day Morning to Turn il Into Ice.

Saturday night about midnight
people were surprised to hear a down
pour Of rain which continued for some
time. BY Sunday morning the at
mosphere had cooled off considerably
and the rain which had come down
the night before had become solid
ice and the sidewalks and streets every
where were smooth as glass. Pedes-
trians had consid derable trouble TO na-
tigate along the streets and quite =
number Of tumbles took place.
These who went out with their cars
as usual had some novel and unique

OPEN HOUSE TO FRIENDS
SATURDAY.
A GIFT FOR EVERY VISITING
LADY AT FORMAL
OPENING.

YeIy attractive quarters nave Deen
prepared for the Red Front Grocery
in the Frenzel Block at Number 8
North Minnesota street, and the store
fixtures and furniture were moved
from their former location at the corner
of Center and Minnesota Street, early
last week. A crew Of carpenters and
painters had been busy for some
weeks, remodeling the interior and re-
decorating so that the store now
presents an appearance of imma aculate
and spotless white. All of the shelly
ing is done in white enamel and the
fixtures have been refnished, making
very attractive place for the display
of grocery lines.
Retains Old Name.
The store will go by the name of
"The Red Front as it has for the past
seven years. AS soon as the weather
permits the outside of the building will
be painted to live up to the name.
The proprietors, George Fesenmaier
and Herman M. Siebenbrunner, are
planning to make this one of the
brightest and cleanest places in the
city for madame to do her marketing.
They have also had in mind the con-
venience of their customers and have
for that reason arranged all of their
showcases and counters on one side
of the store which will give customers
an opportunity to inspect many of the
shelf foods close at hand instead of
from distance of several feet. D..
The store has a floor space of 85 by
16 feet with office space on balcony
at the rear of the room. Below the
office space there is a store room and
there is a full basement under the
entire store. Although the building
is much narrower than the one where
they were located formerly they. will
have considerably more shelf space, as
it runs 70 feet on both sides of the
room and 16 feet across the back This
gives them shelf space of approximate
ly 1900 square feet and besides this
there is space of 35 feet in length,
and % inches in depth for drawers
besides the drawer space in the base
of the counters.
Mr.. Fesenmaier has been in the
grocery business in New Ulm about
nine years. The first year he had a
store in the East End and when Will
liam Bierbaum bought out the Behnke
grocery, Mr.. Fesenmaier moved into
the Dietz block at the corner of Center
and Minnesota street. That was eight
years ago and two years ago Herman
NJ. Siebenbrunner became associated
with Mr.. Fesenmaier in the business.
Saturday is the formal opening day
at which time there will be demon
strations Of various products, par
ticularly coffee and cookies and every
lady who visits the store will receive
as a.. souvenir "a practical household
article as a gift. There will also be
music during the day. II

TEL, j !, 'E|PHO Ne CABLE
FALLS 4 |, TO GROUND.
A TON OF WIRES COMES DOWN
DURING RAIN SATURDAY ]
NIGHT.
NO ONE HURT AND BUT LITTLE
DAMAGE EXCEPT FOR WORK
OF REPIRING.

1T never rains but it pours, = SC
thought Manager Mills Of tn, local
telephone company, Saturday night
when he was called out of his first sleep
to the telephone and told that the large
cable running between German and
Broadway at Third North street had
dropped for several hundred feet.
The rain was coming down in torrents
but the cable had to be looked after at
once as it was necessary to block the
street to keep autos from going that
way. IL,
1t is not known what brought the
cable down but it is presumed that
some of the hangers had become
weakened and gave way and that the
weight of the cable tore the others
loose. The cable it's .lf did not break
although a number of strands parted.
A Ton of Wire.
There. were CTS feet of cable that
came down and as this cable is COM
posed of 200 pair of wires, and weighs
about three and two tenths pounds to
the linear foot, the weight was con-
siderable, amounting approximately to
one ton. It required six men working
all day Sunday and four men all day
Monday, to get it back in place. Fif-
teen telephones were put out of COM
mission by the mishap but all were
working again, Monday.
May Cause Wire Trobule.
According to Mr.. Mills the damage
to the cable was slight. There were
five breaks in the strands at various
places and it is possible that when the
rain comes more trouble will develop.
The armor or covering Of the copper
wire which composes the strands of the
cable may be broken in other places
that could not be detected but when it
gets wet it will casue trouble on the
line.
Sounded Like Auto Accident.
The mishap to the able was dis
covered by William Rue1nke who was
sitting at home reading and heard
loud noise which he took to be an auto
accident. 1t sounded to him as if a
car had tipped over and going to the
window he looked for something of that
sort. He could see nothing but finally
noticed the wires lying on the street
and then he knew what it was.
AS the cable that was down extended
from the alley back Of the Hage place
to Broadway the fallen part was lying
right across Minnesota street just
where the paving comes to an end.
Mr.. Ruemke knew that cars passing
over the cable would probab injure
it and he at once notified Central.
She had also heard the noise of the fall
but did not know what it was. Afew
minutes later Emil Hage driving home
in his car, ran into the cable and neacly
had an accident. His car slued around
butzno damage was done. .
"A few electric light lines were also
torn down but the damage was very
small considering what it4might have
been and as it happened late Saturday
night it caused little Inconvenience to
anyone except the telephone men who
had to get out in the very disagreeable
weather to get things back in shape fol
Monday morning business.

CLUB COMFORTS
IN NEW BUILDING
Business Men Take Kindly to
Conveniences of Novel
Institution.

All the comforts and modern equipment
OF a fine club have been provided for the
patrons of the Recreation building, 2O7
North Delaware street, by Charles G.
Claman and Edward II. Claman, prOprie-
tors of the various activities housed I'M
der one ROOF here.
The project, which marks a novel in
novation in the business life of Indian
apoiis, has met with an unusually favor
able reception since the building was
opened for business a short time ago. In
brief the place extends to its patrons all
the comforts and cOnveniences Of a down
town social club with none of the high
cost that goes with membership in or
CARNATIONS of this character.
On the ground floor Of the building in
quarters amply large and well adapted
for the purpose are placed cafeteria of
the most modern type, with splendid ap-
pointments and equipment; a pool and
billiard-room containing as fine equip
ment as can be purchased, ten Of the
highest grade billiard and pool tables
making up the furnishings in this de-
partment, a cigar stand with a large and
complete stock Of tObaccos and a soda
fountain that has proved unusually popu-
lar.
From our experiences in operatiny
our cafeterias at 40 Virginia avenue ana
at 300 North Illinois street, we found
out long ago that the demand for a
moderate priced eating place with more
than mere restaurant equipment and
service was a steadily growing one, "
one OF the brothers said. After thinking
over the matter a long time and reach
ing the conclusion that our plans would
meet with success we established the
Recreation building where a business
man with anywhere from twenty minutes
to an hour to spend can eat take a
smoke, have a chat with his friends and
if he has the leisure and inclination,
enjoy game Of billiards or pool.
In order to assure the best OF
service and 10 have our patrons fully
understand that they could be assured OF
the serving of meals with speed We ar
ranged the cafeteria with a seating
capacity Of 120 persons, which does away
with congestion and delay. An amusing
feature of all this has been the great
Importance Of the soda fountain since
prohibition went into force. l really be
Heve the soda fountain is bound to take
a very important place in modern Amer
ican life.
at really is remarkable the interest
business men have shown in the Recrea-
ton building. Under present day con
ditions men no longer can take their
business with the careless leisure OF a
few years ago. Today business Is on a
far more intensive scale than formerly
and the average business man takes only
a fraction Of time for his noon meal he
formerly gave to it. However all men
like realization is some form and our
building apparently has given them eI-
actly what they have been looking for"

The new year opens well. 1t would not

Unique Club Gives
Aid to ex-COnvicts

PITTSBURGH, Jan. 2.-Pittsburgh
has the most unique club in the country.
Its membership is made UP exclusively of
ex -convicts. The institution is known as
the Parting Of the Ways Home and is in
charge of Rollo II. Mcbride. It's sole mo-
tive is to give the man who has finished
his "bit' in the State penitentiary here
helping hand as soon as he gets out,
find him a Job, and turn him toward a
better life.
In the seven years since the Parting
of the Ways Home was established Nc
Bride has taken care OF over $1,000 ex-
cOnvicts, and last year 1870 were fed,
sheltered and given new start.

Good crops at fair prices in 1922 would

also, to note a bit of a halt few months
later, a natural thing, before resuming
the forward movement.
Another thing he may note is that the
trade volume of 1921, the year of the eli
max of liquidation, measures nobly
alongside of 1913 and that too many OF
the men Of 1921 measured their business
by the peak volume of war and early
postwar days and not by that of the
prewar period.
Retrospect is not so attractive to the
American business man as prospect

COPPER OUTPUT
BELOW DEMAND.

Copper production is considerably be-
low copper consumption. If consump-
ton continues at the present rate, the
copper mines, long shut down, should
be in active operation in the second Il
not the first quarter Of the year.
The buying habits of the people have
changed within the last two years. This
is particularly marked in the department
store trade Buyers now scrutinize the
goods. Also they study prices. They
want to be shown"
Stocks Of material of every kind and
character held by middlemen are very

mendous amount Of stuff needed to make
up the supplies ordinarily carried and
which probably will be carried as i'm
provement in conditions becomes more
marked.
The country is richer than most per
sons know and money never was so well
and widely distributed. One evidence is
in the fact that savings banks deposits,
despite the trying times of the last year
and half or two years, are but little
below the highest in history.
