A few days ago an item appeared in all the daily papers to tho effect that a well to do, sober and industrious millwright named J. Brinkman had mysteriously dis appeared, and from the reason that he had an important sum of money in his posses sion when last seen, foul play was feared by his friends, etc. His where abouts have been discovered and in tie discorery lies a social episode.

Last evening a Bohemian who speaks painfully bad English complained at police headquarters that his 13-year old daughter had left her home against the will of her parents. He said his name was Joe Mat zel and tho girl's name was Mary. He had found her in the home of a plasterer named Coot, on Fifth street and Eighth avenue north, who would not allow the father to take her home. Offioer Howard was detailed by Capt. West to get the girl, Sid to him she explained that she hid run away from her home to avoid t io err el treatment she sustained at the hands of her mother. She said the family who had harbored her were kind, and that her mother had compelled her to occupy a room with men. She seemed intelligent and desirous or living a life of rectitude; bat at the instance of the police who promised her protection returned to her parents. Mine. Gersler in Grand Opera. Since the announcement that Manager Frank Conkiin had met with suooess in securing Col. Mapleson's Her Majesty's Opera company for a brief round of grand operas, our citizens have manifested an unusual intereet in the same. Yet there is nothing surprising in the fact, for Minne apolis has never enjoyed the rare treat of listening to such a Rifted artist as Mme. Gereter, supported by a galoxy of talent embodied in a company which includes 165 people. The enormity of the cost iu securing this attract.en par excellence has compelled the management to piaoe tue seats at a muoh higher rate than our peo ple have ever paid, but it is unlikely that there will be any complaint thereat. The excursion trains from St. Paul and Still water will accommodate the people of those two cities who wish to avail them selves of the rare operatio fea3t. One gen tleman was heard to remark yesterday that he should invest in a large block of seats as a speculation, but the management will disapprove and prevent the people from b••■th/* circumvented in that manner. Thia evening the Pttterson Comio Opera ojmpany of New York, will open its ;,-.if-week engagement at the Grand in the ■ .> irkling opera, from the pen of Johnann - r mss, "The Queen's Lace Handkerchief," i tie story of whioh was epitomized in yes terday's Globe. There is a climax in e ch aot, and the i "'it ia reputed one of the fanciest ever set to atts .-. The oostnmes of the troupe are unique and gorgeous—the doublet and hose pre - dominating. The ladies of the company, from principals to chorus, are said to be exceptionally comely. The attraction will doubtless draw fall houses despite the an nouncement of the Mapleson Grand Opera engagement, from the reason of disparity of the two companies in character, one be ing comic* opera and the other grand opera. Prohibition Conventions. To the Editor of the Globe: The Prohibitionists propose to celebrate Washington's birthday, Feb. 22, by a con vention in eaoh of the congressional dis tricts on that date. The places of meet ing will be as follows: First District—Dodge Center. Second District—Lake Crystal. Third District—Red Wing. Fourth District—Minneapolis. Filth District—Fergus Falls. The object of these meetings is to more thoroughly organize the districts, and to devise ways and means for the organization of towns and counties. They will also provide for prohibition selebrations on the Fourth of July. Each district will choose twenty delegates to a state conference, 'subject to the call of the state central committee, for the purpo.-c of choosing delegates to the national aonvention to be held in Pitts burg iu May. L. W. Denton, Chairman. W. W. Satteblee, Secretary. TJie Worlhington Land Office- To the Editor of the St. Paul Globe: Wobthinoion, Feb. 8, 1884.—The arti cle in yoar issue of the 4th inst., re flecting on the register and rec eiver of the United States land office at this plaoe,oalls to mind something else that should be ven tilated. The reoeiver is field agent and land agent for two land-grant railroad compa nies, and the railroad land office is in the United States land office. In a large dis trict like this where contests between the railroad companies and settlers occur, and where deficeuo*; lands are wanted by the companies, it is a fine thing for them to have a United States land officer for an agent and have the use of government stamps and records free at all times. I understand that the receiver has permis sion from Commissioner McFarland to act us the agent of the "Sioux City and St. Paul" and "St. Pan! and Sioux Oity Eail road Land comanies" and it may be all right. Democbat. Congress and the Cattle Disease. To the Editor of the Globe. The lame measures of the American congress to stamp oat the pleura pneu monia in oattle, may lead to the dire losses, that England and Netherland suf fered twelve or fifteen years ago, when nearly all their stock died from it, and when only by a military 0 irdoa the whole of the old continent was saved from such fate. Qae8tious of national economy are not easily understood and brought to solu tion by congress. They rather shirk the problem and kill time with politioal or demagogioal things, to catch special lasses. J. Hay, the Bread- Winner. [N. Y, World.] Col. John Hay and Mr. Mather, sons-in-law of the late Amasa Stone, of Cleveland, with their wives, receive about $1,250,000 each from the estate, now wttied. That's the kind of "bread-winner" that J. Hay is. A Distinction With a Difference. ITroy Times.] While the over-dressed man is cdled a dude, the under-dressed woman is called a undo. EAU CLAIRE. Col. E. M. Bartlett lost about $2,000, over and above insurance, by the burning of his liouse on Thursday. Considerable snow has fallen here within the past week, to the great inconvenience and an noyance of the public generally. It is now twenty-ona inches in depth. Managers ef the street car lines look upon it as a nuisance, and business men in disgust are having it carted away uud dumped into the river. There is al most double the amount of snow on the ground here that there is at points a hundred miles or more north of us on the south shore of .Lake dup3rior. Tiie judicial pot of the Eighth judicial circuit is boiling and the recent endorsements of Judge Bundy by the bar convention at Menomonte does not promiso to materially brighten that j udge's prospacts in the matter of his own suc cession. The way things are taking shape here now, it is apparent that the bar convention wus a huge blunder. Not much,if indeed any, fault is found with Judge Butidy'e record, aa a ju dicial officer, but a great deal is said about tho dictation of the bar. The Republicans hold a convention for tho purpose of nominat ing a candidate at Durund on tho 2bth. There will probably be three candidates. Hon. H. Ij. Humphey, of Hudson, ex-eongiessman and judge, is perhaps the most prominent of the Re publican candidates, and should the struggle, as is talked of, take tho form of a triangle, the third angle will no doubt be represented by Hon. W. F. Bailey, mayor of this city. In any event the outcome of the approaching contest is a matter exceedingly uncertain. SUPERIOR CITY. The adjourned term of the circuit court for Douglas county willl be held here on Monday, Feb. 11. There will probably be two or three days of court business. The present is already the largest term of court on record for DouglaK county—fif ceen days, and ia the last of the fall and winter terms of the 11th judicial circuit. The rapid development of northwestern Wiscon sin has brought with it a great increase of legal business, and Judge Clough, who resides here, has more than had his hands full for the past two years. Superior is looking up and has great hopes of development the coming summer. BRIEF TELEGRAMS. There is trouble at Buffalo, owing to the West Shore road not paying certain men employed by tha North River Construction company, as the matter is in court. The Italians threaten to tear up the tracks, and the troops and police are out in force. The news from Ft. Worth, as to the attempted poisoning by candies covered with arsenic, of a Miss Fannie Murphy, a teacher, and the daugh ter of a Methodi6tclergyman, is untrue, and was started so as to create sympathy for the young lady on account of other matters. At Portland, Oregon, a special meeting of the board of trade was held yesterday afternoon, representing $15,000,000, -when resolutions were adopted, calling on the Oregon senators and representatives tj oppose the forfeiture of the Northern Pacific land grant, or any part of it. The North Amer.can Gallway Breeders asso ciation of Canada and the United States, have been in session in Kansas City for two .days. They have organized a new association and called it the American association, with thirteen directors, of which David McCrae of Guelph, Ontario, is president, and W. C Weeden, of Kansas City, is secretary, treasurer and editor of the Herd Book. The Coicago Convention, Mr. E. P. Wells, chairman of the repub lican territorial committee, through his home organ, the Jamestown Alert, affects to stand six perpendicular feet upon the fence ia regard to both plaoe and time of the convention to appoint delegates to Chicago, and v,ith rare ingeniousness re lates that his impression that the conven tion must be held in February to select members for a Jane convention, was de rived from a statement in a newspaper. Ha also states that Senator Sabin has not advised him in the matter, bnt does not state that Senator Logan has not Best a bit of inspiration. Mr. Wells' statement that he has "expressed no preference for any of the newspaper candidates for president," is a neat bit of evasion. It is not probable that he regards Senator Logan as merely a newspaper candidate. There is nothing in his declarations that should affect the view that an early con vention is designed to aid the Logan movement, that is now being so indnstri onsly worked up in all possible localities all over the country. It haB been person ally known to the writer for the paai three y-jais that Logan would spare no efforts to seoure tha nomination in 1884, and it is a shrewd move to start an early boom in tho Kid where booming is better understood than elsewhere. The oonvention will be called very soon and its assets will be paraded on the Logan slate. THE ST. PAUL DAILY GLOBE, MONDAY MORNIKG, FEBRUARY 11.1884., [Republished from Sunday Globe.] A SOGIALEPISODE. AN ARKANSAS GAMBLERS' QUARREL ENDS IN THE SHOOTING OF SIX MEN. A Cowardly Attach in Which Winchesters Play the Principal Part—The Men Shot Without Warning—A Noted Desperado the Ringleader—'i he Brutal Murder of Pennington and His Brave Wife—A Des perado Caught. A HOT SPBINGS TRAGEDY. Hot Springs, Ark., Feb. 9.-—A terrible tragedy was enacted on our main street this morning about 11 o'clock. Three, brothers, Frank, Jack and William Flynn, were proceeding home in a hack, when a party of seven men, armed with shot guns and Winchesters, stepped out from the door of a saloon and opened fire. The Flynns were armed, but the attack was fatally unexpected. Jack Flynn was shot through the forehad by a ball from a Winchester, and died in a few minutes. William Flynn was shot through the breast with a Winchester, probably fatally. Frank Flynn received a shot through the hand, inflicting a slight woand, and Frank Hall, driver of the hack, was shot through the baok of the neck, and died an hour afterward. Robt. Hargreave, a bystander, wss Bhot through the breast,and Will probably die. J. H. Craig, a prominent lumberman, received a oharge of buckshot through the back. His condition is considered precarious. The difficulty originated some weeks ago, on account of Frank Flynn endeavoring to prevont Doran from operating a gambling house. It culminated in Doran making a ooward ly attempt to assassinate, failing in which he fled the oity, but returned secretly a lew nights ago. Flynn was unaware of his presence in the city till tho fatal vol ey was opened on him. Intense excite ment prevails, and there are strong threats of mobbing the prisoners. The seven were arrested and are now in jail, S. A. Doran, the two Piutl brothers, Howell, and three others. The oitizens are loud in condemnation of the murder er's cowardly aot. Judge Wood has been telegraphed to by leading citizens, re questing him to adjourn oourt at Malvern, and return here and hold a general session to try the murderers. If he consent the law will probably be allowed to take its course. If he does not, the citizens boldly threoten to burn the jail and hang the prisoners. Hot Springs, Ark., Feb. 9.—Some two years ago, Frank Flynn, James Lane, Chas. Watson and Louis Goodman were engaged as partners in a gambling house. Dissentions arose, and the firm dissolved. Lane continued the busi ness, while Flynn and Goodman opened as a rival house. Lane, jealous of its growing pop ularity, began to circulate rumors affecting its character. Ilynn remonstrated with him, and threatened to break him up unless he ceased. Lane, however, continued to circulate his re- " ports until Flynn and Goodman closed their house. Flynn then took steps to close Lane's house, and succeeded so well as to financially ruin him. Lane left tho city and went to New York, still retain big his in terests here. About six months ago he re turned, and openly boasted that he would soei. have a man here who wonld open his house or would have Flynn's blood. It was soon dis covered that this man was one S. Alex. Doran, a mtn whose record has been one of blood and ciimes in Tennessee, in TexRs and elsewhere. He has murdered men in cold blood and through pure wantonness, a human hyena who fed upon gore. He was never so happy as when imn ing his hands in tho blood of his fellow man. Doran arrived here some three months ago, penniless. It was known to Flynn that he was desperate. Doran, with two others at once opened a gambling house. Flynn, through legal means endeavored to suppress it. A few days afterward Doran met Flynn, aim without a word, drew a pistol and began to slioot. Flynn's right arm was crippled, and he retreated to a neighboring store. Drawing his pistol he advanced on Doran, who in turn re treated. Officers interfered, and both part it* were arrested. Subsequently Flyrm wasplaciii under bonds of J 5,000. Doraa *left the city, and returned surreptitiously on Tuesday,sccom panied by two or three companions. Their presence has been kept concealed, and Flynn was unaware of his presence until a fatal volley poured in. As soon as the hack was fired into Frank and William Flynn jumpod from the ve hicle and opensd liro on thtir assailants, but without effect. The names of the prisoners now confined in jail are S. A, Doran, David and Robert Pruitt, Harry Lanning, Ed. Howell, J. Lucius and John Allison. Jdall is not dead as at first reported, though he cannot live, and Wm. Flynn's oondition is critical as well Har grove's. Craig's wounds are not considered dangerous. EEOAPTUBED. Stbaouse, N. Y., Feb. 9.—Clarence F. Teear, alias Edward Francis,!who escaped from Auburn prison in February, last year, after robbing the prison safe, was recaptured this morning. Teear was shot at several times by the officers, and the fire was returned by Teear. Nobody was hit. He will be sent to Auburn Monday morning. AN OLD CBIME. New Yobk, Feb. 9. —Michael Bookley and James Lheehan were arrested for kill - ing James Young in a saloon Maroh 12, 1873. They tied the oity at the time and only returned a few days ago. THE INQUEST ON THE POISONED. Huntebs Point, L. I., Feb. 9.—Mrs. Anna Hummel, in the inquest on Thomas and Catherine Collier, victims of the pois oning at Laurel Hill, testified to selling two boxes of rat poison within four weeks to a young lady, at dates preceding the death of Dennis* Cowhey, father of Mrs. Collier, and tne deaths of the Colliers. Mre. Ann Rudder, mother of Thomas Coll ier, testified to being called up on Friday morning by Catherine Collier, who said that herself and husband had taken sick after eating snpper the night previous. THE DEFAULTING MOOBHEAD TBEASUBEB. [Special Telegram to the Globe.] Moorhead, Feb. 9. —The bondsmen of Peter C'zizek, defaulting treasurer of Moorhead, have nearly all agreed to apportion the amount of the defalcation pro rata and pay up, and it is be lieved this will be done. Czizek will probably remain in jail till the April term of court. THE HOKEIELE MUfiDER. Fuankfobt, Ky., Feb. 9.—All the evidence obtainable shows clearly that the murderer of John Peannington and wife is a tramp hired by PeanniBgton the day tho crime was committed. The body of the murdered man was found lying in the barn, where he had been at work, With two bullet holes in his head, while his brave wife, who had evidently gone to his rescue aftar hearing the fatal 6hote, was lying in a mangled heap, some thirty yards away from her husband in a dilapidated cowshed. Tho ghou! shot her in the face, but that not killing her, he sifzed a spade and beat her brains out, and then dragged her to tho shed, where she was found with her clothing torn to shreds and spattered with her own brains and blood. The excitement is growing more and intense. Over 5U0 men are now at 1 he scene of the tragedy, and others are scouring the country in search of assassin. Few threats are made, but it is cer tain that if the murderer is captur ed Judge Lynch will officiate. NOTED burglar caught. Wheeling, W. Va.,Feb. 9.—At midnight to night Eggy Conery, brother of Curly Jack, the noted cracksman, was caught by two special officers trying to enter a store in the flooded dis trict. On the way to jail he ran, and the offi cers fired several shots, finally recapturing him and lodging him in jail. The few people out talk of lynching him, but it will not bs done. A STRAW BONDSMAN. iSpecial Telegram to the Globe. 1 New York, Feb. 9.—Joseph Kennell, alias Kuhn, a well known strawbondsman of this city, was arrested to-day and committed in default of $10,000 bail. His capture is looked upon as one of great importance, for during the last two years he has furnished w irthless bonds in something like fifty cases, and a number of criminals have escaped trial by securing their release on bail given by him. By frequently changing his name and location of property offered as security snd by devising an ingenious scheme to furnish snitable proofs of his identity as owner of property, he has been accepted as bondsman by nearly every police justice vn the btjjcii. DISCRIMINATION. Continuation of the Conference of Dakota Farmers with Railway Officiate—The Grievances of the Former Plainly Stated —An Answer to be Requested on Mon day. The committee of tb.6 Grand Forks farm eas convention met at room No. 5 at the Merchants at 10 a. m. yesterday, where Major Hamilton wa3 called to the chair, and where after some discussion F. L. Dana, of Ramsey county, presented the following preamble and resolutions, which on motion were referred back toj a committee consisting of F. L. Dana, of Ramsey, Geo. P. Harvey, of Walsh, and Geo. B. Winship, Grand Forks, for amendment before being presented to the Si. Paul, Minneapolis & Manitoba author ities: Whebeas, gross abuses have been perpetrated under the system, resulting either from the in competency of the agenta, or the general ruios governing the said elevators, thereby depriving the farmer of a legitimate and fair price for his wheat; Whebeas, It is most apparent that Messrs. Pillsbury 4 Hurlburt have most grossly mis managed their olevator system in the valley of the Red river of the north, and caused many thousands of dollars loss to the producers, and, Whebeas, We have investigated the system of elevators under Mr. Sawyer's management at Duluth, and to this committee it appears to have the remedy. We seek protection of the farmer from unjust dealing of agents—the agent is not under bond to make grades and weights good at the destination; he does not pay his own re ceipts; ho must send duplicates of each load of wheat received daily to his principal, and other features which satisfies this delegation of the fairness and honesty this system extends to the farmer, and Whebeas, It is almost the universal custom of railroads to control elevators on their line if not actually own them, be it Resolved, First, That we do demand the im mediate revision of the elevator system as practiced npon tho line ot the St. Paul, Minne apolis & Manitoba railway. Second, That wo most earnestly rocommend tho system in practice by Mr. Sawyer, of Du luth. Third, That it ia the earnest desire of this committee that the St. Paul, Minneapolis & Manitoba Railway company does once take upon itself the same supervision of its elevator •jy stem as in vogue by the Chicago & Northwestern railway, viz: exact that elevator companies shall each day report to general offices the price they are paying at each elevator and price of wheat the same day at markets readied by this time, and to exact that the prices shall be a difference of not more than five cents less (exclusi/eof freight charge) than the markets so patronized, and as a check have the local railroad freight agent report <* aily the prices paid fanners at re spective stations. It was then voted that the following resolutions adopted by the Grand Fork's convention, be presented to Mr. Manvel at once by a committee consisting of James Langton, of Pembina; E. O. Faukner, of Walsh, and W. N. Roach, of Grand ForkB, go that he might lay them before President Hill immediately on his return from the ea9t to-day, bo as to, if possible, arrive at some understanding in the premises at a meeting of the oommittee with Messrs. Hill and Manvel, wbioh was arranged for 2 p. m. on Monday. The resolutions are as follows: First. To endeavor to secure the privilege of shipping grain to Milwaukee or Chicago with out breaking bulk. Second. Allowing responsible parties to erect elevators along their line of railroad, of not lass than fifteen thousand (15,000) bushels ca pacity Third. Endeavor, if possible, to .secure re duction of the present rates of traffic, and to •submit such other grievances as may tuggest themselves to tbera. Also, that if this committee can make such arrangements with said company by which our No. 1 hard, or such grades as may be shipped from the valley can be delivered to the Milwau kee or Chicago markets without the necessity of breaking bulk thereby causing a mixture of grades at St. r/aul or Minneapolis. In quite an animated discussion in re gard to the committee's staying over to if posiible secure an answer, yes or no, to .heir demands and a3 to how soon the re quired changes would be made, the mem oere made some yery kindly allusions to Mr. Manvel, whom they asserted was a friend to the agrioultnral interests of the Red River valley. It was said that if the matter could be decided by him it would be satisfactorily settled and with out delay. But they knew that Mr. Man vel was handicapped. That he was snbor dinate to a higher power, which was Pres ident Hill, who was the big bull in the field to be placated and who would give che positive answer when it was given. The deoision was finally reached that the committee would stay over until Monday, hold another meeting at the Merchants at '■• a. m., and meet the railroad authorities for their answer to the resolutions at the Manitoba office at 2 p. m. Mr. Faulkner, ohairman of a oommittee for that purpose, reported that he had vis ited the freight agents of ail the railroads but the St. Louis that morning and ob tained their tariff sheetB for carrying grain from competitive points in Northern Minnesota and Dakota and laying it down in the central markets. He had been used with great courtesy by the several freight agents, and being an old railroad auditor, it was voted that he should tabulate the valuable information gained and present it to the oommittee of the whole Monday morning. The oommittee visited Minneapolis in the afternoon and visited Pillsbury A mill un der esoort of Mr. Pillsbury personally, and the moat of them returned to St. Paul in the evening, and will attend the morning servioe at Plymouth church on special in vitation of the pastor, Rev. Dr. Dana. On Monday they will take train for home, and to the country whioh raises the best wheat in the world. This faot they know, and that the hard wheat which they raise is the article whioh millers must have for body to mix with a softer grain for a white color, to supply a world's demand for the best flour made. for half of the Want of bnsiness failures of to-day.

Ilges Last Evaning on His Experiences Among the Indiana. Last evening Col. Guido lies gave one of the most interesting lectures at Sher man Hall, that has ever been delivered in thia oity. It was full of fine descriptive and painting of wild scenes, replete with anecdotes, personal adventures,and events of soul-stirring interest. The acoouut of the rescue of little Ernest Amilan from the Indians was a romance in itself, The following synopsis only gives a faint outline of the leoture, whioh should have been heard by all lovers of adventure and travel. Colonel Ilges prefaced his leoture with the remark that the subjeot upon whioh he was about to speak, was probably not a new one to most of his auditors, and that if he himself failed to fulfil the requirements of a publio lecturer, he had hopes that during the course of the evening he would say something new and interesting, whioh might in some degree compensate his kind hearers for their presence. He then took his subject in hand and for one honr and a half gave the audience a word picture of his experience among the Apaches. The introdnotion was the jenrney from Herts Island, New York harbor, in 1865, the crossing of the Isthmus of Panama, with all its troubles in transporting a large regiment, mostly consisting of bounty jumpers, thieves and other outlaws, and their final arrival at San Francisco. He gave some humorous descriptions of the short stay at the Presidio barracks, and explained to the audienoe the position and duties of an officer's servant, who is called "striker," or more commonly "dog robber." After that came the maroh to his post, Fort Grant, passing Fort Yuma, where the the rmometer is 127 degrees below zero, and whence the bad soldier who dies there, takes with him his blaoketg, for feat of freezing ia the in- fernal regions. The description of the many dirt mouatB (graves) along the road, after the column entered the territory of Arizona, was graphio and thrilling. The crossing of the Gila desert with its treach erous mirage or ''fata morgana" and the loss of some of the enlisted men from thirst and hunger after losing their bear ing on this sandy ocean, excited the sym pathies of the hearers. Then came the march into the San Pedro mountains, where Fort Grant is situated, and in the neighborhood of whioh Col. Ilges discovered the remains of Captain Miller (nephew of Senator Miller of Cali fornia), of Dr. Stanton (nephew of then secretary of war), and of nine soldiers and teamsters, who had been surprised and killed two days previous by the Mescal and Touto Apaches. The colonel then proceeded to give a de tailed description of the arrival at the post, and the departure of the California volun teers, whom he came to relieve with his command. Then followed a series of en counters with the Apaches, showing the craftiness of this wily foe, and many of his treacherous and murderous deeds. The most interesting portion of the lecture was devoted by the colonel to the capture of a white boy named Earnest Amaluny, whose family had been massacred a few months before the colonel's arrival in Ari zona, and who himself, a mere baby scarce ly one year old, was carried into the moun tains. It seem?, that the late Int. Lieut. Calhoun, of the 2d cavalry, and a brother in-law of the late Gen. Custer (both fall ing side by side at the well known massa cre on the upper Yellowstone country,) was at that time the post adjutant of Fort Grant, and to him Colonel Ilges entrusted a night attack upon the Apaches in 1867. The expedition resulted in scattering of the marauders and cap turing of the little daughter of a Pinal Apache chief, who was, from the faot of haviiig six toes on eaoh foot, a renowned medicine girl, endowed with healing and other supernatural powers. The possession of this valuable child, of royal blood, gave the colonel an oppor tunity to negotiate for an exchange with the powerful chief. The incidents of the capture of the In dian girl and the recovery of the white boy were listened to with the closest attention by a seemingly pleased audience. Col. Ilges stated that at the time not knowing anything about the history of the boy or the whereabouts of any of his relatives, he legally adopted him, and soon after recov ery send him to school in San Bernardino, Cab, and from there in 1870 to Europe, where he is taken care of by the colonel's and his own relatives, who reside in Ger many and Austria. After several minute descriptions of cam paigns and dealings with the Indians, the colonel proceeded to give his recollection of their modes of life, their habits, their moral (?) natures, their treat ment of women, and finally gave a few in teresting recitals of some of their beauti ful traditions, which came to him from their own lips. It is unfortunate that the audienoe was not greater, but the evening was injudi ciously seleoted, and the lecture and topic were insufficiently advertised and under stood . We learn from the colonel that he will deliver his lecture in German some even ing this week, after whioh he will at once proceed to Washington on bnsiness of hia own, t A Card from Col. Ilges. St. Paul, Minn., Feb. 7,1884. To the Editor of Globe. There has been two statements made lately in the Globe relating to me, for which I am not responsible, and which I ask you to kindly correct. First—I am, unfortunately, not the lieutenant colonel, Eighteenth infantry, but the late lieu tenant colonel. Eighteenth infantry. Second —I did not capture Sitting Bull in person, for that chieftain escaped with about 170 followers across the Canadian line at the timo I defeated and captured the bulk of lus camp at Poplar river, . ontana He, some months afterwards, voluntarily surrendered to the commanding officer of Fort Bt:io-d.

The Investigation by a Committee of the Legislature of Xe\y York into the Work iny; of New York City's Internal Manage ment —The x-asi Election Proceedings LuJd Rare. New Yobk, Feb. 9.—The legislative inquiry into the depar. men: s of tho city and county gov ernmont was made interesting to-day by tho presenoe in the witness chair of Mayor Edson, Johu Kelly, John B. Haskin and Alderman Pearson, the parties to the arrangement in the house of John Kolly,which resulted in the nom ination of Mayor Edson, and tho election of Alderman Kirk, Tammany, as president of the board of aldermen. The mayor said he met Haskin at some time prior to the election at John Kelly's house. At that meeting there was no discussion about tho appointment of a fire commissioner to succeed Gorman. The witness denied the right of the committee to question him concerning his acts prior to the date of his election. He went to Knlly's house at the lat ter's request, and met Kelly, Haskin and other*. He was asked what his policy would be if he were elected mayor. He replied he had ro cer tain hope of securing a nomination, but if he wore elected, he should be, as without pledges. He would treat the Democratic party with jus tice aod equity, and may have intimated that ho might allow things to stand about as they wore. He certainly made no promises about appoint ments. John Kelly deolined to answor any questions as to what occurred at the meetisg at his house. It was a strictly confidential meeting brought about by himself, and he politely declined to make known what occurred there. Kelly said he had met Haskin on the day of the meeting and asked him what he thought of Edson, president of the produce exchange as a candidate for the mayoralty. Haskin said he knew Edson well and was in favor of his nomi nation. The witness asked Haskin to come to his honse and see Edson. This Haskin did. Witness had heard Edson say he was a Demo crat. He would probably uppoint Democrats to fill the places of officials whoso terms were about to expire. Farther than this Kelly would not say. He knew all about the meeting. Some of the Republican aldermen tock part in the talk about the election of the president of the board. The gentlemen met at his house at his request. There were Aldermen Miller, Wen del, Pearson andWaite. They were asked to come to talk over the election of the president, and witness hoped to induce them to vote for the Democratic momber. Haskins iaid, that at the meeting at Kelly's house there were present, Edson, his brother-in law, Wood and Spinola, Nichols, Gorman, Kelly and himself. Tho conversation was opened by Kelly, who said they were there to consider the nomination of Mayor Edson to the mayoralty. He made a few more remarks, and thea spoke of Gorman, Nichols and Bren nan as friends of his, atd wanted to know, if EJson wore elected mayor, whether these men would be retained in their respeotive offices of fire and police commieeiorers, and commission ers of charities and corrections. Edson replied saying that he recognized the fact that Tammany hall and the county Democracy wore Democrat ic organizations of the county, and he could see a reason for uniting these societies. If elected, he said he would distribute the offiies, 6har9 and shaie alike. Kelly did not think this offer specific enough. He wanted to know about the police justices, and Edson gave bis tacit consent to appoint to the ?acancy that occurred a Tam many man, and promised in the same way that Gorman, Nichols and Brennan, should be reap pointed, aa Kelly had urged their reappoint ment. I wanted a more defloite understand ing, and before we left, I said to Edson, "do I understand that you will reappoint these friends of Kelly, who have been good officers, and di vide the police justices between the Tammany and county Democracy?" Edson said he would, and he and I left the house together. Alderman Jas. Pearscn. the newly elected Republican member of tho board, testified that he went with three other Republican aldermen to John Kelly's house to make arrangements for the election of a president of the boaid. Whilo there it was agreed that the other three members should vote for Kirk, a Tammany man, on the understanding that the committees were to be made up by Kirk according to a list prepared by Alderman Waito, one of the Repub licans present. Pearson took no part in the contract, saying that he would not act until he consulted with the remaining four Republican alderman, who were wailing near by for word from the conference. The votes of " the three Republicans, and Kirk's own, elected Kirk the next day. The Haztag Court Martial. Annai'ous, Feb. 9. —The oourt martial of the naval cadets involved in the hazing scrape began to-day.
