the great difference between the three

New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1907-02-27

r. J. O'Donnell and wife returned
from their southern trip Saturday
evening.
New Ulm failed to secure the addi-
tional appropriation for its public
building recommended by the treasury
department.
The grand lodge of the A. 0. U. W.
elected NJ. c. Tiff of Long Prairie
grand chief, J. F. Craemer of Crook
ston grand foreman, Peter Nelson of
Red Wing grand sverseer, Charles
Larson of st. Paul grand recorder
and J. F. Mcclure of ST. Paul grand
receiver. Jacob Newsalt, Alex Van
Praag and William Harnish were cho-
sen as trustees.
The election held last evening to
vote on the question of issuing bonds
for the erection of anotaes school
building was a very one-si6ed affair.
Seventy-seven votes were cast and of
these only one was against the propo-
sition. This means that before anoth-
er winter rolls around the First ward
will have been adorned with another
handsome public building The board
contemplates purchasing the Ander-
son lots adjoining the site of the pres

The supreme court has denied both
appeals in the Sperl will case and the
result will be another trial as granted
by Judge Weber of the district court.
One appeal, that of the chief benefci-
airy Of the will, is denied on The ground
that the prepayment is not entitled to
Judgment sustaining the will, notwith-
standing a verdict to the effect that
the execution of the will was procured
by undue influences. The other ap-
peal, that of the contestants, is denied
for the following reason: ssThe setting
aside of a verdict and granting new
trial on the ground that the verdict
is not sustained by the evidence does
notend the discretionof she trial Judge
to set aside second verdict based on
practically the same evidence, and to
grant another new trial for the same
reason, but the fact that one new trial
has been granted on the merits is an
important factor in the determination
of a motion to set aside a second ver-
dict based on the same evidence, and
the discretion should be exercised with
caution. The trial judge did not abuse
his discretion in granting second
new trial in this CASE

DEMURRAGE BILL PASSES HOUSE
Members Talk HarshIy About
Measure and Later Vote For II.

The reciprocal demurrage bill, in
troduced by Representative Nolan,
has passed the house with only a
single vote against it. During the
| final debate some OF the members at
tempted to tear the bill to pieces with
arguments and amendments, but when
the roll was called only one man,
Brady of St. Paul, dared to go on re-
cord as favorlng it's defeat.
The bill, as passed, contains practi-
cally the following provisions:
Railroads must furnish cars to any
applicant without discrimination with
in 46 hours at terminal points and y
hours at other stations. II more than
three cars are ordered, one day adj
ditional is allowed for furnishing
each extra car.
Cars must be- removed for shipment
toward place of destination within "a
hours after notice has been given that
they are loaded. This provision does
notapply to stock or perishable goods,
as the penalty of 81 per day would net
be sufficient penalty for delay of these
shipments.
Cars delivered to a connecting rail-
road must be started forward again
from the connecting point within "a
hours.
Cars must be kept moving forward
toward destination at rate of speed

STOCK KILLED BY STRANGE BEAST
LambertOn Farmers Worried Over
the Nightly Depredations Of
Some Strange Animal.

| Farmers in the neighborhood of
Lamberton are becoming alarmed over
the almost nightly depred cations of
some sort of creature, which has been
killing and carrying off sheep and
other animals.
A. SmithsOn, a prominent farmer,
lost a young colt which was killed in
the barnyard one night last week when
the family was away visiting neigh
bors. The cries of the colt were heard
half mile away, and DR.. Zindel, the
local veterinary, who was returning
from late call in the country, drove
into the door-yard, thinking that some
of the farm animals were fighting
among themselves. He carefully APP
preached the barn-yard, but when he
saw two blazing eyes attached to an
apparently huge and shadowy form he
beat a hasty retreat to his carriage,
jumped in, and flashing his horses to
furious gallop went Off down the road
to arouse the neighborhood.
Those that had heard the cries were
already out, and they with several
other recruits, armed with guns, pitch
forks and clubs, took lanterns and
sailed forth to subdue the marauder.
Upon reaching the Smithson home they
cautiously approached the barnyard,
but the animal was gone, and the car
cass of the colt, partially devoured,
was all that remained. There were
many large tracks around the carcass
which indicated some member of the
cat family. In the morning party was
organized to track the beast, but the
recent thaw had melted most of the
snow and the trail was soon lost
When last seen it was apparently lead
ing toward the Big Cottonwood.
AS to the species of animal there is
much dispute, some claiming that it is
a panther strayed from his wilderness
home, while others think it is a large
lynx, driven down from the north by
the heavy SHOWS. A party is being
organized to beat the woods to see if
it cannot run down the beast.
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1907-02-27

not less than so miles in each "a hours.
Cars must be delivered to con-
slgnee's unloading point within 4e
hours after reaching the railroad
yards.
Shippers must fully load cars,
ready for return to the railroad COM
panies, within 48 hours after receipt
of the empties.
Consignees must fully unload cars
within 4S hours, for ordinary ship
ments, and within ~ hours for btu
minous coal, bulk lime, fruit or vege-
tables, and lumber; and if such un-
loading is not started, the railroads
may either remove the cars, or unload
them at the oonsignee's expense.
Presentation OF the bills OF fading
to the consignee is notice OF delivery.
The railroad and warehouse COM
mission may grant further time when
the facts are established that the rail-
roads cannot meet the demand for cars.
or that shippers or consignees cannot
load Or unload because of physical
conditions.
The demurrage charge in every case,
as to shippers, consignees and rail
roads. is ST per day per car for each
day in excess of the prescribed time.
The money collected by shippers goes,
one-half to the shipper and one-half
to the school district. This provision
is expected to prevent the payment OF
large demurrage charges as rebates to
favored shippers.
The demurrage bill fghl in the
senate will be led by Senator Frank
Clagneof Lamberton, who was speaker
Of the house two years ago. 1t is
understood that Senator Clague will
lead the fight for the passage of the
Nolan bill, which passed the house
last week, and will ask. for several
amendments. The provision in the
Nolan bill which requires that one
half OF the demurrage charges, accru-
ing to any shipper from the railroad
companies failing to comply with the
provisions of the bill, shall be paid
to the school district, does not meet
the approval of Senator Clague.

PREPARING FOR THE SAENGERFEsT
Two thousand Singers to be at La
Crosse in July Next Year.

Two thousand singers on a single.
mammoth stage, with Miss Anna Hic-
kisch, La Crosse girl whose soprano
voice is world-famed, are two of the
features planned for the Northwestern
saengerfest to be held in La Crosse
July %, "a, % and 26, 1908, by the off
GERS and executive committee of the
saengerfest. So gigantic an under
taking is the saengerfest that prepare
ton for more than two years is neces-
sary, and La Crosse will build $780,
600 auditorium to accommodate the
many thousands of delegates and
guests who will besthere. Next Friday
evening the city council will consider
bonding the city for $4,000 to aid the
auditorium project, and it is planned
TO donate city park as site.
Fifteen thousand dollars have al
ready been guaranteed by the business
men of the city to insure the financial
success of the undertaking.
Among the musical features will be
the singing Of Miss Anna Hickisch.
She was born and raised in La Crosse
and was chorus girl in an opera
company. During the illness of Miss
Alice Nelson at Minneapolis a few
years ago Miss Hickisch was called
upon to sing the leading role, and her
success was such that she at once be-
came a star. She has since played
in Europe, Africa and Asia, and is
now playing in johannesburg, South
Africa. Two concerts are planned for
Friday and Saturday evenings of the
saengerfest week, in which 1000 sing
ers are expected to participate Two
matinees will also be given on the af-
ternoons of these days, in which a
children's chorus of | 200 voices will
participate.
Five hundred singers, including So
cieties from Chicago, Madison, Eau
Claire, Milwaukee, ST. Paul, Mime
apolis and New Ulm, already have en-
gagged hotel accommodations for the
festival. Hundreds Of German sing
ing societies located in Illinois, Min
nesota, Wisconsin, Iowa and the Da-
kotas will take part, sending delega-
tons ranging from 10 to 200 singers
each.
Besides Miss Hiekisch, soloists will
be engaged from the east to sing lead
ing parts. A magazine published in
the interests of the saengerfest is to be
established in June, and will be pub
lished for Twelve months to promste
the attendance. The event will be the
biggest in the history of the saenger-
bund and the greatest musical meet
ing ever held in the Northwest.

kFTER TWO YEARS OF REST
commercial Union Holds Revival
Meeting at Schelps Hall.
committee of Three Appointed to
Draft New Constitution.
Action Taken With Regard to Sc.
curing Training School.

AA response to generally adver-
flsed appeal the Commercial Union
vas called together at SchelPs Hail
Monday evening and held the first
meeting of which there is any record
surlng the past two years.
About fifty business men were pres
eat and } aeob Klossner Jr. was in the
chair.
Ihe most important action of the
session was the deferring of the cleo
lion OF new officers and the appoint
naent OF committee, consisting of AL
bert Pfaender, Philip Liesch and Flu
gene Koehler, to draft new constitu-
ton and bylaws. This was done at
the suggestion of Mr.. Lesch who did
not seem to think the old constitution
was up to the requirements of the
awakened spirit of publicenterprise. :"
August Hummel and Eugene Koch
Ter were named as a special committee
TO secure new members, a ma ority of
those present not being members OF the
present organization
DIR. Weiser explained at length the
purpose of Representative Peterson S
bill for girls training school in New
Uim, and suggested the sending of as
large a delegation as possible to St.
Paul to appear, in conjunction with
q delegation from the Woman's clubs,
before the legislative committee at a
special meeting either today or tomor-
row. DR.. Stricken, L. ). Buenger
and f. Ell. Behnke were asked to cam
vass the situation and select the dele
cation. The expenses of the Woman's
Federation delegates are to be paid by
the Ukion.
Edgar Small in brief talk out
lined the possibilities of woolenmil
Ia New Ulm, stating that one could be
secured for S35, 900, but no encourage
ment was offered by anyone present.
DIR. Stricken offered a resolution,
instructing the secretary to open up
ceres pondence with view to having
ing the government make a geological
survey of the territory adjacent to
New Ulm, and the resolution met with
Immediate favor.
JOS. A. Eckstein explained at length
the work that had been undertaken by
the New Ulm Stone Co. in behalf of
legislation compelling railroads to
build connecting tracks where the
roads are not over five hundred feet
apart, and offered resolution pledg-
ing the Union to sign an application
to the Railroad and Warehouse Gem
mission for such connections at New
Ulm as soon as the bill now before the
legislature becomes q law. The reso-
htion was unanimously adopted.
The next meeting of the Union will
be held March 8th.
Beach and Bowers Minstrels will
give performance at the Opera House
aext Sunday evening. For many
years the name of Beach and Bowers
Ministries has been household word
with the entire theatre-going public Of
this country and now needs no special
laudation. Organized in 1882 for the
purpose of supplanting the old and
unsatisfactory presentations of negro
minstrels, it has created and continues
to create all that is new, novel and
unique in the minstrel line. The
performers are all white and number
thirty five.

Kite Gambling in india.

On what a colossal scale gambling
Is practiced in India and how extern
sively the flying of kites is used as a
means of gambling may be inferred
from the fact that recently five Hindoo
merchants of Umritsur, an important
city of the Punjab, committed suicide
In one week because of losses on kites.
Kites are flown that they may fight
and the fighting is done by cutting
each others strings. The string is
sewing thread, the finest and strong
est, smeared with ground glass mixed
with mucifage. Pulled tight and drawn
against another thread also pulled
tight, it cuts like knife. A good
string must be long enough to let the
kite ascend a thousand yards light
enough to let the kite bear it at that
height, and fine enough to cut another
string. Each flyer tries to cut the
string of his opponent by making his
kite pass under the other so that the
strings cross, and then, by sudden
jerk, sending his kite up so that the
string will come into contact with the
other string and cut it.
