Young's place of business in Minneap-
oils, made arrangements to burglarize
safe belonging to man named Mans
ficssII, business man in said city Of
Minneapolis. By the terms OF the agree
ment aftiant was to procure the
services of a man who would commit
the burglary. Affiant says he was given
to understand by the said De Yonng
and Harvey that Police Commissioner
Guile was fright" which meant that
he was concerned in and would favor
thieving aspirations, and Af1iant further
says that he has frequently seen said
Guile in the business place of the said
De Young and affiant says he was as
sured by the said Harvey that said
Guile was acquainted with and favor
able to thieying, and that there
would be no trouble in the event
OF an arrest of the affiant. Affiant says
that in the month of June four bolts of
cloth were taken from store in st.
Paul and were left at the residence of

of many of the thieves who boarded
with him through the said De Young,
and through the connivance of De
Young, that he might receive the goods
they stole and be able to give them no
tice of intended arrest from information
given by said Capt. Harvey.
Affiant says that at the time of the
conversation in the back room of De
Young's place of business in regard to
the burglary of the safe belonging to
the said Mansfield, it was mentioned
that the said Capt. Harvey was very
anxious to procure certain watches
known as ''times," Or stop watches, and
several hundred collars worth of dia-
monds, supposed to be in the safe of the

has been good deal of feeling engen-

While the fire department was en-
gagged IN subduing the flames in the
White House restaurant the alarm
sounded from the North side, and a
part of the force was forced to leave the

"HAPPY IS THE VAC"
Who Gets to the Municipal Play
House.

A communication from Judges Emery
and Mahoney, of the municipal court,
in reference to the workhouse, was re-

vigorous, and at times humorous, is was
urged that the council purchase a
quantity of wood, the smOre knotty and
jagged the better" that the convicts at
the workhouse may be instructed in the
art OF manipulating the municipal buck
saw during the eight hours at which the
law requires them to be confined at hard
labor each day. "The product could be
utilized in the public institutions of the
city, OF suitable quantity of rock De
provided, and the labor of the criminals
be used in reducing it to the proper size

state that the wOrkhouse is regarded by

haven from the vicissitudes of the cold,

Another communication was received

the plea of not guilty of assault in the

"Oh, l am feeling all right now" re-

county jail, as he walked into the Jail
office yesterday afternoon, and an
nounced that he was ready to go to
work again.
.Say, old man, he continued, turn

when Barrett and the others made the
attack on me. If you had rushed in, as
they expected you would, we would
have both been done up, and a whole

Mr.. Riley has not yet entirely re-
covered from the hard usage he re-
ceived from the prisoners, and looks
somewhat pale. He says he has no fears
of another attack being made on him.

BEGINNING YOUNG.
A Gang of Boy Burglars Arrested
in South Minneapolis.

Charles Mcclure, Alvin Ness, John
Barnes, Mike Kirby and Peter Quealy,
a quartette of bad South town boys,
were before Judge Mahoney yesterday
on a charge of attempted burglary, and,
after hearing the testimony, his honor
found it advisable to hold the lads to
the grand jury. The officer who made
the arrest told how the boys had been
caught in the act of trying to force an
entrance to August Krumric's store, on
Franlin and Third avenue south, and
had been found to have glass cutters,
iimmies and weapons in their posses
sion. The lads are from nine to twelve
years of age, and some of them OF good
family. They had been reading dime
novels.

Mitchell May Make 1t H. o. T. for
the s, p. &, A.


The case Of the state against Henry
Mitchell, the hack driver, charged with
cruelty to animals. was nolled yester-
day by the county attorney. There is
something of history to this case, as
told by the persons interested in it. 1t
seems that Mitchell has begun civil suit
against the president of the Society for
the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals to
recover damages for false inprisonment,
Mitchell having been arrested ON a
charge of whipping his horses in front
of the Nicollet house last summer. To
get back at Mitchell the president and
the attorney of the society had Mitchell
indicted, and when Mitchell withdrew
his suit for damages the society refused
to prosecute, and the case was dis
missed. At the time of the alleged
whipping the grand jury refused to find
an Indictment, but the last grand jury
did. His attorney claims that Mitch
now has two good cases against the So
cietV.

Is the Atlantic Coast sinkine2

A report of the state geologist Of New
Jersey has called attention very gener-
ally to the sea coast line of that state.
It is we'll known to the old habitues of
the Jersey seaside resorts that the water
in many places scents to be becoming
deeper and deeper each year, and bath
ing more dangerous. It is true that at a
few points the land has built out, and
houses formerly on the water are now
many yards inland, but these instances
are exceptional.
At Asbury Park, at Atlantic City, at
Cape May the encroachments Of the sea
are becoming alarming. At Long Branch
and Atlantic City the board sidewalks
are forced back yearly. Since 1904 the
fertile red soil Of Jersey has crumbled
into the sea at Cape May at the rate of
nineteen feet year. At many places
along the coast, where fertile fields were
within the memory of this generation,
are now only salt marshes. In some
places stumps of trees have been found
four feet under water, and on tho farm
of Capt. Hildreth corduroy road was
found two feet under the surface Of the
salt meadow.
Professor George 81. Cook, the state
geologist, has examined the coast very

River Floods.

DR.. Felix L. Oswald expresses, in the
August Lippincott, the conviction that
the whole earth is rapidly going to the
''demnition bowwows," on account of
the constantly increasing devastations
of river floods. The cause of the river
floods is the destruction of the hillside
forests along the shores of the rivers.
As long as the river hills are lined with
trees, the soil beneath is soft and spongy.
The leaves, living and dead, catch the
rain and hold it gently to promote the
growth of vegetation. The trees once
cut off, the rainfall rushes down the
hillsides in the spring floods, washing
CHASTITY, yawning gullies, and pouring
headlong into the river, causing de-
structive and widespread floods. The
soil of the hills is washed off, leaving
them barren and rocky. The sand and
soil rush into the roaring river and cause
it to become more and more shallow, to
make higher floods.
In the torrid summer days, when the
moisture that should have remained in
the soil is most needed, the earth is hot
and parched as desert. So southwestern
Asia, northern Africa and southern Eu-
rope, once the most fertile regions on the
globe, supporting teeming millions of
people, have become sandy barrens, SIM
ply through cutting off the trees from
the highlands along the water courses.
And so the whole United States will be-
come like Arizona in time, unless the
murderous tree stripping policy is
stopped. The only way to stop the floods
and reclaim the deserts is to replant the
trees and let them stand.

1S76-1S92.

With an eye to a worlds fair in 1892,
The American Economist has prepared
some figures on the growth of the Unit
ed States since the other fair in 1876 that
will make the most sanguine Americans
open their eyes.
We thought the exposition of 1876 was
something worth while. But with the
added wealth, population and experience
that have como to US since then we can
we'll make the exhibition of 1892 as great
as The Economist predicts it will be.
That paper says;
1t is evident that with the effort which made
the centennial exposition of 1876 great success
the proposed exposition of 1892 could easily be
made in it's extent, in the variety and novelty of
its exhibits in its usefulness for public education,
in its stimulating influence upon industrial enter
prise and for the promotion of International
trade an undertaking of unparalleled Importance
vailed interest and attractiveness to foreign ma
tons; an undertaking surprising in grandeur
and beneficent influences any other which the
world has seen

The commission to induce the Indians
at Rosebud agency to sign the treaty
giving up their lands witnessed a scene
unprecedented in the history Of the fierce
and untamed Sioux. A young brave
who had attended school took a copy of
the treaty and read 1t to the Indians in
their own tongue. These were twenty
five years ago among the worst Of the
wild Indians. It seemed as If civiliza-
ton could make no Roadway among
them. Yet now many of them live quietly
on farms, and can read and write. The
younger, more civilized Indians are in
favor of signing the treaty. It is the
wild, old ones who are sullen and I'M
manageable.
