The Department Working at Full
Pressure for Xmas.
The corridors of the poStoffice were
crowded yesterday with people having
Christmas presents to mail. The post
office is doing big business in receiv-
ing and delivering holiday packages
Assistant Postmaster O'Brien said that
the people are doing their packages uD
better this year than formerly. He
thinks the improvement is due to warn
ingS given by newspapers last year. An
inspection of the searching department
of the postoffice yesterday revealed the
fact that thousands of letters find their
way into that room for lack of proper
addresses or because of being wrongly
addre ssed. In most cases it is inferred
that the mistakes are made by ignorant
people. The way the envelopes are in
dOrSed indicates iliiteTacy. In SOme
cases there are no such towns as named
in the states designated. In many cases
no such state is named. Other cases are
these where there is no postoffice,
and, in still others, no other adj
dress than the county and state are
| given. A lumber of letters are ad-
| dressed to lumber camp by the name
| of the operator, with. no county given.
| This necessitates an inquiry as to the
| location OF such camps, and their
| changes from time to time. A corps of
| clerks are constantly kept busy in the
| department at st. Paul in endeavoring
to learn the destination Of the letters,
| and in forwarding them.
Another branch of work in the post
office in ST. Paul is that of looking after
| packages from foreign countries. If a

TO TEACH NURSES.
A Noble Work Undertaken
by the Board Of
Control.
Women to Be Trained as
Nurses at the City
Hospital.
How DR.. AnckeP Will UNDER
take This New De-
papture. &
And How Applicants VIII Be
Admitted for Tu-
ition.

The board of control, at its meeting
Nov. 16, decided, upon the recommends
ton of City Physician Ancker, to es-
tablish at the city hospital a training
school for nurses, and, commencing
with the new year, a most desirable field
for the employment of women will be
opened. The system will be similar in
every respect to those i'll vogue in the
training schools attached to the large
hospitals in Eastern cities. Candidates
deSlrOus of becoming professional
nurses, vocation peculiarly adaptable
for women, will, in the first instance, file
applications with the city physician. ac-
companied by certificates as to health and
character. If the candidate is accepted,
she is placed on probation for one
month at the hospital, receiving board
and lodging If accepted after the term
OF probation, the candidate will be re-
quired TO sign an agreement to remain
in the training school. For the first
year probatiOnerS will be called Junior
nurses; for the second year, senior
nurses. During the first year the pupils
reside and board at the hospital, reeeiv-
ing sS per month, and i'll the second
year, $40 per month. This sum is not
paid as wages, the valuable education
impaired being considered full equiv
alent for services. The money is paid
for the purpose of the pupil purchasing
the training school uniform and per-
sonal clothing. The pupil is given reg
ular surgical and medical instructions,
and is assigned to duty in the wards,
and, at the end of TWO years, receives a
diploma certifying to the course of
training and practice. The superin-
tendent of nurses has charge of the
training school. under the direction of
the city physician, and the comfort and
welfare of the pupils will at all times be
carefully looked to.
''The training schools in the Ea st have
graduated a large number Of qualified
nurses" remarked DR.. Ancker last evening
land we are hopeful that our training school
will become valuable institution il the
Northwest. This is the first school estab
lished west of Chicago, and the field of
service here is vast one. You
see. we do not pay any salaries.
for the reason that we do not want any one
to join the school for any living We board
anu lodge the pupils, give them a small sum
TO pay for the uniform and minor expenses
and besides give them a valuable training
No distinction will be made as to religion.
but we will not accept any iliterate person,
for the reason that trained nurse is re-
CURED TO make written reports of the pa
tents under her charge, and the instructions
given TO the nurse by the physician are al
ways in writing. Nursing is a noble WORK
and one for which a woman is adapted. The
work is arduous but becomes a pleasure To
those who undertake it for its own sake and
not for what il NAV bring

STAND BY ST. PAUL.
Line OF Work Undertaken by the
Commercial Club.

The board of directors of the Com
merciai club held protracted meeting
last evening at the Windsor. The dis
cussIon was chiefly on the course to be
pursued in encouraging st. Paul indus
tries. 1t was fOrcibly stated that the
organization of the club has done much
to inspire confidence in st. Paul as
manufacturing point. 1t was stated
that the agitation of the matter has Gre
ated demand for st. Paul-made goods
in many lines. The recent inquiry for
cigars made here has indicated that it
is necessary to increase the output very
considerably, and there is prospect of
soon having double the cigar factories
at present.
The next meeting of the board will be
on the second Tuesday in January, at
which time the boot and shoe and cigar
industries will be discussed i'll eXtensO.
The committee on industries reported
that they had inquired into the state
ment that st. Paul concern proposes
going to ChaSka, where it is offered
bonus of $1,000. 1t was learned
that the concern employs one man in
addition to the proprietOrS. The board
arrived at the determination that it is
not wise TO offer bonuses to home in
dustrieS with view of retaining them.
This policy is determined on to preclude
the possibility of concerns making up
fictitious Inducements from abroad
with view of being bought off at home,
1t is the Intention Of the club to take
up the fight Of the people and see that
they get fair play in the matter of street
car rights,

ton to be rendered by the press club to
Sir Edwin Arnold being one of the most
successful social events of the season.

afternoon, from 3 to O'clock. There
are 125 members of the club, resident
and nonresident, and almost every
member will attend the reception,
accompanied by lady. To keep
the attendance within reasonable
limits, it was decided that
the number of tIcked be limited.
The reception committee of the club,
which has the whole matter in charge,
is made up by Messrs. f. V. Smalley,
Lewis Baker and George Thompson,
and, to assist in the large amount of
work that has to be performed, the
chairman has called upon Messrs. F.
w. Lee, H. T. Black and G. w. Dodds
to assist.
The visit of Sir Edwin Arnold to the
city is in connection with an entertain
ment he will give in the Peoples church
Monday evening. which Will consist OF
readings, stories and songs from his
own works. The eminence of Sir Ed
win Arnold is we'll known. He is one
of the greatest journalists England has
produced. and his Light of Asia" and

the front rank of the poets of this gen

been very successful. Crowded houses
