The trial OF Tanke and Amelia Tan

The trial Of Tanke and Amelia Tanke
has been an expensive one to those par
ties surely, for two mortgages have re-
Gently been given on the third interest
of Mrs. Tanke in the Lafayette farm.
One of these is $1,000 and one for $500,
and both run to the New Ulm State
Bank. Mrs. Tanke's interest in the pre-
misses will likely be wiped out before the
litigation ends.-St. Peter Herald

and the Indian. 1t has also been decided
to build log cabin on 1st North street
between Minnesota and Broadway which
is to be headquarters for all old settlers.
This place will be made comfortable with
chairs and other seats and register will
be provided in which it is, expected all
who come will place their names. -
So far the celebration has met with the
heartiest support. The patronage of the
minstrel show gave it good financial
start but to insure an amount sufficient
to defray all expenses paper will be
circulated asking subscriptions. This
paper will no doubt be generously signed.
The. council will be asked to give as
much to this as it did to the firemen, and
to furthur assist 5000 souvenir buttons
have been ordered which will be on sale
at 10 cents piece. This number should
be sold out in ten days after they are
put on the market.
For the souvenir badges an effective
design, consisting of ribbon with a
medal attached, has been selected The
medal will be emblamatic of the massa-
ere, having on its face an Indian head
and with reproduction of the New Ulm
Indian monument on the reverse side. It
will also bear the 1ncriptiou, "Fortieth
Anniversary Indian Massacre Celebration.
1S62-1902. New Ulm, Minn., August
23rd." Some 500 of these will be ordered.
Twelve Thousand souvenir mailing
cards will be put on sale at 25 cents per
half dozen. There ave to be six differ
.ent styles, including view Of the village
in 1862 from an old print, one or more
scenes of the battle, likeness of Chief
Little Crow, the Indian monument, Fort
Ridgely and a partial view of New Ulm
as it's today. The cards will inquest
tionabiy be in great demand, providing
as they do novel and inexpensive meth
cd Of communicating to absent friends
the fact that New Ulm will entertain.
The. buttons are to be IL inches in di-
ameter and on them will be the repre-
sensations of an Indian watching, with
rife il hand for an opportunity to shoot.
The drawing is from the artistic brush Of
Anton Gag and like all other work done,
in which the Indian figures, it is true to
life and an excellent souvenir.
It is the desire Of the committee that
from now until the date of the Celebra-
ton as much publicity as possible be
given. It the people Of the city become
thoroughly in earnest and talk it to their
friends New Ulm cannot fail to have an
immense crowd here On those days.

REMOVE MUCH DIRT
nUcH THE SPENT IN FRUITLESs SEARCH
FOR WELLNER'S REVOLVER. :.
MRS. gANKE SHOWS WHERE TO DIG,
TONS OF EARTH REMOVED BUT NO RE.
yOLyER HAS BEEN DISCOVERED.

| The defense inthe prosecution of the
Fankes has given up search for the reyol-
yer, having failed to locate it in the
place where Mrs. Tanke was so certain
she hid. it. The whole story seems to be
but scheme to gain time and while the
attorneys for Mrs. Tanke may put some
lcredence in the tale the attorneys on the
other side do not credit the story at all.
There is no reason to doubt but that
the gun found in the river IS the gun
/ from which the shots were fired that
killed Wellner and the theory still stands
that he was shot late in the afternoon
while he and his wife were unloading
hay, in the barn and that the deed was
the result of a conspiracy in which the
two were equal partners.
The law governing cases in which two
parties are implicated where one was not
a principal but shared in the benefits,
innocent of the purpose to commit mur.
der, would permit Tanke to get off with
a sentence of not more than one year I'M
prisonment or 5000 fine providing it
could be proven that Mrs. Tanke did the
shooting while he was absent from the
farm and without his knowledge or con-
sent. ~.
1t is very evident that this is the theory
upon which the defense is working in
the hope that a new trial will result in
setting aside the testimony of the state
and conviction Of Mrs. Tanke will carry
with tia sentence for. life instead of the
death sentence.
Mrs. Tanke has told so many false
hoods under oath that her sworn state
ment that she killed her husband in the
hours between ten and eleven O'Clock is
not believed, and her confession does
not prove anything more than. that. she.
did the killing. Attorney Davis does
not belive that any new evidence can
effect the casein the least and he is sat-
isfed that the verdict of theajury will
stand. -~~.ssa"s'S
In digging over the barn yard Attorney
Ecksteln was made the subject consider
able good natured joking. Attorney
Stone remarked that the, soil in that spot
was good enough to produce anything
even to revolvers. The state good
humoredly remarked that it was the
hardest evidence the defense had tried to
dig up. .t,< =.

Sunday Mr.. Klossner, who is admin.
istrator of the Wellner estate and guardi-
an for the children, went out to the farm
and found three men digging there. Mr.
Kiossner argued, with the men, saying
that there was NO use tearing up the barn
yard as the; were doing and that he
wanted the work stopped. Mr.. Tanke,
the father, said he thought it was all
foclishness to dig and the men agreed to
abandon the work. Monday morning,
however two men were there bright and
early industr,ously plowing and scrap
ing. Sheriff Mcmillan was telephoned
and left St. Peter in a buggy driving
directly to the farm. The defense is
putting up pretty strong bluff, to what
purpose will probably come out in the
near future. .z~.s...z .s.5,g ,gz.sz.~

The Many Uses of the Banana.

Immense fortunes have been made
out of the banana business. Revenues
do not accrue alone from the sale OF
the fruit, for the leaves are used for
packing; the juice, being strong in
tanning, makes an indelible ink and
shoe backing; the wax found on
underside Of the leaves is a valuable
article of commerce manila hemp is
made from the stems, and ofthis hemp
are made mats, plated work and lace
handkerchiefs of the finest texture
moreover, the banana is ground into
banana -four.
The fruit to be sold for dessert is
ripened by the dry warmth Of faring
gas jets in the strong places in which
it is kept, and care has to be taken to
prevent softening or overripening.
The island of Jamaica yields great
crops of this useful and mOney-making
fruit.

Shortest Sermon on Record.

Twice requested one Sunday morn
ing recently to make his sermon short
on account of the hot weather, Rev.
Henry Gillingham, pastor Of the Meth
odist church at Atlantic, Mich, preach
ed the shortest sermon on record. He
took the following text
Text, Luke, 1924: "And he cried
and said: Father Abraham, have
mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that
he may dip the tip Of his fingers In
water and cool my tongue, for | am
tormented in this fame"
Then he said "Three persons
Abraham, Dives, Lazarus. 1t was
hot where Dives was. He did not
like it. He wanted to get out. So do
we. Let us pray"
That was the whole sermon. 1t
made hit.

Good Roads

An exchange gives the following
valuable points on good roads. Good
roads have a money value to the
farmers as well as political and
social value.
The difference between good and
bad roads is often equivalent to the
difference between profit and loss.
Charles Sumner once said "the road
and achoolmasters are the two most
important agents in advancing civ
ilization."
Good roads raise tbs value Of farm
land and farm products, and tend to
beautiful the country through which
they pass.
Bad roads constitute the greatest
drawback to rural life and for the lack
Of roads the farmers suffer more than
any other class.
Good roads, like good streets, make
habitation along them most desirable !;
they economiz time and fare in trans
portatlon Of products, reduce wear and
tear on horses, harness and vehicles
and enhance the market value Of real
estate.
Life on farm often becomes. lso-
lated and barren of social enjoyments
and pleasures, and country people IN
some communities suffer such great
disadvantage that ambition is checked,
energy weakened and industry par
alyzed.

A Happy Sequel.

A few years ago one of most popular
novelists was busily engaged in writ
ing a serial novel for London jour
nal when certain nobleman called on
her in state of intense excitement.
"Do tell me" said he, "have you
finished the story now appearing in
-"
"Why, Of course; some time ago,
was the reply.
docs the heroine die at the end ?"
ooh, certainly. After such con-
sumptive symptoms as I have described
how could she possibly live?"
"But you must make her live. You
must change the catastrophe, for on
your heroine's life depends my daugh-
ter's."
Your daughter's2" exclaimed the
novelist in surprise.
Eyes" was the startling reioinder.
"She has all the various symptoms of
consumption which you have described
and watches mourufully for every
number of your novel, reading her
own fate in that Of your heroine.
Now, if you make your heroine live,
I feel persuaded that my daughter,
whose imagination has been very deep
ly impressed, will live, too. Come /!
A life to be saved is temptation
mot to be resisted, " added the
novelist.
Consequently the last chapter was
changed. The heroine recovered and
was duly made happy. About five
years after the novelist met the no.
bleman at party.
"Ah |" he exclaimed, "let me intro
duce you to my daughter. l think
she owes her life to you. There she
is"
"Whatl That handsome woman
who looks the very picture of health"
Eyes; she is married and has had
three children"
"And my novel has had three edi-
tons" said the novelist with laugh;
$50 we are quits.

MARKED FOR ASSAULT,
Alleged Threats by Maryland Resi-
dents Against Law and Order League,

Information has been received by men,
bers of the Law and Order League of Prince
Georges county. Md. that some of their
number have been selected to be foully
dealt with by some of the rough element
who spend their time about Chesapeake
junction. Several weeks ago 1t was re-
ported that five of the members of the
league had been marked" and subse-
quently assaults were committed on two of
them. One night last week Charles A.
Wegner, the prosecuting witness in some
Of the so-called junction cases. was beaten
by three men. He was followed by his as
sailants across the line into the District, he
alleged, and warrants were issued for
James Godfrey, Patrick Hill and James
Tate. The men left $40 each for their ap-
pearance. and were permitted to forfeit
this small sum when the cases were called
in the Police Court.
Testimony is being collected by the league
to be presented to the grand jury next
month when the October session Of the
court convenes at Marlboro. Some diff
Guilty may be experienced in securing the
attendance Of witnesses from this city, but
the league hopes to be able to make a good
showing with witnesses who are residents
OF the county.
