TWIN CITY TELEPHONE
STOCK OWNED LOCALLY
President MouIton Says 1t Is All Held
in the Two Cities.

The Twin City Telephone company
is now more than ever a Twin City
concern, as every dollar of both com
mon and preferred stock is held by
either Minneapolis or ST Paul peo-
pie.
This is the announcement that E.
ii. Moulton, of Minneapolis, president
of the company, makes upon his re-
turn from the East Mr. MouIton re-
turned to the city yesterday.
During his absence a report was cir
culated to the effect that the majority
stock had been purchased by Eastern
people.
When asked yesterday If this report
was true, Mr.. Moulton said:
No; emphatically not. All these re-
ports about some other company ac-
curing controlling or any other in
terest in our company are pure fabri-
cations. For some time past I have
had an option on all the stock held by
Chicago and Eastern holders. Lately
L have exercised my option and bought
this stock. and it now stands in the
names of Minneapolis or ST. Paul cap
ltallsts. In fact, every dollar of both
common and preferred stock is held by
either Minneapolis or ST. Paul neonIe
and the stocks will continue to be SO
held, as not a dollar of our holdings is
for sale.
The new company now has over
9,oeo subscribers in the two Cities"

REV. s. C. SMITH IS
CALLED TO LONDON
Answer Net to Be Given In
til His Visit Over There
in June.

Readers of The Globe will recall
the fact that some weeks ago the tel
egraph news, service announced that
Rev. S. G. Smith. of St Paul, had re-
ceived call to become the pastor of
the Westminster Congregational
church in London, worshiping in West
minister chapel, within a stones throw
of Buckingham palace.
Official notification of the call has
been received by Mr. Smith and his
reply sent to the officers of the Lon
don church. He wrote that he, could
give no definite answer until he had
fulfilled his engagement to preach for
them three times in June-which en-
gagement mas made before the call
was. extended. - - A, .-- -N
poAti a, meeting of the officers of the
Peoples church recently there. was. "a
unanimous protest against the pros
pectfVe' loss of their pastor and the
sentiment was that of the entire con-
gregation. F.+ rs ,t1cers - trf7
Mr.. Smith has preached for the
Westminster people on previous occa-
sions while abroad, having conducted
In all nearly dozen services in their
church. Within a few. days after the
London people had. received his ac-
ceptance of the invitation to supply
their pulpit in June they sent the ur-
gent invitation to him to become their
permanent pastor. He will not make
up his mind definitely until after his
visit in June. sz4Is ss9s X 45.?sg

NO BUILDING FOR
MANUFACTURERS
Appropriation for Structure
at State Fair Not Avail
able Till 1904.

1t appears after all that the manu-
facturers of the state will not have
their new building at the State Fair
grounds this year. The appropriation
of 100000 which was recommended by
the joint committee Of the legislature
was duly accepted by both houses yes
terday, but it was discovered by the
promoters of the measure that the
manufactures building item had been
placed in the 1904 list, instead of that
of 1903. This makes the appropriation
unavailable until next year, and some
temporary provision for the manufac-
turers displays will have to be made
before the fair of 1908. The members
of the Manufacturers association are
naturally very much disappointed over
this delay. There is, however, nothing
to be done about it now, and the state
fair board will do it's best to make
some provision for the accommodation
Of manufacturing exhibits at the fair
next September.
With the arrival of better weather,
work on, the fair grounds is being pros
ecuted with considerable activity, and
the various Improvements which are
going on under the direction of Secre-
tary Randall will make quite a change
In the appearance of the grounds when
the fair of this year opens. Each sea-
son, now, is adding to the beauty of
the fair grounds, as the trees are rapid
ly developing, and a great many little
touches are being given, such as the
planting of more trees and shrubs, the
opening of-new driyeways and walks,
and the improvement of the grass plats.
This year about two miles of artificial
stone walk will be put down and a
great deal of grading and leveling will
be done. The board has purchased
road grading machine, as well as a
road roller, and will be able to do
great amount of work of this class at
very little cost

HITS VALE WITH
BRASS KNUCKl ES
Andrew Finn Arrested for
Brutal Attack on an
Aged Man.

Andrew Finn, a man well known to
the police of the city, yesterday as
saulted with brass knuckles a stone
mason, Adolph Vale by name, in the
saloon at 222 Chestnut street, appar-
emily, in SO far as could be learned
from the spectators, without the slight
est provocation.
A police alarm was turned in and
when the wagon arrived on the scene
with Detective Murnane, Jailer
Hammes and Patrolmen Goven and
Morse, the injured man, Vale, was
found to be in a serious condition. He
was insensible, his long beard and the
entire front of his clothing being lit
orally saturated with blood The am
bulance removed him to the city hos
pital. Then the search for Finn COM
menced
After some time the fugitive was
found by Jailer Hammes hidden be-
tween two piles of lumber, lying fiat
upon the ground. When surrounded
he again showed fight with the
knuckles brandished over his head,
but a pair of pistols directed his way
quieted him down.
All the way to the station he was
guarded with guns, the officers know
ing him Of old as a desperate man.
Finn has served several terms in Still
water, but as nothing had been heard
from him lately it had been conclud-
ed that he had given over his wild
ways.
Vale is an elderly man, who follows
the avocation Of stone mason. For
some time he has been engaged at
Fort Smelling, but yesterday being pen
sion day, he laid off to spend it with
his friends. The hospital authorities
feel rather doubtful Of his recovery,
the back portion of his head being
so badly beaten that they fear the
brain is injured.

MAKE 1T OVER.
Change of Diet VIII Build an Entire
New Body.


People can be entirely made over by
a scientific course of food and drink.
Even old, chronic disease and heredi-
tary ailments are eliminated by the
wonderful processes of reconstruction
under modern methods of feeding.
An illustration is worth attention. A
lady writes: II feel this letter will ex-
coed all reasonable bounds, but how
can be brief when I have so much to
tell. First, about myself I inherited
nervous headaches and half invalid
condition. I had to give UP tea and
coffee, but some months ago a friend
insisted that l start on Postum Food
Coffee and Grape-Nats breakfast food
I prepared the coffee myself, care
fully according to directions on the
package, and used good cream. The
first cup seemed the most delicious
and satisfying drink had ever tasted
| drained it and filled it again. / was
impressed with the idea that it was
just what my starved nerves demand
ed. so used Postum and Grape Nuts
with good rich cream. Now. for about
four weeks l have been entirely free
from headaches and nervousness. and
am feeling unusually strong and well
There has also been a marked change
IN my appearance. I am AZ years old
and my hair is very white, but the
haggard, careworn look is entirely gone
from my face, my cheeks and bodv
have filled out, the face shows a fine
color, flesh firm and smooth, eyes clear
and lips red. My friends comment ON
the change and say look fifteen wears
younger. They are incredulous when T
tell them that skillful feeding on sci
ent1fic food like Grape Nuts and Pos
tum Food Coffee has wrought the
change
Now, as to my son. 26 years old
who has been afflicted with epilepsy
from infancy. I hardly dare tell the
facts. but he is here in the body to
prove them. He has had the best treat
ment In this country, all without per-
ceptlble benefit. His memory was
gradually growing weaker. AT the
time i started on Postum and Crane
Nuts he started also. and the change
in him has been so wonderful thai 7
can hardly describe 1t. Now he carries
himself erect instead of in his former
careless way, his eyes are clear and
bright, and, best of all, his memory Ia
growing stronger and stronger every
day until l am fairly overcome with
astoniShment. He shows a decision of
character quite unusual, and has late
ly expressed a strong desire to study
1 care not say what hopes his inn
proyement has raised.
1t is perfectly evident that hodias
ana brains can be rebuilt by skilIful
Feeding, and that means Postum Food
Coffee and Grape Nuts" Name er;ua,
