Special Council Meeting Held
This Afternoon to Ratify
Appointments
SELECTIONS ARE EXCELLENT
Mrs. C. J. scheeIer Named to Succeed
Mrs. A. M. Parker-Mrs. Merritt
Greene to Take the Position Vacated
by Mr.. Places Resisnation-Hon
Henry Stone to Replace Mr.. Benedict.

Mayor J.. B. Jones called a special
meeting of the council for this after
noon at 3 o'clock, to announce the
appointment of the new members of
library, to succeed the three members
resigned. The appointments of the
mayor are all excellent ones, and are
as follows: Mrs. G. j. Scheeler, to
succeed Mrs. A. M. Parker; Mrs. Mer-
rift Greene, to succeed Mr.. Woodbury.
l.. Place; Hon. Henry Stone, to sue
coed Mr.. f. r. Benedict The council
| ratified the appointments and the II
brary board is once more composed of
it's regular quota
Mayor Jones' action in calling the
meeting today, instead of waiting until
the adjourned meeting, set for the 9th
inst. was to settle the difficulty as soon
as possible. There seemed to be some
difference of opinion as to whether or
not the members who have resigned
are still members until their sue
cessors qualify. City Solicitor Van
trustees, like the members Of the coun-
Gil, hold until their successors qualify,
and other attorneys think otherwise.
The mayor, realizing that the appoint
ments would soon have to be an
nounced, decided to call special meet
ing and get the matter off his hands.
BY making the appointments now the
board can meet, and elect its new pres:-
dent and get down to business. The
August bills have not yet been al
lowed, because no quorum could be Sc
cured at the regular meeting on the
31st ult The appointments as an
nounced by Mayor Jones. and ratified
by the council, it is thought will gen
orally meet with public approval, as
each Of the new members is much in
terested in public work.
All of the council members We're pres
ent with the exception Of Mr.. Greene
and Mr.. Arnold. All expressed them
selves on the subject, and said that
they considered the mayor could not
have made three better selections Mr.
kreutzer. however, said that he thought
it too bad there wasn't more money in
the positions, SO that all the trustees
could be men, and the wrangling could
be done away with

DISAPPEARING.

An Old Chronic Coffee Symptom Gone.
1t is a fact that the old time enemy.
sick headache, is disappearing, as the
use of Postum Food Coffee in place OF
coffee becomes more widespread.
Sick headache is always caused by
improper food or drink, and coffee is the
most prominent cause Of sick head
aches.
In those families where Postum has
taken the place of coffee you will sell
dom find case of sick headache, nau-
sea or nervousness. II had sick head
ache frequently before beginning the
use of Postum, which was year ago
last June, but since have quit coffee
and use Postum I have had only one
spell.
my husband suffered SO greatly from
stomach trouble for two years, with
extreme weakness at times and smoth-
ering so badly that his friends generally
gave him up as consumptive. Two
physicians tried their skill but did not
help him. Yet in less than year since
he quit coffee and began the use of
Postum he is well. The smothering
spells are entirely gone, and he is back
again at his usual farm work, strong
and happy We both began to notice
a change for the better after we had
used Postum about month, and now
we would neither one Of us go without
it.
my husbands mother had stomach
trouble entirely different from my hus-
bands. She had had weak stomach for
thirty years, without being able to get
much help from medical treatment. At
ter she saw what Postum had done for
my husband, she was easily persuaded
to give up coffee and try Postum. and
the old cramps from which she used to
suffer so much are almost entirely gone
and her stomach Is getting stronger and
normal. ] could tell you of number
or other cases among my relatives and
but guess you will UNDER
stand from this what we think of POST
UNI in this part of the country.
"You could not persuade any of these
people that l have named to risk even
one cup of coffee now, since they have
seen what giving up coffee and drink
ing Postum will do toward getting back
health and happiness" This was writ
ten by a we'll known lady of Brick
Church, Tenn. Name given by Postum

conducted by the Railroad Y. NJ. c. A.
a short distance south of Union, was
brought to a close Thursday afternoon.
and the last of the campers returned
home on the evening train. The camps,
that of the juniors as we'll as the

able to spend portion OF the summer

DOUBLE SCHOOLS SIZE
ST. Mary's Institute to Be Twice Its
Present Size in Six Weeks Time
Basement Already Completed and In
stead of Waiting Year the Addition
Will Be Built at Once.

st. Mary's Institute Is to be increased
in size, and by the end Of six weeks
time will be just double in dimensions
what 1t is at present. Very Rev. Father
Lehman, rector of ST. Mary's, has de-
cided to build this year, instead Of
waiting another twelve months as
was the first intention. The new
basement, on which work was COM
menced a few weeks ago, with the
idea of covering for the winter and
using as a heating plant, is now COM
pleted, and the addition to the institute
will be rushed to an early compile
ton.
Rev. Lehman thought that with the
hospital to finish he would have enough
to look after this year. and therefore
did not contemplate constructing the
addition for another year. The room
is badly needed, however. altho two
years ago. when the institute was built
it was considered large enough for sew
eral years to come. The new addition
will be an exact duplicate in size OF
the present building, but will be ar
ranged differently The school will be
able to accommodate $50 more pupils
as result OF the change. On the
second floor of the new portion will be
constructed an auditorium, for lecture
and entertainment purposes, 63x37, with
a seating capacity of about $780,
The institute will open next Monday.
the pupils assisting at mass at $50.
Assignment of seats will be made and
plans laid for beginning work on Tues
day morning. Rev. Father George j.
Waring. assistant rector of ST Mary's.
Will be connected with the school this
year, and Will teach Latin and other
languages. Sister Mary Of the Sacred
Heart will also be an addition to the
corps, and will teach the higher grades
in place of Sister Loretta, who has
been assigned to duties at Cosgrove.
When the new addition to the insti-
tute is completed and ready for occu-
pancy new teachers will be be sent

fine bird 's-eye-view Of the stand and its
occupants as well as all those around
it. This is the only picture taken Of
the celebration where the whole crowd
is looking towards the camera.
"This reminds me of Nicollet avenue
Christmas eve," remarked Minneap-
oils visitor as he elbowed his wav
through the crowd on Main street in
the evening. It was Nicollet avenue
on small scale at any rate, but the
weather was warmer than on Christ
mas eve.
The display of fireworks was not what
the committee had figured on, but it
was the best that could be secured as
the big fire at Paris Murton's in Min
neapolis few days before the Fourth
destroyed most of the stock of fireworks
of that firm which had the order for
Princeton.
One of the features of the day that
all did not notice were two dummies
representing an old couple, and which
Mrs. Eaton fixed up in very life-like
manner and placed them on the veran-
da to the Security bank building. The
dummies looked just like an old man
and his wife who were enjoying them
selves watching the celebration from
their cool retreat.

A STORMY DAY.

Rain and Lightning Galore Last Thursday
Heavy Eownpour.
Last Thursday will go into record as
the stormiest and wettest day of the
season. 1t certainly has the record so
far for this season, and the weather
man will have to do some lively stunts
If he puts up any worse weather this
summer. Everybody was crying for
rain and they got it right in the neck
almost in buckets full. It started in
early in the day with some threatening
features and the heavens let loose the
tanks all day, and the rain did not
cease until after midnight Thursday.
There were some angry looking clouds
at many times, but no damage from
wind or hail was reported in this Sec
tion. The fall of rain amounted to seven
inches and six of these were registered
after dinner and during the evening.
There were several sharp exhibitions
of lightning and one bolt at midnight
awoke many sound-sleeping Prince
tonite.
During the evening Jack VanAlstein
lost a thoroughbred Shorthorn COW
which was struck by lightning. The
COW was valued at SIS.
At the farm of Nate Orion in Green
bush lightning struck weeder that
was leaning against a tree and the
machine was demolished.

and orderly behavior was the best thew

The crowd was very orderly one

the streets and the cooler did not have
an occupant all day or evening.
There were many who thought that a
mistake was made in putting the plat
form at the intersection of the two

day demonstrated that the idea was
not such bad one after all.
