6T. PAUL. MANUFACTURERS HAVE
A HAND IN BUILDING TRANS
SIBERIAN RAILROAD
SUPPLIES SENT TO THE MIKADO
Few Sections of the Globe Where
Products of the Industries
of St. Paul Do
Not Go.
Products of the many and varied In
dustries of St. Paul a-re, of course, to
K. found 'n all pans of the civilised
world, but it is doubtful whether any of
them can be found in such remote and
Inaccessible regions as the hoists and
d.„*i ricks made in this city have penetrat
ed. It will be news to most of the peo
ple living in this city to learn that der
ricks made in St. Paul are being used
on construction work for the Trans Sibe
rian railroad. Ten of moderate power
were sold to Russian contractors for this
purpose a few months ago, and previous
ti>' *.his time two or three had been pur
chased for purposes of experiment. They
Were found to be far more satisfactory
th..n tie cumbrous appllan n s there,
for railroad work and bridge work, and
a further supply was obtained.
Not only the Russians, but also the
i regressive litt'.e Japanese have come to
St. Paul for derricks, and in the last six [
or seven years quite a number have been
sent to the land of the Mikalo. These
too, for the most part, are being used on !
heavy bridge work, but less than a year I
ago the government purchased two to be !
used In the building of an imperial palace !
lit Tokio. This palace Is not the one in |
which the Mikado Is to reside, but one
which Is destined for the housing of dis- j
tinguished guests of the empire. Pre
pious to the employment of tre e derr <K3 |
the Japanese knew little of the immense ,
caving of time and labor which their use
re nders possible, and doubtless the dlmin- !
utlva coolies viewed with astonishm nt
the ease with which the strange looking !
machines performed the work that they :
had been used to seeing done by sheer '
force of the muscular power of a horde j
of laborers, or by the cmploym- nt of an- j
tiquated and out of date machines of j
English manufacture.
The greatest foreign market for St
Paul derricks is not, however, In either
of these two countries, but in Norway
and Sweden, almost a tenth of the output
of the works going that way. One of the
officers of the company, in discuss the
foreign business of his house, said that
the amount of American machinery pur
chased by European countries constituted
a fair index of their intelligence and pro
gress! veness. Just at present it appears
that the northern countries are the ones
entitled to the palm by this test, and
the two Scandinavian kingdoms are far
ahead of their neighbors In this respect.
Practically no machinery of American
manufacture goes to any of the Medi
terranean countries, and particularly i?
th s true of S} am and Portugal, and those
are the two which are furthest behind.
Germany and Great Britain do not come
into the comparison at all, for in both of
these machinery of mode n design is
made and exported.
Statistics furnished by American con
suls In all parts of Europe demonstrate
that In spite of the distance of the mar
ket to them, the American mamif icturers
are every year cutting into English and
German territory and are underselling
them* on their home grounds.
REV. MR. FLODEN TALKS.
Chaplain to Swedish King Addresses
Commercial Clan.
An address was delivered before the
Commercial club at the noon recess yes
terday by the Rev. K. Gustav Floden,
chaplain to the king of Sweden, and who
owns the title to a mountain of granite
supposed to be of fabulous wealth.
The remarks of Rev. Floden, who does
not speak English, were interpreted by
Rev. Dr. Lofgren, of this city, and they
were of a congratulatory character,
ring on the observations made by the
visitor during a tour of this country.
He expressed himself as especially
amazed and pleased at the vast agricul
tural and Industrial resources of the
United States, which he thought led all
other countries in these and many other
sports. Rev. Mr. Floden is trvlng to
Interest American capitalists in the de
velopment of his great granite enter

There are people who sr.y that the
benefit derived from the use of put-up
E!e*iicines is imaginary. It is not the
case with Dr. Pierces Favorite Prescrip
tion, which makes weak-.women strong
and sick women well. A woman nay
imagine she's weak, or may fancy she's
e.'ck, but her imagination can't add forty
pounds t» her weight. The positive
proof of the curative power of " Favorite
Prescription " is found in the restoration
of health which is recorded in face and
form, of strength which can be tested,
and weight which can be registered in
pounds and ounces.
The general health of women is so
intimately connected with the local
health of the womanly organs ' that
when these are diseased the whole body
a ;ffers loss. Dr. Pierces Favorite Pre
scription cures womanly diseases. It
establishes regularity, stops weakening
drains, heals inflammation and ulcera
tion and cures femalo weakness.
"I bib very glad to let other peer sufferers
know what Dr. Pierces medicines have done
for Hie," writes Mrs. Edwin H. Gardner, of
P^-«chwood, Norfolk Co., Mas*. (Box 7».) "You
know I wrote to you last summer. I raid what
your medicine had done for other people, so
thought I would try it, aad I found it was a
blessing to me and my family. I began in Jane
-.'.A took six bottles of yoar medicine, and three
vials of 'Pellets.' I took your-medicrae a year
when I had a ten-pound girl. I had the easiest
time I ever had with any of ray three children.
1 have been very well since I toot your medi
cine. I took three bottles of ' Favorite Frescrin
ti'>a,' three of ' Golden Medical Discovery.' and
three vials of 'Pellets.' I had no appetite and
could not eat much without it distressing me
before I took yonr ' Favorite Prescription,' aad I
only weighed 135 pound*. Now I weigh 175."

ST. PAUL IS RAPIDLY ADVANCING
AS A CIGAR MANUFACTUR
ING CENTER
ACTIVE DISTRIBUTING ' POINT
Supplies Vast Western Territory
With Raw Material, as Well
as Manufactured Z"*
Goods.
Aniong the list of rapidly growing in- |
I dustries in this city none has of late ;
: years developed so quickly, as that of '■
■ leaf tobacco and cigar making. Five '
I years ago almost all the cigars smoked ,
between the .Great Lakes and the north j
| Pacific coast were made in Chicago, and j
I the local wholesale, leaf business was ,
j comparatively, insignificant. Now Chi- !
! cago has been forced out of the terri- !
tory between Milwaukee and the coast \
I and St. Paul products have taken their
} place. A large majority ' of the cigar
houses in all this territory get their raw
material from St. Paul leaf firms.
The phenomenal growth of this olty
as a tobacco distributing center Is shown
by the fact that so far this year there
"has been imported into this city an
amount of leaf tobacco equal to one- '
third of the entire quantity imported j
into Chicago last. year. Chicago is one j
of the largest tobacco centers in the |
United States, and the fact that St. Paul j
imports aTe gaining rapidly on those |
of the Windy city indicates how rapidly
the local business is growing.
At the two largest factories in the city .
last- year nearly 12,000.000 cigars were j
made, COOO.OOO in one and 5,500,000 in the j
other. The total number of cigars made j
in these and other city factories dur
ing the last twelve months will approx
imate 20,000,000. The number of cigar
makers employed in St. Paul is about
500, and altogether about a thousand i
persons derive their living from ths I
wholesale tobacco business.
In Minnesota there are factories in al
most every town of ever 800 inhabitants,
and all of these buy their supplies In
St. Paul.
One thousand bales of Havana fillers
have been Imported from Cuba in the
last three months, while the Sumatra
wrappers used here are imported from
Amsterdam, from which place the en
tire Sumatra crop Is distributed.

About twenty West side citizens met
last night in the offices of E. A. Thlem.
145 South Wabasha, and the preliminary
steps toward organizing a West Side Im
provement association were taken. The
temporary organization Includes ex-
Mayor Doran, president, and Judge E.

A number of matters of interest to
West side taxpayers were discussed,
among them the spur track, which the
Omaha road desires to build, find the
necessity for paving South Wabasha

Committees were appointed to wait on
W. A. Scott, of the Omaha, and on the
board of aldermen. A committee on per
manent organization was also appointed.
Several previous attempts have been
made to form an improvement associa

The Kind of Food Used by Athletes.
A former college athlete, one of the
long distance runners, began to lose hl3
power of endurance. His experience
with a change In food is interesting.
"While I was in training on the track
athletic team, my daily 'jogs' became a
task until after I was put on Grape-
Nuts Food for two meals a day. After
using the Food for two weeks 1 felt like
a new man. My digestion was perfect,
nerves steady and I was full of energy.
"I trained for the mile and the halt
mile runs (those events which require so
much endurance) and then the long dally
'jogs,' which before had been such a
task, wero clipped off with ease. I won
both events. -Jl^.^
"The Grape-Nuts Food put me in per
fect cpnditlon and gave me my 'ginger.'
Not only was my physical condition
made perfect,- and my weight increased,
but my mind was made clear and vigor
ous so that I could get out my studies
in about naif the time ; formerly re
quired. Now most all of the University
men use Grape-Nuts, for they hare
learned its value, but I think my VB**
mony will not be amiss . and may per
haps help some one to learn how the best
results can be obtained. Please do not
publish my name."
There Is ai reason for the effect of
Grape-Nuts Food on the human body
and brain. The certain elements In
wheat and barley are selected with spe
cial reference to their power for rebuild
ing the brain and nerve centers. The
product is then carefully and scientifical
ly prepared to as to make It- easy of
digestion. The physical and mental re
sults are so apparent after two or three
weeks' use as to produce a profound im
pression. Th© Food can be secured at
any first class grocery store*
brought against the proper party, as it
should have been brought against the
local manager; and, in the second place,
the title was not correct. In making up
the title the word company had been left
out and the rest of the title was abbrevi
ated i in«such a manner that* one would
have to get a directory te find out what
it meant. Even the abbreviation fur
mortgage was not correct. The sum
mons was served on the attorney for the*
company, while according to law it should
have been served on the local '■ mana
ger. ■ ■:.■ f»* ■ • '•'
The case as a whole was very,, compli

and Board—Both Want
Children.; '■-'■
Judge Lewis In the district court at
special term yesterday heard testimony
in the divorce case of Emma Baker
against William Baker. The matter
came up on an application of the plain
tiff for the custody of the two children,
for $25 attorneys' fees and for $4« per
month alimony during the pendency of
this suit. The application was warmly
contested by Mr. Baker, through his*
attorney, J. M. Hawthorne, while on the
ether hand, A. G. Brlggs was just as
active in arguing the case of the plain
tiff. After listening to the arguments
and the reading of several affidavits by
Mr. Hawthorne, Judge Lewis took the
matter of attorneys' fees and alimony
tinder consideration, and Issued an order
giving the custody of the children to the
defendant while -the suit Is pending.
They were married in St. Paul on Oct.
1. 1899, and her maiden name was Emma
Toting. The plaintiff is twenty-nine
years old and the defendant thirty-four.
In her complaint she charges cruel and
inhuman treatment and cites an Instance
where she alleges that he beat ana
chokeel her.
On the other hand, in the answer and
affidavits filed by Mr. Baker, he alleges
that, at one time, she went to Spokane,
Wash., and remained away for over
seven months. While she was away he
kept the children with their grand
mother, Mrs. W. H. Baker, at 691 St.
Peter street, and took the best of care
of them. Continuing, he says, that he
rent them to school and also to Sunday
school at the Central Presbyterian
church. This was net all, however, for,
according to Mr. Baker in his affidavits,
when his wife came back she got pos
session of all letters she had written to
her husband and destroyed them. The
defendant also alleges that while she
was in Spokane she posed as a single
woman, and went under the name of
Dorothy Baker. Whvn rhe came back
she told her husband that he had beer*
pood to her, but she did not love him
Stay longer and wanted to go back to
Spokane. The defendant also alleges
that she deserted him on April 2 last.
On May 9 last, he alleges, that she
took their eight-year-old boy to her sis
ter's, and that he went after the hoy.
She refused to give the boy up and he
pushed her aslda and took possession
of their son. He denies that he struck
her and choked her as she charges In
the complaint. He alleges, moreover,
that he has been a dutiful and kind
•husband, turning over to his wife all
but 15 of hie salary every month, and
that he frequently helped her ln her
household duties. Another serious charge
that he makes against tine plaintiff la
that she' frequently used to swear at
the children and would unmercifully beat
them. .;.-".-.-..:. "■.;=>"
In arguing the case yesterday Attorney
Hawthorne, for the defendant, contended
that the plaintiff was not entitled to get
alimony or attorney's fees pending the
litigation en the ground that she had
deserted him, and that the defendant
cannot be compelled to support his wife
when she has. left his bed and board
against his wishes.
The plaintiff is suing for a separation,
not an absolute divorce.
Objected to Reduced Fees.
Judge "Otis in fibs district court at a
special term yesterday took under ad
