A visiting minister, preaching in a
town famous for it's horse races, vigor-
oulsy denounced the sport. The princi-
pal patron of the church always attended
the races, and of this the clergyman was
later informed.
"Im afraid l touched one of your weak
nesses," said the pastor, not wishing to
offend the wealthy one, "but it was quite
unintentional, I assure you.

The Verdict Of History.

responsibility for this war on his con-
science. l, at least, am not that man.
think history will clear me Of the charge,
although I do not suppose that history
will hold me faultless."
The above statement recently was
made by Emperor William to a prom
inent neutral diplomat in Berlin. The
chronicler adds that the Kaiser Cooked
less worried than many man whose
rent is overdue"
It is an indubitable fact that the great
majority of mankind has considered the
Kaiser primarily to blame for the
European debacle 1t also is easily con-
,ceivable, as the Kaiser himself hopes,
that posterity's verdict may erase the
Indictment against his memory. thine,
the great corrector, where our judg-
ments err, has reversed many other
verdits apparently even more unanimous
Contemporary estimates are VIGOROUSLY
unsound.
Such high-minded patriots as Brutus
thought Julius Caesar a self-seeking
tyrant whose very existence threatened
their republican institutions. Today
the impartial historian in his assassina-
Etion sees setback to civilization.
No doubt neighboring nations deemed
SCharlemagne a blood-crazed conqueror,
but we now know his policies laid the
foundation for future progress.
Less than a century ago today the
first Napoleon was abhorred in England
as the very personifcation of evil held up
as murderer, an ogre, and menace
to mankind. Today the preponderance
of evidence is that his constructive acts
sof domestic policy outweigh the evils
sof warfare in which France was plunged;
sand as to the causes of this very warfare
there is grave question if Napoleon
was not more sinned against than SHINING.
When the violence of present passions
has subsidized, when reconstructed
Europe has recovered from it's calamity,
when society has taken to heart and
profted by the lessons of this conflict,
then, when all the facts are known it is
highly probable that history's verdict
will clear the Kaiser of the damning
accusation now laid at his door.
Certainly the vast currents of racial
.antipathy and commercial competition
that led slowly and surely to this war
of wars were set in motion long before
his birth. The faulty of thinking history

pating. Even he, perhaps the mightiest
of Europe's monarchs, was, after all,
merely a pawn on the chess-board of
.circumstance.-St. Paul Pioneer Press.

HUNTING SEASON SOON TO OPEN
Wild Duck Are Plentiful in Nearbv
Lakes.

season will be formally opened in this
vicinity. On that day the ban will be
raised on the shooting of prairie chicken,
snipe and grouse, except ruffled grouse,
wild duck, geese, and all other aquatic
fowl, except wood duck for three months,
up to the first of December when the
season will again be closed.
It is reported that there are large
numbers of wild ducks to be seen at the
various lakes of this vicinity. There
seems to be a scarcity of prairie chickens,
however. This, no doubt, is due to the
fact that it has been quite wet season
and the young were drowned.
Every person who intends to hunt this
coming season will be required to secure
a license from the county auditor. Last
year was the first time resident hunters
of Minnesota were required to purchase
a license. These licenses must be ex-
hibited to any person upon request.
Being good for only one year and nom
transferable any person caught using
another's license is liable to fine of not
less than $4,000. Anyone who is found
hunting without a license may be called
upon to paya fine of not less than $1,000.
Those who intend to take out license
should make an early application to
avoid any discontinue when the season
opens.
Hunting before sunrise and after
sunset are prohibited by law. The
limit for one days bag is ten birds for
every hunter, while no one is allowed to
have in his possession more than thirty
birds at one time. This applies to all
birds except wild ducks, fifteen being
the limit for one days shoot and forty
five in ones possession at one time.
Woodcock, turtle doves, upland plovers
and wood ducks are protected by law for
the entire year, and this holds good until
September 7th, 1918.
Sink boats, floating batteries, sunker
boxes or floating blinds, etc., or shooting
waterfowl from motor boats or on the
open water outside of the natural growth
of vegetation is, forbidden by law.
1t is also unlawful to kill Shooting
Coots Mud Hens) except during the
open season of game bird hunting. Il
is also unlawful to hunt on any othel
PERSONS land without permission and tt
carry a gun while training dog during
the closed season. The sale of game
birds is prohibited at all times.
The proper observance of our gam
laws will have tendency to conserv'
our supply of wild game and will ais
keep a person from becoming entanglet
in the meshes of the law.
Due, no doubt to the war across tn
Atlantic and the Mexican mix-up, tn
prices on shells have gone up consider
ably. This spring the powder manu-
facturers boosted their prices 10 per cen
and this fall another raise of Is per cen
on smokeless powder and 20 per cent O
black powder went into effect. Metalli
cartridges have also raised in price 2
> per cent.

PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHING
CORPS. ~ ''lfi e

There is always complaint that New
Ulm citizens do not welcome the teachers
who come among us as heartily as we
should. This year there are a great
many new ones and it should be the
resolve OF every one to try to make the
year pleasant for them The following
list of the public school teachers and the
information with regard to their homes
may be of interest and assistance to
those who would perhaps go out of their
way to be nice to the new corners if they
knew little more about them. Last
year teachers were somewhat neglected.
How would it be to make a good resolu-
ton and proceed to carry it out prompt
ly?

COUNTING THE BIRDS.

A census of birds is to be taken all over the country the 1astf of May and first of June by Federal investi- gators. It is believed that by count ing nesting places ,a fairly accurate idea of bird population can be had. If Such a census had been made ten or twenty years ago, it is probable that the 1916 figures would show a large declines.
 The birds are the principal defend CTS of growing crops against pests. But public sentiment has been slow to secure their protection. If a bird serves no visible purpose in the state where he spends part of his life, he is ruthlessly slaughtered for pot pie, regardless of whether he is the saliva ton of the crops in some other state. The migratory bird law giving unf- form protection is yet to be passed on as to constitutionality by the Unit ed States supreme court
 Bird life has many enemies. The ignorant immigrant, regarding this as a free country, joyous1yl gets out with a shot gun and slaughters a dozen or two songsters for luscious dinner. Decadent natives kill them for ship cultured homes roam unrestrained through orchards and lawns, picking up the young that can't fly.
 It seems inconsistent to spend mill lions in teaching the farmer how to raise crops, and next to nothing on saving the birds that are the only sure protection of the crops after they are planted.
 Thus protection of bird life is in tinaately related to cost of living. Food prices will be high>as long as swarnns of insects devastate the fields. This argument should appeal to those who see such questions merely in the light of dollars. But there are many for whom such birds perform other ser vices, and to whom country life with out their cheery songs would seem a. body minus soul.

History Can Repeat Itself.

Some people hold the idea that his tory cannot repeat itself. Right here in Bridgeport, however, that idea is shown to be false.
 The Caesar Misch Stores amply dis prove the old idea with the big values which they are offering at Cheerful Credit Corner this week. Many peo- pie who have bought some very great bargains in the past at this popular store were of the opinion that the Caesar Misch Stores would not be able in the future to offer values as great.
 Now comes the announcement from the Caesar Misch Stores of a sale of big and choice assortments of gar ments for men, women and children. The values that can be secured by forehanded and economically minded people exceed, so the management says, any that they have ever offered in the past.
 That this news will bring the pub lie to the Cheerful Credit Corner to- morrow in great numbers goes all most with out saying. All those who wish to buy some of the striking bar gains offered should make an effort to arrive at this gestore as early as possible in the day although the store assures us that stocks and assort- ments are so enormous that every body is sure of obtaining just the style, color and material they. most prefer.
 One important point that shouldn't be lost sight of is the Caesar -Misch plan of Cheerful Credit to all. This generous method gives anyone the privilege of selecting all the clothes they may need. take them home with out making any deposit and pay for them at the small rate of one dollar a. week.

 Thousands of girls suffer in silence every month rather than consult phy- sician. If girls who are troubled with painful or irregular periods, backache, headache, dragging down sensations, fainting spells or indigestion would take Lydia B.

~@~S TODAY'S POEM
A RHYME OF EYES.
O~~~~~~~

Blue eyes for summer,
 When all the world is glad: - And feathered singers warble, And trees are green1y clad. To labor with, to long with,
 To smile-to weep-tO woo, And close, like any blossom,
 When all Iife's work is through Brown eyes for autumn,
 When on the fallen flowers And unresisting grasses
 The leaves descend in showers; Not somiber eyes but sober,
 Eefecting love that's true, Blind to life beauty only
 When all 1ife's work is through. Gray eyes are for winter,
 The silence and the snow When winds are keen and cruel, And clouds are dull and low. They see the rified branches,
 The frost upon the lane, And sorrow for a, summer
 That will not come again.
 Arthur Goodenough.
