SPENT A LIFE DOING GOOD
THOSE WHO KNEW MRS. ALONZO
j. SMITH DEFEND HER
MEMORY
THINK A GREAT WRONG DONE
Still Held in the Highest Esteem
by Those Among Whom
Her Life Was
Spent.
THINK A GREAT WRONG DONE

To the Editor Of the Globe: Can you
explain the reason for the attempt to
besmtrch the reputation of the late Mrs.
Alonzo Smith, of Excelsior, in which all
the papers seem so ready to lend hand?
Here is a woman who for fifty years has
borne an unblemished reputation, who
has been and still is held in the highest
respect by all who knew her in St. Cloud,
where most Of her life was spent. Up
to this time not a single breath Of re-
proach has been raised against her. Her
life was spent in doing good, and she
has helped many to better living. Yet on
the evidence of these lodging house keep
ers, she is condemned as an habitual
drunkard and the dailies vie with each
other in heralding it far and wide. Such
evidence wouldn't go very far In any or
binary court room, and I don't believe
that any Of those concerned in fastening
this stain on the memory of this good
woman would allow it to count for much
were any friend of theirs similarly placed.
Those Of US who knew Mrs. Smith and
her family know that such a charge as
is made against her character is simply
inconceivable and absurd. I made can
vass of the st. Cloud people now living
here, eight or ten in all; one doctor,
another a lawyer, others members of a
large manufa curing concern here, and
you couldn't pile up evidence enough to
make them believe anything wrong of
Mrs. Smith, so high did she stand in
their esteem. AS you have given wide
circulation to this matter, I ask you to
publish this and let the public know how
her old friends and neighbors up this way
feel about 1t. There has been an awful
mistake made, and you may depend Mrs.
Smiths name will be cleared yet. Yours
truly, Duncan r. Macnab.

IN SONG, AND TABLEAUX
GERMANS CELEBRATE THIRTIETH
ANNIVERSARY EMPIRES BIRTH.

ANNIVERSARY EMPIRES BIRTH.
The thirtieth anniversary Of the proc
lamation Of William L, as emperor Of
Germany, at Versailles, Jan. Is, 1871,
marking the practical birth of the Ger
man empire, was celebrated in song and
tableau at Mozart hall last night.
The entertainment, or rather celebra-
ton, was under the direction of the Ger
man-American Centra1bund Of Minnesota,
and was participated in by circles from
Minneapolis and st. Paul. and also. in
dividual members from kindred organiza-
tons throughout the state.
The tableau all represented scenes IN
connection with the occasion which the
society all over the state is celebrating,
and in point Of costumes and staging
were quite elaborate, particularly the
reading Of the proclamation by Emperor
William l.
The Concordia Singing society, with
over forty voices, contributed to the oc-
casion, they responding to numerous en-
cores. A quartette, composed of A. Fr1t-
sche. J. Wegman, J. Rodenkirchen and
Nachtsheim, Miss K. Becker, M. Fritche
and E. Hennisch, were among the pleas
ing features Of the entertainment.
A solo by E. Hennisch and also one
by Miss z. Becker, the latter singing
the national air, "Wacht am Rhein,"
completed the programme. The rendition
of this national song was peculiarly fit
ting to the occasion, and the fair singer
was roundly encored.
At the, close of the entertainment the
floor was cleared Of chairs and the re-
matnder of the evening given over to
dancing and social enjoyment.

ACCIDENT 1T The DEPOT.
TWENTY-FIVE FEET TO

CIRCUMSTANCES ARE STRANGE
window She Fell From Is Dtmc uIt
OF Accessible Is From JOl-
let, I1.-She Was Go
ing Home.

Mrs. Minnie Drumgial, supposed to
be from Joliet, Ill, was very mysterious
ly injured at the Union depot about
o'clock yesteday afternoon, by dropping
from a second story window to the mar
bic floor below. The st. Joseph's hospi-
tai ambulance was Immediately summon
ed and the unconscious woman taken
there, where DR.. OBrien attended her.
DR.. O'Brien stated last evening that she
had a bad scalp wound, but that he
could not find any fracture of the skull.
She is IN a very precarious condition
and according to the physician is not
exactly right mentally. Whether this
is from her fall is not as yet known. The
accident is surrounded by q number Of
puzzling circumstances and the way in
which the accident itself is said to have
happened seems to be most peculiar.
The story told by the persons around
the depot at the time Is that the window
was supposed to have been open and
she, in looking out, had lost her balance
and fallen.
The window in question is in the toilet
room adjoining small womens walt
ing room on the second floor and opens
into the large general waiting room be-
low. The distance to the floor below
is about twenty-five feet. There is an
iron railing on the lower window about
two feet above the window sash. The
supposltion is that she got up on q
chair that was standing by the window
and looked out. The distance to the
open window where she could get
through, however, is at least five or
six feet and some of the people around
the depot believe that it was not an &C
cident.
From a ticket and other information
found on the injured woman, she was on
her way from Anaconda, Mont, to her
home, 304 Pleasant street, Joliet, Ill. Her
husband is supposed to be working for a
Patrick Cochrane at that place. She
appeared to be about thirty years old.
1t was also stated that she sent tele-
gram to Mr.. Cochrane yesterday.
She claims to have friend in st. Paul,
a Mr.. Hewitt, who she says is a news
paper man, and also that she has q
woman friend in this city.
