is an Industrious young man, good
barber and we bespeak for him a liber-..
al patronage.
The Ulm Review says that the band
and Governors Guard of that city are
thinking about getting up an excur-
sion to Mankato, Marshall or some
other place. By all means come to.
Mankato, bring the guards along, and
let us see real live military company.
-Mankato Review.
1t is proposed to have a gathering Of
the Sunday school workers at Burns
on the coming Fourth of July. All
schools are invited to be present. It
is also proposed to organize a County
SIS. Association, auxiliary to the State
Association. Schools will please be
represented by superintendent and a
delegate. Further notice hereafter.
The Minnesota Post misconstrues
our item of last week that Marshall
was afflicted with that dread disease
diphtheria,'' We ment the town of
Marshall and not our city marshal
Gommel. He perambulates our streets
from early morn till late at night and
don't much look as if he was troubled
by that or any other disease.
The Mankato Review says that the
German farmers in Blue Earth county
go through their wheat fields with a
scythe OF hoe, cut out the weeds, and
move them from the field, giving the
wheat Il chance. This requires q good
deal of work and some patience, but
where it is done the Review thinks
the crop will be enough improved to
pay for it.
The Sleepy Eye Wide-Aauahe man has
got 'scounty seat" on the brain bad,
and for the want of ''patent medicine
ads last week devoted a half column
to his nightmare. He is 50 sure that 4.
petition is beng circulated in the
eastern portion of the county to set OFF
four towns from the western part
that it is useless for us to say any
thing farther ON the subject, ana
so we turn him over to our Iberia
correspondent who seems to under
stand the situation better than we do.
Professor Canes O. X. barber shop
is ''busted,' at least so far as the Pro-
lessor is concerned. He packed up his
buds and moved to Sleepy Eye with
Dolly and the whole household last
Thursday. Sorry to lose so valuable a
citizen, but what is New Ulm's loss is
Sleepy Eyes gain. Mark says he'll
make it so warm around Sleepy Eye
that the water in the lake will be boil
ing hot all next winter. Golly! but
that'u be rough on the ice merchants.
OB1TUARY-It is with sorrow that
we chronicle the death of Mrs. George
Huffman, which occurred in this city
last Sunday evening at 7 o'clock. Mrs.
kaufman had suffered long and pa
tiently with that fataly disease con-
sumption, which took her life little
by little until death came to her relief.
The remains were followed to their
last resting place yesterday by large
concourse of our citizens. Mr.. Kuhl-
man and the remaining members of
the grief stricken family have the
heartfelt sympathy of the community.
The tramp John Meyer, who stabbed
Chas. Otto in an affray at Nicollet a
short time ago, has been sentenced to
three years in the State prison. The
st. Peter Tribune says that the sen.
tence is considered by some very Sc
we're, and that it is proposed to petit
ton the Governor to pardon him at
the end Of q year. When the prisoner
heard his sentence pronounced he
raised his hands and exclaimed s'My
God!' sunk down or his seat, and
cried like child.
The Congregationalists of the Min
nesota Western Conference hold their
annual meeting at Loreno from June
l2-l5. The opening sermon, on Thurs.
day, will be by Rev. II. c. Simmons of
Marshall. The Marshall Ministerial
Association will also convene at the
same time and place. Two councils
are called to meet at the same time;

The Postmaster General has instruct
ed postmasters to return or send tt
the dead letter office, without trying
to find the proper addresses, letter:
which are imperfectly directed. Th.
State must always be indicated, al
"Chicago, Ill., or 'New York, New
+. York." and except the most promi
nent cities, the county should also b,
Indicated, as t'Owatonna, Steele coun
| ty, Mimi" or ssColusa, Colusa county
Cal. = A lead pencil should never b.
used for addressing letters and al
! flourishes and useless dots, &C., shoul.
be dispensed with. Some people thinl
it is nice to dot an envelope up unit
