COMMITTEE REPORT
ON PACKING HOUSE
FARIBAULT VISITORS ENTHUSE
ABOUT PROPOSITION FOR
PLANT HERE
AT FARIBAULT WILL
BE ASKED TO ADDRESS NEW
ULM CLUB.

OF all the matters discussed at the
monthly meeting of the Commercial
Club Monday evening, the report of
the committee on the packing plant
proved most interesting. G. w. Cum
bingham and J. A. Ochs of the committee
and Pres. G. A. Ottomeyer, Charles
Vogtel and F. H. Krook had been at
Faribault Friday and absorbed all
kinds of information and enthusiasm
during their stay of several hours in
that city. Mr.. Cunningham on behalf
of the committee gave an exhaustive
report of their trip and what they had
learned.
Concisely stated, the New Ulm COM
mittee was received with open arms
by the committee which has the packing
plant at Faribault in charge and were
told everything that they desired to
know. The Faribault committee was
well posted and is thoroughly convinced
that the project is a feasible one at Fari-
bault and could see no reason why a
similar venture should not prove Sue
cess at New Ulm.
According to their statements,
plant on small scale does not pay and
nothing smaller than one unit which
will cost at least 100000 in buildings
and equipments should be attempted.
This plant would be large enough to
handle from 200 to ESQ hogs daily and
would give them storage capacity If
1900 hogs. To be able to operate a
plant of this magnitude would requile
an additional $250,000 or $35O,000.
Faribault has already $35O,OOO sub
scsibed and there is nothing to prevent
their going right ahead with the plant.
They will try, however, to raise 100000
in all and recommended the same policy
for New Ulm. Their territory to draw
from will he within radius of 80 miles
and no farther.
The Faribault people claim that they
can save the farmers IS cents hundred
on their hogs, which is made up of
lower freight rates, lesser commissions
and lesser shrinkage during shipment
and are confident that they will have
no trouble in earning the Z per cent
cumulative dividend which the preferred
stock will carry.

SECOND NUMBER IS
A LECTURE RECITAL
)R. JAMES DAVIES WILL SPEAK
ON LIFE AND WORKS OF
BURNS.
SPENT SEVERAL YEARS IN GER
MANY AS STUDENT AND
TEACHER.

Friday evening of this week, Decem-
,er 10th, the second number OF the
iyceum Course will be given at the
High School Auditorium under the
!uspices of the Current News Club of
his city. The attraction will be DR..
: ames Davies, lecturer, and it is expected
hat he will give his Lecture-Recital on
Robert Burns. Dr.. Davies will be
emembered as one of the bright lights
# the last University Week held in New
Jim. At that time he spoke on the
elation of music and literature and also
ave Kipling lecture that was highly
njoyed.
It may be we'll to give short history
# DR.. Davies life so that those who go
hear him will find their interest
leepened by knowing thru what ex-
,eriences he has arrived at the point Of
lew from which he speaks. Born in
England, of Welsh parentage, he was
owever educated largely in America,
eceiving his preparatory training in
Wesleyan Academy and taking his
FASTER of Arts Degree at Boston Uni
ersity. Following his graduation there
e went to London to study in the
british Museum and after brief course
a literature there he went to Leipzig
complete his training. His work
here proved so commendable that after
inishing the course the University Sc
ured his services as lecturer on English
nd American literature. He had but
gently returned to America before his
isit to New Ulm during June OF 1914,
nd his knowledge of the German life
nd temperament endeared him to all
Who came in contact with him.
It is said of him that he is characterized
" traits that we think of as English,
UGH as earnestness and sincerity of
purpose, and at the same time he is filled
With nervous energy, vivacity and in
ense vitality that is wholly American.
lis love for the German people, growing
rom his life among them and his under
landing of their ideals, adds the finishing
ouch to a well-rounded character.
The Robert Burns lecture will be
Illustrated by songs and the lecturer

The price for single admission ticket

we're sold at dollar for four so there

population, has the smallest number of
employees. In that ward apparently
most of the people do their own work.
The first ward has II more employees
than the second and third wards put to-
gether. This proves conclusively that
most of the wealthy people Of New Ulm
live in the first ward.
According to the report of Mr.. Berg
the city harbors 1712 men who are
entitled to vote. They are distributed
as follows: LIST ward, 535; End ward,
500; 3rd ward, 668. From his report it
further appears that there are 1893
families residing in the city. Of these
1919 own their own homes and Ala are
renters. They are distributed as follows:
number of owners, LIST ward, 329; End
ward, 275; 3rd ward, ATS; total, 1919;
number of renters, LIST ward, 1874; End
ward, 16S, 3rd ward, 112; total, Ala.
This is certainly an excellent showing.
There are very few cities in the state
where the number of owners of property
is so far in excess of the renters.
The total expense Of having this census
taken amounted to $3.50, of which the
city paid $50 and the balance of $3.50
was borne by the Commercial Club. The
committee consisting of Eugene A.
Pfefferle, John H. Siegel and Ed. A. Stoll
who had this census matter in hand in
presenting their report to the Commercial
Club recommended that a mailing list
be prepared from the records submitted,
and this recommendation was adopted
at the monthly meeting of the Com
mercial Club.

NOSES IN NEW ULM.

That New Ulm has been growing in
ecent years is evidenced by the report
# Hubert Berg, census enumeration,
which was filed with the Commercial
Club Monday evening. According to
his report the population of New Ulm
6,4O5 as against 5,44S five years ago,
showing a total increase during the past
i've years of 757. This report is abso-
utely correct. There has been no
padding and in cases where there was
Dme doubt the question has always been
decided against the city. The second
ward is the smallest in population,
having 1925 people. There are 2,O3S
the first ward and 2,542 in the third
ward.
It may not be generally known, but it
low has been positively determined that
he women folks are in the majority in
he city, there being 1926 females, as
against 3,11O males. The males are
distributed as follows in the different
Yards: 1st ward, 1909; End ward, 891;
,rd ward, 1910. Females, LIST ward,
1929; End ward, 934; 3rd ward, 1882.
The number of men, women, boys,
iris, dodgers and employees in the
lifferent wards is as follows: 1st ward,
number of men, 410; number of women,
IA; number of boys 519, number Of

Ottomeyer also. spoke of what they
learned while at Faribault. All those
who spoke on the proposition were UNI
animous in their opinion in that pack
ing plant would be a good thing for
New Ulm and that efforts should be
made to secure one, provided an eff
clent and competent management could
be secured. For the present the matter
was disposed of by inviting Messrs.
Brooks, Bloggett and Chase to come
here some time after the holidays
and talk to the members of the club
and farmers some time in the afternoon
IN regard to the packing plant PROPOSE
ton and they were requested to bring
along the plans and specifications for
their plant SO as to be able to make
the proposition clearer to the audience.
In this connection vote of thanks was
rendered Charles Vogtel for the cour-
tesies shown the committee in placing
his car at their disposal.
A communication was read from the
Winona Chamber of Commerce in which
they asked the aid and cooperation
of the New Ulm Commercial Club in
preventing the raising of the basic
rate of fire insurance in Southern Min
nesota which seems to be contemplated.
The club had been assured by letter
sent by the Secretary of the hearty
cooperation of the local club and nothing
further was done in the matter. A

KING BILLIARDS.
SEASONS RECORD
NEW ULM PAGER MAKES
RECORD TO BE PROUD OF
ON MILE TRACKS

ADMIRERS OF KING Billiard, Joseph
Bianchi's handsome chestnut PAGER will
be interested in learning definitely what
work he did while he was away from
home and friends during the season
which has passed. One of his admirers
has compiled for the Review record Of
the races in which King billiard took
part and gives the summary as follows:
Won seven frsts, four seconds and two
thirds out of total of thirteen races.
His total winnings for the year amounted
to $3285.0O.
The horse was entered first at Page,
N. D. on half mile track with seven
contestants and came in third. His
next trial was at Cooperstown, n. D.
where he took first money on half mile
track. There were twelve starters in
this race.
At Valley City, N. D. where he ran
next there were eight starters and King
billiard was awarded first money, the
best time being 2:12 IA Another half
mile track at Crookston gave up first
money with a record of 2:19 IA. At
Grand Forks there were only four
starters but one of them went better
than King billiard for he took second
money. The track was very muddy
but record of 2:14 was made. At
Fargo there was repetition of this
record, four starters, best time 2:14 and
second money for King Dillord.
Then began the work on the mile
tracks at GAINESVILLE, Wis. There were
ten starters and King billiard took the
race in straight heats with record of
200 IL. At Marshfeld on the half mile
track again there were six starters and
the New Ulm horse took the race in time
Of 2:13 IA.
Back home in Minnesota, on the State
Fair track at Hamline with a three
thousand dollar purse to compete for.
A muddy track made time slow, the best
King billiard was credited with being
2:11 IA but it brought him the second
prize. At Milwaukee with another $4,000
purse he again took second from seven
contestants in the same time as at
Hamline.
On mile track at Springfield, Illinois,
where he could let himself out gave him
a mark of 2:08 Sd which was his best
official time for the season. In this race
with fourteen starters he drew eighth
position and won third. There was a
purse of $1,000 at this race, which was
awarded by the point system.
At Redwood Falls, MINI. he took the
Free for-All and the 2:12 pace where the
$500 purse was hung up, thus ending his
seasons work in good shape and ready
for the petting and rest that was waiting
for him at home.

'Now-go down that stairway
ahead of me-" ordered Del Mar.
Elaine obeyed tensely, and he fol-
lowed into his emergency exit, clos
ing the trap.
Beat harder, men," urged the her.
nit, as the soldiers battered at the
door.
They redoubled their efforts and the
door bent and swayed.
At last it fell in under the sheer
weight of the blows.

Elaine" cried the hermit, looking at
the empty Office.
Pound the floor and walls with
the butts of your guns" ordered Ar
mold. There must be some place
that is hollow"
Meanwhile, through the passage,
along a rocky stairway, Del Mar con-
tinued to drive Elaine before him, up
and ever up to the level Of the
land.
At last Elaine, followed by Del
Mar, emerged from the rocky pas
sage in a cleft in the cliffs, far above
the promontory.
Go on" he ordered. forcing her to
go ahead of him.
They came finally to small hut
on a cliff overlooking the real har-
Dor.
Enter" commanded Del Mar.
Still meekly, she obeyed.
Del Mar seized her. and before she
knew it he had her bound and
gagged
Down in the little office our men
continued to search for the secret
exit.
Here's a place that gives an
echo,' shouted one Of them.

threw It open. the Eerrait stripped

jumped In, followed by Woodward,
myself and the soldiers.
Upward we climbed until at last we
came 10 the opening. There we paused
and looked about. Where was Del
Mar? Where was Elaine We could
see no trace OF them.
Finally however, Arnold discovered
the trail in the grass and we fol
lowed him slowly picking up the
tracks.
Knowing that the submarine would
cruise about and wait for him, Del
Mar decided to leave Elaine in the
nut while he went out and searched
for boat in which to look for the sub
marine.
Coming out of the hut. he gazed
about and moved off cautiously.
Stealthily he went down to the shore
and there looked up and down in
