May Ask Court to Move
 Mcclure from New Saloon


 The action of ?. J. Mcclure in nov ing his saloon from Main and Con gress streets to AT Gregory street is likely to result in many legal com. plieations. He applied for a transfer some time ago but met with a rem onstrance by the Malleable Iron Co. and other manufacturers in the neigh borhood. The county commissioners granted the transfer and thereupon the remonstrants appealed to the su- perior court. Attorneys DeForest & Klein, counsel for McGuire, filed a plea in abatement which was upheld by Judge Burpee.
 FThe remonstrants appeal from this decision to the supreme court. Mean- while Mcclure was in a bad situa- ton. The Main street building was to be torn down and he had to move. If he did not move to some other place immediately his license would he dead. So McGuire moved to Gregory street. It is thought that counsel for the remonstrants~ will at- tempt to have McGuire busted by the court from his new place. For the past 20 years all efforts to locate a saloon in this section of the South End were vain.

Tickled the RuffaIoes.

, How a Yankee railroad man once tried to protect telegraph poles in western Kansas and signa1ly failed is related by pioneer of Pawnee county E Early settlers remember that for miles you could see a white polished belt oh every telegraph pole where buff faloes had polished their shaggy hide when tormented by buffalo gnats. I was told that many poles were broken by the vast army of scratching ami malls. A certain railroad official who lived in Boston, where the shoes were 1hhde, bought all the begging awls on the market and had the section men drive them into the posts until they looked like giant cactuses. The herds Dme and saw. and conquered. They fought for first place at the poles and tickled their mangy hides with the awls which were broken by the joyful bulls that still scratched on the rem nants until the poles fell Needless to say, the remaining awls were with drawn from service at once.

Obituary..

Although not unexpected, the news
of the death of Nick Andring which
occurred at his home Monday at 6
o'clock p. w., proved quite shock to
his many friends The deceased had
been ailing all summer and was con-
fined to his home for the past four
weeks. He was born Oct. 1862 in the
neighboripg town of Belgrade as the
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Mike Audring {,
pioneer settlers of Nicollet County. He
stayed on the farm with the old folks
and learned the details of farming and
worked out as farm hand as was Gus
tomary 10 those days. he was united
10 marriage to Anna Lefontane in 1891.
Shortly thereafter he went to farming
on his own account on the farm of his
Uncle, Ernst Gieseke, and was engaged
in at business for about 6 years and
then came to New Ulm aud went in to
the livery business and ntinued therein
until the time of his death. Nick had
host of friends and no enemies. He
was kind hearted aud ever ready to
help some one in need and may have
been too liberal for his own good. His
was happy, sunny disposition and b e
was apparently always in cheerful
frame of mind. At the time of his death
he was a member of the Knights OF
Columbus, st. Johns Court OF Forsters
and st. Joseph's Society. He is eur

Wirth Estate.
Continued from LIST page. J

Roman Catholic Church, to which he
belonged, was set aside by judg-
ment of the United States circuit court
OF appeals in St. Louis Monday.
The appellate court, supporting the
contention of the monks heirs, held
that when an order once permitted
monk to own property the inheritance
passes to the natural heirs unless he
had arranged otherwise in q will.
Father Wirth had been permitted by
the abbot of the monastery to own the
copyright of his books. When be
died the probate court OF Brown
County ruled that the daughter of q
deceased sister and the son of q
deceased brother Of the monk were
heirs to the estate and appointed
Albert Steinhauser Of New Ulm ad.
ministrator.
The case involved q constitutional
point never previously ruled on
definitely by the American courts,
whether the vow taken by Father Wirth
when he entered the order, surrender
ing all right to his future earnings,
was binding contract in the eyes OF
the law. The heirs contended this rule
ofthe order violated the thirteenth and
fourteenth amendments to the Consti-
tuition. A..
Mondays decision is victory for
the heirs. The court rem landed the
case to the federal district court with
instructions to find in favor of Stein
hauser. The administrator informs
us that another action similar to this
one is pending in the federal courts of
New York and is of the opinion that
this decision will be decisive OF the
other suit and that unless an appeal
is taken to the Supreme Court and a
reversal secured, the heirs will event.
