New Ulm weekly review., 1883-07-25

addition to tho local demand there
came orders by telegraph from Sleepy
Eye. Mr.. Rein, Of Cottonwood had
SO lights broken.
Mrs. Olding returned from Owat0na
with her children Monday evening ac-
companied by her husband and Mrs.
Newhart. Her injuries are not seri-
Gus, as first reported. Judge New
hart resumed his journey. his son be
ing but slightly hurt.
The storm of Saturday had a pre-
cursor in that of Friday night. For
about fifteen minutes the rain came
down in torrents, interspersed with
hail and driven by fitfuln north wind.
Incessant flashes of lightning made
the earth resemble sea of flames.
Mr.. Haase, of Cottonwood, had two
cows killed by lightning Friday morn
ing. He had had the misfortune to
lose one ia the same way Wednesday
night Of the previous week, when he
Immediately came to town to have his
stock insured. The second loss will
be made good by. the insurance COM
pany.
The statement made in the REVIEW,
and which has appeared in number
of other local papers, that c. c. Good
now had squatted on the famous
Pipestone quarry is an error. There
is no stone on the land pre-empted by
Mr.. G00dnow, it being farm that was
thought to have been included in the
Indian reservation, but Charley knew
| better.
| The weather on Friday was favora-
BILE to the growth of corn but rather
too hot to permit much display of en-
orgy on the part of man or beast. The
thermometer was not as high as on
some previous days this summer but
the atmosphere was SO saturated with
moisture that there was little evapo-
ration, which rendered the heat more
intolerable.
Drs. Carriers & Son, the Mankato
specialists who have been making
semi-occasional visits to New Ulm,
have decamped between two days,
leaving their numerous Mankato
creditors with accounts unbalanced. !.
Drs. Carriers & Son will soon be for
gotten and the next travelling frauds
that come along will find plenty of
willing victims.
The Free Press is informed that
prairie chickens are being killed in
the vicinity of Mankato contrary to
law. We have information that the
same unlawful practice is indulged
in by a number of parties in this vi
cinity. AS the State Game Protec-
tive Association is particularly active
to have the law enforced, some of
these violators may come to grief,
and they ought.
Last Thursday morning the people
OF New Ulm were startled by the sad
news that Mr.. Jacob Mueller had died
unexpectedly early in the morning.
He had been in his usual good spirits
the previous evening when sudden
hemorrhage came on, to which he sue
cumbed after a short struggle. De-
ceased was 48 years old and had been
a resident of New Ulm since 1857. He
was q member of the lumber firm of
| Mueller & Scherer. The bereaved fam
lily, consisting OF the wife and five
children, are left in comfortable cir
cumstances. The funeral, under the
auspices of the Turnve rien, took place
on Friday.
For the benefit OF those who are
so much concerned lest the Governor
might have felt himself insulted be-
cause he was conveyed to Camp Hub
bard in carriages drawn by one Of SD.
Peterson's traction engines, we would
state that no one looked upon it as an
advertising dodge" except one of
Mr.. Peterson's opponents in the ma
chine business, who, goaded on by
jealousy, had his friends spread the
hue and cry that the Governor had
been used to advertise Mr.. Peterson's
business. To the credit of Mr. Peter
son and Mr.. Stuebe be it said that
they alone, outside of the members of
the National Guard, volunteered the
services of any kind of conveyances
for the accommodation of the Governor
and party. Especially does it not be-
come the puny editor of the Minneso-
ia Bsobachter to criticise the doings
at Camp Hubbard. This (mis)repre-
sentative of the German press first
wrote up to the Col. of the regiment
"whether he would be deadheaded"
to the Governors ball if he came up,
before he concluded to come. He
was not deadheaded, hence an exhibi-
tion of his unwashed teeth.
Last Thursday Mrs. jun, in compa-
ny with Mrs. Buenger, was visiting at
her parents, in Cottonwood. While
there they had occasion to be in the
field near the public road for a few
minutes when a stranger drove up,
halted, exposed his person in a most
indecent manner. and used vile Ian.
