EASILY PROVEN.
There Is Not the Slightest Necessity
for Leaving st. Paul to Look
for Proof.

The experience given below by this we'll
known citizen of st. Paul is easily proven.
The proof he offers for his convictions can
safely be left with the reader. 1t is a diff
,.fcult matter to describe an aching back
or any of the Ills caused by disordered
kidneys. How to cure the trouble is of
much more Importance, and the most ex-
acting resident of St. Paul cannot ask for
any better authority on this point than
that given by Mrs. 7. Mcmahon, of 1926
South Franklin street, who says: Had I
known of Doans Kidney Pills several
years ago I would have been spared much
suffering. My experience with this re-
markable remedy impels me to earnestly
recommend a trial by those in need of a
medicine for kidney complaint. Mr.. McMa-
hon procured 1t for me at F. M. Parker
drug store, corner of Wabasha and Fifth
streets, and in addition to relieving me
of kidney complaint Doan's Kidney Pills
rendered my health better than it had
been for three years prior to using them. -

ed there from 1867 until 1880, when he re-
moved to Minneapolis.
His first business venture in Minneap-
oils was the building of the Diamond saw

enterprises that he was to embark in
successfully afterwards. He next beeame
interested in the Minnesota Linseed Oil
company, at Tenth avenue south and
Third street, of which he was president

HEALTH OFFICERS CLASH.
State Board Complains of the Mime
apOIis Health Office Plan.

Mayor Gray, of Minneapolis, received a
letter from Dr. H. M. Bracken, secretary
of the state board of health yesterday
in which he complained that DR.. A. K.
Norton, the local health commissioner
does not obey the state law regarding
contagious and infectious diseases, and
report them to the state board promptly
The letter was written as a result of
the report of a case of smallpox at
GAINESVILLE. MINI. The young man suf-
fering from the disease there had been in
Minneapolis nursing his brother at IS
Western avenue. DR.. Bracken telephoned
to the Minneapolis health office and was
Informed that the case was one of chick

self that the GAINESVILLE case was actually
smallpox
DR.. Bracken sent one of the leading
physicians of ST. Paul. who has seen a
large number of smallpox patients, to
GAINESVILLE, and he took some photographs
of the case. He unheSitatingiy declared
the case to be smallpox, and said that
the young man was very sick.
Dr. Bracken says that while the health
Officials of all the other cities of the state
and of all the towns are very prosopt
in giving notice, the Minneapolis health
officials either do not report the appear
ance of the disease, or fall to report it
until two or three weeks after 1t should
have been reported He is Of the opinion
that DR.. Norton and his assistants are
not as vigilant as they should be, and
that they do not take sufficient notice of
cases which are supposed to be chicken
poX cases.
Mayor Gray called DR.. Norton before
him yesterday, after he had received the
letter, and held a conference at the Com

the sheriff at this critical point in the de-
alterations. While outside he saw a
wagon go by with the dead body of some
one who had been murdered during the
night at Redwood Falls Upon returning
to the court room he communicated his
information to the jury, which circum-
stance caused the jurors to again discuss
the case, the result being disagreement,
the jury standing 8 to 8. The jury was
no doubt powerfully influenced by the
fact that another murder had been COM
mitted the day before.
Eat the next term of court Rose was
tried again and was again defended by
Wellington. Another disagreement en-
sued, the majority Of the jury favoring
acquittal. AT the third term of court he
was again brought to trial. The day be-
fore the trial Wellington was called to

went up to try the case for the firm.

allow the sheriff to summon 100 men as a

chosen by the county clique then In
