CHANGES IN "LUNN0N"
Captain Percy Walton, After Two
Years Absence, Hardly Knew
the Dear Old Place. -

The ole home amt what it used to be- -
said Captain Percy R. Walton yesterday
on his return from "Lunnon." He spent a
three months vacation in London and
was perfectly willing te'return to a city
in which he was acquainted. Some OF his
friends of younger days had been killed on
the Transvaal, some were on the Cape.
others had married and moved away, and
London had changed SO rapidly that Min
neapolis seemed more like home.
Although he was across only two years
ago, Captain Walton noticed great
changes. The Strand has been widened,
in places thrice, leaving the old churches
standing in the middle of the street. Ave
nues are being cut through in all parts
of the city, and last Of all Seven Dials is
to be violated by streets which will cut
the historic place into stnithereens.
Old Newgate was in process of den1oli-
ton and Captain Walton reports that it
was even worse than our Minneapolis
lookup. He was amazed at the prices
paid for relics. The foot irons which held
Jack Shepard were sold at G25 each.
Mr.. Walton found a dearth Of business
in England and in Paris and even in New
York. In London the whole trouble Is
assigned "to the Transvaal muss." II
is fact that 100000 unemployed native
Britishers are to be found many Of them
reserves returned from the South African
war who find their former positions taker
by foreigners. Thus London has become
a foreign city. The tendency in Londo1
is to syndicate all lines Of business.

BIG SHACK GOING
St. Paul Pulling Down Expensive and
Ugly Building Which Has Served

ST. Paul Pulling Down Expensive and
Ugly Building Which Has Served
as an Auditorium.
The destruction of the old Auditorium
building on Eighth street, between Min
nesota and Cedar streets, st. Paul, began
this morning. Bids for the material in
the structure were opened yesterday, and
the contract was awarded to George
Knocke and Fred c. ~Norlander, who Of
fered $1,700. The building cost $4,000,
the value of the lumber used being SIS, 900.
Fully 100000 more has been expended in
repairing, improving and maintaining what
for seventeen years has been the only
structure in St. Paul available for great
public gatherings. At it's best the Audi
forum was a big shed, ugly, fiimsy~ and
ready to burn at the drop Of match
Yet now, that the movement for a St..
Paul coliseum has failed. the capital will
be unable to extend any shelter to large
convention.
The building was erected about 1886, by
J. w. Cooper, H. Knox Taylor, D. r.
Noyes and others, that Fay B. Mills might
have quarters for evangelistic meetings.
Subsequently the owners Of the Audito-
rum failed to manage it profitably as a
place for public gatherings A receiver
was appointed. In 1896 the structure was
secured for use in connection with the
G. A. r. encampment of that year. After
the encampme the Grand Army COM
mittee bought the Auditorium for $1,000.
During two years the committee leased
the building to the Commercial club for
81 a year, and in 1898 the property went
back to the committee. Since then the
city council has appropriated annually
the amount Of any deficit in the revenue
needed to maintain the Auditorium. Three
years ago c. P. Slime, as secretary Of the
Commercial club bought the old struc
ture for $1,000, and has continued to man
age it. The Auditorium has seen notable
assemblies. Among the speakers on Its
platform have been Mckinley, Bryan
Roosevelt. On the same platform Samue

Scion is only 5 years old. But he an

When it comes to his own meals, Scion

smiled pleasantly as he answered so in

ROBBED ON A TRAIN
An Iowa Tourist Is Touched for All His
Money by Pick
pockets 't.-

A quartet of train crooks struck good
thing in the person of William Mundt, a
farmer of Mickoer, Iowa, yesterday. When
they parted company Mundt was minus
$3.50 cash, a draft for $50 on a Sumner,
Iowa bank, and q $1,000 certificate of de-
post issued by the same bank.
Mundt. in company with r. E. Creager,
land agent at Sumner, Iowa, was on
the Great Northern flyer on his way to
Willow Creek, Wash, to purchase land.
Mundt exhibited his roll while purchasing
a ticket at the union depot in St. Paul.
While the train was standing in the de-
pot in this city four men busted them
selves with the steam pipes in. the seat
coupled by the Iowans. When the train
was pulling out, the quartet made a hur-
ried exit, and Mundt missed his wallet.
The train was stopped and the case re-
ported to the police. Neither Mundt nor
Creager give any description of the
men and the police are without clue.

PAPERHANGERS' PLAN
They Think Houses In Which There Ha
Been Contaglon Should Be
Repapered

The Paperhangers' union last evening
considered the advisability OF asking the
city council to enact an ordinance re-
uuiring house owners to scrape and re-
paper the walls of houses in which con-
tagious diseases have existed. It is be-
lieved that the health Of the city would
be greatly benefited by such an ordinance
and it is thought that Health Commits
sioner P. M. Hall will support the move
ment. Such a law is now enforced in
London, Christiania and Stockholm.
The Meat Cutters union has plans on
foot through which it is hoped to union
ize every shop in the city.
The Fresco Painters union will dis
cuss drawing and other matters Of inter
est to the trade at a meeting tomorrow
evening at Alexander's hall.

A MILD CASE

Of Contagious Blood Poison never exis-
ted. It is always bad, though sometimes
no external symptoms of the disease APP
pear for long time.
Because the disease is slow in devel-
oping does not indicate that the case is
4 mild one, for the poisonous virus at
work in the blood and system may be
spending its force upon some internal
vital organ while you are looking for ex-
ternal signs. Contagious Blood Poison
does not affect all alike. In most cases
the first little sore is quickly followed by
painful swellings in the gtoius, red
eruption upon the body, sores or ulcers
in the mouth and throat, unsight1y copper
colored b1otches, loss of hair and eye
brows and other symptoms of this 1niser-
able disease. When the poison is thus
fighting its way to the surface, exposing
the disease in all its hideousness, we call
it bad case; but Contagious Blood Poi
son, whether working internally or exter-
nally, is dangerous, treacherous disease
S. SIS. is the only remedy that cures
Contagious Blood Poison thoroughly and
permanently. It is an antidote for the
deadly virus that produces the awful
eruptions, sores and ulcers, and destroys
the bones. Mercury and Potash dry up
the skin eruptions, but In SO doing drive
the poison further into the system, where
it slurnbers for time, but comes back
again with redoub1ed fury.

been used successfully for years in treat
