HOW IT STARTED.
THE CRAZE FOR TREATING CATARRH, BRONCHITIS
I AND CONSUMPTION BY INHALATION :
Brought About by the Wonderful Cures Hade
Through the Use of Hyomei.
A New Dry Air Germicide and the Only One- That
Can Be Inhaled.
Three years ago had you suggested to any medical man In good standing, that
€iseases of the respiratory organs could be cured by Inhalation, he would have
laughed at you. Although admitting that through inhalation alone could these ba
reached, he would have at the same time informed you that no germicide had ever,
yet been discovered which could be carried In the air we breath© to the bronchial
tubes and lungs without killing the patient. Yet, today there are dozens of rem
edies on the market advertised to cure by inhalation, and every one seems crazed
over this method of treating disease. Old established specialists, and , advertising
doctors, who for years claimed to cure thousands annually, have dropped all their
own treatments and gone into the inhalation business. "Why? Because a new dry
air germicide, called Hyomei, has been found, and out of over seven hundred thou
sand cases treated last year, failed to completely cure but. 106. It ia no wonder
that the public and medical profession have gone wild over the new treatment that
will prevent and cure disease which every year destroys over two hundred thou- -
sand lives in this country alone. The people should remember, however, that
there is but one dry air germicide, and It is called "Hyomei. Through its won
derful powers alone has cure by inhalation, been made possible. Bear this in
• mind wlw-n purchasing a treatment, no other Inhaler made contains VHyomei. .
No other manufacturer can obtain it, and last, but not Jeast. no other is guar
anteed to cure, or money refunded. Ask for Booth's "Hyomei" and take nothing
else.

ii ii Kxhlbltlon of Shoe Making-A
Practical Showing? of the Bene

■
tries.
If the Golden Rule shoe department
was placarded with signs tearing the
vords, 'Shoes made while you wait," pat
rons might be somewhat incredulous, but
a visit to The east wing of the big store,
where a complete set of shoe manufactur
ing machines are at work, turning out fln
l.-<ht.-d articles before the eyes of the ob
server, would remove the doubt. The
machines have been in operation since
last Monday and are constantly surround
ed by the crowds of shoppers visiting the
Golden Rule. An attendant familiar with
the different machines Is present to an
swer questions of the curious, and his is
a busy task. Every one wants to know
"what makes the wheels go round," as it
were, because th;> sight of the rapid ev
olution of several pieces of leather Into
a Tainty piece of footgear i*. a novelty
as well :is a subject of deep interest.
Thoroughly modern in every detail, the
machines at work give the best possible
illustration of the shoemakhigr industry.
Whenever possible, other things being
equal. W. H. Elsinger & Co., proprietors of
the Golden Rule, patronize home industry,
and it is in part to give their patrons an
object li sson in what Is being done in
St. Paul In the line of shoe manufacturing
that the display is being made. The ma
chines are placed by Sharood & Crooks,
T.'hose s-killed operators manipulate them.
\V. 11. Elsinger & Co. are among the
wholesale firm's heaviest buyers, as
is shown by the fact that they
paid Sharood & Crooks $60,000
for bouts and shoes alone. The
amount for this year will be much
larger, as the Golden Rule lias ordered
lor the month of May alone $10,000 worth
of footwear. A twofold object is attained
by the Golden Rule in. the display. It
will show the people of St. Paul just how
their shoos are made, and bring forcibly
to mind- the growth and apparent perma
nency of the local shoe industry, as the
same shoes manufactured at the Golden
Rule arc on sale throughout the civilized
v.nrld, where they have gained a place
among the best products ->f shoe manu
facturing concerns. Indeed, it is said to
be a fact that these goods made in St.
Paul seem to be more sought abroad than
at home, because the people here have
not hs yet fully realized the great advan
tages being offered by the home made
goods.
In the Golden F«.ule exhibit there are
five machines, all perfect patterns of the
latest completo Goodyear shoe manufac
turing machines. Each machine performs
Its particular part In the shoemaklng pro
cess, and under the direction of the skill
ed operators seems little short Of human
In the intricacies It performs. Watching
these machines, nottng the lapidit.y of ac
tion and the perfect articles they turn
out, it seems almost imaginative that
shoes were ever slowly made by hand.
Then, too, the machines make a more
evenly finished and more durable shoe
than the most expert cobbler of other
days turned out.
Besides the machines on exhibition
there are probably a dozen others that
enter into the process of modern shoe
making, but these are not shown at the

Golden Rule, though their operation is
explained in connection with the work
of other machines. The first machine at
the Golden Rule that, the shoe reaches is
the "in seamer." This is a complicated
machine with three steel lingers that sew
in place the strips of leather, halJ." an inch
wide, that are placed between the sole
and the bottom of the shoe, and through
which the sole Is sewed on. These strips
protect the shoe from the effects of wa
ter.
When the strips are in place the shoe
goes to the "sole layer," where the rough
soles, cut half an inch wider than th«
uppers, are cemented by strong pressure.
In this, for the shoe next is turned over
to the refining influence of the "rough
rounder," which trims up the rough edges
of the sole into the neat shapes in vogue.
This work is done with small chisels, ar
ranged to operate like the needle of a
sewing machine.
The "channel turner," where the shoe
next goes, is a machine with a rapidly
revolving ratchet wheel, sharp-edged to
the finest degree, which cuts a quarter
inch raised welt all around the sole of the
shoe. When the shoe is sewed this welt
is followed by the thread. The "sewer"
or "stitcher" is the last machine in the
Golden Rale factory.
It is the most Intricate of all the ma
chines, but does its work with undeviat
ing accuracy and great rapidity. The
thread with which it sews works auto
matically through melted wax held in a
portion of the machine and kept warm Dy
steam. An operator on this machine will
sew a shoe in half a minute. The sewing
possesses an advantage over hand sewing
in the fact that the stitches are perfectly
even, one stitch being just the same dis
tance from the other all the way around
the shoe. With the sole sewed on the up
per the shoe is ready for the finishing
touches, and is completed, so far as tho
Golden Rule factory is concerned.
The speed of the different machines
varies. The "in-seaming" machine will
turn out 400 pairs of shoes a day, but tho
"stitch" can complete only 250 pairs. One
shoe can be sent through all of the ma
chines and turned out complete within
two minutes.
The Golden Rule factory is located In
the old part of the building, facing the
large entrance to the new Robert street
annex. The store is well lighted, so that
the working of the machines is easily
seen by the spectators. The set of ma
chinery cost $1,500, and on every pair of
shoes i.t makes Sharood & Crooks have to
pay the inventor a royalty of 4 cents.
"If all local dealers would patronize us
as extensively as the Golden Rule," said
Mr. Sharood, speaking of W. H. Elsinger
& Co.'s large buying of home-made shoes,
"our firm would make 80,000 more pairs of
shoes a year, and would have to increase
our force of employes over 200."
The Golden Rule factory will be in oper
ation a couple of weeks longer, so that all
who desire may witness the shoemaking
process.
DOESN'T GROW OLD.
.ImiM's P. Heeney, Who Wai Ap
pointed a Patrolman Yesterday.
James P. Heeney was appointed a mem
ber of the police force yesterday by May
or Kiefer, vice Mathias Young, deceased.
The new appointee will not be called upon
to do patrol duty, but will be detailed
at one of the stations as a detective.
Heeney, some two years ago, was em
ployed as a waiter in a restaurant, but
in December, 18^2, was appointed to the
police force by Mayor Wright. He served
an a detective at patrolman's pay nutil
June, 1594. when ho was decapitated by
Mayor Smith. Since then Heeney has
been conducting a private detective agen
cy with more or less success.
When he was sworn In yesterday he
filed an oath with the city clerk stating
that he was a citizen of the United States
and was thirty-four years of age, hav
ing been born Oct. 21, 1865.
The records in the office of the city
clerk show that when he was appointed
to the force Dec. 3, 1892, he was thirty
two years of age. In his last declaration
as to his age Heeney manages to come
under the charter provision which prohib
its the appointment of patrolmen who are
over thirty-five years of age.
Heeney's long experience in private de
tective work will be of material aid to
the present detective department.

THE ST. PAUL GLOBE, SUNDAY, MAY 7, 1899
MARRIED AT HUDSON
BUT THE NEW WISCONSIN LAW
PUTS AN BHD TO
IT ALL.
FIVE DAYS NOTICE REaUIEED
Except' .In Emergency G'aacw—Six
Hnndredl Couple* 'Went to the
Little Town on lUe St. Crolx to
Get Married I.«»t Year-Llit of
Those Wed Since the llnit of tlic
Year—Return* Not All In. '.
Cupid received a solar plexus blow
from the Wisconsin legislature during the
last session, whan the True law waa pass
ed requiring a marriage license in the
state of Wisconsin. But the Hale fellow
with the sprouting wings was by no
means counted out, aa the last two
months have been record breakers in
marriages at Hudson, and the magis
trates and several of the clergymen have
been doing a land office business.
The new law went Into effect Friday,
and in the future marriages can- only be
authorized, except In emergency cases,
through a licence, and the five-day clause
makes the law even more stringent than
in this state, for an applicant for a license
In Wisconsin now has to give five days'
notice.
During IS9B six hundred marriages took
place at Hudson. In many cases the
contracting parlies came from distant
slates, but the greater number were Min
nesota people who took advai>ta.go of the
limited restrictions of the Wisconsin stat
ute. Nearly three hundred marriages
v.ere recorded by Register of Deeds Walk
er during the months of November and
December last year.
The True bill l.assed by the last legis
lature is general in its effect and requires
that five days prior to the marriage a li
cense must be piocured, and prescribes
penalties for non-compliance with the
law, However, the last section of the
statute provides that .district judges or
any court of record can perform the cer
emony in emergency cases, at the discre
tion of the court. .
Hudson has long been the Mecca for
romantic couples. Stern papas°and unre
lenting relatives have been thwarted, and
some very pretty romances have found
completion just across the Sv. Croix.
The old law required that the clergy
man or justice performing the ceremony
should make a return to the register of
deed's office within thirty days, but in
very few cases has this been lived up to;
in fact, some of the marriages performed
last summer were only reported to the
office within the last three months. On
some of the certificates the following Is
written:
"PLEASE DON'T PUBLISH."
Register Walker says the recoids of his
office are public, and after the marriages
have been reported to him he has no right
to suppress them further.
Some amusing incidents have happened
since the old law first went into effect.
One day a retiring couple applied to one
of the eligible clergymen and asked to
be married. They brought along a sister
who did all the talking and arranged
for everything, as both bride and groom
felt deeply the importance ol the occa
sion. After the ceremony had been per
formed the sister inquired what the
charges would be.
"Well, really," said the officiating cler
gyman, "I have no regular price, but
anything you choos6 to pay will be all
right."
"Well, what do you think would be
about right?" Interrogated the sister.
"Some give me *5 and some J10," replied
the clergyman, tubbing bis hands to
gether.
"Oh, no you don't." said the wise sister
"You get just $1.50; that's all the law al.
lows you."
Then again some high fees have been
paid to the clergymen and court officials
and it is safe to say that the passage of
the new law will drive some of the cler
gymen at least into newer and fresher
fields.
One of the hackmen left Hudson yester
day on account of the new law. as the
business is overdone, and without
the wedding trade business will not be
very remunerative;: H WIU °n a hotel

lines bear these signs, while only one
line ever carries letters. Said Assistant
Postmaster O'Brien, in speaking of the
matter yesterday:
"There is really nothing new In the or
der. The law Bays specifically that only
cars, boats, stages or any other vehicles
actually engaged lrt carrying mall can
bear the sign. For violation of the law
a penualty of fIOOTs prescribed. There
has been nothing all along to prevent a
postpofflce Inspector: from up'
any of the local cars bearing the sign that
are not carying mails."

Last Tuesday was election day in the
city of West St. Paul, Dakota county.
The contest for the mayoralty was a

JAMES H. BERRY.
Re-elected Mayor of West St Paul.
spirited one. The candidates were ex-
Mayor Joseph Hermann and Mayor James
H. Berry, who sought a re-election. Mr.
Hermann was the candidate of the Citi
zens' pariy, while Mayor Berry was an
independent candidate. The result was
a victory for Mr. Berry, who was re
elected by a handsome majority.
The mayor Is a Democrat of the Bryan
type. During the term drawing to a
close, he has given the city a good ad
ministration. He has taken a lively per
sonal interest in all that pertains to the
welfare of the city, and has been prompt
in the performance of every official duty.
His devotion to the needy poor of the
city forms a very creditable chapter In
the history of his administration, while
his record as president of the board of
education has, perhaps, been the most
prominent factor in his success.
As president of the board of education
he has persistently urged that profes
sional merit be made the basis of all ap
pointments to positions in the public
schools of the city, and that the educa
tional standard of our teachers should
be raised. The result haa been that dur
ing the past year the publio schools of
the city have been in charge of the most
efficient corps of teachers who have ever
had charge of the training of its future
citizens.
The contest for aldermanic honors In
the First ward was lively. There were
three candidates, Aid. H. G. Marthaler
George A. Ladd and D. W. Hurley. So
olos« was the contest that the candidate
heading the poll received only five votes
more than the lowest candidate.
Messrs. Marthaler and Ladd were
elected.
The Second ward elected John Lelch
ner and Joseph Gibis as aldermen, while
the Third ward chose J. J. Galvin and
George Sperrel. •
Albert Tripp was elected city Justice
of the peace, and Louis Wynacht con
stable.
To many people in St. Paul the Sixth
v/ard and West St. Paul are Bynonymous.
The municipal corporation officially call
ed the City of West St. Paul consists of
all that part of the old township of West
St. Paul lylng.west of the city of South
St. Paul, and south of the present boun
dary between Ramsey and Dakota coun
ties. It has an area of about five square
miles, and a population of about 2,000.
The city is divided into three wards, each
of which is representd In the council by
two aldermen. The mayor is ex-offlcio
president of the city council, anß Is a
voting member of that body.
The city council holds regular monthly
meetings on the first Monday of each
month. The term of office is two years,
beginning on the 6th of June in each odd
numbered year.
The city clerk, assessor, superintendent
of schools, attorney and treasurer are
chosen by t"he city council and hold office
for one year. The police are appointed
by the mayor, subject to confirmation by
the council.
Considered from an educational stand
point the city of West St. Paul is known
as Special District No. 2, Dakota county.
The school population numbers about 400.
There are four small school houseg, of
two class rooms each. The teaching fore*
consists of seven teachers, under the su
pervision of the city superintendent of
schools. Teachers are nominated by the
board of education and elected by the city
council.
The board of education consists of a
committee of the city council elected an
nually by that body and two ex-offlelo
members—the mayor and the superin
tendent of schools. Tt holds regular meet-
Ings monthly, which are attended by the
teachers and the public. The teachers ex
hibit written work done by the pupils of
their respective classes during the month
and take part In the deliberations of the
board, except executive business.
After the formal business of each meet
ing has been disposed of the citizens
present may Join In the general discus
sion, which is then In order, of any toplo
relating to the school Interests of thft
city.
MRS. HATGOOD BKTTKR.
Bnt Little Is Revealed as to the Mq-
tlv*« Which Prompted Her.
Yesterday brought no new Information
regarding the attempted luicldo of Mrs.
Haygood, a boarder at the Clarendon ho
tel, on Friday night. It Is known that
there Is more behind the facts as pub
lished than appears, yet the friends of the
woman will neither admit nor deny any
thing. The reasons assigned for her rash
act are of the usual character, morbid
brooding over troubles and unhappy fam
ily relations.
A report from St. Luke's hospital, where
the woman received treatment, states
that she is improving rapidly and will
soon be able to go back to the hotel.

CHARLES E. D. OLMSTED DEAD
PROMINENT BUSINESS MAN PASSES
AWAY AT HIS OSCKOLA iVE
MB HOME
_____
He Had Been a Hesldeut of St. Paul
for Over Twenty Yearn—One of
the Active House of Hope Work.
era for Yeara.
Charles B. D. Olmsted, for over twen
ty years a prominent business man of
this city, disd last evening at his homo,
693 Osceola avenue, at the age of fifty
two.
About three weeks ago he was taken
from a Grand avenue car in a fainting
condition and carried into Bowen & Mun
cy's art store, whence he was taken home
and never fully recovered. His health
broke down somewhat about three years
ago after an attack of Brighfs disease,
but he was able to look after his business
affairs, although not in the best of health
until this later illness. Heart failure
was the cause of the late attack.
Mr. Olmsted was born in Lakeville,
Livingston county, N. T., near Rochester,
and began his business life in New York
c|ty in the employ of tha Deleware~3nd
Hudson Canal company. In New York
he was threatened with consumption and
came to St. Paul, where he recovered hi«
health and was sound in body until three
years ago, as related. He was married
in April, 1882, to Miss Ellen Dwight, of
Boston, and they have two children who
survive him, Amelia and Theodore.
During his residence here Mr. Olmsted
has been very active in church work.
From 189? to 1896 he was superintendent
of the House of Hope Mission on Bradley
street, and ha 6 ever since taken an active
interest in its welfare, although unable
to be identified so prominently with it.
He was also a deacon in the House of
Hope, and during the pastorate of Dr.
Breed, assisted the pastor in the flnanclai
work of the church to a large extent.
Upon his removal about a year ago to
the present family residence, he became
a member of the First Presbyterian
church and has been superintendent of
the Sunday school, as well as president
of the board of trustees.
The funeral will be held from the First
church, Lincoln avenue and Grotto street,
this afternoon at 5:30, as the body will be
taken to Geneseo, N. V., for Interment.

Rev. Carl W. Scovel. who was intimately
related with Mr. Olmsted In his church
and mission work, will officiate, assisted
by Rev. John Sinclair, pastor of tha
church. There will also be a memorial
service for Mr. Olmsted this afternoon at
3:30 at the Bradley street mission, where
tha deceased was so long superintendent.
During: his long business career here,
Mr. Olmsted had made a host of frienda.
He was popular with and respected by
the business men as a square-dealing,
honorable man, possessed of a great con
fidence in the future of St. Paul, cheerful
and hopeful always, not a successful
business man, in the sense of massing a
large fortune, but well-to-do and reliable.
Ha was never active in politics or mu
nicipal affairs, but devoted his energies,
outside of his business, to his church
work. He believed in the extension of tha
work of the Gospel through the social
agencies of the church and wu a firm
believer In the organizations which have
this for their inspiration.
