A Discovery Of Antiquarian Interest.

A discovery Of great antiquarian in
1erest was made in Aberdeen, Scotland,
not long since by number of laborers
..xcavating in Ross court, one of the old
EST parts of the city. Three feet under
rhe surface the laborers came upon a
large bronze urn filled to the brim with
silver money. The number of coins was
about $1,000, and they are in excellent
preservation. They are all English
money of the reigns of Edward |. and
Edward H., and are supposed by anti
.quaries to have been part of the booty
secured during one of the raids into
England during the thirteenth century.

The ST. Paul Trust Company.

The aims and objects of Trust company
are not very thoroughly understood by the
multitude. nor can they be more than gem
orally indicated in a newspaper article,
but it may be said in general terms that 1t
proposes to act as the financial agent OF IN
dividuals and of other corporations. to safely
keep or invest money or securities. to act
as executor of estates, as receiver in bank
ruptcy matters. as the guardian or trustee
of minors or of non c0mpOs persons. or as
attorney; in fact. in any case where the en-
plovment of one is desirable or necessary.
The question will occur to many. why is
il better to employ a corporation than an in
divdual i'll any Of the capacities above
mentioned" but the answer will be obvious
upon little reflection. In the first place,
the corporation never dieS-dS the indlvid-
ua is liable to do at any time-and.
therefore. in no case can the ne
ceSSity arise for selecting another
agent because death prevented the
first from performing in whole or i'll part
what was expected of him. This is an i'm
pOrtant consideration. In the case Of
an executor to a will, for example,
the teStator seeks the services of some friend
in whom he has full confidence and who
may be entirely worthy of it. but he cannot
/ be certain that the friend selected will live
to even enter upon the discharge of his
trust. or by whom he will be succeeded.
All interests, it is true. cannot be taken in
charge by the Trust company, but such as
from their nature can be are. as a rule. far
safer with it than in the hands
of any individual. individuals are
not professional executors, guardians,
receivers, etc. They have their own or
binary avocations and interests to occupy
their. attention and with the best Intentions
WIZ Sometimes neglect the unusual duties
of the trust that has probably been I'M
willingly accepted; with the Trust company,
however, all such matters are a part of reg
ulsr routine business aud are attended to
accordingly.
Again, the Trust company is beyond any
question responsible; it is the creature of
statutory enactment. and the statute pre-
| scribes what amount of capital it must
have; how it must be invested and further
more, places it under the supervision of a
state officer, who. twice year at least,
must personally inspect its books and be
satisfied that its affairs are all in complete
! order.
| The ST. l'aul Trust company has cap
| ital stock of $780, 900, more than one-h half
of which amount has been invested in ap-
proved securities. which have been trans

the first. Their factory in Chicago is one
of the largest and best equipped in the coun-

goods should be purchased by our citizens
when American factories. such as the
Bremner Baking company, can and do
make goods fully equal aud at less prices.
A postal to Mr.. Windrom will insure a
prompt call. A visit to the store will well
repay any one-a more beautiful display of
goods cannot be made and many of the
STYLES are entirely new and made by no
other factory. We trust that they will
meet the encouragement they merit.
Among the biscuit are snow lake, tea
table cream, graham waters. Marie, Evan

and host of others beside the ordinary
soda, butter and oyster crackers. Goods

The John Martin Lumber Company

n
is the pioneer lumber establishment in this
section. and will unquestionably remain a
favorite with contractors, builders and
dealers at home and abroad as long as ii
continues in business. This company handles
the product of its own pineries and saw
mills exclusively. The yards and mills of
the Minneapolis branch are supplied from
the pineries ON the Mississippi; the st. Paul
establishment from pineries reached by the
St. Paul & Duluth railroad.
The lumber from all of these sources is
of superior quality and stands high in the
estimation of contractors and builders every
where.
This house deals chiefly with wholesale
men of the first class, who are scattered
as far north as Winnipeg, as far west as
Helena, Mont. aud as.far south as Omaha,
This is the broad field that it covers in its
transactions and it's trade Is fast extending,
but nevertheless it can always find time to
fill an order for local builder or contractor,
thus affording him an opportunity of pur-
chasing at first hands and saving one or
more intermediate profits.
The sales of the John Martin Lumber
company will approximately aggregate
40, 900, 900 feet per annum. This is such a
representative house as a leading journal
always like to mention.
