past year we're larger in proportion BY
far than they have ever been. 1t was
finally decided by unanimous vote, to
authorize the directors to levy an as
sessment that would cover the defcien-
cy and have small amount in the
treasury. It was also decided to have
the annual meeting hereafter on the
last Saturday in October, instead Of
the last Saturday in November.
The election of directors followed
and resulted in the selection of Martin
Bredyold, VIM. Steele, A. D. Stewart,
T. l.. Gilbert, John Longbottom, Thos.
March and David Alexander, all being
old members except Mr.. Alexander,
who takes the place of T. D. Barber,
who declined to serve another term.
The directors held a meeting imme-
diatelv after the annual meeting
and selected Martin Bredvoid as pres
ident, Thos. March as vice-president,
and decided to reduce the Office Of
treasurer by merging the same into
that of the secretary, and electing A.
D. Stewart to fill both positions, he to
furnish bond for $1,000 for the faith
full performance of his duties. An as-
sessment of fifteen cents on the dollar
was authorized to make up the de-
ficiency mentioned in the secretary 8

stockholders will not be obliged to
pay interest on the same.

From the day that young man starts
out to seek his first position to the end of
his business life, his health has world to
do with his success. When a young man
applies to business man for position, his
personal appearance has deal to do with
the outcome. Personal appearance" does
not mean dress alone. It does not mean
exterior cleanliness alone. A young man
may be clean, so far as soap and water will
make him, but be disfgured by unsightly
pimples, eruptions and alterations on the
skin. These are due to impurities in the
blood. The blood becomes impure because
1t is improperly nourished. Instead of
receiving the life-giving elements of the
food, it receives the foul emanations of
indigestion, bilousness and costiveness.
The reason that DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery is the best remedy for
disorders of this description is that it goes
right to first causes. It gives man an
appetite like horse" It facilitates the
flow of digestive juices. It corrects all
disorders of the digestion, and makes the
assimilation of the life giving elements
of the food perfect. It invigorates the
liver. 1t purifies and enriches the blood.
It makes the muscles strong and active.
1t tones and steadies the nerves. It makes
body, alert of brain and clean and whole
some of skin. Medicine dealers sell it,
and have nothing "just as good"

was q. native of Switzerland, having
been born and reared on farm in the
little Alpine Republic, his ewes first
resting on the light of day in 1847.
In that country of scenic wonders and
peaceful, happy homes, Gottlieb re-
sided 26 years, availing himself of such
schools as the oldest Republic in the
world then afforded, and assisting his
parents on the farm. In 1873, when
the tide of emigration to America was
at it's zenith Gottlieb looked to the
west and came to the United States.
He at once came to Redwood county
and settled on his farm in New Avon,
where he has since resided. He has
been an active factor in the growth
and improvement of that township,
and has always been regarded as one
of its most upright and sturdy citizens.
1t was while he was residing at the
foot of the Alps that he met, courted

maiden, Rosina Hoffman, by name,

or of New Avon township, passed
away suddenly in his farm home,

stomach, saying that it was difficult for
him to eat. But on Monday evening
he joined the family at the supper
table and ate hearty supper. He
joked with his family, and said that he
never felt better in his life. Supper
ended, he passed into the parlor and
sat down in rocking chair. Five
minutes later his family heard groans
coming from the room, and rushed to
see what was the matter. Mr.. Hauptli
was gasping for breath, and five min
utes later the last spark of life had
gone out.
The funeral will be held from the
German church in New Avon, of which
Mr.. Hauptli has long been an active
member, at 2 o'clock tomorrow.

Thrilling Experience of a Sa- loon- Keeper With Two
 FOOtpads.
RELIEVED OF ALARGE SUM
Thinks He Could Identify the Mon in Case They Are
 Arrested.

C. J. Hourihan, who conducts a sa loon at 625 Fourth street. was held up by two masked men at the corner of Fourth and Grammar streets early Sunday morning and robbed of s220 and a gold watch and chain.
 Hourihan closed his saloon shortly after o'clock and was on his way home when he was stood up. Last night he visited police headquarters and gave a description of the robbers to Chief Lees.
 According to his story he was walk ing along Fourth street, and when near Brannan he was accosted by two men. one of whom thrust pistol in his face with the remark, Shell out, you - - -. or I'll blow your head off" Scarcely had he uttered the threat when the second robber proceeded to go through his pockets
 You're up against it." he remarked to the frightened saloon-keeper. Re sist and we will send you to the Morgue''
 While the robber with the pistol held Hourihan in submission, his com panion coolly searched his pockets, taking all the money he had
 After satisfying themselves that they had not overlooked anything of value. the men ordered Hourihan to skip" under penalty of being riddled with bullets.
 The aloon-keeper, realizing that he was in the hands of desperate men, at once left the scene, and did not stop to look back until he was several blocks away.
 Meeting a police officer he told him of his loss, and together they returned to the scene of the hold-up. A few feet away they found black silk handker- chief, which one of the robbers had used as a mask.
 Hourihan believes that the robbers on him and they determined to get it. A short time before he closed his sa- loon two men, supposed to be the rob- berS, entered his saloon and had sev- eral rounds of drinks. They remained for about thirty minutes. Hourihan is almost convinced that they are the men who held him up. He describes one of them as being about , feet 10 inches in height, medium build and having a stubby, sandy beard. He wore a gray suit of clothes and was about 8 years of age. His companion was rather short and weighed about 150 pounds He had a sandy mustache and wore a dark suit of clothes.
 Hourihan claims that after the men left the saloon they were joined by another man who he thinks acted as a lookout for his companions while they were holding him up. He describes the third man as being about 20 years of age, with smooth face and wearing a dark suit of clothes. He Is positive he can identify them in case they are ar rested

Moved the Depot.

There was great excitement at Ulen
last Saturday when the railway COM
pany undertook to- move the depot
south about 500 feet. The citizens OF
the town got together in a body with
ropes, ETC., and tried to hold the de-
pot while a man was sent to Moorhead
to get out an injunction against the
railroad company from moving it.
The railroad company only had a
crew Of six and an engine to move the
depot but with the help Of hydraulic
jacks they soon got the depot on the
rails and it was pulled to its new loca-
ton in q short time by the engine
much to the disgust Of the citizens.
The injunction arrived Sunday morn
ing but the fun was all over with by
