To the Editor of the Globe
If owned the city of ST. Paul outright and
$50,000,0o0 to expend what would 1 do with it?
The hypothesis is too much exaggerated to adI
of discussion. 1 hardly think a city owned by
could be an ideal city. Bossism is never loos
upon with favor. and such state of affairs as yc
question contemplates would be bossism In the
treme. Moreover, ST Paul could be made as nea
an ideal city as it is possible to have it without
expenditure Of $50O00,000. Physical improvement
alone, no matter how great could not make it
ideal city, but they would help and if they we're
a character that would tend to promote the int
lectua and moral welfare of our citizens they wOl
serve double purpose.
A public library building would be an impro1
ment of this character. 1 do not mean simply
building that would accommodate the library

now but mean building that would be con1ine

When CARRIER Made His Alleged
Promise to McGarry.

The decision of the United States
Circuit court In the case of the City
vs.. the Central Union Telephone
company maylplaylan important part
in the CARRIER case.
The. attorneys for CARRIER will
claim that nothing was pending be-
fore the Board of City Commission
ers ut the time CARRIER is alleged to
have promised q bribe to Dan Nc
Garry.
The Court held thatthe ordinance
passed Nov. 10, 1893, by the Council,
was a valid one. 1t had received the
approval Of the City Commissioners
previous to the time that CARRIER is
alleged to have made the promise to
Commissioner McGarry. 1t is true
that the recommendation of the
Board was afterwards withdrawn,
Il
but the Court held that this action
did not affect:the ordinance In any
way. This being true, the defense
Will maintain that the matter had
passed entirely out OF the hands of
the Board at the time of the alleged
oifense OF CARRIER. They will claim
that Commissioner McGarry could
not do anything, In his official capac-
ity, for or against the ordinance.
Prosecutor Wanamaker says tho
case will be tried and that the deci-
sion of the United States Court will
have no effect In the matter.

THE SENSITIVE PORGIE.
A beautiful Fish That Is Easily scared
aud Particularly Subject
to Blindness.

The porgie, common as it is, is a
beautiful fish when seen in the water
in a favorable light, and ii is likewise
one Of the most sensitive of fishes, says
the New York Sun. In captivity il is
easily frightened, 1t will take alarm
from something done by a passing Wis
itor, a thoughtless touching of the
glass, or something of that sort, and
go rushing around until ii is exhausted.
Sometimes a porgie in a tank may,
when frightened, jump out of water
and bump its nose against the wire
screen over the tank and be seemingly
paralyzed by the shock and rendered
unable to swim. In such acondition il
will lie upon its back, motionless, en-
cept perhaps for huttering of its fins,
for an hour, and then ii may come
back all right again aud swim about
so lively and in such good form that
YOU can't tell then which fish of the
lot it was that had bumped its head.
A popularity of the porgie is its Ii
ability to blindness. Blindness is not
uncommon among fishes. but there are
perhaps more blind porgies than there
are fish of any other kind, There's a
saying among fishermen: AS blind as
porgie.

DAFFODIL LAND.
A New York Artists Description OF
the Charms of the Sicily
Islands.

\ letter written by New York artist
who is painting there gives an enthusi-
astic description of the Sicily islands
which have, SO far, been comparatively
unknown TO American tourists Even
the English have been slow in realizing
the charm of the islands so near their
own shores. but ii seems that this
spring many artists have gone to dat
fodil land" and the winter exhibitions
will probably be flooded with pictures
OF the islands. Datfalils have always
grown in great profusion in the Scilly
islands. February and March are the
height of their poisoning time, and,
to quote the artists letter:
THE whole land is blazing sea of
brilliant yellow daffodils, surging up
upon gray rocks and falling back in
foambursts of white narcissus. Even
the tulip fields in Holland don't give
such gorgeous effects of color. You
should stand on one of the little hills
here and look across the sunlit fields If
you want 10 see the loveliest things IN
the world; yet, sometimes | think the
tiower-drifted land is more beautiful
under moonlight than in the daytime;
and, daytime or nighttime, the air is

EMULATE WILLIAM MORRIS.
Many Designers Change IL Their
Work from Valentines to
Wall Papers.

4 leading manufacturer of wall pa
per has THIS to say regarding the pref
~, fanciful designs that decorate
household walls:
MANY of the best designers were
once comic valentine artists. The pay
for the latter work is meager, but the
artists do not entirely depend on
sketching for a living
The majority are untitled for high
class work, but one here and there
drifts into black and white. Wall pa
per designers earn good wages. Five
years ago a valentine artist threw up
the ugly caricatures in disgust; he
earns from $25 to $50 weekly now, his
floral patterns being at once striking
and original.
ANY girl designers? \ few here and
there: we are told of a young lady,
who, formerly a Christmas card artist,
turned her attention to wall patterns.
Though less artistic than bird and
landscape painting, it pays her better.
Light designing is very suitable for la
dies with an eye for pleasing patterns"

90 The house of Hohenzollern possesses
a family talisman. Since the time OF
the Elector John Cicero, who Hour
is5hed toward the end of the fifteenth
century, each ruler has, when possl bic,
before dissolution, handed TO his sue
cessor a sealed packet, says the Lady >
Pictorial.
This contains ring, in which IS set
a black stone said to have been dropped
by huge toad on the coverlet OF a
princess of the family just as she had
given birth to a son.
Frederick the Great found the ring
in an envelope, which also enclosed a
memorandum, written by Frederick l.,
stating it's value and mode of trans
mission Schneider, the librarian of
William l., declares that he saw the
packet handed by Ceiling, the treas
urer, to his royal master on his ac-
cession, and further asserts that he
read his account of the talisman to the
emperor, who fully confirmed it.
The present emperor never fails to
wear, ON all occasions, this queer old
ring, and has Qike every Hohenzollern)
the deepest respect for the quaint lit
tie jewel.
Frederick the Greats faith had the
black stone mounted as ring. and be-
queathed il to his son, who believed
firmly in it's value as talisman, and
many of the documents of that time
deposited in the archives at Berlin
make allusion to it.
