A RattIesnaks Trap.

settlers Of New Jersey had to contend

was generally fatal. In "Stories From
American History +. R. Stockton
cites an incident which gives an idea
Of the abundance Of the rattlers In
the new colony:
In a quarry from which the work
men We're engaged in getting out stone
for the foundations of Princeton col
lege a wide crack in the rocks was dis
covered which led downward to a
large cavity, and in this cave were
found about twenty 1shels of rattle.
snake bones.
There was no reason to believe that
this was snake cemetery, to which
the creatures retired when they sup
posed they We're approaching the end
of their days, but it was without doubt
a great rattlesnake trap.
The narrow, winding passage lead

nap. Although the cave at the bot

enough to get into. it was so ar
ranged that it was difficult If not i'm
! possible for a snake to get out, es
pecially in the spring, when snakes are
| very thin and weak. having been nour
ished all winter by their own fat.
| Thus year after year the rattlesnakes
must have gone down into that cavity
without knowing that they could never
get out again.

There are some cheaper ways

To find where trouble strays-
If in a family racket
He tries to smooth things DER
He'll get enough. I'm thinking,
To stock a good sized store.
Or he might slyly venture
To kick a neighbours cat

See trouble come to bat.
He might when some one warhleS

He need not run a circus,

To price a lady's coat.

And fiutter in the cir.
He need not lift a finger
There's trouble everywhere.

that frequent eating is not necessarily
fatal, that she ate throughout her life

But when he pays the breaches
And starts to buy the hash

had endowed him with, he marshalled
to the end and then he sank rapidly
and passed away.
He, no doubt realized for some time
that he was waging q losing battle and
although he never mentioned til any
one as far as I can find out, I have
always felt that nothing would have
suited him better than to answer
Deaths summons with his boots on
while reviewing some of the military
forces of the State, or while in CHARGE
OF parade having a military sig
nlncance. Such an ending it seems to
me would have been the most fitting
for one whose whole soul had been for
over forty years wrapped up In
matters military.
The shock to US, should his demise
nave been SO sudden one would have
naturally been greater than we ex-
perlenced Friday morning but I am
satisfied that we would all have been
wiling to undergo this additional
hardship for one whom we had learned
to love, honor and revere if his
wishes and desires had thereby been
gratifed.
The news of his demise spread
rapidly, and it was but short time
thereafter that the national flag dis
played at half-mast on our public and
business houses proclaimed to the
world that the citizens of New Ulm
were mourning the death of their chief
executive.
And this mourning and grief is not
confined to any one small portion or
faction OF our community. It is pre-
valent ever ywhere and not feigned,
but genuine. And that is as it should
be, because the deceased through his
sterling qualities, his generosity and
kindly spirit, won not only the esteem
but also the friendship and love Of all
who came in contact with him.
And We are not unmindful of the
fact at this sad hour that the de-
lceased's life was not I'll sunshine, that
his path through life il earlier years
of his career to attain the success and
prominence which he achieved and the
accomplishments which he secured was

background. The First field artillery
also sent floral piece emblematic Of
that branch of the military. Company
A and Hecker Post of this city also
contributed appropriate floral designs.
One Flag At Half-Mast.
The state capital displayed three
flags on Monday, two at full height
and the other at half staff. The rea-
son for this is that the legal celebra-
ton of Independence Day was observ-
ed July 5, while the funeral of the late
General Joseph Bobleter of New Ulm
also occurred on Monday. In honor
of General Bobleter who has been
head of the national guard for several
years, and was formerly state treasu-
rer, the flag at the west end of the
capital, over the governors Office,
known as the executive aag," hung
at half staff. The other two fOated
in celebration of the country's 1880
birthday.
Mr.. Steinhauser's Address.
Friends and Bereaved
Friday morning at about seven
thirty our now departed friend General
Bobleter folded his tired arms,
answered Deaths summons and went
to the great Beyond.
The struggle has been lonng ad
protracted one, a struggle between a
courageous man on one side, and q
foe on the other who is relentless and
who always is victorious in the end.
It was gallant fight if we may so
call it, worthy of the deceased's
proves as a soldier and military
man, and we could not but help admire
the indomitable spirit which he dis
played at all times. Others, no doubt,
with less will power, would have adj
mitted the foes superiority long be-.
fore and spent weeks and weeks in bed
waiting for the end. Not so our
friend. All the vitality that Nature

Should Test Cows.

Some time ago we called at
tention to the fact that an effort
was to be made to have the COWS
in the city tested for tuberculosis
but as yet nothing has been done

Gil asking that the test be made.
but it was neglected In some
manner and consequently the
matter did not come up There
are large number of people
interested in this test and among
them are many owners OF cattle,
Wherever the tests have been
made many COWS have been con-
demned and killed by order of
the state. tits a matter for the
health department to take up
and request should be made to
the state department to send an
officer here tor the purpose of
making the test and giving a
public demonstration.
