It would seem from the warm and fn
t'uusJasUc reception tendered Got. Cleveland
at Ma home in Buffalo that the Rev. Ball has
not succeeded to any great extent in shaking
the confidence of the friends and neighbors
of Gov. Cleveland in his hcra<-stv, integrity
and moral worth,
The hyena act of Mr. Ball in exhuming
the rotten remains of an old scandal, long
since buried, has recoiled with telling effect
upon him and upon the party whose interests
he desired to promote.
Probably there never was as large and
enthusiastic a greeting accorded to any
American, living or dead, judging from the
reports received throuirh the Associated Press,
which is not in the habit of exaggerating the
numbers in attendance, at Democratic meet
ings. It must have been very gratifying t/>
Gov. Cleveland to be the recipient of such an
ovation at the hands of his friends and neigh
bors who have known him from boyhood.
Of all that mighty procession there was not
a single voter for Blame.
Another hopeful sign was to be seen In the
great attendance of laboring men, who have
come to recognize in Gov. Cleveland a warm
and devoted friend, and an earnest advocate
of their interests, and, who, having become
dfsgajted with the dishonesty of Mr. Blame,
now yell lustily "turn the rascals out."
"vo av AiL.im.i: fvsi>s.»
The case of the defaulter, Capt. Howgate,
is one of the many instances of glaring lie
publican rascality which has almost lapsed
from the public mind through the masterly
inactivity of the government. This liowgatoi
Fugitive, it will be. recalled, with some effort,
there are so many like him, and it is quite a
while ago, was "guilty of conduct unbecom
ing an officer and a gentleman." Not to put
too fine a point upon it, he was, in fact, a
common thief. At least that's the way the
common civilian, tax-paying mind regards
it without any circumvention of officer first,
and gentleman l;ist,and the common civilian
mind is not quite clear why one name cau
not telescope the other — so to 6peak.
Early in September Solicitor Neal,
of the treasury department,
felt that he ought to follow Mrs. Chick's ad
vice and "make an eff>rt." So it was tele
grap'ui d from Washington with an air of
energetic importance that the aforesaid soli
citor bad determined to institute suit to
recover $12,000 from the bondsmen of the
runaway Captain Jlowgate. But the laugh
cornea iv when Mr. Secretary Lincoln assures
bis confiding countrymen that there are no
public lunds that can be u?eJ to pay for the
capture of the missing Howgate, but that he
will pay for it out of his own pocket. That
isij't the way the Republican crowd proposes
to spend available funds, iv catching thieves
of its own fost'iing. The available funds
are now openly used to secure the election
of a bribe-taker and corruption ist, whose
sway, if elected, would verify the scathing
Buyii)<r of Wendell Phillips about Kulus
Choate,"of irhOM health thieves asked before
they began to steal."
A \ AUS I lilt H I OH X
The opponents of Em! Ignatius Donnelly
are trying to put him on the defensive by
Introducing all manner of charges against
him. The last one is an attempt to show
that be had something to do with the anony
mous letter written to Hon. Wm. Springer,
chairman of the committee of elections, dur
ing the famous Donnelly- Washbnrn contest,
in irhteb ■!■ offer was made to give Springer
§5,000 if he would keep Washburn in his
scat aud delcat Donnelly's contest. It is
absurd to suppose that Donnelly would offer
§5,000, even if he had it, to defeat himself.
When the r°port of the committee of in
vestigation was made, Gen. Manning, of
Mississippi, on the floor of the house, asked
Mr. Carlisle, (now speaker,) then chairman
of the committee, whether there was any
thing in the testimony to lead the committee
to believe that Mr. Donnelly had anything to
i\<> with the anonymous letter, and Mr. Car-
I lisle completely exonerated Mr. Donnelly
from any connection therewith. And the
house voted Mr. Donnelly not only the usual
contest expense money of $2,000 bat also
$1,000 extra, which it never would have
done if he had been at all tainted with the
suspicion of a dishonorable act
The testimony taken in the Donnelly-
Wushlmrn case showed that many thousands
of dollars had been spent by Washburn to
corrupt the voters of the district and secure
his election, while then- was not a particle of
testimony to show that Donnelly ever 6pcnt
one cent for corrupt purposes. And if an
oiler was made to give Bpringer $5,000 to
abandon Donnelly and keep Washburn in
his peat, and if Springer did abandon
Donnelly, and did help to keep Wnsbburn in
his scat, it follows that it was part of the
same course of corruption which had marked
the contest before the people; and that the
attempt to throw the responsibility for the
anonymous letter on Donnelly, is akin to
the tactics of the pickpocket who escapes by
joining in the cry of "atop thief," against
some innocent man.
Major Strait will have to rely on EOine
more plausible invention than this.
I>E3IAGOGVKISM REBUKED
Many Maine organs seem to be like their
candidate of low and groveling instincts.
These have been appealing to the sympathy
of the Human Catholic Church, in behalf of
Bialne, because it is alleged his mother was
a member of the Catholic church. This is
gutter dt-magogucism, and cannot well go
farther. But the son is an apostate from the
religion of his mother, and why should not
the church of her choice rather repudiate the
apostate for his own sake, than foster him
for his mother's sake! The pastoral letter
of Archbishop Gibbons of Baltimore, the
Roman Catholic Primate of America, which
was recently read in all the churches of his
jurisdiction, contains a timely statement
relative to the objects of the approaching
third plenary council of Baltimore. After
sayiug the purpose of the council is not to
formulate new dogmas, the Archbishop
adds: "Nor will our deliberations have any
local political significance, since we have no |
political grievances to rod it no political I
aspirations to gratify. The church of God
has no direct relations with politics; politi
cal intrigues form no part of her divine mis
sion ; the Kingdom of Christ and of His
Church 'is not of this world' ; she renders to J
Cir-ar the things that are Caesar's and to
God the things that art- God's.' :
Commenting on this the Brooklyn Eagle
pungently says "Then words ara especially
noteworthy on the eve of a Presidential elec
tion, and in view of the fact that no sooner
had the nominations of the respective candi
dates been made than' there was an attempt
to make political capital on the Republican
side by references to the alleged Catholicism
of Mr. Maine"* mother. The religious opin
ions of a Presidential candidate's mother can
have no possible bearing upon his own fit
ness to become President of the United
States. Yet the prominence given to the
matter in the Blame organs was clearly In
tended to Influence the vote of Catholics
throughout the country. Archbishop Gibbon's
words are a clear rebuke to such methods.
In this country every individual is free to
wot ship and believe according to the dictates
of bis conscience, and therefore neither the
Catholic nor any other church has any "po
litical grievances to redress or polititic&l as
pirations to gratify." The Methodists need
to be reminded of this quite as much as the
Catholics, and more so, for during late years
many of the Methodist clergy have meddled
with party politics to the detriment of their
purely spiritual functions. The case would
be very different 11 we had a State Church in |
this country, or even a "dominant sect"
which devoured the loaves and fishes that
belong of right to the multitude. But all
churches in the United States are free to
energize from within and to make as many
converts and build as many churches as their
membership can pay for and support.
.The late Archbishop Hughes was a politician
by Instinct and his advice was often sought
by statesmen when the Union was in danger.
Other distinguished clergymen of other de
nominations have taken a keen interest in
national politics. But such a general In
| terest is a very different thing from making

one's own church or Beet the chief consider
ation in the election of the Chief Magistrate.
Here the question is one of personal qualifi
cation, not of ecclesiastical belongings. A
patriotic Protestant would never vote against i
the best candidate for office because he ,was
a Catholic, nor would a patriotic Catholic do
so because the candidate was not a member
of his church. It matters nothine to the
people of of the United Statin whether Mr.
Blalnc's , mother was a Catholic or not.
That circumstance could neither endow him
with qualifications nor detract - from them.
To draw such a matter into a political cam
paign argued both weakness and trickery in
the Blame organs that did so. It la of no
national importance whether the President
of the United States has been bred in this
church or in that, so long as he understands
his responsibilities and has the will and the
ability to discharge them. It is to be hoped
that the wise counsels of Archbishop Gib
bons will have their effect and that as the
church of which he is primate has no politic-,
al grievances or political aspirations, Us
members will only remembpr their Ameri
can citizenship and leave the religion of Mr.
Maine's mother out of their political reckon
ings."

ABSTRACT or tract society's RErORT. '
• The Tract society v.as organized by the
general conference in 1552, aud
chartered by the New, York legis
lature in lS."il, and again in 1874.
During a period of thirty years the society
proper has contributed for all purposes over
$300,000 and issued over 600,000,000 pages
of tracts in the English, German. French
Spanish, Italian, Swedish and Danish lan
guages for distribution in America, while for
such tracts in foreign fields it has expended
$05,000 since 1854. Since 1809 this society
has expended nearly $30,000 for tracts and
newspapers for n the southern work, princi
pally among the freed men. During ISB3
at the expense of the Tract society and Sun
day School union, 1,314 Sunday schools
were supplied with the paper"Good Tidings"
in which schools every . southern state
was represented. The whole number of
"Good Tidings" circulated in ISB3 was 1,
--057,000, and I,2s3. Methodist churches were
supplied with tracts during this time,
REV. T>R. MILLER
of Philadelphia was introduced and made a
very interesting address on education. To
attain great and enduring results we must
educate. Ideas rule the world and educa
tion kindles the insurrectionary plans which
epead in a cleansing or destroying fire.
Then are three great educators, the family,
the state and the church, the provinces of
each of which were ably handled, but the
most important factor in perfect education
was the church. It was n a perfect educa
tion to teach a child physically and intel
lectually, but he should also be taught mor
ally and spiritually. In the education of a
child all his nature must be grasped, and if
his God-like powers are neglected to the
teaching of other things exclusively, he
grows up with no God-like powers developed
to govern those of his lower /nature, and he
becomes a wrong doer. He is like an en
gine with no engineer to direct, bis life and
guide him to the glory of manhood and per
fect being.
The importance of the ag^n cy of the church
as a teacher of the young, was dwelt upon
at length, and the grandest educational work
of the church in this direction, was the Sun
day school of this century. The mistake was
being made to-day that the true uses of edu
cation were for practical affairs alone, which
don't give much to the higher life of man
or woman, to the neglect of the culture of
the moral powers, which are the reigning
powers, jvhich leaves the Christian church in
the keeping of the only right method of the
education of the children of the present
time.
there is no complete human education
but with the Bible (the educator of the heart)
and it is not safe to impart to a child all the
polish of earth and give it no taste for
In. neti. Through the teaching of the Bible
seed is sown in the mind of the cbild which
will be brought into fruit by the Sres of the
holy spirit. It is the work of God himself,
and from this teaching a Christ shaped,
heaven-crowned character takes root, and in
an atmosphere of the Bible and nourished
by its teachings the religious elevation of
the eliild is only to be attained and tbis char
acter brousrht into blossom.
The speaker then n viewed the tendencies

of N>w York, was then introduced as the
Sunday school bishop of the M. E. church ]
and was welcomed Wfib much applause. lie
said he was thoroughly a Sunday schoolman. ;.
yet there are other sura than this which |
slilnc in the galaxy of Christian education,
and that should be put in its most fitting
pUce among them. Of these, as a model
among immensities, be would name" the
! Christian BOOM and family, out of which the
Sabbalb school derive* it 3 material to work
upon. Among the degeneracies of American
life be entered his indignant protest against
| boarding bouses; so generally taking the
! place of sacred hoars with their cultiva
i tion of the tastes, the artsy refining
influences and parlor and kitchen instruc
| tions. What does a boy know of a father in
! heaven who has no knowledge of a father at
{ home! In a (rood home there is a center of
! character building, the teaching of God's
principles of government, and in such,
children with firm fathers and mothers, be
come instructed in all the essential features
of God's government in the observance of
the value of their home. He bad such a
home, and in It he learned that be must pay
a penalty for transgression, and through the
intercession of bis mother, when his father
had him on the barn floor to answer for his
misdeed. and bis forgiveness by the latter, be
obtained bis first practical idea of the atone
ment. The borne should be an object school
or a kindergarten of theory, and without such
influences the Sabbath school is stunted.
The Sunday school of itself cannot con
j tract the growing materialism which is grow
: ing up in the lacd and endangering tbe
< you a;. Homes vita true fathers and
, mothers, the Bible, family altars, r?'.«jr!ou*
instruction therein, sanctified Sabbaths and
] more wise severity thereto must be bad to
save us. Children should be prepared in the
home 10 face the sin of the world, and the
great need of the day : of American society
is homes' with a religious atmosphere. The
live men and women of to-day were brought
up in such homes and' the skeptical and
aesthetic were the children of those who had
no religious government under the family
roof-tree. ■
Another institution to check materialism
was the pulpit. It was a mistake to have the
pulpit service for the adults and the Sabbath
school alone for the children. If a child
could not attend but one service a day let it
be the pulpit service. The American youth
lucks reverence and the pulpit is about the
only thing that teaches it. The solemn si
lence, the sours of praise, and the living
minister, inculcates this, no matter if the
child fails to understand the latter. It was a
great step gained for life and government
when the home gave the child the religious"
idea, the pulpit impressed it and the Sabbath
school elevated it.
After paying a glowing tribute to the great
northwest and its growing cities and Baying
that he welcomed to build them up emi
grants from all lands who come to our
shores to be Americans in truth, .whatever bo
their form of worship, and to obey its con
&titution in letter and spirit. Dr. Vincent
made a touching allusion to the fact that it
was a erreat thing to live and in that life to
make strokes for God and our country which
should survive when we arc gone.
The benediction was then given by Rev.
S. G. Smith.

A Kid Burglar Captured.
A twelve year old lad named Martin Mc-
Donougb, and a companion kid named John
Xeedham, successfully burglarized the gro
cery and drug store of Noren & Londquist,
comer of Third and Maria street, by gaining
access thereto via the cellar. Officer Young
succeeded in arresting McDonough and de
livered him to the patrol wagon, which was
Runt for, but Needh«m escaped. On
his arrival at the city hall
the diminutive burglar, who was barefooted
and had on a cheap suit of clothes, evidently
built for a much larger villain, had pushed
down his old felt hat over his eyes and
seemed quite broken in spirit, in fact he bad
not an atom of a dime novel hero in his
good looking but dirty face. On being
searched the cause of his crime was evi
dently the result of an over fondness for
tobacco, his pockets being found to contain
eight live cent cigars, a new brierwood pipe
and a new tin tobacco box, in all worth
about a dollar at retail. Jailer
O'Keefe said he was a Con
nt, mara and that his father Tom bad been
dead some time. The officers were scouring
the out«kirU of the city for his red headed
accomplice at last accounts.

ALBERT LEA.
A City Located in One of the Most
Romantic Spots in South
ern Minnesota,
Dpon the Shores of Albert Lea, a Lake,
Thouarh Smaller, Resembling:
Miuuetouka iv Contour.
A Short Description of the Albert Lea Driv
ing Pj;rk, Live Stock Association—
Other Mention.
| Spccir.l Correspondence of the Globe. I
Albeiit Li:a, Sept. 20. — A person who
only visits this city o i business, and who is
driven from the depot to the '-Hall" house,
atteuds to his business, whatever it may be,
in the business portion of the city, and. grip
in hand, jumps into the hack, and is driven
to the depot acain, has simply missed seeing
one of Ihe most beautiful cities iv beautiful
Minnesota.
There is nothing striking or unusual about
the appearance of the business part of Albert
Lea to distinguish it from its sister cities of
Minnesota. Its streets are broad, very
bfoad; its sidewalks are wide, and are always
kept in good repair, and its business buikl
inffs are substantial brick structures in the
main, but, beyond this, and the fact that the
splendid hotels which it contains always have
made it popular with the traveling public,
there is nothing about the city, as seen by
ordinary business men, who have visited it,
to commend it to them over and above any
other brisk, live, go ahead treatarn city of the
same number of people.
But let one who wants to see a city full of
the most delightful and most romantic loca
tions, take a drive on some fine day about
Albert Lea and see for himself the natural
beauty of the scenery which lies at his feet
as he winds in and out upon the bank of the
beautiful Albert Lea lake, upon which the
city is built and note the neat, handsome
and even elegant residences and grounds
with which the city is'lilled, and he must be a
person of more than the usual degree of ob
tuseness if he fails to appreciate its lovli
ness.
Albert Lea is one of the most beautiful of
all Minnesota's lakes and although much
smaller, resembles Mlnnetonka in general
contour. It has the same high, abrupt, well
wooded banks, and the same dark green
water. A most delightful and really romau
tie drive, over four miles in length
which the Albert Leans feel justly proud of,
encircles it and is kept in most excellent re
pair, so as to form really a grand boulevard
which would wring praUes from the lips of a
marble statue, so lovMy and beautiful is it.
The class of residences which line the
shores of this beautiful lake are of more than
the usual degree of excellence fora place of
3,000 people, and adorned and beautified by
smoothly shaven lawns and fiuc shrubbery
as they are, and with the romantic lake and
its bewitching scenery ever in view,the poets
and artists who find in nature when toned I
and beautified by art their truest and noblest
inspirations may here cease their wanderings
and guild with immortal lustre a landscape
which I can only dimly outline.
It was, the courtesy of Dr. Wedge which
disclosed the (to me) heretofore hidden
beauties of his city. Under his guidance the
handsome features of what I had
always before considered a common place
town were brought to view. Having learned
that upon his stock farm, about one mile
westoi me euy, a nan-nine tracK nau been
fitted up, aud that he had turned over to the
care and control of the Albert Lea Driving
Park and Live Stock association the care and
management of his Oak Park track, I ex
pressed a desire to see it and the fine stock
farm on ■which it is located. Stepping into
his kindly proffered carriage we took in the
lovely scenery and fine residence part of the
city before alluded to, and were soon whirl
iug away toward Oak Park. As before said
It is located about one mile west of the city
upon a tract of 840 acres, which constitutes
the Dis farm. The track is finely laid out in
the centre of an eighty acre lot seeded to
clover, and is as level as a house floor. As
we drove around It we came upon the fine
herd of full blood and grade Short
horn cows which are his especial
pride. Of what beautiful and By
metrical form they were one has
only to imagine his ideal of perfectness, and
if be has any correct conception of the class
of the animal kin^don to which they belong
he will hit it the first time. Color, form and
figure all unite in one perfect whole. "A
two year old short horn steer," said the doc
tor by way of interjection, "represents more
real profit on the capital invested than any
other species of farm property which money
can be converted into," aud remembering
how easy it has always been to sell such ani
mals for a rattling cood price, I fairly con
curred in his sentiment. The doctor's herd
comprises forty bead of full bloods, with the
Duke of Albert Lea at their head, and taken
as a heri they are hard to beat. They are In
excellent order, and raised tfu ir royal
heads from the luxuriant clover they were
cropping, at our approach, any one who
could not have appreciated tUir beautiful
points must be sadly devoid of reason or
feeling. In the calf pasture lot .a irroup of
seven or ei;jht fine spriuc calves were feed-
Ing as close together as if harnessed in one
team, and showed their blood as Well as their
elders, and were indeed s pretty sijjht.
Farther on In another lot were three fine
thoroughbred buli {.lives. "These," said
the doctor, "will bring me $100 each, and I
have more demand for such auin:;Js than I
can possibly su p| ly." In view of the far-t
that a common barnyard animal is worth
from ten to twenty dollars it really does seem I
as if it did pay to raise good stock.
After looking over the cattle anil a herd
of pure white half blood Sufiolk swine, whose
mother being a black and white spotted ani
mal of the common order suggested the
truth of the oft aasertM idea that "blood will
tell." We next visited the lnlrse barns.
The doctor is a bone enthusiast and has
loaM splendid specimens of the noble equine
race.
We fir.-i visited the stall of "FisUerville
Lis«," a thoroughbred running mare im
ported from Canada, and who took the blue
ribbon at the late state fair for "best thor
oughbred mare." Sue is four years old from
Jack B "11, dam Raachraaid. Her cent which
also took first premium, named Elsie Ryan,
sired by Tim Ryan, a Lexington horse, is
also a fine specimen of high breeding.
The hard smooth limbs and trim
head would denominate the pure
Wood of which they boast even to a novices
We next visited "Aim ont Messenger," a
fine dapple bay stallion a good fifteen bands
high, of a trotting strain, as Indicated by bio
name which practically gives his pedigree:
Sire J'Almont," dam "Laura" by Darnaby'
Messenger." He i- a fine looking horse and
a suiendid sire himself.
Next we took a look at the yearling colt
"Ringwood" purchased at the KitUon sale,
of which the doctor feels justly proud. The
following is- the pedigree:
Ringwood, bay coit. foaled in 1868, bred
by N. W. KiUon ;siredby Biackwood,Jr.. (five
year-old record 2:22^) son of Black
(three-year-old record 2:31 «ire of Protine,
record 2: IS; SOB of Alexanders Norman,
sire of Lulu, record 2: 15; and May Queen,
record 2:20. First dam Alice Rlng.by Ring
master, son of Rlnpold by Boston; second
dam by Cassias M. Clay, Jr., eire of Harry
Clay, record 2:23 . This colt also took a
first premium.
There are in all twenty-four bead of horses j
upon tt« farm, among which are some very
fine half blood colts fiom excellent common
mares. Of the 340 acres which comprise
this farm all but about GO acres on the west
side of the farm is under cultivation.
This is heavy timber and overlooks
Pickerel lake, upon the bank of which the
doctor has had a place clearpd up for plrnle
and camping parties, the waters of the lake
furnishing excellent fishing.
Not one kernel of wheat is raised upon
the farm, the chief crops being; oats, corn
and bay. It is divided into a number of fine
pastures, furnished with abundant shade of
natural oaks, and all of them containing an
abundance of living water. It is what one
might call a natural stock farm, und Dr.
Wedge is fast bringing it into such a condi
tion as to enable him to make the most out
of it.
As before alluded to, a driving park asso
ciation to be known as the Albeit Lee Driv
ing Park and Live Stock association uai
formed recently, and the following
officers, who constitute an executive board,
are to have control of the "Oak park" track:
President, Frank Hull.
Vice president, John Whytock.
Secretary. C. C. Dwigot
Treasurer, L. V. Bpicer.
Superintendent of track, D. C. Stacy.
The lateness of the season precludes the
possibility of holding v fair ►he present year,
but next fall a good local fair will be the re
sult. As then; are several fine stock farms
betide the one of D. Wedge's (notably that
of L. V. Spicer a short dtstance east of the
city) in this vicinity and as Freeborn countj
contains a lartre amount of fine- and con
siderable blooded stock, a very iiue showing
will be made.
Returning from our drive to the farm I
iookedover the recent improvements of the
city a little, The female branch of McAl
lister college, a fine brick building:, conspic
uously located, is fast approching comple
tion.
The new wholesale grocery store of Ran-
BOtn Bros., 45x132 feet in extent and two
BtOrin high with basement, and having a
fine plati; glass front, is an institution ol
which the owners and the city may well fee!
proud.
While not a very lartre number of busi
ness buildings have been constructed during
the p:\st year a large number of residences
have, which shows the city to be in a healthy,
growing state. Albert Lea to-day contains
probably fully three thousand people, and ii
in a thriving, healthy state It isthecouutj
seat of one of the best agricultural counties
in Minnesota, and, if I must tell the truth, 1
shall say that I like both the city and its
people.
