RLEEDING PILES

And all other forms of this common
and often dangerous disease readily
cured without pain or inconvenience.
Thousands of men and women are
afflicted with some sort of piles, With
out either knowing the exact nature of
the trouble, or knowing it, are careless
enough to allow it to run without TAX
ing the simple means offered for a rad
ical cure.
The failure of salves and ointments
to permanently cure piles has led many
to believe the only cure to be surgi-
cal operation.
Surgical operations are dangerous to
life and moreover not often entlrely
successful. and at this time are no
longer used by the best physicians or
recommended by them.
The safest and sureSt way to cure
any case of piles, whether blind, bleed
ing or protruding, is to use the Pyra-
mid Pile cure composed Of healing
vegetable oils, and absolutely free from
mineral poisons and opiates. The fol-
lowing letter from a Pittsburg gentle
man, a severe sufferer from bleeding
piles. gives some idea of the prompt,
effectual character of this pile cure.
He writes:
I take pleasure writing these few
lines to let you know that I did not
sleep for three months except for a
short time each night because of bad
case Of bleeding piles. I was down in
bed and the doctors did me no good. A
good brother told me of the Pyramid
Pile Cure and bought from my drug
gist three fifty-cent boxes. They cured
me and I will soon be able to go to my
work again.
WILLIAM HANDSCHU,
46 ST., Cotton Alley, below Butter St,

The Pyramid Pile Cure is not only
the safest and surest remedy for piles,
but is the best known and most pop
ular Every physician and druggist in
the country knows it and what it will
do.

cure of piles, describing all forms of
piles and the proper treatment.

Eleventh State Convention in Ses-
sion in the Mill City.
The Minnesota Unitarian conference was
convened Wednesday evening at the First
Unitarian church, when Rev. Clay McCauley,
of Toxic, preached the opening sermon. Ine
eminent Unitarian minister preached practl-
cal sermon upon the Importance of the Liberal
church in the thinking world, taking for his
text the well known Scriptural injunction
about aespising 1.-The day Of small things" He
referred to the fact that the Unitarians were
so very small numerically, but so very strong
in contributions to thought and philanthropic
action the world over. He spoke in detail of
the vast practical everyday work done by the
Unitarian church in this country. He urged
Unitarians not to be discouraged because OF
numerical weakness, but to be encouraged
because of spiritual greatness. He prophC5:ed
benefit to all from different parts OF the state
in an earnest, practical effort to do good and
to give inspiration to each other
The opening business session yesterday

address. He said that it is the duty of
the president of the United States to report
to congress his opinion of the state Of the
nation he thought it his duty to say word
as to the state of his church. He dwelt upon
the main points of difference that dlstln-
guish the Unitarian from other denomina-
relates to the. nature of Jesus. On this point
he believed not only in the divinity of Jesus,
but in the divinity of all men.
In the absence of Mrs. A. Fl. Num-, treas
urer of the conference, her report was read
by the secretary. 1t was lengthy statement
of receipts and expenditures, and showed
good condition of finances.
Reports were made by delegates OF the va
rious churches represented, and without ex-
ception they were of a satisfactory character.
Several of the smaller societies showed a

DIDN'T INTEND TO.
Haugan Had No Evil Intent ia Rob-
hing the CITY,

The greater portion of yesterday N the
Haugan case was spent in arguments over
an important point. The defense admits
the case of the state as far as made, and
attempts to put in evidence to. show that
Haugan had no evil intent in robbing the
city; in other words, that the city council
gave him the money he hand.ed, and de-
pended upon his bond for protec ion.
The arguments were ove- the admission
of evidence to sustain that theory, the ate
claiming that a man is responsible for his
acts. and cannot claim ignorance of the law
as pal;iation; The matter is not yet de, de-
cided. but if il is decided in favor of the
defense, it is possible that the state may
ask to show that in securing his b2ndzmen
Mr. Haugan did not let them know of the
state of things which he now depends upon
to get him out of his difficulties; in other
words that the bondsmen of Mr.. Haugan di3
not know that they were to go good for a
private bank run by Mr.. Haugan wi h city
funds, but that they depended upon the be
lief that Mr.. Haugan was not criminal
and they gave their bonds as surety that
he was honest.
Mr.. Nye spoke all the afternoon on his
side of the case, arguing for the admiss on
of the evidence he desired, and he had @ no.
completed the argument when court adjourn
ed for the day.

RECORDS TAMPERED WITH.
Occurrences Which COmpIicate the
Nunn Case.

There is a heap of trouble again in the
office of the clerk of the courts. Ever since
the indictment of A. H. Num- for forgery,
for the effacing and altering of records in
that office, the occupants have spent odd
times in fixing up evidence so as to have it
in perfect shape for the trial, which comes
off soon.
So perfect did they want everything that
they were not satisfied with the original in
dictments, and so secured another set, with
duplicates of the pages claimed to be altered
inserted therein. Yesterday again the Off
cials with Assistant County Attorney Purdy
went to the vault to look over the tax book
again. and there it was discovered that there
had been an alteration on one of the pages
after the indictment had been found. They
were angry. They spoke in no measured
terms of the luck, and then there was another
comparison of pages
The page in question has been copied by
two clerks and verified At another time the
clerk himself had gone over the page and
took notes. Two other clerks had taken the
page and made a copy, and had compared
eveTT mark on the page, even to the commas
and Nvery punctuation, and they swear that
the last erasure was not there Sept 2S. They
are srcDly at loss to know what to do. 1t
looks like a sort of Jack-the-Ripper mystery,
and they begin to believe that there are
spooks in the new court house. The latest
erasure if erasure it is, makes a variance
between the proof and the indictment, which
might set the latter aside, if Nunn's attorneys
find it out.

The question in this hoary pisce of htiga-

REV. WILKINSON ON TRIAL.
Motion to Dismiss Goes Over Until
Today.

TOGIy.
A large part of the population of North
Minneapolis was present in Judge Johnson S
court room yesterday, to take part in the
slander case Of Alediede E. NJ Daniels against
Rev. William Wilkinson, before jury. The
plaintiff claimed that the rector had accused
her of taking some OF the curtains from st.
Andrews church and making upholstery of
them, and that thereby he had accused her
OF larceny.
The plaintiffs case was opened b. the tes-
timony Of William Wilkinson, on cross-exam-
ination under the statute. lie admitted that
he had accused the plaintiff OF appropriating
curtain cloth. Ida NJ. Trottenson, the plainti1t
and Sarah A. Tufuel told Of several social
functions at which the reverend man had
charged the plaintiff with having used the
cloth for the decoration of her home,
and then a surprise was sprung when the
plaintiff placed Catharine Jane Baker on the
stand She had heard Mr. Wilkinson accuse
the plaintiff of taking the curtains on several
occasions. She gave most positive evidence
in the matter, until the defendants attorney
cross-examined. She grew quite interesting
over the church row, and finally said:
Several times | have heard Mr.. WILKINSON
say that she had taken the curtains, and L
asked him why he accused her of stealing.
He said he never said she had stolen them;
she had only taken them. | asked him what
the difference was and he said there was
great difference
that satisfies US
Mr.. Baker took the stand. He lad heard
several conversations about the curtains, and
once Mr.. Wilkinson had said that he thought
his wife was mistaken about Mrs. Baker
taking the curtains. Some one told him he
ought to make announcement of that TACT
when he made his Sunday morning announce
ments Mr.. Wilkinson had replied that if
he did it would get in the papers Monday
morning. One of the ladies had--said that
they didn't see who to put it in the pa
pers unless Mr.. Wilkinson did.
At the close of the evidence Mr. Reid, for
the defense moved for dismissal on
the ground that no evidence ha1 been given
to sustain the charges made in the complaint.
He argued that in the use of the words
"taken the curtains" the plaintiff had ac-
tually shown by the witnesses that the de-
fendant had actually asserted that he did not
intend to charge the plaintiff with larceny.

company with five mills, having a capacity
of IA, 600 barrels daily, is making endeavors
to buy up -four from the outside mills. This
is not speculative scheme, nor is it an ap-

is done, according to the companies con-

While at 1900 feet a fair supply of gas is

with which to make the experiment. Il
the desired flow is not reached at 1000 the

Both Finlayson and NicouIin Injured
in Saturdays Game.

and they are good ones, have received such
injuries that it is a question if they
get into shape for the Wisconsin game, much
less the Ames game In the game last Sat
urday Finlayson received ar injury to his
knee, but with the game as close as it was,
Finn thought that it necessary 70 stick
to it, and so played it out but it resulted
in the big fellow being badly wrecked. He
is out every night watching the practice and
attending to his classes and other duties, but,
as far playing is concerned, is mon est"
for a week or so. Nicoulin, the other tackle,
received what was thought to be slight in
jury to his shoulder Tuesday night. He left
the game and was examined by the trainer.
A visit to a doctor was advised, and now
MIC is laid on the shelf as the result Of
wrenched. in fact, thrown out of joint. He
cannot get out this week. These accidents,
happening just at time. when the coach
thought he had a pair Of corking tackles,
is a very severe blow to the team, and. as
a consequence, the teams prospects of vic
tory is much lessened Stock is quoted in
