IS SYRUP IMPURE?
Health Commissioner Hall Thinks
Inspector Of Soda Water Foun-
tains May. Be Needed.
Says Public Health Would Be Con-
served by Periodic Examina-
lions of Liquids Served.

Health Commissioner P. M Hall limited
this morning that :tt might be found, ad-
visable before long to establish the Of
flee Of "soda water fountain Inspector
Whether the carbonated liquids that are
injected into the human stomach by way
of the soda fountain are injurious or not,
it is certain he says that there are fOun-
tains now doing business, in. the city which
offer great possibilities in the way Of dis
pensing the products OF impurity and I'M
cleanliness. n
The public ia not curious about the in
ternal arrangement Of a soda fountain. 1t
does not lift the Id from the complicated
device and peer INTO the mystery Of coils
and pockets from which come effervescing
mixtures. The customer swallows his
drink, pays his nickel or dime and asks
no questions that might embarrass the
white-aproned young man who concocts
the drink.
1.-THE public health would have justified
rigid inspection and regulation Of foun-
tains using made ,~sSrups long ago. said
DR.. Hall, ''and it may not be too late to
commence now, although don't know
that the matter is SO serious as to demand
special attention by itself. Our appro-
priation will not permit us to incur such
additional expense unless the crcum-
stances seem urgently to demand such
steps In the interests Of public safety.
There is no danger to be feared from
| the fountains in which pure syrups are
used and most Of the drug stores anC
other resorts which make a speciality o.
soda water take pains to give their foun.
tains frequent and thorough scourings.
Il believe it would be an excellent idee
for the state dairy and food commission
to follow the example of the Illinois pure
food commission and investigate the SAM

Flour City Concern VIII Move Into New
50 Quarters Nov. I.
The Flour City Ornamental Iron works
is preparing to leave its old plant 1107
Third street S, and will remove about
Nov. / to the half block on Twenty-sev-
enth street between Twenty seventh and
Twenty eighth avenues S, where it has
already established a foundry and pattern
shop.
The contract was let yesterday to the
Benson Milling company for a two-story
brick shop, 6Ox1SO, to be erected after
plans by KEGS & Colburn The build
ing will cost about $4,000.
Last year the company purchased a plat
Of ground 200X327 feet near the Minnehaha
car barn site. On this was built a foundry
and pattern shop, 50x150 feet In dimen-
sions. The new plant will cost entire with
the grounds about 100000.
In the new building on the second floor
will be established the machinery of the
present shop. On the first floor will be
the heavy new machinery to be purchased
at once. Here will be the ornamental iron
department, the finishing, fitting and
wrought iron work. 1t is expected that the
plant will compare with anything in the
country. 1t will be the largest one Of the
kind this side Of Chicago. The force Of
1875 hands will be increased gradually as
business demands until the full capacity
of $50 men is reached. The services Of
high priced men and we'll known 1ror
artists have been secured. L. G. Vollmer

MANY NEW HOUSES

The plat Of Walton Park, the district
over which Edmund G.. Walton made
such stir in real estate circles a year
ago by inaugurating an auction sale of
lots under a tent right on the ground,
shows a great many sales for cash. 1t
also reveals the fact that thirty-one
houses have been erected. The board of
education has just authorized the erec-
ton Of $4,000 schoolhouse in the dis
trict.
Considerable street grading has been
done and the outlines Of the sixteen blocks
making up the addition are assuming
definite shape. Mr.. Walton paid for the
grading Of Fremont from Thirty sixth
to Thirty eighth and advanced the money
for the watermains laid.
Altogether 100 lots have been sold with
in the year, chiefly near the Lyndale
avenue end Of the plat. Of the houses
erected none have cost less than $1,000
Upon several the owners have expended
$4,000. These are modern in every way
and although considerable distance from
the heart Of the city they have all the
comforts of a city home.

THE DEMON OF WORRY
Detroit News Tribune.

DeIrOlt news Tribune.
The demon of worry seems to invade almost
every home, and more frequently seeks out as
Its victim the mother of the family, with all
her cares and vexations. Worry leaves the
system exhausted, and the mind suffers loss
of vigor. The habit, however, may be cured,
if only one has the Will power to assert the
fact and then keep to it. There are many
practical ways In which this can be done.
One is to restrain the outward expression of
the feeling ITSELF We may not be able at
once to say Peace, be still,' to every anxiety
that wells up within US, but we can by effort
repress its exhibition. We need not pour out
our fancied woes into another's ear; we need
not carry a dismal countenance with which
to afflict our neighbors; we can at least
keep our worries within our own breasts and
az plant that is shut out from fresh air will
soon wither, so these anxieties and fears if
denied an outlet, will lose much Of their in
nate force. Let US encourage the cheerful
smile, the frank, clear look, the hearty hand
grasp, the cordial interest in those wo meet,
and while shedding brightness upon others,
we shall find many. OF our own worries slip
hing away even from our own anxious hearts.

A LMOsT twenty years ago the
IL Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul
Railway began lighting its trains
by electricity, and to-day it has the
most perfectly lighted trains in the
world. Three trains daily from the
Twin Cities have complete electric
plants furnishing electric light; cleo
trio fans for Sleeping cars, Dining
cars and Parlor cars.
The Day Express gives a ride Of
$50 miles along the bank Of the
Father of Waters, and crossing the
river at La Crosse the train traverses
the State of Wisconsin for 200 miles,
through the beautiful Summer Re-
sorts-Sparta, Kilbourn, Oconomo-
woo, Nashotah, Hartland, Pewaukee
and Milwaukee, reaching Chicago at
1925 Pm.
The Night Express leaves the
Twin Cities in the early evening,
arriving in Chicago at 700 A. M. in
time for all eastbound trains.
The Pioneer Limited, famous the
world over as the finest train on
earth, leaves the Twin Cities later in
the evening, arriving in Chicago at
$3.50 A. NJ. There is no train in the
world with equipment equaling that

About 10000 persons came into Mime

Minnesota Tobacco,

Said an attendant at a county exhibit
yesterday: "Well nigh every township in
the southern part Of the state grows to-
bacco in small quantities. Many farmers
grow the plant for their own use. They
cure it themselves. The Minnesota to-
bacco plant is large and the quality of
the leaf is excellent. If the smoking re-
suits are not always satisfactory, that Is
due to errors in the curing. Our farmers
have neither the skill nor the resources Of
the experts who blend and flavor tobacco
for the big factories" Tobacco is dis
played by five Of the thirteen counties
having exhibits at the fair. -.a. - -

FLAX is very good thing to raise. It

and 1t brings much higher price. The
seed costs less. The crop is ready to be
harvested a week or ten days before the
wheat crop. And flax seldom suffers
