FIRE LOSS ADJUSTED
Chance Given Those Who Wish to
Donate Toward Hospital Repairs.
From Thursdays Daily.


The representatives of the Evangelical
Lutheran Hospital association and the
Minnesota Mutual Fire Insurance com
pany of New Ulm, late yesterday after
noon, reached an agreement as to the
loss to be paid. 1t is understood that
the loss was adjusted at sum approx
mating $4,000. This is good deal less
than the actual loss.
The work of making repairs was be.
gun today, and will be done by the day
Contractor A. W. Schwebbe of St. James
and Paul Kunkel of Rapidan will have
charge of this work. An effort will be
made to have the repairs completed as
early a date as possible.
Last evening nearly thirty friends OF
the hospital, representing all of the
wards in the city, gathered at the office
of Architect Schippel and talked over the
situation as it faces the hospital associ.
alton. 1t was the general opinion that a
chance should be given for those VINO
wish to make donations to do so, to
make up the difference between the
amount of insurance paid and the actual
loss. There will be shortage of at least
81 200 on the building, and no insurance
was carried on the contents of the
building, and the loss on these were
$1,000, and the association is in no shape
to stand this, having incurred heavy
debt in order to put the building up.
One of the original subscribers dou-
bIed his subscription on the morning
after the fire, and it is thought that
others will raise their subscriptions and
that new ones will come in. The sub.
scriptions will apply upon treatment in
the hospital at the rate of 81 week
should any of the subscribers enter the
hospital at any time.
The banks agreed to receive subscrip,
tions for the hospital, and subscribers
can leave their deposits at any bank
The money is needed now. 1t was pro.
posed to have soliciting committees 60
out, but it was finally decided to al
low the citizens to come forward vol
unfairly with their subscriptions.

MILK SHOWS UP BAD
That Supplied to Rochester Folks Il
Full Of Bugs.

Rochester, Jan. 2l.-A public meeting
was held at the Universalist church to
discuss Rochester's milk supply. Lam
tern slides were shown, which displayed
the bacteria found in the milk which is
sold throughout the city. A compari-
son was made between water taken
from the Zumbro river near the sewer
pipe, and it was found that the milk
which the people here are using contains
an average of three times as many bac-
terra to the cubic centimeter as the river
water.

suggests the absence from the body
polite which will be characteristic
of the president for a short while. This
time he does not affect the wild and
woolly mountain region where once he
was rancher and the baddest kind of
deputy United States marshal-that
is, for rustlers and "sich." Be it re-
rnembered that His Excellency is of
southern extraction on one side, and a
thing like that is well to remember in
seasons of unusual political interest.
So, the silly period oveJ with the
roar of the oyster Bay roar oyster still
in his ear, the nations pride HES him
first to Memphis, to teach the catfish
whole lot that Izaak Walton forgot,
and then to the Spanish moss-laden
cypress swamps of Louisiana for real
sport. Let us hope and trust that he
may have enough of it to be expressed
in the higher mathematical term,
''oodles." In the damp, dank and dark
recesses of the Pontchartrain littoral
he can find everything to his taste. AS
he wades through the rich swamps of
Chalmette there perhaps he may see
the footprints of his illustrious proto-
type, A. jackson, and find himself much
in the same plight as the hero ION that
great and glorious day" BY the way,
as Chalmette, the scene of the battle
of New Orleans, is much affected by
families of tourists, often with chill
dren, there would be chance for Mr..
R. to get shot at lost Teddy bear.
But the real fun will come when the
outfit hikes back to Plaquemine, or
wherever 1t is to be. There nature is
to be caught with the goods. The
fierce wild deer come up to the planta-
tion gates for hoecake just as did the
other deer that the president tells
about, and killed, in similar act
There are cats of the Thomas, pussy
and pole varieties to be encountered
with traps; and then, think of the alli-
gators! To be sure, there are not many
left, but the principle is the same; be-
sides, it is now a close season in Louis
lana for alligators under six inches.
But, then, there are pigs and sheep
here and there, and frogs. and real
dead game sport need not perish for
want of meat. In the meantime the
nation will worry while our Little
Rough Riderhood is in the forest liable
to be attacked by wicked Teddy bear!

Exercising in Bed" is the novel title
of new book on physical develop
ment, recently published by the Ed
ward Hilton company, San Francisco.
The author, Sanford Bennett, is one of
the athletic "remarkables' of the pres
ent time. He is 67 years old, and
though, as he explains in the opening
chapter, he did not begin the working
out of his physical salvation until he
had reached the age of fifty at which
time he was very much of an old man,
he has effected in these seventeen
years is complete rejuvenation. 1t is
curious to note that his measurements
are identical with those of the pugilist,
Jimmy Britt.
Another curious thing to be noted,
about the system, is the fact that 1T is
in reality lazy mans one. Every
where, throughout the book, it is inn
pressed upon the reader that these
exercises are all performed in bed, un-
der cover of the bed clothes"
The book is tastefully bound in cloth
and contains fifty-six inserts illustrat-
ing all the exercises posed by the au-
thor within the last year.

THoBURN's VISION

n IsHOP JAMES M. THoBURN of
X the Methodist Episcopal church.
- speaking to a missionary gather
ing in Portland, Oregon, Thursday on
the subject of Asiatic immigration,
said: Items of thousands will come to
us. We may as we'll try to sweep
back the tides of the ocean as to keep
them out" Making due allowance for
the remarkable enthusiasm that has
dominated this mans life among the
Chinese, Japanese and Hindus there
yet remains great truth in part of his
statement. He has been in these coun-
tries as a missionary bishop for many
years and recognizes what he calls the
worldwide movement of the nations
in the threatened oriental immigration.
From Bishop Thoburn's viewpoint such
| immigration is sure to come as the
direct will of God in the matter and
| therefore no act or movement on the
part of occidental peoples can stay
| them finally. This of course is the
viewpoint of all religious bodies, and
good men respect it as such, but there
| is an element in the human heart as
old as the race, called self preservation,
and all history tells of it's successful
application under circumstances sim
liar to those now enveloping this ques-
ton, and the truth remains that the
native peoples of all civilized countries
have ever denied all but a limited and
carefully guarded citizenship to aliens,
and then only under circumstances
such as cannot in these days be du-
plicated.
1t is not possible to get men to be-
lieve in the providence of God that
would ruin the people of America to
benefit the people of Asia, and if we
eliminate the divine from the propo-
sition common sense teaches that alien
peoples cannot mix and maintain a
stable government
The struggle for life and happiness
is keen and continuous in this land
for all who are here and the millions
yet to come from Caucasian countries,
and to invite certain ruin by taking
in the alien hordes contained in eastern
countries Is IlOTe IlldH any IeiiSlOuS
belief can bring sensible men to do.
Millions of Asiatics will come here
if the American people permit them
to-, and that millions are looking to
come now is true, as the good bishop
says; but that we cannot keep them
back and cannot refuse them admit
tance is wholly a Thoburnesque view
of the matter. and will not AFFECT the
stern determination of all creeds and
classes to bar the oriental out that the
occidental may live. What goes with a
hurrah in missionary meeting would
be difficult to recognize after it had
come out of a workingmen's meeting,
and all that is in human nature and
human law compel the people of Amer
lea to defend their heritage from tres
pass or entry in any form calculated
to imperil it by the alien hordes of
Asia.
The Methodist Episcopal church is
very strong in numbers and militant
for great good on the Pacific slope.
Los Angeles herald., 1907-09-28

but 1t is certain that IL it's member
ship of business men were polled
Bishop Thoburn could not get a cor
poraPs guard to vote for unrestricted
oriental immigration, and but few to
vote for immigration even with partial
restriction. The American people may
not sweep back the tides of ocean, tits
true, but they may and will sweep
back the tides Of coolie immigration,
Bishop Thoburn and his visions to the
contrary Notwithstanding.
