LOCAL SCHOOLS CLOSED
New UIm's PedaSoSues Attended
Convention at St. Paul.

Our local schools were closed last
week on Thursday and Friday as all
the teachers with the exception Of the
Misses Schllling and Schaefer attended
the convention of the Minnesota.
Educational association at st. Paul.
The convention in many ways W. s
the most important in the association.
More than 4 1000 people were enrolled,
making it the largest that has as
sembled. In addition there were
hundreds of visitors in attendance.
The chance to- go to concerts or the
theatre afforded an agreeable change
to the strain and tension Of the first
months of the school year.
The opportunity to listen to
educators Of national reputation gives
them food for thought while they con-
duct recitations and prepare their
lessons. And the youngsters wish
there we're convention treal often''.

encomiums expressed it was very
evident the speakers had had access
to the great heart and deep mind of
this inimitable man. From invisible
quarters there came again the moan
ing strains of string instruments, and
there was once more heard, as in the
far distance male voices in Still Ruht
das Herr and the services we're con-
cluded.
While in the city, many of the
visitors took occasion to repair to
Crown Hill cemetery and visited the
grave of Robert Nix and perchance
pick a aowret, a tWig or a laural leaf
from the abund ance of floral tributes
still heaped upon the grave. IF
memory and fond recollection have
property to soothe the heated brow
and alleviate the pain Of the aching
heart, the grief stricken mother, wife
and children and the Vulnerable
mourning friends will still find this
life not bereft of all sweet ness.

Mrs. G. F. Mowry, a former we'll
known resident of this city and now of
Northfeld, Mimi, is exhibiting her
handpainted china and paintings at

great variety of interesting nature
scenes from all over the county, Mrs.
MoWry is, no doubt, a gifted artist.
Efforts are being made to induce the
lady to make New Ulm her home and
resume the work OF a teacher. Her
former scholars are enthusiastic and
eager to take up their work again.
Mrs. Mowry is the center of an adj
miring crowd daily, her former &C

Last Wednesday evening, company
a." of the I'd Regiment, was inspect
ed by Major John Buschers of the
regiment. He gave the company a
thorough inspection, after which a
civil meeting of the company was
held. During the inspection, there
was present ex-captain Jos. A..
Eckstein of this city and he was in
yited to attend the company meeting
where he gave them short address.
He told the boys how he served as a
private corporal sergeant, lieutenant
and captain of the company He
served afterwards in the regular army
and is certainly we'll posted to give
the boys good little speech on mill
tary matters. He pointed out good
many shortcomings of the men while
undere DING inspection and the inspect
ing officer as we'll as the officers of the
company approved OF his criticisms.
They all appeared to feel that faults
pointed out to them by an indepen-
dent man will certainly bear good
fruit.

Obituary.

On Sunday at four O'Clock occurred
the death of one of our respected
citizens, Mr.. John Koch. For some
time he had been ailing but was still
able to be up and around until two
months ago when he was confined to
his room. Altho his death was antici-
pated it came very suddenly, for short
ly before dying he seemed bright ard
was conversing with his family.
Deceased was born the 18th of Dec
1880 at Muehlhausen, Prussia. In
1847 he came over to America and
settled in Quincy, I'll. He was married
here and remained in that city until
1859 when he came to New Ulm. He
was q cooper by trade and for more
than thirty years was engaged as
head cooper at the former Empire Mill
of this city. After the death of his
wife, which occurred three years ago,
Mr.. Koch made his home with Mr..
and Mrs. Jos. Eckstein, the latter
being his daughter.
Mr. Koch is survived by three
daughters and one son, who are:
Mrs. JOS. Eckstein and Mrs. Herm.
Schapekahm, OF this city; Mrs. Frank
Drew, of Colorado City, Colo. and
Mr.. John g. Koch, of Candy, MINI.
The funeral will take place this after
noon ( Wed.) at 2 O'Clock from the
house, Rev. Mayer officiating. The
pail bearers are all old acquaintances
and men who at one time worked with
him in the cooper shop at the old
Empire Mill. They are: Franz Grebe,
Reinhold Bosch, Ferdinand Hesse,
Jacob Schwendinger, Andreas Loewe,
Franz BOchum.

The Highest Insurance Policy.

The largest insurance policy that
has ever been written in this city was
taken out on the life of Mr.. Chas.
Silverson, President of the Eagle Rol-
Ter Mill Co., in favor of the Eagle
Roller Mill Co., and was for 5000, 900,
placed by Frank M. Joyce of Minnea-
polls, in the following companies;
Equitable Life of Iowa (B. II. De-
tiers, Agent).
Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Co.
of Newark, N. J.
Penn Mutual Life Insurance Co. OF
Philadelphia, Pa.
Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance
Co., of Milwaukee, Wis.
Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance
Co.
Provident Life & Trustee. of Phila-
delphia, Pa.
This sum of 5000, 100000 is to be paid
to the Eagle Roller Mill Co. upon the
death of Mr.. Silverson, or in twenty
years from date.
A great many large corporations
are insuring their president, who con-
trolls great, responsible part in the
running of the business, and in case
of his death it is some times looked
upon as detriment to the corpora
ton, and therefore, to overcome this,
the Eagle Roller Mill Co. has insured
sum, thinking that they can rather
afford to pay tbs premium and get q
substantial sum of money at his death
rather than to lose his services. This
makes the company absolutely impre-
enable financially in case of the death
of Mr.. Si1verson.

Important to Fruit-Growers.

One of our nest efficient nursery
men, Mr.. Martin Penning, offers the
following advice to fruit-growers:
He says
The winter is coming soon and the
ground is very dry. recommend
mulching the apple-trees. Trees that
were kept clean by cultivating or hoe
ing during the summer should be
mulched az once. Strawy manure and
old hay is good, and also short straw
from the straw stack. Do not use
any rich COW manure. We must have
lots Of snow to protect the trees, if we
don't we will have fruit trees killed by
t he thousands.

HONOR MEMORY OF NIX
Many Cities Pay Tribute.
Impressive Services
unicated.)

The memorial services held in In
dianapolis in the Deutsche Haus, on
the evening of Oct 30 in honor of the
lamented Robert Nix, were in every
respect exceedingly impressive and
altogether beftting that mournful
occasion. 1t was tribute such as
cane only come to truly great man.
It was the spontaneous, and therefore
sincere, expression of sorrow and
grief of a distinguished gathering of
cultured people, men and women,
teachers, Colleagues, co'workers,
friends and admirers who had learned
to know, honor and love him.
The spacious auditorium, appropri-
ately decorated, was filled with
mourners of an eminently soulful type.
The surroundings, solemn and somber
in all their appointments, the very
atmosphere pervading the place
seemed pregnant with mingled feelings
of devotion, sorrow and regret, bat
tleing with the sterner senses of forth
tude resignation and those sensibili-
ties which make up strong mentality.
The material as we'll as the spiritu al
environments seemed, therefore, in com
plete harmony and absolute keeping
o. the sad rites there to be performed
Some twenty Turner Societies from
within radius of thousand miles or
more we're represented by delegates
AS the opening act of the service the
standard bearers of the many societies
filed in thru the main entrance and
down the central isle of the amphi-
theatre and reverently lowered their
flags to a large portrate of the depart
ed which was appropriately draped
and placed in the foreground of the
stage. They then took position in
front beneath the stage, extending on
either, side and encircling the auditor
ium where they remained at attention
throughout the services. Across the
middle Of the stage was artistically
banked a screen of plants and palm
grasses. Back of this and entirely
hidden to view of the audience were
snuggly seated the immediate family
members. While the banner carriers
were taking station the intensely
symphonious strains of an unseen or
chestra were heard. 1t seemed like
the melancholy vibrations of aeolian
harps and surprisingly soulstirring.
Likewise, after this number, there
became family audible the most beauti-
full blending of male voices--one could
not tell whence. It was song in
latin text, Integervitac. Then followed
several speakers, first of whom vas DR..
Franklin A. Morrison, president OF
the school board Of indianapolis.
Amongst other things he said: 'In
the demise of Robert Nix, Indianapo-
lis has lost his best educator. 1t
always was relief for me to
meet him. In this age, when men are
money mad and power mad it always
was refreshing contrast to meet a
man who was so modest and who
sought so hard for ii 9 betterment OF
others. If he had one fault it was
that he was too modest"
He was followed by Miss Mathilda
Epmeyer and Mr.. Peter Scherer, both
local teachers. The principal ad.

Theodore Stemphel and Hugo Fischer

A STEP IN ECONOMIC PROGRESS

Fortunately rot everybody has
gone daffy on the rival claims of as
piring gubernatorial candidates or
the prohibition issue In Texas. This
statement Is provoked by the interest
shown by farmers in the Texas hog
train now travelling through east and
southeast Texas. As long as hog
demonstration train, carrying the
best breeds OF animals, a ton or two
OF literature on how to care for and
produce the best of marketable hogs,
can attract more farmers than the
average candidate, who puts In his
waking hours In a frenzy OF prohibit
ton discussion, the country is com
paratively safe and the plan of poll
teal redemption IL made manifest.
Fort Worth should feel a pardon
able pride In this hog demonstration
train, and the territory IL will trav-
erse should and no doubt viii hail II

put on It's way by w. h. King, gener-
al manager OF the Fort Worth Stock
Yards company, and the eompany's

that as the packers need more hogs
and the railroads more tonnage. the
movement is a selfish one. And that.
when said, will be true. But as those
