TAG SCHEME AGAIN
ALDERMAN HUNT WANTS S25
TAX ON STREET
CARS
AN ORDINANCE IS PREPARED
Eleventh Ward Alderman VIII In
trOduce 1t at Next Meeting OF
BOard-OppOsition VIII
BE Lively.

At the request Of Alderman Hunt, of
the Eleventh ward, the legal department
has prepared an ordinance which will
increase the annual tax that the st. Paul
Street Railway company pays into the
city treasury for each car it has in SER
vice.
By the original ordinance, under which
the company was granted a franchise to
operate in st. Paul, the annual tax was
placed at $40 for each car, but Mr. Hunt s
ordinance will increase the amount to
80 car. This is the fee paid in Mime
apolis, and is quite a revenue producer
for that city.
In addition to increasing the tax per
car the ordinance also insists that each
car in use shall bear a tag, the same
being evidence that the tax has been
paid. The tag scheme Mr.. Hunt at
tempted to have Endorsed before by the
council, but it was refused by the as
sembly. The board of aldermen voted for
It. 'O'0U -'-
Because the original ordinance names
$40 as the license fee, there are many
VINO think the council has no power to
increase it, but the legal department
thinks otherwise. 1t is known that the
company will have the ordinance tested
In the courts before it win submit. The
ordinance was to have been introduced
at the meeting of the board of aldermen
last evening, but owing to the fact that
there was not a quorum present, it was
not presented by Mr.. Hunt

SECOND TRIAL BEGINS.
Esther Barrett and Jacob Bachman
Versus CITY Railway

In Judge Kelly's court the second jury
trial of the case of Esther NJ. Barrett,
and Jacob Bachmann against the ST.
Paul City Railway company is in pro-
gress.
The plaintiffs base their claim against
the railway company upon an allegation
that they were without just cause eject
ed from street car late one night and
upon complaint of the conductor Of the
car were placed under arrest and
conveyed from the corner of
Seventh and Wabasha streets to the CEN
trail police station in a patrol wagon.
The car was one belonging to one of the
Rice street and West St. Paul lines, and
the plaintiffs had boarded it somewhere
on the st. Paul side of the river to go
to the West St. Paul terminus of that
particular line. Owing to a wreck the
car was unable to proceed to the end of
the line to which it properly belonged,
and took the other line. The plaintiffs
rather than walk to their destination re-
manned on the car until it made another
complete trip to the5 Rice street end and
back and on the return refused to pay
another fare.
The first trial resulted in verdict for
the plaintiff, which the court held to be
excessive Miss Barrett being awarded
$500 and Bachman 500.

GOLDEN BROWN
The Color Sought in coree.

When a person has been shown that
change in food or drink can make and
keep one well 1t is thing not likely to
be forgotten.
Coffee is a killer for many people,
and of course, when left off, the user
will probably regain degree of health
without any outside help but when
Postum Food Coffee is used the return to
health is much more rapid, for Postum
is a distinct and well defined heaIlh
builder with delicious coffee flavor and
a beautiful deep brown color that chang
es to golden brown when cream is added
A Chicago man, Peter G. Hoist, at 315
Englewood Ave, writes; Reading in
the paper the other day something about
Postum Cereal, it awoke in me remin-
iscenu vein.
About five years ago, when I was a
miserable dyspeptic, I first heard of Post
UNI Cereal Coffee and put it to a careful
test.
I had been afflicted for years with
chronic dyspepsia, and all the medicines
1 had tried were in vain. One by one I
had to leave them off and was in despair
as to what I should do for relief
My first taste of Postum was about ten
Q clock one morning. / did not dare to
take cream with it, for knew what the
result would be with my stomach That
is, L thought 1 did, have since learned
THAT cream can De taken In POSTUM even
by bad dyspeptics, but 1 had my first
taste with only hot water in it and a lit
tie sugar. The second cup followed the
first, and a third followed the second. I
took my departure munching some dry
grains of Postum, as I was determined
to investigate its effects thoroughly.
mat day I had no dinner, and expert
enced no distressing sensations, on the
contrary, felt as though my appetite had
been appeased.
The next day began to use Postum
regularly and before the first package
had been entirely used I discovered the
most encouraging symptoms. The dys-
per STA and headaches which 1 had been
subject to daily entirely disappeared, also
the distressing vomiting spells The
bowels improved steadily and regularly.
l ate cautiously, but was sustained by
the Postum Coffee. After the first pack
age tried it with milk, then with cream
without experiencing the least inconven-
fence. OF course was delighted and the
future looked bright From that first
experience up to date my health has
been splendid. 1 have increased in
weight from 139 pounds to 1877 pounds. and
can digest anything I desire. I can saw
honestly and cheerfully that 1 would rec
ommend Postum to anyone suffering tha
fortunes of dyspepsia"

letter was read from the union of Mar

not to visit that city. The union has
demanded a wage scale Of $2,S31a on the
1st of April. There are more carpenters
now in that city than can ind employ

union will be successful in enforcing the
increased scale, as well as the eight-hour
cay, if there is no great influx of out
side carpenters. The receipts of the meet

PURE FOOD REPORT
DAIRY DEPARTMENTS ANALYSIS
OF LINSEED OIL AND JEL-
LIES AND JAMS
OIL SAMPLES MOSTLY LEGAL
Large Per Cent of Je1lies Not Up to
Standard - Home Manufacturers
Generally Within the Re-
quirements of Law,

The dairy and food department has just
completed a large number of analyses
of samples taken by inspectors. The most
important Of these and the largest num-
Der are Of linseed oil, Of which over leo
samples have been tested. About SO per
cent Of the samples submitted have been
found to be legal, a trifie over IL per cent
being impure and not up to the required
standard. The result is very gratifying,
especially so in comparison with the con-
ditions which existed few years ago.
Some few outside manufacturers, who
are apparently in ignorance of the fact
THAI Minnesota has a law prohibiting the
sale of adulterated Unseen oil, continue
to ship illegal oil into the state. Most
Of the home manufacturers, however, are
apparently using every endeavor to con-
form to the state requirements. In one
or two instances illegal oil, which it is
claimed was made by the state concerns,
has been discovered in the stores of re-
tailers. In such instances, where numer-
Gus other samples made by the same firm
have been tested and found to fully con-
form to the standard, it is assumed that
either the retailer doctored the oil after
receiving it, or else that some outside
concern used the package of a renable
firm and shipped illegal oil in it. The
department is using every effort to pre-
vent the latter practice. Already two
firms have been forced to give up the
practice Of shipping an inferior article
IN the package bearing the stamps of
reliable firms. This evil, however, is not
very common one.
The department says that retailers are
reasonably safe in purchasing oil from
state manufacturers, and ordinarily will
run no risk Of prosecution if they are
certain the oil is made in Minnesota or
by reliable company having Offices in
the state.
An analysis Of a large number Of Jams
and samples of jams and jellies shows that
there are number Of brands which
90 not conform to the state laws Of the
last batch OF samples tested over "A per
cent We're adulterated. Under the stat
utes, unless the jams are manufactured
from pure fruit juices and granuIated
sugar. they must bear a label, ''Mixed
and Adulterated, conspicuously display
ed On the package. Many Chicago and
outside jobhers who seek to sell their
goods in this state do not conform to
the law in this respect. Retailers who
purchase jams and jellies from these
sources run considerable risk Of prose-
cution unless they first have the goods
anaIyzed and ascertain definitely that thew
are pure within the meaning Of the Min
nesota law. The home jobbers. being
subject to inspection by the department
are very careful to have their goods fully
up to a legal standard in every Way.

HONEYMOON HOME SOLD.
Famous Residence OF Mrs. Grace Smell Cof-
fin Sold to Mrs Florence Hammond.

Famous Residence OF Mrs. Grace Smell Cof-
fin Sold to Mrs Florence Hammond.
Grace Smell Coffin widow. famous
as divorce and equally famous as
the daughter of the murdered Chicago
millionaire, Amos J. Smell, is no long
er resident of the town of Salem in
this county, as this morning a deed
was placed on record in the Office of
the register of deeds by which "Hon-
eymoon Home" the famous country
home of Mrs. Coffin was sold to Flor
ence E. Hammond, of the city of Chi
cago.
There has been much of sentiment
and romance in the life of Grace S.
Coffin and much of it had been associ-
ated with her home on Cross lake, and
with its sale the last interest of Keno
sha in the famous woman will proba-
bly, depart.
Mrs. Coffin received $4,000 for the
beautiful country seat and it is proba-
bic that the house will never be opened
on such luxurious scale again. The
pictures will be removed to little fiat
IN Chicago and the other furniture
will probably be sold to the new owner
of the house or turned over to the
clamorous creditors to supply them
with something on which they can
realize sufficient to pay the accounts
alleged to be due to them from Mrs.
Coffin.
Honeymoon Home was the last of
the treasures of Mrs. Coffin and with
the sale Of her country home she has
planned to retire from the gay world
and settle down in Chicago. The deed
emphasizes the fact that Mrs. Coffin
has again separated from her hus band !,
Frank N. Coffin, making the fourth
divorce for the couple in the past few
years. Like the moth and the candle
Coffin is still seeking reconciliation
and his name appears as one of the
witnesses to the deed which conveys
the homestead to Mrs. Hammond.
The Hammonds will take possession
of the property at once and as the
deed was made the last day of
August it is probable that they will
have prior claim to the claim of the
creditors. The sale of the home will
make it possible for Mrs. Coffin to pay
all the Indebtedness against her and
start life anew.
The departure of Mrs. Coffin from
Salem will cause quite stir among
the residents of the little village. She
has always been favorite with the
farmers in the neighborhood, and they
seem to have considered it an honor to
serve her.

MISS ERICKSON ELECTED.

Former Kenosha High School Teacher
Elected Principal at Atlantic Iowa.
Miss Martina Erricks on will leave
tomorrow for Atlantic, Iowa, to ac-
cept the position as Principal of the
schools of that city to which she has
been elected by the Board of Educa-
ton. The appointment is splendid
one, and Miss Erickson will have full
charge of the High school work in the
town.
After having resigned her work as
teacher in mathematics in the Keno
sha schools Miss Erickson planned to
spend several years in study, but the
position offered to her at Atlantic was
such an advancement over her former
one that she decided to accept it.
For several years Miss Erickson
was one of the best known teachers in
the public schools, and her department
was always favorite with the pupils.
She goes to her new field of labor with
the best wishes of many friends in Ke-
