NEW DENTAL FIRM

Two new men have entered the pro-
fessional field in New Ulm recently.
They are Drs. Davies and Davies, both
dentists, and they have. rented suitable
offices above the Merchants & Farmers
State Bank. The two doctors are broth
ers and were formerly located at Omaha,
Neb. They have all the modern dental
equipment and as the wife of one of the
gentlemen is also dentist they are pre-
pared to meet all emergencies. The field
in New Ulm offers opportunities at the
present time for the new firm since sew
eral of the former practising dentists
are away on duty with the United States
Armies and the remaining four dentists
were overcrowded with work. By the
time the soldiers come back the city
will probably have grown so that there
will be work for all.

People were killed on each day Of the
shelling, but no great number. Later,
on Good Friday, the German god Of
war reaped a greater benefit. We had
left the city by that time, but we were
told in London that the Is persons killed
in certain church had not been killed
by the explosion Of the shell that hit
the church. The diameter of the shell
sent was figured at nine inches, that
conclusion having been reached by COM
pleting a circle from fragments OF the
shell. The weight was estimated at
more than 800 pounds. When that
shell came down it's 20 miles and hit
the roof of the church, it broke beam
and caused large part of the roof to-
cave in, killing rs persons and injurlng
more than 100.

SCHOOL ELECTIONS IN OTHER
-@.r PLACES

Other communities in the neighbor-
hood of New Ulm also had spirited school
elections, a week ago, Saturday. At
Sleepy Eye 306 votes were cast. The
regular candidates were W. Il. Hodges
and A. r. Kelm who had filed to succeed
themselves for a three year term. and
Albert Hauser who had filed to succeed
DR.. A. F. Strickler. Stickers had been
printed with the name of DR.. VIM. F..
Rounds placed against Mr.. Hodges while
it was intended by interested parties that
either Mrs. Strickler or Mrs. Bingham
was to be run against Mr.. Kelm. The
ladies in charge of the candidacy of Mrs.
Bingham and Mrs. Strickler evidently
got their wires crossed and as a result
both lost out by this lack of political
experience. Albert Hauser was elected
to the one year term, receiving 2O2 votes.
Hodges received 144 votes and DR..
Rounds 1913. The other votes were as
follows: Mrs. A. F. Strickler 109, Mrs.
r. H. Bingham, 102, A. R. Kelm 49 and
F. w. Meyer 18. .,,,
Stickers proved effective also in the
St. Peter election where N. H. Olsen won
out over DR.. O. J. Johnson of Gustavus
Adolphus College with a majority of
300 for the one year term. The other
regular candidates, Mrs. Bertha Weibe-
zahn and Philip Dick, were elected by
even bigger majorities, Mrs. Weibezahn
receiving 5O7 votes and Philip Dick 474.
The other candidates were DR.. Merton
Field who received ISL votes and G.. H:
Towley who received 140 votes. A
total of $40 votes were cast.

THAT LONG RANGE GUN
(Continued from 1st page)

above the clouds; out of reach OF French
airplanes, but the regularity OF the
explosions soon set that thought aside.
Then pieces Of the flying missiles were
found, which disclosed the fact that shells
and not bombs were being used-shells
that had been sent long distance"from
a gun.
The thought that perhaps a traitor
had permitted a German gun to get
through the lines and shell Paris from a
distance of 20 miles was being discussed,
when the prime minister came out with
the statement that the Germans had IN
vented long range gun and were send
ing shells.ant osPaSis from distance OF
at least 62s.milless.:,sas,' ~
"An alibi for not being able to locate
the German airplanes," said an American
newspaper correspondent.
Don't you think it," said another
who was just in from the front, and
who had observed cannon fire much OF
the time since the beginning OF the war.
The argument continued until an ar
tillery expert entered and proved to his
own satisfaction and the satisfaction OF
some of the others that it was absolutely
impossible to send shell 81 miles. But
the shells kept on coming.
The next morning in one branch OF
the American military service, was
told that the gun had been located
back of the German lines; that the shells
were being sent 20 miles in the air,
coming all that distance and dropping
on the city; that the department was
being telephoned every time the gun
was fired, and that the shells were drop
ping every Is minutes. One could hold
his watch and listen, and the bang would
come in the Is minutes, almost to a
second.
Then toward noon Gt was on Sunday
the shells began to drop every seven and
a half minutes. The Germans were
evidently using two guns, alternating
in the fire. After lunch, the intervals
again were Is minutes, and it was con-
cluded that the first gun had become too
hot to fire, and that the Germans were
finishing out the days entertainment
with the second gun. The firing ended
at $40 o'clock.
We went about the city that afternoon
to observe the effect of the shelling on
the French people.
1t was a spring-like day. The people
thronged the boulevards and the main
streets. There we're many in the wide
streets. They sat about the tables. In
front of the restaurants. Some talked
seriously about it, others were puzzled,
while still others joked.,

PAL MOORE TO
AID CH|CAG|AN
Stablemate of Burman Will
Be In Corner at Battle
Tomorrow Night.

Baltimore. Dec. 25.-Joe Burman, the
clever young Ck<ago bantam, who is
to box Eddie Wimler. of Pittsburgh.
at Albaugh's Theater tomorrow night.
arrived here last evening and an
nounced that Pal Moore, his stable
mate, probably would second him in
his bout Tom Walsh, who handles
both Burman and Moore, sent Joe on
alone, while he jouTneyed to New
York to get Pal, who recently re-
turned to this country from England,
where he proved the sensation of the
International boxing bouts by beat
ing Jimmy Wilde, the most popular
pugilist in Englnd.
Burman said he was not sure Moore
would be at the rigside. but felt that
Pal would come over If Walsh could
arrange the trip. Moore still is at
taChed to the Great Lakes Naval
Training Station.
While most Of the stars of the army
and navy went abroad TO represent
Uncle Sam in the international bouts
Pete Herman. the bantam champion.
remained at home and this gave Bur-
man an opportunity to interview the
title-holder. He did not wait for his
manager to ask the New Orleans Ital-
ian for a chance at the crown. but
left Hog Island on an errand of his
own and met the champion.
Il went to the hotel where Herman
is stopping" said Burns, land
waited around until | met him. FL
nalIy. | cornered him on the street.
and after the usual greeting. I asked
him when he intended giving me a
crack at the title. He told me he
81 in tho hut that
as ne was free he would give me a
bout"
While Burman is very young he
is quite polished boxer and can hit.
He hopes to win the championship,
but his stablemate has the same am
bition. However. Joe and Pal will not
quarrel about that. The former
knows he still is quite young and that
few 15-round battles will give him
good experience, so Moore's claim may
be pushed front. His victory over
Wilde makes him the more prominent
at least in the eyes of the public.
If Moore comes here he will receive
a great reception. for Baltimoreans
followed his fights in England They
were pleased with his victory because
he made good their predictions. Most
of the local fight fans are aware that
Pal is very light-a legitimate ban
tam. in fact-and that he is about the
hardest man to hit in the ring.
Burman is almost as popular. be-
cause his splendid bout with Young
Clancy and his knockout of Young
Mendo are green in the memories of
the ringsiders. Burman packs a dead
ly punch which is liable to end any
bout abruptly. His setto with VIM
Ter will be the longest he ever was
billed for. 1t is to be for twelve
rounds.
The appearance of Moore in the ring
tomorrow night would add to the at
Effectiveness of the show. but 1t seems
that Young CLANCY. one of Baltimore's
own, is almost sure to reach this city
in time to eat his Christmas dinner.
There will be a royal welcome for
Andy, for he, too, made good in the
London ring
