WOULD ORGANIZE new .ULN
Labor Societies Figure to Form
~ Unions Here.
Walking Delegate Sounds Senti.
ment o. Local Men.
Hope to Unionize the Town Before
Labor Convention.

In the way of preparing New .Ulm
for the big labor convention to be held
here next summer, an attempt is being
made to organize unions before the
deleg ates arrive. Recently walking
delegate or solicitor visited the city to
get the views of local men upon the
subject of organized labor and since
his departure quantity of union
literature has been sent in. >
The labor organizer who came to
New Ulm hailed from Louisville, KY,
and he conducted his Investigations
very quietly. He remained in the city
only day or so and confined his at
tentions to a limited number of people.
With these persons he discussed the
prospects for movement to unionize
the old town and explained to them
the necessary steps which must be
taken in order to secure recognition
from the national federation.
From remarks which he let drop and
from information which has been re-
ceived from outside sources it is evil
IDENTIFY the intention to form unions of
the mills and brewery workers, cigar
makers, printers, painters, carpenters,
stone masons and others. The principal
object, it is understood, is TO protect
the artisans of Mankato. In that city
everything is organized and the union
men are said to entertain fears that in
the event of a strike being declared
their employers could import non
union men from New Ulm and defeat
their demands. = - e.
Increased wages would not be de-
manded, in all probability, but still
wage scales would be established, and
the societies would doubtless ask a
voice in regulating the number of
helpers and apprentices. Shorterhours
might also be demanded this request
would not be likely to come for some
time. ,--s... p.
In some quarters the plans of the
labor men have been we'll received,
while in others they have been given
no encouragement whatever. It is
known that a strenuous effort will be
made to organize New Ulm, but the

Entertained Adiutant General.

Adjutant General E. D. Libbey OF
st. Paul, accompanied by Mrs. Libbey,
arrived in New Ulm Saturday noon
and were guests at the home of General
and Mrs. Joseph Bobleter. General
Libbey was married only recently and
this was the: first visit to New Ulm
since taking to himself a wife; Mrs.
Bobleter making it an occasion for en-
PERTAINING in honor of he and his bride.
To this end she invited the members
of General Bobleter's staff, Major L..
g. Vogel, Capt. Andrew ]. Eckstein
and Capt. Einar Hoidale, with their
ladies, to attend a 6 O'Clock dinner
and later in the evening the company

MAKES A MODEL GROCERY
Chas. FEEDERS New Establishment
Most Attractive.

Few cities can boast of neater or
more conveniently arranged grocery
store than Chas. Fiedler's new estab-
lishment at the corner of Broadway
and Second North street. It is model
OF it's kind. The interior is bright and
attractive and the proprietor has dis
tributed his wares about the store most
invitingly. =, $500. =. -
Large show windows upon both
fronts and side make it possible for
him to set off his stocks of fruit and
groceries and shelving along the north
wall provides him with ample storage
room for all the good things in the
eating line. His stock of crockery and
chinaware is exhibited upon shelves
on the opposite side of the room and
the canned goods and other articles
are placed with the best of taste and
in a manner which adds greatly to the
general effect.
One of the most conspicuous things
about the new building is the electri-
cal arrangement. Each square in the
steel ceiling is fitted with an incandes-
cent lamp and lights of the same kind
are placed at intervals along the
shelving. The idea is very ingenious
and when all the lamps are: lighted a
really brilliant effect is produced; it
being further enhanced by the reaec-
lions from the mirrors with which all
of the drawers beneath the shelving
are supplied.

PURSUED REBEL RAIDERS.
An Experience of the First Mime.
sofa Battery.
Punished Despoilers and Restored
Generals Wife.
Finished Task in Time to Partake
of Christmas Cheer.

In the forty years and more which
have elapsed since the armies of the
blue and gray faced each other on the
battlefelds of the south, thousands OF
anecdotes of the great strife have been
recounted but, in spite of this, new and
unpublished bits of history are CON
stantly recalled to the minds of the
veterans. Such a one: is related by
City Clerk Louis Schilling, a gunner
of the "Fighting' First Minnesota
Battery and man who participated
in all the engagements of his command
from its baptism at Shiloh to the
completion of Sherman's march to the
sea. 49,
Mr.. Schilling grew reminiscent re-
Gently and told of an experience which
illustrates the fearful ;hardships to
which the men of the north were sub
jected when they were quelling the war
of the rebellion. His story deals
with rigorous forced march in which
he took part, showing the obstacles
the union soldiers were forced to over
come and demonstrating the many
vicissitudes of fighting for the republic.
The incident occurred just prior to
the opening ofthe Vielssburg campaign.
With large be dy of troops General
Grant had marched to Huntsville,
Alabama, to invest the stronghold
from one side, while General Sherman
dropped down the river from Memphis
and assailed it from another. Grant
established field base at Huntsville
and there stored great quantity OF
provisions and munitions, leaving them
under the protection of a small guard
while he hurried on toward Vicksburg
with the main force.
To complicate the situation Mrs.
Grant had been visiting the union
commander and remained behind at
Huntsville. Judge, then, of the con-
sternation when a report was received
that rebel troops had descended upon
and captured the town, with all it's
stores and the generals wife. Grant

HELD BROS. BOOK STORE,

was unsuspicious Of the fact that so
large a force was in his rear but
Immediately issued orders for the
detachment of a column of two light
batteries and several regiments of
cavalry to give chase to the enemy,
intercept him and hold him in check
until the infantry could give battle. y
To this flying column the First
Minnesota was assigned and then
followed forced march of 260 miles
which taxed the men and their animals
totheutmost. Everything was sacrificed
for speed and the only stops made
were to water the tagging horses. No
fodder was carried and the rations
issued to the men consisted of pieces
of hardtack, which they munched
YEARLY as they chung to the bouncing
guns. re- Z
Once a change of direction was made
to intercept the retreating rebels and
when they were finally encountered, on
the third day, a sharp skirmish put
them to flight: Practically all of the
stores were recovered but the effects
upon the victorious force were dubious.
When orders to strike camp had been
received nearly every horse in the
battery had dropped to the ground
from utter exhaustion and the men
were no less fatigued.
Less than a week of rest restored
them to the best of condition, how
ever, and then the artillerymen set out
for Memphis. They reached that city
of the oath of December and pleasant
surprise awaited them, forthey received
pay for the first time in eight months
and spent Christmas in great con-
trast to their late hardships.

BANK IS BADLY lNVOL we'd
Affairs of Old Bank of St. James
Are Not Improving.
Claims Against Owner Are Held
Mostly by Farmers. #
Depositors Offering Certificates al
Half Their Value.

Contrary to our hopes and predic-
tons at the time when the Old Bank of
st. James began to show signs OF
weakening, that institution seems to be
in a decidedly bad way.
Each week shows the business in a
worse light and enough has been di-
vulged to warrant the prediction that
Mr.. Armstrong is completely ruined.
In the federal court session held st
Mankato, Wednesday, Mr.. Armstrong
was declared bankrupt and date will
be set for meeting of the creditors.
It is very certain that there will be a
lively scrap for the permanent receiv-
ership when the creditors meet. Attor-
ney Clark and Mr.. Lamm, of Manka-
to-, are in charge of the business for
the time being and are going over the
records to ascertain the condition of
the real estate owned by Mr. Arm
strong. The records show an extreme
ly tangled state of affairs though, so
far as we can learn, nothing which
lays Mr.. Armstrong liable to the
charge of Intentional fraud has been
found. 49,. ...:zz -
Persons having certificates of depo-
sit in the Old Bank are Offering them
quite generally at fifty per cent of
their face and finding no market for
them at that. ,-~-r ss-.re
An attempt will be made to show
cause why the Park hotel property,
now in the name of Mrs. Armstrong,
should be not included in Mr.. Arm
strong's assets. It is not at all certain,
however, that this can be done.
The claims held against Mr.. Arm
strong are by far the greater part held
by farmers around st. James. Those
business men who had money in the
bank had considerable amount de.
posted so that On all sides the failure
will be keenly felt by the patrons of
the bank.
The inquiry is by no means at an end
and we are inclined to believe that
when everything comes to the knowl-
edge of the public it will show the
failure to be nothing short of a dis
aster.-Madelia Times-Messenger. .

Said About Advertising.

Daily advertising is TO business
what daily bread is to mankind.
Advertising is an active advance
agent at the command of all who
seek success in business.
There is no deal but that has
something in stock which he can
make prominent in an advertise
ment. If it be not novel, it may be
made attractive by its reasonable
price.
Men do not catch fish by staying
at home and looking out upon the
water. Merchants who seek to
catch trade must get ont and hustle
for it, Advertising enables them to
enter all homes and have a fair
hearing wherever they go.
Continuous advertising creates
confidence. The prevailing opinion
is that one cannot be constantly be-
fore the public without being found
out and known for what he is. The
people believe in man whe can
stand trial by the public.

such is the daily grlnd OF the WO-
man of wealth who is giving her
life and her fortune to the good of

elan has ordered that she desist and
take long rest.
Born of a father who was the
most ruthless financial wrecker of
his time and raised in an atmos-
phere of riotous greed, this woman
has risen out Of her sordid environ
ment in a way that is almost a mir
aele. Not only has she turned
from the devious ways Of wealth,
but she has denied herself the joys
of domestic companionship and
motherhood for which heaven has
given every woman an intense long
ing. Among the hosts Of suffers
for her hand there must have been
some noble men, and il is scarcely
possible that her maiden heart has
not been moved % respond 10 some
affinity. But she has made self-de-
niaI her religion and charity her
creed.
How many lives she has brig hit
eneu and how many burdens she has
lifted only she and her beneficiaries
know, but much of her work has
been of public nature and the
whole DaoDIa have learned Ia love
her with love that is richer than
the admiration of genius or the adj
uIation of wealth or yet the applause
of fame.
And her life teaches us that there
is a reserve of virtue in human kind
that nothing can destroy. We need
not despair Of the race, however

such beauty Of character springs
