A Step-Mother Appreciated.

Baltimore Sun.
A recent Chinese emperor, in an
nouncing the demise of his step-mother,
sent the following communication to
his ministers: 1--WE have attended her
majesty since we received the throne,
and have cherished her for twenty-nine
years. We have seen that in her de-
clining days she had every comfort. and
that she had passed the age of eighty,
for which our heart was happy and
calm, and we encouraged ourselves that
she would happily add one year to an
other unit. she enjoyed the felicity of
seeing century. Lately, on the
nineteenth day of the moon, she
took an airing in the garden
and returned to her palace. We
daily went to inquire concerning her
health. But. contrary to all anticipa-
tions, her ailments daily increased in
violence, and the oath, in the middle of
the forenoon, she drove the fairy chariot
and went the long Journey Our grief
broke out in long lamentations, for we
are greatly afflicted. We humbly
brought to mind that since the holy
empress, 'Filial Pure Bright (his only
mOther) left this world to take the up
ward journey we have been greatly in
debted to her Imperial Majesty Tahing
for her Astounding kindness and over
shadOwing favor. We have been made
happy while attending to her behests,
as men are rejoiced by the sun which
prOlOngs their lives; but now we can
never again look upon her affectionate
cOuntenance. Our grief cannot easily be
aSSuaged."

HOTEL GOSSIP.

The various hotels presented some
what livelier appearance last evening
than they have for some days past, OW-
ing to the raising of the snow blockade
and the more frequent running of
trains. A large percentage of the guests
were from points within radius of a
few hundred miles. 1t was amusing to
see small crowds collect in different
perienceS, Some sounded very much
like fairy tales, to be sure, but every
thing went, so glad were the belated
travellers to get back to civilization
again.
A prominent Republican politician of
Dakota, says the Evening Star, met one
of its reporters at the West hotel yes
terday and the following conversation
enSued:
by the way, have you been observ-
ing Pierce's Dakota edition. lately?"
mo, not particularly"
''Well, it is absolutely notifying to
me to see how it is run. When it started
out it contained good matter, spicy ed
itOrial paragraphs and not less than
four pages of news. 1t was paper
taken alone that I could mail to my
Eastern friends with some inherent
Dakota pride. Here 1 have a copy in
my pocket. Look at it-a regular
'sawed-off.' See, there are one, two,
three, four-fifteen editorial paragraphs
signed Sc. A. P.'' Thirteen relate to a
defense of Pierce from the charges made
by the GLoBE-just as though all we
Republicans were stuck on Pierce and
cared anything about him. Now am
not at all stuck on Pierce, as you know,
but don't like to see Democratic pa
per like the GLOBE getting away with
the old, reliable Pioneer Press. But we
must admit that the GLOBES Dakota
edition is far ahead OF Pierce's paper"
II understand that Pierce is not re-
sponsible for that. He wants to make a
better showing, but is restricted by the
st. Paul Office"
THAT may be, but there certainly is
no excuse for him in writing a column
or two every week of personal putfs
about himself. Let him give us live
Dakota news"

WORSHIP AT THE GRAND.
Until the Chapel of the Redeemer
Can Be Rebuilt.


The trustees of the Church Of the Re-
deemer met yesterday afternoon at the
office of Gen. Washburn to decide where
the society should hold services until its
burned eGifice shall be restored. Ten
ders were received from the Plymouth,
First Unitarian and other churches and
were thankfully acknowledged. but it
was decided to lease the Grand opera
house for the present. Manager Conk-
lin was present and arrangements
made. The matter of rebuilding was
canvassed. informally, and while no
action was taken the sentiment was in
favor of rebuiling as soon as the weather
will permit.
The loss was about as stated in yes
terday'S GLOBE, and will be covered, it
is thought, by $4,000. The main walls
seem to be in fair condition and unhurt
by the flames, and the structure can be
readily rebuilt. The ruins were visited
by large crowds yesterday. and the spec
tacle was we'll worth seeing. The large
masses of ice, piled SO thick upon the
walls. seemed to protect them from the
heat. Several photographers were on
the scene, and pictures will be out in a
few days. A bevy of very small boys,
undeterred by fear of falling walls, had
constructed a tobOggan slide OH the
interior and were enjoying themselves
to their hearts content until driven out
bV the notice.

A PLEA FOR EQUALITY.
A Correspondent Contends That
Tim Barrett Would Not Have
Been Convicted If He Had Been
a Rich Man.

A Correspondent CONTENDS InaC
Tim Barrett Would Not Have
Been Convicted If He Had Been
Rich Man.
To the Editor of the Globe.
The court that sentenced Tim Barrett
to be hanged held in his hand the alter
native of life Imprisonment, yet his
honor refused to exercise the latter.
There was ample ground to take advan-
tage of the exceptional clause of the
statute. / assert that to hang fellow
citizen on the testimony of an intormer
is repugnant to justice. Then Mr..
Erwin claimed that Tim was half i'm
beetle. Mr.. Davis said he lacked the
dropping jaw, the wild look and other
posted on hydrophObia. But an imbe-
cile does not always have a dropping
Jaw. In Barrett's case the trouble was
with the public jaw, which was against
him. Tim Barrett is to be hanged be-
cause he is Tim Barrett-a wretched
creature, stepped in ignorance, and ac-
cuSed of minor offenses heretofore. This
has been the sum of his offending. The
jury found him guilty Oh general prin-
cipies. They tried him for alleged Of
lenses committed in Iowa and concluded
that he was bad man; hence they con-
Victed him.
Surprising that Tim Barrett belonged
to one of the so-called first families of
Minnesota; suppose his name was
Adams, and his blue blood reached back
to a fishing schooner in Massachusetts,,
would he be found guilty on Reddy's
testimony? Never! No jury in Mime
sofa would believe the infoTmer; the
Ciceronian eloQuence of the county at
torney would be futile, and Timothy
Adams wOuSt go forth free man.
Barrett had no character; no infential

friends to take the witness stand and
twist their cOnsciences in his behalf,
and the result of this glaringly incOn-
sistent trial is that his name is Dennis.
Law: as administered by courts and
luries in this country, is farce. A
hIgh-toned offender is all right, but the
lower strata feel the weight of the
states paw. Take the case of Harper,
the Fidelity bank wrecker. He lives in
the penitentiary like lord; his NOUS
tache is as sacred as the protected in
duStries of America. But the poor
tramp that steals coat to shelter him
from the biting frost of winter is shaved
and clipped and given prison fare, and
and often kick and cuff i'll the bar
gain. But he is only tramp. Mr..
Harper, like many other great men
now residing in Canada, was a Sunday
school superintendent. It's no wonder
anarchy finds foothold in the United
States, when such proceedings ripen
the soil for it. Away with all this sham,
and treat every person, black and
white, alike. Let justice and equality
prevail, regardless of wealth and posi-
ton, and the fire of discomfort will die
out. Don't pounce upon an unfortunate
fellow being because he happens to fall.
FAIR PLAY.
