CHICKEN THIEF LEAVES a
FAT PURSE IN HEN HOUSE

The story of a careless chicken thief
comes to New Ulm from farm not far
from this city, in which the robber paid
dearly for his poultry, and made a
desperate effort to get his money back,
but without avail. It is said that man
appeared at the home of well-to-do
farmer one morning and inquired of the
farmers wife:
"Have you any chickens for sale?'t
mo, we haven't was the reply.
"Well, am very anxious to buy few
chickens, and l would like to look your
flock over and see what you have" said
the man. Il am willing to pay we'll for
Them
"You are too late," said the woman.
"We sold all of ours last night and got a
good price for them.'
The man went away, apparently crest
fallen.
1t appears that a thief, the night be-
fore, had entered the hen house and
carried away several of the choicest of
the farmers hens. In doing so he had
dropped pocketbook, containing $50.
Chief of Police John Herzog says
that no chicken robberies have been
recently reported in the city, but he
hears many reports of marauders in
various parts of the county.

INDIAN MONUMENT
REMOVAL PLANNED
PARK BOARD NOW CONSIDERING
PETITION or STATE STREET
RESIDENTS
CLAIMED THOROUGHFARE AT
PRESENT LOCATION MUCH
TOO NARROW

Plans to move the Indian monument
from it's present place at the intersection
of Center and State streets, to point
midway between Washington and State
streets, is being considered by the Board
of Park Commissioners. The plan was
brought up by residents of State street,
and committee appointed to take the
matter up with the proper authorities.
A meeting of the park board will be held
some time this week, when decision
is expected to be reached.
Street Too Narrow.
The chief objection to the present
location of the monument is that the
space which it occupies is too narrow,
subjecting autoists and others driving
vehicles, to danger of accident.
1t is proposed to narrow State street
it's entire length some four feet, which
if done, will make the crossing, with
the monument in its present location
almost impossible, advocates of it's re-
moval claim.
Center street, between the court
house and the high school, is exception
ally wide, giving plenty of room for a
wide thoroughfare on either side of the
monument.
Removal of the monument was dis
cussed two years ago, and the question
was before the park board at that time,
but dragged along for some time and
was finally allowed to drop.
t'The monument will be only short
distance above it's present location, and
will be in as slightly place as now -
said one of the park commissioners. IF
State street is narrowed as is now pro-
posed there will be all sorts of trouble
and it seems to me about the only thing
to do is to move it. OF course if there
are any objections offered they will be
carefully considered before any action
is taken"
Opposed to Moving.
While there are many people who be-
lieve that <the monument should be
moved, others are opposed to the plan.
1T made me sad when read there
was plan under way to move the monu-
ment, said R. Pfefferle, an old resident
of the city. IF they want the monu-
ment moved let them wait until the last
defender is gone. When the monument
was erected in 1890 we held public
meeting to decide on it's location. 1t
was the expressed wish of the defenders,
after several places had been considered,
that the shaft be placed at the inter-
section of Center and State streets and
there it was erected. I say wait until
the old fellows are gone and then let
them put it wherever they want to-

WILL DRAIN TIMBER LAKE.

Commissioners of Nicollet county have
decided to drain Timber lake, six miles
west OF St. Peter, and have called for
bids to carry out the project. The
expense has been estimated at about
$4,000.
1t is claimed that several square miles
OF fine farming land will be reclaimed.
Agitation for the draining of Swan
lake, thus securing many thousands of
acres of land, is also under way.

LECTURER MISSES TRAIN.

Nellie M. Zeh, who was scheduled to
deliver a Socialist lecture at Schell's
hall, last Thursday, failed to arrive and
the meeting was called off. While on
her way from the northern part of the
state her trains failed to make con-
nections and Miss Zeh was unable to
reach New Ulm on that night.
Arrangements for a future lecture
have not yet been made
