New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1908-01-15

A civil service examination will be
held in ST. Paul on January 9th of
persons, either male or female, desir-
ing to enter the government service as
stenographers and typewrfters.
County Auditor Weaver of Mankato
has under consideration the advisable
lity of his becoming a candidate for
the republican nomination for con-
gress in this district next fall, and
from hints dropped by him and his
friends it is fair to presume that he
will enter the race.
A. G. Won Hagen, the Sleepy Eye
miller, instead of being a candidate
for district delega ate to the republican
national convention as limited by the
Minneapolis Journal, declares empha
tically for Geo. w. Somerville. Som
erville, in turn, says he is not ar
aspirant, but would be pleased to &c

George Benz, sixty-nine years old,
head of the wholesale liquor firm of
George Benz & Sons and one of the
most prominent German citizens of the
state, died at hospital in Chicago
Saturday morning following delicate
surgical operation performed by the
famous DR.. Murphy.
Mr.. Benz had been a resident and
leading business man Of St. Paul for
over fifty years and was particularly
well-known IN New Ulm, not only by
reason of his business relations but
owing as we'll to his active interest in
the Order of Herman Sons and the
North American Turnerbund.
The St. Paul Pioneer Press in speak
ing of his life-work and character pays
him the following handsome tribute:
1.-THE death of George Benz removes
from the life of the city one of it's
most philosophical and loyal citizens.
If there was any public cause to be
promoted George Benz could always
be counted on to do what he could to
forward it. 1t was only necessary to
interest him-which was seldom hard
to do-and he not only opened his
purse but was willing to take time tc
help matters along. AS a business
man he was energetic and successful
but it was the domestic side of his
character for which those who knew
| him we'll most admired him. His hear
was always in his home and with his
family wherever he happened to be
None ofscores of activities and amuse
ments which usually attract the inter
est of men outside of their own bust
ness seemed to get more than yer,
subordinate share of Mr.. Benz's at
tention unless his family could share
in his enjoyment. For his home llf'
was his predominant passion.
''Jn spite of the ruggedness OF hi
exterior and the frequent brusquenes
Of his speech those who were throw
for any length Of time with Mr.. Ben
recognized him as pure gold.

According to the Hanska Herald the
building Improvements in Hanska
village during 1907 amounted to
1926, 1870. Of this amount over Sl3, 900
was expended by the Hanska Milling
company, SIS, 500 in the construction of
the Atlas Concrete Works, 81, 800 in
the Nelson store building and $4,000
in the Gund Brewing company's
saloon.
At one of the tables in a Mankato
dining room the other evening the wri-
ter heard an old gentleman and a
young lacy, both from Chicago, criti-
Ching the tediousness of life in coun-
try town. Then they drifted into
discussion of the local playbill, which
happened to be Ibsen's "Doll's House. y
':A Swede play, believe" said the
old man, and the young woman an
swered sweetly: Eyes, and goodplay
too, although [ understand the lead

! Then came the old man again with the
remark that there was to be another
good Swede play in Mankato soon,

hear no more.

Murderer of Chris. Walter May be
Arrested This Week.
Suspects When Placed in Sweat
Box Tell Tangled Story.
Detectives Handling Case With
Great PrecautiOn but Evident
ly With Success.
Peculiar Character OF Weapon
Used is Proving Valuable
Clue.

Four people, who are supposed to
be in position to throw some light
on the mystery surrounding the murder
of Chris. Walther, were placed on the
carpet in City Attorney Pfaender's
Office Monday afternoon and forced to
undergo racking cross examination
at the hands of the city imported de-
tective.
More we're added to the list yester
day and before the week is over it is
confidently believed that the mystery
will have been unravelled.
The small piece of green sapling,
which served as a club with which to
kill Walther, is now serving as d
valuable club in the hands of the,
authorities. Although they do not
absolutely say SO it is thought they
know from whence the sapling came,
and that unquestionably is knowing a
great deal.
At any rate, one of the chief workers,
in the case dropped a hint yesterday
that with this clue in their possession,
and with the entangling statements
made by some of the occupants of the
sweat-box on Monday things were
shaping towards a head and that in
the game of "blindman's bluff played
thus far the detectives had touched
some very warm spots.
Witnesses examined Monday were
Henry Kanakowitz, Emil Darko, Gus
tav Blautz and Edgar Dingler, the
latter a famous witness for the state
in the early stages of the Koch case.
What they know Or what they told
but perhaps time will tell.
