SHE WAS OUrWITTED.
A Brace of Dog Catchers Carry
Off Their Victim.

The life of the city dog catcher is not
wholly devoid of excitement. He oc-
casionally has any amount of fun, and
if there are any byStanders present
they are generally highly amused.
There was one of these pleasant little
affairs took place on the corner of Sew
enth avenue south and Washington last
evening. The first assistant dog catcher
had corralled a canine owned by wo-
man whose reputation is not entirely
spotless, when the woman turned on
him and engaged in a rough and tumble
fight after the dog had been put in the
wagon. The battle was waging
fiercely when the boss dog
catcher slipped one of his nooses
over the woman'S head and started off
on a run. Of course the woman fol-
lowed him. She had to, for the wire
around her neck was somewhat tight.
Meantime the first assistant dog catcher
had gathered himself together and had
driven away with the dog. When the
woman returned to the corner, after the
boss dog catcher had removed the moose
from her neck, she realized that she had
been outwitted by two canine captur-
ers, and wall went up from her lips
which stopped passing street car.
Order was finally restored, but the
owner of the dog swears she will make
things warm for him in the sweet by
and-bY.

Of almost inhuman conduct as ply
stefan while attending Mrs. Payne dur
ing the period of her confinement. The
public prints of this city seem almost to
have exhausted the rich vocabulary of
Saxon scOrn and abuse in dealing with
DR.. Barnum. The presumption of in
nOcence, which even corrupt and de-
generate court of law would find itself
obliged to regard, is not thought of, and
an innocent man is held up without a
hearing to the public gaze as not only a
thief but as guilty of malpractice.
When the press so far forgetS the re-
spOnsibility of its exalted, influential
office in civilized society as to assail the
character and reputation of upright
citizens upon the authority of eX parte
statements made by interested persons,
it prostitutes itself, ceases to exert
sanitary influence, and erects
itself into standing menace. True,
our legislature, dealing with the sub
ject of libel, has thrown around the
press almost impregnable defenses;
has said that the hot iron of calumny
may be thrust into mans character,
and that the withdrawing of the instru-
ment of destruction shall itself heal the
wound and obliterate the scar, but l ask
you to put DR.. Barnum rightin the COM
munity where he has lived so long and
where he has repeatedly Impoverished
himself to aid the sick and unfortunate.
When the time comes and we stand
before the proper court, the public will
know the whole truth, will appreciate
the irreperable injury done DIR. Bar
mum. | pledge you my word for one
thing, that the blame shall rest whereit
belongs, and every man and every wOm-
an, too, who has been instrumental in
bringing these charges against an hon
est man, whether they act and speak
for themselves or for organized and
alleged charitable institutions, shall an
swer to DR.. Barnum to the last dollar.
Yours truly, THOMAS j. LIETwICH,
Attorney for. DR.. Barnum.

DEMOCRATIC CITY TICKET.
THE ISSUE is DEFINED.

The issues as between the Democratic
and Republican parties of the county of
Hennepin have already been fully and
clearly defined in the GLOBE. The
issues presented in the city campaign
are just as sharp and decisive, and on
them the battle will be fought. The
Democratic party stands, first:
For local self-gOvernment.
1t believes in permitting the people
of Minneapolis to manage their. own af-
fair and administer their own govern
ment. The Republican party believes
in deprivlng the people of Minneapolis
of this right, ami in carrying to a farmer
legislature the private and municipal
affairs of the city.
How will workingmen vote?
How will all citizens vote?
The Democratic party is pledged to
substitute day work for the contract
system. The day system has been tried
thoroughly and found to be more
economical and in every way better.
The Republican party is pledged to the
old contract system.
How will labor vote?
The Democratic party is pledged to
the shOrt-day system of labor in city
work. The Republican party is pledged
to the old system of ten hours day.
How will labor vote?
These are the issues. Can any one
doubt the result?

CARNIVAL OF BURGLARY.
The Police Would Suppress, but
Officers Give Them Away.

Notwithstanding the repeated asser-
tons of the police that there are no bur
glaries being committed in Minneapolis
at the present time, the fact remains
that one or more are reported nearly
every day, and then suppressed in order
that the lends of justice might not be
defeated The talk that no burglaries
are being committed is good enough a s
far as it goes, but the trouble is that it
does not go far.
Arthur n. Keith. residing at 2206
First avenue south, reported to the pO-
lice Friday afternoon that thieves had
entered his residence while the family
was at dinner and had got away with
some $1,000 worth of jewelry and cloth
ing. The thief evidently visited nearly
all the rooms in the house, and bureau
drawers were pulled out and the con-
tents scattered around, and handker-
chief and WOrk-baSketS overturned and
scattered around.
Thursday evening the residence of
William keegan, at GIG Cedar avenue,
was entered and a small quantity of Jew
elry and money stolen. An attempt
was also made to enter several other
houses in the neighborhood. The work
was evidently done by professionals.
TheftS of robes, harnesses and the
like are reported every day, but the
facts are carefully suppressed, except
in such cases where some one in police
headquarters gives the matter away on
the outside.

YOUR DUTY TO REGISTER.

On Tuesday next the books will be
opened for registration al every precinct
in Minneapolis. 1t is of the highest
Importance that every voter bear one
fact i'll mind-you cannot vote unless
you are registered. There is no swear
ing in on election day under the new
law. Your name must be Oh the regis
tration books or your vote is lost. The
first chance to register will be offered
next Tuesday, and there is every reason
why this important duty should not be
neglected. The change of precincts all
over the city necessitates more time and
will cause trouble and delay in securing
the registration, SO it is best to begin
early.
Register, then, on Tuesday.
After you see that your own name is
on the books, see that your Democratic
neighbours is there and urge him to pre-
vail on his neighbors to turn out. This
is duty every Democrat owes it to his
party to discharge.

THE SPIRIT LAKE HEROINE.
The Relict of the Great Massacre
Now in Minneapolis.

Mrs. Abbie Gardner Sharp has re-
turned to the city, 1712 Linden avenue,
after a summers vacation spent at
Spirit Lake, 10. 1t will be remembered
that Mrs. Sharp figured in thesSpirit
Lake massacre in 1851, passing through
the horrible trial of seeing her father
and mother, brother and sisters butch
cred by the Indians before her eyes,
and herself narrowly escaping death to
be held captive for several years, until
she was ransomed by the state of Min
nesOta. Last winter the Hon. Edmund
Rice succeeded in getting bill before
the house to reimburse Mrs. Sharp to
the amount of 1850, for losses in this
case, but it is still pending in the SEN

TRIED TO RUN THINGS.
A Blood's Experience in "Clean-
ing Out the Place."

ing Out the Place."
About O'Clock this morning a tall,
broad-shOuldered man, pretty well
'corned," to use slang expression, ran
up against police inspector ON Henne-
pin avenue, near Washington avenue.
The mans face was all scratched up and
covered with blood. while from a big
cut on the top of his head the dark-red
blood trickled from under his hat and
dropped merrily onto the bosom of a
new white shirt he was carrying. On
being asked what the matter was the
man said he had been held up on the
steel arch bridge. Under close ques-
tioning he admitted that he had gone
into saloon on Bridge square and at
tempted to run things. The proprietor,
a young man about five feet two inches
and weighing not over 125 pounds, had
demonstrated, and in the struggle which
followed the stranger was badly worst
ed. He appeared to have no hard feel
ings, however, toward the man who
had banged him up, and started for
home saying he had only received what
he deserved.
