New Stone Company.

A second STONE company has been
organized and new quarry will be
opened in New Ulm this summer AL
fred Boock and Fred Nagel, whose
contracting operations under the firm
name of F. Nagel & Co., have been
very extensive in the past, are the par
ties who will inaugurate the new enter
prise and they have already leased the
property which they will quarry. It
lies east of the Chas. Grussendorf
farm and a deal which they made last
week gives them the privilege of work
ing it. Messrs. Nagel and Book do
not intend to do large shipping bus
ness at the outset but will aim to sup
ply stone for use in the city and imme-
date vicinity. They have begun
stripping and will soon open the ledge.

Opera House Attraction.

How Hopper was Sidetracked"
which plays at the New Ulm opera
house next Sunday evening, April Sd,
was written by julie Walters, and has
made him $40, 900 during the past five
years. The story opens in the Klon-
dyke, and deals with the adventures
of Happy Hopper, who manages to
get there at the right time. There is a
beautiful love story running through
the play, and Happy Hopper, who
sells windmills, invests his part with
the sunshine of a warm. sympathetic,
fun-loving nature whose mirth is con-
tagious.

FRIENDSHIPS.
Those of Long Standing and Those
Made In Later Life.

Those of Long Standing and Those
Made In Later Life.
People make friends later than they
used to, or at least SO it seems to us,
probably because they grow old in gen.
eral later than they did. Friendship
must change its nature with advancing
years, but whatever makes later life
full of activities and new beginnings
causes friendships also to begin at
even the later stages Of the journey.
OF two old men early friends who had
quarreled Coleridge said:
They stood aloof, the scars remaining,
Like cliffs which had been rent asunder.
Such an image of course gives power
fully the sense of fixity, the opposite of
the fluid potentially Of youth. Yet in
the same poem we have the hint that
not all is glorious in youth:
And constancy lives in realms above,
And life is thorny. and youth is vain.
Friendship becomes rid of some van
ity, it becomes more noble and satisfy
when the roots Of it grow back into a
long distant past, and if we can keep
the power Of making a few new
friends in age as we need them to sup
plement those inherited from youth,
which grow fewer with the years, but
ripper and more select, friendship should
play satisfying role far along toward
the end of life, the best role indeed of
It's career, if, as Emerson thinks, a life
time is needed for it's completeness,
while an hour Or a day is enough for
toll Or play. The late friendships of the
unmarried, the childless and the Wild
owed have a special necessity and
pathos of their own, for mates and
children to a large extent at certain
periods naturally take the place Of
other friends.-Colliers Weekly.

Thursday of Holy week is the ami

the fast is most rigidly observed.
There is no mass in the Catholic

stripped of it's ornaments and the
sanctuary is draped in black.
Holy Saturday is observed in the
Catholic churches by the chanting of
the prophetic passages Of the Old Tes-
lament pointing to the resurrection of
Christ.
