FANCIERS OF FINE POULTRY
New UIm Admirers of the Feathery
Fowl Have Their First Annual
Exhibit Next Week.
Show Will be Held in the Boesch
Building Next to Behnke's
Grocery.
Geo. ID. Holden, an Owatonna Ex-
pert, Will Act in the Capa-
city of Judge.

For four days, commencing next
Tuesday, roosters, hens, ducks and
geese will hold sway in the Bosch
building next to Behnke's grocery,
and they won't be fowl that will have
to be ashamed of themselves either.
That they'll crow and cackle in the
Boesch building the same as they
would anywhere else, goes without
saying, but what of that.
It will be their first public appear
ance and with that goes the right to
make all the noise they want to.
The occasion will be the first annual
show of the New Ulm Poultry asso-
citation.
This association was organized only
few weeks ago, but unless all signs
fail the exhibit which they are going
to give the public will be one for
which they will be entitled to all kinds
of credit
Entries are being promised by all
of the local breeders ano in addition
to these there will be exhibits from
many of the surrounding towns and
even from St. Paul and Minneapolis.
In all it is expected that there will
be from two to three hundreds birds.
Geo. D. Holden, a poultry fancler
of Owatonna, will be the judge OF the
show and in him the association has
unquestionably secured as good as
there is in the state. To whomever he
awards prize Or a ribbon that per-
son will have a right to believe that
his fowls will pass muster anywhere.
On the whole the idea Of holding
such show is a good one, and. bar
ring the discordant musical accompa-
niment that goes with it, our people
generally should welcome and encour-
age it,
It means, in the end, better birds on
our tables, better eggs anu more OF
them.

The latter's discussion of appendi-

some figure.
But compared with it the figures re-
lating to the cattle and dairy industry
are startling. Thus the value of the
creamery butter manufactured in the
state is placed at S2l, 554, 431.75. Then
comes dairy butter and milk sold in
the cities with total of SO, T27 900,
cheese worth 1907, 1888 and skinned
milk returned to the farmers estimated
at So, 49,, 4O1. Add to this S31, 046,

for 1000, 600 calves and $40, TAG, 420 for
other cattle and you have a total Of
S9S, 263, 451.13 or more than 95 per
cent of the value of the field products
mentioned above.
This is the first time an official COM
parison has been made of the relative
Importance of these two industries
and the figures, as far as concerns the
COW and the part she is playing in the
development of the state, constitute a
revelation.
| Senator Benjamin f. Tillman had a
chat with John D. Rockefeller the
other day and the South Carolinian's
impressions of the Standard Oil chief
as formed in that brief interview are
given herewith:
'sIn an earlier age Of the world John
D. Rockefeller probably would have
organized his tribesmen into militant
! force and led then to the conquest of
neighboring tribes.
ST take it that Mr.. Rockefeller
never would have been satisfied so
long as there was known tribe which
did not acknowledge his rnle. He
seems to be one of the men who come
into the worlds history every few
centuries who are dominated by lust
of power which must be satisfied at all
costs.
ST don't think Rockefeller cares for
money for it's own sake Or even for the,
luxuries that it makes possible. He
cares for it simply because it repre-
, sents power. He seems to be an in
, tensely self-centred sort of a man, OF
? / the type which cannot understand how
: any one can question his acts. He Is
f probably honest in his failure to
: understand: the men of the Rockefeller
7 type are so self-centred that they can
e not get the point of the other man.

GRAND LODGETOMEETlNMA NKATO
Town Down the River Picked For
Next Years Gathering Of Her.
man Sons.

In the contest held at Saltwater
last week for the honor of entertain
ing the next grand lodge of Herman
Sons, in january, 1908, Mankato, in
competition with two other cities, won
out with eighty-six votes. Mime
apolis received only six and ST. Paul
eight.
The Saltwater meeting was sue
cessful one, as far as numbers is con-
cerned, and it is figured that the Man
kato gathering next year can be made
even more so.
The officers of the grand lodge
throughout the current year will be
the same as in 1907. Fritz Ziegler of
Saltwater will be grand president,
Gustav Borchert ofMinneapolis grand
vice president, Charles Harpke of St.
Paul grand secretary and Frank
Noethen of Minneapolis grand trea-
surer.
The present membership of the order
in Minnesota is $780, an increase of
!
| $40 over the enrolment year ago.
| During 1907 the sum of So, 500 was
paid out for sick benefits and S44, 900
for death losses, but Notwithstanding
this large expenditure of the lodges
money, the reserve fund at present is
the greatest it has ever been S97 900,
with good prospects of this amount
being increased to 100000 within the
next three months.
Steps were taken at the Saltwater
meeting to have the insurance branch
of the order brought within the super
vision of the state department of in
surance and the grand lodge officers
were authorized to amend the articles
of incorporation of the order, if neces
sary, to bring this about.
/ The care of the monument in New
Ulm was left as heretofore in tht
hands of the grand lodge officers ant
the two local societies. An attemp
was made to secure a fixed appropria
ton to be devoted to the care of tn
park, but this failed.

dren and had done little or nothing
for their support in the years when
they most needed it, they FASTENED TO
New Ulm the moment they heard of his
terrible ending and, along with a
brother of the deceased, saw to it that
be was given proper and decent
burial.
Two of these girls, Lima and Mar
garet, live in Sioux City and are hold
ing responsible positions. The third
and youngest, Marie, lives with her
mother at Allen, Nebraska.
They say their father was born in
De Kalb, New York, fifty-six years ago
and was married to Mary Ryan at
LeMars, Iowa, in 1882.
The union was never productive of
happiness and in 1893 Cahoon became
separated from his family for good.
Occasionally he would write to one of
his children, but few years ago,
about the time he came to this neigh
borhood, he seemed to have passed
out ofstheir lives forever.
That his wife always lived in the
hope that he would some day alter his
ways and return to make her life a
happy one is vouched for by the daugh-
ters and by the further fact that she
never sought the hand Of another man
in marriage.

County Attorney Erickson of Spring
field and Attorney Henry N. Somsen
of this city went down to Hanska Fri
day to try a, suit before Justice Eggen-.
sperger in which Albin Carlson sought
to have Edgar Chute placed under
bonds to keep the peace. Carlson en-
deavored to make out at the trial that
Chute had pursued him through
the streets with intent to do
him bodily injury and that in the
chase he, Carlson, had received a
broken arm, but the evidence showed
that Chute meant no harm whatever
but merely tried to throw Carlson in
to a scare. The case against Chute
was therefore dismissed.

The Hague. July 30.-Orders have
been issued that the battleship Jacob

expected that the main object Of send
ing the Jacob Van Heemskerk to

ment wanted. The Ge!derland Is at
