Great Number of Witnesses Called ir
Indian Land Cases.

st. Paul. - More than one thousand
cbancery case each involving from one
to five subpenas have already been
started in Minnesota in the big blanket
equity suit in which the United States
is seeking to recover the title to land
in Becker, Clearwater and Mahnomen
counties which was given to white
people by Indians. The big equity suit
is brought by the United States against
the numerous people in Minnesota who
acquired some title to land on the
White Earth Indian reservation
through people who are alleged to be
full-blooded Indians.
Already some 5000 subpenas in the
big case have been served by the
United States marshal and large
number are still to be sent out. 1t is
said that none of the owners of the
property reside in St. Paul and that
no subp9nas in the cases have yet
been served locally.
A referee to take evidence in the
case has not yet been appointed by
the court and it is not thought that
cases will close up for hearing at the
November term of United States cir.

TO RAISE PRICE OF LAGER
STATEWIDE INCREASE IN BAR
REL CHARGE ON BEER STARTED.
Retailer Will Have to Sell Smaller
Mugs to Get Same Profit He
Is Now Reaping.

W1nona.E Winona breweries, as well
as those throughout the state, see an
advance in the selling price of beer
product as the only solution of a com
bination of circumstances which affects
their business.
1t is stated here on authority that,
in order to meet the steady increase
in the cost of the ingredients which
enter into the manufacture of beer, it
will be necessary to increase the
charges for the product. The increases
have been almost revolutionary within
the past five years. A comparison will
emphasize, say the brewers, the fact
that If a wide margin was left brew
ers between the cost of production and
the selling price five years ago that
margin is wiped out at this time un-
less prices have witnessed a similar
and corresponding advance. Beer sells
at the same price now that it did five
years ago.
Ingredients Cost More.
Five years ago malt sold for 55 cents
a bushel, while today it is quoted at
$1.25 to $1.S0. In the same period hops
advanced from 10 cents pound to 3S
cents; barley from 40 cents bushel to
SLIP bushel; bottles have seen
steady advance in cost, and labor has
developed a notable increase
The present situation is not confined
to Winona. 1t is nationwide, declared
a prominent Winona brewer yester.
day. The largest brewers in the coun.
try today are working upon some
method whereby they may overcome
the advance in the cost of the ingre,
dients of manufactured beer. The in.
crease will probably bring the cost to
81, and it is more than likely that all
of the Winona breweries will concur
in the action. The advance will not
be confined to Winona, but will prob,
ably extend over the entire state, and
take in practically all of the breweries.
The present outlook is that the Wi,
mona breweries probably will establish
the schedule first, for beer here at this
time is cheaper than at any other
point
1t is not expected that the advance
will affect the consumer to any appre'
ciable extent. Beer will be sold for 5
cents glass as heretofore, but the
saloonkeeper must take his own pre-
caution in the way of realizing on the
sales the same revenue as at the pres.
ent time. He will probably meet this
by serving the drinks in smaller glass.
es. The advance here will go into ef-
feet within another month.

about two months ago my hands

When my hands first started to get
sore, there were small blisters like wa

itched dreadfully, it just seemed as
though I could tear the skin all off. I
would scratch them and the skin would
peel off, and the flesh would be all

ried me very much, as I had never
had anything the matter with my skin.

would amount to anything. But it kept
getting worse. One day saw piece

had the same trouble with her hands.
She had used Cuticura Soap and Oint-
ment and was cured. I decided to try
them, and my hands were all healed
before I had used one cake of Cuti-
cura Ointment. I am truly thankful
for the good results from the Cuticura
Soap and Ointment, for thanks to them
I was cured, and did not have to lose

proved to be the principal means of
escape of the affrighted people.
A south-bound limited on the Duluth
road, now the Northern Pacific's line
to Duluth, due at Hinckley aht 4:05,
ran through the smoke and flames to
within about mile and half of the
village. There it was met by refugees
from the town, and its crew, learning
of an unsafe bridge, was run back to
Skunk lake, little lake near the
track, about five and half miles south
of Hinckley, where it's passengers
passed through a frightful, yet sue
cessful battle for their lives.
Gravel Pit Refuge for Scores.
Directly east of the town itself was
a gravel pit owned by the Great
Northern, about three acres in extent
and filled with three or four feet of
water at the time of the fire. This
was the nearest means. of escape from
the fury of the flames. Many deeds
of heroism were recorded, of villagers
who helped in the rescue Of their
friends, and especially of the crews of
the two railroad trains.
AS soon as news of the disaster
reached the Twin City, relief expedi-
tions were organized and special
trains, equipped with supplies, physi-
clans and nurses, were rushed to the
scene. Senator Knute Nelson, who
was then Governor, Immediately
called mass meeting, of which the
late Charles A. Pillsbury was made
chairman. He also served as cnair-
man of the permanent relief commit
tee, which established headquarters at
Hinckley and supplied money and pro-
visions to the sufferers.
Countrywide Response to Appeal.
Persons all over the United States
responded to the appeal for funds, and
$1S5,000 was raised in short time for
the help of the refugees. This was
sufficient to care for their immediate
needs, and later a part of it was used
to help rebuild the burned towns.
\ Hinckley is now the center of one
of the most prosperous communities in
that section of the state, the ash heap
of 1894 having been converted mean
while into thrifty dairy farms, and the
town itself has become the home of
two or three times as many people as
lived there before the fire.
