The Gurleys can be counted among the
fast teams of the league, and the league
needs such teams.
Both Sides Played Well.
The playing was even from the first,
both sides batting evenly, and fielding
pretty evenly. The Mount Pleasant boys

BUY ASBESTOS CURTAIN
Turner Theatre Will Take Precautions
Against Fire.

Since the Iroquois theatre horror in
Chicago, playhouses all over the
country have been increasing their
precautions against fire and making
every provision forsthe protection Of
their patrons. In this respect New
Ulm is in line with other cities, for
the members of the Turnverein are ar
ranging to better the fire protection at
the Turner Theatre.
They will have the fire escapes COM
pleted and will also purchase an as
bestos curtain. The latter will be
something of an innovation in a city
the size of New U1m, but the managers
Of the house feel that the security it
will provide will more than compen-
safe them for the expense which its
purchase will require.
At present the matter is in very in
definite shape but action upon it will
be taken within a short time.

FOR PEOPLES PROTECTION
Aldern1en do Not Want Theatre
Fires in New UIm.
Instructed Committee to Inspect
Public Buildings.
Street Commissioners Actions to
Be Investigated.

Fire protection, as found in the
public buildings of New Ulm, was an
interesting subject of discussion at the
meeting of the council last night. The
aldermen do not want q REPETITION of
the Iroquois disaster if they can
prevent it and they have instructed the
committee on buildings to inspect all
the large structures in the city and re-
port upon conditions as they find them.
At present the city has no ordinance
compelling theatres and other build
ings to put in fire exhits and escapes
but one will probably be drawn.
"A communicated was received criti-
.cising the conduct of Street Com
missioner Chas. Klatz. It was ordered
placed on file and Aids. Nagel, Amann
and Gieseke were appointed a com
mittee to Investigate his actions.
Chas. Toberer's resignation as a
member of the fire department was
accepted and it was reported that the
Northwestern had altered the con
: H
nections of their electrical gong SO as
to prevent its continual ringing. The
council entered into a contract with the
General Electric company to furnish
meters for the ensuing year.
E. G. Koch, the Cottonwood cream
cry and the New Ulm Moller Mill Co.
petitioned the aldermen for electric
light connections. It will cost the
city about S75 to put in light at Koch's
and $40 at the creamery, and the mat
ter was referred to the committee on
lights. The new hook and ladder
truck was accepted and the first in
stallment of 81, 100 ordered paid.
It was voted to enlarge Hose House
No. and to quarter the old hook and
ladder truck in it. Bills amounting
to S2,628.60 were allowed.

The Eace Of ~ En.ine.

A writer in the London Saturday Re
view comments upon the fact that a
railway engine has a face and that the
face has an expression. Look at an
engine" says the writer, "and you can
see that one looks noble simply noble
In its strength; another, gigantic in
force, but not noble an expression of
mere brute strength. Some engines
have a lofty, almost supercilious, ex-
preston; others almost foolish. Some
have an air Of SNUG stoutness. Then
there are engines that distinctly look
angry and others comparatively gentle.
What is the key to this physiognomy
Where is the seat Of expression? On
the whole. it seems to be the funnel"
