ON SECOND THOUGHT
The Kicking Sophnmores Decide
They will Not Quit Hamiine.

Twenty-four hours have had whole
some effect in Quieting affairs at Ham,
line. Yesterday morning almost all the
sophOmores were determined to leave
to express their displeasure at the sus-
pension of Sophomore Godfrey. but this
morning almost all of the members OF
that class have decided to remain and
abide by the decision of the faculty.
One young lady sophomore went home
Tuesday night, but she was brought
back the next morning by her wise
father. Another young lady has gone
home, but probably may also return.
1t is quite likely that two or three OF
the boys of the class will leave, hut even
Trey may he induced to think better of
their rash determination.

NO MORE FRAUD.
The Cigarmakers' Union Will Not

Ihe CigarmakerS Union Will NOT
Tolerate Forged Labels.
Patrick O'Regan had hearing yes
terday before Judge Burr upon the
charge OF Infringement of the cigar
makers union label. The facts OF the
prosecution were published exclusively
in the GLOBE yesterday. A fine of S35
was imposed, which was RENTED be-
cause this was the first case under the
new law. The union has determined
upon vigorous prosecution of all
parties who hereafter perpetrate such
infringements. 1t is thought. however,
that this case will furnish such an eX-
ample as will put an end to the general
deceit heretofore practiced. The label
is cleverly counterfeited and requires
an expert to detect the forgery. Ii will
therefore be necessary for dealers to
exercise caution in buying cigars, so as
not to make themselves liable to LroSc-

IT is alleged that William Banks is the
employe Of the education board against
whom a serious charge had been made.
Banks is inspector of construction
under the board, and the alleged otfense
is that OF asking for pay for awarding
contracts. 1t is said that contrac tor
made complaint that Banks became in
debted to him and then wanted to Offset
the liability 10y claiming that he secured
him contract from the board. Mr..
Banks says he has had no official notice

If such charge had been made it was

Proportion of the Prison
Population.
The Occupants Of Our Jalls
Just Slightly Beyond the
Average.
A Particularly Encouraging
Sign in a Young and
Growing State.
Remarkable Case Of Faith
Healing Reported in st.
Paul.

During the past two years census of
the prison population of the state has
been taken by the state board of cor
rectiOnS and charities at midsummer
and midwinter. he first fact noticed
is that there is no considerable increase
of prison population. In the past eight
cen months, the net increase has been
a; which is an increase of only as per
cent, or 8 per cent per year. The
county jail population has decreased 81,
the state PRISM population has i'll
creased only IA. The principal increase
has been in the st. Paul and MinneapO-
lis warehouses;, whose population has
increased from 2lS 10 800, an increase of
AZ per cent. There is, however, cOnsid-
cradle increase in the number of prison
ers serving sentence in the various
places of confinement, which on July
81 was as follows:

This is an increase of 81 per cent in
the past three years, but this increase
is partly due to the fact that the estab-
lishment of the city warehouses of st.
Paul and Minneapolis has caused many
men to be punished who formerly went
free. There is but little difference be-
tween the summer and winter pOpula-
ton. In 1883 the summer population
was fifty-Seven more, and in 1889 it was
ten less than the winter population. In
winter tramp dodgers are found in the
city lock-upS; in summer few tramp
dodgers are found In the county lock-
ups. The great body Of the prison pop
ulation comes from the cities. as may be
seen by comparing the number of pris-
oners from Hennepin. Ramsey. st.
Louis and Winona counties with the
rest Of the state.

1t appears, therefore, that, leaving out
of the account the warehouses; and
houses of the Good Shepherd. i'll st.
Paul and Minneapolis, only 9 per cent
of the prison population OF Minnesota
is composed of women. On the whole,
the showing is not discouraging. Cor it
indicates that crime increases more
slowly in Minnesota than do the various
forms of misfortune, the average in
crease of the inmates of the public
correctional and charitable institutions,
as whole, being about 10 per cent
yearly.

Copper Brads in Shoes.

'Do you see these large copper brads
in the sole of my shoe?" asked a gen.
tleman Of the st. Louis Republics Man
About Town, as he held up to view the
sole of one of his shoes. On being
answered in the affirmative he said:
ITO these simple brads alone | attri-
butte my present good health. For
years I was an invalid, subject to dys-
pepsia, neuralgia, headache, and other
innumerable pains, and travelled the
country over in search of health. In
travelling out west among the Indian
tribes | was struck with their remark
able health, and especially their ex-
emption from the maladies that affiict-
ed me and also with the fact that the
strongest and healthiest went bare
footed altogether. | sought an expla-
nation of the matter and by continued
observation and study was finally led
to the conclusion that the aches and
pains to which civilized man is heir are
owing to the manner in which we in
sulate our bodies from Mother Earth.
Science is every day more clearly de
monstrating that electricity is the
VitaliZing constituent of our bodies and
that this globe of ours is a mighty bat
terry, continually generating and dis
charging electricity. Now, | reasoned,
if this was correct the secret of the In
dams health was in his bare feet. which
exposed his whole body to the vitaliz-
ing influence of the electrical earth cur
rents; while my i'll health was attribut-
able to my feet being insulated from
these currents. Acting on this hypothe-
sis [ sought to restore the broken con-
nection by inserting these brads in the
soles of my shoes, and the result, L must
say. was astonishing. My feet, which
formerly were nearly always cold, soon
became warm and moist; my health
commenced shortly to improve, and in
a few months was entirely relieved of
all my pains, and have ever since en-
joyed good health. 1t is very simple
thing and easily tested, and feel sure
would benefit any one afflicted as /
was.

The Men and Women of Brazil.

The Flumenenses, as the people of
Rio are called, are in some ways polite
and well bred, in others rude and Yul-
gar. The men have. a coarse habit of
rudely staring at every lady who passes
by, and crowd on street corner will
never give way to let ladies pass
meet on the sidewalk and stop to talk
they coolly obstruct the pavement and
expect passers-by to take to the road
way. The tram-cars are not fit for a
lady to ride in-the men all smoke, and
usually yillainous tobacco.
The Brazilian women are not pretty,
and in the presence of gentlemen are
usually shy. At reception or soiree
the gentlemen gather in knots and talk
politics at the top of their voices, and
the ladies sit about and talk-I know
not what, for if a gentleman comes
near they instantly stop short.
The men of native birth, as rule,
are low of stature and slender. But
there are Brazilians of girth and COM
manding presence. The Brazilian wo-
men are dark and not comparable to
our Northern beauties. They make
good mothers, though rather induls gent,
but social usages allow them no liberty
and their days are monotonous and
without excitement. Their daughters
are taught French. Music is natural
gift. They can embroider a little, but
the world and what goes on it is a
sealed book to them. Until they are
married they are never alone in gen.
tleman's company. A young man can
not call often and manifest any particu-
lar preference for a young lady with
out being asked if his intentions are
serious The mother has scarcely
more liberty than the daughter. Her
place is at home, and, be it said to the
Brazilians' credit the husbands, as a
rule, are domestic in their habits.
Their evenings are spent at home or at
places of amusement with their wives
and children.-Rio J0neiro Letter.

Said to be $50 Years Old.

The oldest man in the world is q
citizen of Bogota, in the Republic of
San Salvador.
The new Methuselah declares that he
is $50 years old, and it would seem he
fatters himself. for his neighbors give
the assurance that he is older than he
SAYS he is.
He is half-breed, named Michael
Soils, whose existence was revealed to
DIR. Louis Hernandez by one of the old
est planters in the locality, who as a
child knew Soils as centenarian.
They have found in the year 1712 his
signature among those of persons who
contributed to the building of Fran
ciscan convent which exists near San
Sebastian.
His skin is like parchment, his long
hair, of the whiteness of snow, envelops
his head like turban, and his look is so
keen that it made disagreeable i'm
preston on the Doctor.
Intercepted by the Doctor, he
answered complaisantly that his great
age was due to his regular mode of liv-
ing, and to his never giving up to any
excess of any sort whatever.
II never eat but once day." said he,
"but l never use any but the strongest
and most nourishing foods. My meals
last half hour; for | believe it is i'm
possible to eat more in that time than
the body can digest in twenty-four
hours. | fast the first and fifteenth day
of each month, and on those days L

SHOPPING IN AMERICA.
According to a Description Given by Ee-
cent British Traveller.

The (American) storekeeper never
says what commodity is really worth
intrinsically or in his particular market,
but places its value about 20 per cent
over what he will take for it and which
is in turn about % per cent over what
he paid for it. Bargaining which goes
on in all the provincial cities and towns
is extraordinary. The process is called
"Jewing down." and proceeds some
thing like this:
Scene: Store. Enter prospective
buyer, points laconically to article and
loquitur: 'Say, what's this WORTH"
Storekeeper-One dollar, and dirt
cheap.
P. B. (who really wants it)-Ah,
waal, it's not quite what | want. But
I'm III no pertickler rush to-day.
Pauses.) B'lieve I'll give you 70 cents
for it.
Seventy centsP Why, declar
it's dirt cheap at 81; spittooning-
I'll let you have it for 80 cents.
T. B.-That's quite ridiklous. How
ever | ken jist let un rip! Turns over
about dozen articles and then pre-
pares to leave the store
S.-Come now, yer shall have it for
80 cents, thar! couldn't make it bet
ter nor that anyhow.
P. B. examining article attentively,
but granting the while)-No, Stree;
it won't run it. -confdentially-
I'll tell yer what l will do. I'll give
yer Is cents-75 cents Gmpressively),
and not red cent more. What say?
The storekeeper fires a bolt at the
nearest spittoon, shakes his head, and
turns to serve another customer. Pro-
spective buyer saunters around the
store, and eventually reaches the door.
At this moment the storekeeper calls
out:
''Say, you can take that burned
thing, but come and see US again, will
yer?"
And so the compact is concluded.
Both are fully satisfied and think moth
ing of the ten minutes they have
wasted, for both concluded they have
"bested' the other. This phrase ''come
and see US again" is the usual fare
well. | have had it said to me, scores
of times.-Artt,tr Montetfore in Temple

Artificial Lightning in War.

''This is the age of patent new inven.
tons for killing bodies and for saving
souls,'' is what Byron wrote nearly a
century ago. There is a man over in
Trenton who comes forward today
with scheme for killing bodies which,
he thinks, when duly patented, will
revolutionize modern warfare. Unless
he is in error, the plan will certainly
serve to put an end to battles, because
the inventor will by this ingenious de-
vice kill whole armies in day. The
mans name is Grinnell. He is a Jersey
man and feels little anxious to know
what the effect of his plan will be be-
fore getting patent on it. He wants
it used only in case it would put an end
to wars. The Jerseyman, you will see,
is kind-hearted destroyer. His in
vention resides in the power to pro-
duce lightning by artificial means.
By the use of small dynamo Grinnell
has already killed the flies in a 20x20
room, and by little work in perfecting
his scheme he expects to be able to kill
an army any fair day in the week. The
act of wholesale destruction will have
to be suspended on wet days.-M z.
