RI VER MATTERS.
The Kiver Still RisingNew Passenger
Schedule on the Keokuk Northern Line
Probable Arrival of the First Boat from
St. Louis.
The freight boat Victory, of the Keokuk
Northern line, left St. Louis on Saturday,
the Dth inst., for Bead's Landing, and will,
no doubt, continue her journey to this city,
arriving here about the 15th or ICth. Th
Victory is a stern wheeler, and will not prob
ably arrive here before the time indicated,
especially as it is understood she brings up
a heavy freight.
No positive information as to when
the passenger boats of the line
will go regularly into commission
for the season, has been received at the office
of theg company in this city, though it is
confidently expected that but little time will
be lost in inaugurating the season's pro
gramme.
The schedule of passenger rates, it ap
pears, has already been arranged. I this
respect a "new departure" has been inaugu
rated which, it is believed, will obviate many
of the objections to which the old system
was amenable. Heretofore tickets were sold
at certain rates, which included meals and
berths. This, under the new plan, is done
away with, and simple passage tickets are
sold distinct from the others. Fo instance,
passage rates from St. Paul to St. Louis are
fixed at $8. Meal and berth tickets are sold
also at $8the two making the
entire cost of a first-class trip, only $10.00
two dollars less than previous rates. Single
meals can also be had at fifty cents a meal.
This is also a new feature. Th above re
fers exclusively to first-class fare. Second
class fare is fixed at only $G.OO for passage
to St. Louis. The distance between the two
points by river is within a fraction of eight
hundred miles, and the aim has been to fix
passenger fares at about one cent per mile.
From St Paul to Hastings, the shortest
distance that can be traveled by the boats,
fifty cents will be charged, and so on, accord
ing to distance. I is also probable the
.system of state-room and berth accommoda
tions for a single night, now in operation on
the Keokuk Fast Line, will be extended to
this end of the route, as it is said to meet with
considerable favor from the traveling public
on the lower river, where it has
been in use for some time.
These arrangements, it is believed, will meet
the demands of the public and secure an in
creased travel the entire season.
The river at this point still manifests an
upward tendency, having risen something
over six inches in the past twenty-four
hours. This is a good boatable stage, and
amply sufficient for the accommodation of
the largest passenger craft plying to this
port.
Captain Jack Reaney, yesterday, started a
crew from Hastings to a Crosse, for the
Nellie Kent, which is to be taken to Still
water, and will arrive there to-morrow to go
into the St. Croix trade.
Ge n. Lesh Has a Foot Race and Bags His
Game,
The cleaning up of the court house
square by city prisoners was continued yes
terday, under the able supreme command of
Gen. Lesh. All progressed smoothly
enough until about 4 p. m., when one of the
enforced laborers made a break for "liberty
or death." Henry Enneckel, under a three
months' sentence for stealing sugar from the
St. Paul & Pacific railroad, and whose term
would expire about the 20th prox., was the
man. He had been on the scavengering
oquad all day on Monday, when he wore his
overcoat. Yesterday, as an ingenious blind,
he wore his shirt outside his coat. In the
course of his labor, the prisoner reached the
Cedar streetfence, over which hevaulted, and
took to his heels through the mud and
mire of the blocks between Fourth and
Fifth streets. The commanding officer was
equal to the occasion, and soon ran down his
man into a barn off Robert street, and
marched him back to prison, with colors
flying to the tune of the "Rogue's March."
"Them big boots beat theprisoner," Bays the
general, "and he must feel streaky now."
Seed Wheat for Grasshopper Sufferers.
Eri Salter, of Atwater, chairman of the
board of county commissioners ofKandiyohi,
and E. Lock, a prominent wheat man of
Willmar, were in the city yesterday for the
purpose of buying wheat for seed grain for
the sufferers of that county from grasshop-
*timimmmmt
^siifSBS^
^-^^K.^
per ravages. They intend purchasing sixty
thousand bushels, which is a fair estimate of
the quantity required in that county alone
Yesterday morning they purchased five
thousand bushels in this city, and to obtain
the balance, started last evening on a trip
down the Iowa & Minnesota division of the
Milwaukee road. Most of the wheat exam
ined in this city Mr. Salter deemed unfit for
the purpose of seed, and for this reason he
preferred making a trip to the country. In
Kandiyohi there is no wheat to speak of, and
these gentlemen were thus compelled to look
elsewhere. But this is not
the case with the other counties,
or some at least of them, which will
furnish all the seed desired. Meeker, for
iastance, will buy at home as there is enough
of good quality to be found in the county to
supply the demand. Other counties may
be as well 'situated, and thus the State's
charity will confer a double blessing on the
people in being disseminated among the
people, and at the same time affording the
stricken ones the needed articlc^of seed.
CI TY GLOBULES.
In the past twenty-four hours the river has
risen six inches.
The Sioux City pay car went down the road
yesterday afternoon.
An occasional legislator is still discernable on
the streets and about the hotels.
Captain Atkinson, of Forest City,
Meeker county, has a field of wheat up and
growing.
Wheat-sowing has pretty generally com
menced in Meeker and other counties along the
St. Paul & Pacific.
A social hop will be indulged in this evening
in the Druid's hall, corner of Seventh and
Jackson streets.
Twenty-two through passengers left for Oma
ha on the Sioux city road on Monday, and
twenty-one yesterday.
The Workingmen's Union will hold a meet
ing this evening in the old court house, and
will be addressed in both English and German.
Major C. A. Ruffee having received his com
mission as Indian agent at White Earth, started
yesterday for the reservation to take charge
thereof.
Mr. Theodore Schuelc, formerly connected
with the Milwaukee JferoUl and an enterprising
and experienced journalist, has assumed the
position of telegraph editor on the VolkzeUiing.
Sixty-five persons, all in search of land, left
Worthington yesterday morning on the Lu,-
verne branch road, to look over the country
west of, and contiguous to that point.
The numerous readers of HE GLOBE in Still
water will be interested in the fact that Gov.
Pillsbury has signed the bill providing for the
disposition of "prize" logs caught by the St.
Croix Boom company.
Sheriff Box, of Wabashaw, having keen made
happy by the receipt of his little $900 wood
chuck from the State yesterday, starts this
morning up the St. Paul & Pacific, where he
proposes investing his money in lands.
No information as to the opening of Red
river had been received up to yesterday at the
Red River Transportation company's office in
this city, though it is not there doubted that
THE GLOBE item stating the fact is correct.
It was an error to say that one of the court
house square recruits in charge of Gen. Lesh,
was the Hon. David Hoar. We are glad to know
that David is on the upward turn, and is not
only out of jail, but a member of the Father
Matthew Temperance Society.
The German-speaking workingmen of thethis
city will assemble this evening in the old court
house to discuss the advisability of joining
the union already established, or of organizing
a distinct association with purposes identical
with the former.
The great event of the season, for the benefit
of the Temperance Reform club., has been post
poned to Tuesday evening next, March 19. We
learn that in addition to the drama, several
singers have volunteered their services, and the
event bids fair to be a most enjoyable occasion,
both musical and dramatical.
A special meeting of the board of public
works was held yesterday morning, at which
were present President Timme and H. M. Rice.
The only business transacted was the consider
ation of certain alterations in the assessment
for the partial grading of Rice street, from
Bianca street to Sycamore.
Prof. Thompson, of the State university, in
in a lecture at Litchfield, a night or two ago,
paid a high compliment to Mr. W. M.on
Campbell, the Meeker county mem
ber of the House, for his services in the Legis
laturealluding to him as one who had done the
State good service, and as one of whom his
constituents should be proud.
A viciously wild fight occurred yesterday af
ternoon, at the Wild Hunter tavern on Jackson
street. The whole affair was a disgraceful,
drunken brawl, and the combatants, Dan.
Jannahan, night watchman of the tavern, and
Luke Waters, of Red Wing, were locked up to
sleep off the fumes of benzine. That accom
plished, the former deposited $20, and the lat
ter $50, for their appearance before the munic
ipal court this morning, to answer the charge
of drunk and disorderly, and decidedly so at
that.
The Governor yesterday signed two bills af
fecting this city. One very voluminous docu
ment amends the acts approved March 5,1874,
and March 1,1876, and embraces, with other
topics, the assessment and redemption of lands,
contracts entered into by the board of public
works, condemnation of land for opening
streets, and the trials of police officers charged
with dereliction. The second authorizes the
city council to appropriate the fines collected
from prostittites and the frequenters of their
houses for institutions for the care and refor
mation of fallen women.
To those who love variety, a great treat is in
store at the Opera House on Thursday, Friday
and Saturday. A peep at "Onld Ireland" in
its brightest aspectsKingstown, Vale of
Avoca, The Dargle, Glendalough, Limerick,
Glengariffe and other historic and picturesque
scenes, songs, ballads, character sketches, and
a good descriptive lectme. Assisting in the
entertainment there are some seven persons, all
reported to be good in their business. Irish
men can again be carried back to their "own,
their native land"the American-born Hiber
nian can look upon the home of his fathers,
and all desirous of making a European tour
can do so at a small outlay and with only the
alight trouble of visiting the Opera House.
Scarcely a day passes without some foreign
born land seeker, under the homestead or pre
emption privileges of the United States, being
disappointed by informalities in his naturaliza
tion papers, which, of course, prevent him ac
quiring real estate in the land of his adoption.
The carelessness of clerks of courts frequently
works great hardships. These facts have forci
bly arrested the attention of a GLOBE reporter,
whose duties cause him to visit' the office of
the clerk of the district court here, when
these informal papers are frequently submitted
to that officer's inspection. To all in need in
this particular, HE GLOBE would say that the
Ramsey county courts are in almost continuous
session, and the applicants can rest assured of
having their papers drawn out promptly and
legally by the ever ready clerks of the court.

SEED GRAIlf.
The Governor Purchasing by Telegraph
Through the State Borrowing the
Amounts Specified In the Law of the St.
Paul Banks by State Treasurer Pfsender.
Owing to the brief period of time avail
able for the purpose, and in order to facili
tate the furnishing of seed grain to the
farmers in the devastated districts, Governor
PiUsbury has been compelled to resort to
the telegraph for the purchase of wheat in
those sections of the State where a supply of
the proper quality for the use designed can
be best obtained. With this view the tele
graph has been used for the past few days,
and the purchases made at the most avail
able pointsthe instructions being to draw
direct on the Governor for the purchase
money.
This fact has rendered necessary
the borrowing of the $50,000 of the St,
Paul banks, as authorized by the provisions
of the act passed by the Legislature, where
with to meet the liabilities thus incurred,
and this State Treasurer Pf tender yesterday
succeeded in accomplishing.
*he whole amount requisite on account
of the seed wheat appropriation, it will be
remembered, is 150,000, of which sum
$50,000 is to be borrowed of the St. Paul
banks, while for the remaining 100,000
bonds are to be issued.
The premature coming of spring, and the
necessity thereby incurred of having the
grain on hand, has rendered prompt action
requisite on the part of the Governor, and
to his credit be it said, Hi Excellency is
making the best use possible of the brief
period allowed him for the performance of
his responsible trust.
