How Some People Allow a Word,
Against Which They Have a Preju.
dice, to Stand in the Way of Their
Own Well-B e1ng.
The old lady who would not allow her son
to have fiddle, but was willing he should
have violin. is a fair example Of the foolish
prejudice which very many people have
refuse to take Chloride Of Sodium, but would
use salt, which is the same thing. Now 1t is
this class of people who usually have deep
prejudice against the words alcohol or
whisky. They know that somebody has
abused the use of these articles and hence
they denounce them altogether, in spite of
the fact that the best scientists and the lead
ing physicians of the present day advocate
and use them constantly.
Prof. AustinFlint of Bellevue (New York;
College, says: 1.-THE judiclous use of aico-
holic timulants is one of the striking char
acteristics of progress in the practice of med
icine during the last half century,
Prof. Joseph Parrish, the distinguished
author, says: I'VE know that alcohol will
steady the heart, slow the pulse, warm the
skin, calm excitement, and we ought to
use it,"
Prof. NJ. G. Greeneaf, the well-known
author, says: IAN intelligent prehension
of the action of alcohol and whisky, will
have a greater influence in promoting tenn
perance than adhesion to dogma"
Such high scientific authorities show that
pure whisky should be used as household
remedy. No father or mother need hesitate
for moment to administer Dufy's Pure
Malt Whisky to the children, and it is simply
bigotry to allow the word whisky, which is
the name of this medicine, to stand in the
way of the wonderful benefits to be derived
from its use. II should be remembered, how
ever, that these effects are only TO be secured
by the use of pure medicinal whisky like
Duffy's, and care should be taken to use no
other.

THE BANQUET.
An Event Which FittingIy Closed
the Work of the Convention.

A convention auspiciously opened
and carried on with much life and spirit
was brought to grand close last night
by banquet in the magnificent dining
hall of the West hotel. Celebrated as is
this hall for elaborate spreads and sur
passing social events, never before in
its history did it make such an offering;
and, in many respects, the company
present was more distinguished than
any that has ever been seated at feast
in Minneapolis. There were there rep
resentatives of more millions of dol
lars than any company perhaps, which
has before been cOngregated for
an evening of formal social
enjoyment. Those who occupied places
at the banquet tables were the presi-
dents and high officials of the street rail-
way companies of the United States and
Canada body of men in whom may
be found the embodiment of original
energy and push. Men who have
built up great Industries for themselves
and in many cases have amaSsed enOr-
nous fortunes by their own ability
as shreWd managers and financierS.
With all they were party of gentle
men. No more genteel a gathering
could be cOngregated together that the
convention of street railway magnates
who dined at the West hotel last night.
at a little after s o'clock the party
formed in the parlors and corridors to
pass into the banquet hall. The new
president of the convention, Thomas
Lowry, of Minneapolis, and Arch
Bishop Ireland, of st. Paul. headed
the procession. Mayor Babb, President
Kerper and other distinguished guests
followed, and after them came the main
body of the convention with few in
vited guests from the Twin Cities, max
ing in ALA company of 200 distinguished
people.
The banquet hall which they entered
was one of surprising beauty. Men

dominion for the day, and under his di-

rection the great room had been con-
verted into garden of palms and flow
ers. At the foot of the hall, midway be-
tween floor and ceiling, was arranged
a bank of palms and plants oyertrailed
with SmilaX and ivy, and Illuminated
with a circle of rich-cOlored electric
lights. The cabinets on either side were
surmOunted with illuminated bouquets.
Rows of palms waved their broad
leaves on either side of the hall,
while trailing vines tremendously
blend the whole decoration into
continuous bower of beauty.
The banquet board was brilliant in its
sparkling beauty. Twelve enormous
bouquets of dainty flowers added to the
artistic completeness of the array OF
fruit and designs of the pastry artist.
Of these at the head of the table stood
two models of street cars in white on
vari-cOiOred pedestalS. In the ante
room through which the procession
passed on entering the hall was de-
sign on which the pastry artist had Law
iShed his art. 1t was of the old suS-
pension bridge, bearing on its center
an open car. Beside this stood an illu-
minated bouquet of roses, and the en-
trance was abaze with cOlored lights
shining out through trailing vines. In
this bower sat DanZ's famous musicians
to add their music to the pleasures of
the feast.
When the party had passed in at the
head of the table was President Kerper
and lady. To his right were Thomas
Lowry. Mayor Babb and A. j. Blethen;
to his left Archbishop Ireland, A. j.
Blethen and Rev. Father Nugent, of
Liverpool. The high officials of the
convention with their ladies filled the
remaining space.
The banquet itself was the most
elaborate ever served in Minneapolis,
and of course that means ever served III
the Northwest. 1t was, too, the grand
est of all the eight banquets which the
convention has from year to year spread
out In various prominent cities of the
United States. Members who attended
all of them expressed themselves that
no preceding event equaled the one en-
jOyed at the West hotel last night. The
scene of the feast. with the flock OF
white-clOthed walters passing in and
out through the flower-enShrined en-
trance, called up in the mind the tales
of Oriental splendor. Grace was offered
by Rev. Father Nugent. of Liverpool.
Following were the invited guests
from Minneapolis and st. Paul;

BEARING DOWN HARD.
More Arrests and New Suits
Against the Collection Agency.

Apparently the trouble through the
assignment Of the Northwestern COllec-
ton, Loan and Trust association has
just commenced for its officers. In the
district court yesterday. John G. Miller
& Co. commenced civil suit to recover
1,097, which it is claimed the aSSOcia-
tion had collected and appropriated to
its own use. Late in the afternoon w.
J. Ballard, l.. Bostwick and l.. w.
Pierce, the officers of the defunct Or
ganization, were again arrested on war
rants sworn out by Charles Heiser and
Fred Bergner & Co., on the charge OF
embeZzlement. Mr.. Heiser states in his
complaint that the association collected
claims for him amounting to S460.5l
and he has never received the money,
and Berger & Co. have claim against
the association for 1885. They were
arraigned in the municipal court and
waived the reading of the complaints
and gave bail in the sum of 5000 each
for their appearance on Oct. %. 1t is
understood that several more COM
plants will be made against the defend,
ants.
A gentleman who is familiar with the
associations affairs says the suits will
be fruitless so far as the money is con-
cerned, as the company is practically
bankrupt and can pay nothing.

that when one did get promotion Sup
