ARRESTED REDDY,
But There Was No Evidence to
Prove His Guilt

But There Was No Evidence to
Prove His Guilt.
j. w. Robinson, a colored man who
rooms at Al East Sixth street, came near
turning white when he awoke at 4
yesterday morning and found arevolyer
pointed under his nose. His room had
been entered by daring robber and,
when awakened, he was commanded to
keep quiet or take dose of lead. He
kept quiet and the thief walked out
with his gold watch and charm and all
his loose change. After the robber had
disappeared Robinson got I'D and
went to the central police station.
where he informed Lieut.. SchWeitzer of
what had happened. From the descrip
ton given by Robinson the lieutenant
thought the robber might be the noto
riouS ''Reddy' Hackett, and so that in
diyiduai was, caught and run in a couple
of hours later. Hackett was found in
his room at the corner of Jackson and
Eighth streets. Hackett was in bed,
but as lie had all his clothes on it was
evident tiat he had not been there long.
The articles stolen from Robinson could
not be found upon the person of Hack
EFT nor in his room, and therefore it will
be difficult 10 prosecute him for the rob-
berry. 1t is said that "Reddy'' was
seen on the street with revolver in his
hand about an hour before he was ar
rested.

SIRENS HISS,
THE NATIONAL PARK.
Comment on the Success OF the
Park Resolutions.

Park Resolutions.
The house and senate have passed the
resolutions, originally drawn up by the
secretary of the state forestry associa-
ton and modified by Messrs. Lomen
and Kendall, OF the house, petitioning
the president of the United States to
set apart vast tract of unoccupied
and non-arable lands in the extreme
northern part of the state for national
park. 1t is proposed therein to locate it
somewhere betweenV ermillion lake and
Lake of the Woods. comprising any
suitable number of acres above
10000. BY calculation it is found
that there are not less than
100000 acres that might be
be so appropriated. The park certainly
ought not to be less than 100000 acres.
Parties who have travelled over that re-
gion aver it is one of the most variegated
and romantic localities in the United
States; that it abonDdS with capital
springs and lakes, and rivers filed with
excellent fish; that it has craggy
heights, chains of hills and daieS, table
lands and Dogs more or less covered
with pines and hard woods, and haunted
with game of every description. Steam
erS ply in the open season oyer all the
larger bodies of water. What All en-
chanting retreat this can be made for
all the coming years! Were it denuded
OF trees, as it will be unless consecrated
for park purposes, nothing can remain
but vast desert there, across
which the bowling winds from the
frozeu North will sweep unchecked, to
the general injury of all our agricult-
ural interests. BY the preservation of
those native forests and the cultivation
of new ones wherever needed. under
forest laws like those of Germany, there
will not only be living wall guarding
against Borean wrath, but a vast and
Unreasonable reservoir of humidity
winged TO us on every incoming breeze,
mitigating the rigOrs of our climate and
blessing all the people near and abroad.
Understand, it is to be one of the great
national parks, subjecting our state to
no expense whatever. Think of the
benefits accruing from it by the pro-
motion of rainfall and its distribution.
The committee authorized by the legls-
lature to confer with President Harri-
son consists of the governor, the secre-
tary of the state board of agriculture
and the secretary of the state forestry
association, who will soon define the
location and boundaries of said park
and submit their request to the con-
sheraton of the president.

hausted the word friend and erappled
some kindred heart to our own with
hooks of steel; when we have known
the pain and the JOY that run so closely
together in that sacrifice of self-a sac
ritice that is the basis of all religious
ioy-and if in all this we have learned
the lesson that our ideas. spirit, may
make life a joy instead of sorrow, and
if with this hopeful look we then make
most of the opportunities that lie in our
way-the gladness of nature and the
satisfactions of friendship, the sacrl-
fees of love-then L believe we have
solved the question, and our riches are
the riches that man may and does en-
Joy. This is surely the teaching of re-
ligion. and the greatest of all living per-
sons, the One who solved life'S problem
and conquered the world, hasstaught us
that this is the way that leads not only
to life, but to happiness.

pearance in the Northwest, all of the
scenery has been replaced and it comes
out this season reSplendent with mag
nifcent settings and effects. The COM
pany is very large one, with full
CORPS de ballet, and includes a number
of popular favoriteS. None of the fairy
imaginingS are omitted, and the play
closes with an especially fine tranStOr-
nation scene, which draws out raptur
Gus applause. Crystal Slipper will

Saturday matinees.
Late corners at the Grand opera
house last evening were unable to OBJ
tain seats to witness the production of
THE Waits of New York" presented
by the bright soubrette, Katie Emmett,
and her capable company. Long before
the curtain rose every available spot in
the theater was taken. and the vast du-
dience was presented with highly ell
tertaining play, III which pathos and
humor were pleaslngly blended. The
author of the play has cleverly woven
q story of everyday life, laying the
scene in the great city of New \ ork.
where abject misery and prOverty can
only too easily be found. The old story
of vice and virtue is retold in the play,
which furnishes an opportunity TO pre-
sent familiar scenes or the Empire City.
The most ardent lover of the sensational
drama will find his tastes gratified, and
the scenes depicting the elevated rail-
road in New York, Castle Garden at
sunset, the Tombs police court and the
great fire scene at the famous Five
Points, were last evening received
with thunderous applause. Miss
Katie Emmett possesses a magne-
tism which rivets the attention of
her audience, and in sher delineation
of the character of the poor newsboy,
William Rufus, proved herself the pos
SCISSOR of talent of high order. Though
the play is of the sensational kind, il is
relieved by an abundance of comedy,
presented by George w. Thompson in
the character of a German salo0nkeeper,
and the we'll known character actress
Amy Ames, who appears as Biddy Nc
Shane, a large-hearted lrishwoman.
Little Lillian Masterson, sweet tot
about six years old, won att hearts by
her clever and pathetic presentation of
one of the waits, and George w. Mitchell
displayed great ability in his rendition
of villainous Italian cutthroat. .EX-
cellent support was given the principals
by Marie Atchison, Emma Rice, Frank
Roberts, w. II. Murdoch, Gus Hennessy
and the balance of the cast.
