however, the government has
thrown the strongest of safeguards.

CUNNINGHAM
ADMITS MAKING
MEASUREMENTS
BY Associated Press.


CLEVELAND, o., March IA
For the second time during the in
quiry into the Cunningham Alaska
coal claims, Clarence Cunningham
was forced by a federal attorney
to admit that he had made incor-
rect statements in the documents
which he signed. He was shown
copy of letter written by him to
the land agent at Juneau, Alaska,
asking for maps of the district in
which the coal claims lay, which
were required before the patents
could be issued. In the letter
Cunningham said that he had seen
the land commissioner for the dis
trict and that everything in con-
nection with the claims were in
order and correct. He admitted,
under cross examination, that this
was not the exact statement of
facts but declared that he had not
intended to mislead the land agent.

The willingness of the company to

to the fact that the stock exchange,

were no further breaks in the

more industries were tied up than

RECORD In HOG MARKET PRICES
The Highest During the Past
Thirty years.

The boycott against meats failed to
check the advance of hog prices. Live
hogs were sold at the South St. Paul
stock yards at the highest figure with
one exception during the last thirty
years and in Chicago reached the
highest point in forty years when the
price jumped to 1910 100 weight.
This was five cents above the record
of 1882 but is considerably below the
record of Sl3 a 100 paid during the
Civil War and of $40 reached in 1870.
The highest record in South ST. Paul
was $500 per 100 lbs. In New Ulm
the price was steady and Stuebe Bros.
paid on Monday, this week, 1925.
The SO. called weather markets. now
prevailing in the egg business. Prices
are very nervous, huctu ating up and
down with strong tendency to a
decline. This is caused by the heavy
shipments from the southern states,
Minneapolis and st. Paul receiving
eggs by the carload from Tennessee.
Eastern cities are also supplied with
heavy shipments from the south.
Stork Bros. are receiving a fair
supply OF eggs and on Monday paid
10 cents. The poultry market is fairly
well supplied with all classes, prices
being 5 to cents higher than last
year at this time.

The Golden Time of Young FIRST + ova
Little did Lizzie dream in her sunny
Indiana home thirty years ago that
she would some day play the principal
part IN Romeo and Juliet romance
IN far off Minnesota. However, little
Dan Cupid plays the part of the joker
once n awhile, thus he brought fair
young lady from the east and caused
young man from the West to meet by
appointment in New Ulm. How he
happened to pick out Lizzie for his
target is rather hard to understand,
Tor surely Andrew had never heard of
her and did not think of her as his
Lizzie when he inserted that advertise
ment in the city papers. The ways of
love are strange, indeed, and on
Thursday morning Lizzie arrived at
one OF the local hotels with a smile
which made one think of spring. in
spite OF the Is below zero. Even while
the congenial landlord carried her
grip to her room she blushingly in
CURED ii a young man had not asked
for her, aud on being informed that he
had not arrived her smile faded some,
but not enough to cast one back to
winter, for, was there not still hope?
Also she left instruction that should
he arrive to send him to the ladies'
parlor on the second floor Immediate
~, where they would not be disturbed
during the process of getting acquain-
ted. At last Andrew came, walked
into the hotel Office, stopped and in
quiringly looked about. Consulting
the register, he took up pen and with
guilty glance around the room regis
tered himself. Then he screwed up his
courage as far as it would go, walked
up to the landlord, cleared his throat,
turned as red as beet and at last out
it came. 'Has there not young lady
arrived inquiring for me?" Receiving
a reply in the affirmative he became
more embarrassed than before and the
blush increased if possible. What a
relief when Charlie obligingly sent
him to the parlor.
"He bushes as her steps he traces,
Her greeting smile his heart elates."
Cupid certainly must have under
stood his business, for in the after
noon the happy pair inquired for the
court-house and no doubt the ever ac-
|commod ating clerk of court steered
them right. In the evening Andrew
took his blushing bride of several and
then some summers to Sleepy Eye,

climax before some justice or preach.

his bride to the coy little cottage big

An Up-to-date Innovation.

New Ulm is to have a "White Way"
such as are now in vogue in many
metropolitan cities and which give
universal satisfaction. Minnesota ST.,
the principal business avenue of our
city, is to be transformed into White
Way by new system of lights, the in
stalling of which is now being agitated
by number of our leading citizens.
The plan as advocated will do away
with the arclights and in their places
eight posts in one block-four on each
side-will be erected with five globes on
each post. It has been suggested to
place the eight posts along the three
principal business blocks on Minnesota
st. and use only six posts in the two
end blocks, five blocks in all. AS stated
each post will have five globes, four of
which are to be in use during the even
ing up to about midnigh and the top
globe during the entire night.
City Engineer Blomqulst was in the
Twin Cities last Friday: ;:Saturday
and closely investigated their system as
we'll as the cost and kind of material
best adapted for our purpose. He also
received other valuable information
pertaining to this subject and he is in a
position to fully delineate all details
before the City Council and business
mems committee when final action will
be taken. The average height of the
posts is about Ii it. and the cost runs
from $50 $50 per post, globe not in
Guided. The money to pay for the
posts and globes will in all probability
be raised by the business men and the
city is to furnish the wiring and the
current. We hope that the project will
receive sufficient encouragement so as
to warrant it's success.

And What Happened When the Missivs
Was Finally Recovered.
The vagaries OF the postal service
are sometimes beyond the understand
ing of the layman. In March Of last
year a man In New York received
letter from a friend in England, writ
ten when on the point of sailing for
Philadelphia, urgently requesting him
tC return loan OF $40. The man who
wrote the letter needed funds and
would the debtor kindly send the
money to him, care Of the steamship
line at Philadelphia? The man in New
York saw that his friend would reach
Philadelphia within a day or two, so
he promptly clapped a ten dollar bill in
an envelope and addressed and mailed
1t. a week later he was apprfSed by
mail that the money had not arrived.
Both men made a diligent search for
the missing letter. But 1t could not be
found. So the debtor gave his friend
a check and forgot about his SO, set
ting down its loss to the dishonesty Of
some intermediary who had handled
the envelope.
Imagine his surprise when one day
eight months later he received his let
ter from the dead letter Office in Wash
ington. 1t was covered with post
marks and much battered, for it had
