A couple of men have been in this
vicinity for the past two weeks,
from Kansas, buying and trading
horses for cattle. Steers are in good
demand. We saw Henry Dressler
at Sleepy Eye Saturday starting out
on a two-fold mission, hunting up
steers to buy and also to find the
fellow that stole his rubber coat.
Weare glad to see the portly and
dignified figure of our old friend DR..

living while he was at New Ulm,
but considerable older looking from
his burden of duty and professional
care. We wish the DR.. long life

We went with the crowd to Albin
SaturdayJune 14th, ostensibly to see
a horse race and match game of
base ball, but really in the interest
Of the press, to see the country, the
crops, the people, &c., and report to
the Review. My impression was
that if they call it amusement to see
a couple OF scrub colts scampering
across the prairie and few bare
footed boys running after a ball,
then it don't take much to amuse a
rustic crowd. Such amusements are
innocent and harmless, but it struck
me very forcibly that the ninety
persons and fifteen teams might
have been used to better advantage.

can understand how young ladies
could enjoy it, for Of course they
could be happy under any circum.
stances when their lovers are near.
The part of the programme that eli
cited the most enthusiasm was
when the dogs drove a jack rabbit
into the crowd. The poor frightened
animal ran the gauntlet successfully
notwithstanding he was assailcd
on every side with such missiles as
boots, bats, balls, hats, caps, &c, but
the poor animal passed through safe
and was saluted with rounds Of vo.
ciferous cheers as he disappeared
in safety beyond the view of his
frantic pnrsuers.
