ture, l applied myself diligently to my work
and studies. In time | noticed that my
health was failing. Ny trouble was indi-
gestion, and this with other troubles brought
on nervousness.
My physician prescribed for me for some
time, and advised me TO take a change of
climate. | did as he requested and was some
improved. Soon after, | came here rs pro-
feSsor in physics and chemistry, and later
was financial agent of this college. The
change agreed with me, and for awhile my
health was better, but my duties were heavy,
and again l found my trouble returning.
This time 1t was more severe and in the
winter | became completely Frustrated. l
tried various medicines and different physi-
clans. Finally, l was able to return to my
duties. Last spring | was elected president
of the college. Again / had considerable
work, and the trouble, which had not been
entirely cured, began 70 affect me, and last
fall collapsed. | had different doctors. but
none did me any good. Professor Bowman,
who is professor of natural science, told me
of his experience with DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People and urged me to give
them g trial, because they had benefited him
in a similar case, and | concluded to try
them.
"The first box helped me. and the second
gave great relief, such as | had never ex-
perienced from the treatment of any physi-
clan. After using six boxes of the medicine
was entirely cured. To-day am perfectly
well. l feel better snd stronger than for
years. l certainly recommend this medi-
cine"

County Commissioners Couldn't

County Commissioners Couldn't
Face Two, Adverse Opinions.
Ex-Sherfff ChapePs claim Of SIS, 154
against the county for the return of
warrants for the collection Of taxes
In the years 1893 and 1894 was disal-
lowed by the board Of county commits
sioners yesterday at their adjourned
meeting. AT it's first meeting the new
beard though in receipt of ex-County
Attorney Buffers opinion, that the
claim was invalid, referred the matter
to County Attorney Anderson for his
opinion. Mr.. Anderson complied with
the request by informing the board
that he fully concurred with Mr.. But
Ter, and recommending the diSalloW
ance of the claim.
On motion of Commissioner Keller
man, the resolution of the old board
allowing the sheriff's claim was re-
considered, and the claim was then dis
allowed by unanimous vote, all the
commissioners being present.
Considerable routine business was
transacted by the board, the session
lasting from 230 to 5:30'p. m. There
was one matter, however, little out
OF the routine class. 1t was the bill of
DR.. John L. Rothrock for expert serv-
ices rendered by him in making an
alySiS of the medicines and other
liquids administered by Rev. J. c. Hull
to his wife, for the purpose of ascer-
tanning whether they contained poison
Gus ingredients DR.. Rothrock per-
formed this work at the request Of the
county attorney. His bill amounts to
$3.50 1t seemed to stagger some of the
county commissioners. After County
Auditor Sullivan had read it to the
board, he volunteered the observation
that Dr. Rothrock was the deputy
health commissioner, in receipt Of a
salary from the city, and was there
fore not entitled to any extra compen-
sation for his services in this case.
The board thereupon referred the bill
to the committee on claims.
Upon inquiry at the office of the
health department, later in the day, it
was learned that the expert service in
question was performed by DR.. Roth
rcck in his individual capacity and in
his own archaeological laboratory.
Furthermore, the archaeological la
utilized for making analysis free Of all
charge, only in cases where the speci-
mems examined are supposed or Sus-
pected of containing some contagious
diseases.
The contract for two publications in

tai receipts OF that Office to be SO, 1915.

THE OTHER BANKS,
Business Going Along as UsuaI-TalIk
of Reorganization

Business at the banks yesterday was
done in the ordinary way and without
a ripple of excitement. All the insti-
tutions reported increased business in
the way of receiving new deposits
This is sure indication that the feel
ing Of distrust and panic is disappear
ing. 1t now seems probable that the
Germania will be reorganized, and
that very soon. The depOsitors seem
to want it, and there seems to be no
reason why in the opinion Of the di-
rectors, the reorganization should not
take place at an early date.
0. E. Holman, attorney for the bank,
said that there was no doubt of the
reorganization Of the bank. THE de-
positors want it, and there is nothing
in the way of prompt action as soon
as the court will confirm the appoint
ment Of P M. Kerst as assignee. The
committee appointed by President Will
Illus Is ready to proceed"
Maurice Auerbach, receiver Of the
Allemanria bank, is being assisted in
his work by Capt Owens, expert ac-
countant, and the entire clerical force

into this bank on the day Of the sus-
pension have been listed by the re
ceiver and it is probable that they
will be returned. They amount to
nearly $1,000.
Receiver Staples, Of the West Side
bank, Is preparing a statement that
will be made public in a few days. 1t
is generally believed that the bank
will be reorganized.

SENATE WILL BE SHORT.
Members Want "a Few Days at Their
Homes

The senate will meet this morning at 10
O'Clock, but its session will no doubt be
short, as the committees have not yet been
named. and, In fact the senate would have
for a doubt as to the power ofethe senate to
adjourn over such an interval without the
concurrence Of the house There is no doubt
however, after this morning, and after the
committee OF mileage reports, as appointed
yesterday, it will no doubt adopt the report
and adjourn to Monday afternoon next, when
it is expected that President Gibbs will have
his list of committees ready to announce
and business will be taken up in earnest
All that was done at the opening of the
morning session of the legislature was to call
the roll and approve the journal. Senator
Yale then moved to take a recess till II
o'clock.
The members spent the intervening time
in filling their desks with stationery and sup
plies which were distributed by the sec
rotary.
When the senators returned at 1870 Sen
ator Young moved that committee of three
be appointed on mileage. 1t was adopted and
the president appointed Senators Young, Barr
and Morgan.
Senator Hale called attention to the fact
that the senate might not adjourn until next
Tuesday without the consent of the house
out senator Wyman was Of the opinion that
an adJournnent until Monday would come

Hitler H. Horton, J. T. Conley. Dan
lei l.. Bell, E. B. Putnam and T. A.
Barker. committee representing
large number of the depositors in the
Bank of Minnesota, held a. meeting
last evening at the Metropolitan hotel
The gentlemen were in session nearly
three hours but were not inclined to
talk very much for publication Mr.
Horton stated that they represented
depositors to the number Of about 400
who, at the time the bank closed, had
on deposit in the institution over $780,
00O
AT the first meeting of the deposi-
tors, held several days ago, there were
only about thirty of the larger deposit
tors present. Since then the number
had increased rapidly and those hav-
ing deposits in the suspended bank
were anxious to join with them. The
committee claim that the only creditors
Of the bank now are the depositors, and
they intend to take steps toward a
reorganization. The proposed plan will
necessarily be one that will do away
with the present receivers, and the
first step will not be taken until the
report Of the receivers has been sub
mitted to the court. The committee,
in the absence of any statement or
figures from the receivers, has been
obliged to use such figures as were
obtainable from the reports of the
bank previous to the suspension.
Mr. Horton said the committee had
decided practically on a feasible plan,
but for the present nothing could be
said as to the details. The committee
were satisfied that a showing could be
made to the court which would result
in the action demanded by the de-
positors being granted. Those who
were interesting themselves in the mat
ter were increasing in numbers each
day, and the question of whether a
majority Of the depesitors could be Sc
cured to sign the necessary petition
was now assured. This committee
Mr.. Horton said, was not interested in
the reorganization scheme Of the
shareholders Of the bank and had moth
ing to do with the committee from
the stockholders who were planning
for a reorganization of the bank.
