Contagious Blood Poison has been ap.
Propriately called the curse of mankind.
1t is the one disease that physicians can
not cure; their mercurial aud potash
remedies only bottle up the poison in
the system, to surely break forth in n
more viruient form, resulting in total

ing for him to take his place.
After debate which occu pied
the greater part of last week, the
Senate by vote of AZ to 80, passed
the Teller concurrent resolution.
The resolution is practical re-
affirmation of that of Stanley Mat
thews in 1878, and is as follows:
That all Of the bonds of tho
United States issued, or authorized
to be Issued, under the said acts of
Congress bereinbefore recited, are
payable, principal and interest, at
the option of the government of
the United States, in silver dollars
Of the coinage of the United States,
containing 4124 grains each Of
standard silver; and that to restore
TO its coinage such silver coins as u
legal tender in payment of said
bonds, principal and interest, is
not in violation Of the public faith
nor in deregation of the rights OF
public creditors.
All efforts to amend the resolu-
ton were voted down by maiorities
ranging from 5 to 30, Mr.. Lodges
gold standard substitute being de-
featsd by the latter majority. The
vote on the Lodge amendment was:
Ayes, "a; nays, SO.
This does not look like the silver
issue was dead by any means, and
the deluded gold bug that thinks
the fight for the white metal was
settled in the campaign of 90 will
be badly fooled, as the free silver
forces are low lin.ng mp again
stronger than ever.
Here is an interesting item from
the State Journal, the leading Re-
publican paper of this State:
1t IS now announced that Amer.
lean coal can be delivered at Rio
JaDeTio at less cost than English
coal. There il q great market fol-
coal at Rio, both for steamships
and in the melting of manganese
ore. OF which there is fine deposit
within easy transportation.
III the above is true, and we do
not doubt it, what under the canopy

STATE FAIR POULTRY SHOW
Year by Year Has Seen the Exhibit,
Growing.

Year by Year Has Seen the Exhibit
Growing.
The poultry show at the coming state
fair will be boomer" Last year it
outgrew all it's old clothes, and moved
into permanent quarters in the dining
hall building. and when that proved
too small, a big tent was erected out
side, and that, too, was packed full
with exhibits. The first building put
up for poultry on the fair grounds.
and then regarded as ample, was 7x9
affair, about the right size for an
ordinary farm chicken COOP At that
time chickens were counted rather in
significant for a great state fair to
consider. Now the building in which
they are shown is 75x120 feet and ac-
commodities 1000 birds. The building
could not be better adapted to its pur-
pose. 1t has a great skylight in the
center and the sides are glass, so that
the light is ample and the ventilation
good.
The prospects are that the poultry
show will be larger than last year.
The correspondence thus far Is heavier,
and the entries already made are far
ahead Of any previous fair. Mr.. Par
lin is assigning space on the principle
of first come, first served" as he al
ways has done. All entries will close
on Saturday night before fair week,
and those not in at that date will be
barred from exhibition for premiums.
In fact. this will be the rule in every
department, as the managers mean to
have the fair in good running order
bright and early Monday morning.

crease Over the Totals of Last
Year.
State Auditor Dunn has received an
abstract Of the assessed valuation of
property in st. Paul and Ramsey
county. The personal property valua-
tion in the county and city has in
creased 1851, SO4 over last year, and the
realty has decreased in value $685., 1882,
leaving net increase Of $152, 472. The
assessed valuation for 1898 is as fol:
lows: Personal property. st. Paul. s15,
29a,02 Ramsey county, outside of the
city limits, 1921, 1913; total, $15.579, 74S;
real estate, in St. Paul. $7S.523. O15;
Ramsey county. outside of city limits,
$5,347, 494. Total value Of personal and
real property in city and county,
$97, 450.257
These figures in detail show some
curious facts.
There, are only nine horses one year
old or less reported for taxation, five
of two years. although when it comes
to three-year-olds there are 5,155, val
ued at over 5000, 00O
Calves, too, show the same scarcity,
although there are 5000 cows in the
county taxed on a valuation Of S64, $40.
There is only one sheep in the entire
n,
said to be worth IS.
Although it is popularity believed that
there are not less than 10000 cyclists in
the city, the total number Of wagons,
carriages, bicycles and sleighs reported
for taxation is but 7,776 The total val
ration is $455,217, an average of $5S. 81,
which Is reasonably high.
There are 6,912 sewing machines re-
ported and it seems that barely per
cent OF the census population carry
watches or own clocks, as only 6.225 are
reported for taxation.
The city has people that own 513 me-
lodeons and organs and 4,O3S pianos.

gate at $341745, an average of SS4 63

ed for. the new shops would be built
here, Mr.. Dean said he could not au-
thorftat1vely state. He advised, how
ever, that committee from the coun-
Gil and the corporation attorney of the
city could be more fully informed on
this question by consulting with Mr..
Grover, Of the legal department of the
road.
w. H. Lightner, president Of the
chamber of commerce, said that body
felt a great anxiety about the proper
protection of the city.
"A friction had grown up between the
Great Northern and the city. and it
was the desire to have this removed.
1t was necessary that action be taken
by the council to insure the location
mere of the proposed shops.
During his term in the council he
had noticed that the roads which did
nothing for the city were always ask
ing for concessions He had never
known OF the Great Northern asking
for anything from the city.
The Great Northern had always been
run ON a business plan. and had asked
for nothing from the city. 1t always
paid for what 1t got. The road was
the best thing the city had, and the
desire Of the citizens was to keep what
the city had and gain something more
If possible. 1t was to the interest Of
the city to go much farther for the
Great Northern road than for any of
the other roads.
st. Paul was the railroad center Of
the state. and it would be the railroads
which would be Of benefit to st. Paul.
There was no more loyal citizen Of
ST. Paul than Mr.. Hill, and it was he,
operating through the Great Northern
road, that resulted in the Northern Pa
cific road locating it's terminal in st.
Paul rather than in Minneapolis. The
council of St Paul should protect the
interests of the city, but it should also
protect the rights and future prosper
ity of the citizens and the city
The Broadway bridge would not help
St Paul, neither would it benefit the
property in the district in lower town.
The property in the vicinity of the pro-
posed bridge was valuable for railroad
buildings and improvements, and as
such was of more value than though
the bridge was built
Aid. Shepard suggested that Mr.
Thompson's suggestion as to a lack of
dignity had been misunderstood, nor
had the city made any concessions to
the Milwaukee road. He moved that
committee of three from each body,
with the chairman and the city attor-
ney, be appointed to consider the COM
munication of the committee and con-
fer with the railroad officials.
The motion was adopted without dis
sent.
Mr.. Dean apologized for anything he
might have said that might have been
taken extensively by any one present.
Assemblyman Thompson replied that
there would be no offense taken on his
part. When asked to know about
things it was because he wanted to
know, and he did not care if his ques-
tions did bring out hot shot. That
was just what he wanted.
So the olive branch waved over the

TEN EYCK ESTATE CASH.
District Court Orders That the Bank

The Judges of the district court of the Sec
ond judicial district sat en- banc yester-
day in proceeding which, on the face of it,
involved no large issues. The question
actually involved was a judicial determination
Of the Identification of moneys deposited by
the clerk of the district court in the Bank
of Minnesota. The question did not actually
transpire in the hearing, but it was under
stood that it was involved.
When Clerk Rogers took the office of Clerk
of the court he succeeded to some trust funds
that had been ex oflcio In the possession of
his predecessor. Some of these funds have
been deposited in the Bank Of Minnesota
and some in the Merchants National Among
the funds he'd was the sum of 4756, belong
ing to the Ten Eyck estate.
Recently one Of the heirs came of age and
asked that the money be paid to him. The
proposition before the court was the fssu-
ance on an order in the case Of Kate Fou-
gera VS.. Florence A. Wilkes ct al Horace
L. Ten Eyck was really the party in inter-
