Mr.. Brooks at once ran for aid
and'seeingWilliam Cavanaugh across
the street, hailed him, and together
they climbed the stairs and looked
over the transom. The body OF the
murdered dentist lay in the middle
of the large rug in the center Of tt 9
room in a pool Of blood and sulking
in the shadow of desk could be
family discerned the criminal. His
face was drawn and terrible and his
hands were red to the wrists with
blood.
The two men rushed back down
stairs and gave general alarm and
T. FL. Behnke and Policeman Joseph
Weissenborn, followed by large
crowd, hurried to the scene. Mr.
Behnke put his shoulder to the door
and broke the lock and the two en-
tered. There lay the doctor, but
the other man was gone.
A safe is in the Office. This was
found open but curiously enough
nothing appeared to have been abb
stracted from it. The robber, il
robber it was, seems to have been
frightened from his object by APP
preaching footsteps.
Robbery, however, does not look
like sound hypothesis. A burglar
would have damaged the safe. But
the doctor himself had evidently
opened it.
The mystery surrounding the af-
fair is further increased by the high
standing, popularity and success of
the murdered man. He is not known
to have had an enemy in the world.
He bore high reputation in the
community.

MURDER I'm NEW ULM.
DR.. Gerhard, a Popular Young Dentist of
New Ulm, Brutality Murdered.

A New Ulm special of last Tues
day evening says that DR.. T.. A.
Gerhard, a young dentist, was bru-
tally murdered tonight at about 10
O'Clock. The deed was committed
by an unknown assailant. A blood
stained knife and hammer were
found in the room near the body of
the victim. Circumstances of mys-
terry and horror surround the crime,
which reproduces in real life the
Sherlock Holmes 6ctions.
When the body was discovered,
the Office in which it lay presented
a scene of indescri5able horror and
confusion. A fierce life and death
struggle had evidently taken place
between the dead man and his as
sailant. The furniture of the room
was partly smashed and in great
disorder. Blood was spattered over
the wall and befouled the furniture.
Pools of warm blood yetcovered the
floor and blood was yet oozing from
the many gashes on the face and
body of the corpse.
The tragedy seems to have oc-
Cured almost at 10 o'clock. The
office OF the New Ulm Review is di-
rectly below the one which was oc-
cupied by DR.. Gerhard. At 10
o clock Asa Brooks. editor Of The
Review, heard a scuff1ing upstairs
and thought that DR.. Gerhard and
one of the boys upstairs were wrestl-
ing, as they often do, so did not paw
a great deal of attention to it. The
noise continued, however, and cries,
inarticulate, as though coming from
man being choked, we're heard.
He rushed upstairs and tried both
doors, but they were locked, and he
climbed upon the railing and looked
over the transom. There in the big
room near the operating chair lying
on his back, with the blood flowing
from his wounds, lay DR.. Gerhard,
and on his knees beside him was the
murderer, bending over his victim
and drawing the streaming knife
from a stab in the neck. He gave it
a vicious twist as he drew it out.
and then looking up saw the eyes
witnessing his awful deed.

CHRISTMAS RECORD OF CRIMES.

CHRISTMAS RECORD OF CRIMES.
The record Of crimes during the glad

that in the United States there we're

over one hundred badly injured land
this at a period when the peace On

triumphantly. Ills a sad record which
the Christmas Of 1904 win leave; it is
probable that the record IS not yet com
pleted. There were undoubtedly homi-
cides and attempts aG homicides not
uncovered, which viii come out later to
swell the gruesome list Of the crimes
committed under our civilization And
all these, bear in mind were only the
greater offences, the heavy timber, as it
were, Of the structure Of crime. OF the
lesser and almost innumerable cases there
is no record, and we are thus spared the
ignominy OF facing our misdoings in
their completeness. But the homicide
record Is sufficient to prove beyond
question that our boosted national prog
ress is not without ita set backs, its
eddyings Of moral stognation. How else
can one explain the remarkable record d
murders that comes up to US from the
state Of louisiana Seven murders cons
mitted in Louisiana alone during the
brief interval which includes the Christ
mas season. It is evident that some
thing is wrong with our sister state II

Anecdotes Which illustrate His Interest
in School Reform.


Kaiser Wilhelm H. still continues his
efforts for tie reform Of the German
schools says the Berlin correspondent
Of the New York Times. 1t will be
remembered that Il was due to his In
ltiative that the so called real gym
nasiums, where no Greek, but natural
sciences are taught, were first intro
duced. Lately the kaiser in two in
stances has given another proof Of his
interest in school reform.
While recently on his estate in Cadl-
men he visited the public school of the
district, which is attended by fifty
eight pupils. After having listened to
the recitation he declared in strong Ian
guage that such oyercrowding Of a
schoolroom is inhumane cruelty.
The other story told is even more In
teresting. The instruction in a gymna-
SUM In the west of Berlin is in the
hands Of principal who loves to give
his pupils subjects to write on of a
somewhat humorous nature. Recently
Bis scholars had to write on the sub
ject I'm how far, from the position Of
the legs Of the Hohenzollern statues in
the Avenue Victory, can one draw con
cluslons as to the character Of the rep

! The much perturbed pupils spent
mary long hours to answer this mo
mentous inquiry. BY an unforeseen
coincidence the matter came 70 tbs
ears Of the kaiser. He at once tele
graphed to DR.. Studt, Prusslan min
| lister Of education, and asked him {
send some Of these compositions.
| After strenuous efforts by the direct
or Of the school three composition
books We're obtained These by spe
ciaI messenger were at once taken t
the kaiser. When the kaiser began t
read the compositions his features be
came d little more amiable. They final
" bore satisfied expression when a

read, After al, one would suppos
that the character Of the HohenzoIlen
