MINNEAPOLIS GRAIN.

MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. H.-Long before the
opening this morning there was good deal
of dancing In the chamber, but not Of the
rhythmic order. There was no soulful music
to inspire the limbs, 1t was rather the prick
which aroused spasrnodic action and on the
whole anything but graceful. The news Of
the day was short in quantity but long on
quality The world shipments are expected
to show $780, 600 bushels for the week. and
that Monday will show a large increase on
ocean passage. These worlds shipments will
likely arrive in time to Relieve the pressure
at Liverpool for September delivery: if thew
do we look for drop, Immediate wants be-
ing satisfied, they will rest. Foreigners have
bought immense quantities of our crop for
future delivery. They can now unload upon
US at a profit, and there are rumors to the
effect that they reswilling to do it as soon

Special Correspondence of the Globe
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 16.-Here
for the first time is presented list
of the steamers that have left this
port and Seattle for Alaska, crowded
with men mad with Klondike fever.
Scarcely a day has passed that tele-
graphic dispatches have not been pub
lished all over the United States
chronicling the departure of these YES
sells, but up to the present time no
attempt has been made to gather this
scattered information and present it
in such a condensed shape that the
reader can grasp in a column the size
of the exodus. AS these lines meet
the eye, most of these ships are sail
ing northward, or have landed their
compliments of gold seekers and they
are pushing forward to Elondlke. A
list of the steamers and the number
Of passengers each carries is as fol-
lows:

but discussions at home and trouble
abroad. So great was the objection to
his methods, that finally he was re-
moved by council of ministers and a
few days afterward found dead in his
apartments in the Yildiz Kiosk. At
first it was said he committed suicide,
but later it was learned that death had
come to him at the bidding of the bow
string, the favorite Oriental method of
causing Objectionable persons to shuttle
off this mortal coil. Add ul-AZiz was no
worse than many of those who have
occupied the first position in the Turk
ish empire, but in his case the time
was out of joint and he was not the
man to right it.
The United States furnished the as
sassination sensation following that of
the Turkish sultan. From Guiteau's
pistol came the shot that was heard
around the world and fatally wounded
President Garfield, July 2, 1881 The
story of that time is as familiar to
the American as the battle of Licking

so profoundly as by this action of a
man who, clearly insane in degree,
nevertheless represented that same

THE STORY OF THE ROSE.

The rose full blown and satiate with delight,
scattered her silken petals on the night;
Each rose-leaf as it fell
dainty lovers secret had to tell.
I, said the first was an outcast leaf;
To me in bud she whispered all her grief;
l. said the second, knew
Her tears and took them for the drops OF
dew.
I. said the third, was opening fair and wide,
When she passed b. at purple eventide;
l. said the fourth was ware
OF him among the shadows lettering there.
I. said the fifth, blushed rosy-red to hear
Such tender. passionate whispers murmured
near;
/, said the sixth. 1 viewed
Her doubts and signs kissed into quietude.
l. said the last, shook out each honeyed fold
That hid the glory of my heart of gold
And heard him breathe above
GOOD night. sweet Rose; but sweeter is my
love!'

The Short Stops of the Train.

Sustained journey speed, from end TO
end of a run, is not merely matter of
high speed between stations. 1t involves
also making the station stops short
The more stops there are the more inn
portant is promptness at stations. The
observant man who travels much can
not fail to notice the effect on trainmen
on station men and even on passengers
of habitual fast running. All hands get
trained to alertness and precision of
movement 1t is fine thing 10 watch
the handling Of very fast train at a
station. 1t is invigorating TO see the
speed without haste of the inspectors
and the baggagemen, the quick and
smooth change Of engines and the cut
ting off of the dining car. l have seen
the other extreme on Southern rail
road where the easy going conductor
ran past a flag station and then backed
down mile TO let off one passenger.
His serene indifference to time did not
make me feel any safer Oh his train. -

Soldiers Reds.

The soldiers bed varies notably in the
different European armies. According
to Dr. Viry, the following are the prin-
cipal varieties, in which, perhaps, we
may see the reflection of national char
acteristics. I'm England the bed is hard.

rests OH canvas stretched over frame.

bed, but he is allowed besides this pill
low, two sheets, two blankets and a
covered quilt, sometimes even a cover
for the feet. 1t is almost sybaritic. In
Germany and Austria he has a simple
straw bed with one or two covers,
neither sheet nor mattress. In Russia,

suit Of contact with more civilized
