GERMAN THEATRE AT ARMORY

The German-American citizens of
New Ulm and vicinity will be given a
rare treat on December 9Th and 18th.
The German Theatre of New York,
which has been largely increased in its
its personnel owing to the war has sent
part of it's ensemble on tour through
the United States. under the business
management of Rudolf Bach and the
Art Direction of Gustav Olmar. Both
gentlemen will be remembered here as
having been members of the Oberammer-
gauer Theatrical Troupe which played
here last year; especially Gus. Olmar,
who became great favorite among the
German-Americans; and he justly de-
serves this attention on the part OF the
public. In every part he has created,
he has done his best, and he has thereby
furnished many delightful hour to his
large audiences. He is ably supported
by company of first-class artists, for
the most part but recently arrived here.
The plays to be given, "Our Hussars"
and ''Lolas Father have all the re-
quisites of good drama. The plot is
free of all Objectionable features; the
songs are of the best, the dancing is of a
nature to please everybody, and the
jokes are real wit on decent lines. All
of which will keep the public in royal
good humor. No German-A1krican
should miss this opportunity to attend
a first-class German theatrical show and
entertainment, inasmuch as by so doing
he may also attest his sympathies for
the ''old fatherland" by his recognition
of this one form of German culture.

Before proceeding to the election of
a new board of directors Pres. Ottomeyer
read his annual report in which he re-
ferred to the work that had been ac-
complished in the past year and made
especial reference to the more harmo-
NOUS spirit that is being cultivated and
is growing. He thanked all those who
had so ably assisted him in the work
and prophesied that the Club would
continue in it's efficient work. He also
stated that he would not accept re-
election because he felt that his two
years of strenuosity entitled him to some
rest.
George Hogen and R. R. Kemski acted
as tellers for the annual election which
was held at the close of the meeting.
The following directors were elected:
Charles Vogtel, Henry N. Somsen, J..
A. Ochs, F. H. Behnke, A. H. Stork
and J. F. Armstrong. The newly
elected board met Monday evening and
organized by electing the following
officers for the ensuing year: Pres, G..

Secy.-Treas., VIM. F. Nellie.
Yesterday morning Pres. Ottomeyer
announced the following committee on
the packing plant proposition: G. W..

Charles A. Stolz reported verbally
that at the present time there is no
chance to have sidewalk laid on First
North Street to the Eagle Roller Mill
plant. He stated that he had spoken
to the Chairman of the Street Com
mittee and had been informed that the
city treasury did not warrant the outlay
of any considerable sums OF money and
that the council had during the year
confined themselves almost wholly to
repair work.
A communication from H. K. Zuppin-
ger stating his willingness to deliver an
address to the members OF the club on
credits and other matters pertaining
to the retail trade was read and referred
to the board of directors for final action.
Mr.. Zuppinger is at the present time
Secretary of the State Organization of
Commercial Clubs.
A communication from Postmaster
Fred Pfaender in which he asked the
cooperation of the Club in improving
the postal service and asking for sug-
gestions as to how this could be ac-
complished was read and referred to the
proper committee. Another commune
cation was read which came from the
Coke Coal Co. of Kansas City, Mo. in
which they discussed the question of
converting garbage into fuel. The letter
was referred to the Committee of In
dustries.
The matter of securing telephone
service with New Ulm for about 40
farmers living near Swan Lake received
some attention from the Club. It
seems that the farmers in question are
connected with the Nicollet County
Telephone Co. which gives them con-
nection with St. Peter and not with New
Ulm where they do their trading. A
committee of these farmers had inter-
.ceded with the Nicollet Telephone Co.
but received very little encouragement
and finally took it up with the local
company. Mr.. Retzlaf stated that
under existing laws telephone companies
are under the direct supervision of the
Railroad & Warehouse Commission
and that they had directed the farmers
to make their complaint to the Com
mission. He stated further that if the
Commission acted favorably on the COM
plant that the service would be given to
the Swan Lake farmers under such con-
,ditions as are fair and reasonable.
By far the most important matter
that has engaged the attention of the Club
was the packing plant proposition which
was brought up by DR.. Schoch. He
stated that J. A. Ochs had called his
attention to the fact that within the
past few months Faribault had gone out
and sold enough stock to enable them
to build 100000 plant in that city.
Austin has plant of this kind also.
According to the Doctor New Ul1n is
even more favorably located than either
Faribault or Austin and that it would
prove great boon to the farmers within
a radius of at least 80 miles. The
members were very favorably impressed
with the proposition and voted to have
a committee of three appointed which
is to investigate the proposition and that
their expenses be paid in case they have

The committee on Charities for the
City reported progress and asked that
time be given it until the next monthly

There was no report from the committee
on the central heating plant proposition,
the Chairman being absent. 1t is con-

Charities which was recently held here,
the committee reported total receipts
