Maybe the grocer is "just out of Ivory Soap but has
another, he thinks, is just as good." No other soap is
just as good. Insist that he get Ivory Soap for you.
A WORD OF WARNING.—There are many white soaps, each represented to be "just as gc^d
as the 'Ivory';" they ARE NOT. but like ail counterfeits, lack the peculiar and remarkable qualities£f
t»ie '•ezi.Mne. Ask for "Ivory " Soap and insist upon getting it.

The action of the city council in amend
in;; and passing the resolution affecting
th.- employment of union labor on all city
v.i.rk is a topic "now being vigorously dis
etifsed by the members of various unions
of organized labor. The original resolu
tion, introduced by Aid. Bantz, provided
thai all stone work for city purposes
should be tut by union labor. A com
mittee of tlu- assembly amended this to
Include al city work, with the proviso
";if far as practicable." Some of the
tr;i(ies union people contend that ths
adtJefi clause is a string- by which such
v.iik can be manipulated to suit the
wishes of the board of public works. They
art. afraid that the proviso will operate
againsi the unions, as providing a loop
hole through the means of which the in
dent of the resolution can be easily
e'vndod. Others are more conservative.
They say that if honestly administered
the proviso can work no injury to or
£;!nized labor. They say, also, that there
are some kinds of work, such as certain
lines of decorating, sculpture, etc., that
might, necessarily, have to be taken out
of lit.' hands of union men. In this
event the council would be considerably
handicapped if the strict letter of the
ordinance were exacted, and the matter
carried Into the courts by the unions.
A majority of union' members siy
th::i all they desire is fairness, and that
if the board of public works honestly and
fairly carries out the provisions of tha
resolution it is all they can reasonably
ask. The action of the assembly in in
cluding all lines of city work, where only
th< stone cutters were mentioned in the
original resolution, Is commented upon
favorably.

Blacksmiths' Union No. 43 met last
night in Hall No. 1, Assembly rooms.
There was a thin attendance, owing,
doubtless, to the disagreeable weather.
But little business was transacted, and
that purely of a routine character. Ow
ing to the fact that the Great Western
shops are to be removed to Oelwein, 10.,
a considerable number of blacksmiths
are likely to leave the city. This con
tingency was the subject of the evening's
discussion. A number of blacksmiths
will go along with the shops.

IHK ST. PAUL GLOBE, WEDNESDAY, MAY 17, 1899.
BY REED AND STRING
WKHK MELODY EVOKED AT PARIC
CONGREGATIONAL. CHURCH
ixAST NIGHT
SOCIETY IN A SPRING STORM
Indoor Gayettes Suffered From the
I>ei>ren<«liitt Influences of the
({loom Without, but There Were
. 11 Number of Happy Event*—
Social Circle of the People's
. Church Gave a Parlor Party.
Any one who ventured out in the ex
ecrable weather :he weather man saw fit
to visit on a too tolerant public last night
certainly deserved a reward for his effort.
If he or she were among the fortunate
ones at the Park Congregational church,
the reward followed more swiftly upon
the action than is usually found to be
the case in this mundane sphere, for the
concert given under the direction of
Claude Madden and W. Rhys-Herbert
was enjoyable enough to make onu forget
the warring of the elements, the wind
and the rain.
The programme was made up largely
of organ and vi'jlin numbers with two
\ocal selections by a male chorus of ten
voices and some solos by Master Morris
Jeffrey, soprano. Mr. M. L. Melntirc,
who was to have sung, was prevented
from being present.
The opening number was t.n organ solo,
Guilmant's sixth sonata, by Alfred Wil
lard. The organ might have been in bet
ter condition last evening, but Mr. Wil
lard's creditable playing triumphed over
all difficulties the refractory instrument
presented. The three parts, allegro con
luoco, meditation (adante 'jua^i adagio)
and fugue et adagio, were characteris
tically interpreted, the meditation espec
ially being played with a quiet strength
that made it deeply impressive. Mr.
Willard had two oth«r solos, a cradle song
In D flat, by Salome, and B'.irlesca c mel
odia, by Ralph Baldwin. The former, a
ttnder melody, was interpreted with a
delicacy of touch and tone that made it
most acceptable, while the second number
drew a certain rollicking touch from the
organ that one would scarcely believe
lay hidden there. The numbers were
v. arrnly applauded.
Claude Madden, violinist, has so often
delighted a St. Paul audience with his
creditable playing that any extended
commentary seems almost superfluous.
Besides the careful and precise reading
which this violinist always gives, he in
fuses into hi? music a touch of ihe fan
tastic, the bizarre, that always seems
necessary to make the real music of the
fiddle.
Mr. Madden and Mr. Willard were
heard in two violin and organ arrange
ments. The first liumbei- was one of
Rheinberger's in three parts, Fraeludlum,
Allemande and Gigue. The second was
a composition of Mr. Maddens, "Invoca
tion," full of fine melody, n.U the sweeter
because it expre3s?d depth of sadness
that made the violin almost a wailing
human voice.
Bach's concerto in D was nlayed by Mr.
Madden, accompanied on the second vio
lin by Mr. Bergh, with Mr. Rhys-Herbert
at the piano. The three movements were
finely rendered.
An "Easter Song" with organ accom
paniment by Mr. Rhys-Herbert, was sung
by a male chorus of ten voices. For a
final number the chorus sang "To All
the Ladies in the Land," by Callcott. Mas
ter Morris Jeffrey's sweet soprano voice
was heard to advantage in his two num
bers, "By the Berks of Endermay,"
Lehmann. and an old Welsh air, "The
Blackbird." He was forced to respond to
an encore.

TO TRIM THE MILITIA
CAPT. MONFORTS REPORT MAY
•HOW TEN COMPANIES DESERV
ING DISBANDMENT
ST. PAUL LIKELY TO LOSE ONE
Gen. Bend Intimate* That Thin City
Uiim One of the Weak Organiza
tion*— R«Bult "Will Not Doubt Be
the Dlaaolntlon of the Fourth
Regrlment at a Date to Be Se
lected In the Near Future.
The national guard inspection now be
ing conducted by Capt. Monfort will
eventually result in the absorption of the
Fourth regiment. This is the opinion of
Gen. Bend, and Is shared by many nation
al guard men, although there ia nothing
certain, as the matter rests wholly with
the governor. However, the views of
the national guard officers are usually
consulted in such matters.
In the Second regiment there are six
companies that will average an inspec
tion above 65 per cent, and in the Third
regiment seven companies will pass mus
ter. The Fourth regiment will turn out
seven companies, which will make for the
three regiments twenty good companies,
or enough for two full regiments of ten
companies each. When the Thirteenth
regiment returns from Manila it will fill
in and complete the organization of the
national guard, making three regiments
of ten companies each.
The companies of the Fourth regiment
that pass the inspection will no doubt
be willing to go into either the Second or
Third regiment, aa the new law makes
the Fourth a reserve regiment as soon
as the Thirteenth returns, and as a re
serve regiment it will receive no appro
priation from the state.
"I can't say what the governor will
do," said Gen. Bend yesterday, "but as
the law only makes provision for thirty
companies it will be impossible for us
to maintain the organization of more
than that number. When Capt. Mont
fort completes the inspection we will be
able to arrive at some definite conclu
sions. I have always maintained that
any company receiving less than 65 per
cent on Inspection should be mustered
out. If the weak companies now in the
Fourth and Second and Third are mus
tered out, as they should be, we will
have Just enough companies for two full
regiments. When the Thirteenth returns,
they, of course, will want some rest, but
I think by next fall they will be back in
their old places in the state national
guard again. By weeding out these weak
sister companies, we will, after the Thir
teenth has been discharged from the
service of the United States, have one
of the best national guard organizations
in the country. 1 do n*t care at this
time to say which are the weak com
panies, as Capt. Monforfs report will
review fully the condition of every com
pany.
"The state appropriates $50,000 per year
far the guard. This gives each company
appioximately $1,700, on a basis of thirty
companies, i se"e no reason why the
state should pay this appropriation to
inanimate companies, when there are
companies that are deserving of all that
the state allyws them.
"Two companies of the old guard will
be mustered out within ten days, and
ethers will follow after the report of the
mustering officer has been received. Com
pany D, of Fairmont, will be mustered
out, and Company F, Third regiment, is
practically out of the service. In Min
neapolis there are three good companies,
and one that will probably not remain
long In the guard. In St. Paul we have
one good company and one poor one.
"All of these will be weeded out, and
the ultimate result -will doubtless be that
of an absorption of the remaining com
panies of the Fourth in the Second and
Third, to take the place of some of the
older companies which are mustered
out."

A married lady, forty-two years old, living in Centre
ville, Md., asserts that she had found her existence almost
intolerable. She says : " Every one knows what a great
sufferer I have been from dyspepsia. I have had it all
my life. I have it fn every way. I have had it so bad
that ;at times life has been unendurable. I have tried
almost everything I have heard of, but find that Ripans
Tabules have done me more good than anything I ever
tried. I never want ;to be without them. I wish every
sufferer from dyspepsia would take them. Nothing else
can take the place of them to me." .
