Will Not BE Prohated.

/ Probate Judge Morrison yesterday decided
to reject the petition to probate the will of
the late James Il. Burns. The two daughters
have been itigating over the estate for some
time. A deed of the real estate given to one
! of the daughters was set aside by the district
court and new the will leaving the property
to the same person has been refused probate.
1t was shown that during his life Mr. Burns
threw the will in the stove with the intention
OF destroying 1t, but it was taken out and
preserved by one of the daughters.

hard and persistent struggle. Aided by
Z. ID. Kerr and K. p. Cullen, the city
and county physician determined that
st. Paul should possess a municipal
hospital second to none in the country,
and despite opposition from certain
quarters, the hospital commissioners
succeeded in obtaining appropriations
for $4,000 for building a new hospital.
Before the end of the year the build
ings will be finished and ready for oc-
cupancy next spring. A GLOBE repre-
sentative last Thursday inspected the
present hospital building and the build
lngs in course of construction, and was
amazed to find that the matter of erect
ing an adequate city hospital should
have been so long delayed. While ele-
CANT public buildings, bridges and
many Improvements have been forced
ahead in recent years, the hospital work
was sadly neglected. But the lethargy

DELEGATE MONTGOMERY

The recent address delivered by the colored
delegate. Montgomery, before the Constitu-
tional Convention Of Mississippi, is pro
nounced by George William Curtis TO be the
finest that has ever emanated from negro.
/, is in many respects undoubtedly pro-
duction Of great merit, especially in the
tone Of serious and natural dignity which
rams throughout il.
The most common weakness even Of well
educated negroes il not so much pOmpOsity
of expression as initiation and pretentiOus-
ness Of thought, which leave an impression
of immature and unsteady faculties. The
recent speech o. Langston in Washington
was one calculated TO discourage all who
are interested in the elevation Of the moral
and intellectual condition Of the negro, for
IL illustrated with singular aptness the LEAD
ing infrmity Of the race even when 1t has
enjoyed the influences Of a certain degree Of
culture, namely. intempcrateness, child
ish citation, a total lack Of steadincss Of
mind when stimulated by success.
The address of Montgomery is free from
all these defects. 1t is true that he had no
reason to be moved TO excess sy any form
Of personal triumph, but IN appealing to the
sense Of justice Of the members Of the Mis-
sissippi convention, he might easily have
fallen into that exaggerated strain Of senti-
ment which is as typical, under these cir
cumstances, Of the negro as ins0briety IS
when he is aroused by feeling Of elation.
If there were many men Of the stamp of
Montgomery among the colored citizens o.
the south the relations Of the races would
be far more distinguished iorpersonal good
will and respect than at present. 1T Is the
absence Of just such men from the vast
swarm Of the southern negro population
that gives that population so low position
in the general estimation of the white peo-
pie. If the negro race shall exhibit mn abil-
ity In the future 10 produce many individ-
uals of this character, the Southern negro
problem will be shOln If very large pro-
portion Of the most serious difficulties
which il now offers for solution.

TO BENEFIT RICHMOND.

In our endeayors 10 get the Iron and
Steel members from abroad TO visit Rich.
mond, we must not forget the American
Mechanical Engineers, who are coming on
the nth proximo. Indeed, had these gen.
tlemen even visited Richmond, our city
would have been included in the itinerary
of the foreigners, for their coming to this
country is return for the American S0cic-
tvs visit 10 Europe last year
In this connection we would correct a
misapprehension that obtains TO some eX-
tent. The mechanical engineers were not
invited here by the resident members Of the
Society: the compliment was greater than
that. The Society selected Richmondas be-
ing the place most conspicuous in the south
for such a meeting, and it behooyes our
people to see that they have such "A welcome
and such "A display OF our resources that
whenever again they have the opportunity
of directing the movements Of such body
of men as the Iron and Steel Institute, they
will name Richmond as a place to he seen.
We can sow seed now that will bear fruit.
When Richmond was selected, there
were only three members Of the Society
here, and already the number has increased
TO fourteen, and others will doubtless Join
and since we have not the ore beds and
coal mines in our immediate vicinity. it be-
hooves US TO cultivate the ''brain strata, -
and develop mechanical and scientific
ability, and then will tall 10 our share the
skilful manipulation Of Nrgiuia's vast
mineral resources. Richmond the historic
city is destined TO become the beautiful
setting of Richmond the manufacturing
city, and Comte dc Paris, who is writing
on the subject of labor and manufactures,
can see already in his approaching visit

ally our achievements in war. Richmond

gineers. Industries have the call in all

TIE FnLNC9 PKINCEs.

Considerable feeling is exhibited by the
French Republicans with reference to the
very warm hospitality which has been eX-
tended to the French princes, who are now
visiting this country, this hospitality being
taken as an evidence Of lurking ill-will TO
the present form Of government In France.
This is, Of course, a very ridiculous mistake
arising from the French ignorance OF ;be
political conditions prevailing in this
country. II is a mistake often made hy
foreign nations who attach the broadcast
significance 10 the official action even Of
local bodies, because abroad such b0die 5
can only act under the direction Of the
central authorities. The fact that the
French princes were received with so much
distinction by men who have occupied or
shall occupy high official positions, like
Generals Sherman, Howard, and Sicklcs
and Mayor Filter, of Philadelphia, and that
every public courtesy has been extended to
them in the most unstinted manner, has no
political significance whatever. There is
probably not a man among those who have
been so assiduous in their attentions TO the
Count and his son who would be pleased TO
hear of the overthrow Of the French re-
public.
The warmth with which the Count and
his party have been greeted at the North is
entirely personal to himself and in the
light Of the fact that during the late war he
showed the most active sympathy with the
Federal cause this warmth is entirely nat
ural and proper. 50 far it has not been car
ried beyond the point Of what the French
princes, under the special circumstances,
had right to expect, aud certainly not so
far as to give any true ground for umbrage
TO the French Republicans.
1t is not at all improbable that President
HaTisou's sudden trip 10 the West, where
he will remain for some time, had It's origin
in desire TO escape the necessity Of show
ing the Count any special attention during
his sojourn in Washington, attention which
might have been regarded by the French
legation a. justiying the unpleasant feeling
which has already been aroused in France
by the reception with which the chief
Of the Bourbon dynasty has met in the pro-
gress of his American journey so far. As
the Count is now absenting himself from
Europe to avoid disagreeable complica-
ton in connection with the Boulanger ex-
posures, inc will doubtless appreciate very
fully the similar reasons which have taken
the President away from the capital.

all thf'.e encroachments is well known. If
ticrc had been an UNEMPLOYED region nearer
20 the setting sun, there can be little doubt
but that the Mormon people would have
deliberately abandoned their thrifty homes
and cultivated fields In Utah and sought this
new country, there TO establish themselves
again. in order TO be far removed from the
modern influences that were stealing into
their old communities. This, however, was
impossible, for American civilization was
advancing upon them from California az
well as from the East. IL was only ques-
ton Of time when they would be practically
overwhelmed.
As long as Brigham Young lived the
Church maintained the prosperity Of its
worldly affairs as well ar carried out all its
various doctrines, but from his death a de.
cline set in. The Gentle population grew
larger, hostile local influences Of various
kinds increased in activity, the public GEN.
timent Of the United States became more
determined that the abomination Of poly
gamy should be stamped out, laws were
passed having that object in view. and
| these laws haze been rigidly enforced.
The success of the anti Mormon candi-
dates in recent elections have convinced
the YOrmon leaders that further resistance
was useless. on Monday last an official
declaration was read by the head Of the
Mormon sect, proclsiming that hereafter
the Church would not sanction any mar
rage in violation Of the laws of the land,
and this declaration has been accepted by
all the leading elders. as we'll as by the
rank and file, "a fully defining the course
to be pursued by the membership of the
Mormon Church in the future.

The history of the Mormon Church il
America will always constitute one Of IN,
strangest, and in some aspects, one Of the
most discreditable episodes in the whole
course Of our national annals. The Hersist
ence OF the members of the Mormon organi
cation in adhering TO polygamN has been re
markable, and can only be explained upon
the ground Of a fanaticiem that has beer
intensified and emblt.ered by opposition and
a growing popular censure. Seeking under
the guidance of men Of very unusual
strength Of character, and Of great abilities,
a new home beyond the Rocky mountains,
aud establishing a prosperous community
ON the shores OF the salt Lake, they there
long lived, undisturbed in their mode OF
worship and the enjoyment OF their peculiar
institution. Every year, however, only
brought the vanguard Of civilization, the
foremost waves Of the mighty tide OF the
forward rolling immigration, nearer to the
earthly paradise which they had created in
the magnificent valley Ia which they had
made settlement.

The very worst Of the many Ubiquitous
features Of the Mckinley bill is the fact
that 1t lays upon the poor the heaviest OF
the burdens which II imposes. In other
words, the rich, who are In a position to
submit TO the increase in taxation with the
least Inconvenience, are the very class
which Is most favored under the terms OF
this bill, while the poor, who are in most
need Of relief, are those who are most un-

II will not be very long now before the
prices Of great variety Of articles which
are In common use among the masses OF
