Why Dummy.Clocks Mark 9.IS.

There are few who have not seen
ordinary sign of a jeweler-an i'm
mense imitation of watch hanging
over the front of the store. But it is
safe to say that the number of those
who have ever detected any thing Gu
rious in these same signs is very
small. At S.1S p. H., April 18th,
1865, Abraham Lincoln was assassi-
mated in Ford's Theatre, at Washing
ton, by Jno. Wilkes Booth. Since
that fatal night every one of these
watch signs that has gone from the
factory of the only man who makes
them has shown the hour of SIS.
The man who makes them says: 81

A QUESTION NOT DoDGED.

The Rochester Democrat and Chron-
Icle (muZzled) says: "There is one ques-
ton that the free trader always dodges:
Would he be glad or sorry to see tin
plate manufactured in the United States
in sufficiet quantity to supply the home
demand?"
The GLOBE does not recall having
seen this very easily answered ques-
ton put before, and does not believe
that any free trader ever lodged it. In
fact, it doubts very much whether its es-
teemed contemporary, which may be
very good chronicler but is not at all
Democrat, ever asked any free trader
the question. If, however, the GLOBE
is mistaken in this, and its contemporary
has met free traders so ignorant as to
have to dodge instead of squarely meet
ing this question. it will endeayor to fill
the unsatiSfed want. If the question
is permitted to stand just as it is
put as an original proposition without
any qualifications, the GLOBE freely adj
mits that it will be very glad indeed to
see tin plate manufactured in this coun-
try, not only in quantity sufficient 10
supply what is needed here, but enough
to supply the world. We trust that this
answer is explicit enough. The GLOBE
Will go farther. 1t is glad to see this
country producing no. alone all the
beef and pork, all the wheat and cotton
and corn needed to feed and clothe its
people, but a surplus to send abroad to
exchange for the things we want, and
can get mole cheaply than we can get
them here. 1t is proud of the pluck,
skill and manlineSS of the American
producers of these products, who, after
supplying our people. send their sur
plus abroad and meet the farmers of
the world in open competition.
selling at home and abroad at
prices fixed in this world wide
contest of industry and getting, if he
asks it, DO Increase of price from his
fellow citizens by the imperious decree
OF his government. The GLOBE will be
equally proud of the American manu-
facturer Of tin plate when he too, like
his brother of the soil, will bravely face
the manufacturers of his product in
this and all other markets and sell his
wares at the prices made by such COM
petition. 1t cOnfesses that it feels moth
ing but shame for him when he weakly
admits that, with all his magnificent
opportunities, he cannot make tin plate
unless every one who uses tinware in
this country is compelled to pay him
two and twO-tenths cents a pound for
the ware they buy more than they can
get it for elsewhere. And if, as con-
dition precedent to the making in this
country of all the tin plate it needs, it
is necessary that the cost of the plate be
thus enhanced to the consumers, the
GLOBE is equally free to admit that it
Will be very sorry to see that kind of
tinplate made here in any quantity
whatever, even enough to make tin
plate badges for the delegates to Re-
publican conventions.

1T MAY SUGGEST.

Brooklyn, n. Y, has some note for
the multiplicity of its churches and the
peculiarities of preachers. One of them
has narrowly weathered an ordeal of
late involving not so much creed as
practice. Pastor HORNE is BAPTIST.
and accustomed to holding the sisters in
the administration of baptism, and pos
sibly the temptation to salute sweet
lips with kiss did not seem so needful
to resist. 1t is not, however, meant to
intimate that clericals of that persuasion
are specially liable to kiss pretty girls.
In fact, recent local Examinations inspire
special awe in that direction. But this
pastor did kiss two sweet young maid
ems of his spiritual flock. and the sound
thereof went abroad throughout the
city and convulsed the community, at
least so far as the religious portion of it
was concerned. That particular church
was rocked as if by an earthquake, an
Indictment was formulated and the
pastor put on trial. The facts were
established in all their direful reso-
nance. In making his pastoral calls, he
visited two charming young sisters. On
his departure the girls handed him his
equipments, and one roguishly put his
hat on her own head. when the other
exclaimed, That's forfeit, Mr.. HORNE;
she owes you kiss" The pastor was
young and human, and the temptation
of rosy upturned lips was too great. He
kissed her and liked it so we'll that he

THE CHINESE MISSION.

Yesterday mornings dispatches say
that President HARRISON has decided
to appoint ex-senator PIERCE, of Min
neapolis, to the Chinese mission, and
that he will accept the position. The
GLOBE does not want to have Mr..
PIERCE leave the state even for little
while, but if there is any one in the Re-
publican party who deserves recognition
and is equal to the demands of the most
eXacting duties, it is he. Half a dozen
men. perhaps, of his. politlcesl faith may
fairly lay some claim to be numbered
with the handsome men Of the land, but
if any one OF them combines good looks
with pleasant manners, graceful car
riage aud an attractive personality to
the measure he fills, the GLOBE has
yet to shake his hand or see his
picture. Senator PIERCE, besides all
these recommendations, is a newspaper
man by training, and understands his
craft. There have been times when
Strengthened circumstances and the
worry which accompanies them have
made the Minneapolis Tribune falter,
and under other homogeneous on some
days even the least critical reader has
had to admit that it was deadly dull.
But since he has been at the helm its
columns have seen good reading. 1t
has hit hard blows. even though they
have been in bad cause, and the in
valid who has expected to find in it a
remedy for nervous prostration, has
been grievously disappointed. Of course
the responsible head is not entitled to
all the credit for this, but there is credit
enough to go all around and give him a
good deal for his exclusive use. The
GLOBE is not very we'll acquainted with
the emperor of China and his wives, but
if they know good fellow when they
see him they will appreciate Senator
PIERCE. If he wants the Chinese mis-
sion the GLOBE hopes that he will get
it, and is sure that he will fill the bill.

COMMENCEMENT SEASON.

This is commencement season, and
every evening the streets are gay with
children in summer gowns and with
flowers in their hands going aud return
ing from one hall and another where
diplomas are awarded and the good-byes
for the simmer are spoken. 1t is a
happy time for the children, because it
means vacation and because they re-
ceive some public recognition of the
hard work they have been at now for
many months. 1t is happy time, too,
for parents and grown brothers and
sisters, because they are glad for the
chlIdren's happiness and proud of what
they have done and are doing. Every
body cannot take every prize. but one
excels in one thing and another in an
other. Even those who do not take any
prize at all need not be discouraged be-
cause perhaps they would have had
they tried real hard, and perhaps. any
how.they will next year. Ii they have

CHAUNCEY MI. DEPEW.

Now that P. t. BARNUM is dead the
greatest thing on earth is ADAM FORE
PAUGH. And he isn't OH earth either.
The company which owns his circus.
however, pretends that he is. and pastes
his portrait on every bill board in the
country to arrest the attention of the
passer-by. 1t does this partly because
his countenance is a drawing one, and
partly because it receives bonus from
CHAUNCEY M. DEPEw for the advertis-
ing it gives him. There is only one man
i'll the world whom ADAM FOREPAUGH
looks more like than he looks like him
self. That man is CHAUNCEY NJ. De
PEW. DEPEw has political aspirations
and he wants the dear public to become
familiar with his features and to get to
love them. The public may not get to
love him, as it notices the annual in
junction to wait for FoREPAUGH, but if
it looks at the posters hard enough it
will know the great New Yorker the
next time it sees him.
1t is too bad that CHAUNcEY got
mixed up in the tunnel accident, be-
cause, until that happened, he was the
everybody could think of with kind and
happy feelings. He may not be the
greatest man in the world, but he has
no small ability, and an endless fund
of high spirits and good fellowship.
Down in Connecticut they tell story
OF a country parson who was preaching
to his congregation on the character of
st. PAUL. 1t is not the easiest thing for
any parson, let alone country parson,
to be interesting and Ineligible on
such topic. But this one was, because
when he got through his thirdly and
fourthly, he said: Brethren, to sum
up this whole matter, when we con-
slder st. PAUL's marvellous versatility,
his skill in associating with men
OF every class, his rare eloquence. his
graphic power of description, his supe-
riority to adverse circumstances, his
tireleSs energy, his uEquenchable cheer
fulness, his personal magnetism and his
unequalled ability to gladden. the hearts
of everybody with whom he came in
contact repeat, brethren, when we
consider all these things, are we not
justified in declaring that ST. PAUL
was the CHAUNCEY NJ. DEPEw of Bible
times?" His congregation appreciated
the illustration and to this day ST.
PAUL is as popular in that village as
CHAUNCEY NJ. DEPEw is wherever he
goes. And that is saying a good deal
for ST. PAUL.

of the next school year, and that sew
ing, cooking and similar employments
connected with the household shall be
as practically taught to the girls as are
the elements of the mechanical and in
dustrial arts to the boys.
The success of this class of schools
since their introduction into this coun-
try a few years ago has been remark
able. Their number is rapidly increas-
ing, and the time is not distant when
manual training schools will be regard
ed as one of the most importantag agencies
III our whole system of education.
Among the results which may be ex-
pected from the establishment of these
agencies may be named:
First-The development of the nat
ural aptitudeS of the child, enabling
him wisely to select his occupation in
life.
Second-It will impress him with the
dignity of labor when joined to high
order of intelligence.
Third-lt will coordinate a cultured
mind with the skillful hand, and thus
equip the individual for faithful, hon.
orable and successful career.

not these consultations, they aud their
parents may reflect that the most sue
ceSsful men in the world are not the
ones who stood highest at school. and
that while brains are not without their
value in girls career, dimples and
bright eyes count just as much.
The GLOBE is glad that vacation is
come, not only for the children's sake,
but also for the teachers. Books and
school discipline teach the young and
fit them for life's duties, but so do the
woods and the bright skies and the riv-
erS and brooks. There are sermons in
stones, land the boys and girls who, while
they have nothing to do. learn the names
of the trees and of the flowers, get IA
miliar with the habits of the fishes and
and the birds and master the art of
swimming, Of sailing boat and of
handling a gun, are not wasting
their time, but laying up treasures
against future years when skill in such
things will afford them distraction and
rest amid the stern and exacting de-
mands of their active careers.
The teachers, too, need rest. Theirs
is hard worked and underpaid pro-
fession. No tasks require more nervous
vigor and strain the strength more than
do theirs. They have to be patient,
and yet severe, and many and many a
day they chop wood without seeing a
single chip fly. Children are pro-
verbally unappreciative of efforts made
on their behalf, and it is not until their
later years that they understand how
much their teachers did for them. Then
their gratitude is great, but they no
longer see the ones to whom some ex-
preston of such feelings would be
cheering and helpful in their daily rou-
tine. The teachers may know, how
ever, that the GLOBE applauds their
work, aud hopes that they will enjoy
the respite they have so richly earned.
1t wishes those of them who are men
a good time at the seashore or on the
lakes, and it hopes that all the women
may be happily married before the fall
returns, SO that they will no longer have
to work, and so that younger women
who are waiting may have their places.

NOT TRuE ARTISTS.

1t seems from the Omaha papers that
the alleged Christian scientists of that
locality do not meet the high exactions
of the cult. They may not possess the
material requisite for the infusion of
supermundane potency, if that Is the
right designation. A female priest of
the order. like others before, was. the
other day, arrested for not preventing
the death of another woman, although
she exercised the art or what not of the
school as she could for the recovery of
the sick person. Death ensued, and the
practitioner on the new line was fined
$50 for illegally practicing medicine. If
she was responsible for the death of the
afflicted person, the valuation of human
life at Omaha is remarkably low An
indignant base ball crank could afford
to kill an umpire occasionally at that
rate. But, as a matter of fact. the
Christian scientists do not claim to
practice medicine. If they have any
materia medica it IS impalpable and
mental. Their remedial doctrines have
no element of grossness or faint of car
nality. 1t could not, however, be
charged that there was any criminal
purpose. The law does not seem to
have any considerable opportunity if
some do die under their dispensatlon.
1t is believed that such events at times
occur in the regular medical practice.
Statistics are not at hand to indicate the
relative mortuary sequences of ordinary
medication and those of the Christian
Science school. 1t is not learned that
there is complaint of lack of success by
the professors of the science in st. Paul.
/ Ii any have died under their attend
ance no imputations have come from
them. 1t is possible that the Omaha
lights lacked proper illumination. They
might do well to come to st. Paul, and
bask in the superior radiance.

repeated. The other sister then IN
sisted that she was jealous and pouted,
when the pastor administered the same
salute to her. The story leaked out at
tea party. and the trouble commenced.
The big brothers of the girls proposed
to thresh the preacher and the church
took it up. The pastor was penitent. He
confessed that he had been over
come by the peculiar temptation. He
implored their forgiveness. The staid
deacons and trustees remembered that
they were once young, and finally
voted that trust and confidence" should
not be withdrawn from him, although
the ancient maidens and matrons were
not quite pacifed. But, as a result,
there are no more empty seats in that
church when the kissing pastor is in the
pulpit. The young people flock there to
see the preacher who is susceptible to
this quite human temptation. While
the problem is under review how to get
people to the churches, perhaps the
Brooklyn episode may afford sugges-
tions. No limitations, however, are in
tended,

POLITICAL CHATTER.

G. P. Maginnis, of Duluth, came down
yesterday to meet with the sachems of the
Democratic party. A monthly meeting of
the state club was held in the new rooms in
the GLOBE building. F. G. Winston, of Mime
apolis, was the only other member from out
side the city that was in attendance. Mr..
Maginnis, by the way is not Democrat of
the ordinary easy going type. He is of the
aggressive sort, is sanguine and does not hes
itate to predict Democratic victory next
year. While the Republican hordes are fig
uFing and specializing upon the problem of
returning Senator Davis or shelving him for
Gov Merriam, Mr.. Maglnnis quietly re-
marks: There is no certainty of either be-
ing elected by the next legislature. 1t is
within the human probabilities that the next
United States senator will be chosen from
the Democratic army of statesmen"
In this connection it may be Of interest to
note that there is no lack of material in the
event the next house of representatives is
Democratic. Several available candidates
have already been mentioned in these col
Il INNS, and III addition thereto a st. Paul en-
thusiast desires that Mayor Smith, of ST. Paul
Mayor Winston, of Minneapolis. ana Hon.
Charles Nj. Foote, of Minneapolis, be in

concerning the probable candidacy of Con-
gresham John Lind TO succeed himself in

reticent but he still insists that he has a let

not candidate. However, Mr.. Day accorded,
should Mr.. Lind desire at any time before the
course of events shall have taken fixed
aspect for some other available man, he NAV
secure the nomination. Yet, he volunteered
the opinion, Dir Lind must be satisfied that
there is something of a unanimity of septi
ment in mis- favor before he will make the
undertaking.
Senator Day is an uncompromising ex-
ponent of the interests of Senator c. X.
Davis. and he is insistent in expressing the
belef that he will be the choice of his party
at the next contest. should poll of the
Republicans in my district be taken'', he ex-
Claimed. Il doubt if any other man would

guage, but it seems to be the way Frank
feels.
Hon. W. r. Estes, OF Madelia, consul IN

tor Davis. He is not an ungrateful recipient
of political preferment, and VIII naturally
stand behind the man who has advanced his
own interests in that particular. Mr.. Estes
ex Expresses an abiding faith in the undimn-
ished popularity of his patron. and predicts
his easy return to Washington at the con-
clusion Of his term.

A GOOD MEASURE,

BY the action of the legislature of H.
inois this week the state becomes the
twenty-sixth to adopt ballot reform if
the governor approves the bill. This
he will no doubt do, as it passed the
legislature unanimously after it had
been approved in conference. 1t is
claimed that it is more complete meas
ure than has been adopted in any other
state. There are believed to be no loop
holes, as in Pennsylvania and some
other states. The Republicans insisted
upon numbering the ballots. but the
Democrats were obstinate on that point,
as it would afford clue to the voter,
and affect the secrecy of the ballot The
names are to be printed in column for
each party, and only a designated Of
fetal can go into the booth to aid the
ilIiterate voter. There are also facilities
for getting names on the ticket not had
In some states. But it is not surprising
that a legislature electing Democratic
senator, after heroic struggle, should
pass good ballot reform act.
