The realistic features of the yacht scene
the blowing of a real safe by ex-profession-

people. 1t seems that Spike" IIennessey

for THE Stowaway" and are doing so vel
at it that they have no temptation to go
back to the dark lantern and drill and fuse

Naverly Tribune.
The st. Paul GLOBE published last
Monday very interesting exposure OF
the methods of the American Protective
association. 1t seems astounding that
society of this description should have
1000 msmbers in Duluth and 5000 or
10,0O0 10 Minneapolis. Tie editorial on
the first page of the Tribune this week
was written before the exposure of the
st. Paul GLOBE appeared. and in the
light of the revelations Of that paper
we can only add that a society which
speaks OF its members as being Gods
Dobiemen, swears to uphold the consti-
tuition, and then, under an oatn
or secrecy, binds those who be-
long to it not to employ a Cath
Ole in any capacity, or countenance
the nomination of Catholic for any
Office in the gift of the American people,
is blot on our civilization and burn
ing disgrace. If the constitution of the
United States depends for its lnterpre-
tatlon upon the fools who masquerade
as the A. 2. A.. the sooner it is abol-
ished the better. The founders of our
republic hated. despised and loathed
the narrow and contemplate bigotry
which ostraciseS man for his religious
belief, and they would have detested
equally the sanctimonious hypocrisy
that calls upon God to witness an act of
unsurpassed meanness.-WaverlyT rib-

UNIoUE ENTERTAINMENT.
Riley and Sherley in ST. Paul Sat-
urday Night.

Riley and Sherley in St. Paul Sat-
urday Night.
Riley as conversationalist Is a great
surprise. He says so many funny things
on the platform and gets into so many
odd shapes that at first thought one
might suppose he lacked in dignity. but,
on coming closer to him. respect for
him is heightened; and when he leads
the conversation to literature, showing
his intimate acquaintance with both
authors and their works, the opportunity
to meet him is accorded greater
privilege.
Last year in Minneapolis on meet
ing several editors the conversation
turned on Rudyard Kipling Riley gave
it as his opinion that kipling was a
greater poet than novelist, and added
that he considered it pity that the au-
thor did not take greater care with his
productions. He said that it always APP
peared TO him that Kipling run his
''stuff" off in hot haste for some daily,
and then clipped it at both top and
bottom to make it fit the column.
If any one doubts that Riley's works
are not carefully prepared let them con-
slider his criticism of Kipling. and then
also read his prose sketch "a Remark
able Man" He writes as he talks,
easily. but not carelessly.
Messrs. Riley and Sherley will be seen
at Ford's Music hall Saturday evening
of this week. A typographical error was
misleading as to the time when the sale
of seats was to begin. 1t begins at a.

MAILS ON THE RAILWAYS.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 12.-General Su-
perlnteDdent ames E. White, of the
railway mail service, has made his an
nual report TO the postmaster general.
Upon this branch of the service depends
the rapid transportation of mails. At
the close OF the fiscal year mails were
being carried on 1885, 52 miles of rail
road. for which S,059 cars were used
with 6.4l7 railway clerks. There were
handled during the year 0,236, 81, 915
pieces of mail matter. This is an in
crease over 1888 of 49.6S per cent, while
the increase in the number of clerks is
but Is. 81 per cent. For clerks salaries
the next year 81. 1s6. 600 is asked, and an
appropriation of s., 094, 600 for postal
cars is recommended. The superintend-
ent says the stagnatioD of business has
the effect of decreasing the mails.
He refers to the number of railroad
accidents during the past year, and
urges that some provision be made for
the families of the postal clerks who
were killed. He also renews previous
recommendations that the salaries of
the clerks De increased, also that there
be force of auxiliary clerks of $50. to
be paid salaries of $3.50 year in addi-
ton to what they earn as substitutes.
He also wants the mail cars and tenders
of engines Yestibuled for the safety of
employees.
A special feature of the report is the
recommendation of a bill making it a
misdemeanor for any individual. asso-
citation or organization to Interfere with
the passage of any train carrying the
mails, and providing that any persons
or representatives of any association or
organization obstructing the mails shall
be fined and imprisoned for each Of
Tense.
On the day of the adjournment the
house of representatives sent to the
postmaster general an inquiry as to
whether the claims of letter carriers for
compensation for services in excess of
eight hours are being received. and
whether. in the settlement of these
claims, the service of. attorneys is nee
essary. Postmaster General BisselI has
prepared reply IN which he says these
claims are being received. MANY were
on file and have been adjudicated, but
have not been paid. He also saws the |
services of attorneys are unnecessary.

In Violation of the Laws.

Sank Center Avalanche.
The st. Paul GLOBE on Monday came
ont with what it AYERS to be the secret
work OF the 4. 2. a. If the GLOBES
exposure is true state of affairs there
is something radically wrong in the Or
ganiZation. and it should be extermi
mated. ANY number of persons banded
together to trample upon their fellow
men, and who call themselves Ameri-
can citizens, such as the A. P. AS are,
do not deserve the recognition of true
Americans. The GLOBE gives the OBJ
legations in full. Ii such are the
workings of the A. P. A. the sooner the
GLOBE roots out the society the better.
The declaration of principles upon
which this gov eminent is founded for
bids of any such a society, and any per-
son who will take the obligations in
which the above expressions are con-
tanned is rot only violating the laws of
the nation but the state as well. Every
citizen Of the United States is allowed
to vote or worship as his conscience
dictates, and we trust the A. P. A. may
be speedily eradicated.
