Representative DalzeH of the same

over duties is revenue measure. and
Is therefore subject to any revenue

Quoted by the St. Benedictine Sisters,
is fast gaining the reputation of be-
ing one of the very best hospitals in
northern Minnesota, and the success
which has attended the treatment of

of congratulations, not only to the
Sisters, but also to the entire city as
a prosperous institution within our
portals.
During last week there we're some
twenty-four operations for appendi-

patients at St. Anthony's hospital;
there are also sixty cases of typhoid
fever. None of the operations have
had fatal results, and there have
been no deaths from typhoid. There
are still five cases of appendicitis
awaiting final disposition by the
attending physician. In addition
to the operations and the fever

. The new psychological and
pathological laboratory which has
recently been established at the
hospital is being used daily. In
few cases, the doctors are unable
to classify the germs of patients.
In this department, the germs are
grown until they become, recognize

atory is of great assistance in the
treatment of patients.
The Sisters of St. Benedict are
conducting the hospital in an admir-

and do receive, the hearty endorse

matter of much favorable comment.

THANKFUL TO PATRONS
Are DESTROYS OF Fulfilling All Agree
ments, to the Very Letter.-Had
aSpIendid Trade.

George T. Baker, manager of the
manufacturing jewelry firm of George
T. Baker & Co. of this city, desires
to thank the public through the
columns of the Pioneer for their
liberal patronage during the Chris
mas rush.
r When interviewed this morning by
a representative of the Pioneer, Mr..
Baker said: ,, >-
Il wish you would state to the
public that during the holiday rush
in our store, possibly some watches
were delivered that were not cor
rectly adjusted, rings sold that were
not of the correct sizes, and we
know that there were many articles
of jewelry and silverware purchased
from our extensive stock which were
not engraved.
IF it is the wish of the recipients
of these articles to have their initials
engraved on them, or any alterations
or adjustments made, we shall be
glad to comply with their desires,
absolutely free of charge.
Il firmly believe" continued Mr..
Baker, that satisfied patrons are
our best means of advertising and
our policy is accordingly dictated
by that principle.
We have had a large share of
the holiday trade and are thankful
to our many patrons for it. We
wish all our customers and friends
a prosperous and a happy New
Year."

four of Chapter 423 of the Laws OF
Minnesota for the year 1907. The
petition sets out the various steps

detail, as a prerequisite to the max
ing of the appropriation, which
seem to be regular and in conform

troverted by the defendants and
will be taken as sufficient for the
purposes of this proceeding.
The defendants filed their answer
to the petition, representing that

Comment

The Chronicle, of San Francisco,
says:
Mile. Sigrid Westerlind, the Swed-
ish-Finnish singer, created quite a
iurore last evening on her appearance
before an audience in the Swedish
American Hall. Mile, Westerlind pos
sesses a dramatic soprano Of pecu-
liarly vibrant quality, flexible and
elastic, and sings with a fire and
abandon which tells the theme OF the
song, even though it be in foreign
tongue Her program comprises
songs by German, Swedish, Norwe-
gian, Finnish and English composers,
and ranges from the simplicity Of
folk songs to the more exacting de-
mands Of classical productions"
The San Francisco Call says. "She
is the first Finnish singer to be heard
on the coast. She is an accomplished
linguist, and sings in Italian, French,
German, Swedish and English with
equal facility"
