is PENMANSHIP BECOMING
LOST ART?

Editors note.
The following clipping was handed to
the Review editor by prominent pro-
fessional man of New Ulm together with
his comment. We believe that it is
subject which should appear on the
.High School Page" to make sure that
the pupils and teachers have chance to
learn the views Of the men who in the
future are going to make use Of the
abilities and talents of the girls and boys
now in the High Schol. The Review
editor can certify that compared with
the handwriting of the men of the present
generation, the efforts of the coming
generation fall far short. The old
school system whatever else it may have
lacked demanded sincere effort to pro-
duce legible penmanship and among
those who were benefited by this effort
may be found several of our present day
business and professional men. There
was time when it was considered sign
of intellectual brilliancy to write a
wretched hand. To-day it is generally
set down to slovenly habit of mind.)
Anthony Yoerg, St. Pauls new COM
missioner of education, had occasion
recently to inspect the handwriting Of
high school pupils of that city, and he
characterized it as simply abominable,"
as rule. Mr.. Yoerg's criticism might
we'll be applied to other high schools, for
it is noteworthy fact that penmanship
has been and is being sadly neglected in
the public schools.
The average pupil, no doubt, con-
siders it waste of time to devote much
energy in that direction, while the
teacher may take an Indifferent attitude
in the matter. Indeed, very few schools
have special instructors in penmanship,
Unless good penmanship is acquired in
the schools, it is difficult for the pupil to
acquire it after graduation.
OF course, not every pupil takes up
business life, but many of. them do,
and plain, neat, legible writing is one of
/
the qualifications demanded. Penman-
ship should not be allowed to become a
lost art, and more time should be devoted
to it's instruction if this is to be prevented.
| -Mankato Review.
"The above article fits our schools
exactly. Many, many years ago, our
schools turned out pupils from the
grades and the high schools, who could
write at least a legible hand. We had
teachers who could teach penmanship.
For some years good handwriting has
been sorely neglected in our schools
to such an extent, that professional
and business men have been complain
ing that our pupils can not write and for
that reason they do not care to have
the young men and women around to
hurt the eyes by the hen-scratches
they now use. The Board of Educa-
|tion of this city might profit by reading
the above article and the comment there
on for the benefit Of our youth who soon
will go out. into the world Of business,
/ trying to make a living.

NEW ULM LOSES TO MT. LAKE
$40

The Mountain Lake Championship
met the New Ulm High School team at
Mountain Lake last Saturday and beat
them by score of 80 to 10. The score,
however, is hardly fair test by which
the game should be judged. It was a
hard struggle from beginning to end
and the New Ulm boys kept their places
like Kaiser Bills army in the trenches
of Belgium.
In the first half Durbahn succeeded
in manipulating his angle worm twist
for three baskets. Lehman closed his
eyes once in the second half and to his
surprise made shot almost from the
middle of the floor. The Mountain
Lake team played hard and the first
half ended to II, in their favor.
In the second half everybody played
his best but the Mt. Lake team work
triumphed, altho New Ulm broke up
many of their plays they succeeded in
making Fl more points, mostly on out
| of bound plays from the ends of the
floor.
Even if the New Ulm boys lost, they
played one of the hardest and best games
of the season. It was a good and clean
game all through. The boys regretted
that the Mt. Lake gymnasium was so
very small, not even being half as big
| as the one here and said they were not
used to playing by moonlight. The
lighting fixtures were poor which made
it hard for New Ulm to find the bas-
kets.
The speed of the Mountain Lake
players was revelation. They rushed
/ the ball down the length of the floor
again and again only to be met by the
close guarding of the New Ulm boys.
Ray Lehman played star game by
holding down the Mt. Lake center,
reputed to be the best center in the state
to no baskets and scoring one himself.
After the game delicious lunch was
served to the players which was duly
appreciated by the New Ulm boys.

Page touched the rose jar with her hand.
"And for me, for my sake, you gave up
the happiness that might have come to
you, didn't you, Mother?"
Il kept you first always" the mother
said evasively, then passionately, ayes,
| gave that up too, the best, the sweetest
thing that ever came into my life. When
IL saw how he felt, when knew how

as if everything in life that was worth

Page knelt on the floor at her mothers
feet. "You gave up your chance of happi-
ness for me, and Father-did the same!
Oh, I've cost lott You've paid heavy

married life from father and mother who

it was born. Oh, Mother, do you think
that the violence you and Father did to
your own natures didn't react on mine?
Could either you or he easily forget the
sacrifices you made for me? Do you think
that the child of such ioveless marriage
as yours, Mother, is not made to pay every
debt of suffering the parents have in
curred?"
Mrs. Amberley turned almost hyster-

subsequently surrendered himself to the
proper officers and demanded a trial. He
was acquitted; but public sentiment was
overwhelmingly against him. In the fall
of 1860 he removed to Virginia City,
Nevada, where he temporarily engaged
in mining. Two years later he came back
to Stockton and started life all over again.
His ability and integrity gradually won
back his law practice, in spite of the fact
that the Civil War was now in progress
and that his sympathies were all with his
native South. Finally, in January, 1868,
he made his way to Vicksburg and joined
the forces of General johnson. After the
battle of Vicksburg he went to Richmond,
and was commissioned to raise regiment
in Texas. On his way he fell in with Cen
eral Bragg's army, which was just about
to begin the battle of Chickamauga
Terry volunteered for the battle, and was
wounded in the right arm. After Chick
amauga he proceeded to Texas and raised
a regiment. Shortly thereafter he was
commissioned Brigadier General, and re-
manned in command of brigade of Texas
troops until the surrender of General e.
Kirby Smith. Meanwhile his wife had

to Stockton, arriving in 1869. He re-
sumed the practice of law, and soon be-
came again prominent in the political
life of California.
His life closed in 1889 as the result of
another personal encounter. He made
an attack on Stephen j. Field, Associate
Justice of the United States Supreme
Court, against whom he had an old
grudge, and in the scuffle that followed
he was shot by United States Marshal
David Neage. Neagle was exonerated
because it was proved that he had been
specially detailed to protect Judge Field
from just such an attack. Terry died
almost instantly, at the age of sixty-seven.
He was carried in honor to his grave; but
there was no oratory.

vulsion, and his head dropped, his left
knee gave way, and he sank to the ground,
his left arm supporting him.
AS Broderick's friends rushed to his
side Terry folded his arms and stood per-
fectly still. He remarked to his second
that he had chit too far out, and he evil
IDENTIFY expected another exchange of
shots; but it was soon evident that Brod-
erick's wound was serious, if not fatal, and
that "honor had been indicated.
The wounded man was removed to the
home of friend at Black Point, and it
soon became known that his condition was
extremely dangerous. He fingered for
three days, with his friends in alternate
hope and despair, and died on Friday
morning. A postmortem examination
showed that the bullet had pierced his
lungs.
Broderick was buried on Sunday from
the Union Hotel on Kearny street, which
had long been his headquarters. A plat
form had been erected in Portsmouth
Square (Which is now on the edge of
Chinatown), and a great crowd gathered
to hear the funeral Grafton delivered by
Edward Dickinson Baker, who was one
OF the finest speakers ever known III the
West.
A S in the case of most of those who have
survived American dues, Terry was a
ruined man from that day. Broderick's
partizans made much political capital out
of the tragedy, and even went so far as to
say that the duel was conspiracy on the
part of the slavery element to get Brod-
erick out of the way. They took advan-
tage of the fact that the pistols used had
been brought by Terry and insisted that
the one held by Broderick had been so
fixed that it would be prematurely dis
charged.

Tener was in box seat at the start of the first game of the Brooklyn Chicago double-header and when Quigley took the field to of- ficiate single handed Tener sent word to O'Day to come to his box.
