He'll was captain of the freshmen
team at Washburn last season and it
was conceded by all who saw him
play that he was one of the best quar-
terbacks in the whole state. His
knowledge of the game, his speed,
daring and skill i'll working trick for
nations made the freshmen a match
for the varsity almost every afternoon
in practice and the Heil-Gray combi-
nation made the Ichabcd Yearlings
terror to all teams that opposed them.
He'll was conceded to have the art
of hurting the forward pass down to
perfection and it was no trick for him
to throw the ball as far as the average
player could punt it.
Up until a short time ago Cot had
intended re-entering Washburn and
becoming a candidate for the first
team, but through the influence of
Pete He'll, who has made such a repu-
tation at Pittsburgh, he was indu'Dd
to go east. He expects to leave for
Chicago next Sundey night and will

Francis willard, son of F. G. Will
lard, of Topeka, and one of the best
players on the Ann Arbor freshman
football squad last fall, has been or
dered to report at the training table
at Ann Arbor not later than Sept. 20.
This order from the director of ath
letics is taken to mean that he is con-
sidered a likely candidate for one of
the first team positions. File will leave
here about Sept. 10 and hopes to try
for right tackle or quarterback.
Mrs Jess Willard, who left Topeka
Thursday for her home in California,
only laughed when asked about the
story that was sent out from the east
some time ago stating that she had
been ordered home to die, and that
Willard had been kept from accompa-
nying her against his will by his
managers. While Mrs. Willard did not
say as much, she looked as though
she thought any one should under
stand why and how the story origi-
mated.

WIESE CASE FINALLY ENDED

The well known Huldah Wiese case
which excited considerable comment in
1912 was finally decided in favor of the
plaintiff by a Supreme Court decision
of recent date and the defendant,
Harris Wallin, must pay the sum of
$500 to the Plaintiff from his fathers
estate.
The civil action grew out Of "a criminal
case which occurred in September of
1912. At that time Wallin fired a
loaded shot gun at the plaintiff and
severely wounded her. He was in
dicted for the offense and on December
was sentenced to the State Prison at
Saltwater. Later, a civil action was
begun and as the defendant did not
answer or appear, judgement was rem
derel in favor of Plaintiff for the sum of
$500. Nearly a year later application
was made to the Court to reopen the
judgment. This Judge Olsen denied
and he was sustained by the Supreme
Court. The defendant had nothing
with which to satisfy the judgment at
the time it was rendered. Since then
his father died intestate and the defen-
dant's interest in the estate, was sold
on execution sale in May, 1914 and
purchased by the plaintiff.

REUNION AT FRlEDENs CHURCH

Rev. C. F. Mayer of the Friedens
Church was instrumental in bringing
about delightful ''get together" of his
young people whom he has confirmed
during the past ten years at his church
last Sunday. Nearly hundred young
people OF New Ulm and the surrounding
towns took part in the reunion. Essig
and Nicollet furnished the majority of
the out-of-town visitors, the Sanborn
delegation being unable to come because
OF the bad roads.
The celebration started with morning
services at the church at which Rev.
Mayer preached a strong sermon taking
as his text the 25th and 26th verses OF
the Ninth Chapter of First Corinthians.
Two very enjoyable numbers were
rendered by chorus of seventy-five
voices.
At noon picnic dinner was served in
the park in which all joined and enjoyed
a jolly reunion till three o'clock in the
afternoon when concert service was
given. Harry Mecklenburg gave a
speech at this time which we'll bespoke
the sentiments of his fellow confrmants.
The meeting closed with everyone con-
vinced that the reunion was fine thing
which should be frequently repeated.
The classes presented their pasotr with
a beautiful gilt of silverware, Lillian
Eyrich making the presentation speech.

NARROWLY ESCAPES DEATH.

While helping in the transporting OF a
heavy load Of gas pipes along Franklin
st. between 1st and End North last
Thursday, John Bluehm fell Of the
wagon between the wheels and escaped
death by very narrow margin. The
driver, Art Heinen saw the mishap and,
with rare presence of mind, brought
the team to quick stop. He was none
too soon, for the hind wheel had already
struck the head of the prostrate man
and if it had gone foot farther the
heavily loaded wagon would have
crushed it. At it was, Bluehm's head
was badly cut and several stitches were
required to close up the gashes over the
ear and right eye. Bluehm has been
laid up for few days but will soon be
able to 60 to work again.

PLOW CORN SHALLOW.

uc 1OAOW1HS IOIlCS 11O1A n. IL
Wilson, Director Of Agriculture Exten-
sion of the University of Minnesota
should be of general interest to the
farmers of Brown County.
''The wet weather has made it unsafe
to cultivate corn deeply at this time,
says A. c. Army, of the Minnesota
Experiment Station.
In wet weather when the soil is
saturated with moisture there is a
scarcity of air for the corn roots. Con-
sequent]y they grow near the surface.
Deep cultivation, therefore, after the
corn has obtained height of or 7
inches, will destroy the roots, lessen the
moisture supply to plants, and make
them more subject to the effect of dry
weather later in the season. This means
loss to the farmer in any case-some-
times very serious loss
''No general rule can be given as to
the depth at which to cultivate as con-
ditions vary in different parts Of the
state, and on different parts of the same
farm, or even of the same field, but by
examining the rootgroWth in various
parts of his corn acreage, a farmer can
determine the depth at which it is safe
to plow with the least possible loss to
his corn, and can set his cultivator ;ac-
cordingly.
"In general. plowing too deep should
be very carefully avoided"

rib and Kraus was badly cut by the
broken glass Of the windshield. The
women we're badly shaken up but the
children escaped without injury.
As Mr.. Kraus turned the corner, the
car skidded and, leaving the grade,
turned over, throwing the occupants
out as it turned. The accident seems
to have been due to combination of
slippery roads and too much speed at the
curve. The car was badly wrecked.

DIR. voGEL ACQUITTED.

After listening to the conflicting
testimony of host of witnesses Last
Monday afternoon who testified that
they had seen DR.. Voga hitting the dirt
at rate Of speed estimated from eight
to one hundred and twenty miles an
hour, the four good men and true who
constituted the jury brought in verdict
of not guilty.
The trial grew out of the arrest of the
doctor on June 1st on a charge of ex-
eeeding the speed limits in his good
green car. The opinion of several
reputable witnesses seemed to be that
the doctor was going it some. When
brought to trial, Dr.. Vogel asked for
continuation of the case which was
granted and the final trial was scheduled
for last Monday. Many were interested
in the outcome for it did not seem at
all possible that a doctor, spending his
life in the service Of suffering humanity,
would think Of endangering life by
driving his car at an excessive rate Of
speed.
The testimony brought forward was
extensive if not enlightening. From
the statement of one witness Attorney
Somsen proved by the simplest mathe-
mates that the doctor was in position
to challenge Barney Oldfeld, Jack
Johnson and all contenders. Verify,
l20 miles is hitting it up some. Even
the familiar green car would find trouble
to make that speed. The hour at which
the alleged offense occurred was equally.
uncertain and with the confusion Of
testimony to consider, the Jury, after an
hours elaboration, decided to give it
up and let the doctor try again under
more favorable conditions for timing his
speed.
