The stock market yesterday was somewhat active in the morning and moderately irregu- lar during the day, but at no time was there anything of special interest in the work of the day.

There is a diversity of opinion among medical men as to whether sleep- in?? with open windows is .: bene- ficial or; injurious. Popular hygien- -ists assert that night air is noty injur- ious, and that persons are not so liable to take cold' who sleep with their windows open during the night time. On the other Ride it is argued thai the body is more sen : sitive to the changes of the atmosphere dur- ing sleeping hours than at any other time. It is well \u25a0known- that the bodily temperature sinks slightly during sleep; the physiologi- cal functions; act with diminished activity, and hence the resistance of the economy" to morbid influences is proportionately les- sened.' The discussion is likely to be revived by the .' eifiwtybad upon Gen. -Grant by sleeping with . open windows at the Drexel ' cottage <>» il:)imt' McGregor. If be hn- : proves Vit will be claimed as a victory '. by those who advocate the practice of sleeping in rooms with open windows. . If he sinks rapidly the other, side will charge the de- cline in his condition to the injurlousness of night air. At the elevation of the mountain top the Illustrious - patient ' is not exposed to the noxious influences which are more potent in lower altitudes, y Still he is more exposed' to' the chill of "the night air and /the sudden changes - of temperature which are more likely to occur in the mountains than ' in" the valleys, . These are dangerous to a delicate person, and it must be recognized •. that a , great risk was run when Gen. Grant was removed to Mount McGregor. The fatigue of the journey had its weakening effect, and he Is less able to, resist the changed influences ho must encounter than he was ' in his New York home. The country will await with anxiety for the next few days to know what the exact effect of the change will be. — — _— NEW YORK POLITICS. The Albany Times says that both politi- cal parties iii New York are just now in a state of perplexity as to how to get back the votes they lost ; . last fall. The Republi- can party is in the worse muddle of the two. It lost last year not only the Mugwumps, whose numerical value cannot be estimated on any basis whatever which will tend to accuracy; tho Prohibition Republicans, who may bo set down at 20,000, and a large handful of Stalwarts, probably estimated at 5,000. The return of these recalcitrants may be influenced largely by the nomina- tions made on both sides. A large majority of the Prohibitionists have evidently gone into a party of their own to stay, having shown their strength, somewhat to their own astonishment and certainly to their en- couragement, by increasing their vote in the state from 1,500 „ 1880 to 25,000 in 1884. lt is quite probable that they will continue their party organization, as the old Free Soil and Republican party did, through many years of defeat, with the hope of eventual success. The Stalwarts no doubt were influenced in their opposition last year chiefly by Blame's personal candi- dacy and may return to the party in any event. Yet it would be a very unwise thing for the Republicans, should their con- vention nominate without considering the Stalwart sentiment. It is believed that there is an immense amount of latent stalwartism in the party, somewhat increased by the defeat of Mr. Morton for senator in November. There is no telling what the Mugwumps would do under any circumstances, but if they had enough sensibility to resent insult they would never vote the Republican ticket again. Trie Elmira Advertiser, one of the most influential Republican papers in the state, says very frankly that the Republican nominee this year ' must be a man who has stood by his party all the time and favors no concessions to the Mugwumps. It is in favor of the Mugwumps forming a ticket of their own. Other Republican papers and Republican organizations declare, that the Mugwumps shall never be received into the party again. This declaration is hardly necessary. Ifthe Mugwumps left the party for high principle they are not likely to re- turn to it again. The loss of federal patronage deprives the New York Republi- cans of a power that has always been made very effective. The Democratic problem is one of easier solution. The 17,000 Democratic votes that went to Butler last fall have returned. The Sun, which was the leading organ of the disaffected Democrats, is now training in the front rank -of the regulars. All the •Democratic party has to do is to nominate a straight-out non-factional ticket and vic- tory is theirs. y.'V ; m MISTAKEN SYMPTOMS. Miss Abigail Dodge, who was once known as a brilliant paragraphlst, aud bet- ter known in political journalism as Gail Hamilton, writes from the Virginia White Sulphur Springs: "This is a place where loyal feet cannot tread with grace." Miss Abigail has unquestionably mistaken her rheumatism for loyalty. She doesn't seem to 'realize that with old age comes the stiffening of joints and the difficult motion of the body which robs it of the graceful movements of earlier life. Miss Dodge must remember that a half a century in a person's life makes a wonderful difference in a person's activity. Because little Abi- gail in the blithesome days of girlhood skipped : over the rugged hills of New England with the graceful motion of the gazelle, she must not expect that fifty years later she can glide over the waxed floor of a watering resort ball-room with the same ease and graceful motion that marked her girlhood days. It ; is doubtless true that Miss Gail's feet are as loyal as any woman's could be, but if her feet were ever so disloyal there would probably be the same trouble. There is nothings the matter with the ground about the Virginia springs. There is nothing the matter with the waxed floor of the ball-room. The whole trouble is in the feet. No matter if they are loyal, that doesn't bring back the oil of suppleness to the joint orthe grace of springiness to the tendons. ; Miss Abigail ought not to lose her temper and charge the infirmities of age to the disloyal Democracy. ' The Dem- ocratic party has done a good many things that give ; Miss Gail just cause for com- plaint. It defeated her patron saint for the presidency, and deprived the excellent old lady of the opportunity of bossing the White house and dispensing government patronage. But it did not rob her of the bloom of youth, or filch from her the grace- \u25a0 ful movements of maidenhood. Age and rheumatism are alone responsible for the rebellion in her feet. Instead of soaking her feet in sulphuric acid and writing blis- tering denunciations -of - the Democratic party, Miss Gail would find more comfort from wearing shoes a size or two larger and a liberal application of St. Jacob's oil. If this advice ' was " followed her loyal feet could tread Virginia soil with more grace than at present. She -has made a wrong diagnosis of her case. — •• ' " •I B ' .- SECURITY REQUIRED. Mr. Watterson gives notice through the Courier- that the tariff reformers have enlisted for the war and they are go- ing to fight it out on the old line until the reform is accomplished. He also gives no- tice that no promise of aid in this direction will be received from Mr. Randall unless accompanied by bond with approved secur- ity. Mr. Watterson is of opinion that Mr. Randall's recent overtures to join a tariff reform movement are only a cover under which' he hopes to be again placed at the head of the house committee on appro- priations; - It is now pretty ; well settled that Mr. Carlisle will succeed himself ;as the speaker of the house of representatives," and in view of the close relations existing between Carlisle and Watterson the declarations of ; the latter have a : signifi- cance. IfMr. Randall desires the chair- manship ,of - the appropriations committee during the next congress he may as .well be getting his bond prepared and be hunting up his bondsmen/ : The bond must be good, and strong. *'. '.'/' ' . ii PROSECUTING THE LAND SHARKS, \u0084 Ex-Congressman Jenks of Pennsylvania has been invited , . by . the interior ." depart- ment to take charge of ; the prosecution of cases of fraudulent land entries. ; ; Investi- gations going oh in . the interior department «are constantly: developing fresh' evidences of : fraud and collusion in • the way. in which immense quantities of land have been taken up in the West. Secretary! Lamar has ex- pressed his determination to institute.im- mediate : prosecution, in every case where fraud has been discovered and will use the courts ; to : recover^ for the \ government all that part of, the public^ domain which has ___9__<££__l£^' \'- :^y4.^^®&!Ek been ' stolen from it. DHe : could . have se- lected no one better qualified for. the ' task of prosecutor * than Mr. Jenks. ; Knowing that if he should undertake : , that service he would have a desperate ; fight on his hands', Mr,' Jenks* has made it a condition, pre- cedent to \u25a0 accepting : the , office, that- every official In ; the land office who is suspected of being implicated in the frauds . shall 'be removed. He is right about it, for if those land officials suspected of connivance be left in, office the obstructions which they, and their outside associates could throw, In his way. would baffle all his efforts to prose- cute these claims to a successful issue. ~ r \u25a0\u25a0 \u25a0' ' ' — • i POLITICAL HARMONY. . President Cleveland seems to; have a clear appreciation of> the political rule of harmony and how to promote the success of the Democratic ;\u25a0' party in states where factions exist. In answer toGov.PATTi- son of Pennsylvania, who had called upon him relative to the distribution of I federal patronage in that state, and, after Mr. Ran» dall and other Pennsylvania Democratic leaders had interviewed ' him on the same subject, Mr. Cleveland said: I have now hoard all of you. I. have learned all I could about all your factions, and I have reached this determination; Your differing leaders must differ no longer. Agreement is even more essential to a mi- nority than to a majority.' ' You are oh the under side and the problem is how to get on top. , Union only can accomplish . this. Ido not propose to give appointments to one fac- tion and make enemies not only to j myself, but to the party, out of, two or three other factions. I distinctly declare that until you all agree to drop strife and join hands I shall make no material removals in Pennsylvania. If you cannot agree I shall listen ' to none of you, but shall take the matter inio my own hands and follow my own judgment. - If I do that I shall take care that no faction has cause to complain of favoritism. Everybody will recognize this as sound logic and judicious advice. This political pronuuciamento from the president refers to all the states in which factions exist in the Democratic party. The president under this rule will no doubt proceed to give the united Democracy of the country good rea- son to rejoice in his appointments, and while he is "turning the rascals out" and putting good men in, he will render the party invincible then fast-approaching campaign. -" • ;.y. ; .^y:,«j GLADSTONE'S TITLE TO NOBILITY Gladstone never performed a nobler act than when he declined to receive from Queen Victoria an earldom. He needs no title to add luster to his great name. He will go down into history as the greatest English statesman of his day, who faced the opposition of his own people in a grand patriotic effort to preserve the nation's honor in spite of itself. The English people have treated him shamefully, and their queen knows it and feels it. And yet he is greater to-day in his republican simplicity than Queen Victoria is in her royalty or all ofthe English nobility in "their envy of his pre- eminent genius. They might cover him all over with titles and garters and ribbons and diadems, and yet he would only be. known to fame as Gladstone, the commoner. The English queen does not possess duke- doms enough by bestowing them upon the fallen statesman to rescue her people from the disgrace of the indecent treatment they have subjected him to. Gladstones fame is greater than England's. He belongs to the world. His knighthood is the record of his own achievements. He will stand in history ryU. yy.:. Like some tall cliff, that lifts its awful form, Swells from the vale, and midway leaves the storm; Tho' round its breast the rolling clouds are spread, Eternal sunshine settles on its head. m — ' ONLY WAITING. A record of Gen. Grant's musings as he sat alone on the cottage , piazza at Ma- Gregor last evening, absorbed with his own thoughts Jwould make interesting reading. As the western winds played among the locks of the invalid perhaps they recalled to his mind reminiscences of his life on the prairies when it was a daily struggle to keep the wolf from the door. Or their roaring may have recalled the scenes of Donelson where his star began to rise, or the more historic field " of Appomattox, where it reached . the zenith of its glory. Or it ' may have been that his mind was seeking to explore the misty shadows of the great beyond whose borders he is approaching. That his thoughts were of himself and of the end which must soon come was demonstrated by the memoranda he made immediately after entering the house. It is a very sol- emn thing to see a man who has filled the full measure of earthly ambition retiring from the world to sit down and await, with- out power to avert, the destiny which ends his career on earth. Yet there is an ad- mirable heroism in the patient manner with which Gen. Grant awaits the inevitable. When a man gets to bragging about his an cestors he is generally accorded the same lati- tude that the man who tells the fish stories enjoys. The newspaper critics ought to let up a little on Mr. Bayard under the circum- stances. It was the first opportunity in a long time that the distinguished Delawarean had to get away from -home. And when a man-becomes a stranger in a strange land there is nothing he is fonder of than telling the people among whom he is temporarily cast what a dickens of a fellow "grandpop" was. It gives the stranger an air of importance In the estimation of the natives, and is a par- donable tribute to the memory of the old man whether he amounted to shucks or not. While Mr. Bayard's offense may not be jus- tifiable, it is certainly excusable. And besides, his little fiction was a source of infinite en- joyment to the Missourians, who set a good deal of store on these grandfather tales.'yyy- m A Washington correspondent who saw Mr. Randall in a Washington hotel the other night says he wears a fifty-cent straw hat, a $25 business suit and a thick pair of boots, and from this evidence of plainness in dress draws the inference that Mr. Randall is posing for 1888. Mr. Randall was never an ostentatious man and always dressed with becoming simplicity. There is Mr. Hen- dricks, who is a much older man than Sam Randall, and who is fonder of posing for presidential nominations,' wears a silk hat, a starched collar and blacks his boots. 'It is not safe to measure a candidate's aspirations by the style of his dress. It Is only the man who spits tobacco juice over his shirt front that is an announced candidate. ."*': — : — — — -'-, '.' ' 1~.

This is the beginning of a general movement to break up the brutal custom. Pugilists would do well to put themselves in training for a more respectable way of earn- ing a living.

Yesterday the Red Rock camp meeting commenced, at the grounds;, about six miles down the river, by the introductory services, which commenced at 8 o'clock last ? evening, with Revs. Wagner, Van Anda and others in charge. The weather was very favorable and the gathering promises to be very large. A striking feature this year will be the American camp meeting. In ad- dition, the Swedes and Norwegians will hold meetings. One strik- ing feature will be the great union meeting, which will be .addressed by the most eminent Methodist divines. . The ar- rangements for the meeting include ser- mons on such subjects as Existence of God, Bible Doctrine of Depravity, Atonement, Witness of the Spirit, Sanctification, Char- acter of Christ, Personal Responsibility, Christian Education, The Sabbath, The Bible, Revelation from God, Justification, Methodism and Amusement, Christ as a Teacher, Systematic Beneficence, Phases of Modem Infidelity. y ': . The committee of arrangements -consists of Revs. Van Anda, Wagner, Forbes, Gale and Kopp, and it is endeavoring to make the meeting a great success. , The Dell Failure. The assignment of Fred Dell & Co., wholesale liquor dealers at No. 189 West Third street, which was announced yester- day morning, 'appears to be considerable of an affair. . While neither the assignor nor assignee will talk, it is supposed the liabili- ties will reach -§30, 000, with assets $4,000 ! or 85,000 less. • They had a very small line of credit in this city, the bulk of their in- debtedness being in Chicago, Louisville, St. Louis, Cincinnati and Peoria. The firm began business in October, 1880, the "Co." being nominal.- - Mr. Dell had a good repu- tation in the trade and was reported worth about §5,000. Peter Hoffman, the present assignee, was admitted in February, 1881, and put $6,000 into the business. The firm had good credit, but in August, 1883, Dell bought out his partner. The failure is due to poor collections. v - m A Bad Temper. \u25a0 John Oaks was unexpectedly run in last night on the charge of assault. Oaks was crossing the street near the city hall when a span of horses attached to a carriage con- taining the Misses King came along. The driver, a lad comparatively, held up to a slow walk, but one of the horses' head came so close to Oaks that he lost his tem- per. He grabbed the horses by the bits, jerked them around, then caught the whip out of the socket and struck the driver twice over the head with it. He had hardly put down the whip again when Officer Nu- gent, who noticed the whole disturbance, tapped him on the shoulder and escorted him to the police station. He put up $25 bail for his appearance in court this morn- ing. y.yVyy' '_________: . ' -. " Public Works. . The board of public works met last even- ing.

' At 10:30 the i delegates proceeded to St. Michael's church, where ' solemn^ high mass was celebrated by Father Shanley,' assisted by Father Fitzgerald as \ deacon,' y Father. Burns sub-deacon, arid Father Murphy, di- rector of ceremonies. The sermon was de- livered by Bishop Ireland, on the Virtue of Self-denial. V: It was a most powerful appeal to' his hearers,- and was listened to with the utmost attention. ; The church was beauti- fully decorated, by the ladies, with choicest exotics, the. altar being covered : with flow- ers. The music was grand. ; THE BANQUET. - .'"' \ : The Catholic ladies of Stillwater did them- selves honor in the grand spread prepared for the delegates, who, to the, number of some 220, sat down to the most bounteous repast that could be set before any body of men. The' attendance could not have been I improved, j It was served in Music hall at 2 o'clock. The supplies had been sent in such abund- ance that four times the number could have been served. \u25a0«.' AFTERNOON SESSION. The report of the committee oil creden- tials was not finished until the afternoon, when several additions were made as well as changes. The various county presidents made short speeches. The president's address was a practical one*. He advocated the ' formation of a lecture bureau, so that all the societies in the union could be visited, as the present largo number and the distance apart ren- dered it impossible lor any one man to visit them all. He had seen ,as many as he could. He found the union in a prosperous condition, and the report would show upward of 1,000 increase in membership during the past year. He ; thanked the delegates for many courtesies shown him during his year in office. lie would impress upon the members the need of electing their best men in their unions as officers, and then they had a guarantee of success. . - > ; Bisljop Ireland being called upon, said he indorsed what the president said in relation to the formation of a . lecture bureau, and would do all in his power to further it. For the past fourteen years he had given the union every encouragement, and he con- sidered its work one of the chief works in which he engaged. He would give little for a parish that was not able to support a union of total abstainers. He wished the- chief officers, especially the secretary and treasurer, to be near himself, as he wished to have access to the books, so as to see how the various unions were reporting and succeeding. Let all the work they did be for the general good of the union, and let these interests be above private and local prejudices. Have your best men as officers, for with a live president and secretary any union must succeed. He was sorry to see so great a Jack of interest in temperance in Southern Minnesota, but of course he excepted Winona, Olmsted and some other counties, and he thought they would do good if they took a walk into Southern Minnesota next year. He was proud of the union and of the zeal of the delegates, i Father McGolrick made a few remarks, but excused himself, as he would speak again in the evening. He, however, made a bid for the election of the principal offi- cers from Minneapolis, as he considered that they would be near Bishop Ireland. Father Murphy, being called upon, said he was pleased to meet such a large and respectable number of members of the union and hoped, they would receive such treat- ment in Stillwater from the friends as to take home with them only pleasant recol- lections. . The reports from the j secretary and treas- urer were not ready, but will be presented at this morning's session. The award of merit was not presented, as several of the pastors. had not handed in their reports. A committee offive was appointed to re- port upon the establishment of lecture bu- reaus. The session then adjourned until this morning at 9 o'clock. '\u25a0 \u0084 THE PARADE. \. ,'. ' : It was intended that the various unions would parade at 7 o'clock, but it was some thirty minutes past when ,the Stillwater unions arrived at the starting point There were some 700 in line, and they made a most creditable appearance. The hand- some uniforms of the Crusaders, the showy badges of the Father Mathew and other so- cieties and the neat suits of the Cadets were ' favorably commented on, while the delegates to, the convention,' with the handsome banners of their re- spective home organizations proudly float- ing aloft, presented an attractive appear- ance. There were two brass bands and two drum corps, and they played with energy. It was expected that many more unions would have been present, only the Minne- apolis union coming by special train. M. W. Murray as chief marshal, and P. E. Barker, Sr., as assistant, kept the proces- sion in order. ' The Crusaders of Stillwater, 45 strong, John F. Burke, president, headed the procession, followed by the Father Mathew, 25, P. E. Burke, -. Sr., president These were. followed by the Crusaders, Minneapolis, 50 strong, J. P. Courtney, president; St. Anthony Cru- saders, 40, M. Lynett, president; St. Anthony's of Padua, 70, T. M. Bohan, president; the St. Joseph cadets, Minne- apolis, 44," John Wolsey, president; Father Mathew of Immaculate Conception church, 30, D. M. Gurdon, president, while the Stillwater cadets, with their excellent drum corps, 100 strong, William Foran president, took up the rear, and in front of them were 200 delegates. Several, carriages fol- lowed. The line of march was taken as published in the Globe several days ago. :.yjy ; • literary AND musical. The Grand opera house was filled in the evening with the principal citizens and visitors, and a rare treat was presented. The county president, Thomas Nolan, pre- sided, and made a few remarks in opening. The program was a good one, but as it be- gan at a late hour, it had to be curtailed. The urogram was opened with an overture by the Philharmonic club. Judge McCluer. made the address of welcome, which was a happy effort, and the quartet, consisting of Mrs. R. S.Davis, Miss Dexter and Messrs. Haskell and Masterman, gave a song. Bishop Ireland followed with one of his characteristic addresses, which was loudly applauded. The Philharmonic," consisting of Miss Welch, Mrs. Van Waters, Dr. Van Waters and Prof. Hague, gave an instrumental se- lection. Then followed addresses by T. D. O'Brien and Father McGolrick, which were most appropriate, but had to be short- ened owing to the lateness of the hour, as were the addresses by Father McDonald and Mr. J. R. Corrigan. The quartet gave a couple of songs, and after Father Murphy gave a short address they sang good night. Alter | the entertainment i was concluded a large number repaired to Music hall, where the ladies provided any .amount of/ ice cream, strawberries and cake, and a pleas- ant time was spent: The day throughout was successful in every particular, arid the citizens of Stillwater did themselves honor in the way they entertained their visitors. .*':'"} \u25a0 '' k ' - •' ' ". .Vy.y City Council. At the meeting of the city council on Tuesday evening all < the members were present : The following • important com- munication was received from Mayor Mur- dock: . y ;\u25a0' •'\u25a0 - The very heavy damage2to individuals arid to the" city by*the two unusual showers which have just occurred, will of course de- mand and receive your serious and immedi- ate attention. Whoever 'may be responsi- hie ; for the damage which has occurred, the city must do all in its' power to guard against similar disaster in the future. ; .- 1 may be mistaken in -my information and understanding -of I the chief cause of, these disasters, but : as I -understand it, ; the damages are directly due g to t the •defective and ' . improper arrangement lof the water, company ;in providing . for conveying . Iho water of ; McKusick 'ravine , under. Third street,' J: In these '\u25a0, two •' showers , there ; was no, difficulty in h taking care .of the water, which naturally came down Myrtle street, until -./McKusick's ;' ravine j became' choked up and the water swept \ across to ' Myrtle street It came with a volume and power that could not be .opposed ; or resisted. -; I am of opinion that the city must insist that the water company shall take measures to confine the McKusick I creek to its proper channel, and provide an ample and suitable y outlet of the same so as Vto i pass the water ' : ; . ; under ( Third street in ;- its •:. natural channel:, y It seems to me the trouble has been ; . occa- '- sioned by filling the natural channel up to ' too high- a - level ; west of Third >; street. When it was down at a proper depth below < the grade of Third street . it never did and never could escape from", its natural chan- -\u25a0 nel. Then the well-hole is too small i and .- with a grating over, it, it immediately be- comes choked up by debris in a heavy shower. | I think the well-hole should be made large! and the "top of it brought lower. Then the 3 channel of the creek should be dug out and made lower for a block .or more, and walla either of i stone or '.timber constructed on each side so as to make a broad flume ol y ample capacity, with the walls high enough to keep the water in its .channel. ." The new grade of Myrtle \ street west of Fifth street will | be utterly valueless unless | protected as fast as completed by the imme- diate^construction of y substantial stone gut- ters of •"\u25a0\u25a0" ample capacity. Without /that it . will be worse than useless, because it will not only wash away but will send the sand down to the business part of the city with all' the damage resulting. - j It has' of ten ; ' been suggested by some of . our practical men that a street made con- cave \ from ; curbstone >to curbstone and properly • paved S would; be the best for a street with steep grade and carrying a large volume of water in heavy rains. 'Expert- • ence \ elsewhere has approved this method, , and I would suggest that Myrtle is the best street to try this experiment - .on!-" 7 ; We might first take the lower 'section of -.'tho street, say from Third street to Lake, and make a thorough jjob of it. :"; Certainly the damage resulting from such sltowers as these would pay for a great deal of paving." The council took action upon the sugges- tions iii the mayor's communication, . and President Bronson and Aid. Covill and Kiltz were appointed to take action at once on the McKusick creek matter, and bids were. asked for the construction \u25a0of the gutter. y-iy v John Kenny was elected toll collector at the bridge at a salary of 5i, 300 per annum, he to supply all assistance, and anything else required for the running of the bridge. The tenders' for sidewalks were not opened, but there will be a special meeting on next Tuesday evening for business. Notes About Town. Senator Sabin was not as well yesterdaj as the previous day.

The good work ofremoving the flood de bris goes on successfully, yesterday showing a great improvement in the streets. T. H. Warren finds that his washout will cost him over $500. Others also find that their losses are increasing instead of diminishing. -At the District court yesterday, before Judge McCluer, the case of George Wood- ward against the town of Cottage Grove, for taking gravel from his land for road purposes, the jury gave a verdict in favor of plaintiff for 25 cents. He sued for S5OO. but as it was proved that only about the fiftieth part of an acre was taken, the jury gave what they considered its full value. P. M. Ladd against J. R. M. Gaskell was tried. Dr. Gaskell rented a house from Ladd in Minneapolis, and re- mained in it six months and then left, pay- ing for the time he occupied it. Ladd sued for the balance of the year, but the jury gave a verdict for the defendant. There was no afternoon session of court, the legal lights being in St. Paul arguing scaling matters. — - — * Wisconsin Railway & Navigation Company. Special to the Globe.

Deveney, a prominent physician of 2542 Indiana ave- nue, has been sued by Miss Ezrean Fuller for §50,000. Miss Fuller is a pretty nine- | teen-year-old brunette.

Springfield, 111., June 17.—The ad- vance sheets of a report upon the corn crop \u25a0: of Illinois, soon to be issued by the depart- ment 'of agriculture, shows: that the area planted in corn is ; much larger than last year, especially in wheat sections. Insects have damaged the' growing corn seriously in many portions of the state, and the cold, dry season has been 'unfavorable for plant- ing; and growth. Corn In the northern division of the state is usually nearly half that of the entire corn area of the state, and - in 1884 exceeded three million acres. . The average condition of the growing crop June 1 1 was 84 per cent, against ,9S last t year. - There has been an Increase of \l2 per . cent, in the corn area of the central division, as compared "with lBB4,; ."when! 2,900,000 acre* were planted.
