Rochester Mimi, July 19.-The
nineteenth annual meeting of the
Southern Minnesota Medical associa
ton will be held in Rochester Wed
nesday, August g. The session will
be one of the most important in the
history of the organization. 1t is
probable that it will result in the
consolidation of the Southern Mime
sofa association with the Minnesota
Valley Medical association
The valley organizations will meet
in Rochester at the same time in
conjunction with the Southern Mime
sofa organization and the main bust
ness will be decision on the union
of the two societies. 1t is the con.
sensus of opinion among the mem
bers that a union of the two organi.
cations will make much stronger
medical society and more valuable
one to the members.
Surgical work at St. Mary's hospi.
tai and the study of the brain and
nerves and the system employed at
the state hospital will occupy much
of the time.
The Sisters of st. Francis who
have charge of st. Mary's hospital,
will serve lunch to the visiting doc
tors, and DR.. A. F. Kilbourne, super
intendent of the state hospital, will
entertain at dinner.
The committee of arrangements is

Some of the owners Of property
on Hickory street between Front
and Second are proposing to present
a bill to the city ina short time for
block and placed on other streets,
without any cost to the property
owners on those streets. They say
that they had good material for the
concrete foundation, that only needed
spiking up, leveling off, and the mix
ing in of some cement. The macadam
was nine inches thick, and the prop
erty owners claim that it was first
class in quality, and that they ought
to have an offset in their paving as

most remarkable progress in the mas tery of English.
 Yesterday the deputy sheriff re ceived a letter from him in which he recited what he would like to be his plans for his vacation, all the plans looking. however, not toward rest and recreation but to the next term of school.
 The letter is a remarkable dJcu- ment for boy who has lately learned the language in which it is written. The penmanship is no less remark able. IL appears to be a combination of professional and a business hand. The letters are all well, though sometimes curiously, formed, and firm. The fact that he had learned to write in another language is be trayed in the English letter. for for eigners. even French, Italians and Spaniards, though their letters are the same as those of the English, have each a pecuiarity of penman- ship. The peculiarity is for the most part a degree of regularity that is most often not seen in American or English penmanship.

CT many of the more ordinary bills have been forgotten. These acts are those of George Parbis, comedy car toonist and Pritzkow and Blanchard, who appear in something that they call "A Mixed-up Affair" IL is really classical say the coast critics. Unlike anything in the song and dance line. also in comedy sketch, that vas ever presented on stage, it takes ny storm everywhere.
 Parbis is a cartbonist whose drawing appeared in the big papers of the coun- try a few years ago. When he decided to go on the stage he determined to mix a little comedy with his drawing and the consequence is that his time iS always booked months ahead.
 Dunbar X Weston are the third at traction. They do a high class sing ing. talking and dancing act, about which little can be said, but of the kind that never fails to please.

WHERE TO CARRY VAlUABlES. Pocket Sewed Firmly To Petticoat IS
 Recommended.

Nowadays, when so. many women are travelling, the question of safe and convenient way to carry money, papers. etc. is problem. The pocket here described is one used by wo- man who has crossed the continent ten times. and who has been abroad several times.
 In it she has carried thousands of dollars. and always safely and con vcnientIy. At her recommendation. I. too tried the pockets, and now would not bc without them on any petticOat that l own, for not only are they con venient for travelling, but also when about the city and want your hand free. and yet desire to carry papers or cards. says writer in the Washing ton Herald.
 The pocket which is cut in any size you like is made of good strong cam brio and is sewn to the petticoat about six inches from the band. In this way the pocket is always in your lap when you sit, and you can occasionally put your hand there to see if the contents are safe
 For an ordinary pocket cut a strip of cambric six inches wide by twelve inches long. Turn up the bottom. en- velope fashion. and put a hem on the top. The hem is to stay the button holes. The top is cut pointed. or simply turn the edges in pointed shape. which makes it stronger
 On the first turn make three but tonholes and one in the flap. Sew the pocket up at the edges to form an envelopelike bag, and then stitch firmly on the petticoat on three sides. not only on the edges but across the center where the flap comes under the buttonhole hem.
 The buttons must then be sewn firmly through to the skirt In this way there is no possible danger of the pocket coming open 1 tried the snap fasteners, but found that they were not as safe as good old-faShioned but tons sewn firmly on. The button that holds the flap down is only sewn through one thickness and it is well to put small piece of goods on the back to stay it.
 Of course the pockets can be made any size. but once tried I am sure that no woman will be without one of these pockets in her petticoat. espec- ially in these days when we are not allowed pockets in our dress skirts
 For holding the railroad ticket, money. jewels. or any such thing they are invaluable, and being so high up on the skirt are not likely to be dis turbed by thieves who might easily reach the petticoat pocket if low on the skirt
 In silk petticOats the pocket may be made of silk if it is lined inside with good strong cambric. and in a white

ADJUSTMENTS
COLISEUM,

Oh you wiggle, It certainly made one big fuss at the Coliseum last night. It was featured, and it was worth fea turning. "Wiggleworm Wiggle" is is something of song, even better than Going Some for You" which was Miss Freda Held's big hit earlier in the week. Those are two songs right from the center of songdom. Neither was ever heard of here before, much less sung, but both are going to be hummed, whistled and sung from this time on Remember that cnap you met in the restaurant the other day? And that fellow in the store? And the clerk who accepted your life insur ance premium? And the conductor who collected your fare on the street car And the clerk who measured you three yards of organdie? Every single one was humming That's Going Some for You" wasn't he? And when you went home wasn't the whole family singing it? That shows how much of hit it really made. Now they will all be singing ''WiggleWorm Wiggle," which isn't as catchy as the other, but is fully as. comic and q real gem in the way of popular melody
