TWO BUSINESS CHANGES.
w. B. Folds, of Folds & Griffith,
and SeymOur. Curtis a. Co, Sell

w. B. Folds, of Folds & Griffith,
and Seymour, Curtis Il Co. Sell
Out.
A telegram from New York announces
that w. B. Folds, of the firm OF Folds &
Griffith, the big carpet firm in the Syn
dicate block, had sold his interest in the
business to Eastern parties. Moth
ing was known about the mat
ter at the store, and as Mr..
Folds is in New York, and Mr.. Griffith
is also out of the city, the report could
not be confirmed last evening. 1t is
known, however, that for some days
past negotiations for such sale have
been in progress, but yesterday morn
ing letter was received by friend of
MIR. Folds from that gentlemen. in
which it was stated that the deal had
fallen through.
We have this day sold our entire stock
of merchandise to Messrs. S. E. Olson
u Co.
The very sudden death of Mr.. Sey-
mour's father makes it imperative that
he remain permanently in Cleveland,
o. We therefore decided to close our
business and partnership affairs. Mr..
Curtis will pay all bills and collect ac-
counts due the firm.
SEYMOUR Il CURTIS.
Feb. IA, 1889.
The above announcement. which APP
peared in the papers yesterday, caused
more or less surprise in business circles,
and was the subject of considerable dis
cussion during the day. Just swhat
amount was paid for the stock remains
mystery, as none of the parties inter-
ested would say much about the matter
further than to declare that everything
was all satisfactory. 1t is generally UNI
derstood that Mr.. Olson paid certain
per cent on the dollar for the stock,
which. it is said, will invoice about s75,-
600. Mr.. Ingram, Mr.. Gison's purchas-
ing agent, will arrive in Minneapolis in
few days to make the invoice. The
goods will probably be removed to Mr..
Olson's store, on lower Nicollet avenue.

A GOOD OUTPUT.
More Flour Made Than Any Week
Since November.

The Northwestern Miller, in its issue
Of yesterday said: There were thir-
teen mills which ground flour last week,
and they got out the largest output
since November, though under 100,-
600 barrels. The aggregate pro-
duction for the week lending
Feb. 81 was 9O,4s0 barrels-aver-
aging $1,000 barrels daily-against TO-
500 barrels the previous week, and 49,
100 barrels for the corresponding time
in 1888. The increase was largely due
to 2,5OO-barrel mill being placed in the
operative list with steam power, while
several other mills of the same class
added to their product some. the gain
in the aggregate being quite material.
There were twelve mills in operation
to-day, and, as they are enjoying a
pretty fair water power, the weeks out
put gives promise of equaling that of a
week ago. They were making at the
rate of 1900 barrels daily, but all did
not start up Monday morning. The
higher wheat markets have stimulated
the -four trade to considerable extent,
and up to last evening there had been
pretty heavy sales.

SEEN IN MINNEAPOLIS.
"Gen." Ward Reported in tn
Flour City a Short Time Since.

Gen" Ward Reported in the
Flour City Short Time Since.
The report that "Gen." A. B. Ward,
the gentleman who left Grand Forks
under a cloud, had doubled on his trail
after going to Winnipeg, and came back
over the Canadian Pacific to Crookston
the next morning, is probably correct,
as GLOBE representative, who knew
Ward we'll at Grand Forks, is certain
that he saw him coming into Minneap-
oils on the Milwaukee short line train,
which left st. Panl at o'clock.
The general had his beard shaved off,
and wore only small side whiskers,
which he had dyed red. He wore new
pantaloons, a black astrachan turban,
and a black chinchilla overcoat, trimmed
with astrachan, such a coat as was re-
ported missing at the same time that
the general" left Grand Forks. The
police were furnished with this descrip-
ton, but as no instructions for his ar
rest have been received it is not prob
able that any great effort will be made
to find him.

cover number OF pictures taken on an

$4,000 VALENTINES.
The Number Which Passed Through
the Postoffice Yesterday.
GOING OUT OF STYLE.
Children Chiefly Observe the Day, To-
qether With the Scandinavian
Element.

The handlers of the mails yesterday.
received from out of town 10000 valen!
tines. An equally large number was
sent by the devotees of the Saint within
the city to be delivered without its linz
its. In the city department. it is esti-
mated that there was number quite as
large. This makes 10000 messages OF
love handled by the Minneapolis post
Office. and the air of. the Office was fairly
renitent with the escaping incense OF
Cupid.
"Dan" Ahern, superintendent OF the
mails, says that the load is lighter this
year than previously.
"a few years ago." he said, "all the
young ladies and gentlemen took the
day as especially their own and flooded
the mails. The custom has been drop
ping off year by year till now there are
few devOteeS except among the chill
dren. The Scandinavians form large
part of the valentine senders this year,
/ can tell by the names. There are
among the thousands many elaborate
packages. Very few comic valentines
have been sent as yet; we always eaten
them late in the evening or the day
after Valentines day. There are hun
dreds of the comic valentines IN their
yellow envelopes. that will go travelling
back and forth for a week or two with
out being opened. We never expect to
rest with one day when St. Valentine
calls on us. 1t always lasts week OF
two. Not only do the valentines crowd
the mails but there have been an I'M
usually large number OF pink tlnteo,
perfumed envelopes directed with great
precision. Probably the custom is
changing and those who have failen
victim Of Cupid are writing their own
valentines"
Calls on number of the dealers IN
valentines shows that the custom Is
really declining. They all testify, TO
the fact that the sales have been less
this year than last and that last year
they were smaller thant the year BEFORE e;

Commercial Club.

c. III. Pratt has been securing sigma
lures of Minneapolis business men and
Thomas Cochran of those of st. Paul
who will agree to help form Twin
City commercial club. A number OF
the prominent men of both cities have
already consented to aid in the move
ment. 1t is thought that few conces-
sions can be made by both cities through
such au organization for their mutual
improvement. 1t is suggested that
through the fundamentally of such a
club the midway district can be i'm
proved and the capitol question settled.

"THE LEADER"
Gellerup's Play Presented at the
Hennepin Avenue.


The production of "'rhe Leader"
which the gifted and fiery Fritz Geller-
up is supposed to have evolved out of
his innermost consciousness, was
witnessed by a small audience
at the Hennepin Avenue theater
last evening. The piece was announced
to be a melodrama, but careful dag
nosis of the presentation showed that
the comedy element predominated,
with dark streaks of tragedy permeat-
ing it. The event had not been we'll
advertised, and only few enjoyed the
treat of a startling innovation
from the dramatic methods of
the day. The play deals with
the adventures of Pho Leander," who
leads mob of evicted tenants, shoots
his girls father escapes to America, re-
turns and marries her, all i'll four acts
and thirteen scenes of a varied nature.
in which mob violence of cOnsumptive
nature behind the scenes entered
largely. Fritz himself appeared as
Leander, and'his makeup resembled a
cross between Chinaman and a cow
