Ft. Ridgely Park.

Commenting on an article which ap-
peared in the Review sometime ago, Sec.
Hopkins of the Ft. Ridgely National
Park Association has addressed long
letter in answer. The letter is too long
too publish, not because the cause is not
meritorlous but other matters just as
important demand notice. He opposes
the project to establish a reserve IN the
northern part of the state, contending
that small parks SO situated that they
can be available to more people than
can afford to travel long distances to the
remote national parks, is of more value
than the larger ones. There is no rea-
son why the government should not set
aside the tract Of land desired at Fl.
Rldgely for national GENE terry, even if
1t has no precedent for making it ma
tlonal park; and in this the Association
has the support of everyone who knows
of the history of those times when Fl.
Ridgely was, the refuge for the terror
stricken of almost the entire state. We
hope to see the Association win out in
this scheme.

A BUSINESS MEETING.
Commercial Union Elect officers and
Transact other Business.

Friday night the New Ulm CONNER
cial Union held its regular meeting and
elected officers for the ensuing year and
the choice of president felr to Jacob
Klossner, jr. who was reelected, A. J.
Eckstein was reelected, vice president.
When it came to secretary G. A. Otto
meyer W as nominated by Ferdinand
Crone and the nomination was immedl-
ately seconded by Frank Behnke. Mr..
Ottomeyer protested as vociferously as
it was in his power to do, but was elect
ed over his protest. Frank Behnke was
reelected treasurer and the three trus-
tees are Messrs. Hoidale, Crone and DR..
Strickler. In the absence of President
Klossner DIR. Strickler presided over the
meeting.
After the business of election was
concluded Mr. Ottomeyer brought up
the subject of the preservation of the
parks and the necessity of having per-
manept park commission instead of the
present system of an apposutive COM
mittee that is changed almost yearly. 1t
developed that to secure such commits
sion 1t would be necessary to have an
act of the Legislature changing the char
ter, so that until there is opportunity to
secure such legislation the matter will
be dropped. 1t was apparent, however
that the sentiment Of the meeting was
unanimous for such commission.
During the dicussion of this matter
the attention of the meeting was drawn
to the fact that the trees on both sides
of the river where it skirts the city are
being rapidly cut down and the banks
will shortly be stripped of their beauty.
The past summer especially, now that
fuel is SO expensive las been the hardest
on the trees ana most of those that are
of any size are now being sold il cord
wosd. On motion made by Mr.. Hoi
dale committee consisting of F. C.one,
E Hoidale and G. A. Ottomeyer was
appointed, with instructions to devise
ways and means by which the matter
may be brought to the attention of the
public for correction.
Another matter relating to the uni
formity Of sidewalks and cheaper
method of obtaining tn same was
brought up and Mr.. Ottomeyer stated
that the sidewalk system in St. Cloud
like the street system was under the di-
rection of the city council and conse-
quently there was little trouble about
the walks or their repairs. The claim
was made that the walks were in more
general use than the streets and should
be more generally paid for by the pub
lie. DIR. S.rickler stated that in case
the cement walks prove successful there
would be uniformity in the walks as
then the council would undoubtedl
give premium on that class of walks.
The meeting was enthusiastic and
showed that the business men are anx-
lods for the bettelment of the city in
broader sense than where it directly ef-
fected their own welfare.
In connection with the improvement
of the parks DR.. Strickler stated that
Mr.. Schell had frequently spoken to him
about establishing deer park for which
Mr.. Schell was willing to contribute
several animals and he suggested that Il
proper steps were taken the place might
be made to be something in which the
city could take pride.

RESULT OF ADVERTISING.
The Experiment of an American Gem
tIeman I'm the French
Capital.

"Wanted-A young French woman to
give lessons to an American gentleman.
Apply Hotel -, ten o'clock Friday"
The foregoing advertisement, print
ed in a Paris paper, almost caused a
riot at the hotel at the hour named,
says the Paris Messenger. The Amer
lean gentleman was Webster Jones,
of San Francisco. Mr.. Jones left or
ders that he would receive applicants
in a room at the hotel, and they
might be admitted to the corridor
pending his arrival. When he got
there he found line that reached out
into the street and extended all the
way to the Place Vendome. Five hun
dred dashing Partisan ladies were
clamoring for a sight of the "Ameri-
can gentleman" They were unani-
mously resolved to give him lessons.
Jones was paralyzed at the sight
and fed, leaving the hotel people 10
get out of the scrape the best they
might. The managers and clerks ar
gued in vain. The ladies would not
be pacified.< They clamored for a
sight of the evasive American. The
police were called. The women were
put out, but more women kept com
ing all day. The hotel was under
police protection for "a hours. Jones
fed to another hotel, a wiser, and,
perhaps a better man. He is now
convinced that people read advertise
ments, but he has retired from the
business.

MASKS AS CHICKEN SALAD.
One of the Mysterious Uses to Which
the Forbidden Bob Veal
Is Put.

Many persons who read from time
to time of attempts such as are now
being made by the state department
Of agriculture and the local health
board to suppress the bob veal traffic
wonder where all the bob veal goes
to that is said to reach the New York
markets, as they never see any of it.
One of the most common of the uses
to which it is put escapes the atten-
ton of the undiscriminating utterly.
That is its use as a substitute for
chicken in chicken salad, says the
Sun.
tn the highest class of restaurants
in which the chicken in salad is cut
into reasonably large pieces, there is,
of course, nothing Of this sort done.
But where the supposed chicken is
almost minced, as it too often is even
in good restaurants, there is gen.
orally room for a suspicion of the
substitution of bob veal for chicken.
Several men were almost more panied
than Disguised not long ago to find
themselves served with a salad of bob
veal. with a scattering of bits of
chicken in it in a Broadway restau-
rant. The proprietor of the restau-
rant has several places of refresh
ment in town and his name has been
held to be a guarantee of the quality
both of the edibles and the drinkables
served in his eating places.

MACHINE-MADE STATUES.
A Process That Now Renders the
Services or Higb-Priccd
Sculptor Unnecessary.

If you want bust or statue of your
self you need no longer feel obliged
to go to a high-priced sculptor and
contract for it regardless of expense
You can have the thing done by me-
ehanical process, says the Saturday
Evening Post.
The machine-sculptor will place you
on a pedestal which revolves, and VIII
turn you slowly around while he takes
q series of photographs of you with
a fixed camera. As a result he will
have views of yourself from every
standpoint, and then it only remains
to convert these pictures into the por'
trait in marble that Is desired.
There is no preliminary model in
clay. A piece of marble of the neces'
sary size is provided, and the outlines
of the first photograph, with suitable
enlargement, are traced upon the
stone, process being used that makes
accuracy certain. Then the stone is
revolved a certain distance, so as to
correspond mathematically with the
view taken in the second photograph,
and the operation is repeated. This is
done with all the photographs sue
cessively, the chisel doing its work
meanwhile. until a replica of yourself
is produced in the marble.
Though the process is in the main
mechanical, some artistic skill is re-
duced in the manner described, but
such details as the ears and the hair
must have treatment with the chisel.
