That special term of court was called
for the purpose of the preliminaries
to the trial of what became known as
the New Ulm murder cases.
The Famous New Ulm Case"
Judge Austin, who afterwards be-
came governor of Minnesota, found
the public sentiment too much prejud-
iced in New Ulm for the presenta-
ton of the cases to the grand jury,
and taking advantage of what was
then section A of the statutes, ap-
proved March 9th, 1867, ordered the
court to be removed from New Ulm,
Brown county, to Redwood Falls, Red
wood county.
The statute referred to provided
that whenever the judge of any dis
trict court should consider it in fur
therance of justice he could order that
the place for holding such court be
changed from the county in which it
should be held to one of the other
counties embraced in the title of the
court. Judge Austin, consequently,
directed Redwood Falls as the place
for the special term, Redwood County
then being attached to Brown for judi
cial purposes.
The eminent counsel employed in
the case were Attorney Caldwell,
Samuel r. McPhail and S. A. Beull, for
the prosecution, and Judge Charles E.
Flandrau of st. Paul, c. T. Clothier,
Francis Baasen and John M. Dorman,
all of New Ulm, for the defense. At
the first trial the citizens of New Ulm
rallied in such numbers to the support
of the prisoners that court house
square was covered with their tents
as they encamped during the term of
court. They were present again at
the adjourned term, but in smaller
number.
The case is one which is often cited
to the law student in his study of
criminal law. Gut was indicted for
the murder of Charles Campbell. The
killing occurred in New Ulm on Dec.
25th, 1866, at time when the feeling
in the Minnesota valley, and particu-
larly in New Ulm, ran high against
all Indians and half-breeds, following
the massacres of four years previous.

ssWOMEN BEST PASSENGERS"
So Says Aviator Tony Janus Who
Has Taken Many on Air
Trips

"'Now I know why the little birds
sing That is the customary expires
sion of women passengers after a
flight in an air machine" said Tony
Janus, aviator, who is in Duluth CIV
ing exhibitions of flying in w. D.
Jones flying boat, "The Lark of Du-.
luth."
Mr.. Janus was telling the society
editor about flying and he was polite
enough to say that women really make
the best passengers in flying machines
he meant it or not.
"After woman makes up her mind
she wants to try it, she doesn't back
out, and she usually enjoys it, he said.
81 have taken more than thousand
women up in flying machines and fly
ing boats, and most of them close their
eyes for the first few minutes, clasp
their hands and catch their breath,
then relax and like it.
81 have also taken many men who
looked pretty much as though they
wished they hadn't started out, and a
couple of them annoyed me so that /
pretty nearly scared them to death
before we landed again.
can aviator's work has to be good
deal of it missionary work, if we want
the flying machines to be popularized
and used. A few years ago, when the
automobiles were first out, you had
to just about drag the people into
them, and then after the first ride, you
just about had to drag them out of
the machines again. We have to give
people taste Of flying if we want
them to like it, and I have never taken
passenger who has not been ready
for second flight"
Mr.. Janus has taken a number of
Duluthians on his flights over the har-
Dor and up the river, and three women
have been given the experience.
Of girls or women as operators of
air machines Mr.. Janus was silent.

ESSAY ON NIAGARA FALLS

Niagara Falls is a huge volume of
noise entirely surrounded by brides and
grooms. 1t is also surrounded by a
bristling Gordon of hotels which sub
sist on honeymoon expenses and never
close their doors so long as there is a
newly welded couple in sight
Niagara falls consists of a wide riv-
er with break in it like spitball or
a T-Joint. This break is so high that
people who have tried to slide down
it with the intention of later going on
the vaudeville stage have not only suf-
fered disappointment but numerous
compound fractures. Hundreds of
daring persons have looped them
selves into the pungent interior of
kerosene barrel and jumped off the
falls head first, under a contract to
show in Buffalo the following evening,
only to be caved in on all four sides
and hauled into a rowboat with hope
blasted and ribs bent. One of the
most popular methods of committing
suicide is to swim across the river
above the falls. Four times out of
five this is an unqualified success, and
the fifth time there is nothing left but
shredded bathing suit and an inter
rogation point.
There is so much noise around and
adjacent to Niagara falls that engaged
people have to make love on their fin
gers. Nature has followed out the
back of the falls so that tourists can
be let down the back way in rubber
coats and ear trumpets and catch the
Canadian pneumonia. Every year
thousands of pairs of new, practically
unused wedding shoes are ruined for
time and eternity In this manner.

it an appropriation of 100000
Although the present building was
erected only recently it barely ac-

outgrowu the size Of the postofiae,

The present building is much too

become more crowded every year. and
