COMEDY OF ARKANSAW LIFE
Final Rehearsals For ssThe Man
From Arkansas
Play Will be Given in Turner
Theatre Saturday.
McGovern and Doty Will Have
Well-DrilIed Cast.

On Saturday and Monday evenings,
May 28th and Both, the rural comedy
drama, s'The Man From Arkansas"
will be given in the Turner Theatre.
Messrs. J James Z. McGovern and Bert
Doty, both experienced actors, have
charge of the production and they will
be ably assisted by local talent, their
support consisting of Messrs. r. L.
English, Geo. zickrick, Cleveland
Frederick and Arthur Dengler, and
the Misses Hertha Weschcke, Emily
Friton8and Emma Tyrrel. It would
have been difficult, indeed, to select a
stronger company and the public may
rely upon their giving two pleasing
performances.
In another column the Review pub
fishes the cast of characters and a
synopsis of the play, but it does not
give an adequate idea of the beauty of
the latter. ssThe Man From Arkan-
sas" essentially a pastoral drama
and is intended to faithfully portray
all the lights and shadows of rural
life in the quaint old southern state.
In it, however, the comical and lu-
dicrous is ever present and there are
numberless laughable situations.
When presented at Redwood Falls
the sketch made great hit and in
other places it has been equally sue
cessful. Press notices which it has
received say that from the rise of the
curtain on the first act until it's fall at
the close of the last there is never a
moment in which the play is dull or
tedious. AS the plot unfolds interest
is increased rather than diminished
and the audience is not given an OPP
portunity to become apathetic.
/ Mr.. Doty, the comedian, is an artist
of note in his profession and Mr.. Nc
Govern has established wide repu-
tation for his minute delineation OF
character parts. They have spared
no pains in the training of their less
experienced associates and the latter
have profted greatly by their in.
struction. Rehearsals have been hello
almost daily and before the date O.
the first presentation the participants
will be able to carry their roles with
out danger Of mistake.

TO PLAY BLOOMER GIRLS
New Ulm Will Gross Bats With Ladies
Sunday.

One of the most exciting and interest
ing ball games of the season will take
place at the fair grounds next Sunday,
May 10Th, at 3 p. m. The opponents
of the local team will be the famous
and original Boston Bloomer Girls.
This team was first organized in 1888
by w. P. Needham, the manager, and
Judging from the fattering press
notices being showered upon them, our
boys will have to play ball in order to
secure a victory.
The Bloomer Girls do not expect to
draw crowds entirely on account of
the novelty of being lady baseball
players, but really put up a very
creditable exhibition of the national
game. Last season out of l63 games
played, they won 96, lost 81 and tied
| 10. The longest game was fifteen
inning contest at Denison, Iowa, in
which neither side scored.
The ladies have their own palace car
and have travelled extensively, having
/ played in all the large cities of the
/ United States and Canada. The club
has been strengthened from year to
year and their lineup this season is
the equal of anything in the amateur
or semi-professional class. Don't fail
/ to see them. Admission 25 cents.

TEAM WENT THROUGH ICE.
Unusual Law Suit Tried Before
District Court.
Jurors Gave the Plaintiff Value of
His Horses.
Disagreement i'm the Williams Life
Insurance Case.

Persons who remove ice from lakes
or streams must take precautions look
ing to the protection of travellers, &C
cording to verdict rendered yester-
day morning by a jury in an action
tried before the district court. The
case was that of Martin Nicholson
against Herman eNundahl and Silver
Nundahl. Last winter the defendants
stocked an ice house from Linden Lake,
near Hanska, and while returning
home in a binding snow storm the
plaintiff drove into the hole. He bare
ly escaped with his life and lost a
team of valuable horses.
It appeared that Linden Lake was
used as a highway during the winter
months and the plaintiffs attorneys,
Hoidale & Somsen, claimed that the
Nundahls were guilty Of contributory
negligence for failing to fence off the
ole or otherwise protect passersby.
They showed that there was travel on
both sides of the spot and that it was
in dangerous proximity to the roads,
asking $500 damages. The jurors re-
tired at O'Clock Monday evening and
returned a few hours later.
Yesterday morning atthe opening OF
court their verdict was read and it
gave the plaintiff the sum of SlS3.98,
| the value of his team, with interest.
Judge Weber granted the defendants
a stay of proceedings for fourteen
days.
There was not much work for the
grand jury at this term of court. They
returned one Indictment and were dis.
charged by the court Wednesday
morning. John Doll, the person in
dicted, is the man who is accused o:
stealing silver watch from Roy Cur
rent of Milford, on Dec. Is, 1903, ant
the grand jury charged him with grand
larceny in the second degree. He was
arraigned Thursday morning and ent
cred a plea of not guilty.
One of the cases on the criminal cal
endar was quickly disposed Of Thurs
day morning Heman Schleuder ap
peared in court and was allowed t.
plead guilty to petit larceny, ate
which Judge Weber sentenced him t.

NEW UIN. COUNTY, MINI.

After a jury had been impanelled in
the action brought by Tape & Co.
against Pfeiffer g. Co., the attorneys
for the opposing factions effected
settlement and the case was dismissed.
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1904-05-25

The first case to actually go to trial
was that of Anton Hirsch VS.. the SUI
pervisors of the township of Prairie
vile. It was a controversy over a
road and Hoidale & Somsen, Hirsch's
attorneys, introduced evidence to show
that it was never legally laid out.
Judge Weber finished his charge to
the jury late Thursday afternoon and
in the early hours of the following
morning the twelve good men and true
reached an agreement to award the
plaintiff damages in the sum of 81.
After the Hirsch case was disposed
of that of John Norman against D. Z.
Williams was taken up. Norman, as
special agent for the New York Life
Insurance company, sold Williams a
policy for $4,000 and the latter gave
promisory note for S225.OO in pay
ment. This he subsequently, repudiat-
ed and Norman brought suit to recov-
er on it. At the trial Williams set up
the defense that the policy had been
misrepresented. He claimed that Hor-
man agreed to write a twenty payment
document but when it was delivered he
found it to be a straight life policy.
The attorneys finished their arguments
Friday afternoon and the case went to
the jury just before 6 O'Clock. After
being out until 10 o'clock Saturday
morning they were unable to reach an
agreement and were discharged by the
court.
| Judge Weber on Saturday reversed
the decision of the justice court which

uage. Her attorneys. Somerville &
Olsen, appealed on points Of law and
were sustained.
Chas. Neid against Bernard Schuel-
| Ter, Anton Steffen and Michl Weiss
was another case that was completed
Saturday. Neid sought to recover or
a promisory note and as there was nc
appearance on the part of the defend
ants he was given judgment in the sun
of S4l8.45.
Simon Star, plaintiff, VS.. Mar.
Guttem, defendant, went to trial Sat
urday. Simon asked to have SIG
which he had given to Mrs. Guttur
refunded and some of the >testimon
was of a very racy nature. The jur
thought that Simon should be rein
bursed to the extent of S32.

FIGHTING AMONG CHRISTIANS.
MscedonIans. Hate Each Other Worse
Than Turks.

The London Standard prints long
letter from Constantinople dealing
with the situation in Macedonia. The
writer says there has been remark
able change In the last six months.
Formerly 1t was a question of protect
ing the Christian population against
violence, but now 1t has become one
Of Intervention between various Chris
tian elements. Since the policing of
Macedonia has been taken out of Tur-
keys hands, the correspondent says,
there have been recurring conflicts
between rival nationalities, Bulgars,
Serbs and Greeks, accompanied by
barbarities quite as bad as those with
which the Turks were formerly re-
preached. The truth is. according to
the Standards correspondent, each OF
these Christian elements wants indie
pendence, and their hatred of each
other exceeds their detestation of the
Turks.

GREAT BATTLE AT HAND.

Daily Encounters Between Japanese
and Russians In the Far East.
A dispatch to the Berlin Lokal An.
zeiger from Mukden, under date of
November FL, says:
The reconnaissance fights have as
sumed more violent character dur
Ing the past few days. Particularly
not was the fighting on Poutiloff
(Lone Tree) hill, where the Japanese
were repulsed with loss of over 100
killed. All signs indicate that great
events are imminent. The road to
Simmintin, owing to the excellent pa-
trol service, is quite safe from Chinese
bandits, thus guaranteeing unhindered
communication with Tisn Tsin and
establishing second line of inter
course with the outside world.
