Some time ago he had severe illness

Old Settlers.

The Minnesota Territorial Pioneers
was the name adopted by the old set
tiers. 1t had previously been the in
tention of calling the organization
''The Old Time Boys of Territorial
Days." but this was not considered suf-
fciently dignified. The meeting was
held at the Merchants hotel, st. Paul,
and was followed by badquet. The
purpose of the organization is to per-
petuate the memories and friendships
of old days. A constitution and bylaws
was adopted, and the following officers
were elected: President, Alvaren AL
len; first vice president, William E.
Lee; second vice president, H. S. Fair
child; secretary, w. H. Hoyt; treas
urer, John A. Stees.

For Crippled Children.

By July it is expected that all ar
rangements will have been made by
the regents OF the university for the
reception of patients under the new
law which permits the board to care
for the deformed and crippled children
of INDECENT parents in some one of the
hospitals of the Twin Cities. The
amount appropriated by the new law
for this purpose is $1,000 annually. At
the last meeting of the regents the
matter came before the board, and
Judge Mahoney of Minneapolis and
Judge Clark of st. Paul were named a
committee with power to act.

More RarticuIars Of the contsnts Of
the Spanish Note
A semi-ofncial note has been circulated
In Madrid giving more exact indication
OF the contents OF the Spanish note In re-
ply to the communication Of the United
States on the subject Of Cuba than has
hitherto been published. The first part
OF the reply Is a paraphrase Of the latest
note OF the United States. 1t concludes
with the assurance that Spain is AMI
mated by the same friendly feeling as ex-
pressed on behalf OF the United States.
The second part of the reply goes into
elaborate details concerning the various
flibustering expeditions. Spain, In con-
cluding that portion OF her reply to the
United States. expresses the hope that
this phase OF the situation will be changed
and that the United States will try to
prevent further violations of interna-
tional law" Replying 10 the offer Of
mediation made by the United States,
Spain says she hopes the United States
will act "loyally and correctly in helping
Spain to pacify Cuba, especially in view
Of the fact that such an extended form OF
autonomist government is about to be sim
cerely granted" The-general feeling In
SPANS capital is more hopeful Of a
peaceful outcome OF the situation, espe-
cially since Marshal Blanco's arrival at
Havana, as it is believed his presence will
greatly further the solving of the Cuban
problem.

Bradstreet's Takes a Favorable View

Bradstreet's commercial report says:
s'Killing frosts South, the raising of quar-
antine embargoes at nearly all States in
yaded by yellow fever, the resumption OF
traffic and a prospective revival in de-
mand for staple merchandise constitute
the trade features Of the week. Rains in
central western and western States, fol-
lowed by colder weather, have favored
farmers and stimulated demand from IN
terror storekeepers. This has had a favor
able effect at Louisville, st. Louis and
Kansas City. Jobbers in northwestern
States are awaiting seasonable weather
to stimulate the movement of heavy dry
goods and winter clothing. Leading man
ufacturing industries continue fairly well
employed. In addition to lower prices for
Southern and Bessemer pig and for steel
billets, quotations for naval stores, woods,
copper, coffee, pork, -four, oats and wheat
are lower, while those for cotton, print
cloths, sugar and beef are unchanged, and
for Indian corn and lead, are a shade
higher. Wheat eXports-four included as

gregate $3.50, 216 bushels, compared with

WILL GO 1T ALONE.

Canadian Labor Organizations to
Withdraw from Parent Bodies.
As result of De Barry's vigorous
anti-alien work on the frontier, there is q
growing movement all along the lines
among Canadian trades unions to sever
connection with the parent bodies in the
States. Recently there was formed In
Ottawa, Can, a new body to take the
place Of the knights Of Labor in Canada.
1t is known as the Canadian Federation
Of Labor, and is prosecuting vigorous
anti-American campaign among the
knights of Labor assemblies in Ontario
and Quebec, the two provinces where
unionism is strong. The federation claims
that the alien labor laws passed by the
United States Congress were the result
Of agitation by United States trades
unions, and they. as Canadians, therefore,
do not care to have any further nominal
friendliness where none exists. The Sc
cession Of the Ancient Order Of United
Workmen from the jurisdiction Of the SUI
preme lodge in the United States is fair
indication Of the feeling that is prevailing
in Canada with regard to the alleged an
tipathy of Americans to Canada.

Capt. George McCluskey, chief Of the
detective bureau ut New York police
headquarters, and score of the ablest
men under his command have been en-
gagged during the past week in trying to
solve the mystery Of great diamond
robbery. Mrs. Alice Norton, a wealthy
young widow, living mt the Hotel Bar

Sound the Adieu.
The Tennessee Centennial Exposition
closed Saturday night, the event being
heralded by the ringing OF chimes, the
blowing,of whistles, the booming Of can
non and the sounding Of horns In the
hands Of young and old. There were many
thousand OF persons on the grounds, the
attendance during the entire day having
been large.
The events of the closing day included
concerts In the afternoon ut the Woman's
Building and In the Auditorium, large
audiences being present. At night inter-
esting exercises were held In the Audito-
rum. The building was packed. although
the exercises did not begin until ~
o'clock, and were concluded only ut mid
night. Addresses were delivered by Hon.
Tully Brown, G.. II. Baskette, Director
General Lewis, Mrs. Kirkman, president
OF the woman's board, and President
Thomas. The speakers reviewed the his
tory Of the exposition, and congratulated
the people of Tennessee upon the success
attending the great show. The speaking
was followed by a salute Of sixteen guns
in honor of the first sixteen States Of the
Union. At midnight the chimes rang, the
whistles blew, the horns sounded and the
exposition was closed.
The total attendance Mt the exposition
since the opening on the first day Of last
May Is estimated at 1,750,00O. President
Thomas officially announced that the ex-
position will pay out dollar for dollar, and
this promptly. The largest day Of the
exposition was President j. w. Thomas
day, Oct. %. The attendance was a.
493; this is nearly 10000 more than the
attendance at Atlanta on their red letter
day. The estimate of attendance by the
chief of the bureau Of promotion and pub
licity was 100000. and his limit would
have been surely reached but for the
senseless yellow fever scare. Not sin
gle casualty occurred at the exposition
during the six months of it's existence.
The order maintained ut the exposition
was magnificent.
DR.. Charles w. Dabney, president OF
the Government commission, on behalf of
all the Government officials sent long
communication to the executive commit
tee, in which he paid high praise to Pres
ident Thomas, Director General Lewis
and Chief of Promotion and Publicity

formed by them and also thanking them
for their uniform kindness to everyone
connected with his department..

HAS IT COME AT LAST7
Is This California Treatment the Long.
LOokcd-For Consum ption Cure?

Looked-For Consumption Curer
Sixteen consumptive patients, who had
been healed by DIR. Joseph o. Hirsch-
felder's lymph, called oxytuberculine,
were examined last week at Cooper Med
ical College, San Francisco, and a coun-
Gil of the best physicians decided that in
every case marked improvement had &C.
CURED, and that in some a cure was sub
stantially effected. One of the worst
cases was that of Thomas III. Williams, a
wealthy young horseman, to whom was
allowed six months only of life by Chi
cago experts. He was so much reduced
when he began that he painted at the least
effort. Now he can walk Eve miles with
ease or run up stairs.
DR.. Levi G. Lane, founder Of Cooper
College, said in regard to Hirschfelder's
cure: Il am absolutely certain that DR..
Hirschfelder has made one of the great
est discoveries of modern times. His
consumption cure is marveiously effective.
At n meeting Of the faculty Of Cooper
Medical College 1 appointed committee
to investigate the cure. The committee
consisted Of nearly all the members Of the
faculty. Sixteen Of DR.. Hirschfelder's pa
tents were examined. Their oral state
ments were taken. Some Of them were
stripped and careful, minute physical ex-
aminations were made. Fourteen were
found completely cured, and the other
two showed marked Improvement.
This is the first detailed inquiry as to
the cure that has been made by a COM
mittee Of doctors, but when DR.. Hirsch-
fielder announced his discovery last April
to the State Medical Society, forty per-
sons whom he had been treating with his
cure sat in the hall for three hours and
not one Of them coughed during all that
time, though they had had consumption
in the first, second and third stages, be-
fore treatment began. Some Of the pa
tients who were cured came from long
distances to give their evidence to the
committee on account Of their gratitude.
They are from 81 to 35 years DID, and
among them are women as well as men.
1t had been demonstrated with the micro
scope in each case that they We're infect
ed with germs of consumption before
treatment began. 1t was shown that
these germs were absent before treatment
was ended and afterward."
DR.. Hirschfelder prepares his lymph
from veal in which tuberculine is inject
ed, and he appears to have solved the
problem which Koch attempted to solve.
He has spent $4,000 in three years on his
experiments.
