filming his musical knowledge to the

not be confined to the text books, but
should be impressed with the duty of
finding historical truth for b Unset

writers offer him. The method should

the building cannot be occupied for

A NEW JERSEY man lately willed
HENRY GEORGE $4,000 to be used in
disseminating his free land theory. The
chancellor undertook to defeat the leg
acy on the ground that it was opposed
to the law of the land. Happily the SUI
preme court of the state took more
rational view and reversed the decision.
If the other view were the rule, it would
not give much chance for change of
laws, as reforms would be ruled cut.
Men have perfect legal right to give
money TO sustain wrong theories. 1t
may be unWise, but it is their privilege.

A Disastrous Midnight Fire on the
West Side.

Fire was discovered shortly after IL
o'clock this morning in the second story
of the new Humboldt school building,
at the corner of DeloS street and Liv-

burning iercely when first noticed, and
before the arrival of the department,
had eaten its way to the story above.
Both the Second and third stories and
the mansard roof were badly damaged,
entailing total loss of between $4,000
and 8, 600, The origin of the fire could
not be positively ascertained, but it is
supposed to have started from the fur

st. PauPs In this Issue OF the
GLOBE will be found
Water Supply. an exhaustive article
descriptive of st.
Paul's water supply system. and of the
improvements now being made. as well
as those which are contemplated in the
future. Persons who dread water
famine will have their fears relieved.
If there is one thing more than another
of which st. Paul can boast, il is its mag
nificent water works system and its uil-
failing supply of the purest water that
ever sweetened human lips. The
healthfulness of the city can never be
discounted, because we have the best
water supply and the best drainage of
any city III the world. Within week
the new pump will be in operation
which will add Rice lake to our water
system and more than double the present
supply. 1t is shown in the GLOBES
article how by reasonable outlay,
if the necessity should ever arise for it,
the waters of Mile Laos and of the
ST. CrO'x and mississippi rivers could
&c made tributary to our water system,
so that there could be no drOuth within
the range of possibility which could
create a water famine in st. Paul. If
the windows of heaven should be closed
for the space of five years, and not
drop of rain fall in all that time, the
present supply could not I've exhausted.
We are in that happy condition but few
cities enjoy. of being proof against
water famine. More than that. with
the additional supply we will get from
Rice lake, at cost of less than $4,000.
we will have water enough to supply a
city of over half million population.
God has been good to Minnesota in the
supply of pure water. fertile land, and
health-giving climate. And now He
is blessing the state with the best popu-
latiOn that ever inhabited His fairest
acres.

THE NEW PROMISED LAND.

1t is difficult for Eastern people,
says the Boston Journal, to ade-
quately appreciate the intense desire
which characterizes the hundreds
and thousands of boomers" who,
after waiting many weary months
for Oklahoma to be opened to them,
are now INDUCING in exuberant de-
monstrations at the announcement
that on April % next, the barriers
of scouts and soldiers which have
hedged the country round about
will be removed, and that they can
lawfully enter the promised land.
The efforts Of the "boomers" to get
into Oklahoma in spite of laws and
sentinels have been almost as fierce
and feverish as the rush to
the gold mines of California. And
yet The new region is described as a
purely agricultural country, Offering
no riches except those which reward
the hard and patient labor of the
husbandmen. The secret of the
eagerness with which The opening of
the new territory has been looked
for is to be explained by the popu-
lar impression that the region is a
kind of Garden of Eden Of fertility
a very gem among all the bounte-
Gus acres of tie West. Few des-
> criptions of the soil and climate
have reached the Eastern seaboard,
but such as we have had all agree
that the Oklahoma country is indeed
choice and favored area, adapted
to sustain large and prosperous
population. The climate is charac-
terized as happy medium between
the two extremes; the sell is said to
possess an unparalleled fertility, and
10 be suited for the production of
corn and cotton. But what has
probably had most to do with
spreading the reputation of the
region is It's abundant timber and
its many rivers, lakes and springs
a consideration which is sure to have
immense weight with settlers accus-
toned to the treeless, arid aspect of
SO much of the Western country.
To many of the "boomers," Okla
homa, with its level prairies diversi-
fed with oaks, clms and walnuts, as
well as tees of less valuable species,
and its frequent water courses, has
been revelation. In an incredibly
short time, measured by our eastern
standards, the whole inviting region
will be filled up with immigrants,
aud the prairie land and valleys
which have been SO long shut
against the white man will be divid-
ed into busy farms and dotted With
