PROSPECT OF THIRD LINE
Milwaukee Road Planning to En-.
ter New UIm.
May Build Short Line Down From
Granite Falls.
Would Greatly Benefit Mills and
Other Industries.

Information has reached influential
New Ulm men that officials of the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & st. Paul railway
have plans under consideration that
will mean much to this city. They
contemplate building a cutoff" from
Granite Falls to Mankato, to connect
the Hastings & Dakota and Southern
Minnesota divisions of their road,
and in the event of the line being con-
structed it would pass through New
Ulm. A very natural result would be
that the city's value as a shipping
point would be greatly enhanced, its
milling industries would be aided in
calculably and all its commercial in
terests uplifted.
It is understood that the Milwau-
KEGS principal reason for wanting a
short line to connect with it's Southern
Minnesota road is to overcome the
present long haul on grain and cattle
which it brings from Western Mime
sofa and North and South Dakota.
AS things now are, all of these ship
ments are brought down through
Ortonville, but after reaching Granite
Falls the road turns to the eastward
and then runs north into the Twin Cit
les, a portion of the haul being practi-
cally lost, as it doubles back in a di-
rection that has once been covered. In
the case of stock, for instance, the
trains travel hundred miles or more
out of their way and, as the officials
are fully alive to the necessity of car
rying this class of freight with the
greatest dispatch, it is patent that the
mileage should be reduced whenever
possible. The branch line leading
south from Sanborn, which was built
by the Chicago & Northwestern few
years ago, furnishes an example OF
modern methods Of facilitating stock
transportation and it is safe to assum e
that the increase in the volume of this
business paid the cost of construction
many times over.
The desire to defect the wheat ship
ments over the proposed line is not an
unnatural one. Every year the Mil
waukee handles millions of bushels o:
grain on it's northwestern system
/ With its feeders extending into tht
most remote of the harvest fields o
North and South Dakota and draining
those of a large area of Minnesota, i
! is one of the greatest wheat carriers il
the world and annually lays down i'm
mense quantities of the cereal in Min
neapolis.
At the big milling center the graf
is converted into -four but after thi
, process the Milwaukee must enter int,

READJUST RURAL ROUTES
Deliveries Will be Arranged to
Serve More People.
Congressman McCleary Receives
Promise of County System.
Also Requests Free City Delivery
For Sleepy Eye.

Brown county is soon to be provid-
ed with the full county rural free de-
livery service. Congressman James
Z. McCleary was before the officials
of the postal department last Wednes-
day and from them secured the prom
ise that the system would be inaugu-
rated here in the near future, and also
that several other counties in his dis
trict would be similarly supplied later.
Representative McCleary has been
corresponding with the department for
some time relative to this matter but it
did not come to a head until last
week. The order granting it will mean
that almost every rural route in the
county will be readjusted, making it
possible to serve a greater number of
people than heretofore. In the past it
has been customary for farmers wish
ing the delivery to frame a petition
and procure one hundred signers, as
required by the postal regulations.
These persons were secured wherever
possible and there was no systematic
planning of the routes, it falling to
! the inspectors to make the most of the
material presented to them.
A very natural sequence was that
the routes were not always convenient
ly arranged, case in point being the
Inability to give the service to the people
living near Clear Lake, just east of
1.-The city. Farmers residing on either
tside of that sheet of water have their
mail delivered regularly but Clear
Lake lies between two routes and neith-
Ter was planned to include it. Thus
the residents of that particular vicini-
ty were deprived of the benefits of the
/ service, but they will probably be ac-
accommodated under the new order of
things.
i The county system allows the in
i spectors to use their udgment and dis
erection in mapping out the routes.
They will arrive soon and go over all
of them thoroughly, after which the
deliveries will be planned to follow
the best roads and serve the most peo-
pie. In no event will a patron be de.
prived of the service but more will be
added. 1t may develop that a greater
number of routes will be required to
| cover the territory and this condition
: will be met by the appointment of ad
5 ditional carriers.
3 During his conference with the post
4 Office authorities Congressman Nc
l Cleary took up the question of cit,
!, delivery for Sleepy Eye. The depart
S ment will order an investigation of tn
d matter soon, which will also includ
It the question of whether the people Q
/, Sleepy Eye are desirious of having tn
e carrier system.

GROOM DID NOT APPEAR
Joseph RiCkerel DeCamped the Day
Before His Wedding.

A small sensation was precipitated
on the people in the town of Leaven-
worth and vicinity last Tuesday when
Joseph Rickerel failed to show up at
his proposed wedding with Thresa
Reiter. All arrangements had been
made, even to the priest, Rev. Rant of
st. Mary's church, going out that
morning to perform the ceremony.
The prospective groom is a young
man of probably twenty-five years of
age and his bride to be is not over
eighteen years of age. The sudden
disappearance of Rickerel on Monday
is not a surprise to some of his
intimate acquaintance. He seriously
objected to forced marriage and left
for parts unknown. His address is not
known The friends of the young
lady are indignant at the young mans
actions. Rickerel is said to have a
home in Iowa.-Sleepy Eye Herald.

Green River, Utah, Dec. go
Especial. Utah first steamboat,
except for pleasure purposes, is soon
to be launched at this place and
to ply between here and Moab, the
county seat of Garfield county, and
on the Grand river. 1t is the Cliff
Dweller," with a tonnage of 10
tons, and twelve state rooms for
passengers. besides n mail, express
and baggage compartment, 1t will
run down the Grand river from Mo-
alb and thence up the Green TO Green
River station.
From here to the point where
the Green empties into the Grand
is distance of about sixty miles,
and about an equal distance from
there to Moab. Besides carrying a
fun cargo of freight, doing away
with the wagon haul of thirty miles
from the railroad at Thompson S
Springs. the boat will furnish a side
trip for tourists, some of the grand
est scenery in the west being along
the route.
The boat is owned by Chicago and
Grand Junction. Colo, people, and
already a half-dozen Raymond and
Whitcomb excursions are booked in
conjunction with the Denver & Rio
Grande for next year While the
boat proper is together and ready to
be launched, the owners are waiting
for the machinery, which will ar
rive in about two weeks. 1t will be
run by gasoline and electricity. If
the present type of boat is a success,
and there is no doubt of it, others
are to be constructed along the same
lines in sufficient number to take
care of the business as It develops
The boat was built in Grand
Junction lumber yard by J j. Lums-
den. the well known contractor and
builder. The work of erecting the
boat consumed the greater part of
the summer.

Chicago, Dec. Especial y
n. w. Ferris, recent democratic can
didate for governor of the state of
Michigan, in an address before the
National Commercial Teachers Fed
GRAFTON here, has advised women
stenographers in general not to mar
ry until they are in a position to
support a husband.
Until a woman is able to sup
port husband she should not con-
template matrimony," declared Mr.
Ferris. while I believe it is the
duty of every woman to marry. still
1 also believe that before taking so
serious a step a girl should look
ahead and prepare for possible fu-
ture misfortunes. Therefore, every
girl should fit herself for an emer-
gency and be prepared to step into
her husbands place in the support
of the family in the event of any
thing Detailing him which will un-
fit him for work"

SEEN GOING
UP CUTLER
MOUNTAIN

Colorado Springs, Dec. 30.-CSpe-
cialD Many new clues were re-
ceived by the police yesterday which
merely strengthen the information
they had as to the time Milton
Franklin, alias Bouton, was in the
city in company with Mrs. Bessie
Bouton. 1t has been learned that
Bouton was introduced at the Pixies
Peak Club, the Commercial Club and
the Crescent Club under the name of
George Barnett
He was first introduced at the
two latter clubs, but the stakes
played for were not big enough for
him and he was promised a game
without limit, but in the mean
time was introduced at the Pixies
Peak Club where he found game
that suited him. II is reported that
the first night he went broke, but
the next two nights he won quite
a large sum.
During the time he stopped at
the Laclede rooming house on Pixies
Peal, avenue and at the Cough hotel.
The last trace which the police
have yet obtained of the couple is
dated about October 20.
Shortly prior to this, they are
known to have taken several drives
in the direction of Cheyenne canon
and were seen by citizens who now
remember the description of the cou-
pie.
They were seen climbing the sides
of Cutler mountain; they were re-
peatedly seen on the street cars go
ing to the oanons, and it is known
that upon three afternoons they var
led their outing by going to Manitou,
but always returned to this city for
an evening dinner at either the Nc
Rae cafe or the Vegetarian cafe.

and later called on the governor
He was named by the Mine Owners
association for the place. w. G..
Evans has accepted him and Simon
Gugenheim has endorsed him, there
fore he is practically sure of the job.
1t was reported some time ago
that Judge Northcutt of Las Animas
county was to be given the place.
1t is stated that he could have the
appointment, but declined to accept
it because his ambition is for high
er post-a United States senatorship.
Judge Northcutt was urged for the
place by the Colorado Fuel & Iron
Company.
George p Steele is a young law
yer whose principal distinction is
that he is nephew of Governor
Peabody.

AMERICANS EAT LIQUID EGGS.

(
Pittsburg, Pa. Dec. 3O,-(Spe-
cial Liquid eggs are something
the average egg user knows nothing
of. They are not the kind common
ly found at the hurry up restau-
rant counters and they do not sell
at &c each You do not order them
soft boiled or scrambled, and yet
Pittsburgers eat thousands of them
every year and never know it.
The liquid egg has just come to
light because Secretary of Agricul-
ture Wilson has discovered that
practically all the liquid eggs i'm
ported into this country. are pre-
served with boric acid or with bor-
AK. These materials have been
found dangerous to put into the hui
man stomach, and Secretary Wilson
has requested the secretary of the
treasury to forbid any further i'm
portation of them Thousands of
cases Of liquid eggs are received
from Germany and other European
countries.
The effect OF the order, if it is
carried out, will be to boom the mar
llet for the Armours, tine Swifts. and
the other big western packing hous-
es which make practice of "freez-
ing" eggs, as the dealers call it. In
this country what is called liquid
egg" is known as a frozen egg. ."
They are used by the hundreds Of
thousands of cases.
The big western packers, particu-
larly those of Chicago, put eggs up
in this way. They use only the
seconds" that is. eggs which have
been cracked, or are dirty. or are
undersized and will not readily sell
as first class fresh eggs. If the shell
of an egg gets wet or dirty it will
not do for storage Air can then
work through the shell and it will
spoil So all of this kind are sorted
out and frozen.
Just what the formula is no local
dealer could tell. but they are put
up in thirty-pound tin cans. Each
can is supposed to hold the meat of
a case of eggs. But it does not. A
case of eggs will produce thirty-fve
to thirty-siX pounds of meat. That
is without the shell. The canned
goods sell at 15c pound. and they
are used by bakers, eonfectioners
and coffee roasters the world over.
They are cheaper than the case
goods.

tration lists, slips, etc, as well as
the method of registration, will be
Investigated after the ballot boxes
have been opened. Both sides will
contribute equally to the expenses of
the Investigation. The examination
of the ballot boxes will not be al
lowed to interfere with any inves-
tigation which may be instituted by
the general assembly. The boxes al
ready opened will not be reopened.
The examination will not interfere
with election contempt cases, which
will be continued to be tried as fast
as time will permit.
The final order arranging for ad-
ditional details will be drawn up
by mutual agreement of counsel on
both sides and presented for the ap-
proval of the court next Tuesday

I tis common talk in military cir
cles that plans have been quietly
prosecuted for the fortifying of the
three armories in Denver and the
storing of military supplies in the
basement of the state house.
The reason given is that Adiu-
tant General Bell imagines some
sort of trouble will occur during
Inauguration week and is preparing
himself for any emergency.
1t is given out on good authority
that store rations and ammunition

A Popular Presiding officer.

In the accounts of the sessions of
the Colorado State Bee Keepers As
soc.ation, in progress at West Tur-
ner hall in Denver this week, given
by the Denver papers. the work of
James U. Harris of this city, the
president of the state and national
organizations, is spoken of in the
most complimentary terms. The fol-
lowing is taken from the Denver
Post:
1.-THE meetings of the association
are presided over by James U. Har-
ris of Grand Junction, one of the
most widely known bee experts in
the country. In addition to being
president of the Colorado organiza-
tion, Mr.. Harris fills the highest of
flce of the National Association of
Bee Keepers. having been elected at
the convention held in st. Louis in
September. at which several hun
dred delegates were present, many
of them from foreign countries.
Among the reports that will be
read before the convention is one
showing that during the past year
there was produced in Colorado p
100000 pounds of honey. The to-
tai production for the United States
was about 25,OOO.0OO pounds
enough to fill a train of cars twenty
five miles long.
Besides the president, the Off
GERS of the association who are in
attendance at the convention are:
NJ. A. Gill of Longmont, vice pres
ident: Mrs. r. A. Rhodes of Den
yer. treasurer. and r. c. Aiken of

AFTER THE WIFE BEATERs.

Washington, Dec. 3O.-(Speciai) }
In consequence of single passage
in President Roosevelt s>annual mos
sage to congress, a movement has
been started in the District of Col
umbia which may result in the es-
tablishment of the whipping post in
the national capital for wife beat
ers. In his message the president
said:
THE wife beater, for example, is
inadequately punished by imprison-
ment, for imprisonment may often
mean nothing to him; while It may
cause hunger and want to the wife
and children who have been the vic
Tins of his brutality. Probably some
form of corporeal punishment would
be the most adequate way of meet
ing this kind of crime.
Interviews with clergymen, police
officers. judges and others who come
in touch with the criminal classes
and understand the brutalizing in
fiuence of the man who beats his
wife, show that there is a strong
sentiment in favor of setting up the
whipping post in the capital of the
nation.
