PRENDERGAST WANTS
PENSION ACT ENDORSED
Declares 1t Is Wrong to Deny Home In
mates Anything.

Comrade M. R. Prendergast disturbed
the serenity Of the occasion at the public
installation of Acker post officials last
evening by introducing resolutions urging
the passage of S. f. No. f. the bill in
troduced in the legislature by Senator
G!ertsen repeating that portion Of the law
which allows the trustees of the Soldiers
Home to take part Of the pensions of the
inmates
/, Comrade Prendergast, speaking of his
resolutions, declared the trustees confs-
Gated the pensions of the inmates and this
mad been going On for years. While Gov.
Van SAINT had recommended the appropri-
alton of $4,000 for a monument to be
erected on a Southern battlefield he ia
vored spending the money on the living
rather than on monuments for the dead,
mates all their pension money.
Comrades j.. j. McCardy and B. F.
Doran raised the point that the resolu-
lions should be considered at the next
meeting of the post and not at a public
installation, and Commander Bartlett
held the point well taken.
President fowler, of the board of trus-
tees, made short speech denying that
the pensions Of the inmates were confis-
Gated. The trustees took the ground
that the inmates of the home ought to
contribute to their own support Three
fourthS of the states with homes did the
same thing and those that did not follow
this plan charged for things which at the
Minnesota home were given free to the
inma ties.
Following the installation addresses
ment Commander Strakweather and S. H.
fowler. Acker post, w. R. c., also in
stalled its officers. Mrs Alice Y, Board
man conducted the installation.

with an absolute guarantee to cure or no

treating rupture and puts to flight a
horde Of truss vendors, Quacks, specialists
and dangerous operations.
It combines not only the features of
perfect retention, but 1t sends into the
rupturaf opening steady current of cleo
tricity that Thoroughly enlivens the muscu-
lar tissue, and there is an almost instan-
famous activity of nutrition and circula-
ton that heals up the ruptural opening
quickly and permanently. 1t is having
most remarkable success in curing rup-
ture. Old men, ruptured for years and
years, have been cured in a surprisingly
short time SO they can walk or work
and exercise their muscles without fear
of the rupture breaking out afresh.

Val. J. Rothschild, of the firm of
Rothschild Bros, is another ST. Paul
real estate man who believes 1903 will
be busy year in city dirt deals.
"Of course this is our very dullest time
Of the year, said Mr.. Rothschild, yet
we have received inquiries every day
regarding city property, and the de-
mand is something never before known
at this time of the year. The demand
is largely for good property, too, the
purchasers desiring well improved
property. Negotiations are being made
for vacant lots in the business district
which have not been sought in years,
and some of the largest deals in ten
years will be made before spring. Prop
erty will be higher this year than last,
but even at the higher prices, there is
reason to believe that the demand viii
be greater"

surpass it in the volume of business
transacted.
r. M. Newport believes that more
business will be transacted during the
present year than has been done in
st. Paul since the boom days.
1.-The prospects for an active market
in ST. Paul real estate are most fiatter-
ing" said Mr.. Newport. 1.-THE condi-
tons of the real estate market have
been getting better for some time. The
revival of the demand for city real
estate commenced in 1901, and has been
on the increase since that time. While
the business transacted during 1901 was
satisfactory, when compared with pre-
ceding years. the volume of this kind
of business cared for last year was
much larger, and there is every reason
to believe that 1903 will show a pro-
portionate increase over 1902.
1.-THE real estate market, especially
city property, has an upward tendency,
and the prices which will prevail this
year will be higher than for years past.
The demand for city property is al
ready asserting itself. While this is
the dull season of the year, we are
receiving many inquiries regarding st.
Paul real estate, and the demand will
be heavy for improved property this
year.
Demand Is for Residence Lots.
What is the nature of the demand :?
1t is largely for lots upon which to build
homes, for ready built homes and nota.
bly, for accommodations for large
wholesale concerns, many of which
have outgrown their present quarters.
The demand for the latter class of
property is surprising, and indicates
that there will be many improvements
made in st. PAU the coming year.
There is also a noticeable demand
for vacant lots and acres, property
which has long been a drug on the
market. The land is now being quiet
ly picked UP by the sagacious and long
headed capitalists for purposes of spec
ulation. Men who have money to in
vest believe now fS the time to buy,
and there is little deGbt but that they
