The Butler-Ryan company, of this city, has secured the. contract for the improve ments which the Wisconsin Central road Is making in MJnifusapolis. At the time the permission to go ahead with the im provements was granted by the council of that city, it was partly understood by the council that the work should go to some Minneapolis firm.

So far only twenty men are at work at the place, but more are placed on at the north end of Nlcollet island. aim i in ansjr WHO blazed way THROUGH MIN'XBSGfrA FOiREISTS TO . MEET AGAIN THEY AXE THE REAL PIONEERS Will Hold Annual Ituslness Meeting nt Oapltol anil Afterward* Dine at the Mer chants'. Close on the heels of the meeting of the Territorial pioneers will corns thj annual convention and banquet of the Old Settlers' association, an organization which is looked upon with more respect and love each year by the ordinary "old resident." The members of the associa tion- pride themselves on being the real pioneers, inasmuch as no one is eligible to Join unless he came here before January 1, 1850. In other words they are ths "forty-niners," and can talk of old days without fear of being contradicted. According to information gained in tfie historical library in the capitol building, there are now about sixty men who be long to the association, and many of these are out of the state, so it can be safely assumed that only the "old Ftan.i bys" will be in evidence, June I, the great day. The settk-rs will meet at noon in the rooms of the State Historical association, and first listen to the min utes of the last annual meeting. The re port of the deaths in the ranks of tho association will then be listened to, and fitting resolutions will be drawn up. The old-timers will then march to the Merchants hotel where they intend to have an old-fashioned dinner se. ved In the old-fashionc-d way. The Merchants has been selected because it is on the site of the old Merchants hotel which was a stamping ground of the settlers in the days when St. Paul was just be ginning to grow. At the head of the table will be the president of the asso ciation, Isaac N. Gocdhue, of Minneap olis, and next to him it is expected that Alexander Ramsey will be seen. It goes without saying that v meeting of the association would be luoomplete if he were not present. One figure will be greatly missed this year, and that is Russell Blakeley, who occupied one of the positions of honor last June. He was always known as "Captain," in St. Paul, having been an old river man. He bure the distinction of having brought moe old settlers in the Saintly City than any other man, and was greatly b. - loved by his friends up to the time of his death, Feb. 4, ISOI. After the ban quet proper, toasts will be in orJer and the various members of the assi.cJa tion will tell about how tilings were here when they were young men. Their rc miniscenses are always of an Interesting nature, and are preserved In the histor ical library. Among those expecte 1 to bo present are W. P. Murray. J. D.

Norton Nelson, a traveling sales man, aged fifty-two years, living at 2650 Arapahoo street, Denver, Col., writes* "For the past three yean I have been troubled with Indigestion and I have tried various reir.e>Mes but have not found relief from the trou ble. I conmenced taking Rlpana Tab ules and I can now enjoy my meal and am never bothered with b tion Previous to taking the Tubules I suffered some from dlzzim as, he td- aches and constipation, but n not suffer from tho aboi Whenei-er I start out on my I trips, which last sixty days, I always see that I have plenty of Ripans Tab ules on hand and would never leave home without them. I always carry a small carton of them In my rest pocket and keep It replenished. I cannot sr-'-a-k any too highly of tho Tabules, as I know what they have done In my cass and I can recom mend them to any one who is sim ilarly afflicted.
