New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1911-09-06

This procession will be unlike any
thing ever seen in America. It is an
entirely new form OF entertainment
With the advantage of many years
extensive travel in all the countries OF
the earth, and fortunes at its
command, the management brings
forth q free spectacle that has re-
quired four years of constant work to
build. 1t is q veritable worlds fair
on wheels, costing 100000. The
wonders and the people of every
civilized nation and manv savage
lands contribute to its variety OF at
fractions.
It is only natural to expect this
show, above all others, to have q great
parade, yet all who see it are pleased
far beyond their fondest hopes. Its
wealth and its splendor are the direct
result of years of travel through FIVE
continents, where it is as we'll known
as in its native land. It has required
four years to research in all the
foreign lands, civil and savage, to
bring together the strange types Of the
human race, rich and unusual vehicles
of barbarian manufacture, floats OF
European and Asiatic design and
workmanship, massive floats of Italian
statuary and costly tapestry, drapings
and costumes of Oriental weaving.
For two years artists, artisans and
mech nics have worked night and day
in the Liverpool workshops OF the
show, building the equipment for this
mighty parade.
The result of all those years OF toll
cannot be told in words. The former
brilliant parades OF this big show but
merely suggest the splendor OF this
seasons free street spectacle. And 1t
is three miles long. In keeping with
the parade is the entirely new program
under the main tent. The talent has
been selected from many countries.
It is abundant in novelty, displaying
not one thing to recall the past. OF
thrillers there are at least dozen, all
sure-6re sensations of the first degree.
1t requires company of $50 per-
formers to give the many acts. There
are Fifty clowns to provide the sauce
of comedy.
The two performances to be given
here will be exactly the same as those
presented in all the large cities. Not
one detail has been changed since the
spring opening. Those who wish to
avoid the rush on the show grounds
may buy reserved seats and ad'

ton of the power of the elements,
and stand aghast at the greatness of
the heavens Few people ever see such
display of elementary lightning as
this one to which allusion is herein
made. 1t far outclassed toe and nail

human imagination ever drew for it

this storm essayed. It was a record
spectacular, where the actors were
the great big bears the clouds made,
the hons that came along as com
pan1ons UP there, and besides, there
were large elephants that roared
tigers that clawed, and earthquakes,
apparently, that shook houses, and
the cracking wind that sizzled
through the trees and about houses
with warning Lookout, down there,
I'm a-comin!' And there is no man,
no pen; no voice., no spirit, no any
thing that can tell the real power of
the storm. It can't be told about
All one has to do is to realize that it
was, then sit and wonder how it all
could be and we still be able to tell
about 1t. 1t excites our fullest re-
spect, and invites our largest admira-
ton. And there isn't any way to
dodge it. either We have to take
just what comes with it and let it go
at that thankful that we can look
back at it with feeling of awe and
wonderment and feel so bewildered at
the thought of it that we can only
wish that they do not come around
SO often when we haven't got cyclone
pits to fall into.
The storm in Palisade was of little
consequence, SO far as damage was
concerned. A few trees were blown
down many branches, and a few
shingles from roofs. Over in the park
there was quite panic, as the lights
were all put out in twinkling, and
the thousands gathered there were
narrowed at the thoughts of the
darkness and blinded by the flashes
of lightning. The flying machine
dashed at its moorings, but was shield
ed considerably by the trees about
It, so was not damaged.
10 the South of Palisade there
was considerable damage. Several
unfinished houses were blown down
at Union Hill, and many trees all
along the Palisades section. The
wind was reported at seventy miles
an hour on land, and eighty miles
on New York bay. The thunder
storms lasted over sixty hours, an
other violent one, without much
wind, taking lace Sunday night
when the lightning cut high links
all night and played many pranks.
Then there was another on Monday
night.

CHIMNEY STRUCK.
During the Thunder Storm of June
10 Lightning Hits House in
West Palisade.

During the height of the violent
storm of Saturday night, June 10, the
chimney of Prof. Breiby, of West
Palisade, was struck by lightning and
about one-third of it destroyed. The
members of the family were in the
sitting room when the crash came,
and were badly shaken up by the
shock of the loud report Their first
impulse was that the entire north
side Of the houes had been blown
out. The noise from the falling bricks
coming down the chimney and fall
ing. also, on the roof, was appalling
in its suddenness. The damage was
probably fifty dollars, and no one was
hurt, though Miss Breiby was reclin-
ing in a sofa near the big open fire
place when the chimney was shattered
by the bolt

SAYS THE CAME LAW
 ISNOT ENFORCED
H. C. Billups Takes Rap" at State Game and Fish
 Commission

To the Editor of The Age-Iferald.
 If you will kindly permit me small space in your valuable columns. ] will .ako d rap at our state game and fish commission. It has been my pleasure and business recently to visit different portions of the state, and from the observations our game laws are being flagranty vio- lated in nearly every section. At different stops and cross country trips that l made shooting could be heard in almost every direction. and it being something out of the ordinary, l inquired of different far mers and in each instance was informed that it was bird hunters. Delighting in such sport myself and accidentally hap pening up near some men with their guns and birds I naturally inquired of what
 luck they had had, and was informed that it was pretty good. Also upon further inquiry if they were not rather early and were not afraid of being arrested, was advised that Mr. Blank was a deputy sheriff and constable (ex-officio game Warden) and was the foremost hunter in their part of the country. Inquirins further into the methods of enforcing the game laws was told that when they were ready to hunt and if the birds were large enough, they didn't have to ask Mir Wal | lace what they should do.
 Ire above conditions are not restrcte1 to any one settlement, or community, but l am satisfied that any other travelling | man in the city can vouch for the truth | fitness of my assertion; that the game | law is 8 farce We are dhe sportsmen l rl.- paying MT. John II. Wallace, Jr, S25o0 per annum salary to have the game laws | enforced, and instead of enforcing the | same he is spending quite Q bit of his | time telling Georgia and other states how | they should do; when 1t is his paid and sworn duty to do something in Alabama. It is probably not generally known that the said Mir. Wallace has to pay his own travelling expense out of the above amount, which no doubt accounts for the laxity Of the present laws Now, by way Of suggestion, or remedy, will say that if MT. Wallace will appoint game wardens whc are genuine good sportsmen, good citizens, and men who appreciate their oath, instead Of the average deputy sher- if, or cross road constable, men who care nothing for the game of the state one way or another I'm sure there will be fewer game birds killed ere the season opens. l pay for license to hunt and have to wait until November 1; therefore under the present conditions find what few quail there are left are badly gun shy and hard to approach. Now, AIr. Wallace, show your constituents what you can do ere going to other states to tell what you have done. Yours very truly,

Then the defendant drew his own weapon and shot twice, when zaner dropped his weapon to the floor. The defendant also said he had been warned by two men of theratS and by Zaner against his life. Mir. Wharton for the defendant eXcoriated Mayor Wikle most severely for sending a man of Zaner's reputation to spy at Chatman's stable and interfering with his business, he said was the one affirmative act of Mayor Wickles administration. He de- clared that Zaner's blood was on the mayors hands. as the city had issued a lcen9e to Chatham to do business, and .hen sent Zaner without a warrant or proper authority to commit an illegal act.
