Automobile Accident.
Buick Car Crashes Into Ditch
and Culvert Buttment.
OccuDants Cut And Bruised.

and Culvert Buttment.
Occupants Cut And Bruised.
Tuesday evening last about 7.30 O'Clock
an automobile party passing through
Thurmont came to grief on the State
Road at the edge of town. The car, a
late style Buick, and the property of
Harry Barrick of Woodsboro, contained
four passengers, two women and two
men, and was headed toward Frederick
and going at fast clip. Persons who
saw the car on the road on the road be-
fore the accident occurred say it was
wabbling from side to side of the road.
When nearing the residence of j. Polk
Miller, the car took to the left of the
road and struck and carried away Mr..
Millers mail box. Continuing along the
side of the road for probably $50 feet
the car finally struck the concrete butt
ment of culvert, the contact stopping
the car and putting it out of commission.
1t is said that one of the women was
thrown through the windshield by the
sudden stop. Certain it was that her
face was horribly cut, her lip being cut
through and bad cut along the nose
being the worst. The other woman es-
capped injury.
Barrick, who was at the wheel, had one
of his hands injured, and his chum re-
ceived a severe scalp wound.
After the collision DIR. E. C. Kefauver
was sent for and rendered surgical aid,
the unfortunates having been taken into
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. jeremiah Dut-
row.
1t is stated by those who gathered at
the scene after the news became known,
that a number of bottles of beer were
found about the car. This fell into good
hands and was soon got away with.
After the wound of the injured ones
were dressed, the four were placed in
Mr.. John O'Toole's car which had been
secured to take them home. The car
in charge of Mr.. O'Toole came in town
md stopped long enough to allow Mr..
Barrick to purchase cap, his having
been lost when the wreck occurred. On
being asked if he was one of the gentle
men that was in the wrecked car, he
was apparently amazed to know any had
occurred, but offered to leave the party
know the particulars if he heard any
thing.
The car we are told has been in service
only several weeks. AS it now appears,
the left side is wreck, the front wheel,
lamp, fender, footboard, having been
stripped. Considerable damage was done
other parts of the machine.
Mr.. Vincent O'Toole lowed the car to
his garage for repairs.
The names of the persons with Mr..
Barrick were difficult to learn, several
being given by the women and also by the
man.

Tramps Will Not Get In
Montevue So Easy.
Commissioners Think Work
Is Too Plentiful.

"Breaking into Mortevue. Frederick
county's charity institution and hospital,
is this winter going to be trying pro-
cess for Weary Willies This winter the
county commissioners have so fixed things
that knights of the highway will not
bask in idleness in the sunshiny and airy
corridors of Montevue. The word has
gone down the line that tramps, with
exceptions, will be admitted at the in
stitution.
Application must be made to the Board
of County Commissioners during hours
of regular session. The wouldbe So
journers at the institution must stand
before the desk of the commissioner
and give biography of their lives; must
show to the satisfaction of the commits
sioners that they are indeed worthy SUBJ
jects of charity.
The attitude shown by certain men,
bers of that body is certainly not at all
favorable to tramps. Instead of doing
out charity there commissioners who
would act in the capacity of an employ
ment bureau. They will find work for
these men who would spend the winter
as guests of the county taxpayers.
Such will be the experience of tramps.
They must establish their place of resi-
dence. Then the board will offer to pro-
vide employment.
Last year the commissioners started to
break up the winter home of tramps at
Montevue hospital. 1t worked success
fully. This year the scheme will be put
into effect on more elaborate plan.-

WHY Not Repair.

For more than month the iron guard
rail at the bridge across Rouzer's branch
has been out of position, and no effort
has been made to repair same. If one
of the many persons who travel that way
accidentally steps off the pavement into
the water four feet below, repairs will
likely be made at considerable cost.

THE PRINCE" MAKES A HIT.

New Ulm has had rather more than
it's share of pleasant doings the past week,
with all it's conventions, ETC., and not
the least pleasant was the Sunday night
performance of "A Prince of Tonight"
by a company of players at the Turner
Theatre. In fact, it was quite one of
the treats of the week and if Manager
Johnson can secure such talent for the
balance Of the winter, New Ulm people
will not have to 60 to the cities for any,
thing they want in the theatrical amuse-
ment line. For clean, bright, sparkling
fun, pretty clothes, 'sreaP' looking lads
and lassies, tuneful voices and acting
above the average, the company certainly
is to be complimented. There was not a
doubtful line in the whole production,
horse play was thing unknown, and yet
there was plenty to make merry over and
to be enjoyed every moment. The mems
voices were delightful and the girls could
all sing as we'll as look pretty. The plot
was sufficient.

SENIORS HAVE PICNIC.

The Senior class took the first step in
reviving the long neglected social life
of the high school when they planned,
organized, and automatically carried out
class picnic Thursday afternoon. The
ceremonies were held on the banks OF
the Cottonwood under the care and
direction of Principal Hutson, who
managed to save enough of the festive
wiener from the Senior cooks to supply
a good wiener roast. The class, how
ever, preferred boiled dog with their
buns and coffee. The start was made
at the front entrance of the high school
building, and the epilogue stretched
somewhere into the next day. Nc
disastrous after effects were noticed in
the school work as a result of this rash
departure from the straight paths Of
scholastic duty.

FACULTY BASKETBALL TEAM
ORGANIZED.

A basket ball team which gives
promise of something distinctly new in
the line of sport in New Ulm High
School was organized last week by the
men of the high school faculty. Acting
under the theory that man is as old
as he feels, the married, unmarried and
non-married men of the faculty decided
to keep young in body and in spirit by
reducing the championship aspirations
of several of the so-called basketball
teams circulating around the country.
The rejuvenated athletes represent
quite variety Of different institutions
where they pursued athletics as side
line to the dilligent acquisition of
Kultur. Mr.. Hamlin, who is expected
to hold down the pivotal position,
selected for his Alma Mater an institution
as much like his name as possible
Hannline University. Mr.. Hutson is a
graduate of Beloit; Mr.. Haynes comes
from the New York State Normal
College. These two will play the guard
positions. Mr.. Viergever's basketball
memories 60 back to Lawrence and
Ohio State University; Mr.. Kierzek halls
from Carleton. They have undertaken
to uphold the scoring end of the machine.
Several nights have already been utilized
in practise, and this schedule will con-
TIME as an anti-tOxin to Plane Geometry
and Civics. While thus occupied it is
expected that the teachers will have
little spare time to stray off the paths of
righteousness and dignity.

"NEAR-FooTBALL" PRACTISE
STARTS.

The pulmotor was applied to the
convalescing athletic spirit of the high
school last week when the Junior
Sophomore football enthusiasts began
practise for the interclass series. Inter-
scholastic football has been black-listed
and mathematical for several years,
and must not be mentioned above a
whisper, but the more mild, denatured
form of it is delicacy which might
satisfy the athletic appetites of New
Ulm's drove of huskies. Mr.. Hamlin
has this team under his charge and is
feeding Coach Baird's plays to them in
a way to make that worthy mentors
heart glad.
The seniors, after several days Of
watchful waiting, finally decided to turn
out for practise Monday night. They
have the advantage over their Junior
brethren in weight and experience, but
with the brand of pep that Mr.. Hamlir
is feeding to his hopefuls they will have
their hands full in winning their games
Chick Olsen, who plays the quarterback
position, has been elected captain OF the
Junior team. His competent right wing
is expected to aid the Juniors in scoring
via the forward pass route; Schleudel
and Herzog are two other promising
candidates for the backfeld. The
Seniors will have a heavier and more
experienced back field in Durbahn, Berg
and Peuser, and their line, while rather
weak at the ends, will have two ex-
perienced men in Alvin and Nagel.
The first clash will take place in two
weeks, on neutral territory. A series Of
two or three games will be played, the
winners to have their pictures suspended
in the local hall of fame.

HIGH SCHOOL NEWS.
DEBATERS START WORK.

A squad of very intelligent looking
debaters started work last week on the
interscholastic question day after
Principal Illusions eloquent appeal Tor
candidates. The question selected by
the State Interscholastic Debate League
this wear is: Resolved that the U. $.
Army and Navy should be materially
increased" 1t is question which
has been discussed pro and con by Billy
Bryan, Secretary Daniels, Life and
the "Fatherland" until the muddle OF
conflicting testimony is so thick that it
will form a most delightfully."- intricate
problem for the youthful debaters to
solve.
Two of last years team are back this
wear, both hard at work for the try outs
which will come in two weeks. Besides
these two there are several others, both
boys and girls, in the race, so that Who
ever lands position on the team will do
it through pure merit and not because OF
lack of competition.
The opponent has not yet been selected
but the New Ulm high school debaters
deep in their hearts are praying that 1t
will be Redwood Falls again this year.
Redwood Falls has won two debates so
far, but there is a sentiment abroad
among the high school students that they
are not beaten yet, and that the fur will
fly when they meet again.

HERMAN's SONS COMING SUNDAY

This years annual outing of the
Hermann Sons Of the State Of Minnesota
will be celebrated on Hermann. .Hei&kts
in this city. This is. their 18th annual
picnic. 1t was necessary during the
year to make quite extensive repairs
on the monument and further repairs
may become necessary shortly and this
picnic has been arranged for the sole
purpose of raising funds to pay for such
improvements.
All the receipts from this outing will
60 into the repair fund of the Order in
this state and will be expended solely
for the rehabilitation of the monument
and the grounds. In this connection it
might be stated that the monument is
one of the attractions that the city has
to offer to visitors and transients who
come to the city and it behooves our
citizens to take an interest in main
tanning and keeping up this attraction.
The majority of the citizens of New Ulm
have not contributed to any appreciable
extent in the matter of the erection of the
monument and the least that can be
asked of them now is to give these
picnics that are arranged for the upkeep
Of the monument not only their moral
support, but attend the outing and prove
to the Order Of Sons of Hermann that
they appreciate the distinction of having
this monument erected in our midst.
The outing will be in the nature of a
German Volksfest. There will be music
by the Second Regiment Band and songs
by the Liederkranz of Minneapolis
and other societies. It is planned also
to have short address of welcome by
Mayor Fritsche and a speech by julius
Moersch, President of the German
Alliance of this state. There will also
be games and dance at the pavilion.
A special on the M. & St. L. will bring
the guests from the Twin Cities. The
train will leave St. Paul at o'clock and
Minneapolis at $3.50. Those who should
miss the special can take the regular
train which leaves St. Paul at 8:15 and
Minneapolis at 9 a. m. The special
is due to arrive here at 1870 and will
be met at the depot by the Second Regi-
ment Band and the members of the local
lodge and escorted to Hermann's Park.
The special will return to the Cities at
g p. m. The Liederkranz singing So
ciety will stay over and will have a
Kommers at Turner Hall for themselves
and a few invited guests. If the weather
should prove favorable, large crowd is
expected from the Cities and from the
country side adjacent to New Ulm.
The slogan next Sunday should be son
to Hermann's Heights
