We Must Love,

You must love somebody or some
thing. You cannot help it. The ten
drills of the heart will climb up ana
reach out for an object to love. lust as
the roots of a tree will reach out to
clutch hold of the rocks or will sink
themselves into the earth. AS we
must love, cannot you and 1 learn to
love Christ? Cannot we begin to study
and to learn what he has done for US !?
In the record of that beautiful life cam
not we learn to love him as we learned
first 10 love our mothers on account Of
the sacrifices they have made for US !?
Then, having realized what the divine
love means, cannot we learn to do
something for his loves sake? Gods
love can change our actions toward
him if we will only LET It, What are
you going to do with Christ in refer
ence to the hearts loving capabilities?
But | cannot close this subject with
out asking you one more question.
What are you going to have your loved
ones do with Jesus? You have almost
as much influence over some of your
loved ones actions as you have over
your own. If Plate had nrned to
Christ and said: Lord Jesus, thou art

HAVE GOOD CUBAN LAND
DR.. PeaSe OF This City and MeSSrS. Ball,
ReadOn and Adams of
Morgan Interested.
Have Organized the Cuban-American
Land Co., and Will Sell In
40-Acre Tracts.

DIR. G. r. Pease of this city,
Frank Readon, H. M. Ball, DIR. J
L. Adams and other residents of
Morgan, together with Minneapolis
and Bottineau business men, have
organized what is known as the
Cuban-American Land Co. for the
purpose of handling a vast tract of
land which has recently been pur-
chased by them in the Pearl of the
Antilles.
Frank appears to have been the
prime mover in the affair. He has
been in Cuba couple of times dur
ing the past year for the purpose of
looking over the real estate in that
island, and getting the pick of the
choicest offerings. He has spent
many weeks looking over the island
and as a result feels that the land
on which he has secured an option
and which the company will now
buy is one of the very best tracts
on the island. It is located in the
province of Pinar del Rio, and is
known as the Los Vegas and Los
Granadillios ranches, and has been
the property of Francis Bernaza up
to tue time Mr.. Readon secured the
option. It contains what is known
as $50 cabs, or 5000 acres accord
ing to the American measurement.
The land is situated on the north
western coast of the island, and has
the only deep water harbor west of
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1905-05-24

Havana on the north coast. A rail
road has been surveyed from
this harbor across the company
land to an iron mine on an adjoin-
ing piece of property.
DR.. Pease inspected the ranches
on his recent trip to Cuba, and in
an interview with him last We'd
nesday he stated that about 1000
acres of the land was already en-
closed by a fence of seven strands
of barbed wire and hard wood posts
six feet apart. Seven hundred
hogs were raised in this pasture
last year, the fattening for market
being without any other product
than palm berries and wild fruits
grown in the pasture, and they COM
handed the highest market price
when sold. The pasture is divided
into subdivisions.
There are 100000 palms scattered
over what is classed as cleared
lands. The palm trees are valued
at 81 each, the palm leaves being
used for the baling of tobacco, the
matching of roofs and sides of ma
tive huts, and the fruit for feeding
to hogs. About 5000 acres is COW
cred with native woods of different
varieties, such as mahogany, cedar,
little pine and an abundance of
bananas and plantains. The timber
is interspersed with clearings and
the balance of the land is open,
studded with royal palms. All of
the tobacco land is of the highest
quality. Indeed, it is we'll known
that the tobacco plant of the Pinar
del Rio province is regarded as the
finest grown in all of that rich to-
bacco island.
One point of the land is situated
40 miles from the city of Pinar del
Rio, with a population of 10000,
and located on a railroad running
direct to Havana. Wagon roads Of
the best character are laid out from
Pinar del Rio to village on the
ranch, and over them mail is

MASURY'S
House Paints

These paints are not chemical mix
lures and do not contain potash, sill
cate of soda, or soap, in any of their in
finite varieties. On the contrary they
are simply Pure Linseed Oil Paints,
and in every respect the equivalent of
Best White Lead and Oil mixed and
thinned at the time of the application.
We can assure all who have houses
which require painting or repainting,
that better results can be obtained
through the use of these colors than by
the use of any liquid color ever before
offered, under whatever name, and
that these paints are in every respect
superior.

KOCH TRIAL AFTERMATH.
Attorneys for Defense Disappointed and
GEN. ChildS Jubilant.

While the jurors in the Koch trial
agreed that the result Of their bal
loting should remain a secret, it is
pretty generally understood that
the majority favored acquittal.
The attorneys for the defense,
now that third trial has been de-
cided upon by the state, are anxious
to have it commenced at once, and
will move that it be commenced not
later than next week. Gen. Childs,
for the state, does not wish to take
up the case again until some time
next month. The general is oppos-
ed to releasing DR.. Koch on bail
again, and the probabilities are
that if the court refuses the latter
request of the defense that the
third trial will commence at once.
Should it be granted, Judge Cray
is likely to give Gen. Childs his
way as to the time when the third
trial is to be held.
The attorneys for the defense
were all in regretting mood over
the failure of the jury to return a
verdict of acquittaI, and expressed
themselves in that manner. The de-
fendant was deeply disappointed, as
were also his relatives. General
Childs alone seemed exultant over
the outcome, and thinks he will get
his man on the third trial.
The case has cost Brown county
nearly ifnot more than $50, 900. The
The Kochs have been to large ex-
pense and it is probable that it will
reach $4,000. The three leading
attorneys have been drawing $50
per dav each, while two others
have been drawing $50 per day.
Should Koch be finally declared
not guilty it would seem that there
should be some recourse. A poor
man, under like circumstances
would have long since been con
demned to die.

coast steamers make trips from Ha-
vana to Arroyos, the deep sea har-
Dor town, bringing mail and traffic

DR.. Pease stated that the pur-
chase of the two ranches also in
Guided 40 yoke of oxen valued at
5000, three OK carts and a number
OF other implements used in tilling
the soil. Two hundred acres under
cultivation in tobacco brought net
income last year of 5000 and a
gross income of $65, 900. He said
that the plantation of Aroyos del
Mantau includes a substantial
dwelling house with stables and
other necessary outbuildings. A
store building,a storage warehouse,
so Cuban dwellings for workmen,
80 tobacco curing houses and a
school now attended by about 80
children, were also located on the
plantation. A copper mine is To-
Gated near the center of the tract
and is now being operated by capt.
talists who have secured the min
eral rights, but any lands they
might wish to own must be pur-
chased from the newcomers of the
property.
1t is the intention of the Cuban
American Land Co. to cut the en-
tire tract into 40-acre lots and place
them on the market at a certain
price. At the present time Amer
lean capital and American labor are
being turned in that direction and
there is no doubt but that this is
simply the starting point and that
the stockholders of this company
will realize handsomely on their in
vestment.

Change In. Ground Hog Day.

From the old adage as to the
ground hogs appearance ruling the.
closing weeks of winter weather it
would seem that we are to have an
c. ceptfonaIiy short winter and like,
wise early spring. Master ground hog
always appears from his hole of

scribed. If he sees his sh low upon
coming out he goes back to hole again
for six weeks more of hard winter
weather, but if he fails to see his
shadow then he remains out, wien
all may feel that the worst is over
and begin to prepare for seed time
and sowing. This year. however. has
proven an exception to the establish
ed rule. for Com. Fletcher caught a
fine ground hog on the street in front
of Harry Keiser's yesterday, which
had thus ventured' out from his win

just one month ahead of time. Com.
carried him about the streets on his

him as an exhibit of the good omen
proclaimed by his early appearance.
And from his pleasant, amiabie spirit
portrayed. he clearly indicated his be-
lief that the winter was indeed past
and the opening springtime had come
But since the SHOWS have returned
and the billiards. blow, we conclude
that this ground hog has broken the
law and changed the day like false
prophet, or else that he was merely

to get back to his quarters without
any thought of the weather. But he
appeared all the same, although ahead

seeing his own shadow was making

Serious Accident.

Word has just been received by
Charley Higginbotham, of Elkins
street. that his son. Robert, of Elk
hart, Indiana, has met with a serious
accident His friends will remember
that while here on visit TO his par
ents few months ago he was then
nursing his left fore finger, which had
been caught in the bread rolls of the
bakery where he acts as manager.
That injury resulted in the stiffenfng
of his finger for life And now as a
strange coincidence. the message
comes that on the 2Sth inst. his right
hand was caught in the same rolls
and drawn through three-eighths
inch space up to the wrist before the
machine could be stopped He was
taken to the city hospital where his
hand, which had been reduced TO
pulp, was amputated at the wrist, and
he is reported to be doing we'll.
His mother has gone to visit him.

Preeents over Quarter of Million to

- L T" IS = Il Z
BALTIMORE, Jan. Soon after
the fire of last February the trustees
Of the Maryland Institute, which was
entirely destroyed, made statement
of their losses TO Mr.. Andrew Car
negie and asked his aid The CORE
spondence which ensued has led to
the generous proposition contained in
the following letter, now made public
as New Years gift to the citizens
of Baltimore. New vigor is assured
to an institution which for many
years has been of inestimable service
to the people of Baltimore.
The letter of Mr.. Andrew Carnegie
follows:
December Sth, 1904.
My Dear DR.. Gilman:
Yours of December I'd received. AS
understand the situation the total
assets of the Maryland Institute are
$263.0 900, /. e., insurance, $4,000, en-
dowment $4,000, contribution from
the State, $175,OOO.
The city of Baltimore furnished
the institute with a site and it seems
reasonable to expect that it would not
do less when the institute is ready to
rebuild.
| presume that an amount equal to
what it has now, $263,O00 would pro
vide suitable building, the site be-
ing given by the city.
If this be arranged. it will give me
great pleasure to furnish that sum,
which would duplicate the assets for
the erection of building
