UP IN VERMONT.
what ndueed an Old Man to Shave
so Often.

Apropos of the recent adoption IN
Vermont of the high license law, Rep
resentative Foster, CT that state, tells
an ~anecdote. about an old farmer
who never had an ache or a pain, but
who, nevertheless, thought he ought
20 have a doctor, because he had
never had one.
The interview was to the point, the
farmer asserting that he could eat as
far as he could see on both sides Of
the table, and that he slept so we'll he
didn't get up till it was time to do
the milking.
You are in perfect health said
the doctor to the farmer, after max
ing a physical examination, but you
are in the decline of health and per-
haps o ought to take a tonic, some
thing like a little rye whiskey."

doctor.

WELL" rejoined the doctor.
couldn't you have a bottle in your
room and take the tonic whenever

This was agreed to, and it was some
time before the doctor one day met
the farmers son n inquired about
the patient.

A scene of great disorder followed
this statement, the members of the left
demanding the removal of NJ. Binder.
Premier COmbe sought to gain recog-
milton, but as NJ. Binder continued to
shuot at the top Of his voice. Combes
and Vale and the other ministers re-
tired from the house. The president,
NJ. Bourgeois, then consulted with the
chamber which censured NJ. Binder.
When he attempted to resume his
speech, the president suspended the
sitting. NJ. Vale made a brief re-
joinder to the effect that his

weight did not cause any perceptible
oscillation.
The new ladder extends to height
Of 60 feet from the ground and it may
be raised to it's full height in a quar-
ter of a minute. At Columbus, while
the machine was in the course of con-
struction, men in the employ of the
Seagrave Company frequently extend
ed the ladder to it's full length and
raised it to perpendicular in less
than twelve seconds. Its record is
nine seconds but the average time is
fifteen seconds.
PATENT HOSTING DEVICE.
The raising device consists of SER
les OF coil springs encased in steel
cylinders and a small screw which is
operated by two winch handles through
bevel gear. When the ladder is low
cred the springs are condensed by the
weight of the ladder, and when it is
again desired to raise the ladder the
CONSEQUENT expansion of the springs
provides the greater part of the force
necessary to raise it.

Although the wagon weighs about
5000 pounds, it is fitted with Grant
roller bearings, which are among the
best of the kind for reducing friction,
and one man can easily move the ma
chine along the floor of the engine
house. Another feature of the truck
is that the drivers seat does not have
to be moved while the ladder is being
raised. In fact, the ladder can be
raised while the truck is still in mo-
ton. The tillerman's seat is furnished
with spring, which swings it to one
side and locks it in place when it is
desired to raise the ladder. The mere
pulling of a spring does the work.
Besides the aerial ladder there are
seven service ladders on the truck and
it's equipment of tools is very com
plete. Friday the members of the fire

AERIAL TRUCK IS TESTED
Hook and Ladder Wagon Manufactured BY Seagrave Com

PROGRESS OF THE DEPARTMENT
From Humble Beginning 1t Has Advanced Steadily and
Now Possesses Modern Equipment. -First Appar
atus Was Invented by the Early Pioneers.

In the presence of Chief Henry
Engel, the members of the purchasing
committee of the city council and a
crowd of spectators, the new aerial
hook and ladder truck manufactured
by The Seagrave Company of Column
bus, Ohio, was given preliminary
test Friday morning in front of the
engine house on Broadway. It did
everything that was expected and Chief
Engel expressed the greatest satisfac-
ton with New Ulm's latest acquisition
in the line of fire fighting apparatus.
In making the experimental test, the
truck was taken out into the center of
the street, where two men hoisted the
ponder ous-looking ladder into a posi-
ton nearly perpendicular with ridicu-
lous ease. Two others mounted the
rungs to the the top but their combined

by Messrs. Peter. Scherer and Richard
Fischer and, by a strange coincidence,
was the place from which allfre alarms
we're sounded.
Another bad fire occurred on Feb.
rs, 1874, when the New Ulm Planning
mill, owned by a local syndicate con-
sisting of Col. Vim. Pfaender, Charles
Wagner and Conrad ze1ler, was wiped
out, but there was no other until the
destruction of the Union house. This
took place on July S, 1876, and the
landlord, Philip Gross, replaced the
building with the present Grand Hotel.
March 20, 1885, Landlord Chas.
Brust of the Merchants Hotel, suffered
a total loss of his property and in the
sameconflagration the saloon of Henry
Bergman and the carpenter shop of
Albert Held went up in smoke. On
Sept. 10, 1888, large dwelling house
owned by M. Mullen, and which was
being erected at the time, caught fire
and was burned and in 1896 the de-
struction of the Commercial House
took place. Spontaneous combustion
caused the Van Deusen elevator to
ignite on July 7, 1897, and it was inn
possible to save the structure.

The New Ulm Fire Department is

A WISE REQUEST.

A sensible young lady of Rush
Springs, says an exchange, made
the following request Of her friend;
"Do not lay me down by the rip
ling brookside, lest the babbling
lovers wake me from my dreams,
nor in the beautiful cemeteries in
the valleys lest the sight-seers COO
ing over epitaphs distract me; but
let me sleep under the counter of
the merchant and business man
who never advertises. There is
the peace that passeth all under
standing, and deep is the sleep in
which neither the buoyant football
Of youth nor the weary shuttle OF
old age will ever intrude."
