Death of A. q. Schleuder.

The death of A. H. Schleuder, :vho
has been confined to his bed with sick
ness for some weeks past, occurred at
his home Saturday evening. Quite a
number of the members of his family and
relatives were present, and his passing
away was easy and quiet.
Mr.. Schleuder was a we'll known resi-
dent of New Ulm and one of long stand
Ing. Born at Callies in Pomerania, Ger
many, on the 18th of January, 1888, he
was consequently fifty three years of age.
In1960 he married Miss Emile Schwandt,
who still survives him and by whom he
has had eleven children, eight of whom
are still living. In1862he came to Amer
lea and settled at St. Peter. He was a
jeweler by trade and in 1865 he removed
to Watertown, this state, engaging in
business there and remaining till 1879.
In that year he came to New Tim and
has resided here ever since, following at
all times his regular vocation. AS a
citizen and business man he was at all
times of an unassuming disposition and
quietly went about his own way, tending
strictly to his own affaias and gaining
the good will of all. He was very &C.
tive in lodge matters and was one of the
original charter members and organizers
of Lodge No. So, I. O. O. F., of this city

IT MAY STRIKE NEW ULM,
The Supreme Court Renders a Deci ision on
FAX Sales.

The supreme court of this state has
stuck long knife into practice, in con-
nection with tax sales, that has long pre-
vailed in the Western States, and has
enabled tax-cert.fcate spectators to OBJ
tain valuable property for a mere nomi-
nal sum. The case was one going to
that court from St. Paul, where the
amount paid by the purchaser at the tax
sale was less than the amount of taxes
assessed against the property and the ex-
penses due therein, because of the failure
of the owner of the premises to pay the
taxes in due time. The supreme court
holds that the officer making the sale had
no legal right to sell the property for
less amount than the taxes and the ex-
penses made necessary by the. sale, and
that certificates issued in pursuance of
such sale are absolutely void, and no
valid deed can be issued thereon.
The decision commends itself to the
ordinary judgment of men as fair and
just to the owners of such property, as
we'll as to the state, on whose behalf the
taxes are levied. The only object in
making the assessment is to impose on
the specific piece of property its share of
the public burden, and to realize speci-
tic sum therefrom for public purposes.'
To sell the property for less than the
amount of the taxes and the necessary
expenses is to defeat the object the state
or munici pality had in assessing such
taxes, that is, to realize proportion of
the funds necessary to defray public ex-
penses. It is a certain sum of money
that the state or municipality demands
of the property, because it is needed for
public purposes, and the sale is for the
sole purpose ofrealizing that There.
fore, the proceeds of the sale should
| equal the amour: of the taxes and the
expenses due to the delinquency, and that
is the theory upon which the court MAN.
talns that the sale should realize the full
amount of the taxes and the expenses of
making the sale. The decision, no
doubt, will cause many who have inves-
ted in such sales to look at that feature
of them, as affecting the titles they have
already acquired St. Paul Dispatch.

AMATEURS FIGHT FIRE.
They Exhausted Every Resource, but the
Flames We're Victorious-Mrs, fIOyds
Pretty Villa in Ashes.

Yesterday afternoon at 4:9O o'clock a
telephone message was received at the
Northside fire department announcing
a fire in the neighborhood of Sixteenth
avenue and Twentieth street. The de-
partment from the Northside promptly
started for the fire, but on reaching the
top of the hill at Rush avenue and Nine
teenth street readily saw ii was impos-
sible to reach the fire, as it was on Sew
enteenth avenue and Nineteenth street,
and the circuitous route from the main
thoroughfare was over steep hills and
across deep ravines.
A State Herald reporter went to the
fire and found the cottage of Phil Glenn
ents, colorad in full blaze. The fur
niture had been gotten out of this build
ing, and the many neighbors gathered
at the scene were busily engaged in taxi
ing the furniture from the adjoining res
idence, occupied and owned by Mrs. "A.
F. Floyd. The fire was such hot one
that the side of the latter building was
smoking as if the interior was ablaze.
Bucket after bucket of water was
thrown on this building and some OF the
more daring, among them Messrs. j. H.
McCary, Bankston, Jones and others
climbed upon the roof, and despite the
immense heat fought for half an hour or
more to save the residence, but finally
were forced back as the housetop
caught afiame directly under their feet,
and all their work counted for naught
and the pretty villa was soon a mass OF
flames.
The residence of Mrs. Floyd was val
ued at $3.50 and was insured for $5O0.
She also had $3.50 insurance on the fur-
niture. All of the latter was saved,
though badly damaged.
The house of Clements was valued at
$500 and insured for $500. All of his fur
niture was saved.
