YOUTH SUSTAlNS
SERIOUS BURNS
ALB. SCHOBERT, EAGLE MILL
EMPLOYE, POURED OIL
INTO BOILER.
FLAMES BURN SKIN ON FACE
AND ARMS. TAKEN TO
LOCAL HOSPITAL.

Albert Schobert, aged 20, son OF
Mrs. Barbara Schobert residing on
South Front street, is at the Loretto
Hospital, suffering intense pain as the
result of a distressing accident that
occurred in the boiler room at the
Eagle mill, about 1880 O'clock yester-
day morning. While his injuries are
quite serious, the attending physician
entertains hopes for the young mans
ultimate recovery, but it may prove
necessary to resort to skin grating,
should the tissues be destroyed IN
consequence of the severe burns which
he received. -
Poured Oil on Fire.
Young schobert entered the boiler
room with a pail of waste oil, and be-
fore any of the men present had time
to warn him, opened the fire door
and poured the oil over the live Goals.
The resulting flames, escaping through
the open door, enveloped the un-
fortunate youth, who sustained serious
burns about the face and on both
arms up to the elbows. His hair was
burned off around the bottom Of his
cap, and but for this protection he
! might have been deprived of all of his
hair. He was Immediately taken tc
the hospital and local physician
was summoned who did everything
possible to alleviate the excrusicating
pain.

EARLY MORNING BLAZE
DAMAGES WAGON SHOP.
Fire Of Mysterious Origin CAUSES
$500 Loss in Henry Krieger's
f. Establishment

Had it not been for it's timely dis
covery, blaze mysterious that origin
ated IN the wagon shop at the rear Of
Henry Krieger's blacksmith shop on
North Broadway, early Thursday
morning, would have threatened the
entire building with distinctions As
1T was. damage amounting to about
$500 resulted before the fire could be
extinguished.
While Joseph Teynor, Jr., one Of
the proprietors of the New Ulm Candy
Kitchen, was going home along Broad
way, after closing his place Of business
at about 2 o'clock that morning, he
noticed bright light in the wagon
shop. The unusual hour prompted
him to investigate, and he noticed,
by looking into one Of the windows,
that the interior was ablaze.
Mr.. Teynor awakened Mr.. Krieger,
who resides in the Frank Niemann
dwelling alongside the blacksmith and
wagon shop, and together they en-
tered the burning building, The fire
was confined to one corner, where the
electric motor was located, but was
spreading rapidly and would no doubt
soon have enveloped the entire struct-
ure,s had it not been discovered in
time.
Frank Niemann, Jr., Otto Niemann,
Jack Forster and Roman Brust, mem
bers Of the local Fire Department
who sleep in the firemen's quarters in
the municipal building, adjoining the
blacksmith shop, were called and as
sisted in extinguishing the fire. i
The origin of the blaze is mystery.
1t is presumed that defective electric
wiring may have been the cause. The
contents of the wagon shop was not
insured.

FORD BATTLES WITH
SILENT POLICE, SCHOOL
SIGN, HYDRANT.

Two automobile accidents that
might have resulted disastrously for
three persons, occurred in this city
between 8 o'clock Thursday evening
and o'clock Friday morning. Ali
of the three cars concerned were
Fords. AS consequence Of the first
maladventure, the silent policeman
which admonishes motorists to keep
to the right at the corner Of State and
Fifth North streets, was put out OF
commission and the "slow down.
school sign and the fire hydrant at
the same corner met similar fate,
while the henry was not damaged
sufficiently to put it out of the running
In the other accident, collision be4
tween two fivvers, young lady was
rendered unconscious for a short time
and both lizzies were damaged more
or less. .as aa&a 81
Girl Rendered Unconscious.
While .'Big Bill''' Pfeiffer was re-
turning home from the Thanksgiving
dance and hasenpfeffer lunch at Turner
Hall with his daughter, Alice, shortly
before 8 o'clock Friday morning, a
Ford car, standing in front of the curb
at Gust. Becker's restaurant on South
Minnesota street, suddenly backed
up, without warning, a few feet IN
front Of the Pfeiffer sedan, making 1t
impossible for Bill to stop in time to
prevent collision. The sedan
sheered the left rear wheel from the
Madelia car and then laid over on its
side. Miss Pfeifer was rendered ua- 1a-
conscious for some 20 minutes, but
received no injuries. AS through a
miracle, none of the glass windows
in the Pfeiffer sedan were broken,S but
the fabric top was torn somewhat.
The Madelia car was occupied by
HI. J. Nielsen and A. III. Scharbach OF
that village. ....... ......
Ford Car. on. Rampage.
A Ford car belonging to Gustav
Haas Jr.,. Of this city ran arnuck at
the corner of State and Fifth North
streets, Thursday evening at about
$50 o'clock. The first object en-
countered by the rampageous henry
was the "silent policeman in the
center of the street intersection. Ihls
ssimpediment'' was overcome IN
twinkling and the fivver made bee
line for the fire hydrant and the
"slow down. school sign on the same
corner. The hydrant was broken OH
by the force Of, the impact, but the
car wasn't stopped until it had strad-
died the school sign, the upper part

OF thls city, as. a monster rabbit drive
y planned for that day. It is pro-
posed to organize four teams with
about Is hunters and beaters each,
which will 60 IN different directions to
the haunts of the willy cottontalls
and the big jack rabbits. The nin-
rods will gather at the New Ulm
Armory and the start for the hunt will
be made at about 10 o'clock in the
morning. All those who delight IN
rabbit hunt are urged to be on hand
in time. They should not fail to re-
port to the committee at once.
The committee appointed at recent
meeting of the Council to make the
necessary preparations for the big
rabbit drive, is now busy formulating
plans and ascertaining the secluded
haunts of their quarry. The members
of the committee are: Joseph B.
Groebner, chairman, Ed. J. Berg,
Albert D. Flor and William Lieb.
These gentlemen will meet some time
this week to complete the final ar
rangements for the drive.

1t is the aim to secure sufficient funds
$50 that at least a million can be fed
daily and that the work can be ex--
tended to Austria where it is even more
imperative than in Germany. It is
planned to get all those who are IN
terested in this relief Work to pledge
certain amount a month until June
1921 It is hoped that by that time,
Germany and Austria will be able to
take care of themselves. What makes
it bad this year is the fact that Ger
many only produced IS percent OF the
food necessary, where before the war
they raised as high as 80 per cent OF
their requirements. =
Red Cross Is P PARTIAL
Albert Steinhauser presided at the
meeting and introduced the speaker.
He spoke briehy1in German, explain
ing the work that is being done by the
American Relief Administration. He
also read from report showing the
large number of undernourished child
rem in Germany, the number Of cases
of tuberculosis and rickets, due to
undernourishment, and the prevalence
of scroftila ana other skin diseases due
| to a lack Of soap and hot water. He
also mentioned that if reports that
came in were true the American Red
Cross was showing great deal q
tpartiality in the matter Of the reliei
work done by them and that practical.
ly no succor and aid was given to the
Soviet Republic of Russia. This, he
said, was wrong and against the tradi
tions of this benevolent organization
and he urged Immediate action so thai
the Red Cross woufd not fall in dis
repute.
