Miss Hoffman recently. and Ger

they must be natural dancers. Rus

q foolhardy waste Of time 20 think
of congress doing anything similar;
and yet Il viii come.
America is naturally artistic. We
all love beautiful things but we are
such a young country that il has
been inevitable that we organize
ourselves in the more practical
things than dancing or any other
OF the arts. ] believe the time will
come at a not very distant date
when the government of the United
States viii see fit to give encourage

giving them the necessary training
20 give the American ballet its foot

ROBERT B. MANTELL.

Robert b. ManteH. who plays a
three day enga cement in Shakes
pearean repertoire at the Oliver
opera house starting tomorrow
night, has always had a soft spot
for South Bend. II was here on
oct. 18th. 1901. that he gave his first
performance Of Richard III. This
play afterwards was the vehicle
with which he electrified New York
and established himself as an avow-
ed classic star. While Mr.. Mantell
does not include il in the list OF
plays presented here. IL is still one
OF his repertoire and has been ever
since its initial presentation. Dur
ing the engagement in this city he
will appear in the title role in
"Richelieu." Monday, Macbeth, .
Tuesday and as Brutus in Julius

DEFINITE STEPS
TAKEN FOR WELL
CONTRACT LET FOR DIGGING
NEW DEEP WELL FOR
CITY SUPPLY.
j. C. ROBERTSON OF ST, PAUL
WILL HAVE FORCE OF
MEN HERE TODAY.

At the adjourned meeting OF the
Council held at the Council Chambers
last Friday evening, the contract for
the new deep we'll and the pump
equipment was awarded. This was the
third meeting held in which this mat
ter was discussed. There were no less
than eight bidders and each of the
bidders had several different PROPOSE
tions so that the City Council was
really forced to pass upon eighty diff
ferent bids. One of the bidders alone
had submitted twenty-five different
propositions. ~.
Robertson Gets Contract.
The contract for the we'll and also
the equipment was awarded to J. G.
Robertson of St. Paul. He is to re-
ceive SIS foot for a sixteen inch well.
1t is estimated that the we'll must be
between ESQ and 800 feet to secure
the necessary water supply.
Price Depends On Results
For the pump equipment the sue
cessful bidder is to receive. $4831 if
the water flow is 800 gallons per min
ute, $4979 for flow of 400 gallons
per minute and $5O71 for a pump e.
quipment to take care of 500 gal
Ions per minute flow. One of the
bidders had guaranteed 800 gallon
flow per minute for a Is inch we'll,
400 gallons for 20 inch we'll and 500
gallons for "a inch well.
1t is possible however to secure as
high as 500 gallons per minute flow
in 16 inch well and for that reason
the size of pump equipment will not
be definitely settled until the we'll is
completed. The pump equipment to
be installed is centrifugal pump,
commonly known as the turbine and
booster pump.
For the erection of the building to
house the pump equipment, the con-
tractor is to receive $3.50 and an addi-
tional $137 for the foundation and
wiring. The motor is not included in
the bid and award and will be taken
care of at later date.
At North 4th Street.
The new we'll will be located mid
way between the plant and well num-
ber four at 7th north and Spring
This will bring it at point directly
west of the Farmers elevator. The
work Of drilling the we'll is to be com
menced without delay and it is ex-
pected that the men to do the work
and the equipment will be here either
today or tomorrow.

MILFORD VISITED
BY HAIL STORM.
.GLUTH FARM, THREE MILES
FROM NEW ULM SUSTAINs
GREATEST LOSS.
HEAVY DOWNPOUR RELIEVES
SUFFERING FIELDS IN
THIS VICINITY.

This vicinity was visited Sunday
night, or rather about 2 o'clock Mon
day morning, by the first hail storm
OF the season, and considerable damage
was done in Milford over small
stretch Of territory. The damage was
confined to q strip about a half mile
wide and mile long. Most Of the
damage was done on the Edwin Gluth
farm, three miles from New Ulm. His
brothers farm which adjoins was also
visited by the storm and the farm of
Hans Larson also suffered, but to a
lesser extent.
Rye Field Destroyed.
On the Edwin Gluth farm, rye
field of about sixteen acres was en-
tirely destroyed and Mr.. Gluth de
cided on Monday to plow the rye under
and SOW another crop. His oats were
also considerably damaged but he
felt that they would come up again so
that it would not be necessary to re-
SOW the field. His wheat crop escaped.
Another farm lying just by the side
| OF the Gluth place was untouched and
the rye there was growing as nicely
Monday morning as it had on Sunday.
Il Two Divisions Of Storm.
The storm came in two sections, there
being hail both times. There was a
good deal Of wind, thunder and light
ming and quite heavy shower, but
the Gluth family did not give any
thought to the matter although they
| were awakened by the noise of The
elements and knew what it was hail
| ing. No windows were broken and
no particular alarm was felt. In the
morning they found hail stones the
size of marbles lying in cool places
under the trees. Those who saw the
indentations made in the soil by the
falling hail stones said that they must
have been good inch in diameter and
that the rye field was literally pounded
out of existence. Mr.. Gluth estimates
his damage at about 5000. He carried
hail Insurance. .#
No Rain In New Ulm.
I In New Ulm the storm manifested
itself only by wind, thunder and light,
tningr and good many people did no,
know that there had been any hnc
of storm during the night.
