In the year of 1922 there came to David
County a man calling himself Peter Stewart
Ney, who possessed fine military bearing,
had some means, and gave such evidences
of education as to enable him to open and
carry on a school for boys during space of
over twenty years
He spoke French well, English brokenIy,
was accomplished and skilled in the use of
the sword and all warlike weapons, and his
ability as teacher has rarely been equaled
in these parts. He commanded the respect
and gained the love of his pupils to an emf
nent degree. A long list of men noted as
jurists and scholars, as soldiers and states
men, could be given who were taught by this
man, about whose life and manners there
was enough mystery to justify many report
He lived in close intercourse with the peo-
pie of the neighboorhood OF Mocksvilic for
twenty-five years; only once when sober and
cool did he claim to be other than what he
appeared: on this occasion, overcome BIZ the
kindness of Mr.. Houston. with whom he had
lived, who tried to console him during his
deep distress on the accession OF Louis Philip
pc to the throne of France in 1880, ne con-
fessed that be was In truth what many firm
II believed-that eminent parsonage, Mar

ing to the backvoods OF North Carolina that

The bank has for period of a quarter OF a
century had career of uninterrupted pros
perity. 1t has weathered every financial
crisis, and while many of the leading banks
of the country and of the world have gone
down in times of panic, thus tending to
create distrust in regard to the stability OF all
others. there never has been
moment when a single creditor
OF the First National Bank of st. Paul had
the least fear in regard to its stability. These
facts speak volumes in praise. OF those by
whom its affairs have been managed during
the past twenty-five years. Its present pres
ident, Mr.. II. P. Upham, has been connect
ed with the bank for twenty-one years, or
ever since its organization under the ma
tional banking law, as one of its officers,
making his way from bookkeeper through all
the different offices to his present proud and
honorable position as president of the Oldest
state of Minnesota, is justly proud of her
oldest bank, and one and all have unfalter-
ing faith that for generations to come the old
First National will stand as a model for 9TH
erS to emulate.

CORNER JACKSON AND FOURTH STREETS.
This financial Institution combines in an
eminent degree the elements of stability and
been identified with the leading merchants
and financers of the city, and to write the
history of the bank would be to write the
monetary history of st, Paul. The original
banking house was established in 1860, and
in 1870 the three gentlemen now at the head
of the institution became partners, and it
was known as Dawson's bank, Mr.. Dawson
having been one Of the original founders.
The Bank of Minnesota Was organized and
incorporated November l, 1882, with the
present officers, viz: William Dawson, pres
ident; R. A. Smith, vice president; Albert
Scheffer, cashier, and Herman Scheffer, as
sstant cashier 1t has a capital of 100000
and a surplus of S3S, 900.
The bank is located in the elegant Gilfillan
block at the corner of jackson and Fourth
streets, in the very heart of the business sec
ton of the city, and it has most conven-
iently arranged rooms for the transaction of
its constantly increasing business. The long
and faithful services of its officers
has been one of the chief causes
of the great success of the bank
and it would be difficult to find in the north
west three men more fully conversant with
the financial and mercantile capacities and
resources of the great region of which St.
Paul is the pivot and center. Through the

prominent in the financial affairs of the new
country, until it has the enviable reputation
of being one of the most reliable and highly
esteemed banks in the whole country. 1t
numbers among its depositors many of the
vicinity and has also large number of bank
and mercantile correspondents whose bust
ness it transacts. The business of this bank
extends throughout the vast territory reached
by st. Paul iobbers, and it has correspon-
dents among all the banks that can possibly
be of benefit and use to the commercial
economy Of its hosts of customers.
The banking room which is remarkably
light, airy and pleasant, is handsomely and
richly fitted with black walnut fixtures of
elaborate design, and is provided with the
most approved Are and burglar proof safes,
as well as all conveniences for the transac-
ton of a banking business, the apartments
and their arrangement being special
ly designed to secure the ut
most convenience and safety, as well as
the most complete harmony of effect. With
an affable and expert corps of assistants to
aid in its energetic management the Bank of
Minnesota merits its remarkable success, and
is justly classed as one of the soundest finan-
cial institutions in the entire country.

MERCHANTS NATIONAL BANK.

CORNER THIRD AND JACKSON STREETS.
This substantial financial institution was
founded in 1872, and for number of years
occupied limited quarters on Third street at
the corner of Minnesota. With the growth
OF the country its business increased so
rapidly that it was forced to seek much
larger apartments, and now it is located in
as elegant and convenient rooms as are to
be found in the land. The rooms are upon
the first floor of the handsome Fire 81 Marine
Insurance building, and are very easy OF ac-
cess, and cheerful. Somewhat irregular in
form, the space devoted to the business of
the bank averages fifty feet in width by one
hundred in depth, and the fittings are heavy,
rich and chaste, being constructed Of solid
black walnut.
The bank has capital of 81 ZOO, 900, with
surplus of $500, 900, and the standing of
the Institution is second to none in the
United States. The present officers are as
follows: President, W. R. Merriam; vice
president, c. H. Bigelow; cashier. F. A. Sey-
mour; assistant cashier, George G..
Power; board of directors, Maurice
Auerbach, D. R. Noyes, E. N. Saunders, B.
Beaupre, John T. Averil, j. H. Bishop, G. H.
Bigelow, A. B. Stickney, E. F. Drake, A. H.
Wilder, John L. Merriam, W. S. Culbertson
L. d. Hodge, w. R. Merriam, F. A. Sey-
mour.
The business of the hank is conducted in
the most careful, earnest and prompt man
ner, the most of the clerks having grown up
with the institution, and the officers being
men who fully know the community they
have transactions with. The bank has cor
respondents in nearly every town in Mime
sofa, Dakota, northern Iowa, northwest Wis
consin, Montana, Wyoming, WashiDgt
territory, Oregon and Manitoba.

WINES AND LIQUORS.

1t is difficult for person coming from the
older settled portion of the country to be-
lieve that they can obtain in st. Paul as old,
pure, and it may be added costly wines and
liquors as they can in any city in America,
yet such is the fact. There are wine cellars
in St. Paul stocked with the
finest wines of Europe and
America A number of the dealers are
heavy importers of foreign wines and liquors,
aud nearly all of them carry very heavy
stocks of WHISTLES in bond. The travelling
agents of these houses can be found on every
public conveyance from st. Pault to the Rock
les. This trade is one of the most important
in st. Paul, requiring many hundreds Of
thousands of dollars to handle. The aggre-
gate sales of the wholesale houses for the six
months ending June 80, reached the sum of
81, 133, 600. This would indicate that the
people of the northwest do not go thirsty.

4 Very Old Tenor.

The once renowned tenor Tamberlik has
been recently engaged upon concert tour
in Russia, and notwithstanding his voice has
greatly deteriorated, for he is between sixty
and seventy years Of aye, with considerable
success. Everywhere he has had large and
enthusiastic audiences, and every piece he
has sung has been vociferously encorcd.
Four concerts which he gave at st. Peters
burg are said to have brought him In nearly
SIS, coo. As he was rich when he retired
from the stage, his unexpected and moment
ary return to public lie has come upon his
old admirers as a surprise. Tanberlik thinks
the time will come when great opera singers,
like great ballet dancers, will no longer be
required, for much of what used to be sung
upon the lyric stage is now spoken in the
form Of recitative.

MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS.

One would hardly suppose that this branch
of business has assumed the proportions and
the Importance it has in st. Paul. There are
houses in this city equal to any in the east,
where can be obtained any kind of a
musical instrument, from jews harp to
Grand piano, and at prices more favorable
than in the east. While it is true to some
extent that the early settlers of new country
have but little time, and perhaps less incli-
nation to''court the muses." yet there are
many families and persons of refinement and
culture who are lovers Of music, and home
would not be home for them if piano or
some other musical in strument did not adorn
their parlors or rooms. 1t would hardly be
supposed the sales of these instruments for
the six months ending June 30, reached the
sum of 1896, $50, but such is the fact.

Iished ones Immediately find their way to
IS sale to affirm that by far
Inc greatest majority of letters that have
been written, the accounts that have been
kept and the books and newspapers that
have been published, in this region for the
sttwenty years havesbeen upon stock sup
plled by this pioneer house. The smallest
newspaper with a diminutiye job-oflice at
tached sends its modest orders, and the great
journals with their circulations among
the tens of thousands, and immense con-
sumption of stationery calls upon the sold
rehable," all equally certain that they will
be treated literally, promptly and honestly.
The store now occupied by the concern is
so x l25 feet and three floors of this size are
constantly kept full of goods for which the
demand is constant, while an indefinite
amount of stock is stored or in process of
manufacture at the mills in Minneapolis.
The character of the stock handled by this
house is too well known to require enumera-
ton here, hence it must suffice TO state in a
general way that it contains staple
and fancy stationery of all kinds,
printers supplies, complete
line of fiat papers, bill heads, wrapping
manila and building papers, twines, holiday
goods, albums, toy and Juvenile books, etc.
They are also northwestern agents for the
celebrated "Whitney'' children's carriages
which rank all others in the market. Twenty
five men are employed in the house which is
by far the largest in the growing northwest,
doing business fast approaching to mil
lion dollars annually. This edition of the
GLOBE is printed on paper furnished by this
house.

NO. 10, WEST THIRD STREET.
Probably there is not a name more ia
miliar to the people of the northwest than
that of George Benz. He is now a man in
the full vigor of middle aged manhood. He
came to st. Paul an unknown boy, but he
had within him the elements out of which
successful business men are made and in d
few years he has grown up from comparative
poverty to become the head of a wholesale
house scarcely second to any between the
great lakes, and the Rocky mountains. The
firm of Geo. Benz q company, the great st.
Paul wholesale importers and dealers in
wines, liquors, etc, whose place OF business
is at number 40, West Third street, has al
most an international reputation as their
business in buying and selling is not con-
fined to the American continent alone but
reaches out to the banks of the classic Rhine
In Germany, the sunny plains of France
and the vine clad hills of Spain, and
Portugal, with all of which countries they
have business relations. 1t is seldom that a
week passes without bringing to their i'm
mense wholesale house an invoice of wines,
brandies, ETC., from the countries named
above, not to mention their purchase of the
choicest WHISTLES from Kentucky-the most
finely favored wines from California and
bottled goods, such as ale, porter, imported
French cordials, etc, from all parts of the
United States and Europe. The stock this firm
carries is probably fully as large as that of
any one wholesale house in Chicago or any
other city outside of New York Mr. Benz
is native Of Germany, and makes frequent
visits to the ''Faderland' during which he
combines business with the pleasure of meet
ing his relatives and associates of his boyhood
days. lie visits in person the houses with
which he deals and makes his
purchases and contracts on the spot, and
thus gives the customers of the firm the adj
vantage of his long experience in the bust
ness, in the quality of the wines and liquors
purchased. Being heavy purchasers they
are enabled to buy superior article at re-
duced rates, and hence can afford to SELL and
do sell, a better article at lower rates than
dealers can obtain the same in New York or
any other city in America. The firm is com
posed of George Benz, John Haggenmiller
and VIM Hachmann, each one of whom is
thoroughly experienced in the business; are
gentlemen both in business and private life,
with whom it is pleasure to have business
relations.

NO. 30 EAST THIRD STREET.
The house of Nathan Ford enjoys a repu-
tation for reliability, probity and liberal deal
ing well earned and well supported. The
word of Mr.. Ford is equivalent to a bond,
and any representations made in this house
may be relied upon in every particular. He
makes the famous "Knabe'' pianos, his lead
ing instrument, and is prepared to supply
them in all styles, square, upright and grand.
For volume of tone, good construction, ex-
cellence of workmanship, perfection of ac-
ton and delicious quality of tone, they are
unexcellcd. He also carries the popular
Hazelton, the Fischer, aud the Marshall g.
Wendell pianos, and the famous Clough IL
Warren reed organs for parlor or church.
Mr.. Ford's warerooms are now so much
crowded that he is offering special induce
ments during this month, July, to make
room for his Fall stock. Special attention is
given to filing orders BY mail, and satisfac-
ton is guaranteed or the goods may be re-
turned at the expense of the house.
