RACE MEETING WILL
BE WELL ADVERTISED
State Fair Increases Amount of Purses
to $4,000.

Secretary e, w. Randall, Of the Min
nesOta state fair, was in Chicago this
week attending the annual meeting of
the Great Western Circuit association.
The dates for the Minnesota state fair
had already been fixed, so the principal
interest which Mr.. Randall had in the
meeting as representative of Mime
sofa was in the general arrangements
for advertising the race meetings of
the present year. A large amount Of
advertising will be done by the associa-
ton, in which the name and address
of the secretary of the Minnesota state
fair will appear, together with the date
of the meeting and amount of purses
offered. This will bring the Minnesota
state fair conspicuously before every
horseman Of the United States and
Canada.
The amount of purses offered by the
Minnesota fair has been increased this
year by $1,000, bringing the total Of
ferings up to an even $4,000. This
increase was effected by the addition
of another race on Friday afternoon.
AT this time it has been customary to
give one race and devote considerable
time to the cattle parade, but it was
concluded this year to add another
event for the day to the racing pro-
gramme. This total of 800 Is by
far the largest offering Of any state fair
In the country and compares very IA
vorably with the total Of purses Of
fered by any racing association
throughout the United States.
The board Of managers of the state
fair will hold a meeting next Tuesday
at 10 o'clock at the Merchants hotel
in st. Paul. There is much business
before the board this year, and the
members are exhibiting a desire to keep
up with the needs of the fair, and, in
fact, to dispose of as much work at the
earliest possible moment as they can.

NO JOKE
But 90 lbs. of Solid Flesh.

about a person who weighed ninety
pounds and increased her weight to 1870
pounds Cor double) in one year by
quitting coffee and drinking Postum
Coffee, every one who read it would
say, There's a joke behind that some
where"
There is a well known lady in Cora
opolis, Pa, who actually made this
gain in weight as the direct result Of
leaving off coffee and taking up Pos.
.tum Food Coffee. 1t was a very ear
nest matter and far from joke for her.
Her gain in general health kept pace
with the increase in weight.
She says: For many years I suf-
fered with stomach arrangement and
violent and oft-recurring headaches. 1t
was not an unusual thing for our fam
lily of four persons to use two and one
half to three pounds of coffee a week.
I was suspicious that my troubles
were due to coffee, but as I did not
like tea or cocoa or chocolate there
seemed no palatable hot drink for me
to take at my meals.
"Then it was / heard of Postum
and decided to try it. / was just con-
valescing from a serious illness and
was very weak and emaciated. I know
it sounds like what people would call
fish story but I actually went from
one year. All the sallowness disap-
peared from my skin and 1 now carry
my forty years very lightly indeed.
My change in health is so great that
many of my friends make a joke Of it
to this day, but my nerves are good
and l am happy and contented so can
afford to laugh with them.
II first learned of Postum from a
family in Indianapolis, where 1 saw the
mother of six children emerge from
invalidism to perfect health on Postum
after leaving off coffee. Soon after
that another friend made a remarka able
recovery by dropping coffee and using
Postum, and when I moved here a
neighbor shook off coffee and nervous
dyspepsia and built himself UP on
the food drink. So heard of one af-
ter another, until 1 don't know how

covered from disease of some sort by

the signatures in the Endorsement can
make no difference.
In the case against Edmund and his
bondsmen, the treasurer had given two
bonds which We're Identical, except that
certain sureties did not appear upon
both bonds. The bonds were joint and
several and for this reason demurrer
was entered upon the ground that sew
eral causes Of action are improperly
united. The point was declared not
well taken, because as to the sureties
who signed both bonds, there was only
one cause Of action and to those who
did not it was immaterial"
The syllabus follows:
The sureties upon a county auditors
bond are liable for the acts of his
deputy who fraudulently issues ficti-
tious redemption and refundment or
derS for the purpose of obtaining mon
ey from the county treasurer by means
thereof.
The action against the sureties may
be brought by the county, in the name
of the board Of county commissioners.

In the case of former County Audi

surety bond from the National Surety
company for $4,000. Suits We're COM

bondsmen for $5,S6922, and against
Johnson and his surety for 1895.
In his decision, Justice Lewis SAYS:
Auditor Was Responsible.
There actions were properly
| brought in the name of the board of
county commissioners. The auditor s
bond was in the usual form, condition
ed upon the faithful discharge of the
duties of his office. The deputy au-
ditor was appointed by the auditor
and authorized to sign all papers and
do all things that the county auditors
| themselves might do. The auditor was
responsible for the acts of his deputy.
He could revoke the deputys appoint
ment at any time and might require
! bonds of him conditioned upon the
! faithful performance of his duties. The
acts of these deputies, within the color
! of official duties are the acts of the
auditor. The bond was executed in
| the contemplation of the statute, and,
though the auditor might have called
for bonds from his deputy, such omis-
sion on his part does not change the
liability of the sureties on his bond.
1.-THE duty of issuing the redemption
| refunding orders in proper cases was
imposed by law upon the auditor The
deputy took advantage of the oppor-
tunity afforded by reason of his office
and issued fraudulent instead Of valid
ones. Bourne was indicted for the is
suing of such orders and convicted on
the theory that his acts were official
