pIINIsTER 1EwIs BAKER,
Ofthe st. Paul Globe, WIN have to Fac
Grave Charges.

OF the 81. Paul Globe, VIII have to Face
Grave Charges.
ST. PAUL, June 1.-THE sensational
fight for the possession OF the st. Paul
Daily Globe, the leading Democratic
newspaper OF Minnesota, whose editor
is Lewis Baker, minister to Nicaragua,
was begun Saturday morning before
Judge Otis in the district court, on the
motion for receiver by the st. Paul
Trust Company, executor OF the estate
OF the late Norman W. Kittson.
The charges are very sensational from
the fact that they state that Lewis
Baker is dishonest, and that his sons,
John +. Baker and Lewis Baker, jr,
temporarily in charge OF tho paper dur
ing the fathers absence abroad, are in
competent to handle the property.
The chief allegation in the complaint
is one OF fraud, in that Lewis Baker, on
the 7th OF March, 1893, transferred the
Globe plant to the st. Paul Printing and
Publishing Company for Sll2,50 when
the property was worth over $500, 900,
the purpose Of the transfer being 70
make inc Dunk OF Miuuesol4t W HHlSu
the newspaper and Mr., Baker were in
debted 1900, a preferred creditor.
The affidavit OF James j. West, Of
Chicago, is presented to show that
within month after the paper had
been sold for Sll2,500, Mr., West and
others mad offered s2l2, 800 for the plant
and franchises, and the transfer would
have been made but for the litigation
pending against the publisher Of the
paper,
After brief argument by John D.
0'Brlen, of st. Paul, in behalf OF the
new publishing company, John May
nard Harlan, OF Chicago, openedisthe
case for the applicants for receiver,
declaring that tho pretended sale OF the
Globe was conspiracy between Will
liam Dawson, jr., cashier OF tho Bank
of Minnesota, and Lewis Baker to sell
the plant at q radically lower figure
than its actual value in order to wreck
the old corporation and balance not
only the new aud old companies in,
debtedness, but also the personal in
debtedness OF Lewis Baker to the bank
in sum exceeding $4,000.

Johnnie.s Body Had Run AWAY.

While fishing On the bank of Stony
creek, johnnie johnson, a lad of 12years,
tumbled into the water and sank beneath
the surface. Other boys saw him disap-
pear, and they scampered away for aid.
Johnnie struggled until he reached dry
land and then took to his heels.
Half an hour later he stood on the
Main street bridge watchinga crowd of
men raking the waters of the creek with
graphing hooks. He became interested
in the strange occupation of the men,
Eve dreaming they were looking for
his own body. His clothes were wet, and
it was nice and sunny ON the bridge. He
remained there an hour until thoroughly
dry, and then descended to the creek
bank, where the anxious. crowd was
watching the dragging of the stream.
What you doin?' inquired johnnie of
one who had just come out of the water.
"Lookin fer j ohnnie Johnson's corpse
replied the man. He tumbled in there
two hours ago."
why, I'm Johnnie Johnson" said
the astonished lad. Then he explained
to the Disguised crowd Of people who had
been eager to see a limp body pulled
from the creek.-Norristown Cor. Phila-

y
the markets had to be organized in the
northern cities. When this was all done,
dollars came rolling into the pockets of
the men who had done it, and melons
are now shipped in enormous quantities
to every big city in the country, river
and coasting steamers and schooners be-
ing pressed into the service as well oil
the railroads.
1t would be a hopeless task to try to
figure up how many men, women and
children reap financial reward from the
cultivation of and trade in melons. The
st. Louis savant who has made a study
of the matter shows conclusiyely that
money made from melons is a factor in
the pockets Of stockholders in almost all
the railroad and steamboat lines, and
that when these individuals go abroad
they spend some Of that money there,
and SO it's influence is worldwide. Sta
tistics are sometimes a vain thing any
way, but it has interested me to learn
that this seasons shipments from south
west Georgia alone will aggregate $500
carloads and that melons from that re-
gion go to ls4 different points, the states
farthest west being the only ones not
taking them. 1t is expected that the en-
tire state of Georgia will put out about
1900 carloads this year, and that a round
million of dollars will be paid in return
for them to the growers and the rail
roads. OF the cities New York eats
most melons, next comes Chicago, then
Cincinnati, then Boston, Philadelphia,
Baltimore, st. Louis, Minneapolis and
so on down in the order named.
1t should not be understood that Geor-
gia is the only state raising melons in
quantities. They are grown in the Caro-
linas and in Florida, in Tennessee and in
Virginia, Maryland, New Jersey, Ohio,
Indiana, Illinois and New York. On the
Pacific coast they are plentiful in south
ern California.
