l Fred Larsen, the mail carrier who departed for Candle about ten days age returned to town last night after suf- fering a variety of experiences on the winter trail that would furnish excel
 lent material for a Beach or a Lon
 don being fraught with all the ele-
 ments of danger and hardship pictured
 in the tales of those writers. As a
 matter of fact it is little short of won-
 derful that Larsen is alive to tell the
 tale. Larsen set out for Candle with
 reindeer teams, intending to make the
 round trip in time to enable the Can
 dleites to dispatch their mail outside
 by the last trip of the Victoria but
 he was doomed to disappointment as and in addition to nearly losing his
 life was compelled to abandon the
 trip after reaching Salt Lake where
 he broke through the ice, sled and all, and was only saved from freezing to death after getting out of the water by the timely action of his partner who relieved him of his frozen clothes and wrapped him in a robe before the
 wintry gale froze his flesh. Owing to
 the absence of shelter of any descrip- tion in the locality. Larsen was com pelled to return to the nearest cabin, many miles away across a barren, windswept country of the most des- olate character. Before arriving at shelter of any kind the sled on which was carried a portion of the mail broke down and the mail was scattered over the country by the furi- ous gale which had blown throughout the entire period after the carrier reached the Kruzagamapa divide. Suf- fering indescribably, the men gathered up the mail and finally decided to give up the attempt to reach their northern destination. That the man has suffer- ed a terrible experience is plainly in- dfcated in his appearance. Consider ing the nature of the hardships he has been forced to undergo it is alomst a miracle that he was able to return at all

COSTS MONEY TO VENT SPITE.

Monday morning at 10 o'clock Anton
A. Henle appeared before City Justice
N. Henningsen and plead guilty to
the charge of having wrongfully and viii
fully spat on the show windows of C.
G. Rein, the jeweler. He was fined
$1,000 and costs, amounting to $14.OO
which he paid and was thereupon dis
charged.
The offense for which he was arrested
was committed Thursday morning about
5 o'clock. For several weeks the fronts
of various business houses along Mime
sofa Street had been decorated with
sputum. Nothing was thought of it at
first but its recurrence at frequent inter-
walls aroused the suspicion in the minds
of some that this splitting on the windows
was done Intentionally. For the purpose
of catching the guilty party Chief
Klause and C. G. REIN lay in wait
Thursday morning and caught Henle
in the act. He was Immediately placed
under arrest and taken to the jail. At
ten o'clock he was arraigned before
Justice Henningsen and at his request
the case was adjourned until Monday
morning when the defendant plead
guilty and was fined.

Companies Get
Additional Help
NEW ULM HAS HEADQUARTERS
COMPANY AND DRAWS AN
OTHER $4,000
LOCAL COMPANIES, BAND AND
COLONEL BUscHERs MEET
REQUIREMENTS.

New Ulm may consider itself fortunate
in having the Regimental headquarters
and the band located here. This means
that New Ulm will receive an additional
$4,000 from the State for armorv
purposes.
Pursuant to General Orders No. Ia
issued out of the Adjutant Generals
Office under date of August 10, 1915
the organization of a company known
as the headquarters comapny" is pro-
vided for. This company will consist
of the Colonel, 1t. Colonel, Regimental
Adjutant, members of the regimentaI
non-commissioned staff, total of nine
and the q members of the regimentaI
band, making total of 36 officers and
men.
These orders were not received here
until the early part of December En-
mediately upon their arrival, they were
submitted to Attorney General Smith
for an opinion of the statutes of this
company with reference to sharing IN
state appropriations. December 18th
the Attorney General filed his opinion
to the effect that the Headquarters
company" was to all intents and pur-
poses a military organization and AZ
such entitled to any and all state appro-
priations, even as to the $4,000 for
armory purposes, provided it complies
with all the requirements made obi
gatory upon the various companies who
desire to share in this state aid.
AS soon as this information reached
lSeS JIM steps were taken tosraise the
necessary $1,000. This was accom-
plished in short order by Co. Buschers
and the Regimental headquarters sub
scribing 500 to this fund and the
Second Regiment Band, Co. "A' and
the Machine Gun Company each $500
This money is now on deposit in local
bank and as soon as the board of
Armory directors convenes in St. Paul,
possibly next Tuesday, the money Will
be turned over to them and this sum
and the further sum of $4,000 will be.
made available for the completion of
the armory now under process of con-
struction. With this additional appro-
priation the local armory board hopes
to be able to complete the building
according to plans and specifications
without mourning deficit. New Ulm
is certainly lucky in securing this adj
ditional appropriation.

FLOOR GIVES Way

At the annual Eisteddfod held at
Cambria near panic resulted as the
result of the floor in portion of the hall
giving way under the great weight put
upon it New Years Day when the com.
petitive events were being carried out
In reality, the accident occurred Just,
at the close of the exercises and was
caused by the fact that in the rear of
the hall those who had been unable to.
secure seats in the body of the church
stood closely massed together and when
they began to move about Just before
the dismissal of the audience the floor.
was unable to bear the strain longer and
gave way.
Cambria people feel that they were
very fortunate in that the accident
was not thousand fold worse. The
portion of the floor that gave way was
located just back of the portion of the
basement which contained the heating
plant and had the break come few
feet nearer the front Of the room without;
doubt there would have been fatalities
following it. The timbers bent from
both sides to depth of nearly three feet
and this would have been sufficient to
cause fearful injuries if the furnace had
had any part in the confusion. AS it
was, people were terribly frightened
when the loud, sudden crash was heard
Those nearest the exits made for the
outside hastily and others threw up
windows and the crowd started rush
for the doors. Two ladies were carried
out fainting. The confusion was con-
trolled by the cooler headed ones in as
short order as possible and al got out
without injuries. It is quite likely
that if the popular Eisteddfod gathering
is held next year that q larger hall VIII
have to be secured. An account Of the
contests appears in the Cambria corre-
spondence Thu weak.

singing and talks by the Superintendent
and Principal Peterson. Such volume
of music as the girls and boys poured
out in their happiness at the pleasant
new surroundings has never before
been heard in New Ulm school halls.
They were dismissed for the forenoon
following the opening exercises and the
science pupils undertook the task of
moving the apparatus from the old
class rooms into the new. Regular
work was resumed yesterday and will
be continued, uninterrupted by the
presence of workmen who will be occu-
pied with the little jobs of finishing up
for several weeks yet. The several
rooms to be used by the Domestic
Science and Manual Training will be
given attention and by the close of the
school year everything will be in readi-
ness for full force of teachers.
The casual visitor to the new build
ing must be impressed with the lack Of
ornamentation everywhere. Every piece
of timber has been put in for the utili-
tartan reason and no attempt has been
made to produce anything elaborate.
The finish is in plain, dark oak, substan-
tial, useful and beautiful in it's simpli-
city. Instead of very heavy, large
plate windows, small panes of glass have
been used to compose the side walls
in the large assembly hall which saves
the strain of the weight of heavier galss
and is more economical also in cause
of accidents. The side and overhead
lighting system is used, doing away
with the necessity of teachers facing a
glare of light as they stand before their
classes. Every modern idea of con-
venience and sanitation has been in
corporated in the equipment of the rooms
in the way of ventilating, heating and
vacuum cleaning systems. The ward
robes are all open in the halls so that
air can circulate freely among the ,raps
as they hang and thus keep them fresh
and cleaner than if they were stored
in some dark unlighted closet as is often
done in school room wardrobes.

ALUMNI BANQUETABIC SUCCESS

The plan of having the annual banquet
of the New Ulm High School Alumni
held during the Christmas vacation when
all the former students come home if
it is possible proved to be a splendid
one as never before has the affair been
so we'll attended. Nearly a hundred
were present when the gathering took
place last Thursday evening. 1t was
not banquet in the ordinary sense
of the word as the program committee
thought it would be pleasant variation
to arrange the two hours dancing from
8 to 10 followed by light supper with
out the usual program of toasts. APP
parently all the alumni in the city made
an attempt to be present but were sur
prised to find the school Board repre-
sented by one lonely member, DR.. G. F.
Reineke being the only one present.
The business meeting was held in the
supper room which was made pretty
with carnations and smilax on the tables.

Siupt. Hess suggested that it might
be very nice thing for tie Alumni to
work together to secure enough funds
to place a new grand piano in the High
School Assembly Room and the idea took
we'll, something like a hundred dollars
being promptly pledged to start the ball
rolling. A committee consisting of Ar
thur Book, DR.. A. V. Seifert, Elmer
Haeberle and Miss Vera Stricken was
appointed to see what can be done in
regard to this plan.
Officers were chosen for the next year
as follows: Arthur Book, pres; Miss

HIGH SCHOOL IN CONTEST.

The new high school building will
receive a preliminary baptism or a sort
OF quasi-dedication this coming Friday
night when the High School debating
team clashes with Redwood Falls on
the Interscholastic Debate question
The local dehaters have sacrificed several
portions OF their vacation to work on
this debate, and as they are now primed
with enough pep" and arguments to
run the Mexican government for two
weeks they expect to make creditable
showing against the veteran Redwood
Falls team. The New Ulm team con-
sists of Elizabeth Dougher, Walter
Wiedenmann and Armin Koehler. Armin
has developed a brand of responsiveness
that would coax a cast-iron dog into
wagging its tail, while Walter reports
that one night he caught himself starting
in on his direct speech instead of the
evening prayer.
AS the lighting system will not be
in place by Friday night Mr.. Hess has
arranged for temporary lights for that
that one evening. The school building
will receive its dedication later in the
year when all the work on it has been
completed. A large crowd, however,
IS expected to turn out for this occasion,
IS the rivalry between these two schools
mas always been very keen. A small
admission charge will be made to pay
he expenses of the visiting team.
