MR.. HURST MUST RISE AND Ex-
PLAIN.

Under the caption of "The Sublimity of
CALI correspondent of the Baltimore
Sun is throwing ray of light on Mr..
Hursts Democratic record.
In 1882 it seems Mr. Hurst was chair
of the Merchants Committee, who bottled
the Democratic nominations of that year,
and united with the Republicans in defeat
ing the regular Democratic ticket.
In 1883 also he was President of the
young Democratic Association, which in its
Constitution declared ''that national
politics have no proper place in local
government, and in all elections for city
officers, the association shall be free to
endorse tie candidates Of any purity.
But now (1S95) Mr. Hurst tells lis
Democratic Brethren that 1rsertion Of the
Democratic party is the deseltion of the
principles for which that party stands.
But if this be true in 1895, why was it
not equally true in 1882, and 1888?
Democrats who desert the party in 1895,
MIR. Hurst denounces as Benedict Arnolds.
If 1T is treason to party to refuse to vote
for German Rasin combination nominat-
ION in 1898, why was it not party treason
for MIR. Hurst to repudiate Democratic
party nominations in 1888?
These are plainly put and pointed
questions, which some of Mr.. Hurst's
party Brethren are putting at him, and it
Will be interesting to know how he will
answer them.
In the meantime let the band play.

REPUBLICAN MEET
INGS.

The interest felt by the Republicans of
Cecil county in the success of their ticket,
was clearly shown by the size and enthu-
siasm of the Republican meetings held at
Elkton and Port Deposit, on Thursday.
1t has been long time since meetings
as large and spirited have been seen in
Cecil
The heartiness of the welcome shown
Messrs. Lowndes, Clabaugh and Graham
the enthusiasm excited by their speeches,
the intelligent interest evinced by the hun
dretls OF attentive listeners to the argu
ments made by these gentlemen, all attest
the deep concern our people feel i'll the
election of the whole Republican ticket
Mr. Masters presence at the Elllton
meeting as its presiding officer, and the
timely and forcihle speech he made, We're
particularly agreeable features of it.
No less so, was Mr. Lowndes courteous
and manly reference to Mr.. Master, as his
worthy con petitor for the Guhcrnatorial
nomination, and the recognition by the
former, of the hearty support, which Mr..
Malstet and his friends wer, according him.
No less noticeable, was the hearty COR
diality shown our State candidates at Port
Deposit, and not in the recent history of
that town, has so large and demonstIative
a Republican meeting been held there.
The success of Thursdays meetings, is
the forerunner of greater Republican sue
cess at the polls in November

The Theatrical Man Annoyed by q
Newspaper Statement.


To the Editor of the Globe.
I noticed an article in last even
ing's paper to the effect that I would
say Farewell, and a long farewell
to ST. Paul.. 1 fail to see why this
inference should be drawn, as the most
successful engagements 1 ever played
in summer at any point have been in
st. Paul, having never played a losing
gagement-including the present one
and some of the engagements were
phenomenal The farewell in all
probability, will be about the same
length of time the others have been
one year. have a contract with Man
ager Scott to play the entire summer
at his three theaters, st. Paul. Min
neapolis and Duluth, and am fulfilling
it as originally made. The reason we
are closing in st. Paul (much to my
regret is on account of some altera-
tons and decorations that will be
made in the Metropolitan opera house
the next three weeks. The st. PAU
public has always patronized me In
a most liberal manner, and the ousl-
ness was so large the closing week
that I wished at a number OF per-
formances that the house would hold
more people, and it will be a great
pleasure to me to return to st. Paul
always, where [ have received the
most courteous treatment from both
the press and public. Most respect
fully. A L. WILBUR.

SOLD HER RIGHTS
DECISION OF JUDGE KELLY IN
A SUIT OF MORE THAN Or
BINARY eINTEREST. @
ST. PAUL LOTS INVOLVED.
THE HEIRESS COULD NOT TAKE
ALL IN REACH, THEN
REPUDIATE.
A DECISION OF VIRGINIA COURTS
ment of the Case in This
State.

Judge Kelly yesterday filed a de-
the defendants for costs in the case
of Mrs. Nellie James Ruffner Jack
son against Anastein W. Hogeman,
her sister, and two brothers. The
suit grew out of the division of the
estate Of James Ruffner, who died
in West Virginia in 1868. The es-
tate was valued at $4,000, and in
Guided lots 5, 6, and 10, block 1,
Randall's addition to the city Of
St. Paul. This property was then
valued at only $500. The remainder
of the estate was in West Virginia.
The plaintiff was a minor at the
time Of the settlement Of the estate,
and the mother, as her guardian,
was given the minors share in addi-
ton to her own dover of one-third,
this making just half of the estate.
The other half, including the st.
Paul property, was divided between
the other three children. When the
plaintiff reached her majority, she
demanded and received from her
mother, as guardian, the $4,000 set
apart as her share. She also began
an action to recover $1,016 additional
out of the mothers dover. It turn
ing out that the st. Paul property is
worth several times the valuation
placed upon it at the time of the set
Element, the plaintiff brought an ac-
ton for a partition on the ground
that she had not been given a fair
share.
Judge Kelly finds that after the
plaintiff began her action against
her mothers dover, she sold all her
rights therein and thus placed her
self without the power to restore
the statu quo. AS to the contention
of plaintiff that the action of the
courts in West Virginia in settling
the estate was void as to the lands
in Minnesota, Judge Kelly says that
while court in West Virginia can
not pass title to lands in Minnesota,
yet its action is persuasive with the
court having jurisdiction to pass
such title. He says further that
when the plaintiff reached her ma
jority and was informed as to the
settlement that had been made, she
should have repudiated it at once.
She could not accept everything
there was in sight for her and then
repudiate.
The court comments on the fact
that about all the papers sent here
from the courts in West Virginia in
connection with the case were
mutilated, but the responsibility for
this is not charged to either side.

Five Property Owners Heard on

The board Of public works granted a
hearing yesterday afternoon to a few
of the owners of property on East

willing that the paving should be de-
ferred until next year. All save one
favored asphalt from curb to curb J.
