage to be so far from base ball
headquarters. and the suddenness with
which some of them have left for home
is thought here to indicate that they are
as eager to come to terms as some OF the
managers are to sign them. The East
ern men here say that everything is
settled between Spalding and Pfeffer,
but the latter wants tU let himself down
as easy as possible and will not openly
admit that he has fallen into line. He
refuses to say what salary he is to re-
ceiYe.

the smaller middle class, as far as fort
unes are concerned, is becoming the
great central body of the community,
and is continually being increased both
from above and from below. He points
out that during the last decade there
has been a noticeable increase in the
number of moderate fortunes, coupled
with decrease in large fortunes ac-
cumulated in few hands. A similar
conclusion is drawn from the returns of
the capital of registered companies, of
dwelling houses and of savings banks.

Dethroning the Satrap.

PhlIaueIphla Times.
From st. Paul comes the good news
that by decision of the state railroad
commission any passenger may have
the top berth of sleeping car closed
unless needed for actual occupancy.
This is step in the right direction and
will do much to curtail the power of the
great American Satrap, the colOred
porter. The West, with its lack of rev.
erence for even the most sacred things,
is responsible for this blow to privi-
legged order, and thus little by little the
true aristOcracy of our country may I'M
timely perish.

Armory Burned.

DETROIT, Jan. s.-The Detroit In
fantry armory burned this evening. 1t
was probably the handsomest armory
owned by any individual company in
the country. The assembly room had
just been handsomely decorated for a
ball to be given by the Knights Templar
reception on Thursday night. and
for the reception to the governor
of the state given annually by the
Light guard. All the flags and bunting
in town were there. The uniforms and
muskets were untouched by fire, but
badly damaged by smoke and water.
The total loss will be $4,000 to SIS, 900.

heavy rains of the past few days that
this afternoon it commenced overflow

They were perfectly docile. the children

Jennie was playing with them, when
one of the dogs, becoming cross, fast
ened his teeth in her arm. Her screams

Why Republicans Want a Surplus.

Mount Peasant (lo.) Free Press.
The skill of Republicans in handling
SURPRISES is equal to that of the doctor
that was ''hades on fits" 1t is altogether
a needless outlay of labor for Senator
Sherman to prove that it was all owing
to President Cleveland's management
that we now have surplus. If Repub-
licans had had it their way, even during
the last session of congress, there would
have been no surplus to worry over. In
Republican Iowa we have no surplus to
trouble US. Here the interesting prob
lem is how to deal with deficits, and
how to make them greater every year
without letting the people know it.
