conveyance on wheels, and its mammoth mod

a church of the last century. Here the

period, without being awakened by even
solitary wagon rafting over the stony street

Burglars at Work.

News having been received here late.
" that thieving parties had been at
work in places east Of this city, pillag.
ing stores and residences, our police
kept sharp lookout, shadowing sus.
picious characters for the last week,
without being called upon however to
make any arrests.
In the early morning hours of last
Friday, while night police Koehler was
busted in helping the militia, who had
just arrived from Camp Lake View, in
unloading their baggage, parties, who
must have closely watched him, entered
Chas. Sommer's store from in front.
and succeeded in taking four first quality
suits, several pairs of good shoes, some
jewelry and a few dollars in cash. The
inmates of the rooms above the store
were not aroused, and not till morning
was the loss discovered.
At about 2 O. clock in the morning
Mrs. Koehler, the wife of the night
Waterman, fancied she heard step on
the corridor leading past her room,
and her suspicious being aroused,
watched intently, soon perceiving by
the shadow on the wall that a person
was carefully stealing his way along.

IN JUSTICE COURT.

Frank H. smyth, who had to appear
last week before Justice Fischer on a
charge of perjury, was bound over to
the District Court under bonds of $1,000.
A tired looking stranger, who called
himself doctor and certainly was an
educated and aristocratic tramp, was
arrested last Thursday night and put in
the lock up. The Justice next morning
gave him his liberty on condition that
he leave town in sight of four hours,
which he did.

New Ulm, Mimi, June 4th, 1883.
President Lincoln said that you can
fool some People all the time and you
can fool all the People sometimes. but
you cannot fool all the People all the
time.
Some machine men seem to take F..
I. Barnnm' s view that the American
people are bound to be humbugg ed and
farmers in this country are subjected
and liable to fall into the hands of Just
such men. Farm machinery now.a-
days is SO near perfection that nearly
all kinds of machinery works leason-
ably well, yet there is q difference in
the material put into them as is also
the case in prices with local dealers.
We believe in the theory OF dividing
the profits with our customers and we
would rather sell a great many goods
at prices, that at the end Of the season
would leave hundreds of dollars Of the
profits in the pockets of our customers,
than to combine with other machine
men in raising the prices, thereby sell
ing but little and dividing up the
trade, in order to keep machinery high.
