Attractive West St. Paul.

While driving over the bluff of West
st. Paul my attention was directed to
the natural and picturesque scenery of

to those interested in its improvements,
which would be means of identifying the
city and enhancing the value of prop
erty in that locality. From It's features
and undulating scenery few places in
tine West, and none so convenient to st.
Paul, possess so many attractions; and
a continuation could be made of those
little dotted beauty spots which help to
adorn and deck the city at this side of
the river, while at the other side little
or nothing has been done and neglected.
1t only requires the eye of a skilled art
ist to Introduce parks and boulevards
more grand and unique in form and not
in harmony with the present style of
those in Minneapolis and ST. Paul.
Something more foreign should be in

Hinckley's Railroad CIR ievance.

The citizens of Hinckley, who last
week made a verbal complaint to the
railroad commissioners against the East
ern Minnesota, Great Northern and st.
Paul q Duluth roads for abandoning
the Kettle river branch road, yesterday
filed, in a voluminous communication,
their grievances against the various
companies in accordance with legal re-
Quirements. The facts of the case were
fully published in the GLOBE last week.
The railroad companies have been noti-
fed by the commissioners to file
answers to the complaint within twenty
days. The basis of the complaint is
that since the 18th of last May all traffic
has been suspended ON the branch road,
which was built with the aid of the
town of Hinckley, who voted bonds for
that purpose. They wish now to COM
pei the railroad companies to furnish
passenger and freight accommodations,
or forfeit the bonds issued.

A WEEK OF OPERA.

The MeCaull Opera company has
wide reputation, and that alone was
sufficient to draw good audience to
the Newmarket last evening; then,
Glover being Ell ireiy new here,
helped out the attraction. 1t is an ex-
ctedingly clever, tuneful composition of
Won Suppe, and was very successfully
sung. Chauncey Olcott as Rudolph
and played the part handsomely, win
ming especially laurels and spirited
recall for the solo stella in the
second act. Charles w. DUNCAN,
who is quite local favorite, added to
his popularity as Lieut.. KilUorg. Will
lam Blaisdell made a success of the
comedy part of CaSimir, and w. +.
Rochester as DR.. Track was all that
could be desired. Miss Lilly Post made
her debut in st. Paul as Stella, and her
pretty face, fine figure and rich voice
brought her into instant favor. Miss
Annie Myers as Fanny, and Miss Jo-
sephine Knapp as Fl0rine, filled their
respective roles satisfactorily. The
chorus was above the average, and
scored a decided hit in the rendition of
the dlrge which concludes the second
act. Glover" was so decidedly popular
that it will be given again tomorrow
night, and The Seven SuabianS" will
be heard but tonight. There will be no
matinee.

idiotic horse-play that graces many of
the so-called comic operas of the pres

principal comedy role. and brings forth
some very amusing incidents in his
