New Ulm weekly review. [volume] (New Ulm, Minn.) 1878-1892, 1883-12-26

Tho last issue of the Post contains
an account of a sad accident which oc-
Cured in the town of Lake Hanska on
Saturday, the 18th inst. Two little
girls of Ole Roningen--aged respect.
lively three and five years--were left
alone in the house while the father
and mother were engaged about the
premises. In some way the clothing
of the younger child caught fire, and
the older one coming to it's assistance
was also soon eveloped in flames.
Both children were horribly burned,
the older one succumbing to it's injur-
les the day following. DR.. Carl, the
attending surgeon, thinks the younger
child will survive it's injuries, with
proper care.
Under the laws of the State, the far.
mers of the town of Stark have asso-
clated themselves together for the
purpose of effectiDg their own fire in
surance. The association is known as
The Stark Farmers Mutual Fire In.
surance Company, and is Differed al
follows: President, Fred, Benham;
secretary, I. r. Humphrey; treasurer,
German Friction. The first board of
directors are Fred. Benham, Sam.
Bellig, James Addy, T. R. Humphrey
and G. Triton. We believe this to be
the first farmers mutual fire insur.
ance company organized in this part
of the State; but we see no reason
why it SHOULD not be success, pro.
vided fires are not Of too frequent oc.
currence.

TERRIBLE STATE OF THINGS among
the manufacturers Of cheap and adul-
terated Baking Powder, at the capture
OF their trade by DeLand & Co., with
their Chemical Baking Powder,
Whereever the two have come togeth-
er. The American people are able and
willing to pay for first-class article
when it is offered to them.
With the next issue the REVIEW
will enter upon it's seventh year. We
take this occasion to remind our del
lnquent subscribers that we must have
money. Postage must be paid in cash;
paper, labor and q hundred other
things required in conducting print.
ing establishment must be paid for in
cash, and yet in the face of all this
many of our subscribers have allowed
themselves to be in arrears for sub.
scription for years. The printers ac-
counts are in main small ones, but are
probably againsta thousand or more
persons, and in the aggregate amount
to quite sum. We wish our readers
would stop and think how many times
they could have paid the printer east
~ without feeling it. Let those in ar
rears put themselves in our place and
look at the matter squarely. We have
striven hard to give our subscribers
their moneys worth, and we hope our
delinquen.s will now come to the front
and pay up.
