A Magnificent Parade Nearly One Mile in Length. ■ ■. i v " .. .1 Memorable Event in the History of Min neapolis. Decoration Day was generally observed yes terday. The city wore the appearance of a holiday. [ Flags were flying at half mast, and business fronts were draped and decorated. The streets from 10 o'clock up to the hour of two in the afternoon were laterally thronged with the populace to pay fitting tribute to the nation's fallen heroes. Everything consid ered, it was the most notable commemora tion day within Minneapolis' history. A combination of circumstances contributed to that end, one of the most notable being the fact that, the Grand Army of the Republic is in ■ active preparation for the coming national encampment which is to be held here in midsummer. All the old veterans who reside here were aroused to unusual ac tivity in the preliminary work, through the frequent meetings of the ,-arious posts, throe of which having been but recently mustered iv. Business was pretty generally • suspended and carriages were in great . de maud. j The ceremonies were exceptionally elaborate and impressive, and the music of the life and drum tilled the air as the several drum corps marched the streets from the va rious armories. The graves of the dead soldiers iv Maple hill cemetery on the East side and in Lakewood cemetery near Lake Caihouu were strewn with flowers in the fore noqnj in the afternoon the event of the day occurred in the combined ceremonies of all the military organizations of the city in the exercises which took place at Layman's cemetery. The young men, members of the National guards, united with the patriarchs, the veterans of the great struggle for the union of the states, in the observances. The Forenoon's Observances. ...... LAKEWOOD. At the hour designated, 9 o'clock, L. P. Plummer and C. C. Washburn Posts, G.A.R., assembled at the armory of Plummer Post, and shortly after took up the line of march . under the command of 15. F. Cole, proceeded to the East side, going direct to Maple Hill cemetery. . Here the posts were divided into battalions for the purpose of expediting mat ters, and the labor of love be gan. The graves of the noble d ml were strewn with a profusion of Howe r contributed by the ladies and school euil-s dren. Making the round of the cemetery, ' the battalion halted at the grave of Geo. N. Morgan. The old veterans were drawn up iv line, a fervent prayer was offered by the Rev. Mr. Starker. This grave was most pro fusely and elaborately decorated with rarest ! flowers, and ornamented with an appropriate and beautiful cross. A difficulty was met iv the fact that the list of names with which the officers had been furnished was quite incomplete. They were given the names of only twenty two, whereas the number of soldiers' graves in Maple Hill aggregated forty-two. Con sequently the compiles had not p.ovided themselves with sufficient number of flowers to pay tribute to all the graves. Col. B. F. Cole, magnanimously took upon himself the task of seeing that these graves were properly strewn with the emblems of peace, beauty and purity later, in the day. He forthwith made a detail to procure wreaths and Bowers and the error iv com piling the list til names was corrected, so that not a grave in the ceme tery was omitted from the commemorative exercises. TIIU CATHOLIC CEMETERY. A detail consisting of Comrade Stevens of Wasuburn post, and Iliukle and Crawford of Plummer post, had previously been sent to Catholic cemetery, and the graves of the sol diers there had also been decorated. AT LAKEWOOD. Geo. X. Morgan post and Butler post, the former under command of J. C. Price, and the latter commanded by John 11. Egge, formed on Nicollet avenue promptly at '.i o'clock, with the right resting on Third street. Thence they marched to the corner of First avenue south and Washing ton avenue. Taking the motor at this point they proceeded to Lakewood cemetery" at Lake Caihouu. The lirst two coaches of the train were tilled by members of the G. A. R., and the other two were tilled with citizens. The Grand Army revived old days by sing ing "Rally around the flag" as the train started on its mission, and the sidewalks were lined with people waving their hand kerchiefs. At Lake Calhoun the soldiers formed in Hue and marched with music direct to the cemetery. : Here they were met by the Ex celsior post which was commanded by E. K. Perkins. The three posts fell iv and after going through numerous military evolutions, proceeded to the graves, and the flowers, wreaths and evergreens were distributed. The Geo. N. Morgan Post drum corps struck up the Portuguese hymn to which the com rades performed their work of commemora ting their fallen brothers. The ranks were broken at the Masonic monument, and will ing hands soon consummated the decorations of the twenty-eight graves reported, unfor tunately, through some unaccountable error, only eighteen were found. Forming again at the mouument, the. column marched slowly to the graves of comrades Plummer and Butler, the drum corps playing a solemn dirge. A square was formed around the two graves, the drum corps taking position in lh» center. After decorating these graves, comrade Marchant, of Geo. X. Morgan post, paid a tribute to the departed comrade Butler, and he was followed by Rev. Mr. Bull in an impressive address over the grave «f L. P. Plummer. Marching at once to the motor station they started on the return trip at 11 o'clock. The drum corps kept up the mar tin! strains most of the distance to Washing ton avenue, where the line of marh was tak en up to the headquarters at the corner of Nieollet avenue and Third street.

It was headed by the Mankato military band in full uniform, thirteen pieces strong. Next following came THIS BXOKAL WAGO3T. This was most elaborate and beautiful. In the center it bore a. large evergreen cross inscribed with the words "The Unknown Dead," and surmounted with an arch of Hags. About the hub of the wheel was a large evergreen wreath, while the body of the wagon was encircled by a strip of can vase upon which was inscribed the mottoes "The Price of Liberty," and on the opposite, "Our Fallen Heroes," while at the rear end was "Wilkiu Post No. 19 G.

The whole was under the command of Dr. Wm. Frisbey, chief marshal; Dr. E. J.Davis, first assistant; Geo. W. Slade, second assist ant. '.;■;.: -'■""...■:. FORWARD. The line of march was from Walnut up Front to Cherry; up Cherry to Broad; up Broad to Warren, and out Warren to Glen wood cemetery. The procession was grand and imposing, and in point of numbers and appearance far excelled any one ever formed in southern Minnesota. the streets along the line of march were thronged with a vast concourse of people, large numbers of whom, both men. women and children joined in the procession and proceeded with the rest. AT THE CEMETERY. Glenwood cemetery is located about two miles southeast from the center of the city, upon a beautiful elevation, neatly laid out with walks and drives, and finely ornamented with shrubbery. Arrived at the cemetery the G. A. R., military" civic societies and bands were formed in a hollow square with the marshals ' speaker, commandant of the post and others in the center with the Good Thunder Cadet band playing Nearer My God to Thee. The exercises were opened by Capt. Key son, acting commander, who read the ad dress to the post which was followed by pray er by W. W. P. McConnel, post chaplain| suc ceeding which the male quartette sung "We deck their graves to-day." The ceremonies were further continued by reading from the Post ritual and music by the Cadet band. Col. Thompson then introduced Comrade J. P. Rea, of Minneapolis, who proceeded to deliver a most eloquent and touching ad dress highly appropriate to the occasion. A; til-- conclusion of Hie i oration I of Cast Kea the quartette sang a selection entitled "Cover Them Over," when the formal cere mony of decorating the graves took place and a dirge was rendered by the Gcnnania band. The tiring squad of the G. A. R., under Comrade James Cannon, then tired the customary salute, which was followed by Co. F., Second regiment, M. ff. G., firing in two platoons. The (juurtette then sang "America," in which the vast throng of spectators Joined, at the conclusion of which ■Key. Mr. Archur offered the benediction, and the exercises wore at an end. On the return the Cadet band was given the (lost of honor, and with this exception the return was in the same order as the out ward inarch. At 5:30 each organization had returned to its hall or armory and disbanded. During the afternoon yesterday Col. llol broob lost a pocket, hook containing some $8,000 worth of certificates of deposit, valu able papers, railroad posses and a large amount of currency. It was found by a yotrag man named James Kline and return ed to the owner who suitably rewarded the Tiie attendance last evening to hear Thos. W. Keene, the tragedian, was very large, and the audience were highly delighted. Those who were n6t present missed a treat. One reason why the St. Paul, Minneapolis it Omaha railroad is so attractive to persons traveling between St. Paul and Stillwater, is on account of the popular and obliging conductor*, who answer questions civilly and are willing to impart information to those needing such. Conductor Travis, although a young man, is a notable example of this, the young ladles especially being greatly in favorof taking his trains. And nobody blames him, as he cannot help his good looks and winning ways. Mr. W. D. Conrad, our prince of tobacco nists, has just returned from an extensive business tour through Dakota and the west, and conies hack looking- hale and hearty. He is one of our solid men. lie speaks in the highest terms of the prospects, especially for the farmeis, of that rich grain growing laud, and has seen notling Hike it in the nine years of nicanderiugs over the prairies of the west. Business is looking up, and traders are not afraid to handle goods, notwithstanding the low prices of wheat and other cereals. The great quantity expected to be harvested will more than make up for the lowness of price. It is satisfactory to note that the drives from up the. river arc progressing finely, the water having risen considerably owing to the late rains. Mr. Thos. E. Ward, an old river man, ,vho was in the city yesterday, says he never saw a better head of water, lie also says the drives are very large and some oi the foremost ones may be expected daily. Mr. Keator, of Moliue, Ills., one of the largest mill men in that region was in the city yesterday and he sees a most prosperous season for sawed lumber, the price of which will range at least §1 a thousand higher than j last season. Last year he lost his large mills I and 7,000,000 feet of lumber by fire, but it has been rebuilt and largely increased. The output last year was 17,000",000 feet. After the mill was burnt last year another was bought, and now they have the two running. He is here looking after the log interests. At the municipal court yesterday, before Judge Netheway, there was a ■ very light docket, only two lawbreakers being brought forward. Ole Tourgeson, who is a regular Jehu as a driver, supposed the streets were a race course, and was driving at a breakneck iate when he was, spied by one of our lynx eyed guardians of the peace, marched to durance vile, and being brought before his honor, contributed 57.50 to the city's funds. John Mallv,remember not the O'Mally,who was immortalized by Marryatt, although no doubt he could place a bigger Owe before his name than any of them, was placed atothe bar of justice for endeavoring to live by his wits, and not having the stamps to pay for a good square meal. He acknowledged his fault,and got the privilege of leaving the city, when he started for Minneapolis. Although our base ball club began at the lowest notch in the ladder of games during the past week they arc doing finely, thanks to the improvement in the management, and the working of the players together. Forbes, the colored pitcher, has proven him self a thst-class man, and the opponents of the club have a hard time batting: him. The arrivals at the Sawyer house for the past twenty-four hours was very large, and they came from all quarters of the country. Among them are the following: Geo. W. Little, T. L. Roberts, R. E. Payne, J. S. Lit and S. Moss, Chicago; J. P. Burnett, New York; Jas. E. Strong, Eusoline, Wis.; D. W. Cook, Cleveland, O.; W. J. Miter, Appleton, Wis.; Thos. S. Ward, Marine; Geo. W.

Memorial or Decoration day opened as bright and clear as such a day could be, and at an early hour the streets of our good city showed that something out of the ordinary line was expected. Flags were floating on the breeze at half-mast, a fitting token to the memory of those whose day was to be kept. The members of the Muller post No. 1, the pioneer Post of the state, were early astir, and the blue coated old veterans were ready to take up the thread of the battles of Gettys burg, Vicksburg, the Wilderness, or Rich mond, and to speak of the deeds of thoss whose bodies lay mouldering on these and other battle fields of the south. A detach ment left the city by teams at 8 oclock for the Catholic cemetery at Baytown, or South Stillwater, where they decked the graves of their comrades in arms, of which there are a considerable number in that quiet spot. Returning to the city they received an extra supply of flowers and proceeded to Lake View cemetery, one of the most lovely spots thai could be selected for the resting place of our loved ones, and there performed their sad yet willing work for their companions of many a hard fought battle. About 11 o'clock they came back to headquarters, being ac companied by their fife and drum band, to which stirring music they had marched some sixteen years before when on the road to vic tory. At 2 o'clock Muller Post No. 1, to the number of nearly sixty.formed in procession being escorted by Company X., M. >\ G., and accompanied by a large concourse of citizens with the baud in advance, they pro ceeded to the cemetery, where appropriate speeches were delivered. The proceedings were most interesting throughout, and Mul ler Post No. 1, should duty call, would even now be ready to march to the front, and fol lovr the stars and stripes to victory, as they had often done before. It Ended in Murder. Newcastle, Pa., May 30.—Wm. Peters, aged twenty-two, died last night from the wounds received in a quarrel three weeks ago. Peters and a man named Kelly had a dispute about a coal account, which finally ended in blows. Kelly's son interfered, and in the scuffle, it is alleged, Peters in the back with a pen knife. Kelly is under arrest, but claims he did not" inflict the wound. Solid for Blame. Yocxgstowk, 0., May 30.—The delegates of the Eighteenth Ohio district and twenty other Blame men left for Chicago on the pri vate car of President Andrews, on the Pitts burg-, Cleveland & Toledo railroad. The car was decorated with a mammoth oil painting of Blame, and mottoes, -'Blame, the plumed knight, the people's choice." "The Eight eenth Ohio district is solid for Blame." The suspicion is etrong ana is daily growing stronger in Xew York, that the "clever" Mr. Ward of the brilliant Grant firm has salted away, at least a million oi dollars in lorcizn securities. FROM OLD ENGLAND. Newspaper and Social Gossip or the Spring 1 Time. The National Beverage ami the Man "Wlic -Millies It. Eastboukne, Sussex,Eng., May 3, 1184. — Any ono like 'myself with Bedouin instincts aud fond of pedestrian exorcise, can in ten days—it is ten days since the date of my last —see a great deal and enjoy n great deal down at this Buperb watering place. There arc so many points of attraction down in the guide books,one scarcely knows which to visif first. There are Willingr.ou, and Wilming ton, and Jevington — lovdy villager Tbert is Pevensey with its historic castle 2,000 yean old uud Beacby Head a thousand times older. There is Battle. Abbey, and then; h Hurstmoneeux, Scaford. and Polegate, anil Ratton Alfristou, Ensrideun, Berling Gap, Wannock Glen and—but I shall weary with names which arc merely names as yet to the renders of th<- Glove but I trust thai ere I have done, with Eastbourne these; same names will be associated with pleasant re collections and stirring Incidents. But before starting out sight-seeing let us take a bath this delightful May morning, and where shall it be* You have a choice of your locations: the covered baths private or public, at the Devonshire park; an open air bath upon the parade or public promenade; «i splendid plunge bath from off the pier; an alfresco bath outside the town limits. Let me ex plain before you make your choice. The Devonshire park baths are enclosed in a handsome editiee and are supplied with sea water at each rising of the tide. There are. small private bath rooms handsomely fitted up anti supplied with hot and cold sea water, ami there are magnifi cent swimming baths—two, one for ladies and another for gentlemen—a hundred yards long. At these baths natatorial contests and exhibitions take place, and a lady "swim mist," Miss Saigematt, who by the way is not at all a miss, a sage man finding her so (that is not amiss) married the amphibious fair one. If you wish to bathe in the sands —and you will if you are an Apollo or a Juno, or if you have a handsome bathing costume which you desire to show, you will have to enter one of those queer looking vehicles which look like sentry boxes on wheels with a door at both ends. Before entering we must go to the office, pay our money, a shilling each—twenty-live cents, and receive our towels and bathing costumes if we have none of our own. How are we to get in? See the attendant is letting down some steps and opening the door, we can both go in the same "machine* 5 as it is called. When we are fairly in, that horse will be attached to the machine and he will draw us out till we find sufficient depth of water to at least cover our knees. Now the horse is detached and the attendant has let down another set of steps at the other end of the machine and If you are ready we will open the door at the opposite end to the one we entered and seaward.. Now don't be afraid but walk down the steps, if you feel timid and nervous take hold of this rope hanging there on purpose and keep hold of it if you like, all the time you are bathing. "What a way we seem off from the land* Yes, we are bathing earlier than is general. The tide is now coming in, and our machine will have to be moved several times towards the land before we had suffi cient of a mermaid's (or merman's) life. It is the custom to bathe as the tide rises, but the majority of bathers do not care to go •in till the tide is fairly up. In half an hour you will see the shore lined with bathers pop ping up and down like corks in a bucket under a pump. You've had enough? Well, let us get up into the machine, and, as soon as you are dressed—there is a glass, and another behind you to arrange your back hair by—we will open the front door, which will be a signal for the horse to come and draw us in again. So many ladies bathing? Of course, no one but ladies are allowed to bathe here. Look along yonder, toward frowning old Beachy Head, you see more machines there like an immense military encampment Hooded out. That is where the gentlemen bathe. Funny* Well, yes! These English are a little funny about some things. They would thing it shocking for men and women to lounge about on the sands and in the shallow water together as they do at Long Branch. And they would think it indecent for people to walk down from permanent dressing cottages over the beach and sands to the water, even if they were clad in ever so becoming and picturesque costumes. • You felt a little chilly? That was my fault; I should have told you that we could have ascertained at the office what the temperature of the water is. Let us just step in and see. Here it is. May 3, 9a. m., temperature at Pier head, 51 ° : in breakers, 52 ° ; wind, west, strong; sea, rough. Go and see the bathers from the pierhead? Oh, no! it is too late. No one is allowed to bathe • from the pier after 'J o'clock, and, besides, it is altogether too rough this morning. No one would be allowed to bathe in deep water with such a fresh breeze and such a sea on. And, too, people are not allowed to bathe el fresco be yond the Redoubt on the one side and Holy Well on the other after nine in the morning. You see people bathe out there for the reason that they save the expense of a machine. They undress upon the beach and bathe as Adam did in Pison or Euphrates before Eve invented aprons. The Eves too? Oh, no! ladies are not seen up that way before 9 o'clock, without it is back over the Downs where they some times rest a while behind some clump of yellow flow ered gorse or furz, and if they do turn their field glass a lorgnette seaward, it is to watch the flying scud or "cat's paws" which the breeze raises like snow upon the crests of the undulating swell. If the ladies were to bathe so—why you should only have seen the sensation the other day when a ladj-, a good swimmer, struck off from the machine and swam along the shore just outside the break ers. She was habited in a pretty pink bathing costume and you should have seen the crutch and tooth pick brigade hurry along the parade with neck craned seaward and eyes straining. Of course it was the graceful action of the swim mer and not the deception color of the cos tumc which attracted. By the way do you see that tall, large man passing along with a firm and somewhat pompous tread. I mean him with the broad shoulders and somewhat Falstaffian contour of vest which is orna mented with a massive double chain termi nating in either vest pocket; heavy eve glasses are at one end and a massive cased watch at the other. What a massive head he has, and massive jaw r massive brow. He i s in fact, a massive man with beard and moustache and hair—rather long as black as a raven's wing; his eyes are large and strong looking, although he oc casionally uses his glasses and they can look soft and melting. You see him? Well, that is Herman Merrivale,the playwright and poet. In politics he is almost a radical, and he is as fearlessly outspoken as his step is firm and his voice strong. See that little man- 'who hardly »mes up to his shoulder, and whom he is Mdressing now? I mean the man with snowy locks and a face even more fun ny than that of the late George Fox or Grimaldi. How his eyes twinkle with fun, and how his good tempered, smooth, hairless ace twists and squirms, and how shadows and clouds and smiles and broad grins and sparkling pleasure scintilctions chase each other over that wondrously ' talk ing face. That, cara " mia, is Sir John Bennett, a . thorough radical who lectures upon royal pauperism, effete house of lords. He is fond of" expatiating UDon the shame-faced Droeensr of NelGuvnne and the French orange girl who drew annu ally their pension as a badge of their ances tors' shame —the reward of their grandmoth er's prostitution. Sir John was down here at the liberal banquet given the other day at that splendid hotel—the Queen's, and he has not returned to town yet. Sir John likes Eastbourne. Look at that gentleman seated there upon the roof of the paviilion. What a contrast he is to the two gentlemen we have just seen and yet he has too a smiling, be nevolent, happy looking face. His hair, too, ih as black as a coal, and so are his eyes, and so, too, his short side whiskers. He is closely shaven and from flic dark skin ami slight cuts 01 cracks in the skin it is easy to see that it is not a pleasant operation getting rid of a day's growth of such a beard as his. What pure white teeth he has. Forty do you say* He is seventy if he is a day. Queer dress? Yes, to you Americans. A large hemmed silk hat, stove pipe you call it, with black cords on either side extending from the rim to near the crown. A long coat which can be buttoned up, the chin, a silk upron reaching nearly to the knees, short breeches fastened Just below the knee, shoes and buckles ami cloth gai ters from the shoes to above the calf. Yes you are right, he is a bishop and a remarka ble one too. He was when I knew him first, Bey. Dr. Temple (1 was one of his pupils) and one of the authors of '-Essays and Re views" which electrified the orthodox church. From the head mastership of Rug by he was translated to the see of Exeter, and now Dr. Temple is bishop of Exeter. If I wore to tell you how through respect, reverence and love he ruled in contrast to Dr. Arnold's rule of fear and discipline, of his wonderful influence with his pupils, his common >cusc theological lectures, his mov ing tearful sermons, I fear I should detain you too long. Bless me, how the time flies; I had intended taking you to Peversey castle, but we have let the time slip past and the four horsed wagonette has gone, and as you cannot walk as I, we will defer the trip to another day. Where are the wires to the electric lamp ports' I am glad you a.sked me, because there is a wrinkle from which even you Yankees can learn something. I have seen it stated in your papers that it is im possible to arrange electric light wires any other way than upon unsightly poles. Now Eastbourne is too pretty a place to be so dis figured and so we place the wires in gas tubing and put them undereround. And thlß, Brother Jonathan, will be the way of disposing of all electric wires in "the future. They are safer there and not so likely to be put out of working order by winds and storms, besides it removes their uusightly presence from the streets which in New York and St. Paul look like dilapidated laundry yards. But I fear, Mr. Globe, I am getting very uninteresting and will bring myself back to what I intended to tell you of the news. Two days ago was May day. Every reader of Tennyson knows how May day was wont to be celebrated, and associated In our mind with the day is the May pole and the May queen. The first of these I fear, has died out entirely, and the second is very rare. In Cheshire the custom still prevails and this year at Knutsford the prettiest child of the village was crowned '•Queen of the May," with thousands of spec tators looking on. Lord Tennyson \A-ote to those having the matter in hand express ing a hope that the people will long continue their time honored festival. It is to be hoped that the pretty maiden will not be so unfortunate as the laureate's heroine who discarding poor Robin fell a victim to the stranger's whiles and flattered vanity. The day was observed mostly by poor children carrying around garlands of flowers covered generally with a sheet. The custom is to knock at the door with "Please do you want to see my garlands mam?" and on being presented with a penny or two the covering is removed. Some of these "garlands" are handsome and must have taken great labor to make being generally composd of wild flowers. May day, a few years back, was the "Sweep's day" but this year the sweeps did not muster In force with their "Jack in the green." The Sweeps of Eastbourne however had their usua show. One sweep (chimney sweep) was en cased in a frame like a pyramid covered with ivy—the "Jack in thegreen. Little boys with sooted faces and clothes patched with bright colored calicoes danced around him while "Black Sal" and "Dusty Bob" with pan and brush led them. " Other sweeps produced execrable noises upon a tambourine, a violin, and an old trombone. Mr. Bass, the head of the great Burton brewing firm, is dead. If he did much wrong, as prohibitionists will tell us he did, he also did some good. Among his acts of liberality may be mentioned the building and endowment of a church at Bur ton, considered one of the finest modern churches in England. He also erected a smaller church near his own residence, ne gave the town of Derby a large recreation ground, with public swimming baths; he gave £30,0000—§100,000—towards building a new free library and museum. He buili the "St. Paul's Institute" at Burton, at a cost of §175,000, and gave it to the town. He next gave Derby a museum and library and $15,000 towards an art gallery. It is narrated of Mr. Bass "that, after the passing of the first reform bill, he warmly ex poused the cause of the Whig candidates for Derbyshire. The Tory candidate, Sir Roger Gresley, was defeated by a small majority, and Mr. Bass, smarting under a supposed injury, sent him a challenge to fight a duel, and would have fought him, too, hud not a friend laid information. This act, saved his powder, but interfered for a time with his personal liberty. It was under Mr. M. T. Bass's direction that the firm of which he was the head assumed such immense dimen sions. The business premises at Burton-on Trent now extend over forty-five acres of freehold and a hundred acres of leasehold, and are extending every year. Mr. Bass was eightj'-nve years of asje at the time of his death. Speaking of longevity Miss Sally McKee Worford died /U Twicken ■ ham on Sunday in her hundred and second year, and untii a few weeks before her death was able to read the daily newspapers com fortably without the aid of glasses. Speaking of deaths reminds one of the other end of life's chain and in this connec tion let me tell you what seems even to lay over anything for "tall stories" I ever hoard out west: There was lately presented to the empress of Russia a laboring man who has had two wives, the first of whom brought him four times four children at a birth~ seven times three aud ten times two. The second wife has had children seven times; the first time she presented her husband with three children, and the other six times two. The whole number of children by the two wives amounted to seventy-two.l! Lord Falmouth, for several years an ar dent supporter of horse racing, has retired from the turf and sold off his splendid stud of horses. It is stated that the nohle lord never bet either on his own horses or other people's, and yet he made money in the business, as you may see from the followin" --figures: In 1871 he won £4,211; 1872 -t'9 --974; >873, £7,072; 1874, £15,975; '1875 £21,163 10s; 1876, £10,410 10s: 1877 £34 1 37S 10s; 1878, £37,509; 1879, £28 528 10s -1880, £16,061; 1881, £14,104; 1882 £14, --104 10s; 1883, £13,434; making a grand total of £226,654 10s in 13 years, and his expenses for the same period is estimated at £75,000 or £80,000. To these winninss should be added the result of sales, which wonld amount to £200,000 more. In referring to the failure of your J. R. Keene, Pendrcgon, one of the best sporting writers this|ide of the Atlantic, says: "Mention of plungers reminds me that the great game of speculation has had disastrous effect on Mr. James R. Keene, of New York, owner of Foxhall and other American-bred horses who have figured conspicuously on the English turf. It was not the game of specu lation as played by Sir John Willoughby and Mr. Baird, alias Abingdon, that acted in such scurvy manner to Mr. Keene—it was the game as played by our old friend Mr. Affable Hawk of pleasant memory. Members of that. speculative club in the city, facetiously known as the Stock Exchange! because not one per (Jent. of the business done is of an exchange description, will well understand the position of affairs when it is stated that Mr. Keene, in the course of a few weeks, dropped two millions of dollars while keeping up margins. He has now determined to suspend further payments, so he says, in or der that all his creditors may be treated with equal fairness. Mr. Keene's descent has been swift and easy. Little more than six months ago he was well up among the "brown stone mansion millionaires of the Empire City." Trusting too much in Northern Pocific, he got on the down line with the result that lie i s now a defaulter! A Pretty Woman's Secret. Fear of discovery, when she resorts to false hair and dyes, is a source of con stant anxiety to her.

Mr. Keene was a generous employer and a good sportsman, and the news of his ill-for tune will be anything but pleasant to the many why have cause to remember with sat isfaction the career of the white and blue spots upon English race courses." Mr. Lawrence Barrett does not appear to have made a hit in London. Ido not know if you are inundated with telegrams speak ing of his phenomenal success as in the case of Lotta and others but I take this from a leading journal just to show you exactly how he is handled here by the critics : . "On Monday, Mr." Lawrence Barrett ap peared in Bulwer's play of "Richelieu." in. which he personated the wily cardinal. ' The performance from beginning to end, was tame and tiresome. Mr. Barrett's deliberate manner of. delivery, without a spark of life or soul in it. was wearying to a degree, and. of the humour of the character he gave no indication whatever. The scenes "lacked spirit, and -what are called the "points" of the piece fell flat and unnoticed. At times he permitted himself — simulating extreme debility—to speak so low as to be inaudible. He commenced his performance in too low a key, :<O. was never able to rise above it. He evidently mistakes the tone of the play, for it is not incapacity or want of talent that prevents him from playing Richelieu in an' effective manner. The play was moreover badly cast. The De Maup'rat of Mr. Louia James was heavy and without distinction or interest; his voice, bearing and manner to tally unfit him for the part of a bold, dashing and ardent lover. The Julie of Miss Maiie Wainright was weak, Mr. Fernandez was an, an excellent Baradas, and Mr. Mark Quin-: ton, although somewhat wanting in dignity, 5 was satisfactory as the king. It is only fair to say that the applause was hearty, and that the Mr. Barrett was called before the curtain more than once, and again recalled when the curtain finally fell. We might give a reason for this unmerited demonstration, but wa forbear." There are many things that I wanted to say, Ma. Globe, but some way or other I; can't get the "hang" of telling pithily and tersely what I want to say, and here lam again with only a tithe of what I sat out to! write you, and I am sure more than mv al-j loted space filled. I will trj and behave bet-' ter next time. Weedox Goodfellow. • The Manitoba Legislature.
