Or, KOCH No Gul|L. TY|
IS the Verdict Returned BY Jury
il Famou, New lJlm Case
.... Tried Three Times.


What was without 4 doubt the most
intensely interesting murder case ever
tried In the state has just come to :
close 1t MAnkato, the jury returning
. verdict Of mot guilty. !" Three times
Dr.. Koch was brought before jury
to face the charge OF the mur der OF
DR.. Gebha ardt, at New Ulm, on Nov
l last: Two times the jury disagreed
but this time . verdict Of not guilty
was brought In. No case could pos.
sibly have been fought more bitterly
than this one. Thousands OF dollars
were spent by both sides and the most
able lawyers ID the state were en-
ployed in fighting the case. AS there
10 no suspicion resting upon any other
man the New Ulm tragedy will doubt.
less remain mystery which will per.
haps never be cleared up. ~.

The Presbyterian Sunday school pic
mic held on the island last Thursday
was quite largely attended and the
youngsters especially enjoyed them
selves immensely. Tie day WAS IN
ideal one for an outing, 10 spite Of the
threatening weather which prevailed
In the early part { + the day. A num-
ber of the older people joined the pic
nickers for dinner and helped 10 "sup-
pl, ing the inner man " During the
afternoon the children were treated to
rides in the launch "Varuna," which
had been chartered for the day.

Cramp In the Legs.

People who are subject to cramp In
the legs should always be provided
with a good strong piece Of cord, espe-
cially in their bedrooms When the
cramp comes on take the cord, wind it
round the leg over the place where it
Is cramped, take an end in each hand
and give it sharp pull, one that will
hurt little, and the cramp will cease
instantly. People much subject to
cramp in bed have found great relief
from wearing on each leg garter OF
wide tape which has several thin slices
Of cork stitched on to it.

Lacerated His Thumb.

The pleasure OF the Presbyterian
Sunday School picnic held last Thurs-
day was marred to some extent by an
accident which beiell G, 81, Sherwood,
one OF the teachers of the school and
who Was also on the committee on ar-
rangements. During the afternoon
the children were being taken out on
the lake for 4 ride on the launch.
While making landing with one OF
the boat loads at the Foot Lake bridge
MIR. Sherwood had the thumb on his
right hand caught between one OF the
awning props and bridge spile and
that member Was quite badly lacerat-
ed. The flesh was 80 badly torn that it
WAS necessary to consult q ply sician
and he was at once taken across the
lake to the city. The injury will ren.
der him helpless a. far as his right
hand Ia concerned, for several weeks.

Minute Animal Life.

THE microscope teaches u.s." says a
scientist, that there are animals so
wonderfully minute that ii a thousand
Of them were ranked abreast they
could easily swim, without being
thrown out Of order, through the eye
Of the finest cambric needle ever made.
Yet each Of the minute creatures Is a
highly organized number Of particles,
capable Of moving about, Of finding
and devouring food and of behaving in
all respects as becomes an animal as
distinguished from a fragment Of un-
organized matter" The human mind
10 utterly incapable Of realizing the
structure of these little creatures and
Of fully appreciating their marvellous
adaptation to the life they are des-
tined to lead.

A Queer Thing About July.

4 Queer ThinG About July.
How we came to pronounce July as
We do now with the accent on the Sec
ond syllable is one Of the unsolved mys-
teries Of speech. Named, Of course, aft
er Julius Caesar, It should really be pro-
nounced to rhyme with duly" and so
our forefathers actually did pronounce
it. Spenser, for instance, has the line.
.''Then came hot July boyling like to
fire." and even 90 late as Johnson's 8
time the accent was still on the "Ju."
It is one of many words which would
startle those ancestors Of ours, spoken
as we speak them now.-London

Destroy the Weeds.

There are . number of places in the
city where we< d. are allowed to -four
ish and conse quently such premises
present any thing but fine appearance
Our citizens should do oil in their
power to keep their premises free from
obnoxious weeds. We believe there is
"a ordinance against allowing such q
state of sff airs to exist and it would be
we'll for I'll property owners to heed it]
Let US al join in : general movement
to rid ourselves Of the high weeds
which not only disfgure the premises
on which they are allowed to flourish
but which also In some instances are
liable to oct as disease breeders.

The End Of the World.

inc Emu Ox tnS " O1AOs
That the earth will eventually dry up
and all living things will die Of thirst
is the theory Of a. scientific writer. he
says that in both Africa and Asia, and
indeed In all the great levels OF the
world, the water beds are drying up.
Many lakes we'll known during the his
torical period have entirely disappear
ed; while others are shrinking rapidly.
Explorations in central Asia have
proved that for centuries zone stretch
ing from the east to the southeast OF
this part of the cars dominion has
been drying up. Deserts are gradually
spreading, and reports show that it Is
only in the neighborhood Of mountains,
round whose brows vapors condense
and fall, that irrigation can be carried
on or life itself can be preserved"
