NO RUNNING RACES.

Doble Made That a Condition in
Bringing Nancy Hanks to the
Fair.
The races at the state fair this fall
will be exclusively trotting races with
the possible exception that there may
be steepleclase. This is the result of
a meeting of the executive committee
of the fair association held yesterday at
the office of the secretary, when the
members thought that the running con-
tests would cut up the track and pre-
vent the breaking of trotting records.
Many of the owners of fast trotters were
d lbiOus about putting their horses out
on the track if there were to be mixed
races, and DOble made that positive
corditlon with Nancy Hanks, hence
the step. A full card of trotting events
was made up. and there is no reason
why the racing should not be thoroughly
enjoyed, as with fast horses and the track
in good condition it is not improbable
that a record or two may be lowered.
Bud Doble will be here with string of
flyers, headed by the invincible Nancy
Hanks, and it is more than probable
that the speedy little mare will knock
off half a second from her recent record.
This will be attempted on Wednesday,
Sept. Z.
Supt. Bailey will 60 to the grounds

in any quantity. The process, while
comparatively simple. is very instruct
i've, and the little plant at the fair cam
not fail to be the center of much inter-
est. In the first place the green coffees
are subjected to considerable handling,
which is all done by labor-saving ma
chimes of the most unique pattern. A
dumped into hopper on the
floor, over which a large funnel
or tube hangs. A mechanical fan
is started, which creates such an enOr-
nous suction up the funnel that the
coffee is drawn rapidly up the pipe and
carried into the top of a milling machine
which looks and is operated much like
small threShing machine.
This mass is rolled, dropped, polished
and separated into different sizes of
beans until it comes out of the bottom of
the machine thoroughly cleaned, differ
ent sizes into different hoppers, and the
scales and dirt all removed. The coffee
is now ready for roasting. Again the
suction pipe lifts the coffee up into
large elevator, which holds about 500
pounds and hangs over the doors of the
roasting ovens. Each oven has re-
volving cylinder, thus keeping the cof
fee constantly turning over hot char
coal fire. III twenty minutes batch is
roasted, and the lower door is sprung
and the coffee runs out into large cool
ing pan. Formerly water was used, but
row this pan is constructed with
double bottom and the under space is
connected with large suction pipe. A
draught of cool air is then shot through
the coffee, and in addition to cooling it
rapidly carries off the su.olle. Iii few
moments the coffee is ready to be ele
waited by third suction pipe to sec
ond elevator. from which it is dropped
lDtO the glazing machine, which is a re-
volvlng cylinder which polishes and
hardens the coffee and enables it to re-
tain its aroma longer than it otherwise
would. Again 1T is elevated and car
ried by a system of cOnveyorS to the
packing room. where it is deposited into
bins or large receptacIes on a packing
bench, before which number of girls
sit making up paper packages of the
glossy beans. So successful has the
operation OF the apparatus proved that
the fair managers have persuaded
Messrs. Griggs, Cooper & Co. to show
its work during fair week.

STATE OF THE BANK.
Judge Kelly Listening to the Pc
titiOn In Re the CONNER
Cial Bank.
Statement of Its Finances Seems
to Warrant Resuming Its
Business.

The application to reinstate and re-
habiIitate the Commercial bank was
heard yesterday by Judge William
Louis Kelly in chambers. There were
a number of attorneys, representing
about $50 creditors, present, and the
petitioner was represented by G. D. and
L. d. OBrien. No objection was
offered by any one to granting the petit
ton to permit the bank to open its doors.
Judge Kelly invited the attorneys to
discuss the legal phase of the matter.
His honor stated that he had some ques-
ton as to his right to take any action in
the matter, in view of the lameneSs of
the law, and, as it is an equitable
proceeding, he desired all the in
formation on the law that might
occur to the attorneys present.
Several attorneys spoke on the
subject. The consensus of opinion IS
that the proposed action will be in the
interest of the creditors. There is an
agreement signed by $50 of the princi-
pal creditors agreeing to defer pressing
their claims and guaranteeing $500, 600
of the old capital stock. Besides this
of new stock. This will make double
liability of S750000 of stock, and will
place the bank on good footing, be-
sides taking care of all creditors.
Judge kelly is considering the ques-
ton as to his right to make an order in
the premises-all other questions hav-
ing been set at rest-and will make
known his decision within few days.
Albert Scheffer was examined as to
the advisability of discharging the
assignee and reinstating the bank. He
stated that the claims would probably
depreciate in value rs per cent ii a
forced collection is made, whereas if
the bank is reopened and the officers
permitted to collect the debts they will
be collected almost in their entirety.
He also expressed the view that a
forced collection by the assignee might
cripple several business houses.
Mr.. Lightner appeared for the as
signee of the bank and stated that
while he offered no objection to his dis
Charge, under the circumstances, still
the matter of expense up to date should
be provided for. He said to the court
would simply place the assets in the
hands of the bank again. Here the
Scheffer brothers held short private
consultation with Attorneys Light
ner and O'Brien. Mr.. LIghtner
then announced that all agreement
had been reached relative to the
compensation of the assignee. This
was stated to be $4,000, about 2 per cent
| of the amount of collections. some $685.
600. Mr.. Seymour, as assignee, has ex-
| pended for clerk hire, bookkeeping, etc,
| about $4,000, which was credited to him,
| in addition to the above. Mr.. Light
| ner's fees were agreed upon at $4,000. A
| conservative estimate of the banks as
sets is placed at 100000. which, added
to certain other sums, constitutes all ag-
gregate capital $780, 600. The remain
| ing Indebtedness is stated to be $3.50, 600,
by which showing the assets would ex-
coed the liabilities by s590,000.

ROASTING COFFEE.
An Interesting Process to Be
Shown at the State Fair.

An Interesting Process to Be
Shown at the State Fair.
A complete apparatus for roasting
coffee in bulk will be one of the feat
ures of the coming state fair, which
opens at Hamline Monday, Sept. 5.
Messrs. Griggs, Cooper & Co., of st.
Paul, have caught onto the progressive
idea of putting up and operating at the
fair the most improved machinery for
the manipulation of coffees, and visitors
to the fair will be given an opportunity
of witnessing the very interesting pro-
cess. The firm includes in its equip
ment this apparatus, which was built by
the Hungerford company. OF New York.
and the ingenious mechanism which has
been devised for the purpose of per-
forming this common duty must
be seen in order to be fully
appreciated. The Northwest is
great coffee-drinking country. and
millions of pounds are annually sold in
this market. Inasmuch as coffee de-
teriorates after being roasted, and loses
its flavor with time, the question pre-
sents itself why not roast the coffee
nearer the consumer And the pres
ence in this city of full appar tus for
roasting coffee is the answer to the
question. The demand is for fresh
roast, and in this way purchasers Sc
cure their coffee fresh and fragrant and

of the Newsboys' Home association, to-
gether with representatives of the press
and number of clergymen,at the news
boys club rooms on WaDasha street
yesterday morning at IL o'clock. The
meeting was an extremely interesting
one, although not so largely attended as
could have been wished. The work
already done by the association was
discussed, and plans made for the
future usefulness of the institution.
The matron, Miss Grace Johnson, was in
Structed to write an article for publica-
ton, setting forth the work of the as
ISOLATION and the need for such an
organization, and appealing to the pub
lie for aid in carrying it on. The pub
LEGATION of the appeal will be followed
by meeting of the directors and all
people interested in the work. The
number of newsboys and street boys in
ST. Paul is SO much larger than one
would expect, that the need OF club
rooms is great indeed.

member of the Reid Tailoring COM
pany, will he married to Miss Elizabeth
K. Reid. daughter of Z. nj. keid, of
White Bear lake. The ceremony will
be performed in the presence of the i'm

they will visit along the Pacific coast.
returning over the Canadian Pacific
after two months trip to establish
their home III st. Paul.
Miss Reid has been the favored of a

| to so estimable an old st. Paul boy as
Charlie Trott has evoked the kindest
| concerns i'll society.
Frank Iselin gave a dinner at the
/ Town and Country club on Monday in
honor of George Wood, of New York,
whose engagement to Miss Bend was

was small, but one of the prettiest ever
given at the club house.

DISGUISED REPUBLICANS.
Veterans'Union League Addressed

The Veterans Union league, SO
called. purely Republican Institution.
held service at their rooms in the
Endlcott block last evening. Capt.
Henry Castle, VITO has been royalty
recognized by his party. was naturally
the principal speaker. He dwelt prin-
cipally upon the fact that Republican
war officers had occupied the White
house, with the exception of Grover
Cleveland. and 1t was Grover that he
was making the point against.
Growers ideas upon the tariff question
were reviewed. and the point was not
tOed certain perniciOus pension bills.
Cleveland was roasted throughout the
meeting because he is not member of
the organization. and there was good
deal said about HarriSon'S patriotism.
And the vetoeS of special pension bills
were reviewed by DR.. Murphy at length.
he went into a personal rehearsal,
and cited certain instances where
old soldiers might have been
drawing their government pensions
were it not for Cleveiand'S
veto power. Capt. Castle made the
speech of the evening, however, although
DIR. Murphy made a great effort. DIR.
Murphy had good deal to say about the
difficulties that arise in the cases of APP
plications for pensions. He went so far
as to say that the soldiers who have no
hospital records really have slight
chance to get on the pension rolls. That
is to say, as he put it, those who stood
in the front and fought and did not
make excuses and get into the hospital,
were in sad way, AS rule, they
could not get pensions.
The matter OF wearing the badge of
the organization was discussed, and it
was voted most reprehensible thing
for Democrat to wear badge. Presi-
dent Harrison was eXtOlied aud Grover
Cleveland was roasted, and this was the
temper OF the meeting.

THE FINGER NAILS.
What ST. Paul Iianicure Says on
the Subject.

She was very pretty girl. Her dark
hair curled over the tips of ears, de-
liciously pink. Her great gray eyes
were deep, Swallowed by dusky lashes,
and she worked away at my nails as if
her life, instead of one cart-wheel dol
lar, depended OH her rendering them
things of beauty. She politely called
me all sorts of names because of nv
inky second joint. but when finally
persuaded her to talk she ratified away

Yes, the fashion for having the nails
man!cured is always increasing. At
first we had scarcely anyone, but now
we have all we can care for.
Women? Why, no! If you'll be-
lieve II, most of our customers are men.
Oh, men are ever so much more partic-
ular about their nails than women.
They want them tinted and polished
and trimmed TO point, and they want
il done often, too. But this / tell you, a
man never comes to have his nails man
toured after he is thirty-five years old.
Women come Of all ages. Sometimes
we have little girls. One little girl was
brought here to see if we could cure her
of biting her nails-"and MademoiselIe
