Twin City Financial Institutions
Have Large Available Balances
in the East-NO Embar-
rasment Likely.

AS the close of the threshing season
draws near and the movement of the
grain begins, there comes an accompany
ing activity in financial circles.
For week or two after the close of
the season, there is, especially in the
West, a large demand for currency with
Which to pay help off. This is drawn main
ly from St. Paul and Minneapolis banks
but Is not of such proportions as to Gre
ate any commotion in the money market
The financial condition of the Twin
Cities Is such that this year there will
be no perceptible furry when it comes
to handling the crops, even taking into
consideration the fact that they are
larger than usual.
The system under which they are
handled and the money furnished is the
same as all other business Is carried on
the year around. The banks of st. Paul
and Minneapolis, as well as all other
cities, have deposits in New York and
Chicago banks Of such proportions as to
be able to meet all demands.
OF course, there will be larger ex-
change than during the ordinary run of
business for a number of weeks, but
Secretary Gage, who Is a. banker him.
self and knows how to handle these
things, has had printed 8 quantity of
notes Of small denominations such as are
used in the handling of wheat and cot
ton, and these are ready to be exchanged
on demand for the gold which the New
York banks will tender in exchange for
currency to be shipped to the West.
The money that will be used in hand
ling the crops will be New York money
only inasmuch as 1t is drawn from New
York banks, but it Is really the reserve
deposit that the Western banks keep on
hand from day to day, and through the
medium Of the clearing house the local
banks are Strengthened out every day.
The financial condition of ST. Paul and
Minneapolis Is such that the banks are
able to keep sufficient reserve in the
East to handle these emergencies. From
this time on until the crops are out of
the way the local banks will be transfer
ring their reserve from New York to
Chicago and this, of course, will cause
shortage in New York and may result
in some momentary embarrassment, but
nothing farther.
Very little actual currency Is used in
the check and draft system is used. as 1t
is in all ordinary channels of business,
but the persons using drafts and checks
must have the money or credit to make
good their demands and this, of course,
necessitates an increase of currency in
the West.
There will be an unusually big business
done in the banks this fall during the
movement of the crops, but the financial
conditions are such that no embarrass-
ment whatever will be felt in the local
money market.

MORE BOXES OF GOLD,
And Many Greenbacks.

To secure additional information di-
rectly from the people, it is proposed to
send little boxes of gold and greenbacks
to persons who write the most interest
ing, detailed, and truthful descriptions
of their experience on the following
topics:
l. How have you been affected by cot
fee drinking and by changing from coffee
to Postum.
2. Do you know anyone who has been
driven away from Postum because it
came to the table weak and characterless
al the first trial?
g. Did you set such d person right re-
garding the easy way to make Postum
clear, black, and with a crisp, rich taste?
4. Have you ever found a better way
to make it than to use four heaping tea
spoonfuls TO the pint of water, let stand
on stove until real boiling begins, then
note the clock and allow it to continue
easy boiling full fifteen minutes from
that time, stirring down occasionally? "a
piece of butter about the size of navy
bean placed in the pot will prevent boil
ing over.
5. Give names and account of those you
know to have been cured or helped in
health by the dismissal of coffee and the
daily use of Postum Food Coffee in its
place.
6. Write names and addresses of twen-
ty friends whom you believe would be
benefited by leaving off coffee (Your

10th and November 10th, 1901, by three
judges, not members of the Postum

ing $40 gold piece sent to each of the
five best writer's, a box containing a IS
gold piece to each of the 20 next best
writer's, 81 greenback to each of the 100
next best, and 81 greenback to each of
the 200 next best writer's, making cash
prizes distributed to 325 persons.
Almost every one interested in pure
food and drink is willing to have their
name and letter appear in the papers, for
such help as 1t may offer to the human
race. However, request to omit name
will be respected.
Every friend of Postum Is urged to
write and each letter will be held in high
esteem by the company, as an evidence
OF such friendship, while the little boxes
OF gold and envelopes of money will
reach many modest writer's whose plain
and sensible letters contain the facts de-
sired, although the sender may have but
small faith in winning at the time of
writing

MAKES ' ! HEROIC RESCUE
POLICEMAN PETERSON SAVES
SAVES CHLLD'S LIFE
Grand Avenue Car Was About to
Strike the Child When the
officer Snatched 1t
From Danger.


Officer Peterson, who stands at the
corner of Wabasha and Seventh streets,
made a daring rescue of a little three
year-old girl and saved her from being
run over by a Grand avenue car at Sew
enth and Wabasha streets shortly before
o'clock yesterday morning. The name
of the child could not be learned, as the
excited mother hurried away with it as
soon as the officer had it in place of
safety. According to the story, the child
in some way became separated from its
mother as she was crossing the street,
and ran in front of Grand avenue car
that was just in the act of turning the
corner. Officer Peterson saw the danger
the little girl was in, and, with a quick
move, grabbed the child and placed his
foot on the fender of the moving car so
that it would not be caught in under
the fender
The terror-strcken mother was given
her child and Immediately proceeded on
her way without giving her name.

FORT MADE OF FRUIT
MINNESOTA WILL HAVE IMPOSING
ADDITION TO BUFFALO
DISPLAY
EQUAL TO THE BUTTER MODEL
HI. p. Hall Says This State VIII
Have Two of the Most striIk-
ing Exhibits at the
Pan-American.

When the Minnesota Board of Mana
gers for the Pan-American exposition
visited the state fair on Tuesday thew
were greatly impressed with the wonder
ful fru1t-piece erected by j. M Under
wood, the proprietor of the celebrated
Jewell nursery at Lake City, MINI.
Mr. Nordeen. who designed and con-
structed the piece, is connected with Mr..
Underwood's nursery, and the production
shows that he is a genius. The design
Is that of revolving fort with port holes
from which cannons protrude The base
Is occupied by shelves covered with fruit
and artistically arranged mirrors, and
from the center rises a high, round tur
ret. The face of the turret is closely
covered with apples. The cannons pro-
truding from the port holes are made of
crab apples, and at the end of each can
non white dove is perched.
The space occupied Is 24xA feet and
doorway admits grown person within
the base, where there is desk and
chairs and a business Office The struc-
ture Is seventeen feet high.
The managers no sooner saw this pro-
ductfon than they resolved to secure 1t,
II possible. Buffalo was wired, and the
necessary space secured in the great hor-
ticultural building at the exposition.
Last evening they closed a contract with
Mr. Underwood to reproduce the model
at the exposition at Buffalo. This Is no
small task. The present fruit cannot be
used, and it takes seventy bushels Of
apples to construct the pile. These will
have to be replenished in part almost
daily, so that it will take 200 bushels to
erect and. keep up the model until No
vember 1, when the exposition closes. Tne
frame will be taken to Buffalo in sec
lions, and there covered with new fruit
under the direction of Mr.. Nordeen, the
original designer. 1t will require, trans
portation and all, about two weeks time,
but for the last five weeks of the expo
sition Minnesota will have the most not
able horticultural exhibit at the Pan
American exposition.
A refrigerator car has been chartered
to carry the necessary fruit and frame
work, and is expected to leave st. Paul
Monday. It will require the services Of
half a dozen men for a week to erect
it after it's arrival, but once in place it
will be as much of triumph for Mime
sofa as the model of the state capitol in
butter. The two combined will make
Minnesota the most talked-of state in the
Union.

scented the court with two kilograms, one
from Chief of Police O'Neill, asking that
he be held by all means, and another from
Secretary of State James A. Rose, of IL

On objection from Attorney Lawler,
who is representing the prisoner, both tel
egrams were ruled out as evidence. The
kilograms, however, figured to the extent
that another continuance was ordered by
Judge Orr. The court fixed McNichols
bail at $3.50, but no one seemed eager
to advance the sum and the prisoner was
remanded back to Jail.
The reQuisition papers, which arrived
yesterday from Illinois, are now in the
hands of Gov. Van SAINT, and it is thought
he will honor them without delay. The
prisoners friends say they have not yet
given up hope, and will still continue to
fight.

charge of bribing a juror hanging over
his head, is also a fugitive from Justice,
