Under the management of Chief
Herian and first assistant Brust, the
editor took in the sixteenth annual
meeting of the Minnesota State Fire
| mems Association held at Albert Lea
January 18th. We left New Ulm Mon
| day forenoon arriving in Waseca at 2
P. N. The afternoon was spentin view
ing the city and visiting with Ed.
| Castor and J. Fischer, former New
Ulmites and Messrs. Graham, of the
Radical, and Childs and Murphy of the
Herald. In the evening we started
for Albert Lea. On the train we met
about ninety delegates from Minneapo-
lis, St. Paul, Shakopee, Jordan, Hen
derson, Gaylord, Alexandria, Braine-d
and other northern Minnesota cities.
| Arriving at Albert Lea near 10 D. m.
we were taken in charge by the Albert
Lea tiremen and delivered over safely
to the tender mercies of our land
lord. Although we had taken supper
at Waseca and it was past 10 O'Clock
| our landlord insisted that we must eat
again. He stated that he had orders
from the Albert Lea fremen TO see to
our wants and he was bound to do so.
OF course Eve ate and right here 1--WE
want to 60 on record as matching the
New Ulm delegates against the world
when it comes to consuming good food.
We have never seen anything to match
the storingcapacity of a chief or first as
sistant. They got away with three
meals and q lunch inside of Z hours.
After supper we went to Firemen' S
Hall to meet brother firemen and to
get acquainted. The only familiar face
we seen was that of Christ Juni, of Jor-
dan, a former New Ulm boy. Tuesday
morning at o'clock the meeting was
called to order by President Mitchell.
Reports of va,ious committees and of.
ticers were received and read. After
this the time until D. M. was occu.
pied by representatives af different com.
panies reading essays on topics of inter
est to firemen. Officers were elected
for the ensuing year and the society ad.
journed to partake of a banquet given
in their honor by the tiremen of Albert
Lea. The entertainmt concluded with
a dance which lasted until train time
the next morning. The Albert Lea
tiremen know how to entertain and we
hope to meet them again. Arriving al
Waseca at $3.50 Wednesday morning
the Winona and New Ulm delegation
were taken in charge by the Wasecs
iiremen and the time until 8 D. m. was
spent very pleasantly. We arrived
home Wednesday evening, just in time
to escape the worst blockade of the
season. The next convention of the
M. S. F. A. will be held at Alexandra
June IL, 1889. The officers of the society
are: N. j. Trenham, president A. F.
