ST. PAUL MATTERS. An Indian Entertains and Instructs a St. Paul Audience on the Affairs of His People. What th 9 People Think of Making a Park of the Third Street Terrace. Shall the City Have an Ice Carni val?--Another Romance In Heal Life. £he Kelief Society and Its Worlt— The Old Settler--Street Sayings. THE INDIAN QUESTION. A. Full-Blooded Talumney Speaks For the Keel Jflan. The Indian question was treated forcibly and eloquently at the Central Presbyterian church last night by P. O. Matthews. He was born in 1846 of Indian parents of the Talumney tribe in California, and was known among his people as Owaha. At the age of 5 years he was taken to Beth ones, W.Va., where his education began in the public school, and later he attended the Methodist institutes at Mt. Pleasant and lowa City, la. He left his books and en listed in the Army of the Cumberland and fought through the Kebellion with the Sixteenth army corps. At the conclusion Df the war he went to Ohio and continued his studies at Oberlin. In 1875 lit' was Bent as missionary among the Indians of Idaho and Montana where he has labored jince. Owing to the inclement weather last night the attendance was light, but several prominent citizens and Interested advocates [>£ the Indian question were noticed in the ludience. In the course of his remarks, THE SPEAKER S VID! "My people are paupers and I am ashamed to repeat the word. They are not all vagabonds, however, as they are gener ally called. They do not all lay in the shade of trees in the noonday sun with nothing to direct their attention, but there are Bmart, energetic people among them, who are willing and anxious to work, to cultivate the land aud improve their condi- Keference was made to the condi tion of a certain tribe in Washington Ter ritory, to which about live years ago a mis rv went, and with one yoke of oxen six Indian boys started in to educate ,:,-. Now the tribe has i acres of land fenced in and under . ition, while they have schools taught young men of their own nation and tilled pulpits with their sous. "To edu catethe Indian, "he said, "I do not think ttie children should be taken away from their people. It is hard for a child born in the midst of a camp, where he has the freedom of the woods and mountains and prairies, with no restraint upon his going or coining; no tasks to perform; no social restrictions — to be taken from all these privileges that are dear to him, and isolate him among strangers and bind him down to work, against which bis very nature turns. The teacher Bhould go among the Indians: should learn their customs, their ways, and study their natures and dispositions." He advocated the boarding in preference to the day school for the education of the red children, as he argued in the day school they would come and learn their lessons mechanically and go back to the forest and fields, forgetting all they had learned. THE NATURE OF THE INDIAN must be changed before lie can be success fully educated, lie said. lie claimed that one of the hardest ideas to instill into the mind of the Indian was cleanliness. The government issued each Indian one suit of clothes a year, and consequently he did not have a change of clothes. lie told pitiful stories of the Montana Indians walking to school over the snow with bare feet and bareheaded, with a single blanket wrapped around them. His treatment of the average Indian agent was not' very creditable to those government incumbents; and although he avoided personalities, it was evident there were a certain number that be despised. "1 am glad," he said, "that I am permitted to speak and tell you of the needs of my people, although I am not able to do it with eloquence and in a flowery strain of logic. Three hundred thousand Indians need to be educated; 40,000 of them are boys and girls and should be in school, while only 25,000 are provided for, the others being left to roam about in ignorance. The Indian has more reverence for the Bible than any other race. You may ask if they ever pray. When they are on the warpath they stop on every high peak and LIGHTING THEIR I'TPE offor it to the sun and earth, asking the Great Spirit to watch over them and bless them. There are many things the Christian people will have to change in the mind of the Indian before they will come out all right. Two of them are their manner of performing the marriage ceremony and thi \r disposition to criticise the teachings of the missionaries." The discourse closed with an eloquent ap peal to the people to interest themselves in the welfare of the Indian. Gen. It. W. Johnson made a f§w brief remarks and the meeting closed with prayer and singing. Till: TSilltD STREET TERRACE. Opinions off Citizens on the Desira« bility ol' staking" it a. Park. Discussion on the project of making a park or terrace on the west side of Third Btreet, above the roller mill, is revived by the commencement by E. P. Drake, who own; the iand, of excavations for the foundation of a big warehouse. Everybody is sop. that this is going to be done, as that point, overlooking the river and West St. Paul, H a beautiful spot for a park. Col. FarriiiKton, the deputy customs collector, who n ls formerly the president of the board of public works, said that the matter had been brought before that board time Rial again, and it had been asked to con demn the property and make a park of it, but as it is not a strictly local improvement, the money could be obtained, in the opinion lit the board, only by a general tax, which the board has not the power to levy. The question was once submitted to popular vote and defeated. It could be arranged, however, CoL Farrington thought, in the legislature, perhaps this winter. The fact is that the adjacent business property would be impaired by turning this bluff into t park, so the tax ought to fall upon the whole people. Other interviews were as follows: Aid. Johnson—l don't like it. I had hoped that the city would get hold of that property and that the elevator and mill would eventually lind it for their interest to move and the whole riverfront from St. Peter street could be made into a park or terraced. Of course the more buildings that go up there the less chance the city has for getting hold of the property. I believe the action taken by Mr. Drake will arouse the citizens and they will take some action in regard to the matter. Jusr what ran be done I don't know." City Attorney Murray—l don't know what can be done. We have been slow in the matter. Twenty-five years ago the city could have bought all that property for §36 a lot. but it thought that was too much, ami wouldn't touch it. Now i expect it would take $100,000 to buy the property. [ should like to see the whole riverfront terraced and decorated. Ii would give peo ple coming into the city amuehmore i'uvor able impression than the row of rough-look ing buildings that now stand propped, up against the face of the cliff, but I am afraid it is too late. In '81, by an act of the legis lature, the city was authorized to purchase the property for park purposes, subject to a favorable vote of the people. It was put to a ballot, and was lost by a large majority. We have been too siQW in this matier, and 1 don't see what can be done about it. ]). P. Merrill —I regard it as a very treat paisfortune that that beautiful and pictur esque spot, which is so convenient and so near to th<- heart of the city that almost every citiren can visit it almost at a mo ment's notice, can not be saved for the pub lic use. It would make a most lovely and charming place troth which to obtain a View of some of the most attractive scenery to be found anywhere. It is so refreshing to look across the river to the grand bluffs «£ West St Paul, up the river toward Fort Snellins, and also down that beautiful sweep of the river to Dayton's Bluff and be low. No money that can be made out of that beautiful spot by commerce and busi ness can ever reimburse the city for its loss. Let once such structures as Mr. Drake pro poses to erect there be built and then all hope of ever obtaining the spot for a park is gone forever? The buildings will never be removed for the purposes of a park. Still there is this thing about it, men cannot be expected to allow their prop erty to lie idle forever with the expectation that the city will take it. As to the ice palace, i don't know. It's something 1 never thought of much. It don't strike me as specially desirable, though for all that it might be. The truth is I don't know enough about it to give an opinion. H. S. Fairchild —I think it is a good idea to have it built up. Of course if we could have a park constructed there, or a boule vard, as some call it, it would be very desir able, but there seems to be no chance for that. For years that space has been left vacant, and the matter of a boulevard has been talked of for a great while, but no steps have been taken to have it used for the purpose of a park. Now, what is the use of wasting words any longer. If the city intended ever to do anything with it it would have done it long ago. There is no reason to hope it will now or hereafter secure it for park purposes. The matter is probably out of the question. The spot is not appre ciated. 1 would rather have the improve ment that Mr. Drake purposes to put there than to let the ground alone and take the chance of the city securing and improving it. It the city had a mind to it could make a gem of that spot, but it does not look as though it ever would. C. W. Hacketfr—l don't know about this boulevard business. Undoubtedly it is very desirable to beautify and ornament the city. Such adornments add value to the property, ;i!id are very desirable independent of the matter of value. While we must all be willing to beautify and adorn the city, it is a mat tor of prudence aud good business judgment that in making these improve ments wt* do so with a proper regard to the financial condition of the people and the city. Now. is the city in a condition to buy or condemn the land and then make all the necessary Improvements? Our taxes are pretty heavy. Still i am not well enough informed in regard to the matter to be able to give much of an opinion. W. A. Van Slyke —l am opposed to it— teetotally opposed to it. It is a shame that Mr. Drake should be allowed to go to work and put up a warehouse on that bluff. I tell you what it is: if Chicago had that bluff you could not buy it lor '$10,000,000. It would be absolutely priceless. That whole bluff, from the mill up, ought to be condemned by the city at once for the pur poses of a boulevard. During the sum mer I caused an order to be sent to the board of public works, in regard to con demning five lots of block 20, about 300 feet, and all of block 21, Itice & Irvine's addition, making in all 800 feet above the roller mill, for boulevard purposes, the cost of thfi same to be assessed upon Third street from Seven corners to Broadway; on Jackson, from Third to Seventh and thence to Seven corners, and on all the property between the streets named. This would have made the assessment very light, and that property could have paid the as sessment without feeling it, but the board of public works sat down on the project. The whole of that property could have been got at that time for $100.000. 1 do not see what the people of St. Paul are thinking about to let such an opportunity as this go by un improved. To devote that bluff to mer cantile purposes would be a species of sacrilege. Then; is no excuse for it. The whole people of the city are Interested in having a park or boulevard there and they would willingly pay for it. All strangers would go there and gaze for hours upon the beautiful scenery, and the reputation of that park would give St. Paul a world-wide reputation. It is surprising that the people Of tiiis city should throw aside with so much indifference this great opportunity. As to the ice palace scheme [ know nothing about it. It would be a very strange thing for the people of this city to do to pay out $20,000 for an ice palace and at the same time refuse to secure, that splendid site for a liar!:. Ansel Oppenheim —l own a lot on the bluii' you speak of. just above the roller mill, and have held it. but the city don't seem to bite. The city can't expect people to hold their property forever. Albert Scheffer —I am sorry Mr. Drake is guinLC to hold this. The city certainly (>n_at to secure it for a park. The ice palace is a good idea. THE WINTER CARNIVAL,. What St. Paul Citizens Think About the Project. An effort vws made some time ago by the Globe to gather the consensus of opiuion in St. Paul on the subject of an ice palace, but little was then definitely known of the matter, nor even yet has there been suffi cient light thrown on the subject by its projectors to give the foundation of much intelligent opinion on the subject. There were citizens who did not at first regard the plan with much favor, as it was not thought altogether vise to advertise the coldness of St. Paul winters in this borean manner. But then it would advertise St. Paul winters as steady and pleasant, which would not be so bad. Inasmuch, however, as the movement is likely to be in the hands of a private stock company, it will be likely to be a success if verbal encouragement can make it so. "I don"t know of any city in the country that is better adapted, naturally, for such an enterprise than St. Paul," said Mr. K. U. Munger yesterday, in speaking of the ice carnival. "By Christmas or New Year's at the farthest, the ice will be thick enough for the ice palace and there are few cities where the outside sports, in the way of tobogganing and coasting, could be practiced to better advantage. From St. Anthony hill we used to coast down past the Seven corners to the river, a distance of half a mile at least, and there is no reason why the same stretch is not available for tobagganing, if the authorities will allow it. It would be almost impossible to hold a car nival anything like the one that has been usually held in Montreal in a city where there were not hills. Duluth if it had people enough would be the best place in Minnesota. Then it would probably be best to have a grand parade one day; a sort of Mardi Gras procession, in which all the foreigners in the city should be induced to appear in the styles of dress and with emblems peculiar to their native countries. I believe, if properly managed at the start, and if the proper men were at the head of the enterprise, that it might be made a success financially and a most, en joyable feature of winter entertainment. It would doubless attract many visitors to the city, and if it did uot it would be a paying and pleasant diversion for St. Paul people alone." "Have you thought of that ice palace yet, Mr. Murray?" inquired a Globe reporter of the city attorney yesterday. •'Well, no, not much," he replied, "I don't know much about the matter yet. I want to wait till Thompson produces his plans and specifications, then I can get some idea of the thing. 1 expect it would be quite an attraction, however, but we would want to know what we were going about before we started on the thing, as 1 anticipate it would cost considerable money to buiid and equip it. Then 1 don't know now just where we could put it. Of course it would have to be somewhere near the lake or river and I don't know of any loca tion where it would be convenient. If the palace can be built and the carnival started and carried through all right, I've no doubt it would be a good thing for the city." Health Officer Jones was asked what he thought of the proposed carnival. Said he: "You can put me on record as being emphatically in favor of it. I think these out-door sj>orts in winter and Canadian pastimes should be cultivated more than they are. A carnival here would be worth | a great deal of money to the city, and St. Paul i> just the place for a thing of that kind. The topography of the country is favorable for coasting, and then we have the rivers and lakes for skating and driving. 1 believe an ice palace would stand until March, and the amusement that would be derived from the carnival as well as the physical culture would be highly beneficial." Ansel Oppenheim—l don't know any- I thing about it. It would draw a crowd. i The city ought first t look out for that boulevard and secure that; C. W. Hackett —The ice palace would be a very attractive structure to gaze upon, THE ST. PAUL DAILY GLOBE. WEDNESDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 28, 18S5. and would furnish a good deal of entertain ment for many, but it is doubtful if it would be desirable to undertake one here. H. S. Fairchild—The ice palace would be a good thing. Although lam on the com mittee I have not taken a very active part in securing the palace here. The chair man, however, has written, and wul in a few days be able to report so that any one will be able to know all that is necessary in order to come to a proper under standing of the whole matter and what the structure will cost. I understand the ex pense will be about $13,000. Now, as to the size, location, etc.. 1 know nothing. The passenger agents of the different railroads entering St. Paul think very favor ably of the erection of an ice palace at St. Paul this winter. If one was erected and advertised in a way to make it popular it would bring a great many people to the city, who would spend money and boom the place during the winter. The carnival at Montreal was a great success last season, and took a great lot of money to that city. The railroads gave special rates to parties attending the carnival. and would do likewise, in all probability, to St. Paul. The passenger agents like to bring people to St. Paul as well as they like to carry people away, and would, no doubt, lend all the assistance possible for the erection of the contemplated ice house. ANOTHER ST. PAIL ROMANCE. This Time a Doctor and a Fair Pa tient are the Dramatis Personxe. About eleven months ago a family moved into the new Lytle Terrace block, on Cedar street, in the rear of the capitol, the name of the family being Barrington, and the profession of the head of the family, a homoeopathic physician. The family circle consisted of the father, mother and one daughter—a girl of about 19 years, and ap parently an invalid. A very odd circum stance connected with the new-comers was, that they never seemed to associate with any of the other families living in the block, aud "when any approaches to famili arity were made by any of the other resi dents of the terrace they were immediately resented. They were Spiritualists, and ac customed to giving seances in the house, Dr. Samuel j. Dickson, a magnetic healer from Chicago, who made his home with the Barringtons, being the medium. The daughter, Daisy Barrington. had meanwhile been constantly attending the roller-skating rink 011 Jackson street, being there almost every afternoon and evening. One night last January, while skating in the rink, she was unfortunate enough to fall and injure her spine, and was confined to her bed for several wewks. Dr. Dick son, it is said, insisted that he could cure the young lady, and he took her away with him to Chicago or some other Western city. Mrs. Barrington then broke down the bar rier of reserve which she had built between herself and her neighbors, and informed them of her daughter's injury and subse quent trip to the East. WITH DX. DICKSOX. Shortly after the departure of Dr. Dick son and Miss Daisy the Barrington family moved to Kice street, between College and Summit avenues, where they remained but a short time. A sheriff's sale was an nounced to take place at their residence, and Dr. and Mrs. Barringtou told their former neighbors that they were going to Chicago, and if Daisy had not recovered sufficiently to warrant her safe return to St. Paul that they would take her south. She showed a letter which she had received from Daisy to a certain lady friend living near her, to demonstrate the girl's filial love. The lady to whom the letter was exhibited was surprised to see the headline on the let ter dated Niagara Falls, Feb. 16. She did not make any inquiries about Daisy's pres ence at Niagara Falls, but told the fact to a neighbor. The Barrington's returned to St. Paul after a month's absence, and Dr. Dickson and Daisy accompanied them. They engaged their old quarters at Lytle terrace, and Dr. Dickson swung his shingle to the wind, as an electro magnetic healer. Everything went on smoothly after their arrival, Dr. Dickson being very attentive to the slight est wants of Daisy, taking her out riding every Sunday afternoon, and iv many little ways showing his regard for her. The neighbors then began to think that Daisy and Dr. Dickson had been married, and when they saw Daisy sitting on his lap at the window, they felt sure of it. So one of the neighbors summoned up courage and asked if Daisy was married to Dr. Dickson. Mrs. Barrington, to whom the question was addressedjooked very indignant and replied: "Certainly not; Dr. Dickson lias a wife and three children in Chicago." This was a bomb shell thrown among the residents of the neighborhood, when the facts became gen erally known. About three weeks ago Dr. Barrington left suddenly tor Denver, but returned after a short absence. Last Thurs day it was learned that the whole family had quietly packed their personal effects and left with Daisy for Denver. THE FUH.MTLiiK REMAINED in the house, which gave rise to more questioning, until Dr. Dickson gave it out that it belonged to him. The whole matter has created not a little talk among the neighborhood, the several families being fully alive to the fact that a nice little ro ll antic drama was being enacted in their midst, and the responsibilty which devolved upon them of learning the latest particulars about the doctor and Daisy. Dr. Dickson was seen last night by a re porter at his residence, and denied that lie had had any improper relations with Daisy, and strongly deprecated any inferences that might be drawn to that effect. He had gone to Chicago with her. he said, but not to Niagara Falls. He admitted that he had three children and a wife living, the latter having commenced a divorce suit against him, which is stiil pending in Chicago. STREET SAYINGS. When the friends of John Gribben, the missing man, reported the matter to Chief Clark, the chief said, "Perhaps he was kidnapped." "No, I don't believe he has," replied the man. "He never had anything to do with women at all." *** The Dispatch says there is some dispute regarding the spelling of the name of the man who "shot his friend Gammengenger." Not so. In the first place the friend's name is Gammengenger, and the name of the man who shot him was Horejs, although the directory spells it Horeys and his sign spells it Horreish. *** Ole Thompson, who fell from the top of the new Opera House block on Monday, is the first man who has been injured on any of Commodore Davidson's buildings, except one man who fell from the Union blßck while putting up a fire escape. *♦• The police department was in a high state of rage yesterday over the publication in a morning paper of the assertion that the police were using disreputable means to dispose of the tickets for their approaching ball —blackmailing saloonkeepers and oth ers on their beats and sending them broad cast through bawdy houses and other places of ill repute. The fact is that no to the time of that publication not a ticket had been put out. *** G. W. Marchant and "Harry" Downs of Minneapolis sat in the rotunda of the Mer chants yesterday afternoon, talking of hotels and other topics, and a GLOBE re porter heard the following: "This hotel is to St. Paul about what the Nicollet is to Minneapolis," said Mr. Marchant. "Yes. It's where the old-tiiuers come to hold down the chairs," replied Mr. Downs. '-It's a sort of a busies* head quarters. 1 wonder how many lies have been told in this rotunda. Just think of it! This is where much of the lobbying is done during the sessions of the legislature, and it used to be a great place to make real estate deals. Great Scott! I don't suppose there's another place in the state where there's been so much wholesale lying done as right here," and then they got up and started on a trot for the 5:30 short line train for the Mill city. *..* A variety of opinions may be caught in a half hour's talk with the Minnesota men who come to St. Paul daily on the probabil ities of an extra session. Five members of the house who happened to be in St. Paul yesterday were asked for their views. Each and all of them, after saying that they would not like to have their names men tioned, expressed themselves pretty posi- tively. Four were confident that the ses sion would be called. One had such a strong belief in it that he said he had recently given up arrangements he had made to spend the winter out of the state. None of them gave any very good reasons for his belief except that "indications pointed that way." One said that the Farmers' alliance was preparing a docu ment in the nature of a petition or memo rial, which would favor an extra session. This, he believed, would have considerable weight with the governor, This petition would be based on the needs for some change in the grain and warehouse and rail road laws. I \ *** Secretary Hart of the state board of charities and corrections has about com pleted his quarterly report, to be submitted at the meeting next week. It is believed that among the other sensational develop ments to be brought out at that time, the "plan for a new lookup, with diagram," will not be overlooked. V* "This afternoon," said Chief Clark, yes terdr.y, "we sent out the first tickets for the policeman's ball that have been placed on sale, and they are to be found only at the banks and insurance offices. Special care will be taken that none of these tickets get into the hands of disreputable charac ters. I waut the people to understand that the policemen of this city can get up a ball and carry it through in as good shape as any body." "I'd like to know," said a big, powerful cop on Cedar street, "who said we had been selling tickets to a ball to hard char acters. I'd make him prove his words or we"d have a scrap for points on the spot." *..* "One strange freak in human nature that I notice," said a sober-looking individ ual standing on the corner of Third and Wabasha streets yesterday, "is this: Now, I've noticed that in crossing a wet and muddy walk, that different ladies hold their skirts at different heights. A woman with small feet will invariably lift her skirts to her shoe tops, while a woman with larger pedals will hardly lift her skirts at all. Now a slim lady, in nine cases out of ten, will let her skirts drag in the mud, while the plump woman v.ill gather up her skirts long before she strikes the walk, and she takes particular pains to go tripping across on her toes; it ogives a better effect, you know." €i LOBULES.
