SAVE The LAKE.

The statement made by Superintend-
ent of Parks ESTERBRooK relative to
the rapid change that is taking place in
the level of Lake Como merits serious
consideration. In the. ten years from
1876 to 1856 the water surface of the
lake fell about three and one-half feet,
and in 1887 it fell nearly two and one
half feet more. At the present mo-
ment, Notwithstanding the abundant
rains of the early part of the season,
which caused temporary rise of foot.
the lake level is about six feet lower
than it was in 1916, and its area is re-
duced one-half. These figures are start
ling and significant. They mean that at
the present rate of decrease Lake
Como, in a comparatively few years,
will have totally disappeared. The
cause for all this is of course evident.
During the last two years vast public
improvements have been going on in
that vicinity, and the old sources of
water supply have been cut off and
wiped out of existence. Unless 4 new
source of supply be found, the fate of
the lake is certain. That this new sup
ply must be artificial is evident. as is
also the fact that it must be furnished
by the city.
1t remains to be determined how this
can best be done, and that is the queS
ton that now confrOnts the city. But
there should be no unnecessary delay
in determining what is best to be done.
The matter is important, for the reason
that the obliteration of Lake Como
would be an irreparable loss to st. Paul.
Not only would it depreciate property
values in that part of the city, but it
would forever mar the beauty and SYM
metry of Como Park, spot which pro-
misses in the future to be the chief pride
of our park system.
The board of park commissioners has
considered the matter. and is in favor
of taking early steps to increase the
water supply of the lake: but on the
other hand. it declares that it will do
nothing in that direction until the own
ers of abutting property have first ded-
icated suitable driveway around the
shore. Whether there is any immediate
prospect of this demand being complied
Will ny bhC piOptilS OhASto COHCCIiGu
the GLOBE is not advised, but in the in
terest of the public we trust there will
be no disposition on the part of any one
to throw obstacles in the way of pre-
serving the lake. 1t is a case where pri-
vate interests should not be allowed to
stand i'll the way of public necessity.
-
THE GLOBE begS leave to call Mr..
BIAINE'S attention to the fact that
Postmaster General DON NJ. DICKINSON
MIR. B. may remember the name
made a few eytempore remarks at
Grand Rapids last evening. The
GLOBE would further take the liberty
to suggest to Mr.. BLAINE that he defer
a perusal of Mr.. DICKINsoN's remarks
until tomorrow. as otherwise he may
find himself unable to envelop himself
i'll that sweet serenity of spirit that
every truly good man ought to put on
every Sabbath morning along with his
boiled linen. All. yes. It's strange
world, and it doesn't pay to NEEDLE

A FRIGHTENED MONSTER,
The Whitechapel Fiend Has Gone Out
of Business for the Present.
POLICE ARE ON THE ALERT.
Extraordinary Measures Taken by Fly
Cops and Volunteers for the Muir
derer's Detection.
Special Cable to the Globe.

LONDON, Oct. 27.-As it daily becomes
more evident that the Whitechapel
murderer has gone out of business, the
belief is spreading that he was, after all,
not nearly so crazy as most of the theO-
rists declared him to be, and the butch.
cries are consequently stripped of half
their interest In the minds of the more
morbid portion of London's horri-
fed Inhabitants by the convic-
ton that the slayer was merely
a plain, everyday brute, not
unlike thousands of others that infest
the locality in which the killing was
done. 1t IS now pretty certain that de-
spite the declaration of war against
prostitutes chalked upon a shutter by
the murderer, and the bravado exhib-
tied by ''Jaek the Ripper in his let
rand postal card to the Central News.
the monster had become frightened at
the magnitude of the police and vOlun-
teer arrangements for his detection, and
has
SUSPENDED HIS HORRIBLE WORK

still more certain that whatever NAV be

ent arrangements for apprehending the
murderer, should he resume his work.
are most complete. The vigilance of
the metropolitan department.. aroused
to the utmost by the taunts of the press
and the gibes of the populace, has
not been relaxed one whit in the
interval since the last butchery, though
the police themselves are strong Ill the
t,nl of hot 0f fbr,
er's work is final. The volunteer vigil
lance committees are as alert as ever,
and the bloOdhounds are kept at what
is regarded is the proper degree of
ferOcity. just as if the slayer were ex-
pected to resume his butcheries imme-
diately. How long these extraordinary
measures will last, of course no one can
tell, but the opinion is growing that
they have already become useless.

McALLISTER'S MIND.
The Famous Attorney of Frisco Is
Not Ill or Insane, as Reported.

MOI Hi or insane, as reported.
NEW YORK, Oct. 27.-Hall McAllis-
ter, who has been the leader of the San
Francisco bar for many years, is in this
city on his way home from Europe.
Last spring his physician. finding that
he was suffering from nervous prostra-
ton, advised him to give up business
entirely for six months or
year and go abroad. He spent
several months at Brussels and Ajx-la-
Chapelle, taking the chalybeate waters,
by which he was greatly benefited. He
reached this city ten days ago. and has
since then been at the house of his
son-in-law, Francis Ii. NewlandS, No.
Ii Gramercy park. A dispatch from
San Francisco says that sensational
story has been published there to the
effect that Mr.. McAlliSter had lost his
mind and that he was dying. In rela-
ton to this his brother, Ward McAllis-
ter. said to a reporter last evening:
Ibis mind is as clear as it ever was,and
his Judgment is sound. | have been his
constant companion since he reached
this city. While his intellect is unim-
paired his frame is feeble. He is in his
siXty-third year. He starts for San
Francisco with his son, Hall McAllis-
ter, Jr., next Sunday. He hopes within
six months, with proper rest and re-
pose, to be able to return to the prac-
tice of his profession, but he
is still in delicate con-
dition. He has no organic disease, but
suffers simply from nervous prostration.
| can not tell how this may result. but
there is no danger of his mind giving
way. He walked with me yesterday
from Gramerey park to the Grand Cen
trail station, and secured his drawing
room section, and bought his tickets for
San Francisco. He has ridden down to
Wall street every day since he arrived
here. He walks out daily

Merriam. :
From Yesterdays Pioneer Press. !
ST. PAUL. Oct. 26.-To the Editor:
notice in your paper of to-day speech
made by Candidate William Il. Mer-
riam. at political meeting last even
ing, in which, after a welcomed lau-
iatien of the party to which he belongs,
ne winds up by saying:
Looking back over the years since 1860, I
do not think that any fair minded man, can
say that the government OF This state has not
heeri properly administered. We have ii state

nor Minnesota has ever had.

sofa has ever had." did everything in
his power personally, as well as Off
cially. to prevent the state from rushing
into an unwise and premature issue of
bonds to aid in the construction of rail-
roads, for which issue a vast majority
of. the people voted, irrespective of
party, and for which, therefore, the
Democracy was no more responsible
than was the Republican party. The
governor simply obeyed the mandate of
the voters on the issue of the bonds, and
his ruling, which would have saved the
credit of the state, was reversed by the
highest legal tribunal, On the ground
that its stringency was not warranted
by the constitutional amendment
adopted by the people. Before my
young censor makes other mistakes of a
like tenor he had better remain in ,Jer-
icho until his beard be grown. Respect

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 27.-The whal-

day. She reports the following thirteen
whalers in the ice, with little pro aspects

whalers Thrasher and j. A. Freeman

not thought, at the time the Rowland
left Fox Island, that they would not
reach them before they were broken up.
The Rowland reports that the catch of
the entire whaling fleet up to month
ago was 122, the greater number OF
which were taken by the vessels now
fast in the ice.

THE RIGHTS OF TEsTAToRs,

appreciation on the opinion rendered by
Judge LAWRENCE the other day, uphold
ing the will of SAMUEL J. Tu.DEN. And
this not only because Of the public ben
eft that will result should the will be
declared valid, but because of excellent
common sense principles on which
Judge LAWRENCE bases his decision.
This idea is becoming altogether too
common among the people at large that.
provided the services OF a smart enough
lawyer are secured, the purpose and i'll

result is that few wills ever Pass
