Neighbors heard the shot and few
minutes later Nails body was found.

in the oil country is willing to take

Men have been known to walk into a
new oil town with a few hundred
dollars, sometimes less. and in a
short time come out with fortune.

or more Bartlesville men who have
invested there. Two young men

UNION AID SOCIETY GROWS.

The Ladies Aid of the Union Hospital
had very well attended meeting at the
Lutheran school house Monday after
noon. Twenty-six new members were
taken up and the total membership now
aggregates 172. About $125 was paid
out for bills for various furnishings
procured at the hospital since the last
meeting. It was also decided to pur-
chase large electrical toaster. Most
of the afternoon was devoted to a dis
cussion Of the dedication of the hospital
which is to- occur on Decoration Day.
AS Decoration Day falls on Sunday it
has not been fully decided whether to
celebrate on the Saturday previous or
the Monday following. It was, how
ever, decided that on this day the
Ladies Aid will serve dinner, the pro
ceeds to 60 to the hospital. The dinner
will be served at Turner Hall. During
the afternoon of the day ice cream will
be served at the hospital. It was not
fully decided, but it is under considera-
ton to secure large number Of postal
cards Of the hospital which are to be sold
on the day Of the dedication. This
matter was left in the hands Of a com
mittee appointed for that purpose.

WOMEN:s CLUB TAKES UP WORK

Next year the ladies OF the Current
Nesns Club will have charge of the
Lyceum co,urse for New Ulm- For the
past two years this work has been taken
care of by a small number of public
spirited citizens, and the main work has
been done by two or three of the men.
The encouragement and support re-
ceiWed by these men, has been such that
they decided to have nothing further to
do with the Lyce1un course and it was
then that the members of the Current
News Club decided that they should
take up the work. Next years course
will consist OF four numbers. Tickets
for the entire course Will be sold for 81. 90
and the single admission tickets will be
a trife higher in price. TO make the
course less expensive, it has been decided
to have the entertainments held in the
High School Auditorium instead of at
Turner Hall where they have been held
in recent years. This work naturally
belongs to the women's clubs and it is A
good move on their part to assume the
responsibility.

A clever forger got in his work on a
saloon keeper on N. Minnesota Street
last Friday night, and victimized him
to the extent of $780, He gave his
name as Brown and put up for the night
at Mrs. Wilhelmina Books on N.
Minnesota Street. In the evening he
appeared at the saloon of Ben Reinhart
and presented a check drawn to his
order purporting to have been signed
by NJ. E. Schuster, which he wanted
and accommodating. Mr.. Remnant did
not think it necessary to call up Mr..
Schuster and find out whether the check
was genuine, nor did he think it of enough
Importance to question Mr.. Schuster
who came there later in the evening and
it was not until the next day that he
found out that he had been victmaized.
Brown got away on the early morning
train and it is reported that he was
bound for Eagle Lake, Mimi A search
in his room the next day showed that
quite a number of checks had been torn
up by him and on several OF them the
name of M E. Schuster appeared, show
ing conclusively that he had been
practising on Mikes signature. No
trace of the man has been found and he
evidently has made good his escape.

mated that mail order houses have in
the past year drawn more than a hun
dred thousand dollars from New Ulm
and vicinity and said that this estimate
had been made by very conservative
men. His remedy for this condition
would be cooperative buying which
would enable the home merchant to
meet the catalogue prices of the big
city houses. He could not blame
the buyers for wanting to get things
as cheaply as possible and when the mail
order house offered some standard
article at fascinatingly low price,
the average buyer could not know that
the big concern expected to make up
their loss on this article by selling much
other material that would be of inferior
grade and dear at any price. This
statement, Mr.. Retzlaff said, was not
made without authority. This practise
OF the mail order houses is we'll known
and the facts are proven. The following
excerpt from Mr.. Retzlaff's talk sums
up the situation in his own words:
About year ago an eminent professor
of economics, who had made an ex-

PLANS FOR LARGER BUILDING

AT special meeting OF the Lutheran
Church held Sunday afternoon the
tentative plans of the younger members
of the congregation to build a club
house which is to house four bowling
alleys and have room enough for several
billiard tables received the sanction
of this meeting. The original plan for
putting up building 26x110 feet may
undergo considerable change before the
project is finally decided upon.
At this meeting a delegation of the
Ladies' Aid appeared before the meeting
and stated that they were very much
in favor of the proposed club rooms but
they would like to have them build SO
that their society would also find a
home therein. How much the Ladies
Aid can and will contribute to this
project will not be determined for several
days. Upon their decision will depend
largely the plan for the building. If
they will give it the financial support
that is necessary it will mean practically
a two-story building and of larger di-
mensions than the building that had
been proposed so far.
The money for the building as orr
ginally planned amounting to $4,000 has
already been subscribed. An additional
$500 or $4,000 would be necessary to
erect a building that would meet the re-
quirements of the Ladies Aid and until
it is definitely known just how much
additional money can be secured, the
committee in charge will not be able to
decide upon their ultimate plans for
building. The building site has not
been definitely determined upon either.
Negotiations are pending for the pur-
chase of the lot from Mrs. Muske which
is the second lot south from the Lutheran
school. If this cannot be secured then
the building will be erected upon the
lot Immediately south of the schoolhouse
which belongs to the Lutheran congrega-
ton. The size of the building and the
site where it is to be erected will in all
probability be decided upon within the
next two weeks
Otto Pless was elected as delegate to
the synodal conference which meets here
in June.
The committee in charge of the pur-
chase of motor for the church organ re-
ported that the same had been shipped
and that it will be installed within very
few days. The motor cost $4,000 and
this amount was raised by voluntary con-
tributions. Other routine business was
transacted and the meeting adjourned.
