Of three little girls named Ethel, Maud
and May. One evening his mother was
listening to him say his prayers, and
she was rather surprised to hear him
add to his petitions, Dear Lord, please
send me an Ethel, a Maud and q May"
After he had finished his mother tried
to explain to him that they were too
poor to have a large family like that.
Tommy listened attentively and then
without a word Topped down on his
knees again and offered up this supple,
mentary petition:
Dear Lord, mother says we can't af-
ford an Ethel aud a Maud and n May.

TRIAL OF STANDARD OIL co.


Ffndiay, O.. October 1e.-Much legal
argument and little actual progress
marked the second day of the trial
OF the standard oil Company OF Ohio
for conspiracy against trade The ar
gument was caused by the objection
OF the attorneys for the standard to
the character of evidence sought TO
be placed before the jury by the pros
ecution. In every instance. however.
the ruling OF Judge Banker favored
h prosecution.
The result was that the testimony
Of John d. Rockefeller given in 1888.
in the litigation against the standard
oil Trust before the supreme court OF
the state. was admitted and careful
~ read to the jury by Attorney Phelps
for the prosecution. This consumed
the morning session and part of the
afternoon.
h objections OF the defence to
the character OF evidence brought for
ward were mainly on the ground that
the prosecution was going entirely out
side of the case as set forth in the in
formation filled by County Prosecutor
David.
h answer to these objections was
made by Attorney General Ellis. and
by Attorney Phelps. The defense was
taken care OF by Attorneys Elliott.

New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1906-09-05

Prof. A. Alderman delivered the
address at the education Of the Luth-
eran church in Rockford, on Sunday.
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1906-09-05

Mr.. Mathews was born near James
town, N. Y, Sept. Is, 1859, and came
to this state settling on a farm near
Rochester. At this time as is we'll
known to the people of this part of the
state, the Indians and wild animals
had possession of the country and
there were no schools until later and
when the school in that part Of the
state was opened it was a very crude
and unsatisfactory affair and the term
was very short one, the result being
that the boy Mathews had to get much
of the early knowledge he secured by
studying while he was working in the
field or cutting wood in the forest.
From seventeen years of age he
worked as a farm hand by the month,
chopped wood in the forest through
the coolest winter weather and later
taught school, thus making his way in
the world unaided, pushing forward to
the goal of success with an ambition
that nothing could daunt.
He studied law in the Office of Hon.
r. A. Jones of Rochester, and in 1872
he came to this city, where he was en-
ployed in the high school as teacher.
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1906-09-05

While thus engaged he studied law in
the office of George W. Kuhlmann UNI
til the fall of 1878, at which time he
opened a law Office and began the
practice OF his profession in this city
until 1876, when he went to Marshall,
where he has continued the practice Of
law ever since.
Mr.. Mathew was married in this city
August 81, 1875, to Miss Minnie Boesch,
who was born in this county, daugh-
ter of Werner Boesch. She was edu-
Gated in this city and St. Paul and is
a lady Of refinement and culture.
He has been a lifelong democrat, is
a member of all Of the leading frater-
nal societies. He is responsible in
business life, and in social relations
he is highly honored. He never re-
CARDS lightly the duties of citizenship,
for his friendship is inviolable, home
sacred and family devotion not simply
a duty but the best Inspiration of his
life.
There are some things that make
it appear to Mr.. Mathews that he
stands a chance Of winning out in the
election, and that is the fact that there
is a large demand for the Office OF
Judge togo to the western end Of the
county, and from information he has
in hand he SAYS that he feels he will
be able to get most Of the western
counties solid. He was in the city
Friday and Saturday renewing ac-
quaintance with those of the older
generation who were here thirty years
ago when he as a young man was in
terested in building up law practice.
