DENCE I'm TRIAL OF Nj. j.
HANSON
IS CHARGED WITH ROBBERY
Alleged That He Held Up Miss
Gugler and Relieved Her
of Money and Gold
Ring.

Judge Jaggard and a jury yesterday
took up the trial Of M. J. Hanson, the
young man who is accused of having
robbed Miss Rose Gugler, while she was
walking along Cromwell avenue, in the
Midway district, on the evening of Dec
rs last.
The testimony of the young woman
was to the effect that the defendant seiz-
ed her as she was going along the street
and placing his right arm around her
waist and his left hand over her mouth
bent her backward and told her he would
kill her if she made any noise. Then he
took from her pocketbook, which was in
her muff, 10 cents in money, and demand
ed that she give him her watch. She
had no watch and he took gold ring
from her finger and then handing back
her muf went away. Charles o. Brews-
ter, stepfather of the young woman, tes-
tilted that she arrived home about $50
on the evening in question, and told him
she had been held up and robbed, and
wanted him to go out and see if he could
not find the man who robbed her. He
called neighbor named Harvey, and
they started with a rifle and a lantern.
They readily found the scene of the hold
up, and there found the footprints of
man in the snow. These footprints they
followed until they overlook Hanson on
University avenue. Hanson told them
that he was employed in an oil mill at
Minneapolis, and after some further
conversation they allowed him to go on
his way, but later they went to the oil
mill in Minneapolis and secured his ar
rest.
Mr.. Brewster was very sure that there
were no footprints in the snow at the
place where the hold-up occurred except
those of the man and those of Miss GU
gler. He followed the tracks directly I'M
til he overlook Hanson.

NIGHT OF THE BIG SHOW
ELkS' MINSTREL PERFORMANCE
FOR BENEFITN OF FUND
Indications That Building Will
BE Packed to the Doors
Everything in Read
mess.

This is the great day on which the
st. Paul Coliseum project is to be formal
ly inaugurated. Tonight at the AuditO-
rum on Eighth street the Elks will give
their great minstrel performance for the
benefit of the Coliseum fund. All day
yesterday the demand for tickets was
strong and steady, and there is every
reason to believe that when the curtain
goes up tonight the building will be
crowded. The new and enlarged stage
was completed yesterday, and all the
electric light arrangements finished SO
that tOnight's performance will be COM
plete in every detail. 1t should be re
membered that the show win be complete,
not a single feature Of the original per-
Torrance will be left out.
Before the curtain rises there will be
short talks by Gen. H. w. Childs, j. Ad-
am Bede, and Ross Clarke, on the Coils
cum project
The audience tonight will be taken as a
test of the popular sentiment for or
against a new Coliseum, which will give
the best of entertainments for the peo-
pie at nominal prices st. Paul is not
going to fall down in this important
matter The generosity of the Elks in
Offering to donate this entertainment to
the city is deserving Of a crowded house
Then the performance aside from the
purpose is worthy of a crowded house
The low price Of admission makes it pos
sble for every person in St. Paul to avail
themselves of the opportunity to enjoy a
high class minstrel show full of new,
bright and original features.
This is the last chance. Tickets can
be secured at any of the hotels or drug
stores or newspaper offices. If you for
get about it you will certainly miss it
miss not only the entertainment, but the
inspiration to be derived in behalf of
the great public enterprise to be initiated
tonight. =

GOVERNOR is HOME
STRENUOUS DUTY AT
CHICAGO
SAYS IT WAS A GREAT EVENT
Everybody, Including Prince Henry
Was Happy, Even if Governor
Did Call Him E'Mr.
Prince"

Gov. Van SAINT returned home yester-
day afternoon from his trip to Chicago
to meet Prince Henry. Several members
of the Minnesota contingent came with
him, but the bulk of them will not be
home until today, having remained in the
Windy City for sightseeing.
The governor came home feeling very
much pleased, and more than happy over
the conference with the prince.
We had a most royal time" said his
eXcellency, speaking of the trip. "Our
meeting with Prince Henry was an event
which we will never forget The prince
is a grand man and he welcomed US most
cordially and with but little formality.
He looks like a typical American, appears
very businesslike and has a most charm
ing personality. He impresses one as be-
ing the kind Of a person worth knowing,
a Whole-souled, jolly good fellow. He -
a creditable representative Of his brother
and Of the German nation. He seemed
really glad to see US all, and expressed
regret that he could not visit Minnesota,
but sent hearty greeting to the thousands
of his countrymen VINO live in this state.
Prince Henry's trip cannot but serve to
draw the two great nations closer to-
gether. He is receiving a splendid. well
come wherever he goes, and he is prov
ing himself worthy of it. The American
people can tell whether a man is made
of the right kind of stuff or not, and
they have certainly decided that the
prince is in all respects a worthy and
able gentleman.
yes, L observe that some of the pa
pers are attempting in spirit of jOcu-
larlty to make out that the meeting Of
our delegation with Prince Henry was
not as dignitted as it might have been
and that we violated some of the set
rules of established decOrum for such oc-
casiOns. At any rate, the prince seemed
very much pleased and we felt honored
in having the opportunity to meet him.
1t is true [ did call him Mr.. Prince but
that was only a slip Of the tongue, and
he took it gOOd-naturedly. In fact they
say that our party did a great deal to
relieve the occasion of its stiff formalA
ity.
Did I slap him on the back or poke
him in tn ribs? Well, l have been in pol
tics too long to deny anything that the
papers print. But it seems to me that
the diversity Of opinion expressed by the
reporters as to my alleged personal as
sault on his royal highness ought to be
answer enough. AT any rate. we meant
we'll and the prince knew it. He will not
forget that Minnesota is one Of the states
of the Union" julius Schmall, chief
clerk of the house, declares that Gov
Van SAINT did the hOnors of the occasion
with all due solemnity and fitting dig
nifty.

PLAIN PROOF.
WHAT THIS ST. PAUL MAN SAYS is
A MERE STATEMENT OF FACTS.

No one can have any reason for
dissenting from the particular and
proofs which follow for verification
of the same which is within easy
reach of every resident of st. Paul.
That DOan's Kidney Pills promptly
and effectualIy cure symptoms of
kidney complaint Is substantiated
not only in this particular case, but
by all who have given them a fair
trial. Testimony likewise shows
that you do not have to take them
indefinitely to be cured.
Mr.. Thos Campion, Of 819 La Fond
street, says: "Doan's kidney Pills pos
sess great merit, and their soothing and
healing properties quickly allay the irri-
tation Of inactivity of the kidneys. I was
considerably troubled with my kidneys
before I procured Doan's Kidney Pills at
F. NJ. Parker's drug store and took them.
They entirely freed me from all disturb
ances of the kidneys, and l gladly recon-
mend so valuable a remedy to others who
suffer from backache or kidney trouble"

READY FOR BREAKUP
RIVERMEN ARE PREPARING FOR
OPENING OF THE
SEASON
HEAVY YEAR rs EXPECTED
Unexpected River Business Pre-.
dicted for Coming SeasOn-Large
Log Cut Means Hard Work
for River Craft.

The warm weather Of last week, coupled
with the reports of big floods in the
East, have started people all along the
river to talking of the prospective break
up. Many of the older rivermen still
maintain that there will be a late spring,
and that the ice will not go out for some
time. They say that there will still be
considerable cold weather, although the
warm siege made their prediction look
rather shal1y.
A general opinion prevails, however,
that thUTe is to be much rain when the
breakup comes, and for this reason peO-
pie living along the river are making
preparations. Those who have property
which would be endangered by the ice
gOrging or by high water, are figuring
on how it can best be protected, and I'M
less the food should come very suddenly
it is not likely that much damage will
be done in this vicinity.
Rivermen are also making their predic-
tons with regard to the coming season
on the river Capt. V. A. Bigelow, Of
La Crosse, one of the best known river
men between Dubuque and st. Paul, pre-
diets that the coming season will be the
busiest which has been seen on the river
for many years. 1t is not so much OF
a prediction in the mind of Capt. Bige-

In Labor'S Field.

Retail Clerks International association
was instigated in st. Paul in 1890 It's
growth has been very rapid, greater than
any other individual trades union in the
same length of TIM.
Emma Lanphere, of Galesburg, Ill,
organizer Tor the association in January,
1900. She has covered the states of Hi
nois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania New
York, Iowa, Missouri Kentucky. Mchi-
gan and Wisconsin, and is now covering
Minnesota She finds the clerks through
out the country doing great work in
shortening their hours of labors, secur-
Of rest. good feeling exists at all
times between employer and employee
Miss Lanphere spent four months in the
city of Chicago. When she entered the
city there were only 125 members in good
standing, but by eNerting every effort
working day and night, she was reward
ed, and when she left the city she left
fourteen locals situated in as many To-
calties with from 1,500 to 1000 members
This city is behind in the movement
lnaSmuch as the saleSladieS are not
members of the association. It is the
desire of Miss Lanphere that at least
500 lady clerks unite with their fellow
clerks.
1t is a good thing for them fraternallv.
socially and financially and no one should
remain on the outside. 1t has been dem
onstrated that the clerks inside the as
soclatlon give better satisfaction to their
employers than those on the outside.
Employment bureaus are being estab-
hshed throughout the country for the
association where clerks out of employ
ment can send their names and employ
ers desiring help can appeal and know
that he will receive good competent
help.

low as a very apparent fact. Owing to
the extremely low water and unsatisfac-
tory conditions generally last season the
logs which were cut during the previous
winter remained on the drives, there not
being enough water to get them down
to the mills. There has been a large
cut this season, and the result will be
that there will practically be two sea-
sons work to be accomplished during the
coming summer.
1t is the opinion of Capt. Bigelow that
all available craft will be called into act
i've service, and that the rush will be
almost an unprecedented one. AS to the
passenger and general freight business
for the packets, this depends almost
upon other conditions than those which
affect the activity of the logging business.
1t is the opinion of many riYermen, how
ever, that in this line, too, the river will
show remarkable gain in 1902.
There was a report current last week
to the effect that ice had gone out be-
low La Crosse during the previous night.
IT was investigated and found to be I'M
true. Rivermen laughed at the idea Of
ice breaking up at this season of the year
and in explaining why it should not be so
some interesting facts were brought out.
First of these was that warm southern
winds and not rain is necessary to break
up the ice, and second, that it would be
impossible for the ice in this part Of
the river to go out before that below it.

MANY DON'T KNOW.
Lack of Right Food Is the Cause of
Sickness.


Sickness.
1t is hardly fair to blame the doctor
for not curing his patient when the pa
tient attempts to live on food that fur
nishes the wrong kind of nourishment.
" hen sickness comes on it is a pretty
good sign that the food is not keeping
the body up. There are thousands of
cases where a change in food alone has
brought the sick one out into a prime
condition of health
AS an illustration: A lady in Riverside
Cal, says: after ten years of service
as a teacher, during which time 1 suf-
fered three or four attacks of La Grippe
I finally found myself a physical wreck
Medical treatment would help my
strength and vitality temporarily, but
would always go back.
Husband and I moved to California in
the hopes that this genial cline would
restore me. 1 got better for little while
but in a few months became so weak and
debilitated that we were in despair.

friend changed my diet and began US.
ing Grape-Nuts and Postum Coffee. 1
used Grape-Nuts at two of my meals
each day, and have gained Is pounds in
weight and the increase in strength is
really wonderful.
1 am back to the healthy, good feelings
OF my girlhood days. I enjoy Postum
better than any beverage l have ever
used. My friends remark on my I'M
proved condition and 1 am impelled to

DIVORCE FOR MRS. ROBILLARD.
Fifth Suit Against DIR. s. j. RObH-
lard Is Successful.


After having four times abandoned di-
yorce proceedings, Mrs. Emma Gather
inc Robillard carried her fifth suit of
that character against DR.. SylVanus w.
Robillard to a finish yesterday in Judge
Bunn's court, and was granted a decree.
DR.. Robillard is a physician well known
in the First and Second wards, and, be-
sides having been invOluntarily brought
into public notice at various times, is
now a candidate for the Republican
nomination for the Office of mayor Of
the city. He made no appearance in the
divorce proceedings, and the hearing Of
the testimony on behalf of the plaintiff
consumed not quite a half hour
The allegations of complaint put for
ward by the plaintiff in the case are so
we'll known through the publication Of
the previous complaints, from time to
time, as they We're filed, that enumera-
ton of them at this time would be SUI
perfiuous. The causes of action, as set
forth We're, in brief, drunkenness and
cruelty. The couple were married Oct.
Is, 1899, and the plaintiff says that with
in six months afterward her husband be-
gan to drink to excess and to abuse her.
Specific charges along that line were re-
lated by Mrs. Robillard and Ruth An
derson, who was employed in their house
as domestic, and Mrs. Marie Paul and
Mrs. Minnie Foreman cOrroborated pOr
lions Of the details of Mrs Robillard's
story.
Mrs. Robillard was allowed $25 a month
