of tho train the Pioneer Singing Socie.
ty of Young America, numbering IA
voices, arrived on two teams from
Winthrop and the new arrivals were
kept awake with music and song until
the break Of day. The new arrivals by
train were considerably disguised with
their trip, having consumed about Q
hours in coming from St. Paul and
Minneapolis. The delay along the
road was OccasiOned by hot boxes and
a defective engine. They made the
most of the situation. however. and
soon after their arrival forgot their
troubles on the way.
Sunday forenoon was devoted to
class and individual exercises in lance
throwing, vanlting, running and wrcst-
ling. Tie exercises were quite inter-
esting and were witnessed by a large
number of people. At about noon q
number of Turner'S gathered in the
lecture room and discussed the tenn
perance question and other matters Of
public Importance.
At O'Clock commenced the class
exercises on the horizontal bar and
rack, in which all active Turner's par
ticirated. Later in the afternoon the
pupils of the New Ulm gymnasium
gave an exhibition in staff and other
exercises under direction of their
teacher, Mr.. Carl Gebser. The exer-
cises were accompanied by music and
song composed especially for the occa-
sion by Robt. r. A. Nix. The move.
ments were all made with the precis-
ion of clock work, and both teachers
and scholars have good reason to feel
proud of their last Sundays exhibit
ton. Caljsthenic exercises by all the
active Turner'S, under direction of Mr. !.
Kinderfater, Of Minneapolis, was also
very interesting and the boys elected
frequent applause.
Mr.. Gust Fischer delivered brief
but interesting address, but on ac-
count of the prevailing high wind only
those in the immediate vicinity Of the
stand were able to hear and under.
stand him. His delivery was very
good and without embarrassment and
it is to be regretted that the elements
were 50 unfavorable for outdoor
speaking.

present during the entire afternoon
and everybody seemed to be we'll
pleased with the various exercises.
TIE music was furnished alternately
