STRANGERS MADE WELCOME.

The social gathering at the Congre-
gational Church last Friday evening
was decided success, and the strangers
within our gates" took most kindly to it,
there being more of them present than
of the regular church people. All the
teachers and the other many new people
now located here turned out in full force
and everybody seemed to have lot of
fun. Rev. Wheeler addressed the as
sembly in little talk of greeting and
short program consisting of a vocal
duet by Mrs. J. R. Higgs and Mrs. Min
ium, vocal solo by Mrs. E. Week, a
piano duet by Mrs. E. Haeberle and Miss
Ruby Schaull, and solo by Mr.. E..
Stoll, was enjoyed by all. The rest of
the evening was spent playing games.
A Cafeteria" supper was served by the
guests marching in single file to the
dining room, each being given tray
which they carried back with them to
the parlors where the good things to eat
were much enjoyed. The parlors of the
church had been fitted up to resemble
home living rooms as much as possible
and bowls of flowers added to the cheer
and beauty that made all feel welcome
and at home. It was remarked that the
affair seemed like one of the good old
time "sociables" of a by-gone day.

RECEIVERS DAMAGES.

Monday Judge Olsen filed an order,
directing that judgment be entered in
favor OF Joseph Roth, against Anton
Brand and the United States Casualty
Co., allowing the plaintiff $500 week
indemnity for injuries received Dec.
23rd, 1914, such indemnities to be paid
for period of time not exceeding 800
weeks, making it practically 6 years.
1t will be remembered that on Dec.
23rd, 1914 Mr.. Roth was injured at
Anton Brands sawmill in the town of
Home by log falling on his leg, break
ing both bones of the lower right leg.
He was Immediately taken to the Lo-
retto hospital where he stayed for %
weeks. The Casualty Co. paid Roth
at the rate of $500 week for 81 weeks
when they suddenly stopped making
payment on the pretext that Roth had
sufficiently recovered to be able to go to
work. Suit followed which was heard
before Judge Olsen September Oath and
it developed the trial that the injuries
received by the plaintiff would be per-
manent in his present condition and that
he would be unable to do any heavy
work. It seems that the ends of the
bones have not grown together. An
operation which would lay him for up a
year might produce complete recovery.
Nothing will prevent the defendant
however from making application to the
Court to have the order modified if it
should appear at any time that the
plaintiff has recovered from his injuries.

ARRESTED FOR NON-SUPPORT

Last Friday night Night Police John
Herzog and Deputy Sheriff Herman
Jahnke went to Peter Dorn's place at
West Newton and took into custody
Christ Lathrop who is wanted in the
state of Wisconsin for non-support
and violating his parole. His year
old son was with him and he was brought
to New Ulm also and Chief of Police
O'Hara of Kenosha who had come here
with requisition papers took Mr.. Lathrop
back to Kenosha Saturday morning on
the early train.
Lathrop was first arrested at VIM.
Sommerfeld's near Sleepy Eye by Chief
of Police Chas. Black week ago Thurs
day on the strength of "a telegram re-
ceived from the Police at Kenosha.
Friday an officer arrived at Sleepy Eye
to take the prisoner back to Wisconsin.
Lathrop was willing to 60, provided they
would take his son along, but this the
officer refused to do and then Lathrop
sought counsel and retained the services
Of Attorney Albert Hauser of Sleepy
Eye. At the hearing held before Judge
Cutting demand was made for requisi-
ton papers and the hearing adjourned
until Monday, October 4th, the prisoner
being remanded to the County jail in
default of bail. Last Wednesday evening
habeas-corpus proceedings were held
before Court Commissioner Albert D.
Flor of this city and he held that there
was not sufficient evidence to warrant
retaining the prisoner in Jail, allowed
the writ and discharged the defendant
from custody. Deputy Sheriff Jahnke
Immediately notified the Kenosha autho-
rites that Lathrop had been released and
at the same time kept in touch with the
whereabouts of Lathrop, SO that when
the Chief of Police put in his appearance
here with the requisition papers he would
be able to take his man into custody.

! DIFFERENCE OF OPINION.

Here's two automobile owners who
differ quite decidedly as to who is to
blame for the collision that smashed a
fender for one of the cars and lamp for
the other. And the sad part of the affair
is that both drivers were attempting to
stick to the law of the road as they under
stood it.
Ed. Laudenschlager who lives on South
Broadway was coming South on Mime
sofa street about five o'clock Saturday
afternoon, approaching First North
Street crossing. At the same time
Ernst Strelow and his son, the latter
driving, were driving north on Mime
sofa Street, approaching the same cross
ing, but proceeding in opposite direc-
ton. Both men were on the right side
of the street and one would naturally
suppose that collision would be UNI
likely to occur. But Mr.. Strelow in
tended to 60 west on First North Street
and accordingly the driver turned the
car in that direction, bringing it at right
angles to the Laudenschlager machine.
From there on the account is tangled.
Mr.. Strelow claims that Laudenschla-
ger should have slackened speed sufi-
GENTLY to allow the Strelow car to
pass safely in front of him and Mr..
Laudenschlager claims he had right
of way down Minnesota street and Mr..
Strelow should have passed behind him
instead of going in front. Mr.. Strelow
expects Mr.. Laudenschlager to pay
the damage to both cars, and Mr.. Lau-
denschlager thinks it quite sufficient
If he pays for the broken lamp his car
sustained. Mr.. Strelow Is, o resident
Of that portion Of the city near Schells'.

DRY GOODS TAKEN
BY BOLD THIEVES
BLUE EARTH CITY MERCHANTS
SUFFER HEAVY LOSSES FROM
GANG.
NEARLY EVERY TOWN ALONG
LINE HAS BEEN VISITED BY
CRIMINALS.

One of the largest and boldest store
robberies that have taken place in this
vicinity took place at Blue Earth
Wednesday night, when the Pace Bros.
Clothing store in that city, was entered
and between fifteen hundred and two
thousand dollars worth of mechandise
taken.
The robbery was not discovered until
Thursday morning, when one of the
clerks arrived and found the rear doors
open. Entrance had evidently been
secured by breaking the glass in the rear
door and then reaching in and unlocking
the door.
An investigation revealed that forty
three suits, large number of over coats,
large quantity of neckwear, nearly all
the fine gloves, as well as large quantities
of other lines of mems clothing had been
taken. Some fifteen or twenty satchels
and suit cases were also missing.
The suits and over coats taken were
of the best and most high priced that
were carried in stock. The same was
true in regard to other lines of goods
taken, which would indicate that the
robbery was committed by men familiar
with the value of the different grades of
clothing and who had also familiarized
themselves with the store, and knew in
117ho+ y,or+ of Tho c%oro 4ho host 1;noe ,f
goods were kept.
One satchel had been left, in the store,
which had been packed so full of clothing
that the side had burst open, and had
consequently been left behind by the
robbers.
It is evident that the suits, overcoats,
gloves and other articles taken had been
packed into the satchels and suit cases,
and then carried out, by the rear doors,
and through the alley to place of hiding
or to some auto, that was in waiting.
Sheriff Freer was notified, and made
close examination Of the store but so
far as has been learned no clues were left
behind. 1t is generally believed that the
stolen goods were conveyed that night
to some nearby town and hidden and will
be gradually removed later.
1t is generally believed that there is a
we'll organized gang which may include
in it's membership proprietors of stores
in large distant cities to whom the stolen
goods are shipped. A number of dry
goods and clothing stores have been
robbed within a year in this and adjoin-
ing states. Winthrop, Gibbon, Fairfax,
St. Peter, Springfield and New Ulm have
all been visited during the past summer
by gang of silk-thieves and the situation
is really becoming serious. The police
who run down these fellows will be doing
dry goods merchants or burglary in
surance companies very good turn.

JUNIOR PIONEERS

ANNIVERSARY OF ARRIVAL. OF
FIRST SETTLERS WILL BE
OBSERVED
BANQUET AT TURNER HALL,
FOLLOWING MOVING PIC
TURE SHOW

From present indications the annual
banquet for the Pioneers and Junior
Pioneers which will be held at Turner
Hall tomorrow Thursday evening viii
be as pleasant an affair as the one last
year and that was voted huge success
Fifty-four of the old folks have promised
to come; that means that practically all
of those who participated in the Indian
Massacre will be on hand for the cele-
bration. Only small number on
account of feebleness and other physical
and mental ills cannot be present. This
day is the old folks day and they all
look happily forward to the time when
they are the guests of the Junior Pioneers.
This banquet has been arranged for
the purpose of celebrating the 61st
anniversary of the arrival of the first
settlers here. They came here October
z, 1854 and spent the first winter in
deserted Indian Tepees in the Town Of
Milford. There were over 80 in this
party. OF this number only two sur
vive, Peter Mack of Milford and Mrs
Hembsch of St. Paul.
The committee in charge of this event
feel highly grati6ed at the response on
the part of the pioneers, but the Junior
Pioneers have not come forward as
heartily as the committee had right
to expect. This is the day when the
Junior Pioneers entertain the old folks
who came here as early as 1854 and who
have done the initial work in developing
this beautiful section of the State and
all Of the Junior Pioneers without ex-
ception who live in New Ulm and terri
tory Immediately tributary thereto
should be on hand tomorrow evening to
do honor to these people. They should
consider it an honor to sit down at the
banquet table with the old folks and
privilege to act in the capacity of hosts
to them.
The old folks are expected to assemble
in the lecture room about o'clock in the
afternoon and the first hour will be spent
in social converse. As part of the after
Moons program there will be instrumen-
tai and vocal music. Miss Frances
Krook and the Misses Marti have CON
sented to sing several songs. It is alse
planned to have victrola at the han
as part Of the musical entertainment.
Albert Steinhauser, President of the
Junior Pioneers, is down for short talk
to the Pioneers. There will also be two
motion picture reels.
The banquet will be served promptly
at 6 o'clock. While the banquet is in
progress, music will be furnished by
Capt. YOUNGSTERS Juvenile Orchestra
Prof. Herman Helm will act as toast
master and among those who will speak
are Mayor L. A. Fritsche, Peter Mack
and Mrs. Josephine Zieher. There NAV
be additional numbers. Last year the
program proved rather long and became
somewhat firing for the old folks and for
that reason the list of speakers has beer
reduced to minimum.
After the banquet is over, the Junior
Pioneers will hold their annual meeting
at which time officers will be elected for
the ensuing year. Other matters d
general interest will come up and every
Junior Pioneer should be on hand for the
meeting even if he should have been I'M
able to attend the banquet.

JONES HEARD FROM | AZ TER SIX MONTHS Tennessee Postmaster, Who Is Father of IA, Gives Second Report

Mir. R. L. Jones, who for IS years has been postmaster and railroad agent lat Brunswick, Tenn, and who has the |proud distinction of being the father |of IA children, gave the following in-
 terview while in Memphis recently.
 You remember my giving you a
 statement sometime last August. l want Ito say to you now that in that state
 ment I did not give all the credit which Twas due Vitalitas. I now know that AVitalitas is the greatest medicine I lhave ever seen or heard of. Prior to inly taking it I was all down and out. thaving stomach troubles so acute that 4my one desire was to die; but I tell 3you right now l am as good man as n was at 40 and at that age I was lin my prime. am now 73 years and lam the father of IA and feel as good land healthy today, thanks to Vital
 itas, as I have ever felt. All my stom- tach trouble is gone and I feel fine. I 4carrot say too much for Vitalitas.'
 Not only for stomach disorders is {vitdlitas wonderfully effective, but for 2ills of liver, kidneys, bowels and blood. 5Its tonic and corrective effects are marvellous and the results obtained Ifrom it are constitutional rather than Temporary. Marvellous cures are con istantly being reported from it's use.
 ! Make it a point to see the display
 and sample Vitalitas at Ayeryts drug
 store. 109-111 goth st, or write there
