THE GLOUE BOOM.The advantage which the enlarged and pro-

jjre^ive Globe offer* to the business public isfully attested by the columns of this issue.kiu-±i«m men advertise where it pays them tomake their announcements, and consequentlythey make a liberal ns*» of the medium affordedby t!.e Globe. The demand this morning uponour space was a surprise (though an agreeableone) even to the sanguine publisher-!, and itcame at bo late an hour that it was impossible tomake \u25a0 twelve page issue. We trust, on futureoccasions, tohave longer notice of the esteem inwhich the Globe is held by thebusiness public, and wo will then beenabled; by Qthe issue of twelve or sixteenpage numbers to meet the demands «if bothbusiness and news. Some (of the interestingBpedattieSjOf the Globe are necessarily curtail-ed this morning, for the reason named. TheGlobe of to-day is, however, a gratifying reflexof the lifeand enterprise of this great and rap-idly advancing city. No city in the UnitedStales is enjoying^ in proportion to its size, anequal decree of prosperity. The future of St.Paul So rabstantially limitless, and the present isimmense. ;\u25a0:•'.

''Arise and be doing,'it is the command of the {almighty; nodreaming of virtue or charity, but actingthem.

Bishop Butler says that "drawing a pic-ture of virtue in one's mind, is so far fromnecessarily or certainly conducive to forma habit of it in him who thus employshimself, that itmay even harden the mindin a contrary course, and render it grad-ually more insensible."

THE SOCIAL WOBLD.

Ina previous issue of the Sunday Globean attempt was made by the society bardto sing in praise of the enchanting pas-sion or malady recognized by mankind atlarge as love, and in order that the loftytheme might not be made to appear odiousthe muse tricked out her offering to thedulcet measures of the lyre. The object inview was to cast some informing light onthe inquiry of a certain young* sprigwho had become entangled in the meshesof the fair syren, and whose patheticepistolary wailcalled for sympathy.

Imagine then, gentle reader, the surpriseoccasioned on receipt of an intended re-buke from this snarling crank, whose es-thetic feelings were all torn up. becauseforsooth, the verse was not pitched to thesonorous march of Alexandrine verse, asif the flame of true poesy does not kindlewith equal warmth at the altar of the lesssounding but more gay and sprightly son-net.The petulant complaint of this superb an-

imalmay best be likened to the ingrati-tude illustrated by the adventure of amoss-backed turtle and a sand-hill crane.The fable runs that on a bright summermorning near the classic banks of WhiteBear lake, a sand-hill crane while indulg-ing in his daily peregrinations chanced tostumble on a hard-shelled Baptist turtle,which had been sunning himself onone ofthe breezy uplands that abound therea-bouts. Now it is a well known fact thathoweverjamiable the qualities of head andheart'of this noble bird he willnever bepersecuted on account of his beau-ty, and when a false stepbrought his long, lonesome limbs in con-tact withthe turtle, the latter lashed hiswings, as it were, and gnashed his teethwith'rage, alleging that no oiie)but a lar.k-legged and ill-mannered goos >\u25a0\u25a0 would havethe gall to disturb the meditations of sucha highly respectable party as the turtle,

saying at the same time many rash andrude things in derision of the intruder'slegs. The next day a small boy mean-dered near the castle of the turtle, andupon coming across the latter he without

iado tossed him into a scrub-oak grove, inIthe meshes of which he became sadlyitangled.

The same morning the meek-heartedami greatly derided crane, while enjoyinghis walk, was attracted to the grove by thecries of some creature in distress, andwhat was his surprise on going thitheiv.tobehold his old enemy."the turtle? who hadbecome fastened in a sapling, and for thelife of him could find no release. There-upon the turtle cried out. on beholdinghe of the majestic legs, '-come thou. mostgentle and comely crane, and withthy longlegs release me from misfortune, or I

j perish."Gentle reader, is it necessary to say that

this was not a Sunday school good littleboy kind of crane,, that he was not even ahypocritical or Mosaic order of crane; thathe was merely a natural sand-hill snipeafter all and that he didn't go to the rescue

! of that crawfishing snapper worth a cent,

but rather on beholding his ungrateful en-emy up a tree ehe played the part of thecold, cruel world and let him hang there

jas a laughing stock of ingratitude. It is

Ionly necessary to add that there are aj great many species of the genus snapper,and that they don't all wear hard shellovercoats'either.

The small boy having throwna summerduster and picnic vest, the late propertyof the chief of this sanctum, into the poet-

j ical hopper, we find produced the follow-iiag distaff on the season, which is regard-ed as being very intense and utter consid-ering the source :Now doth the young man's shirt-front heave

high with joy and pride.As lie leads his winsome lassie through the mazes

of the glide:Soon willthe school-boy tarry as he throws his

books aside,To indulge the sweet illusions of on old-time

\u25a0-n fashion slide;And soon, alas, his papa willuplift on high the

lance,To investigate the padding in young liopcfill's

winter pants.The above touching effusion, while per-

ihaps lacking somewhat the divine afflatusof true poesy, brings vividlyto mind~"thesad, sweet, near approach of hoary headed

1 winter, when coal willbe $I."> or $20 per; ton, when the monster who sells cord woodat £10 willsend you pine slabs and swearthey were maple, when the pine willgo outat midnight and when the baby will cryand you willhave to carry the poor little

j thing, and when your better half will tellj you again and again thai you left its feet

', uncovered and that the poor innocent hasgot its death of damp, and then there

Iwillbe music by the full band and thepicnic willcommence in dead earnest.

The visit was admira-bly conceived and elegantly executed.It was conducted so secretly that the par-ties in interest had not the slightest ideathat the call was intended until theirfriends had formally taken possession ofthe premises. Mr. and Mrs. Diether deeplyappreciated the token of regard.

Wedding Bells.At this season of the year when nature

flames into the gaudy hues of autumn, andwhen the rheumatic bachelor puts on hisheavy wraps and shudders at the approachofcoldnights, cursing a fate that hasdoomed him to a lifeof single blessedness,the lover's thoughts nimbly turn to thesubject of matrimony and to employ astock term the market commences to lookup. The past week has been productf yeofseveral happy events in this line and theprospects for a still larger exhibit aregood.

About as neat and tidy a wedding thathas been scored by Cupidin a long whilewas the marriage of Walter S. Morton, sonof the late senator Morton, of Indiana, andMiss Susie L.Thompson, the sprightly andaccomplished daughter of the late JamesL. Thompson, of this city. The weddingtook place last Wednesday, and a notice-able feature was the entire absence offlurry or display.

The ceremony was performed at St.John the Evangelist church by Rev. E. S.Thomas and Rev. Henry Kittson. Therewere no bridesmaids, no reception, and inshort no attempt at display whatever.Only a few personal friends were present,and after the ceremony the young coupleleft for a tour east.

A Pleasant Sitrpvise.

On Thursday evening last the diningroom of the union depot was the scene of adelightfulsurprise party, the occasion be-ing tosignalize ina becoming manner thedeparture for the East of Mr. W. H.Hurd,who for a longtime has officiated as gen-eralmanager. The affair was gotten upby the employes of the dininghall betweenwhom and Mr. Hurd there has existed theutmost good feeling and friendship, andthe latter was completely taken by sur-prise. On behalf of the employes Mr.Hurd was presented with a magnificentTurkish rocker easy chair, the spokesmanbeing Mr. Sherman, who made a cleverspeech.

The beneficiary expressed his gratitudein eloquent terms and the affair was oneof the most pleasant events of the sea-son. Mr.Hurd on his return willconductthe new restaurant inGilfillan'sblock.

The Ladies' 1Club.This band of musicians was organized

last May and gave rtheir first performancethe 22d of June, at Sherman hall, for thebenefit of the so-called "Coffee HouSe"fund. None that were present at that en-tertainment willsoon forget the admirablechorus work which this body of ladies(about thirty)did. It was a surprise anddelight to everybody. Rehearsals are heldevery Wednesday afternoon at 4 o'clock atroom 6, Odd Fellows' block. Mrs. FrankB. Fanvell is president, Mrs. J. S. Baileyvice-president, Mrs. Georgie Fanning sec-tary and treasurer, Miss Carroll Dean. Li-brarian, and Mr, W. H. Leib conductor.Active rehearsal began last week. A fewgood voices (good readers) could be ad -mittedon each part, though the qsota isalmost full. The first rehearsal was wellattended and enthusiastic, and first-classentertainments are forthcoming.

—Corn opened very i

weak to-day. The effect of yester-day's break was of course demoralizing.Cash and all options opened lower thanyesterday's close, and at the close cash enmonth was }£c lower than it closed at 1o'clock yesterday, October %c lower, No-vember }£c lower and year unchanged.September opened "at about \£c less thanit closed at 1 o'clock yesterday, but Oc-tober and November were fully lc lower.September opened at about }£c less than itclosed at 1o'clock yesterday, but Octoberand November were fully lc lower. Sep-tember .improved J£c, and the other op-tions about lc though the improvementwas attended with frequent chan-ges. It eased off again nearthe close, and finished up quiet at thechanges fromyesterday above noted. Thecause of the stay in the rapidity of thefallis attributed to the damage done by.the recent frosts, and by a floodof coun-try orders which, happily jfor the bulls,nearly all turned to buy. Sellers werescarce and the bulls took advantage ofthese facts. However after the close ofthe board an irregular business was trans-acted at lower figures, and there is a veryweak feeling in the market to-night. Sep-tember ranged at G4@G5 cents, and closedregularly at a medium. October touched62%, but rallied, and after numerous fluc-tuations closed at G2)^c. November wasactive, opening at GOj-^c, at which figurefree trading was done. Itafterwards ral-lied to some extent and closed at 61%c.

IOn the curb where some littlebusiness was

!done it. as predicted, touched GO cents.Year sold down to "^J^c, but closed at .">4c.

IJanuary sold at I<jC,1 <jC, but recovered and

Iclosed at 4yj£c.JMay ranged at :>{Y)_y<t ">2c..j closing at f>l%c.

The losses incident to the great fluctua-tions in corn are producing

A SMALLCKOP OF SUICIDES.

The last heard from is John Halter, awell-to-do German farmer liviuy nearChenoa. this state, who was found dead to-day hanging to a rafter of his house. Thedecline of the corn market broke his heart.He held the crop for last year of his twofarms until this week and then sold.Itis noticeable that a good deal oi' corn

is now coming in that was held all;through the summer months when thearticle was worth 70 to 80 cents, with thethought that it wouldgo stillhigher. Thefarmers

—many of them

—calculated on no

crops this year, and prices out of sight.They appear to have at last given this ideaup. and are willingto take what they canget rather than run the risk of a furtherdecline. Some suburban operators who

jhave trusted to their sharpnessin directing operations, through city bro-

ikeys, have not been quick enough lately.

, and are heavy losers. A wellknown grain1 dealer at Piano, 111., who went short at the|beginning of the firstbreak, got squeezed|by the turn and his margins petered out.iHe has failed for $40,000 to get even.

A moderate speculative business was''

done in wheat. , During most of the day Iprices ruled lower than on yesterday, butjust before the close of the board Septem- jber recovered and cldsed I4C higher. The ilonger options ruled }£ to %c lower thanyesterday, but in the rally recovered and

| sold about %c higher. September sold at i$1.02}£@1.03 and closed at $1.02 1.02%. jOctober sold down to 93%c, but closed at

9414 C. November closed at 94;}4'c, andyear at 93 @OS^c.

Darnbusch places the followingestimateon the world's wheat supply : The Britishcrop, ifreckoned up from the most diver- igent estimates, willbe over 9,000.000 and

'

under 12,000,000 quarters. So to take ;10,000,000 bushels as the probable homesupply of wheat, cannot much mislead thebuyer. Such 10,000,000 bushels willbe of- jfered by the farmer upon terms that the !position of affairs abroad will impose.Home produce must reasonably compete |

with imported produce, and probably it :willbe the English farmer and Englishmiller (who know best the English mar-ket's attractive force) by whom the future !rates of wheat willbe most soundly fixed.Atpresent the farmer shows a readiness inselling his new wheat at about 4."»s per 504lbs. Is this quotation likely to be main- >[

tamed, lowered or advanced? Beyond jhome production an import of 14,000,000quarters may be admitted as necessary. !

Now if 16,000,000 quarters be al-lowed for wants outside of England —and the quantity is a liberal estimate- ithere should still remain 10,000,000 quar- !tera of wheat to replenish the stocks of I"the world. *

Such 10/100,000. if fairly distributed andlodged in tlve millsand granaries of Eu-rope, need not create fullness in a singlemarket. Ten millions as an extra reserveover and above present stocks might sitlightly enough in our farms and as storesin private hands, but when such ten mil-lions are not distributed, but are kept inbulk by the chief holders of America.lndia.and Russia, the wheat trade remains ex-posed to the imminent danger of suchheavy surplus being pressed on the mar-ket.

to two excellent houses yesterday after-noon and last night. The company is oneof the strongest in every respect that hasvisited St. Paul ia years. The vocalistsare especially good, the voices freslu wellcultivated and admirably attuned. Thejokes in the first part are fresh and laugh-able. The clog dancing of Kelly.O'Brien,Lyons and Leary is graceful and equal tothat of any four in the country. The samequartet gave a very mirth-provokingperformance entitled "The Colored Ball."W. Henry Rice

—not Billy,but an equally

accomplished artist in his line—

convulsedthe audience with his burlesque ballads,and was frequently recalled. The re-mainder of the performance was in everyway acceptable. Not tin offensiv e word oraction marred the effect of the entertain-ment, which was in all respects worthy ofthe large patronage it received.

The company willgive a performance inStillwater on Monday evening, and thencego to Minneapolis for Tuesday and Wed-nesday evenings and a Wednesday mat-inee, returning to St. Paul on Thursdayevening. when a crowded house may beexpected.

MALICIOUS FALBEHGOD,

Relative to the Changes in the ManitobaOfficials—President HillDenooacm theXJara Vigorously—No Trnth in the Re-ported Displacement of Mr.Manrrl.Yesterday morning a thoroughly unreli-

able morning paper gathered up all theodds and ends of the wildand false storiesthat have been set afloatinSt. Paul daringthe past week or two and put them to-gether in the shape of a specialdispatch, and dating the bunch of false-hoods at Chicago, published the same. Thebogus dispatch was in substance a string-ofmalicious falsehoods, set afloat and thenpublished as a special (to conceal the au-thorship) for the purpose of injuring agentleman connected withthe St. Paul AManitoba road. The sub&tance of the string-of falsehoods is that Mr. A.L.Mohler is to-be general freight agent of the St. Paul &Manitoba road, while Mr. W. S. Alexanderis tobe promoted to the position of trafficmanager of the same, that Mr. A.H. Bodeis to be assistant to the president andcontroller of the St. Paul &Manitoba road.The bogus dispatch still further statedthat these changes and some others weremade by Mr.Hill, president of the road,whileGeneral Manager Manvel was absentinthe east and without the latter' s knowl-edge. The reason given fo* these changesis one of the most unblushing, insulting,and reckless specimens of downright falsi-fying ever offered for a misrepresenta-tion. The substance of this falsehoodis that Mr. Manvel allowed Gen. Haupt tosecure an important advantage tn a cer-tain matter that was pending between theSt. Paul & Manitoba and the NorthernPacific roads.

Of course, this fictitious dispatch, whenread by the people of St. Paul^ set th©friends of Mr. Manvel to wondering asto what it all meant, and a goodmany of them called at thegeneral officer of the St. Paul and Mani-toba road to learn something about thestatement. Mr. Hill the president ofthe road declared them to be fai^e andmalicious and calculated to make trouble.So far as Mr.Manvel is concerned, the bo-gus dispatch was peculiarly inju-rious and unjust. Mr. Manvel,enjoy? the full confidenceof the board of directors and of the presi-dent of the road, and is to d«y in the easttransacting business for the board that hecould not attend to ifthere was any doubtinthe minds of the directors in regard toMr. Manvel. The idea of Mr. Manvelleaving the road is one that has neverbeen entertained by Mr.Hillor any of thedirectors, and what is more, he is not go-ing to be superseded or removed* Mr.Hill was quite indignant in regard to thepublication, and did not hesitate to de-nounce itin strong terms as a pure fabri-cation. He said the business of the roadwas increasing very rapidly, and it wasnecessary to increase the force of activeand reliable men from time to time asthe service required. The terms heused were unmistakable. He declaredover and over again that Mr. Manvel hadthe unbounded confidence of the board ofdirectors and the president of the road,and that he fully deserved that confidence.

In regard to the alleged advantagegained by the Northern Pacific over theSt. Paul &Manitoba, Mr.Hillsaid therewas no truth in it. No such, advan-tage had been gained, and there was noopportunity for any snch to begained, as all the negotiations that haveoccurred between these two roads had re-sulted satisfactorily to both and therewas no falling out of any description be-tween the two. Mr. Hill regarded thefalse statement made in the bogus special(concocted in St. Paul) as most unfortu-nate and unjust toward Mr.Manvel, andwholly without any foundation whatever,especially as Mr.Manvel is far away in theeast, where he willremain for some timeyet.

Mention was made in the Gl>obe some timeago of Charles Isaacson, the great sleeper, whohas been in the city hospital for the last fivemonths, and lias been asleep almost constantlyduring that time. To-day the patient was takenout for exercise by the physician in charge.The doctor having occasion to stop at a store onMain street the buggy was soon surrounded bya crowd, all anxious to have a look at the sleep-er, who sat perfectly still, unconscious of thesurroundings, his expressionless eyes wide open.The crowd increased so rapidly that the chief ofpolice was compelled to clear the sidewalk.:.
