AS to Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe,
this good woT an owned home in
Florida and was very much respected.
Could she have rewritten Uncle
Toms Cabin. in all probability the
story would have been very much
modified. Her brother, Rev. Chas.
Beecher lived in Florida also. He
was member of the school board ana
learned to love the southern people.
OF the governors of Florida since
the war between the states five were
of northern birth. So we are not so
very narrow.
1t occurs to me, and it seems to me
it should occur to every one that the
conduct of the South in the Spanish
American war and in the Great
World war, should put to shame those
who would accuse it of, disloyalty.
The republican party going before
the people in this campaign as alone

an insult to those brave southern lads
who sleep beneath the soil of France

this entertainment for the benefit Of the

The title Of the pictures is E"The

great interest to the merchants and

should receive favorable consideration
from the business man is the value Of

*. Money Contributions Only. =
For the present, the efforts of the
New Ulm Relief Society for German
and Austrian Children will be directed
solely towards the collection of money.
This is explained by the fact that the
society works in connection with the
Minnesota Committee. for the Relief
of German Children, with Offices at
1873 Fifth So. street, Minneapolis, and
with the well-known American Friends
Service Committee. The latter cstab-
ished a number of depots in European
cities like Hamburg, Vienna and Buda-
pest, which serve as distributing points
of food stuffs sent across for this pur-
pose. Donors of larger amounts may
designate certain cities CT villages whose
children they wish to be benefited by
their contributions.

and knitting work done by several

will be continued. ~. az a.

CONSECUTIVE TIME AT

For the fourth consecutive time tie
New Ulm high school basket ball team
will represent the eleventh district in
the state tournament at Mortified,
which will be held tomorrow,
Thursday and Friday The local
quint will have to contest with Is other
teams from all over the state for the
state championship. 1t will be re-
membered that last year at Mortified
the local boys had the distinction Of
being the second best team in the
state, having been victorious in all
preliminary contests Of the tournament.
But the honor Of having the best team
in the district is considerable and is
very much appreciated by the local fans.
Play Fast Game.
The winning game which put the
local quint at the top of all the teams
in the district was played at Lamberton,
last Friday Minneota, the opposing
! team, was in fine trim, but although,
in the words Of their superintendent,
they put up their best game OF the
season, they were unable to down the
New Ulm boys. The latter already have
played a better gan e during the season.
in the opinion of Superintendent Hess,
but they were still strong enough to
carry off the laurels. Minneota's large
| number OF rooters-in a special train con-
sisting OF three passenger cars and
one baggage car they brought over more
than 200 of them-could not scare the
( local quint and so they played a steady
game through to final victory The
score at the end Of the game was 81 to
rs in favor of New Uln
The local stars of the game were
Oscar Esser andssHarry Shapiro Both
were in good form and made the most
baskets for the New Ulm team. In this
connection, it might be recalled that
last year in the deciding game between
New Ulm and Lakefeld Oscar Esser
made fourteen baskets for the New ulm
team.
Superintendent Swanson of Confrey
was referee during the game last Fri
day, while Prof F. H. Ward of the
Mankato Commercial College acted as
umpire.
