ARE CROSS EYES CURABLE ?
D. J. W. Thompson, St. Paul Eye and Ear
Infirmary, St. Paul, Minn.—Dear Doctor:
My eyes were so badly crossed that they
were a great source of deformity. The
many doctors I consulted told me the
contraction was of such a nature there
was no heip. By the advice of friends 1
• called on you. After your examination
you assured me you could correct the
deformity. Such a transformation! In
less than twenty minutts you completely
straightened my eyes, making such a
change my most intimate friends could
hardly realize in me the same person. I
shall ever recommend you as the only
doctor that can straighten cross-eyes.
Yours truly, NELLIE KiMMET. Hidel
berg, Minn.
Why be victimised by home treatment?
Our new method, which can only be used
at the Infirmary, is always a sure cure.

SECRETARY ROSING AXD THEAS
IUUK KOEIt\KK BACK: FROM
KASTEK.V TRIP
WENT ON BUSINESS MISSION
All They Heard Politically Was En
coanislus to Hemocvafs-I'co
ple An Weary of
Trnst Rale.
Secretary L. A. Rosing and State
Treasurer Koerner returned from an ex
tended trip through the East at noon
yesterday. Going by way of New York
to Virginia, where they were called on
official business, they visited the ancient
Confederate capital and Its historical
surroundings, and returned to St. Paul
by way of Chicago.
At the governor's office yesterday Mr.
Rosing- had something to say concerning
'.lie political situation in the East.
"'<'ur trip was purely one of business,"
he ;-aid. "but the atmosphere |n the Bast
Is so surcharged with politics that we
heard enough -to say that the situation
is all one of encouragement to the De
ir.o<racy. On an Eastern train we met
a merchant from Connecticut—evidently
a conservative and Intelligent business
man. After discussing busim .;s matters
generally we drifted Into politics, and I
asked him what he believed were the
prospects of the Democrats in the New
Kngland states. He said: 'My belief Is
that New Kngland will go about as it
did the last time. But New York Is the
doubtful state In '.he East this year. It
is poorl fighting ground the way things
look now, and it is impossible to toll
just how it wiil go. 1 Such an expression,
from the source it tame, 1 consider a
pretty good indication for the Demo
crats."
'What about Maryland and the Vir
ginias?"
Joinod the Elks" in that fine tenor which
he possesses. It has made such a hit
with the members of the order, as wi-11
as !ho.':e who like an easy, swinging air
that the Globe secured a number of
copies for use in St. Paul during the
ng fete. Special permission has been
secured from Mt. Newman, by the
ii lube, to have the song sprung In St
Paul by Mr. H. P. Hall, who is expect
i stand on a small platform at the
Exchange street entrar.ee to the grounds
"Safely peniocrjLtlc. Kentucky will be
in line this year, without any doubt.
There is good feeling among the Demo
crats everrwhera, and that always au
gjurs well for cur party."
"Anything about Illinois or Indiana?"
"1 learned that the Democrats were
hard at vvcrk in Indiana arid that they
wero confident of winning tiio stat-j.
They have had a good example of the
unlawful urbanization and operation of
in-; trusts djwn there, one of them, a
I>U steel combine, having openly defied
the governor at the state and other 1c
;- illy constituted authorities, and, I gue-s
the party of trusts and combines will
noi fare will In that commonwealth this
j i :ir."
i'ow is the Bryan sentiment?"
"It le practically unanimous every
where. Tho Question still hangs on the
vice presidential choice, but Bryan al
ready has CSO votes pledged, when all
thai is necessary to nominate him is 620.
They are instructing for Bryan right
a lung everywhere. 1 think there is not
the least doubt that Illinois will tend a
solid Hryan delegation to the conven
tion."
The purpose of the trip tiiken by the
two state officials was explained by
Treasurer K»errier. who said:
"Wo went to complete the exchange of
$s". 0,000 worth of coupon bonds of the
state of Virginia for registered bonds.
The securities belong to the school fund,
and it was thought safer to have regis
tered securities."

Satisfaction Is expressed at Democratic
headquarters, St. Paul, at reports receiv
ed of county conventions on the 14th

sound, and' men only will be honored
with .selection for the national ''GnvPn

TRAXSACTIOK
HEIfISiEPIfT COITRT DECISION
It Award* the Kelly Bsta.te
and th« Naaaer Heira the 11.-nt
of MorlKUKi'd Prop
erty.
Judge Brooks yesterday handed down a
decision in the case of Jacob J. Eseh,
special administrator of the estate ot
James J. Kelly, against John B. St. Au
bln. Max Nusser, admlnstrator of the es
tate of John Nusser. and others. The cen
tral figure of the case, which has been
tried several timos, is W. F. Bick<>!, of
the defunct Minnesota Savings Bank of
St. Paul. The validity of several notes
and receipts given by Nusser to Bickel
were attacked. While the face of this
paper showed loans amounting to $8,000,
It was contended that Nusser received
but $240.02, and this contention Is up
held by the court. The defendants
claimed the notes were altered after they
were given Bickel or the bank. There
were four claimants to the notes, which
were secured by mortgages on valuable
property, which Nusser assigned to
Bickel and which he In turn, in August.
1899, assigned to Kelly, who died a month
later.
Suit was brought by the administrator
of Kelly and the main Issue was th*
amount of money loaned Nusser by
Bickel.
The plaintiff, the receiver of the bank,
and Hazel Bickel claimed that the face
value of the receipts was loaned to Nus
ser, while the heirs of the latter and the
Judgment creditors claimed that only
, $240.03 was received by him.
