in Scandinavia. 1t was then that
the countries received the strongest
shaking they have experienced since
scientific records have been preserved.
Most Of the people were at church
when the shock came, and in every
less serious nature.
The earthquake district included all
of Denmark and the lower parts of
Norway and Sweden as far north as
Namsos and Sundsvall. The heaviest
disturbances were felt in northern
Upland and along the eastern shore
of Christiania ford and north into Nor
way above Christiania. The Nor
fwegian capital suffered considerable
had lively shake.
Stockholm, tho in the afflicted dis
trict, did not feel the slight shock
which was plainly recorded by sci
entific instruments.
The tremors of the earth began about
1870 am. and lasted only Is seconds.
An hour or so afterward there came
evening still another. These were not
generally noticed, however.
The general movement of the earth
was, from south to north. In the
country districts the people could
plainly see the earth heave like waves
on the water and stone fences wiggled
up and down like huge snakes. Stone
buildings were cracked, chimneys torn
down and minor DANA &c done.
No lives were lost, but many PEG
pie were hurt in the panics at the
churches. At Vor Frelsers church ir
Christiania the crush was so great
that MANY were trampled under fOOt
and were considerably bruised ant
some bones were broken. In mos
cases the ministers sought to avert {
stampede by starting a hymn.
In many places the people though
that Judgment day had come. Som,
were terrified out of their wits ant
were so overcome that they tainted

Boycott a Bishop,

A remarkable boycott against Bishop
Billing of Scania, Sweden, has bees,
fostered by the school teachers of
Malmo. Prior to the arrival of the
bishop on one Of his periodical visits
for the purpose of catechizing the chill
dren, the teachers urged their pupils
to remain away. The result was that
one-half did so. The teachers are said
to have socialistic ideas and to oppose
the conservatism of Bishop Billing.
Their conduct has caused much discus
sion in the country and is generally
condemned.

Massacre "reminiscences.

This paper has received copy of a
book written by Mrs. Helen Mar Tar
BILE. in which she gives a thrilling ac-
count of her experiences during the
Indian massacre of 1862. She lived on
a homestead on Beaver Falls, a few
miles from Beaver Creek, and on the
first day of the uprising, August 18th,
was captured by the Indians. Carried
into captivity by the savages, she
finally succeeded in escaping with her
two children, aged and 2, and after
terrible hardships reached Fort Ridge
ly. Her little volume tells a story OF
bloodshed and suffering the like OF
which will probably never again be
equalled. It is published by the Alb
bolt Printing company of ST. Paul,
and copies may be secured by sending
so cents to that concern or to Mrs.
Tarble at Dodge Center.

Paymaster James S. Beecher, u. S.
N, who has been in the city since the
training ship Monongahela was or.
dered out of commission, on Friday
received his sailing orders from the
chief of the bureau of navigation. He
is assigned to the cruiser Denver and
must report at Galveston, Texas, mex,
Friday. The Denver is regarded as
one of the finest cruisers in the Ameri.
can navy and the billet is splendid
one for the young officer. AS yet the
vessel is unassigned, but there is a
rumor in naval circles that she is slat.
ed for the European station and will
cross the Atlantic very shortly. Pay
master Beecher left Sunday afternoon
for Galveston, but will spend few
days at the worlds fair enroute.

Will Order Crusher.

Col. Gus Widell of Mankato, vice
president of the New Ulm Stone COM
pany, was in the city Thursday in
consultation with the other officers of
the company. While he was here they
went over a number of bids which have
been received from companies manu-
featuring stone crushers and as soon
as figures can be obtained upon low
speed engine a selection will be made.
On Thursday the work of grading the
new sidetrack into the Redstone quar-
ries was completed and the task of
laying the rails will now be taken up.
The next thing to be attended to by
the company is the erection of build
ings in which to house the engine and
crusher and this work will go to some
local contractor.

Bread and Butter Cards.

W. W. P. Mcconnell of the state
dairy and food commission has ar
ranged to advertise Minnesota's food
products by serving bread and butter
free at the ST. Louis exposition.
The exposition authorities have
given their consent, and the new
feature will be commenced at once.
Advertising matter pertaining to
Minnesota's resources will also be
distributed.
The bread and butter will be pro
vided by Minnesota farmers, and
those who sample it will be informed
at what mill and at what creamery the
bread and butter were produced. By
this means, MIR. Mcconnell hopes to
influence increased patronage for flour
manufacturers and buttermakers OF
the northwest.

CASTS BIG TRIP HAMMER
Chas. Leonhardt Turns Out His First
Machine.

Chas. Leonhardt, proprietor of the
New Ulm Foundry and Machine shop,
has finished casting the first specimen
OF the improved trip hammer he in
vented about a year ago. The NAM
moth machine was turned out last
week and the crew at the local foun-
dry handled it very SUCCESSFULLY. With
IN a short time it will be set up and
given practical working test.
The casting was the largest ever at
tempted in New Ulm and before it
could be made it was necessary to pre-
pare special casting box and large
size ladle. Over a ton of molten metal
was used in making the hammer and
when taken from the mold it was with
out a flaw.
At various times the Review has de-
scribed Mr.. Leonhardt's trip hammer
and 1t is not necessary at this time to
dwell upon its superior qualities. 1t
will be sufficient to say that the invent
or has improved upon the machines
now in use in a number of ways. His
contrlvance possesses several advan-
tages over the hammers with which it
will come in competition and Mr..
Leouhardt is confident that it will be
able to hold it's own in the race for
supremacy. He will fit the various
parts and give it thorough trial,
preparatory to casting other hammers
for the market.

RECRUITING THE ARMY.

The presence of an enlisting officer
for the United States army in this city
and his efforts to secure men for the
service will no doubt cause some of
the boys and young men of the city to
wonder if the service is worth while.
There are two ways of looking at the
matter. Like everything else the young
man who enters the army to make the
most of what it offers, succeeds, but
the one who goes into it because he
thinks he is getting away from hard
labor into haven of rest, fails.
There is much to Recommend the
army to some men. In the first place
it is a sure source of living; it's disci-
pline is just what will make some and
will do no one harm. To the man
VINO enters it as a life work it offers a
steadily increasing scale of wages so
that when he has served nine or more
years he is getting an equivalent in
wages equal to what he would earn at
hard daily toll and when he has seen
thirty years of service he is retired
with a pension sufficient to keep him
the balance of his life in ease and
comfort.
There are many men who have no
ambition except to make a living
who have no settled purpose in life
these men would do better in the army
than out of it. There is always an
element of danger connected with the
service, for there is no knowing when
the settlement of national questions
will demand call to arms, but the
chances are few and as the time passes
are getting fewer.
The Review is not recommending the
army to any young man who lis am
bilious, but to that class of men who
are content to be "hewers of wood and
carriers of water" New Ulm has
very fewIof them but the large cities
have many and it is of this class that
that the army is largely constituted.
Some of them turn out to be excellent
men under the discipline and others
prove hard to handle.

The nomination of Parker of New
York and Davis of West Virginia to
to head the national democratic ticket
is approved by democrats of this city.
They believe that the ST. Louis con-
vention has worked out the problem to
the best interests of all concerned and
look for a democratic victory, at
least in the house of representatives,
If not in the white house. The hope
that is eternal in the breast of every
democrat can not be cooled by the
cyclone which Roosevelt promises to
sweep over this country. After all is
said it must be acknowledged that they
are good fighters.

Candidates for county offices in this
as we'll as other counties are begin
ming to get into the game. We had
hoped the contest would not develop
until later and the evil features of a
primary election be thus narrowed
down to a few weeks at most. Before
we have had to rule on this question
by the application for space for an
nouncements, the Review takes this
advance opportunity to say that any
man who is candidate for any Office
in any party can advertise the fact in
this paper at the usual rate of adver-
Using and that we trust all parties
will do away with the half-tone picture
gallery feature that prevailed two
years ago. Candidates for Office must
realize the utter impossibility of pa
per saying good things for all, and if it
transpires that more than one man in
any one party are candidates for a GER
tain Office the party as we'll as the men
are better off if the mere announce
ment appears than if a paper attempts
to draw conclusions for the people, all
things else being equal. This is the
only safeguard a paper has against
an endless political autobiography
which interests only the men for which
it is written.

INDIANS SChLP BREWERS
Sundays Game Holly Contested For
by Both Teams.

Before fair-sized and enthusiastic
audience the..New Ulm team went down
to defeat to the Sleepy Eye aggrega-
ton on the local diamond Sunday af-
ternoon, the score being 8 to 3.
Pellant was on the slab for Sleepy
Eye and B. Cutting behind the bat,
while Spaeth and Manske held the
points for New Ulm for the first five
innings, when Spaeth was relieved by
| Emmerich.
Pellant succeeded in keeping his
hits well scattered, having only four
chalked up against him during the en-
tire game, while Spaeth was hit for
seven in the first five innings and EN-
merich for two in the balance. Pellant
struck out five men, Spaeth three and
Emmerich seven during the short time
he faced the batters. Neither of the
latter two passed man on balls while
Pellant walked six.
Sleepy Eye secured its initial score
in the first inning, New Ulm failing to
|
score. The second resulted in none
for both sides. In the third Sleepy
Eye connected freely with ball and
aided by a number of errors on the
part of the Brewers, managed to cross
the plate four times, thereby securing
their lead of the game. New Ulm man
aged to get two in their half of the in
ming.
In the fourth and fifth Sleepy Eye
secured another one in each inning
while New Ulm crossed the plate but
once.
A double play, on the part of the
brewers, was feature of the fifth, be-
ing played between Spaeth, Collins
and Metzner.
New Ulm secured it's one run in the
fifth after two men were out and pros
poets doomed up greatly with the fans.
With two men out they succeeded in
getting all bases full and the best men
to bat when a rather close decision,
not at all agreeable to the crowd, made
| the man on third out, thus retiring the
side.
In the next three innings Sleepy
Eye Jared badly in the batting line,
not being able to get one man past
first. At this stage of the game EN-
merich struck out the first seven men
out of the ten that stepped up to bat.
The last four resulted in goose eggs
for the home team, although in the
last inning it seemed as if the hoo doc
had left New Ulm, and again with two
| men out and the bases all occupied
| Collins sent out one of the longest
drives ever executed on the local field
and for a while chances for tieing the
score were very fair, but somehow OF
other Anderson, Sleepy Eyes center
fielder, made just as wonderful a
catch, much to New Ulm's regret anG
ended the game. The score by in.
nings is as follows:

SIGHTS AT THE BIG FAIR
W. B. Mather Tells of His Trip to St.
Louis Exposition.

Yes, [ was out at ST. Louis. Now
don't imagine that I use the word
| ssout" in a sense of losing my money.
[ admit was prodigal, even though
the million or more souvenirs which [
brought back and handed to relatives
and friends We're accepted with looks
that plainly said: "Well, you broke
| your heart remembering me, didn't.
you?"
| It would make book to write all I
did and saw at the Fair. A dainty
little creature with poetic eyes, en-
shrouded in a bright kimona, won my
heart-or a portion of it. a bunch of
brown flesh, with few yards of calico
wrapped about her, in the Igorot vii
lage, looked at me as if she would like
to win the big gilded badge, with
bright streamers, that someone fast
ened to my manly bosom. Ever since
I've wondered whether she thought [
was President Francis or Andrew
Carnegie. An Orientally Dressed beau
ty, whose English was really as 'cul-
chawed" as a Boston DANES, hypno-
tized my loose change and few bills
in exchange for some warranted solid,
l4-dipped Attleboro jewelry, which she
unblushingly told me came from Cal
70. A buxom miss with the ardor of
Alpine heights carolled a refrain that
seemed to say:
s'Pinks and posies, nice red posies,
For the lady fair you vii puy to year.
No? Chess"
| Result: Attractive companion made
more so.
It is surprising what illusions per-
son may indulge in for a small sum at
the Fair. Fifty cents allowed me the
privilege to float lazily in a gondola,
among the beautiful cascades, under
arches thrown over the lagoon, here
and there among massive buildings,
all the while imagining that 1 was an
American millionaire doing Venice.
twenty-five cents aided me to consider
myself a multi-millionaire as [ circled
about the grounds in an auto with
skilled chauffeur. For the same sum
[ felt rich as I was wheeled about in
chair, and [ looked down at the poor
mud-pedalers about me. But when my
pipe went out, and I came back to
earth and saw the immensely of the ex-
hibition buildings; the mammoth total
of exhibits; the grandeur of the cas-
cades, particularly at night; and the
large number of State and National
buildings, then I realized what an in
fnitely small atom I was in the uni
verse. It is a marvelously wrought
collection and [ consider myself fortu-
nate to have been one of the many Wis
itors within the gates of the Fair.
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1904-07-13

The year 1904 will go on record as
one of the most disastrous to human
life that has passed for many years.
Added to the frightful loss of life by
accident is that of the Japanese Rus
sian war. Life seems to be held as
the cheapest possession man has, and
the recklessness with which it is cast
at the feet of fate shows that ambition
overrides all consideration of danger
and blots out all anticipation of re-
suits. It is the spirit of the age; it
mocks contentment, sneers at satisfac-
ton and pressages dissolution. Am
bition makes greatness but it destroys
happiness and rides rough shod over
the lives and hopes of the common
people. The possibility of dying poor
has more terror than the fear of being
unhappy and the result is that in the
race to become rich life has no meas
ure of value.
