MAIL ORDER BABIES ARRIVE.

A carload of babies sent out from St.
Joseph's orphanage, New York, passed
through here yesterday morning on the
M. & St. L. on the 6:23 northbound
passenger. The babies had been adopted
in the west, and were being taken to Their
homes. The car started out from New
York with IS babies. Each baby had
little blue bow on its left shoulder with
it's number printed on it. The train was
met here by six ladies from New Ulm
and St. Peter who had ordered babies by
mail, and each one presented certificate
and received the baby having the CORE
spending number. Two of the ladies
had adopted two each. It was pretty
sight to see the eight babies fondled by
their new mothers and it was doubtful
which seemed the happier, the mothers
or the children.-Waseca Herald.
We understand that a New Ulm
family which already has big houseful
of girls and boys has welcomed two of
the little New York waits. In large
families there is always room and well
come for another, it seems, while the
smaller families often complain of the
expense of one child. It's mixed up
place, this world.

A TOWN THAT'S HARD TO BEAT.

That Springfield has a bunch of
public-spirited business men is again
evidenced in the new municipal heating
plant, the money for which will be adj
vanced by them.
For a number of years past the
question of municipal heating plant
has been discussed pro and con, and
one of the foremost boosters for the
convenience has been Geo. P. Forster.
He has had many staunch lieutenants,
who always co-operated in the idea, but
it was not until recently that the matter
of raising the necessary finances was
solved. Several weeks ago a petition
was passed around for the purpose of
raising the funds. This was generously
signed by the business men, the sums
subscribed varying from $500 to $500,
summing up total of approximately
$4,000. When the exact cost of such
plant was ascertained, after due in
vestigation, it was learned that it would
require over $4,000 and accordingly
new ways and means were resorted to to
raise the money in order that it would in
no wise cucumber the village. This
matter has been solved, for the same per-
sons who signed the original list came
to the fore by signing blanket notes in
the aggregate sum of $10,500.-Sprimg-

DEATH IN KICK OF HORSE.

Gustaf E. Bjorklund, one of Nicol-
let county's we'll known farmers, died
as the result of being kicked by a horse
last week. Mr.. Bjorklund had been
blowing in the field all day Saturday
and when evening came he took his
horses to the barn and put them in
their stalls. Being in somewhat of
hurry he did not speak to one of the
horses when he entered it's stall and
when he touched the animal, it be-
came frightened and struck out with
its hoofs. Mr.. Bjorklund was directly
behind the horse, as he thought it was
not vicious. The hoofs struck him in
the upper quadrant of the abdomen,
causing a rupture of the bowels. He
fingered until the following morning,
when he passed away.
The victim of this sad accident was
born in Smalon, Sweden, on Jan. 24th,
1864, and was nearly 81 years of age
at the time of his death.
The funeral was held from the family
home at 2 o'clock Friday afternoon,
with DR.. J. Fremling and Rev. C. B. L.
Boman officiating. Interment was made
in the Swedish Lutheran cemetery at
Norseland.

OUR SHERIFF UNDER ARREST?

According to the St. Peter Herald,
Deputy Game Warden P. J. Karpen
lodged complaints against three New
Ulm men the past week for infractions
of the game laws, all of the offenses be-
ing committed at Swan Lake, and all be-
ing violations of the new law prohibiting
the shooting of ducks from open water.
VIM. Adam was taken before Justice A.
P. Anderson of Nicollet, and fined $40
and costs, amounting to $3.50. On
Monday Deputy Sheriff C. J. Norman
went to New Ulm with warrants for
Sheriff w. J. Julius and Herman ANIME.
The former was out of the county on
official business and will appear later, but
Mr.. ANIME came to St. Peter with the
officer and was arraigned before Justice
f. E. Miller. He entered plea of
not guilty and his hearing was set for
Tuesday. When the case came up
yesterday it was dismissed as the COM
planning witnesses failed to appear.
Sheriff julius says it was all spite WORK.

ARRESTED ON MURDER CHARGE.

Something Of sensation was created
last week when the LIE Sueur county
grand jury returned an Indictment
against DR.. A. A. Duclos of Henderson,
charging him with murder in the first
degree. He was placed under arrest the
latter part of the week and lodged in the
county jail at LIE Sueur Center. The
complaining witness is Mrs. Louis MALI,
divorced wife of farmer. According
to testimony given by the woman the
physician put to death a child born to
Augusta Petersdorf, the alleged crime
having been committed ten years ago.
When arraigned in the district court DR..
Duclos entered a plea Of not guilty.

UP TO THE COUNTY BOARD.

Carlos Avery, State Game and fish
commissioner, was here last Thursday
and met with the county board to learn
the situation concerning the seining
of Lake Shetek this winter. The law
is now such that the matter rests with
the county board whether or not the
county lakes shall be seined. Mr..
Avery suggested that the Board allow
the lake to be seined, and that two
county men and one outsider be given
license, the three men to decide among
themselves the part of the lake each
would sein. The suggestion is good
one and no doubt the commissioners will
act upon it. Murray County Herald.

ANOTHER COMPLIMENT.

The New Ulm Boosters on their
tour to towns over this section of the
state, struck Winthrop about $50
Thursday in good humor and spirits.
Accompanying them was the Second
Regiment Band, and by the way one
of the best bands in the state, who
played a number of choice selections.
The large delegation took supper at
Hotel Setter and that there was a-plenty
to care for of the inner-man desire goes
without saying. New Ulm has a num-
Der of progressive and wide-awake
citizens and the boosters tour adds
another point to their foresight. It was
pleasure for Winthrop to welcome them
and here's hoping they may come our
way again.-Wimtfrop News.

AN ODD TRICK OF FATE.

To be in buggy and to be bumped
along the track in front of freight
engine and finally dumped to one side
OF the track uninjured, while the buggy
was completely demolished, was the
experience of Gustav Clement, employed
by Edward Wing, Friday morning of last
week. Clement had been to the cream
cry in Comfrey and was coming up town.
AS he neared the crossing, F. H. Nichols
was ahead of him with his auto and L. I.
Bean was following. As Mr.. Nichols
approached the crossing of the switch
he observed the way-freight nearing
the depot and turned his car suddenly
to the left toward the Farmers elevator.
Clements horses had become some
what nervous on account of the autos
in front and rear, and when the front
auto turned from the road the team
plunged forward across the tracks. A
strong wind was blowing from the south,
and the side curtains of the single seat
top buggy were drawn, and the driver
who occupied the rig alone, did not see
the train that was upon him. His team
cleared the track, but the buggy was
caught by the pilot of the engine between
the wheels and was pushed along the
track. The horses were not thrown
from their feet, but pulled themselves
loose, and were uninjured. About forty
feet from where the buggy was struck
the seat and top were thrown from the
track, and from this part of the wreckage
Clements came forth naturally surprised
but not even scratched.
About forty feet farther on the wheels
and running gear were dumped from the
track, one wheel being the only part of
the buggy that was not injured. Gle
ment's escape from serious injury or
death was miraculous, and he is credited
with either having a charmed life, or
else of carrying pocket-full of rabbit
feet at the time.
The engineer of the way-freight had
given the usual signal, and was ringing
the bell and slowing down for the usual
stop at the depot. Had the train been
running at greater rate of speed, results
might have been more DISASTROUS
Comtrey Times.

About thirty cars of New Ulmites
arrived here as per schedule at three
o'clock last Thursday afternoon. They
were accompanied by the Second Regi-
ment Band and after playing couple
of selections on the East business street
they marched in body to the West
business street where couple of more
pieces were rendered. There were but
few ladies in the bunch but they say
that next year the feminine sex will not
be left at home when trip of this nature
is made. The people of Fairfax and
rural visitors in town that day en-
joyed very much the visit here of the
New Ulmites; we bid them come again
next year. That New Ulm made friends
by this tour there is no question:

About twenty-five cars of New Ulm
boosters passed through Morgan Thurs
day morning on trade tour. They
brought with them the crack Second
Regiment band which played numerous
selections during the half hour stop of the
visitors. The boosters were not adj
vertising any event but were out getting
acquainted and spreading the gospel of
good fellowship and incidentally i'm
pressing the fact upon the mind of the
public that New Ulm is very much on the
map. The tour had been postponed
once or twice, and then the date set on
short notice, and Morgan was not pre-
pared to entertain them as we would like
to do.-Morgan Messenger.
The tour of New Ulm business men
arrived here Thursday afternoon last
week and spent half an hour mixing
with the business people and residents
of this place. Capt. Steinhauser, editor
of the New Ulm Review, introduced G. A.
Ottomeyer, president of the New Ulm
Commercial Club and prominent mer-
chant of that city, who spoke of the
purpose of the tour and extended a
greeting of good fellowship to the people
here. John w. Book responded to this
speech and welcomed the New Ulmites
to our village and spoke briefly of our
conditions and business activities. The
New Timers must have been hungry
bunch 1--WE do not think it was thirst that
lured them away for they seemed in a
hurry to get to Winthrop where supper
had been ordered. -Gib6om Gazette.

statement goes on. " If our society
can only be preserved by the CONN.,

Evidence of ERA of Peace''
But that is how the Rockefeller
plan-John DIS wonderful indus
trial :democracy''-was tab1isheda in
Colorado. The capitalist press care
fully concealed all that when it was
reporting Rockefeller's noted auto
mobile tour through the mining dis
trict.. One reporter who didn't report
things that ought not have been: re-
ported now has a., good 100000" job
with the Rockefeller interests in Col
orado. VIRTUE brings it's own re-
ward sometimes.s
Fresh interest centers in this
Rockefeller scheme because Just now
thirty-f five men are about to go to
trial in one mining county on charges
growing out of the recent strike. This
{ oesn't look like any letting 14up on
the vengeance policy in Colorado.
This desn't look like any era OF peace
and good will And Just a few days
before 1T was announced that these
trials would go on It was the belief
