Samuel W. Pond, Jr., Tells Interesting
Stories of Indian Customs.
The Sioux Indians, as' they were1
found in this district of the country in
1834, were the subject of a discourse by
Samuel W. Pond, Jr., before the State
Historical society last evening. The
first Samuel Pond and his brother, Gid
eon, came to Minnesota in 1834, and
occupied a small log house near Lake
Calhoun. There the yestablished the
first mission work of any permanence
among the Indians.
The paper described many of the pe
culiar customs then existing. One cus
tom was for the wife to bind the hus
band if he came home drunk and to
keep him so till he sobered. The young
married man was not allowed^ to speak
to his wife's parents or look into their
faces. The tent of the Indian was the
property of the wife and not the hus
band. The speaker described the many
hardships which the Indians frequently
suffered.
The society made Mr. Pond a life
^''member. Judge W. C. Williston of
Er-fRed Wing was voted a member of the
J", ^executive council to take the j)lace of
jjLitthe late Moses K. Armstrong' of St.
Renames.

-J How to Clean Out Your Attic.
From a military post out west comes
the story of a lady who frankly ad
mits that she was once a coffee drunk
ard.
For twenty years I drank coffee, al
though I knew that it was harmful to
me. I suffered from periodical nervous
headaches which the physician said
were caused by the use of coffee. I was
indeed a confirmed coffee drunkard.'
**I suffered so intensely from head
aches as to require the services of a
nurse. I could find no tablets or pow
ders tha would give me any permanent
relief and I was compelled to just let
the headaches take their course. Each
attack used to last for a day or two.
"After I married and had the cares
of a family/I found i was becoming
a nervous wreck, and the strain became
unendurable. Something had to becould
done, and I concluded to try Postum
Food Coffee, giving up the old kind al
together.
I made it rich and strong, according
to directions, and drank it with plenty
of good cream. It proved to be deli
cious. It took several days, for the
coffee poison to work out of my system,
but I persisted and won out, and great
was my reward! Renewed energy and
vigor came to me 'and I improved so
that my neighbors observed and re
marked upon it.
"During all the year that I have
used Postum I have not had a single
headache, proof conclusive that my old
agonies came from coffee alone. I can
do all the work I want with perfect ease
and freedom from exhausting fatigue,
and am a strong, healthy woman, for
which blessed change Postum and right
living get the credit." Name given by
Postnm Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

VOTE FOR RUSSELL SITE
EIGHTH WARD CITIZENS EXPRESS
OPINIONS ON LOCATION OF A
NEW HIGH SCHOOL.
By a vote of 39 to 9, the mass meet
ing held at the Grace Presbyterian
church last evening, decided in favor
of the Russell property at Hennepin
and Twenty-eighth street as the best
site for the fifth high school. A com
mittee consisting of A. H. wignt,
Henry C. Hanke, Stewart Gamble, O.
F. Stafford, L. T. Lincoln, J. E. Mey
ers, C. F. E. Peterson, A. Denuon and
Dr J. W. Penberthy, was named to
present the matter to the attention of
the board of education and look after
the interests of that particular section
of the city including Shadyside, Ken
wood, Lake of the Isles and contigu
ous territory.
The opposition was ^represented oy
J. N. Norris, who spoke in favor of a
site at Emerson avenue and Ihirty
second street. He urged in favor of
the latter location that it was more
central to the district to be served
and could be secured for half the price
of the Eussell tract. It was not on a
streetcar line, but was easily accessible
from three lines. The Russell tract,
aside from not being central, had the
Hennepin' car lines front and the
Milwaukee tracks on one side.
Various speakers contended that tne
Emerson site was not large enough to
nv playgrounds, which, they said, was
an important matter, .and toe railway
tracks were not a detriment to the Rus
sell tract, as they would probably be
removed within two years. L. Little
declared that plans were already un
der way for such a step. Judge J. J.
Steele, Henry C. Hanke, O. W. ."Stafford
and other speakers upheld the advan
tages of the Russell site.
The Eighth Ward Improvement as
sociation, which is strong for the Em
erson avenue location, will hold a mass
meeting this week and will appoint
committee to appear before the school
J. H. Steele presided last
evening and E. J. Foster acted as sec
retary. FAMOUS NORWEGIAN
COMES TO LECTURE
Erline Biornson, a son of Norway's
distinguished poet and patriot B3orn
stierne Biornson, reached the twin
citfes yesterday. He will be the guest
of Co/sul E. II. Hobe, at the Minnesota
club, St. Paul, for a few days before
coming to Minneapolis. He is an ag
ronom," or graduate of an agricultural
college, and tts public writings and ad
dresses have been on agricultural sub
jects, in which he is greatly interested.
On his travels thruout the United
States he takes great interest in visit
ing agricultural institutions and study
ing the conditions.
But, Mr Bjornson's chief purpose
visiting America is to tell his former
countrymen of the great events of last
year -wrlieii Norway severed the union
with Sweden and secured a royal family
of its own.
Mr. Bjornson is familiar with the
political developments in Norway dur
ing the last year and particularly the
military operations which the govern
ment carefully concealed while they
were in progress. His lectures are
illustrated by about 100 lantern slides,
showing the' daily life of the frontier
guards, the arrival of the royal family
in Norway, picturesque scenes from va
rious sections and the famous men of
the country.
He will lecture at Minneapolis, next
Friday evening at Dania hall.
SHOWS THE SEGRETS OF
WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY
Sidelights on wireless telegraphy and
its inventor, Marconi, were interesting
ly presented last night in Auditorium
hall by H. G. Robinson, who has charge
of the Marconi exhibit here. The
announcement of the lecture brought
out hundreds, and the hall was filled to
capacity. The principles of wireless
telegraphy were explained without go
ing into the mass of technical detail.
Interesting experiments and tests of
operation were given with the appa
ratus, proving the wonderful conimer
cial and practical possibilities of the
discovery. Things that seemed abso
lutely impossible before its discovery,
the communication with shins at sea
and trains traveling at high spMO,
were explained and demonstrated^
An interesting feature of the talk
was the personal sketch of Marconi,
the young inventor, who struggled
against great odds for years in search
of his new principle and. in perfecting
it after its discovery.
SCOTCH PREAGHER OPENS
THE R1BLE CONFERENCE
Dr. John Robertson of Glasgow,
Scotland, opened the interdenomina
tional Bible conference with a meetings
at Hennepin Avenue Methodist church.
The main auditorium was well filled.
Dr. Fayette L. Thompson presided.
Rev. L. T. Guild made a brief intro
ductory address. Dr. Robertson then
spoke the rest of the service. He out
lined the purpose of the conference,
which is to deepen and strengthen the
spiritual life. This aim will be kept
in view in as practical and helpful a
manner as possible. Dr. Robertson de
clared that nature in a degenerate man
is dead, and the first touch of God is
a realization of this fact. "God par
alyzes," he said, "and sends the sense
of paralysis that we may turn to him
for rejuvenation."
At the First Baptist church last
evening Dr. Robertson was greeted by
a rather small congregation, but, one
that was deeply interested in the serv
ice. Dr. Robertson gave, an eloquent
address, in which he likened the prog
ress of human life to climbing- a hill,
and took as an example a body of men
who started to climb one of the high
est peaks in the Alps, but because they
not do so in a few hours, gave up
in despair. At the conclusion of his
address he passed among the audience
and to each who desired to lead a bet
ter life he gave a small book which he
said he had written and which con
tained the words he would say to each
in a private conference.

THE MINNEAJPOLIS^OURNAL.
It is a distinct pleasure to inform the public that this
paper has obtained exclusive rights to publish anew series
of stories which Mr. Ade is writing on his experiences and
observations in Europe.
For years Mr. Ade has devoted his time entirely to
writing plays. Hundreds of thousands of persons, old and
young, who laughed over his clever "Fables in Slang" and
other stories, have since been going tohear his plays, be-
cause they wanted to hear everything this talented writer
had to say. But the plays come far apart and only to the
larger cities, and thousands have been unable to hear him.
Everyone has been regretting that Mr. Ade has ceased writ-
ing stories-r-but of course he couldn't be blamed, for royal-
ties from packed houses were worth working for.
Now, however, Mr. Ade has gone "across the pond"
for rest and recreation. Before his departure The Sunday

eoreAde
Journal's representative in New York argued with him that
all Americans would be eager to read about European
things as he saw them. Finally he consented to write a
series of stories on his experiences and observations, and
to send them on for publication, one each week Mr. Ade
reserves the copyright on these stories, for they will be
published in book form when they are finished.
His first story, which will be published next Sunday,
will prove that George Ade is still George Adethe same
close observer of human nature, the same man who sees
the bright side of life, the same facile writer with the same
graphic, humorous style. There will be bushels of fun in
his stories, all of them, but Ade is always true to life
that's been the secret of his success^and those who read
what he writes about Europe will have a clearer conception
of the people and conditions across the Atlantic.
