HARD COAL TOOK A DROP
Wagon Load Of Anthracite Pulls Team
Over Embankment.

Hard coal took a drop ia New Ulm
Saturday afternoon. Two tons OF 1t
went over the embankment opposite.
the Milford and Cottonwood creamery
and in its descent pulled a heavy team
of horses to the foot of the declevity,
fully thirty feet below the roadway.
The team was owned by Joseph Filzen
and the accident was a NEST peculiar
one.
Saturday afternoon Mr.. Filzen con-.
tracted to deliver wagon load of
coal to Prof. J. Schaller's residence
on College hill and about 3 O'Clock
started to ascend the grade. At the
steepest point, where the road leads
off to the left to DIR. Martin Luther
college, one of the horses slipped on
some ice and the wagon with its heavy
load started backward down the hill.
The team was unable to hold it and in
a twinkling it slowed to the left and
the wagon and horses pitched over the
thirty-foot drop on the south side of
the road.
When Mr.. Filzen saw that it would
be impossible to regain control of the
wagon he jumped but the animals went
to the bottom with it. One was cut
quite badly but it is a miracle that
both were not killed. In the crash the
wagon was demolished.

Sunday.


An exciting bowling match was
pulled off in Thos. B. Bricks alleys
in this city Sunday afternoon between
seams from ST.. James and New Ulm.
The local men were vanqnished but
there was no stigma attached to their
defeat, for they played hard from
start to finish and at theend were only
Sc pins behind their opponents.
n. Rudd headed the five st. James
players and he won the match for his
team, rolling in splendid form. In the
first game the New Ulm crowd was
easy for the visitors but the second
round found them but six pins in the
rear and in the final game-they bested
the young men from Jimtown. The

SUDDEN DEATH OF CHILD
Young Son Of c. H. Dirks Passed
Away Monday.

Elder, the eight-year old son of Con-
rad 81. Dirks, died very suddenly or.
Monday, after brief illness. His de
mise was due to diabetes, a disease
that attacks children only in rare in
stances, and almost before his parents
realized that he was i'll he had passed
away.
The boy compla aimed of not feeling
we'll last week but it was thought to
be nothing more serious than slight
indisposition. On Saturday, however,
his symptoms became alarming and
that day physician was called in.
He found that the little patient was
beyond human aid and in less than
forty eight hours the end came.
Elder Dirks was born in New Ulm
and at the time of his death was in
the third grade of the public schools.
He was bright and gentlemanly lit
tie fellow and his cheerful, obliging
ways and disposition made him a
favorite with his elders as we'll as
with his school mates. To the latter
his sad death will come as severe
shock and Mr.. and Mrs. Dirks will
have the heartfelt sympathy of all in
their great affection.
Funeral services will be held from
the Methodist church this afternoon.
After suffering a stroke of paralysis
Fritz Werner died Saturday at his
home at the corner of Payne and
Third North streets. He was native
Of Mecklenburg, Germany, and was
63 years of age. Deceased had lived
in New Ulm about twenty years. He
is survived by a widow and two
daughters, Mrs. Otto Radtke of Mil
ford, and Miss Anna Werner of St.
Paul, both of whom were at home
when the end came. The funeral was
held from the Lutheran church at
o'clock yesterday afternoon. Services
were conducted by Rev. G. j. Albrecht

Mother Shipton's Prophecy.

By request we give below the proph-
ecy of Mother Shipton, which was first
published in England in 1915. It was
as follows:
Carriages without horses shall go,
And accidents fill the world with woe
Around the world thoughts shall fly
In the tWinkling of an eye.
Waters shall yet more wonders do.
NOW strange, yet shall be true.
The world upside down shall be,
And gold be found at root of tree
Through hills man shall ride
And no horse or ass be at his side
Under water man shall walk,
Shall ride, shall sleep, shall talk.
In the air mon shall be seen
In white, in black, in green.
Iron in water shall float
AS easy as a wooden boat.
GOLD shall be found mid stOne
II land that's now unknown.
Fire and water shall wonders do
England sha vi at last admit a Jew
AND this world to an end shall come
In eighteen hundred and eighty -one.''
Mother Shipton was a true prophet
in regard to railroads, iron ships, bal
looms, diving bells and submarine
boats, the discovery of strange coun-
tries and, in fact, in all of her prophe-
cies but the last. AS to the last the
date seems to have got mixed.

The dean paused. He was thinking
secondly Of unmarried women. Why
he did not say unmarried women he
cannot understand. He thinks he may
have been nervous about using the old
fashioned word spinster, SO he said:
Next we think of those women
whose prospects of marriage are slowly
fading"
There was an instant roar OF laugh

of the married lay women joined The
discounted dean deprecated the I'M
seemly merriment as best he could.
But he did not mend matters greatly,

Connecticut Valley Tobacco Market.

The news from all parts of the country
is to the effect that the dry weather con-
tinues to hold the hanging tobacco dry,
so that it cannot be shown, and as con-
sequence no buying is being done in the
1904 crop. Few sales of the old crop are
reported among the farmers, and the cry
is heard, Where shall we secure our
binder stock?" and we'll they may won
der; for with only 1900 cases of Pennsyl-
vania in sight of the 1901 and 1903 crops,
bad crop of 1903 Wisconsin and very
few of the older goods left, the outlook
for poor binders is indeed small, and
smaller still for good stock. The same
of slow market in the great centers is
still the talk. The trade papers report
quite fair sale of old goods, but of a
poor character. The stock is growing
smaller and poorer every day, so that
the manufacturer needs to turn his at
tention toward the high priced Havana
and Sumatra stock, of which there seems
to be an abundance for those who make
up their minds to use such goods. TAX
ing the whole situation with the manu-
facturers still enlarging their output,
the small stock of material in sight,
prices raising and the stock growing
poorer-they may have to look twice to
see their guiding star, especially on a
cloudy morning. Ii the price of cigars
could only be raised in proportion as the
stock raises in price, there might be
more sunny days and starlit nights for
the manufacturers.

AS far as domestic leaf is concerned,
big quantities of various kinds have
changed hands, according to all reports.
A particular boom has been experienced
in 1902 and 1908 Gebhart, and manu-
facturers are now apparently at the
point where they are ready to examine
the offerings of 1903 Wisconsin Seed.
Transactions in 1908 Pennsylvania Broad

Pennsylvania is firmly holding it's
proud position as the largest cigar pro-
ducing State in the country, with New
York crawling up second. The output
of Pennsylvania cigar industry during
the last fiscal year amounted to 1926
195,O88 against New Yorks of l ,564 ,352,-
929, the difference being over 26O mil
lions in favor of the former. But the
showing is still worse for New York in
regard to the output of full-fledged ci-
gars alone. In the output of this grade
of cigars, Pennsylvania beats New York
by over 400 millions. New York's loss of
it's ranking as the first cigar producing
State of the country is due to the labor
unions which on account of their arbi-
trary interference compelled our largest
manufacturers to transfer the bulk OF
their manufacturing plants into the nom
union districts OF Pennsylvania. New
YorK's loss was Pennsylvania's gain.
