YERXXA

The Seventh and Cedar
street store revolutionized GRO
Gerry prices-that's the story
in the fewest words. And the
people recognized the leader
ship by throwing a great bust
ness into our hands.
But fire revolutionized the
Seventh and Cedar store and
drove us to our present quar-
ters, the Market House at
Seventh and Wabasha. Revo-
lutlonists by nature and de-
scent, we've taken a hand at
revolutionizing the Old Mar
ket House, and since Satur-
day have changed dinginess
into brightness, stagnation
into life, gloom into gayety.
We've rushed into the big
building a huge stock of Gro
ceries that are spick and span
new, fresh, that not only looks
but 10 as bright as a just
coined dollar, and that we
propose to rush out at hitler
prices than ever. esf-
The Old Market House in
a brand new dress invites
your inspection and holds out
such price inducements as
these. 49,

LAND SALES BREAK RECORDS.
Three Railroads Disposed of $4,000
Acres This Month.

''The movement Of settlers and sale of lands
for this month Is phenomenal" said Secretary
P. B. Groat, Of the Minnesota State Immi-
grafton association, last evening: SCI do not re-
call any time in the last decade when such ac-
tiyity has been recorded in the Winter months
as Is now the case. The sales Of railroad lands
during January and February were unpre-
cedented, and the sales for this month are
also very heavy, especially when 1t is consid-
cred that for the most of the month the ground
was covered with snow.
''The sales reported by the railroad COM
panies were, in round numbers, as follows:
The Northern Pacific, 1900 acres; the Great
Northern, 5000 acres. and the ST. Paul G. Du-
luth, 1900 acres. The sales by individual
owners Of lands are reported as being proper
tionally large in various counties throughout
the state. These large land sales before the
spring has fairly opened give every assurance
that the immigration into Minnesota this sea-
SON will surpass that of any Of the past ten.

LADDER TRUCK STRUCK.
l.. K. q w. Engine Hit-Driver Albert
G. Rees Hurt.

AS hook and ladder truck No. 2 was re-
turning to its station on South street from
a small blaze at Murphy, Hibben 81 Co.'S
store, about 1919 o'clock yesterday morn
Ing. an inbound L.. E. & W.. passenger train
struck the truck broadside at the Delaware
street crossing. The heavy truck was
lifted from the ground and Albert c. Rees,
the driver. was thrown forward between
the horses. which fell on him. Chris. Claf-
fey, who was on the seat with Rees, was
thrown to the ground. but escaped injury.
Rees was dragged some distance before
the nj could be stopped. He was
Immediately carried to st. Vincents Hos
pital, u square away. where 1t was found
that he had sustained a severe cut in his
head. Beyond being somewhat bruised, he
was not otherwise injured. He was taken
to his home on Huron street, and 1t is
thought will soon be able for duty.
The truck was badly damaged. The steel
frame was bent and the wheels racked. 1t
will have to be returned to Chicago for re-
pair. The horses were somewhat bruised,
but not injured. AS far as can be learned
the blame for the accident seems to rest
on George Redman. the locomotive engi-
neer. The Board of Safety held a meeting
yesterday afternoon and Chief Webster
was instructed to thoroughly investigate
that the railroad company is responsible
ii will have to pay the expense OF repairing
the truck, which will be sent to Chicago

THE BUSINESS REVIVAL
ONE SALESMAN HAS AN EXPERIENCE
ON THE J., M. q 1. ROAD.
Took More Orders Yesterday than on
Any Other Day in the Last
Seven Years.

William Smith, a travelling salesman for
the Standard OIL Company, was among the
first to experierce the revival of business
consequent upon the election of Mckinley.
He sells kerosene to retailers throughout
the State. and during the last few months
has found business very poor. Nobody
would talk business, and the thought OF
buying anything seemed to be foreign to
the minds Of his customers. Everywhere
Mr.. Smith went he found the possibility Of
the election of Bryan the reason given for
the conservative policy Of merchants.
Yesterday he made a run down the j.,
NJ. & /. road and sold orders to every
man he was able to find at home. He said
last night in a conversation that he did
the biggest days business he had expert
enced in seven years in Indiana Not only
were liberal orders placed for goods, but
frequently merchants would enter into con-
tracts for a years supply Of oil, to be
delivered at intervals.
Mr.. Smith said further that he found
everybody looking happy and pleased. He
said his merchant friends who had been
buying so little in some lines that the
drummers found it useless to visit them
were now laying in supplies as II they IN
tended staying in business Orders which
were mailed to Eastern houses a few days
before the election were ordered by wire to
be doubled and shipped at once. Mr.. Smith
said he was completely astonished at the
rapidity with which the business boom
promised with the election of Mckinley had
begun.

BOOM in MARRIAGE LICENSES.
Young oupIes Taking Courage at
Mckinley's Election.

Business was practically at a standstill
In the courthouse yesterday, particularly in
the basement. where the members OF the
late administration club. of which whip
Spencer, Mayor Taggart's secretary, was
the leading spirit, ran about like a lot OF
stampeded cattle, trying to find some es-
cape from the general ruin. Their gloomy
countenances in the morning were really
pathetic, but as the day advanced and
all sorts of wild-eyed rumors got into
circulation their hopes Revived. Each man
that entered the basement was surrounded
and nearly torn to pieces by the city en-
ployes, who were hungry for comforting
news. Each suggestion that things were
not so bad. after all, was received with
hysterical glee: In the city clerks office
would admit that Bryan was defeated.
While the limbs of the administration club
were asserting that there was a good
chance for winning, the gold democrats
looked at them with plying smiles.
While the expiring Popocrats in the base
ment were kicking in the death struggle
were INDUCING in an old-time Republican
love feast. File Clerk Royse put uD a big
sign reading, ECU tn, kentucky" Henry
Spaan came in and looked at 1t with a
sickly smile.
You're not down in the mouth, are you.

License Clerk Fesler had a busy time yes
terday. No less than ten licenses to wed
were issued, and twenty hearts. encoNr-
aged by McKinley's election into believing
pre- sperous times will come and bless them,
were made glad.
City Controller Johnson was a gold man
before the Chicago convention, bur when
Mayor Taggart Topped Mr.. Johnson fol-
lowed him. None of his friends have be-
lieved that he was a silver man at heart.
Yesterday he seemed undisturbed.
What do you think of it, Mr.. Johnson"
inquired a reporter.
ooh. you know we could not have won on
that issue with a solid front. 1t was out
Of the question to win with divided forces.
Are you satisied?'
"Oh. I'm for Mckinley. now that he Is
elected. There is one thing sure, we are
going TO hold him t. his promises. He has
promised us prosperity, and il it don't
come We'll take care of him next time"

A boy forger, who left behind nm a cor

yers. at No. l2 Nassau street. Ills steal-
ings from his employers were not suhlciSht
to bankrupt the firm, but they regard hlh
as a moral curiosity.
He is Edmund Rose. fifteen years old. and
is thought 10 be the son OF a leWeier ia

i'm size. but with the frank, lnnocthl "a
of a boy. He is unusually intelligent, IN
expert penman and his employers thought
they had found a jewel.
He was so precocious that in the hTsi
four hours of his employment he learned
where Mr.. Hynan kept his bank account
and during anking hours on that DAY ne
forged Hyman's name TO a check lot :,
and got IL cashed at the bank. That nlEnI

He will probably improve on this WITH eA-
perience. He forged checks for & Oct. -
and for 50 Oct. "a.
He had procured by some undiscoVerei
means a key TO Mr.. Hyman's desk, wmci
he would open and thus secure the bank
check book. He was smart enough 10 tear
the checks from middle pages OF the pooh,
so that Mr.. Hyman did not notice their
loss.
one OF his diary entries reads: Last
night. Oct. IS. met a girl on Fourteehlh
street. had supper with her. then went 10
Prootor's. Left at IL O'Clock, went home
had a good nights rest and arrived al me

opened Mr.. Hyman's desk and tore oGt
one OF his checks. Drew up check for 20
and cashed II. Had lunch at the Aston
House. Cost S2.10.'
In addition to his forgeries, he collected
and kept several small sums due Mr.. ny
man and when the members of the lrm
were absent he assessed all who used the
Office telephone. In handling the office man
he held up every letter TO the light anc eN-
amined IL for checks or money and u -

aymen on IL was stopped. This Was
about the time he disappeared. Mr.. Hyman
sent him 20 the bank with the book 10 have

that this would disclose his stealings. re-
ported 10 the office that the bank hadn't

He did not return TO work Monday and
II is thought he has gone to some point
in Canada. as he had often expressed MS
determination to visit that region.
