HOWE.R .SHOW KXzzZB ITS
ENJOYED AT HOSPI7ALS
Thousands of Fragrant Blossoms Are Carried to the
Bedsides Of the Shnt-in Snferers-Floaer Shoe
Has a Brilliant Close

The beauty and fragrance of T e
Q ur n a s Midsummer Flower
Show We're today transferred from the
Eighth street armory to the hos
pitfalls turnout the city. This after
noon there is not a hospital ward
or sickroom that is not bower
OF f1oWers the choicest that Minneapo-
lis gardens and greenhouses have been
able to produce. With the closing Of
the flower show ins blaze of glory
last evening, the wealth of bloom be-
came, under the established rules, the
property of those in charge of the
show for general distribution among
the hospitals. This distribution has
been going on all day under the direc-
ton of G. M. Hoag, who took first
prize for his display of gladioli. AS
a result, thousands of dozens of flow
and sunshine into the hearts and
minds of the afflicted, whose only
glimpse of the beauties of nature gen
orally is such as may be seen from the
hospital windows.
A Brilliant Finish.
Last nights attendance at the flower
show was the largest of any of the
evenings, in spite Of the intense heat,
which was whiting to both flowers and
visitors Those present We're fully re-
paid for their exertion, for the display
was more extensive than on any pre-
vious night. A special and successful
effort was made to make the last even
ing one of such enjoyment as would
be long remembered. A pleasing pro-
gram was rendered by The Journal
NeWsboys' band, between the numbers
Of which, selections were given by a
Victor concert monograph.
The heat was a great encourage
ment to the sale of light refreshments
offered by ladies of the Y. P. S. C, e.
of Park Avenue Congregational
church, and the refreshment tables
We're we'll filled thruout the evening
by those seeking lemonade and ice
cream.
Among the leading attractions last
evening were the beautiful designs ex-
hlblted by florists. Holm & Olson,
St. Paul, displayed a shield of white
dahl1as, some five feet square, in the
center of which was 1.-THE horn of plen-
ty'-made Of purple dahlias-from
which gracefully bent a wealth of
blossoms.
Almost as elaborate, was a shin de-
sign shown by r. j. Mendenhal1. Upon
sea of blue asters, rode a full-rigged
snip, loaded with carnations and fever
few. White asters covered the hull,
While graceful smilax made up the
rigging. Out from the deck of the
ship swung several tiny lifeboats of
red sweetpeas. From the ships bow
hung the sign, "Mendenhall ships
flowers all over the northwest"
E. Maggie & Sons of Minneapolis had
a dainty exhibit, a chariot, covered
within and without with asters, drawn
by six pure white doves.

MUCH WHISKY MADE HERE
HOW PLAIN All oHoL is CON
VERIFIED INTORARE OLD BOUR-
BON-PROFITABLE BUSINESS.

It is asserted that three-fourths Of
the whisky drunk in Minneapolis is
manufactured in this city. If the i'm
biber should really investigate, he
would learn that the genuine" bour-
bon, which he exhibits to his friends
as having been aged in some Ken
lucky colonel's cobwebbed cellar, is
really but a few weeks old, is pro-
duced from alcohol pure and simple,
and is SO blended as to possess the
appearance and taste Of age.
For 500 any one may purchase a
government stamp which will allow
him to rectify 500 barrels Of spirits,
ana Tor $500 he may make as many
barrels as he wishes. The process is
SO simple and the expense so low
compared with the profits, that Uncle
Sam IS kept busy dealing out stamps.
There was an example Of how the
new rectlfying firms spring up in the
case Of Well-knoWn firm recently.
The firm had been accommodating prof
It's for some time, and the employees
decided that they would like to be

In a body, purchased a stamp and
started business for themselves with
capital of $4,000.
Alcohol is purchased in large guam
titles and is reduced from $50 to 80
or 80 proof by adding water, and is
then dumped into watts and a color
ing and mixing blend added. The
rectifers stamp is affixed and a
gage is taken by the government in
spector.
For some reason the public refuses
to buy liquors bearing only the recti-
fier's stamp. But this little difficult
ty is easily overcome. Wholesale
stamps are given by the government
free of charge, and, before the rec
tifiers stamp is dry, the wholesale
stamp is affixed and good old rye
is ready for the consumer.

WAR HELPS OUR MARKET
Holland Is Getting Less Wheat and
Flour from Russia,


Flour from Russia.
G. de Waal Of Amsterdam, Holland
IS at the West hotel, having come to-
Minneapolis from the st. Louis fair to
see the worlds greatest flour manu-
Iac.urlng city. He is a flour broker,
ana therefore especially interested in
the great Minneapolis mills.
Holland uses great deal of Min
neapolls Hour said Mr.. Waal. "Verv
little of the patent comes into Hol-
land, but large quantity of the
cheaper grades are imported. Hol-
land uses good deal of Hungarian
and Russian manufactured flour as a
rule, but the war now interferes with
the shipment of Russian flour and
is acting as something of a boom
for the purchase Of the Min
neapolis product, in spite Of the pres
ent high market here. The fame of
Minneapolis flour is known all over
Europe by flour importers, and it is
therefore no wonder I am especially
interested in seeing the sights in the
flour city,
Mr.. Waal intends to return to ST.
Louis from here, before starting on
his return trip. II want to
see some more Of the worlds great
est fair explains Mr.. Waal. Il Wis
tied the exposition at Paris, but it can
not be compared for moment with
the magnificence of the st. Louis ex-
position, either in scope or grandeur"

A GREAT ORGAN
FOR AUDITORIUM
1T WILL BE FIFTH LARGEST IN
UNITED STATES.
A Fourth or Solo Manual Has Been
Added to the Equipment of the
Great Instrument, Which VIII Be
Complete in Every Detail.

AS musical center, Minneapolis
standing is to be advanced material
ly by the installation in the Audito-
rum of the fifth greatest organ Of
west of Chicago. In other words,
there are only four organs superior
to the one which the Northwestern
National Life Insurance company has
ordered for the new music hall. A
fourth or solo manual has been added
to the equipment Of the great instru-
ment since the original plan was
made. This manual has a greater
wind pressure and wider range of
coupling than the other manuals, and
enables the organist to produce at
will a solo effect from any instrument
represented by the various pipes.
Hamlin Hunt, the Plymouth church
organist, has revised the specifica-
tons, and it will be the good fortune
Of Minneapolis to own as perfect an
organ as any of it's class.
w. f. Bechtel, president Of the in
surance company, has received the
specifications of the organ to be built
by the Kimball company. The scale
Of manuals in &C to cccc, sixty-one
notes, and scale Of pedals, CCC to G,
thirty-tWo notes.
The general qualities of large con-
cert organ are divided into four
classifcations in tone coloring, many
of them being excellent reproductions
of orchestral instruments. They are
found In this organ in great variety,
distributed thru the five separate or
gans as follows: Organ tone, six
teen registers; string tone, eleven reg
listers; flute tone, seventeen registers;
reed tone, eleven registers
All of the pipes Of the swell organ,
choir organ and solo organ are in
closed in separate swell boxes, where
by crescendo and diminuendo effects
are produced by means of balanced
foot pedals. Every known device for
assisting the organist in making rapid
shifts, and placing all com binations
in complete control are embodied in
this instrument. The immense bellows
will have capacity of over 5000
cubic feet of air a minute, and will be
operated by an electric motor Of eight
horsepower.
This organ is the only four manual
and pedal organ northwest of Chi
cago and will compare favorably with
any Of the limited number Of very
large concert organs in the United
States.
One of the. most remarkable
features is the introduction of a du-
pick pneumatic action, whereby com
pressed air is made to operate the
valves in different directions without
the use OF springs, levers, weights or
other mechanical devices. The key
action will be as light as that of a
piano and the repetition quicker.
Some of the accessories Of this great
organ will be swell tremolo, solo
tremolo, crescendo Indicator, tempo
lever and indicator, pedal check, choir
tremolo, wind indicator, re-wind and
motor starter.
The great organ list Of the country
is as follows:

SOAKED HIM. ONCE
Street Car Conductor Shows Himself
an Expert at Punching.

For twenty-five blocks a conductor
on the First avenue line bore the in
suits of drunken passenger yester-
day. When the car reached Twenty
second street, amidst the vociferous
approval Of the people on the car, the
outraged conductor put the man off.
The disturber threw his arms around
the conductors neck, dragging him off
the car to the ground, but he refused
to strike a drunken man and tried to
make his way back to the platform.
The struggle continued for several
minutes and the crowd yelled, Soak
him."
The drunken man began to rain
blows on the conductors face. Sud-
denly there was a blow that dropped
the unruly passenger like a log and
the conductor quietly took his place on
the car.
BY this time half a dozen cars had
been stopped and the passengers had
alighted. At first no one offered to
carry the unconscious man to the
sidewalk. Fortunately there was a
doctor present and he succeeded in
restoring the man to consciousness.

ferent varieties of garden flowers. and
cross and crescent floral design made
entirely of white verbena blossoms
The j. F. Wilcox display from Old
Orchard was also much admired, be-
ing especially prominent for it's beauti-
full cosmos, perennial phlox, zinnias,
coreopsis, salpiglosis and great mari
colds.
The Greatest Show Yet.
The judges assert that the improve
ment in the flower show this year over
that Of last, is very marked in all
varieties. The number Of exhibitors
in some classes were dozen times
more than in the same classes a year
ago. The garden flowers especially
showed advancement in horticulture,
being larger and more perfect.
The judges, unsolicited, prepared
the following statement at the conclu-
sion of their work last evening:
We, the judges of TIL 9 10 urn rs
Midsummer Flower Show, hereby express
our high appreciation of the public
spirited and excellent work Of H. L. Pat
they, representing The Journal, in
getting up the flower show, and wish to
hereby testify to the excellence Of the
whole display. We believe the show Will
do much to advance floral horticulture in
Minneapolis.

Candidates for Stale Senator.

We have refrained from saying any,
uhiDg about Charles w. Scott, the
democratic candidate for senator
against Senator Parks, because we
thought he had a pretty hard row to
hoe anyway; but it seems that Mr..
Scott wants his record as farmer and
Grand Army man placed prominently
before 1.-The public. consequently we
have looked it up and find that he is
not near so good farmer as Senator
Parks; most of his farming being done
in the interest of electric railroads
while be is resident Of Warsaw.
His army record shows that he en-
listed in Company II. 135th Indlar
May %, 1864 and was discharged Sept.
20. 1864 after serving four months.
He enlisted again April u, 1865,
when the war was virtually ended and
was discharged June %, 1865. thus
serving all told, I'll days, after most
of the fighting was over.
Senator Parks was not in the army.
He was only eight years old when the
war commenced. His record of -four
years in the state senate is his best
recommendation for reelection.
