NEW ULM, gfei Phone No 568 i&ft&ftSrL i&sl* MINN ^f,iMW«.ii TRACY STILL MOIST. In the proceedings recently instituted to deterimine the validity of the election which made Tracy dry, Judge Olsen on Thursday filed his decision sustaining the contention of the "wets" that the elec tion was invalid, because of the fact that the petition to vote on the question of license was not filed in time and did not have the requisite number of signers. If this decision is not reversed, the Tracy saloons will be allowed to operate until July 1st, the time of the expiration ot the present licenses. Whether the saloons will be allowed to continue after that time is a matter of conjecture. BUYS BUSINESS AT SPRING FIELD. Postmaster Wm. Mueller closed a deal on Saturday whereby Otto D.

Billiard enthusiasts who gathered at the Commercial Club rooms last Satur day night enjoyed a rare treat when they had the opportunity of seeing Geo. E. Spears, the crack billiard expert and fancy shot artist in action. Mr. Spears first played an exhibition game with his son, Edgar, He is a phe nomenl cue artist and made several long runs of 24,29,57 and finally made a dra matic finish ty running a total of 100 points amid the enthusiastic applause of the spectators. How much farther he might have gone is mere conjecture as he holds the world's record run of 5,047. The entertainer then gave an exhibi tion of fancy shots which certainly en title him to the title of "The Wizard ot the Cue." No position of the balls seemed to offer any problem to him and the usual laws of physics were evidently suspended while he made the ivory obey his will. He made the balls describe figure eights, jump over each other and come back and make a billiard. He gave his famous "William Tell" shot, his "Fade -away" and Spit-ball." Im possible freak shots were the order of the evening and he held the spectators spell bound at the uncanny behavior of the balls. A lecture on the fine points of the game then followed in which the artist declared that there were really only two shots in billiards, the "draw" and the "follow." He then showed the proper way of execu ting these two shots to get the best re sults. Playing the cushions he deplored as unnecessary and amateurish and said that the real expert would go to the cushion only as a last resort. The whole performance was estremely interesting and the forty or fifty spectators who were present went away with a much more profound respect for the mysteries of the green covered table LUTHERAN PASTORS IN CON FERENCE.

Gilbert Alfred Greenholz was born in Linden July 3, 1894 and died at the youthful age of 19 years, 9 months and 3 days. He leaves to mourn his untimely death, a broken hearted father and mother and two brothers, Theodore and. Willie. The funeral sevrice was conducted yesterday afternoon by Rev. C. G.

Last Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock, William Bode, one of the early pioneers of Nicollet County, passed away at his home in Nicollet Township at the age of 72 years. Death was due to heart failure with which he had been afflicted ever since Christmas. He was confined to bed for about 10 days preceding his demise. The deceased was born in Empele, Hannover March 11, 1842 and came to America with his parents when he was but 9 years old. The family settled in Illinois where he grew to man hood and where on April 22,1867he was united in marriage to Maria Pehling who preceded him in death in the year 1903. Shortly after his marriage he removed to Nicollet County and took up a homestead in Nicollet Township where he has since resided. He followed the occupation of farming until the death of his wife when he retired from active farm life, altho he still remained on the farm. Eight children were born to them of whom the following sons and daughters survive him: Fred and Ernst Bode and Mrs. Fred Stolt of Nicollet and Elisa and Dora who are still at home, Mrs. William Lang horst of Courtland and Mrs. Louis Dahms of Truman.

Last Monday James Jackson Green, whose death was mentioned in the Re view a week ago, passed away at the home of his daughter, Miss Emma Green of St. Paul. Mr. Green had been actively engaged in the work of newspaper making,for a period of fifty-six years, and his death removed the oldest edito? fh" Minnesota.

He completed his apprenticeship 1853 and the following year started his first paper. September 27, 1853 he was married to Miss Minerva Whitridge. On account of failing health he moved to Minnesota in September 1856, spending the first winter at St. Anthony. In May, 1857, he moved to St. Peter and a few weeks later launched the "Tra verse des Sioux Reporter", a paper which was doomed to be short-lived as the financial panic put it out of business. In June, 1858, he established the "Min nesota Statesman" in St. Peter, cdn tinuing to run the paper until the fall of 1862, when he enlisted in Troop "E", First Minnesota Mounted Rangers.

The St. Anthony Democrat was his next love, he conducting the paper for two years and then returning to Le Sueur to establish the Sentinel, which he edited and published for nineteen years. In 1892, however, he moved to Hutchinson and founded the Democrat, remaining control of that paper until 1895 when he came to New Ulm and bought the News. The New Ulm News was his last paper, and after selling it in 1909, to the New Ulm Publishing Co. he retired from active work. During the last four years he made his home with his daughter in St. Paul. Mrs. Green died in 1909, and one son, Oliver Green, passed away about a year ago.

We wish Co thank all the kind friends who in any way assisted us to bear the trouble and sorrow of our recent great bereavement, the death of our beloved husband and father, John Hauenstein. We especially express our heartfelt thanks to those who contributed the beautiful floral offerings, the singers, the Lodges and Societies, the active and honorary pall-bearers and Captain Albert Stein Mrs. John Hauenstein, 'Sr., 4 lAAAAAAAAAH We invite you to our music store here at New Ulm to inspect and listen to the tone of the new Melletona Orchestral Grand Player Piano. This high quality and grade in player pianos cannot be com pared with those common player pianos that you call player pianos. This Melle tona orchestral grand player is in a class by itself for there is not another player manufactured for the money that this sells for that can compare with the Melle tone orchestral grand, for when you play one you have the tune of Melletona or chestra ell in one instrument. Be sure to see all the new devices and brass tubes that are connected with the traker bar instead of rubber tubes that other player pianos have. We all know that rubber will rot no matter how good rubber the is but the brass tubes will not, so you see the point in having brass tubes in your player pianos. Then you have some thing that will last and not give you any trouble. Be on the lookout for your own good when you buy a player piano. Buy the best and save money and trouble. See the Melletona orchestral grand player piano at the New Ulm Music Store, be fore you buy a player piano. Enough said and thank ou.
