Ayers Sarsaparilla erjoys the ex'
traordinary distinction Of having been
the only blood purifier allowed an ex-

According To d n~tatHhont made at th6
Montreal meeting OF the American So
ciety Of Mechanical Engineers by Su-
perintondent Heggem Of the engine
works at Massillon, o., the advantages
Of compressed air have been very pro-
nounced in the foundry operations Of
that establishment. The air is supplied
by Q OF three compressors. A bell
driven compressor, 10 by 10 inches in
size, runs constantly and supplies most
Of the air that is used, and the working
pressure is from 60 to 10 pounds; a ~
inch by Z inch steam driven duplex
compressor is operated by a pressure
valve, 10 that when the pressure Of air
falls below 60 pounds this compressor
is put in motion to supply the defcien-
cy-the air supply being thus main
tanned automatically. A smaller steam
driven compressor is also kept as q re-
serve in case Of accident to either Of the
other machines. The air is stored i'll
three reservoirs Of $50 cubic feet capac-
ity each, and these reservoirs are placed
in those parts Of the works where tho
greatest volume of air is required, and,
owing to the intermittent use Of the air,
the compressors are equal to furnishing
q sufficient amount, and at a cost Of
something like $3 per day of ten hours.

Does Your Mother Know You're outq


This cant question was current a good
many years ago-I should think about
25 or 80. Perhaps 1t had its popularity
from some music hall song of the time.
1t appears in almost identical words in
a comic poem published in The Mirror
Of April g8, 1888 volume 81, No. 800,
page 282), which is said to be an ex-
tract from Bentley's Miscellany. 1t is
entitled "The Meeting, After the Man
ner of Ludwig INLAND"
Five stanzas describe very sentimen-
tally how the poet lay beside a fountain
dreaming Of Elysian plains, Of old cas-
ties, gigantic forests, troops Of nymphs,
etc., and how a ~"lovely May" advances
toward him from the forest shade:
Straight I rose and ran to meet her,
Seized her hand the heavenly blue
OF her bright eyes smiled brighter, sweeter
As she asked me, "Who are your"
To this question came another
What its aim / still must doubt
And she asked me: 'How's your motherp
Docs she know that you are out2"
"Noi my mother does not know it,
Beauteous, heaven descended Musel"
"Then off get you, my handsome poet,
And say l sent you with the news"

APPROVE THE AGREEMENT.
Assembly Committee Approve the
Document Drawn by Markham.

Assemblyman Kirke, Albrecht and
Dix, the committee on ways and means
from that body, held a session yes
terd2y afternoon to consider the agree
n1ent submitted by the corporation at
torney, Thursday night, between the
city and the city treasurer and his Of
fetal bondsmen. The committee asked
the city attorney why the West Side
bank was included in the agreement
and nothing said about the Minnesota
Savings bank Mr.. Markham explain
ed that the money deposited in the
Minnesota Savings bank had not been
put in the institution until after the
bond in the sum of $4,000 had been
filed and duly approved by the council.
In the Allemannia, Germania, Bank of
Minnesota and West Side banks. no
bonds had been approved by the cOuE-
Gil, under the resolution which stated
that no money should be deposited I'M
til a bond had been approved In the
three first mentioned banks no bonds
had been approved under the 1896 reso-
lutiOns, while in the case of the West
Side bank a certain amount of the
funds which were in that institution
when it closed had been deposited be-
fore the bond given had been approved.
The committee decided to report favor
ably on the resolution to approve the
agreement, and a special meeting Of
the assembly will be called Monday or
Tuesday to pass the agreement.
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1897-06-19

aggregating about $4,000. The session
was brief, the, only business to be
transacted being the appointment Of
a committee of three to be present in
court this morning to represent the OBJ
Jectors and to present the petition The
committee selected consists of George
A. Laid, Leo Bruggeman and o. Sill
herman.
j. Fliegler expressed the sense of the
meeting when he said:
1t Is only just that the receiver
should be a party in no way connected
with the bank. certainly not a debtor,
and not related to any officer or stock
holder. For instance, William Hamm
mas been mentioned in connection with
the appointment, Now we all know,
at least l DO. that Mr. Hamm is an
honest man. but as receiver Of the
bank do you think he is going to sue
himself as stakeholder or sue Albert
Schefter as stakeholder to enforce his
liability? Moreover, we don't want
any one appointed as receiver who may
be influenced politically, and I would
also suggest that we ask the court
not to appoint the officer Of any other
