During the late Republican convention at Chicago a large and most laughable cartoon was posted up all over that city labeled "The Great National —Last Match of the Season." One of these plates was brought home by one of the St. Paul attendants and can be seen posted up in the show window of A. 8. Nichols & Co.'s flour and feed store 554 AA'abashaw street. The picture repre sents a base ball game in full operation on the Potamue Flats, with the players in spiked slices ami in unique costumes, while all the old rubbish of the flats is scattered about to life. Blame is represented as the pitcher with Arthur at the bat, and Tilden catcher, the latter having on a wise head guard and boxing gloves. Butler is located on first base, with Logan on the second and Payne on the third, while Grant is sprawled on "the earth between the two latter bases, and just ahead of him is Boss Kelly catching in right field and John Sherman in centerfield. The figures are all labeled and the expression and position given them by the artist is not only comical but suggestive. , Building* Permits.

Whereon Bis* Profits are Expected Throng 1!! the Coming' Railroads. Record of Transfers for the Last Week by warrantee Deed. Rather more activity in the real estate market has been observable during the past wccktlmn during the preceding one." -The weather has been more favorable for transac tions, and more persons have made their ap pearance in market, while inquiries have been multiplied and sales increased. At the same time people have manifested a strong tendency to put their money into real . es tate In preference to bank stocks or other se curities. What Is the matter in West St. Paul! This is the question that has been puzzling a good many people in this city for more than a week; and the more they scratch their, heads and puzzle themselves about it the less satisfaction they obtain either from themselves or from anybody else. It is evi dent that something is about to transpire on the other side of the river, but the trouble is to know what it is. For a long time certain ones have been picking up all the ■ property they could get hold of in the low lands below the bluffs on the south side of the river. This work of gaining possession of these lands has been done very quietly and with all the secrecy possible, but now, at last, the secret is out that they have been picking up these lands, and the question is very naturally raised as to what has been the design and purpose of all this secret purchasing, and this it is that no one can find out for a cer tainty. There are a thousand conjectures, and everybody guesses but without any satis factory result. When they all get through guessing and conjecturing, all are at last just' where they were before they started. They are compelled at last to acknowledge that they do not really know what it is that causes the solid men of SI. Paul, and the best in formed real estate business men here to put their money so freely into this class of prop erty thus located. The most plausible theory that has yet been advanced is that the Illinois' railroad is taking steps to come into St. Paul within a short time, and that the line of road that is to be built is to be a trunk line over which a number of other lines will pass for the same destina tion, and that West St. Paul must therefore become, at no distant day, a railroad center of considerable importance. They also argue that really there is the place for the roller mill, which, it is said, is to go in over there very soon, and all the other laige, heavy manufacturing interests; that the dirt is handy with which to fill up the flat to the re quired level. AA'hen it is said that that would be a big job they point to Boston, where acres upon acres have been added to the business area of that city by making a much larger and more costly fill than this, and one a good deal more difficult to make. Besides this, in making this fill here in AVest St. Paul, the available space is increased in two ways. As the dirt is taken out of the bluff it adds to the general area by the additional room it makes by being taken out, as well as it does by filling ■ in. Those who are interested further call attention to the fact that some months ago Mr. A. B. Stickney went abroad, as .they as sert, to negotiate the bonds necessary for constructing the road and securing the right of way for the road. Now, Mr. Stickney did go abroad and has returned. "What he.went for is not generally known, but it is openly asserted that he did, go for the purpose of negotiating the bonds for this road, and that he was wholly successful in his effort. It is further asserted in favor of the theory that the Illinois Central road is coming in imme diately, that the right of way for the road is being bought up as fast as it is possible for attorneys to examine the titles, ana it is as serted that one attorney has in his possession not less than thirty abstracts upon which he is busily engaged to see if the titles are per fect. Those who seek to explain this quiet picking up of property on this flat also refer to the ordinance passed by the city council on the 3d day of January last, "granting to ' the - Minnesota & Northwestern Railroad company the right to construct and maintain its railway tracks upon ' the levee in the.Sixth ward of this city." ' The first paragraph in the ordinance naming one of the conditions upon which the road has the right to build into the city is as follows: "Firsts—That said company . shall com mence the construction of said railroad with in the Sixth ward of said city prior to the first day of June, 1884, and shall continue its construction within said ward, so that at least fifty thousand dollars shall be expended in the construction, of said railroad within the year 18S4, and shall entirely complete said railroad to the northern boundary of the state of lowa within two years thereafter." It will be observed from this that the road is compelled to commence the construction of the road within the Sixth ward prior to the first day of • June, 18S4, and continue the work, so that at least fifty thousand dollars shall be expended in the construction of the road in the ward within the year 1884. ftt is claimed that these purchases and all this flurry about real estate in West St. Paul has been caused by secret knowledge obtained by certain persons of the purposes and inten tions of the railroad men, and in short that the certainty of the construction of the road in the near future will largely increase the value of property ,on the other side of the river. The whole move ment thus far seems to have been vuy sly, and it is reported that a number of people have made very good things out of it. Davis and Brown. This firm has been doing a very active business during the whole week. They sold to A. H. Rogers a lot on the corner of Seventh and Exchange streets for ($14,400. This is a business lot and it is reported that it is to improved immediately. ,"' *. -"' They also sold to Stephen B. Webber, of Chicago, the lot on Fourth street adjoining the German American bank, for $11,500 cash. This will be improved immediately by the construction of a six story block to cor respond with the bank building. ' '■!) {:£?■ The following sales were also made by them: To W. S. Timberlake for $1,600, three lots on AVest Seventh street, some distance beyond the short line crossing. _ These will be im proved immediately by the erection thereon of dwelling houses; four lots, in Arlington hills for $1,800, to Peter Swanson to. be im proved with dwelling houses, and four • lots in AVest St. Paul to L. L. May, for $2,200. Sliort Notes. H. S. Fairchild & . Son have sold- thirty acres of land between St. Anthony and Mar shall avenues, just east of ' Lovering Park, for $33,000, which is a trifle over $1,000 per acre. .< . '. .' ' Messrs. Fairchild & Son have sold four lots op Hastings avenue, to Buell brothers, who will proceed immediately to erect dwell ing's upon them. ] A portion of the foundation of the Syndi cate block is being taken up and it will be "put down on a better starting point.: -' ; . Upon actual count j there are j now in pro cess of construction on west Seventh street, above Seven corners, thirty-five store rooms. ■It is understood that Dr. • Steele', is prepar ing to erect a fine block of elegant dwellings on .-the > corner opposite the - Metropolitan hotel, facing Rice park.; - ; -' A stood deal of -criticism has ', been made THE ST. PAUL SUNDAY GLOBE. SUNDAY MORNING. JUJVE-8, 1884. about the location of Reardon's new block on Ninth street, -between Robert and Minnesota. It is so located that it stands cornering to the line of the street and makes a bad angle with the street, jlt is claimed that the other cor ner should have been brought out so as ■ g" cause the structure to stand square with the street. : In this respect it would have looked much "better, but at the same time it will look as well as the other buildings op that same block, west of it. The buildings on that street, west of Reardou's, , are all in a zigzag form and look strange enough. , ■ 7 The scaffolding in front of Drake's new six story block, on Third street nearly oppo site the Merchauts . hotel, has been taken down, and the block looks very handsome auil imposing. The new block of seven dwelling houses that are being erected by C. D. Gilfillan near the corner of Tenth and Grove streets, are beginning to take form and shape. These houses will be among the most convenient an elegant on account of their location and the manner of thelrdesign and construction, in the city. *".'.*.; The new pavement on Third street, be tween Wabashaw and Sibley streets, has been completed, and the contractor • has com menced work on that part of Third above Wabashaw. - •■ *. .__: official RECORD. ; The official record at the register of deeds' office gives the following official recorded transactions: MONDAY/.

The following is a copy of a letter forward ed from this city to the Pittsburg Post, which a grouping of sterling truth anp logical con clusion, is wojth reading: St. Paul, June 7.The result of the Chi cago convention is a* disappointment to many of the Republicans of Minnesota. Blainr has his admirers here as everywhere, but they are made up of the froth or "hur rah" order, the more solid conservative thinking men of the party show unmistaka ble signs of regret and dissatisfaction, but yet try to preserve a sort of a non-committal froni or in other words have a feeling akin to the boy who prepared to whistle passing through the grave yard. When the head of the ticket was named eveyone here expected that a tail might be attached, that would in a moasure wag the dog. Lincoln, Hawley, or* Harrison was counted on, but it was hoping against hope as the trade was made and the thirty piccers of silver was paid, and the goods delivered. Interviews with leading Republicans here, published this ! morning, only too deeply show the deep j undercurrent of suppressed disgust ot theAork •of yester day. Minnesota, always Republican, be comes savatable ground and if Minnesota wavers in her fidelity, . what must be the the condition of affairs in other less reliable states, particularly the eastern states? Many of the Republicans here admit that the cam paign will be a defensive one from . begin ning to end; and no amount of work on side issues will divert thinking men from' the past crookedness of Blame's career of job bery and corruption. ■ "There is not a Republican here who will not admit a hard fight ahead, as no matter who the Democrats select as their standard bearer, should the Democracy choose j the 'old ticket,' the Democrats of Minnesota will redeem the state or come so near it as to cause the Republicans to concentrate every effort to carry it by even the smallest major ity for the 'job put up at Chicago." "The Democracy have how the opportu nity as never before to carry the country ike a western cyclone. .It can be done by - placing in the field the- 'old ticket' and the old platform, or let 'Old Sammy' name a solid man from New York and match him with another from Indiana, and it is safe to say the battle is won.

Suggestion's for Consideration Re garding: ;' Fire • Extinguishing' Apparatus; Insurance, Etc- To the Editor of the Globe: •-....; ;V | It is fast becoming a question of great import ance to the property, owners in this city whether we as a city havo the protection against fire that should be provided. Most of the -'buildings *in the mercantile centers are being j buit Cwith four stories and upwards, some of them seven stories, it is true* that most of our buildings are well built and with. tho' supervision of the . building Jin spector 'It is 'to .be hoped that still farther im provements will be Wide. Our high buildings should all have permanent • outside stand • pipes, and no . building; over , three stories *in height ought to be allowed without one.. The provision in the building law for fire proof shutters is a wise one, and one which ought to be strictly en forced, and it should have been made to cover not only buildings to be erected but buildings which have already been built. There are many ■fine blocks in this city which to-day are without fire proof shutters alhough badly exposed by in flamable buildings and many : more having fire proof shutters which have not been closed since they were put in their I places, and cannot now be closed. .AVith these defects and others equal ly . glaring it becomes a serious question whether, our fire.', department is large " enough,". or well . enough _ equipped to successfully cope with any large fire which might be started in our city. It is true that our city authorities have done well daring the last year in the way of providing additional appar atus, and men to manage, the | department; that numbers of men and the efficiency of the depart ment has been increased is apparent to every ob server. Still do they appreciate , our' great ; : in crease in population and the concentration of values in our city. The department has now eighty-one active men, one chief engineer, one assistant chief and superintendent of the electric fire alarm system. " . In the way of apparatus we have seven steam fire engines, two chemical engines, one Hayes truck with ladders, one 11. & L. truck and lad ders, two sets of Pompier ladders, with life sav ing apparatus, hose carts, hose and horses, Jame well fire alarm system, with fifty-one stations scattered all over the city. Of the steam fire en-' gines, one is an extra first class "piston" Ahrens, one second size (or class) "piston" Amoskeag, one extra first class . "rotary" * La France, four second class "rotary" Silsbys. The two- piston engines have been purchased during the last year and show them-, selves to be in every way perfect machines, the Ahrens is the only steamer which we learn that can be depended upon to throw a stream into the sixth story of a building without the aid of a stand-pipe, the Amoskeag being a smaller en gine, can probably be depended upon to put a stream into . the fifth story, the other five wonld do well if they can be depended upon for four story work. The chemicals have done good work and are useful in extinguishing incipient fires and fires outside of the water works and cistern territory. Our Hayes .truck ladder has a raising altitude of 85 feet, the hook and ' ladder truck carries an extension ladder of 75 feet, both of these are in good order. '. •., ,:..'; '«•_.- The subject of fire limits is also a matter of serious import, the smallness of the territory covered by our, fire limits makes the erection of larger frame buildings just outside a constant source of menace to that portion of our city in which is contained the great values of our mer chants and' property owners, not to mention the too frequent opening of our fire limit ordinance in the granting of permission for the erection of frame buildings, and some of them of great size to the damage of those of our public spirited citizens who have made permanent improvements in the erection of good brick stores ' and ware houses, some of them in advance of what is re quired by the fire limits ordinance. Although in the most important part of the city the mains of our water works are smaller in size than they should be, our water works de partment are straining everything to remedy this known deficiency and it is hoped that soon an ample supply of water will be given in all the im portant points in the city. ♦.:-.'. St. Paul is now a city of something " over 100, 600 inhabitants and should have- a fire depart ment fully equipped such as is expected of cities of that size. In order to do this we need at the present time at least three more extra first class engines, capable of throwing a stream with ef fective force through 300 feet of hose : into ] the sixth stojy of a building, all of which should be located near the wholesale business center.there by relieving at least two of our smaller and less effected engines to be utilized in districts that now have little or no fire protection, g One of the largest should be placed on : Fourth street, east of Broadway,* a locality - where values in inflammable materials have been accu mulated within a short time, and because it was near our township center, and still outside of the fire limits. One of the smallej - engines ■ should be placed on East Seventh street, across Phalen's creek, near Bates avenue. ■■ This part of the city is rapidly building up, and with the lumber and other Interests ait Post siding should have fire protection. Another of the second class engines should be located near the corner of . Rice - street and Como avenue, so as to be in the vicinity of Elevator B, and the two lumber yards in that re gion. AA'e also need two more chemical engines, with ladders attached, one • for West St. Paul, the other to be located near the corner of West ern avenue and Carroll street. One more hook and ladder truck fully equipped with ladders that will make the top of our highest buildings, to be kept near the wholesale district. Our fire limits should be increased so as to protect the interests where values have been largely increased within a short time, and the ordinance should be consid ered as so binding that it could not be opened under, any circumstances, : withou. these additions this city is still liable to heavy losses by fire, even larger than those of last year, which our mayor reminded the common council of as being nearly $000,000. Unless this addi tional protection by the city is provided, and'pro tection by stand pipes upon our tall buildings, fire proof shutters upon our exposed buildings, mercurial fire ' alarms, and other preventive ap pliances, are put where . needed,, the , time will • come when insurance necessarily must command much higher rates than now. With a net income from this city of less than $500,000 a year, insur ance companies cannot stand j a drain of nearly $000,000 annually. . A sample or. what can be and is done in other cities will serve to show the necessity of farther improvement in our fire protection. In Chicago the wholesale centers are very ■ similar in con struction and altitude of buildi^js to that of our own, having these advantages, that almost every building has its stand pipe, mercurial alarm, and other preventive appliances, including the fire proof shutters, which are there-required by the city ordinances; while in this city these appliances are the exception rather than the | rule. Upon an alarm being sent in in ._ Chicago, from the wholesale district, it is answered by seven engines, each one being equal in capacity to the best one in this city, . three hook and lad der companies and one moveable standpipe.- Should the chief engineer think that there is any liability of that force not being able to success fully cope with the fire he. immediately puts in a second alarm, which -calls'to his assistance six more engines and three more . hook and ladder companies; in case that these are not enough the third alarm calls to his aid ten more steamers, and all of them extra first class. When St. v Paul can call out seven steamers equal to our best one.with three hook and ladder companies : well equipped :• With j ladders and pompiers, one movable stand-pipe, or has per manent stand-pipes upon all her high buildings. With our present small . steamers as auxiliaries, then our citizens and property owners I can con sider that we as « city have fire protection equal to our size and wants, and that we are fairly safe from large conflagrations, larger losses, and high a tes for insurance. ' '.-'•'». CALIFORNIA SCENES. Santa Cruz and its Environs, Santa Clara, San Jose, the Big Trees, Wild Wood Flowers, Etc. . The following interesting . description of California scenes are taken from a private letter written by a Minneapolis lady who is i spending the season in Oakland, Cal. "I have just returned from .'■ an excursion to Santafcruz. , It was a delightful trip. The route lay through the Santa Clara valley and the Santa Cruz "; mountains ■ via - the . narrow guage railway. The pleasure of the trip. was somewhat marred by an ; unfortunate • sea sickness occasioned by riding swiftly around short curves, through tunnels, and up ' grade and then down grade. We passed; through Alameda, . Newark . (Newark is noted as a prosperous car . manufacturing . town) Santa Clara, an old-fashioned looking village, San Jose, a delightful situated city.- removed from the coast by a range of lofty mountains, Wright's Station, a place where many people are now taking homesteads, or rather in "; the mountains : and" valleys adjacent . thereto.' Next we come to a little hamlet ;• named Fel ton. ■?• It is situated at the very ; foot .of j the mountains and its fame for "big ' trees" is world wide. _ In point ; of * comparison £ they rank next to those of the Yosemite. '■_. Felton is not a village of especial consequence, but is a mere pleasure resort, a place" where hotels, band of • music, and extrayagently picturesque j picnic . grounds.. are •',. kept for the express ■ entertainment of _• tourists. The "big trees" are simply .. wonderful. \"l I stood in one together with fifty people.;^ We were standing in close proximity/1 concede, but we stood there, a fact which to an ordi- ! nary Minnesotian would doubtless seem pre posterous. '- The giant tree in ", question ; was none lees than the famous Gen. Freemont, so named from the reason that * the doughty general quartered in its hospitable U environ-' ments. .; Unique windows are cut : In \, differ ent places and the tree is mammoth in every respecttowering up toward the heavens."! A friend and myself paced; Itsj circumference good . length*. ': —and V, It ; is just 48 paces • around :. it The top is green, and it seems to be v^healty.' I gathered some C pieces [of bark and green pine for souvenirs. " There are ' many ... other giant trees in this grove, 1 but general Free-' mont outrivals them all. A lovely mountain stream, marked by the clearness of- its water, runs through the grove. The woods | are fill ed with magnificent wild flowers of , rare beauty—finer than could he cultivated .' In Minnesota/ We spent two hours here, and then two and one-half hours at' Santa I Cruz. I - Santa Cruz Is an | antique city. \ Its every indication, its every feature seems-character ized by ancient associations. ..: As is '•■ the'i case with most places in California, it is ; hil ly,' and the grade of its streets are far.- from levelvery unlike Minneapolis in every re spect. San Jose is an exception to this rule, however. It lies in a valley, as level, _ regu lar and beautiful as you could imagine. , San ta Cruz has an admirable beach. The land extends out in sort of promontories lending to it a decidedly attractive and , picturesque appearance. .. AYe gathered some of the lone liest sea mosses. —and . regretfully - left vast quantities behind. AYe were shown a tree full of silk worm's, cocoons, silk, etc., at a place where they make a specialty .of the silk industry. It was a rare curiosity. We were told that as the ' crop 'in j France had failed this year, they were to transport large quantities of silk to France this year.':. All in all, it was one of the most enjoyable days I ever experienced. During the month of June I shall visit Monterey, where we will spend several hours on the beach. - THE CHURCHES.
