CROWD PLEDGED
TO PUSH FIGHT
Leaders in Contest to Down Sa
loon Heard at Meeting at
Moline Theatre.

From the size of the crowd and the
earnestness displayed at the local op
ton rally at the Moline theatre last
night it is evident that the fight in
the city against the saloon is to be
pushed vigorously this spring. An
oral pledge to ''see this thing through
was exacted of the audience by George
w. Morrow of Detroit, field secretary
of the Anti-Saloon League of America,
who was one of the speakers.
The liquor forces were raked fore
and aft with fire of oratory by sew
eral speakers. George w. Wood, man
ager of the campaign in this city, told
how he resigned from the directorate
of a local bank to be free to act as he
saw fit in the fight. He presided over
the meeting.
John G. Woolley of Madison, Wis,
former candidate for president on the
prohibition ticket, called for the rally
ing of the Christian forces OF the
city.
F. S. McCabe, superintendent of the
Illinois Anti-Saloon league, urged the
getting out of the women's vote and
Professor a. NJ. Thatcher of Boston
sang several selections, taking the
place of DR.. Howard Russell, who has

USE MUSCLES TO
keep ILLS AWAY
DR.. George Fisher Makes Strik-
ing Statements at Banquet
at Y. M. G.. A.

That 70 per cent OF human ills re-
suit from muscular inactivity was the
striking statement OF DR.. George Fish
er of New York City at the Y. NJ. c. A.
Friday evening when he made the
principal address of his two days Wis
it here. He spoke to 100 men and wo-
men, the latter being nurses invited
to be present and to participate in
the banquet, which was served at
6.45.
The speaker paid particular attention
to the man who, after youth and early
manhood of great physical activity
settles into sedentary habits in middle
life and the perils which he subjects
himself to by SO doing were enumer-
ated.
One of the leading of these perils
Is Bright's disease which comes from
under-exercising and over-eating. This
disease is growing more and more
prevalent and it is practically incur
able when once 1t gets well establish
ed
Twenty-Five percent die from res
piratory troubles because of belonging
to a society for sitting still. Physical
expression of some sort is necessary
TO the highest emotional enjoyment.
Fatigue is caused by the presence in
the blood of poisons generated by
overexercise OF the brain and is
fruitful cause of moral delinquency.
1t is dangerous for a city to crowd
out the play life OF its youth. The
Moline Y. NJ. G. A. should make its
mission the supplying of the physical
needs to the men of the city not pro-
vided for elsewhere These were
some of the assertions the doctor
L,ade.

NOME TAILORING COMPANY, Between Sessrstorm and Hassn's and
 ZehnsTs.
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1914-10-07

Mrs. Ole Thorstenson, and the encounter
IS said to have taken place at the corner
OF Main and New Ulm streets. There
were no eye witnesses and little was
known OF the affair until last Saturday,
when the injured man began to show
unmlstakable signs of lockjaw and was
hurried to one of the hospitals at
Mankato. He had worked at his regular
employment for several days after his
encounter with the De Young brothers.
According to statement of the
deceased, at the hospital, just before
his death Monday afternoon, made to
County Attorney Albert Running Of this
county, Mr.. Thorstenson was walking
to the home Of his parents when he was
pitched onto by the De Young brothers
without warning and without cause. He
was terribly kicked about the face and
head and cash was cut clear through
the nose by vicious kick of boot.
The statement made to the county
attorney was in writing, due to the fact
that Thorstenson could not speak, owing
to lockiaw. The dying man said that he
was scarcely acquainted with the De
Young brothers, and could not under
stand why they had attached him, for he
had never given them any provocation
to 90 so.
The De Young brothers were placed
under arrest and arraigned before Justice
Frank Morris, who bound them over to
the grand jury and fixed their bail Ion
at 81 900, which was promptly furnished.
The evidence will be presented to the
grand jury, which will convene at St.
James next Tuesday, October 9Th. The
charge is assault in the second degree y
The De Young brothers are new
corners, having lived in the United States
for only few years, They have lived
near here, on the farm formerly owned by
Clark Penney, for some nine or ten
months. They are said to be Belgians by
birth. -Madelia Times Messenger.

catchy-classy and comic. This piece
had a long run at the Whitney Opera
House in Chicago and was one of the
most successful playing the various
cities the past season.
If the word of the Chicago wives is to
be taken, every wife in this city should
see this play-th story deals with the
adventures Of three gentlemen who
decide to make night of it during the
absence Of their wives who had gone
to the seaside for an outing.
Such conditions as are shown in this
play are happening every day about us,
and if there are any husbands in this
city who believe they can go out with
chorus girls and have the accompanying
good time without the knowledge of their
wives, they should witness the complica-
tions the author has inserted in this
play.
