are selling liquor without paying license in
various parts of the CITY,
The matter was brought to the attention
OF the mayor by an organization on Robert
street, which, under the name of the Column
bia Social club, has been dispensing to it's
members liquor and beer, but charging the
regulation price for the liquids.
When the police investigated the club they
were confronted with duly certified articles
OF incorporation showing that the club had
been in existence since 1892, and with a list
OF the members. The dues paid by mem
bers on initiation were 81, and after that
rooms
Mayor Kiefer has the idea that the major
ity Of the social clubs are nothing more nor
less than places where liquor Is sold with
out the payment Of any license, and he in
tends to close them up If the law and the
courts, will back him up in this action.
Speaking of the matter yesterday, the mayor
said: 1T Is shame the way some of the
social clubs are conducted. They are nothing
more or less than places where members OF
the organizations and others can secure
liquor at regulation prices, and the city de-
rives no revenue from them. I intend to
close them up, and not show any partiality."
Asked as to whether the crusade would ex-
tend to such organizations as the Minnesota
and Commercial clubs, his honor replied
IF the Minnesota and Commercial clubs
are violating the law and selling. liquor
without license, I shall see that these as
we'll as all other clubs are treated impartially
according to the laws and the charter"
The mayor has ideas of his own as 10
what constitutes club, and speaking along
this line expressed the opinion that any num-
Der Of gentlemen who formed a club and
partook Of wines and liquors in the club
rooms were not violating the law. When
organizations, however, purchased liquors and
dispensed them to members and others, charg-
ing the same prices as in saloons and made
a business of It, then it was very different
matter, and such resorts or clubs should
secure "a license from the city. The mat
ter will be referred to the corporation attor-
ney for an opinion before any action IS taken
by the mayor or the police department.

ST. Paul Merchants Will DecOrat

One of the features Of the coming week,
and by no means the least attractive will
be the display made by a number OF the
wholesale and jobbing houses in the way OF

the merchants have been busy for the past

yesterday the work of putting the decora-

COL. VAN DUE E is ILL
COMMANDER OF THE FOURTEENTH
HOME ON SICK LEAVE

DIR. Goodrich, Who Is Attending Him,
Thinks That He VIII BE Better
in a Day or Two - This Is His
Third Attack Since His Regiment
Has Been Chartered at Camp
Thomas.
Col. Edward NJ. Van Duzee Jr., of
the Fourteenth regiment, arrived from
Knoxville, Tenn, last evening, on sick
leave. He is very I'll with malaria, and
as soon as he arrived at his home, in
Ashland avenue, near Grotto street, he
retired
The fact that Col Van Duzee was
about to come home was known to only
a few persons. But that he was sick
was not known to his own family until
last night. Early in the evening Mrs.
Van Duzee received a telegram from
friend in Chicago asking that some
one meet Col. Van Duzee upon his ar
rival at the union depot, as he was
very sick and unable to travel alone,
Mrs. Van DuZee notified her husbands
parents, and his brother, Frederick n.
Van Duzee, went to the union depot to
meet the 1910 train on the Milwaukee.
The train was half an hour late, and
as soon as possible Col. Van Duzee ap-
very glad to see his brother. Col Van
Duzee looked so pale and thin that no
one about the depot recognized him.
A carriage was waiting and Col. Van
Duzee was driven speedily to his home
There he found his family and DR.. A.
r. Goodrich. After an exchange Of
greetings Col Van DuZee retired, and
no one was allowed to talk to him.
DR.. Goodrich said he thought the COL
onel would be better in a day or two,
but 1T would be some time before he
would be in condition to do any
thing.
Col. Van Duzee has had two previous
attacks OF illness since going to Chick
amauga, but his family thought he was
fully recovered. They did not know he
was coming home on account Of Ill
ness, but thought 1t was because Of the
sickness Of his daughter, who is now.

Residence building Is Showing q
Very HealthfuI Revival, and the
Buildings Going Up Arc of the
Better CIass--A Budget of Chatty
Talks With Dealers Simmered
Down.
There appear to be any number Of
parties inquiring as to the prices Of
real property, but the sales are not as
numerous as the inquiries. The deal
ers admit that there is a movement IN
the market, but it is among the small
buyers, who are looking for a safe In
Vestment and a place to build home.
There Is no speculation in dirt, and in
order to make sale the purchaser has
to have bottom prices and the offer
must be bargain in every sense Of the
word.
A sure indication that there is a
movement in the realty market is the
large number of residences which are
being put up in various parts of the
city. The report Of the building In
spector for the past month shows that
there is marked activity in building,
the figures for August this year being
double those Of the corresponding
month in 1897.
OF the 108 permits issued over forty
were for residences ranging in cost
from $1,000 to $4,000, and all Of these
structures will be built this fall. There
is an increased demand for rentals, and
agents who are almost exclusively en-
gagged in the renting business are kept
busy. The demand is principally for
small houses of six and seven rooms,
renting for about $40 or $25 per month,
and firms having this class Of houses
find no trouble in securing tenants.
All Of the dealers express confidence
In the outlook, and a number of them
are convinced that within the next
six months the market will be more
active than at any time in the past i've
years.
c.. s. Heron-There is a chance TO
make an occasional sale where four
months ago a sale was impossible.
Prices are very low, and now is the
time to make an investment. The de-
mand is principally confined to those
who are looking for home. The out
look is the most encouraging that 1t
has been for months. The demand is
not confined to any particular section
Of the city, and, as a rule, the sales are
for cash.
Andrew Stolpestad-The real estate
market looks much better. People are
inquiring, but the buyers are not aS
numerous as they might be. Prices
are very low, and the demand seems
to be not confined to any one part Of
the city. There is no speculation, and
the sales are small investors. Dealers
having anything in a bargain find
ready sales, but at prices which are
extremely low.
H. J. Deuel., of Bayard, Deuel. & Co.
There is a better feeling among real
estate dealers. The past week has
been rather quiet, owing to the extreme
hot weather. The purchasing and in
quiry appear to be principally among
workingmen who are looking for IN
improved property for homes. More
Of this class of buyers are seen than
ever before. This is an indication OF
better times. The condition of st. Paul
today is much better than in the past
ten years, and investments in real es-
tate are certain to bring good returns
in the future.
w. c. Read-Sales are more nurner-
Gus, but the considerations are small,
and the purchasers mostly Of the mid
die class, who are looking for safe IN
Vestments and homes.

DINED AT SILVER LAKE.
Delightful Outing of the Commercial
Club CycIers.

The Commercial Cyclers yesterday
enjoyed an outing at Silver lake as
the guests Of z. Reiff, where they were
entertained during the afternoon and
early evening by Mr.. Reiff and family.
The Misses Reiff sent a boutonniere to
the villa of the Commercial club YES
terday afternoon for each person taxi
Ing the run. Earnest Reiff met the
club at the lake and conducted them
to his spacious summer villa on the
shores OF the lake. Mr.. Reiff has an
elegant home and the Landscape sur
rounding 1T has been artisticaly laid
out and decorated with almost everv
variety Of flowers and many tropicaI
plants. The cyclers were accorded a
reception only In keeping with the
beauty Of the place, and spent a most
pleasant afternoon.
The cycle path ends at Mr.. Reirf's
grounds, and despite the head wind
which the party encountered, the party
successfully completed the ten-miIe
run.
The guests were served with supper
at p. M, returning at p. M. arriv-
ing in st. Paul an hour later.
