In an exchange recently we not
iced that a woman nearly eighty
years old was adjudged insane and
committed to the insane asylum.
In another exchange we noticed
that application had been made to
the reform school to take charge of
youth of the tender age seven
years. These are the marks of evils
that have been permitted to grow
up within our state. The woman
Of eighty might have been insane,
but we believe that it was nothing
more than childishness brought on
by the years that has rolled over
her head and fastened, 10 doubt,
by that very spirit of her children,
that sought to place that mother
which brought them into the world
and cared for them as only moth
er can, into that most hideous OF
places, the insane asylum. That a
woman of eighty years of age
should be so dangerously insane
as to require shutting up within
the stone walls of an ASYLUM is alb
surd. We venture to say that if the
love and care that a mother is en-
titled to from her children had been
bestowed upon her she would have
been as sane as the average woman
of eighty is. AS for the parents
that would seek TO place a child o.
the age Of seven in the reform
school, the thing ought 10 be re.
versed. The child should be plac
ed in the hands Of those Of sufTici
ent intelligence and frmness tc
properly govern him, and the par
ents placed in some sort ola reform
atory.

THACHEI,'s AWARDS
Too Collective for Northwestern
Commissioners.

CHICAGO, Oct. 6. - The executive
committee of South Dakota, Iowa and
Wisconsin met Supt. Hunt and National
Commissioner KurtZ i'll the Minnesota
building this morning to discuss the
subject of individual awards in the ag
ricultural department. All were unan-
imous in declaring that exhibitors must
obtain recognition of some sort. A
medal for each exhibitor will be de-
manded, and if this cannot be granted
a compromise will be suggested in the
form of industrial recognition on state
diplomas for collective exhibits. Com
missioner Kurtz was left TO act
as he thinks best. The awards
in horticultural and mining are
also being Jumped on the same plan
as that to be pursued in agriculture.
Minnesota awards in small fruit were
announced a few days ago, but since
then two more awards have been
granted in the name of the state. One
is for the 1892 exhibit of miscellaneous
fruit, the other for the 1898 raspberrieS.
In this way fifty or sixty individual eX-
hibits have been grouped. An award
has also been given the state for the in
genious horticultural booth-an honor
given no other state. In the mining de-
partment Minnesota has obtained a
promise that the names of all her mines
will be listed i'll the awards.

ON THE WARPATH.
An Attack by the Matabetes
ArouSes Enoland's Ire.

CAPE TOWN, Oct. GA dispatch from
the front says tibet the Matabeles have
attacked patrol of the Bechuanaland
police while the latter was on its usual
round. The attack took place in the
northern part of Bechuanaland and
was replied to by the police. who eX
changed several vOlleys with the
natives and, after short skirmish.
caused the Matabeles to fly to the bush.
: The attack upon the police occurred
in the vicinity of Shasta. The affair de-
rives Importance from the fact that it
was directed against the imperial force
which has been protecting Chief khama,
ami it also indicates that King LOben-
gula intends to attack Tati and the
country government control. The po-
: lice will be strongly reinforced by
Knama'S warriors, and some severe
fighting is anticipated.
An official communication has been
received here from the British colonial
Office saying that it had been decided
that force of imperial troops, police
and troopers is to occupy Tati as soon
as possible.
This assistance will greatly strengthen
the chartered .conpaBy's forces and will
leave the latter freer hand in opera
tioiis against the Matabeles. 1t is re-
. BOk tCo tuC Will IOliOW
up the occupation of Tati by sending a
strong corps of imperial troops and
police to cooperate with the company's
force in chastising the rebellious war
riors of King Lobengula.
Volunteers we'll armed and mounted
are fiOcking from all parts of the colony
to Forts Victoria. Chatter and Tati, and
news of an encounter between the
Matabeles and colonists is expected at
any moment.
The colonists are few in number,
though we'll armed, but they will find it
no easy matter 10 cope with the Mata-
sbel warriors of King Lobengula, as they
iare well armed, some of them having
repeating rifles, and they are hardy
race, trained and drilled to arms from
childhood, and capable OF enduring the
greatest hardships of march. The
population of Matabeleland is about
100000, and every male of age is SOL
.dier until too old to bear arms.

HEARD IN ST. PAUL.
Bankers and Officers of the La
UncommunicatiVe

Bankers and Officers of the Law
UncommunicatiVe
For some reason there was an air of
mystery about the arrest of De France
among the officials and bank people of
this city. +. w. Anderson, president
of the st. Paul National bank, is out
OF the city, and the supposition
is that he is in Detroit. His
son. A. G. Anderson. cashier of the
bank, seen yesterday afternoon, refused
to have anything to say about the case.
1t was possible, he said, that he might
have some information to give out today,
but even that was not at all certain.
Shown the telegram from Detroit. pub
liShed above, last night, Mr.. Anderson
still remained very uncommunicatlve.
The amount obtained from the bank by
DE France was not, he said, $4,000, as
stated i'll the telegram, but only
1000, and he was certain the
bank would not lose cent
in the end. Asked as to how the clue
was obtained which led to De frances
arrest, 6Ir. Anderson declined to say.
One thing he was certain of, and
that was no person who Swindled the St.
Paul National ever succeeded in getting
away. From what he did not say,
rather than what he did, it was inferred
that De Frances arrest was caused by
some crime being discovered other than
the one he is wanted for in St.Paul. An
officer of the bank went to Detaoit some
days ago, and it was on Information
given him that the arrest was made for
the forgery committed here. The forged
draft which De France lett with the st.
Paul National was an excellent piece of
work, and so cleverly was the paper
executed that the cashier of the Indian
apolis bank, when the forged paper was
shown him. was forced to go to the rec
ordS in order to assure himself that he
had not signed the draft.
Deputy Sheriff Frank w. Kinney,
who went to Detroit, is expected home
with his prisoner the first Of next week,
and it is understood the matter has been
under consideration by the grand jury,
and an Indictment will be returned
against the prisoner.
A report comes from Minneapolis that
the Flour City National bank was loser
by De France to the extent of several
thousand dollars.

disposition on the part of foreign inter

so far as unfavorable news from the
senate chamber inspired the bears to

KISSED A PRETTY CONVERT

a Committee Of Ministers Decides

Special to the Globe
HURON, S. D., Oct. 5.-Thc annual
conference of the South Dakota Metho-
dist Episcopal church, which meets i'm
BrooklngS on the 1lth inst, will have a
churcn Trial upon its hands that will
engroSS more than local attention.
Charges have been preferred against
Kew. A. E. Burrows, an evangelist.
Tor conduct unbecomlng a minister of
the gospel, and especially when that
gospel Is viewed with eyes made brill
liant by Methodist faith. Mr.. Burrows
enjoys some notOriety as successful
preacher and evangelist, and as such
mas visited many of the larger towns III
tlllS part of the state, his laborS result
ing Ill convincing many people of
the evils of their way and turn
ing their feet into the straight
and narrow path. Nine. Rumor on
more than one occasion has intimated
that the methods employed by the rev.
erend gentleman for the conversion of
souls were not i'll strict keeping with
LeVitlcal law or the doctrines of st.
raul. Nothing questionable, however,
came to the surface until during a re-
VlVal at GettsyDurg, the lively capi-
tai of Porter county. 1t was dur
ing this meeting that the preacher
became overzealouS and more than Or
dlnarlly interested in the conversion of a
pretty young lady of that city. He
talked, quoted scripture and prayed
with her, and at last succeeded in sub
DUNG her stubborn will and getting her
to come forward" 1t was then, for
JOY over another soul born into new
life, that he forgot his ministerial obli-
CATION and deliberately
IMPLANTED A FERVENT KISS
upon the soft cheek OF the damsel. The
lady not objecting to this familiarity,
the man of prayer repeated the oscu-
latory operation again and again. The
repetltions were SO often that the young
lady ''squealed," and soon the whole
town was stirred with Indignation. An
explanation was called for, and the
preacher acknowledged having COM
mltted tile act, but in doing
SO had only the good of the lady
at heart, and not the least evil
intention or thought toward her was in
his mind; and his friends believe he is
sincere in this statement. In order to
get at the facts the matter was referred
to committee of ministers for investi--
cation. Mr.. Burrows and the lady each
gave their version of the episode.
and, after weighing all the evil
dence presented, the verdict was
that the preacher had been "indiscreet
but not criminal" This verdict re-
mains in force until the conference
shall pass upon the case. The affair
has caused no small amount of COM
ment, and has furnished gossip for
more than one community, the preacher
being criticised for his indiscretlon and
the lady for telling of it.

IN the WORLD OF TRADE.
STOCK or MONEY IN NEW YORK BANKS
INCREASING Rapidly.
More Activity Reported by Brad
street in the Western Cities
Improved Trade Distribution
in Northwestern Centers -
Speculation Has Been Dull
Owing to Uncertainty.


Owing to Uncertainty.
New YORK. Oct. 6.-R. &. Dun & Co. s
Weekly Review of Trade says: 1t is
difficult to detect any signs of improve
ment. While there has been some ad-
dition to the number of manufacturing
establishments and the number of hands
at work during the past week, 1t is be-
coming painfully clear that the orders
obtained do not suffice to keep EN-
ployed at full time even the limited
force at present engaged.
Reports from other cities disclose a
distinct check in business. There is, on
the whole, less activity and less conf
dence regarding the future than there
was week ago, and this is in many
cases attributed to the uncertainty re-
garding the monetary feature which
delay in the senate causes. The stock
of money in New York banks has in
creased rapidly, and the retirement of
clearing house certificates here and at
other cities shows great improvement
in the monetary situation.
There is not such encouragement as
might be desired in the industrial re-
ports for the week. An increased num-
Der of establishments is reported in
operation. but the sagging of prices in
print cloths and some other cotton
goods. and III the most important prod
ucts of iron and steel, dlscloses greatly
retarded business. The demand for iron
products is on the whole less SatiSfac-
tory than it was
A WEEK AGO.
Steel billets are selling at Pittsburg
for SIS per ton. and there is practically
no demand for rails. In manufacture of
wool there is still remarkable hesitation,
and the demand for consumption Is
much restricted, so that the purchases
OF wool at the principal markets, not
withStanding some speculative buying,
have been only 2,626, ,995 pounds against
6,2S2. 400 for the same week last year.
The movement of wheat has been
fairly large, and the price has declined
about 2 cents, While corn has also
yielded about 1 cent. Cotton is &c
higher. without distinct reasons in crop
prospects, and pork products are also
somewhat higher, pork rs cents barrel.
Oil has advanced sharply, and after
some reaction closes 2 cents per barrel
higher than week ago. 1t is possible
that the surplus currency in circulation
has its natural effect in stimulating
speculative activity. Happily. the
changes thus far have not diminished
the exports of products, which continue
fairly large.
: Failures eontinue to decrease In num-
!, ber and importance, though not as
much as has been huped. The number
reported in the United States during
the mast waak has hRpn 3o0 AGAINST 1874
for the same week last year, and in
Canada 45 against SO last year. The
disposition to include ali banking and
financial failures with those of COM
mercial and manufacturing concerns
during the past year has led to state
ments which do much injustice to mer
camille interests.

QUEER RAIN THEORY.
Preparation From Fighting Sol
diers Civ en- as q Cause.

Preparation From Fighting Sol
diers Civ en- as a Cause.
Boston Globe.
A most extraordinary theory has re-
Gently been propounded to explain the
reason why rain usually falls after a
severe battle has been fought.
The ancients used to attribute the
phenomenon to the generosity of some
deity who was kind enough to make
the attempt to wash away the traces of
mans degradation as soon as possible !:
and, later on, when cannon came to be
used as means of destroying life, the
detonatiOns of those machines were said
to cause the wonderful downpour of
rain.
But more prosaic, up-to-date people of
today put it down TO perspiratlon. And
this is how they go to prove 1t.
One soldier will, in course of twelve
hours tighing, give off six gallons of
water. He drinks much. Thirst for
gore. glory and water go together on
such occasions, and the total amount of
moisture given off by one man Is said
to be sufficient to cover twelve souars
feet thee quarters of an inch deep.
Now, of course, all this perspiration
evaporates and goes up into the at
mOsphere. The atmosphere. becoming
unduly charged with moisture, offers
itself onthe slightest provocation to the
formation of clouds, and in nine cases
out of ten rain falls Immediately con-
densatlOn sets in.

The Lucania left Queenstown at

previous run was made by the
American liner Paris in October, 1892.
The Paris then crossed the Atlantic in

SULTAN MUST YIELD,
Or Spain Will Make 1t Lively for
His People.


MADRID, Oct. 6.-The finance minis
ter has declared that until parliament
meets to vote supplies the government
will have at its disposal for the Moorish
expedition 90,00O.000 pesetas. Several
steamship companies have offered to
the government steamers which may be
used for the transportation of men and
supplies. Only one strong brigade of
troops is going to Melilla at pres
ent. As fast as provisions and war
material can be prepared they will be
forwarded to Morocco. The remainder
of the army corps will be held in readi-
ness at Cadiz and Malaga for convey
ance to Melilla, or elsewhere in Moroc-
co. should the sultan fail promptly to
satisfy the demands of Spain for repa-
ration.
Advices have been received that
agents of the sultan have arrived at
Frejana, place close to Melilla, and
are pressing the Arab chiefs to deslst
from hostilities. Their mission has had
a good effect, and some of the tribes are
returning to their homes.

New YORK. Oct. THE Herald's
Montevideo dispatch says: Information
reached here late tonight that Admiral
Mello, commanding the insurgent
squadron i'll the bay of Rio Janeiro, has
ordered Peixoto TO abandon the city
within forty-eight hours or the fleet will
resume bombardment of the city.
The diplomatic corps is in favor of
PeiXoIo Withdrawing from Rio, as 1t
believes such a course ON his part will
terminate the war. PeiXoto, however,
refuses to yield, and is making fresh
preparations to carry on operations with
greater vigor than he has yet shown.
One of his new projects is to combat
MellO's fleet with ships. as well as with
the shore batteries. To this end the
government has ordered the OrganiZa-
ton of naval division of the North.
which will be placed under command
of Admiral GOnsalves Duarte. The

In Honor of ParnelI.

CORK, Oct. 6.-The front of the In

the memory of Mr.. Parnell. Promi-
nently displayed were the words: Done
