SOCIALIST WOMAN SPEAKER.

One of the most interesting and ex-
perienced speakers at the disposal of
the German group of Socialists will
deliver a lecture at Gebser's Hall, next
Friday evening, November Goth on the
World War and European Conditions !.
The, speakers name is Madame Alexan-
dra Kollontay and she comes from the
old Russian nobility. She studied politi-
cal economy in Zurich, Switzerland and
developed into a Socialist. After her
return home, she proclaimed the doctrine
of liberty, and was so bounded by the
Russian government that she went to
Berlin. During her stay in Germany
she travelled all over Germany delivering
addresses on behalf of the Socialist
Democratic party.

had to borrow lantern to take home so
that the family could see to 60 to bed
since his home is lighted as well as sup
piled with gas for cooking. Their noon
meal was made eatable by warming it up
on their coal furnace. Other families
used chatting dishes and alcohol lamps to
prepare their sumptuous Sunday dinners,
meanwhile scolding to think they had
sold their ranges when the lure of the
new gas conveniences captured their
fancy. Others who had more room in
their kitchen, or more money in their
purses, and had not been obliged to get
rid of their kitchen ranges, were able to
say with considerable satisfaction, oh,
you know, we didn't sell our range.
We just felt that something like this
might happen and so we were very
comfortable.
The Gas Company announces that
this occurrence will simply hasten the
installation of a double setting at the
gas plant so that nothing of the sort
could occur again, even tho just such
an accident might probably never happen
in the life of the plant second time.

COMMERCIAL CLUB
KEEPS OPEN HOUSE
NEW ROOMS INFORMALLY DEDI-
GATED BY RECEPTION FOR
CITIZENS.
COMMODIOUS, PLEASANT AND
HOMELIKE SURROUNDINGS
FOR CIVIC BODY.

One hundred and sixty of New Ulm's
ladies awaited themselves Monday of the
opportunity to inspect the Commercial
Club rooms. A general invitation had
been sent out by the Commercial Club
and the response was truly gratifying.
From two o'clock until six the Club kept
open house.
E AS the ladies entered they were re
ceived by committee consisting of
Mrs. Charles Vogtel, Mrs. H. N. Somsen
and Mrs. G. A. Ottomeyer. Another
committee of the younger married
ladies consisting of Mrs. Jos. Arbes,
Mrs. H. G. Bingham, Mrs. Carl Crone,
Jr. and Mrs. Jos. Bianchi, served refresh
ments consisting of frappe' and waters.
Each lady visitor was also given car
nation with the compliments of Mr..
Somsen, the owner of the block.
No regular program was given in the
afternoon but there was program OF
music from one of Edison's Photographs
which had been put at the disposal Of
the club by E. A. Pfeferle who also
furnished young man to operate the
machine. There was the latest music
both classic and ragtime.
The ladies were shown about the club
rooms as part of the afternoons enter
tainment. All of them were highly
impressed with the elegant and com
Portable quarters that the Club now
occupies and to many of them it was
forcibly brought home how easily it can
happen that the men folks are not able
to tear themselves loose from the club
home until late in the evening. Some
mean person spread the report that the
main reason for inviting the ladies was
to produce just this result.
In the evening the members of the
Club enjoyed their own hospitality
The affair was very informal. There was
no program and the members merely
smoked and visited. Some played
billiards and others cards, but the most
of them enjoyed themselves talking to
their friends. About ten o'clock coffee
and sandwiches were served. Billy
Mather was master of ceremonies and

VENIENCE OF FINDING NEW
HOMES.

To sit quietly by ones fireside enjoy
ing it's warmth and then to be called to
the door and asked if one were not in
terested to know that ones house was
was on fire was the experience Of the
women folks of the three families oc-
cupying the Elder house at the corner Of
Washington and Center Street Mon
day evening. Mrs. Viergever, wife
of one of the members of the High School
Faculty was sitting with Mrs. Amund-
son, another one of the tenants OF the
house, when they were startled in this
fashion, their informant being Ed. Lar
son who happened to be going by the
house and saw the fire in the roof.
Mr.. and Mrs. Viergever and their two
children occupy the upper floor of the
building which is a large two story frame
structure. The Amundsens occupy a
part of the ground floor and the rest of
the house is occupied by Mr.. and Mrs.
Buehrer. All of the men of the families
were away, Mr.. Buehrer being at his
Office, Mr.. Viergever conducting night
school at the High School building just
across the away and Mr.. Amundsen
who is travelling salesman, away on his
territory.
The alarm was turned in and tho the
apparatus was quickly on the scene it
looked for time as tho the house could
not be saved. But quick work with
chemicals and then water when it was
found that the flames had too much
Roadway to be handled without it, dead
ened the fire so that it was out within
about an hour of the time of the alarm.
All three families in the meantime had
got their goods outside and out of the
way of the water which began to come
thru floors and ceilings.
The chief damage to the building it.
self was in the roof which was quite badly
burned and on the lower floor where the
water took the plaster off as fast as it
came thru. Damage to the house is
estimated at $500. tho it will probably
run higher before repairs are finished.
It is fully covered by insurance. The

In spite of the cold, raw weather Sun
day large number of people attended
the Hasenpfeffer, Turkey Shoot and
Deer Rattle at the Fair Grounds that
day and when the excitement was
over the exchequer of the Brown Coun-
ty Agricultural Society had been en-
riched to the extent of about $500.
Secretary Engelbert was busy the greater
portion of Monday morning counting
the money and checking over the various
receipts and disbursements. The total
receipts amounted in round numbers to
$500 and the disbursements to about
$400, thus leaving a very substantial
sum to swell the fund for a new grand
stand. The receipts at the Grounds
amounted to $519.05 and the balance
was contributed by those who had
charge of the deer rattle.
The turkey shoot proper began at l
o'clock and was concluded at p. m.
One hundred and five turkeys and 155
ducks were disposed of in the usual
manner. There were no geese ratified off.
because only two specimens had been
received and it was decided not to enter
any geese at all.
During the afternoon music was
furnished by the following well-known
musicians: Capt. Jos. Hofmeister, Sergt.
John Wartha and Henry Kitzberger and
Anton A. Henle and Otto Zupfer. Quite
number of crack shots and sportsmer
were in from the countryside and there
were delegates from Springfield, Morgan
Hanska and Essig present. Interest as
usual centered in the deer rattle. Mum.
Der -Four was the lucky ticket. This
was held by John Babcock, residing at
Minneapolis, travelling salesman, TO,

Minneapolis. Mr.. Babcock has been
notified of his rare good luck and he will
no doubt, show up in person soon tc
receive from the August Schell Brewing
Company, the deer which they donated
to the Fair Association.
The Fair management appreciates very
much the liberal patronage accorded
them Sunday and considers it as an
endorsement of their efforts to make the
Brown County Fair bigger and more
instructive every year.

JOE GRANGER
FILES ANSWER
IN LAND CASE
Offers to Divide Property With
Marie LeClaire, Wife of John
LeClaire.

Joseph Granger, old resident of Hib-
bing, has filed his answer in the suit
brought by Marie LeClaire to secure
title to a homestead conveyed by her
husband, John LeClaire, deceased, to
Granger several years ago, which de-
veloped the fact that LeClaire in life
had lived a dual life and negotiated a
bigamous marriage. She asked that
the conveyance Of his homestead to
Granger be set aside on the ground
that she was his lawful wife and that
the deed executed by LeClaire to
Granger had been executed and made
without her knowledge and consent.
Granger's answer is substantially
that he entered into a deal with Le-
Claire for the purchase of the land in
good faith, had no knowledge Of his
dual marriage, that the land at the
time he purchased it was of the rea-
sonable value of $1,255, and that since
that time he has made improvements
to it of the value Of $4,000. He offers
to compromise the case by paying
Mrs. LeClaire one-third of what shall
be its present fair appraised value.
The matter will come on for DISPOSE
tion at the next term of the district
court in Hibbing. Judge Montague Of
Virginia is Mrs. LeClaire's attorney.
