WEDNESDAY EVENING.
REPORTS READ.

One Of the most important matters
brought out at the anual stockholders
meeting of the. Peoples COOPERATIVE
Association of New Uln, held at Cream
cry Hall, Wednesday evening, was the
fact that the Associations indebted
ness has been decreased by approx
mately $1,000 during the past seven
months, in spite of the backward season
and the slump in merchandise values.
The remaining Indebtedness, while
seemingly considerable, could be easily
wiped out in few years, if all Of the
stockholders would give at least por-
ton of their patronage to the Associa-
tons store, President P. P. Mander-
field, Director C. O. Weilandt and
Manager George E. Senske told the
gathering, which was made up of about
rs stockholders, who had braved the
stormy weather to attend the meeting.
Elect Five Directors.
Although all Of the present directors
were willing to step out and turn the
management of the store over to other
stockholders, in spite of the fact that
the terms Of only three directors had
expired, the stockholders retained them
all by rising vote of confidence! The

plays and high-class orchestra music,
with an occasional big road attraction
as often as the local public desires to
have this class of entertainment. Miss
Maybelle Zittow, formerly musical
director at the Crystal Theatre here,

Gould's shows at Turner Theatre. In
addition to Miss Zittow, who by the
way, is an accomplished musician,
some of the best local talent will be
engaged to render music, while Mr..
Gould will again play the violin.
Special pains will be taken to fit the
music to the pictures, as this was one
of the popular features of the Crystal
Theatre under Mr.. Gould's manage
mert.

chosen with view to furnishing in
teresting and wholesome entertain
ment for every member Of the family.

,ceipt of letter from her sister, Mrs.
George Holiday, formerly Miss Mary
Sellner, Of this city, who for the past
several years has resided at Clarks
Fork, Idaho, with her family, in which
she states that the entire Holiday

drowning about two weeks before
Christmas, when creek in close
proximity to their home flooded the
town. They were obliged to vacate
their home hurriedly, as a half hour
later there was two feet of water in the
building and they would not have been
able to leave. All they were able to
save was the clothong on their backs,
and as result Of the flood were obliged
to seek shelter among friendly towns
people until the day before Christmas,
when they were able to secure two
room shack as temporary abode.
That is where they spent Christmas
Day. j-

had been i'll only five days. The fna'

dated back to last Tuesday, when he
contracted a cold, and he had been
sinking rapidly for "a hours. During
Saturday morning a slight amount OF
liquid nourishment had been Gd-
ministered. '+@aiN' 's.*
The pontiff lapsed into semicon-
sciousness. This gave way to ''un-
consciousness. It was announced at
noon that the patient was in sta te
OF coma, but later it was said he had
been sleeping and had fallen into "deep
slumber."
Between noon and 1 o'clock the
doctors admitted that the pope had
not shown any Improvement either
from nourishment or sleep.
The Osseruatore Romano, official
organ of the Vatican, announced that
DR.. Battistini, papal physician, had
informed the pope,s official family
that, even if death were not imminent,
it was inevitable.
Belief was expressed in Vatican cir
cles that the pope's successor will be
Cardinal Pietro MafH, archbishop of
Pisa.
During the morning, in a period Of
consciousness, the pontiff whispered to
those at the bedside, 81 feel better.
The pope was in extreme weakness

Lying with closed eyes, he murmured
"peace, peace" evidently alluding sub

fell from his lips from time to time, but
his vitality had sunk so low that he
spoke in the weakest of whispers.
Tragic SCEnS dt d GekCdIl.
Day dawned upon tragic scene at
the Vatican, Saturday. The papal
court joined the cardinals in prayer.
The pail of approaching death hung
over all. Outside in the piazza Of St.
Peters, a crowd, mostly kneeling with
faces turned heavenword, uttered their
supplications for the recovery Of the
Holy Father.
At 7 o'clock it was stated at the
Vatican that the pope was unconscious
and that death was expected at any
minute.
The four attending physicians did
all in their power to relieve his SUI
ferings, but they could hold out no
hope for ultimate recovery.
At 8 o'clock the Holy Father was
still breathing, but was in great pain

ing on Fred Stoeckert, one Of the three
well-known Stoeckert Brothers, who
conduct a green house on their resi-
dence property adjoining the Washing
ton school on South Minnesota street.
Mr.. Stoeckert does not believe in pay
ing fancy prices for green-picked
lemons that hail from the Woody West
or the Sunny southland and are sold
in local grocery stores, SO he grows his
own
Fruit Weighs Two Pounds.
One day last week, Mr.. Stoeckert
called at the Review office and showed
us sample of the fruit of his lemon
tree. This particular citric sphere
weighed exactly two pounds and its
girth measured 16 1-2 inches which
is some weight and size for modest
Minnesota grown lemon. It was per-
fectly ripe and, according to Mr..
Stoeckert, contained sufficient ''meat"
for several large, luscious lemon pies.
Judging from the palate tickling aroma
of the fruit, these pies should back
everything off the map that boasts
Of containing Western or Southern
grown lemons.
Tree Less Than Feet.
The tree which bore the large lemon
is only about two and half or three
feet tall. 1t is Of the Ponderosa
Lemon variety and a healthy looking
plant. This particular tree has braved
more than Is winters and basked in
the sunlight Of as many summers in
Minnesota. That probably, is one Of
the reasons for the lusciousness of it's
fruit. Three years ago, this plant
bore a lemon, somewhat smaller than
the one which Mr.. Stoeckert exhibite
to us last week, and which made four
big, deliciously Favored pies. At the
present time, the tree still has two
good-sized lemons growing upon it,
which promise to ripen soon. In order
to prevent the heavy fruit from
dropping off before it is ripe, Mr..
Stoeckert has devisd an ingenious
arrangement in the nature of a basket

Mr. Stoeckert informs US that he

that he does not know the exact agt
