cally safe from pursuit of the law, and
that it was from this play that the fee
ing cashier got the idea Of his destiny.
In the second act Of 1.-THE Umpire
there is a foot ball game that fgura-
lively arouses riot of enthusiasm in
every audience that sees it. Twenty
two young girls line up in complete
foot ball armor and engage in regu-
lar out and-out contest that is as much
in earnest as many intercollegiate
games. There are runs and half a
dozen other gridiron proceedings &C
complished as skillfully as if a pen
nant were at stake, and it occasionally
happens that the play becomes SO sin
cere that time has to be called while
the bruised half-backs nurse their in
juries. The perfect illusion of the
game is due to the fact that the players
were coached by no less authority than
Prof. A. Stagg, athlethic director and
foot ball coach of the University of
Chicago.
'iThe Umpire" is one of tho Sc blithe
musical comedy affairs that fairly
sweeps the audience with it by reason
OF its sunny comedy, haunting music,
and swift dramatic action. It is to be
seen at the Turner theatre, Sunday
evening, Sept. 80, presented by Mana
ger Harry Askin's company, which is
headed by Fred Mace, Guelma Baker,
Edith Warrington, Harry Hanlon, and
other well-known comedians. The
famous Umpire "broilers will be in
evidence, submitting as one of the
features of their portion of the enter
tainment, a realistic foot ball game.

OTTOMEYER'S TEN CENT STORE
Old Review Office to be Turned
Into Busy Place.

For nearly year the room in the
Ottemeyer block that was used for the
Office of the New Ulm Review, has
stood empty and has brought the own
er no returns. Arrangements are now
being made by the proprietor, G. A..
Ottomeyer, to stock the place with a
line of ten cent articles, or rather to
open branch of his present business
in the place and sell all things that
are in the store for the one price per
article of ten cents.
In order to accomplish this he is
having some changes made in the bar
Der shop, giving this institution an en-
trance into the basement from the rear
of the shop, and SO closing the en-
trance from the shop to the basement
; through the store. The place is being
shelved and tables and counters will
be placed in there and the enterprise
will be opened in a very short time.
There will be a general assortment
of small things in the stock, some of
which will be worth much more than
ten cents, but the price will be the
same for all, and will be handled in
connection with the dry goods depart
ment of the Otto never store and will
be complete in every respect.

u
and finds that patient suffering from
cramps and chills, he does not base
his treatment on the cramps or the
chills, but upon their cause. Now, in
all honesty, how can a man do his
duty when the electors-upon whom he
is depending for a livelihood con-
tinually remind him that favors to
them will tend to shape his course?
How can a man be honest, when the
work he is in will make him enemies if
he is honest?
The appointment of the assessor I'M
der civil service rules, might avail
little it the bodies ahead of him we're
dishonest. And SO we must aim for
the highest principled men to engage
in this work for the different commune
ties. This branch of elective Offices
should be kept as free and pure from
politics as possible. Purity would
seem to be even more necessary here
than elsewhere, because, as stated in
the beginning, taxation is the corner
stone of organized society. Sc far, I
have talked about the honesty of the
officials but that does not answer the
question of public Or individual hon.
esty. If men have money in banks and
will not tell how much they own, how
are we to compel them to divulge the
tY,1n TO- l~l
les have been figuring on that propo-
sltlon for years. And we are always
brought face to face with constitution
al rights. However, let us hope the
day will come when the government
that has the privilege and power to
examine banks, will also exercise the
power to deliver complete statements
of accounts into the hands of assess
ing bodies. 1t may be wrong, but not
necessarily so. But we are looking
forward to better banking laws. In
time we may have laws wisely govern
ing all classes of banks, notional,
state, and private, as we'll as trust
companies-and even safety deposit
vaults. But in the meantime we should
minimize chances for fraud. We
should attempt to place our taxing
system on more equitable basis. In
our upward and onward march we
meet many stumbling blocks, but none
more pronounced than the -vexin g
| question of taxation. We are dealing
with subject that has caused the sys-
TEN of society to bleed for five thou
sand years at least. It appealed to
biblical heroes as the mostpronounced
cause of fraud.
We must make all men pay equally
towards government support; we must
disentangle the confusion of classif-
cation; we must place assessors be.
yond the realm of incentive for fraud
we must aim at fairness and equality,
and we must force men to return hon
est schedules to assessing bodies.
With that task ahead of us let US not
forget that the good of things is not
in talking and theorizing, but in DOING.
Therefore, let US follow the sage ad-
vice that is crystalized in those two
energy-imbued words, get busy.
We are sorry that we are unable to
give all of this excellent article, it is
worth the time and attention of all
and the ideas which are far in advance
of those exercised by the ordinary
commissioner shows that Mr.. Eckstein
is making a thorough study of the
problems of his office and is a value
able man for the county to have at the
head of its board of commissioners.

A number of things have conspired
to interfere with the work in the Re-
view Office for the past two weeks, so
that the paper has not been as read
able as it should have been. but there
is some satisfaction IN observing that
neither of the other papers we're much
better during that time, which, while
it is no excuse for the Review indicates
that there is difficulty in the other
offices as we'll.

SAT the Worlds Mercy" is the Of
fering for next Sunday at Turner thea
tire and is one of the oest things of its
kind that is on the road. It does not
make one night stands as rule and
for the entire season will make but
three one night stands and New Ulm
gets one of these. It is drama of a
very high order, and good drama is
something that has not been in this
city for long time. People who like
this class of acting will find in this
something of superior merit and we'll
worth their time and money to see.
There are twenty-one people in the
caste and they are all artists in their
several parts. 1t is large caste for
a drama and is spoken of by all who
have witnessed the play as something
new and excellent.
SAT the Worlds Mercy" which is
holding forth at the Bijou in Minnea-
polls this week, comes to the Turner
theatre next Sunday evening, and pa
irons of that beautiful play house are
promised a production elaborate in
scenic establishment and presented by
a company which is one of the largest
and best now appearing in melodrama
in this country.

Il CITY'S FARM COLONY.
Clevelamd Hopes to Maize Prisoners
and Patients Sef-Supporting.

Cleveland, Dee 15.-CleVeland's farm col
ony of 800 acres on which are being grouped
in separate villages the city Workhouse prison
ers. the infirmary wards and the patients SUI
fering from tubercular disease, represents an in
noVatiOn in municipal affairs that is bound TO
attract attention. The population of this city
farm already numbering into the hundreds. will
ultimately reach two thousand. The present
area will probably be increased to five thousand
acres when all the city's penal, sanitary and
philanthropic institutions shall have been moved
from the busy streets far into the country. The
plan not only represents a philanthropy,
but also an economy, one department or lnstl-
tuition being made to serve another to the end
that the whole is to become self-supporting, if
the hopes entertained for it realized
The site of this city farm is some ten
miles from the central part of Cleveland, near
the little rural town of Warrensville. 1t is six
hundred feet above Lake Erie the highest point
in Cuyahoga County The air is just the thing
for tubercular troubles, and the land produces
just the crops which most needed in the
maintenance of city institutions. while, in addi-
ton to farming occupations for the prisoners,
there are stone quarries of goodly dimensions
A mile of electric railway has been built by
the city from the centre of the farm to an in
terurban road leading into town. The farm is
also provided with its own car. which has the
privilege or running over the various electric
lines of the city. This is equipped with cots
Cor patients unable to ride in the seats, and has
apartment for freight in addition to the pas
Ienger quarters.
Nearly a mile to the west of the field terminal

place the other day, seventy prisoners at work
in the open air. They were living in cottages

crop had been planted, cultivated and dug by
prisoners from the Cleveland WorkhOuse. Across
The read other prisoners were burying large
quantities of potatoes and cabbages for the win

The corn in another field was still in the shock
and there were many acres of it On distant
hill were thirty cows belonging to the city of
Cleveland. Stay until 4:30, and you will see
the prisoners milking remarked of the

is furnishing not only supplies for its own sub
