Do Away With

The People Have Right to Know
What Thew Are Eating.

Too great attention cannot be given
to the food we eat. The health of our
families depends on this food Are we
TO submit to the atrocities of the food
adulterators? No. We must have laws
to protect us and those laws must be
enforced.
1t is Of interest to note that there is
at least one article of food about which
We can know everything This is
Malta Vita, popularity called "The Per-
feet Food, the pure, all-grain prod
ust, in which every element of food
necessary to the proper nutrition of
the human body is found.
In the manufacture Of Malta Vita
the whole of the wheat is thoroughIv
cleaned. cooked in the purity of abso-
lutte cleanliness and then mixed with
the finest malt extract, made from spe-
cially selected barley. The cooking and
steaming of the wheat gelatinizes the
starch. and the malt extract, a power
full digestive agent, converts this starch
into Maltese, or malt sugar, in which
Malta-Vita is very rich. Maltese is of
great food value, sweetens the wheat
sufficiently to make unnecessary the
use of any foreign sweetening agent and
the weakest stomach digests and assim-
Hates 1t without effort. Rolled into
Wafer-like flakes and baked under in
tense heat. Malta-Vita comes from the
ovens crisp and brown, positively the
most delicious food in the world. All

ONE HALF BLOCK.
Recorder Hodapp Will Not Oppose its
Purchase, on Conditions.
We Dai

A great deal of pressure has been
brought to bear on City Recorder Ho-
dapp to get him to retire from the atti-
tude which he has taken on the propo-
stiOn for the purchase by the city of
Judge Cray's property on North Fourth
street. As a result of conferences with
Benjamin Taylor, of the committee of
the Civic Improvement league, and
others, he has made up his mind to
agree to a compromise. He states that
if the committee can get the subscrip-
tiOns to hold good on the purchase of
one of the half blocks, or if not less
than 81 200 can be secured in subscrip-
ITEMS, and if the half block can be ,pur-
chased at reasonable figure, as for
instance $4,000, he will not interpose
any objections to drawing the warrants
and signing the necessary papers. This
would not increase the city's indebted
edness materially, and would at the
same time give land for park. He es-
Inmates that it will take 81 900 the first
year to build walks, plant trees and
flowers, build band stand, etc, and he
will ask that special provision be made
for this in the park levy.

COLEMAN ENTERS A DENIAL
Detective States That He Did Not
Pull Penciiie's Leg.

Minneapolis, June "a framed up
scheme ON the part of friends of certain
parties in Minneapolis to land Coleman
at any cost That is the prosecution
against +. j. Coleman described by Fred
Boardman, in opening the defense IN the
case of The State against Thomas Cole
man, for alleged extortion of 5000 from
William Pencille.
Yesterdays session was marked by a
very sensational cross examination of
the defendant by County Attorney Al.
Smith. Smith attacked Coleman fierce
", and Coleman came back in an angry
manner which aroused excitement to a
high pitch and caused the bailitfs some
difficulty in maintaing order.
Coleman, in short denied all the testi-
mony of Pencille and Louise Olkers, the
star witnesses for the state. He said
that he did not direct Louise to write to
Penclle, nor did he give her any orders
to entrap Pencille in the room in the
lodging house where he discovered him.
He testified that he did receive 500
from an express office, and that the
money had been sent by Pencille, but
he said it had been sent to Miss Olkers,
and that he gave it to her.
He swore that Pencile offered him
81 600 if he would suppress the informa-
ton he had obtained, and which he was
in duty bound to deliver over to Mrs.
Pencille's attorneys to use in the divorce
action which had been brought.
Yesterdays session was largely at
tended by women, many of them young
and pretty, and it is understood that
most of the women present are ready to
give testimony in this case.
They are women who have acted as
assistants to various detectives or who
claim to have been employed at one
time or another by Coleman, and whose
Testimony may be used to substantiate
doubtful points.
1t has been limited by the defense that
certain prominent parties in Minneap-
oils would be glad to see Coleman con-
lvicted, and this fact, coupled with the
fact that Coleman has been a figure
whether disclosed or not, in some of
the most sensational divorce cases in
this city, adds interest to the disclos-
ures which may be made when the de-
Tense brings in its full case.
In anticipation of the rafting of dry
bones, crowds have been focking to
Judge Browns courtroom.

PARK MENAGERIE GROWS.
Pair Of Young Foxes Added to the At
fractions Of Sibley.
From Mondays Dai

FROM MONDAY 5 DAILY.
Fritz Busch has presented Sibley park
with a pair of young foxes, and Park
Superintendent Blake will have suit
able enclosure made for them They
will be an added attraction to the park
menagerie. :t1 ~
The deer are eating well and have a
better appearance than they did some
time ago. The one that was injured is
coming on nicely The two little goats
proved such hogs that they refused to
let the deer eat, and so the party who
presented them to the park took them
back again.
One of the pheasants has developed
such tendency to fight that it has had
to be removed from the enclosure with
the rest and placed in cage by itself.
The cutting of the first hay crop was
begun today. The crop is very good
one, owing to the frequent rains.
Hundreds of people visited the park
yesterday, from all parts of the city. 1t
is in nice shape, and beauty spot.

Recorder Wants to Be Shown
Where Moneys Coming From
LETTER FROM Mr.. hODAPP
Thinks There Is No Authority TO Pur.
chase Land FIR Park Under
Existing Circumstances.

From Mondays Daily. ..
City Recorder Hodapp has given the
following statement to. the press for
publication:
The council bought a park site, but
how will they pay for the same? The
course pursued will lead to failure. Lee
gal opinion says there is no authority
for it, and if so, it certainly is a moral
wrong, that with the sentiment of a
few to burden the taxpayers with an
obligation to this extent, for an invest
ment of this nature, without having a
voice in the matter. And the officials
representing all should see that it is
not done. The claim is made that such
deals have previously been made. This
does not Justify that the practice should
be continued
One alderman made an effort to have
the proposition brought before the peO-
Pile, (Which could be done at the fall
election). That is the only proper way
it should be. The city could then is
sue 49, OF per cent bonds, made pay
able in twenty or thirty years, saving
of or 2% per cent. The suggestion
was made that property be bought and
left to be fixed up in later years, as
finances would permit. This | think
81 ba ant
created in the project, and not business
like. The issue should be made sutfi.
GENTLY large to bring about the pos
sibilites of the present generation to en-
Joy the benefits. This would require So,
500 for property; $500 curb, gutter
and sidewalks; $4,000 to properly fix uE
the park; about $1,000 for matchmaking
the streets, which will necessarily have
to be done in a year or two, and should
be provided for now; less 81 900 sub
scribed would be $4,000. Bonds at
per cent is 5000 net, and say $l,4OO fol-
maint enance. The council would only
have to make the additional annua
lew of $1,000 or thereabouts.
Having been approached pro and con
take this method of setting at rest
in the minds of the public my PROPOSE
tion and views in the matter.
The Fourth street park deal is hel(
up pending further action of the coun
ell Possibly the council will call 6
special election, but it is a question
whether legal bonds could be voted as
the city is now up to the limit of it:
bonded Indebtedness.

MINNEOPA PARK MATTER.
Mr.. Buck Talks With One Of the Com
mitteemen Today.


1t is understood that the Board of
Trade Minneopa park committee wrote
yesterday to Mr.. Buck and informed
him that the committee was prepared
TO meet him for the purpose of closing
the deal on the original park lines as
set forth in the law. Mr. Buck is re-
ported to have conversed with mem
Der of the committee over the long dis
lance wire this morning, and he init
mated that he had made several trips to
Mankato with the view to closing the
negotiations and each time something
prevented Mr.. Buck and the committee
from reaching an agreement.
Mr.. Buck was in Mankato on Sunday
and made a trip to the falls. He was
very much impressed with the beauty
of the surroundings as he always has
been. He is not overly anxious to dis
pose of the property, SO he has stated
several times.
Mr.. Buck stated that he considered
1T unnecessary for him to come to Man
kato. He was willing the committee
should make out the proper papers and
negotiate with the attorney general. The
committee will probably 90 to st. Paul
and request the attorney general to ac-
cept the property on behalf of the state.
In the event of condemnation proceed
lngs MIR. Buck would have the right to
appeal from the award of the appraisers.
carry the matter into the court. and
there is possibility of delay until the
next legislature meets. The fate of
the park would then be in the balance.
