TO CURE THE GRIP.
Advice of a Famous Physician.
First and foremost, REST.
Take care of yourself. Your already
weakened nerves want rest, and must
have it. If the attack Is severe, go to
bed and remain there. More fatalities
result from the neglect of this precau
tion than from any other cause.
Eat sparingly. Your digestive organs
are in no condition to take care of large
quantities of food. —
Drink plenty of pure, cold water. It
allays the fever, stimulates the kidneys
to action and opens up the pores of the
skin. Keep the bowels open with Dr.
Miles' Nerve and Liver Pills.
Take three doses of Dr. Miles' Nervine
per day, and if you cannot .sleep take an
extra dose at bedtime. To further con
trol the fever, and to overcome the pe
culiar aches and pains of grip, use Dr.
Miles' Pain Pills. They act quickly and
effectually, and no bad effects . result
from their use. These remedies have
been thoroughly tested more than a
million times, and their efficiency is thor
oughly established. They never fall to
give relief.
Dr. Miles' Remedies can be found at
any drug store, and they are sold on
a positive guarantee that first bottle or
package benefits or money refunded.

So Much Trouble—Case
■:.; Ik Not Ended.
The Cunningham divorce, case is still
on before Judge Lewis, of the district
court, and the present indications are
that it will not be finished until Monday
afternoon. "When court adjourned yes-,
tcrday afternoon William Cunningham,"
the defendant in the case, was still on
the stand, being cross-examined by At
torney Durment. for the plaintiff.
The answers of Mr. Cunningham to
the questions put by Mr. Durment, were
a continual repetition of the word "No"
except in some instances where he stop
ped to explain. The substance of Mr.
Cunningham's testimony was a general
denial of the charges made. by his wife.
The defendant said that he had never
threatened to kill his family, but ad
mitted that he might have said with all
his trouble, that he might as well be
dead as alive. Asked as to whether or
not he had threatened to kill the plaintiff
and her attorney, Mr. Durment, in the
event that the suit of his wife was suc
cessful, Mr. Cunningham stated that he
had not, but as to Durment, he would
say that he ought to be killed. . His wife
had run all over town trying to find a'
lawyer and could- not get one, until she
got Durment. Witness stated that he
had signed the pledge just to please his
wife, who was .all \ the time saying to
him: "You're drunk." ' Continuing he
said that he was not drunk at the time
lie signed the pledge.
As to telling "his wife that' he had
$20,000 in notes, concealed . from his
creditors, he had never done anything ot
that sort. He had. told her that his book
accounts would turn out well, $20,000 or
possibly $25,000. In regard to the break
ing of the telephone, witness said it had
happened one day when he was angry
about some business matters. He had
tried to get some one over the telephone,
and after having tried again and again
for some time, and not being able to get
the person he wanted, he had "taken
the 'phone down and deposited it in the
back yard."
Mr. Cunningham also told of coming
into the bath room and finding his wife
pounding their little boy, Johnny, with
a strap. He denied laying hands on her
at that time, and said that she flew at
him, causing him to use some vile
language.
_ho case is attracting a number of
people, and the court room is crowded
every day. The trial will be resumed at
10 o'clock this morning.
Mother Gets the Boy.
The case of Lavlnia Hepburn, of Chi
cago, against George Hepburn, of this
city, has been settled out of court, and
the habeas corpus proceedings brought
by the plaintiff to secure possession of
their little boy dropped. By the settle
ment entered Into by both, parties the
custody of the boy Is. given to the
mother. -

The Jury in the personal injury case of
August Olson against the Great Northern

that he .was terribly bruised.

Members of the water board are de
termined to have the money due their de
partment for water used in the schools.
The board of school inspectors use to

SCHOOL BOARD VACANCIES.
Mayor Smith. Will Nominate Three*
New Members Today.
Mayor Smith will today nominate three
persons to fill vacancies on the school
board. Just who these will, be is not
known, as the mayor was yesterday not
inclined to name his selections in ad
vance of the appointments. It is known,
however, that the choice lies between
four gentlemen and these are Messrs.
J. W. L. Corning, Octave Savard, W. H.
Egan and Pierce Butler. .
Mr. Butler stated last night that he
had received no intimation that he was
about to be nominated, and'felt sure that
the mayor had no intention of appointing
him. It is generally thought that the
three appointees will be found among
the four names; mentioned- above.
"In view of the cry for non-partisan ap
pointments, the mayor has made a state
ment to the effect that, so far, on all of
the bodies for which he has been called
upon to fill vacancies the members have
been exclusively Republicans. He there
fore feels It his duty to appoint Demo
crats until an equality has been establish
ed in this resnect.

IN A COMMODIOUS HOME
BUILD-BRA* . EXCHANGE . SECURES
QUARTERS IN HYAN BLOCK.
A new organization which will use its
influence in promoting the welfare of
the city is the Builders' exchange, or
ganized Dec. 4, 1900, with a membership
of 100 of the leading contractors and
supply houses lof St. Paul engaged In
various, lines of business pertaining to
building. . v
The exchange has Just moved Into its
new quarters on the sixth floor of the
Ryan building, at the corner of Seventh
and Robert streets.' It occupies 2,200
square feet of floor space which Is di
vided into six rooms—an assembly room,
3T> feet square; a plan room, 20 feet
square, and four committee rooms and
offices. The walls of the assembly hall
are handsomely decorated and the room
furnished with heavy oak and leather
furniture. Carpets ln keeping with the
furniture and decorations cover the
floor, making one of the finest rooms of
its kind in the city. The plan and com
mittee rooms and offices are decorated
and furnished in keeping with the as
sembly hall. The plan room is fitted
up with two modern draughting tables,
and the other necessary conveniences for
working on plans, the exchange intend
ing to make this room one of Its prin
cipal features by exhibiting there plans
of buildings from various . parts of the
country.
The principal objects of the exchange
are to bring together the contractors and
supply houses of the city and to unite
in advancing one another's interests and
to generally promote the welfare of the
city, to secure information of various
kinds for the benefit of its members, to
keep in touch with all building "which
•would Interest j members and to secure
plans and specifications of. the same for
exhibition in the exchange ; plan room
and to use its influence to bring about a
settlement of differences between em
ployers and employes by endeavoring to
have all disputes settled by arbitration,
thereby preventing the possibility of
strikes or lockouts.
This latter feature Is one of the chief
aims of the exchange, as it feels that
when the possibility of the occurrence of
strikes and lockouts Is done away with
that capital will be attracted to the city,
and that much benefit will thereby inure
to all Its people.

TREATED MANY PATIENTS
IXNITAIi REPORT OW CITY. AND
COUNTY HOSPITAL PRESENTED
BY DR. ANCJtER
SHOWING IS MOST CREDITABLE
In Spite of Many: C«me« of Incurable
". . ■ ■ Ailments, the Institution Can
Boast of* a Splendid V
Record.
The annual report of the city and
county hospital was yesterday submitted,
to the board ;of -control by Dr. A. P.
Ancker. The report covers the affairs
of the hospital until the end of la3t
year.
There were 3.555 applications for admis
sion, and the number admitted 1,765;
births at the hospital, 68; patients under
treatment during the year, 1,986. Of
this number 933 were discharged as well,
603 -reported improved, 90 unimproved,
171 died, and 167 were at the institution
Dec. 31. jrT. - - VVy
There were 34 deaths from consump
tion, 26 from Bright's disease and val
vular heart disease, 16 from malignant
and incurable tumors, 14 from violence,
including railway accidents, .burns and
gunshot wounds. 5 from typhoid, fever,
and 4 each from diphtheria and" suicide.
The average number of days'- stay of
patients was 31; daily average number of
patients, 167; total number of days' treat
ment given in the hospital, 60,857.
The total -cost of maintenance was
$38,380.65, of which the cash expenditure
was $36,292, and the value of produce from
the poor farm $2,058. The receipts dur
ing the year were $15,398.39, leaving th**
total cost to the tax payers for niainten
ance $20,893.85. ;y ■'■■': -■•'• : ; ' .
The cost per patient per week, based
on the gross cost of maintenance, less
cash receipts, was $2.64, and the cost per
patient and ; employe, on the same basis,
$1.94 per week.
The amount of money received by the
hospital from patients In 1890 was $117.
in 1899, $9,4^9.87, and for the last year, $15,
--398.39. .
In a communication accompanying the
report, Dr. Ancker says in part: ."-.TV
It is , with a. considerable degree of
pride that the submission of these static
tics is made to your honorable body a
pride which is. eminently, justified by the
facts disclosed. Under a careful perusal
and comparison, it Is believed that the
record and present condition of the St.
Paul city and County hospital will dem
onstrate that it stands second to no simi
lar institution in the country in point of
equipment, efficiency and economy.
. The general hospital, the maternity
building, and the building occupied by the
department of -crippled and deformed
children are in excellent condition, much
having been done during the year in the
way of painting and plastering, and I
could not reason-ably suggest further im
provements .it this time. It is most un
fortunate that our recent request for an
appropriation for the construction, of a
new and more modern building for the
care and treatments!" contagious diseases
was..ignored. It.is altogether likely: that
11 the public generally understood the
urgent nerd of tuts improvement 5 there
would be no obstacle placed in the vay
of its accomplishment. •- - ■'■■-,-- -■ •;- , ,
Last year we cared for 98 cases of
diphtheria;- 27 • cases i of scarlet 3 fever, 40
cases of measles. 1 of chickenpox and
about'4o cases of erysipelas; all undo-- the
same..roof, in an old and badly arranged
building, saturated:, with the' germs" of
disease. There are about 1 a dozen, rooms
in this building, opening practically ■ono
into another, making the -proper ■or ef
fective classification and isolation of the
patients impossible, the result being that
it has not infrequently-occurred that a
patient who has been admitted for the
treatment of .either^diphtheria or scarlet
fever, Jits: not left the, hospital without
having contracted both maladies. A"'
modern ! structure of the | necessary di
mensions would cost between $20,000 and
$20,C00. § ■■Ir, earestly f recommend that this
matter .be brought before the ■ proper au
thoiities at- an early date. -!:,
A plant for the 'proper disinfection of
the bedding and clothing Is badly need
ed. The most .effectual means of'dis
infection vis. most unquestionably heat,
and, as you know, we are without any
apparatus for this purpose.
.'Permit me again to recommend the es
tablishment of a cooking school in "con
nection with the training school for
nurses. The education of the" nurse is
most incomplete without,it, and the .serv
ices of an instructress in invalid cooking
could Ibe secured at small -expense,? 1 The
training school for nurses,- under its very
efficient head. Mrs. Frances D. Campbell,'
is doing excellent work and, was never in
a more prosperous condition. 'school
.now. consists of twenty-eight pupils,-a 11
ol whom have been carefully 1 selected
from .numerous applicants Last year we
had 12« applications for admission to the
school.: This number is largely In excess
°f that of : any proceeding year. Of the
thirty-five probationers ■-■ received ' and
registered, only % - sixteen - were accepted
The school has-attained to a high stand
ard of excellence and its reputation as
an educational institution has brought
us many applications from a very-ac
ceptable class of young women. - -
During, the latter, part, of the year a
bacteriological and pathological labora
tory, fully equipped and prepared to do
the best kind of work, has-been added to
the hospital. Pathological and bacterlolig
ical research play a necessary and im
portant role in the successful, diagnosis
and treatment, of disease, and there can'
be no doubt about the usefulness of this
addition to the hospital ■ equipment .-Dr
Mabel F. Austin; a graduate of the John
Hopkins University at Baltimore," was ap
pointed bacteriologist and pathologist an
is doing most excellent • work. V- — -
During the year the visiting staff of
physicians and surgeons • has paid about.
3,000 professional visits to the hospital
They have attended about 2,000 patients
and performed 850 operations. Its mem
bers have been earnest and constant in
the performance of their many duties and
our grateful thanks ate due them for the
effective service they have rendered us
The house staff, consisting of six grad
uates of the medical department of the
University of-.Minnesota, Mrs. J TV
Olson. H. C. Stuhr, P. A. Hoff, S" X*
Nelson. P. B. Cook and C. C. Leek, has
rendered us most excellent service.
In peiformance of my duties as city
and county physician I have oeen -ably
assisted by Drs. W. G. Rlcheson. James
S.Giflllan.and Howard B. Weirlck Dr
Weirick resigned on the Ist of October'
They have always been • earnest, faithful
and efficient in the work assigned to
them. It is doubtful that many of our
citizens have any idea of the scope of tho
service of the department outside of the
hospital. With two assistants, -we made
over 10.000 visits and cared for over 12 00.")
applications for relief of the sick and
injured poor at our office.
