Chas. Silverson returned on Tuesday
of last week from his Cinncinatti visit,
glad enough to get back to Minnesota.
Cinncinatti, he says at this season OF
the year is just a little too far south for
a Minnesota man to feel comfortable.
The program for the band concert
next Saturday evening is as follows:
Superb March; Overture, Song and
Dance; Waltz; Grand Needy Overture;
Prize Polka; German Concert Walz;
Common Polka; Tornado Quickstep
Workmen commenced last week to
repair the old depot and move it back a
few feet from the track. 1t certainly
does not look as though we would have
a new one and it is a shame that New
Ulm must put up with this old she'd.
The business the company does here is
sufficient to warrant the erection of a
substantial and creditable building, and
they should be asked to do it.
Joseph Bivanke, Bohemian in the
employ of John Kalb, who lives south
of New Ulm, was arrested on Saturday
and brought before Justice on the
charge of threatening violence to his
employer, the complaining witness. He
was sentenced to furnish bonds for 500
to keep the peace for three months, in
default of which to 60 to jail for the
same length of time. The necessary
funds were furnished him on Monday
and he was released.
The merchants of the city have done
a very proper thing in renting all the
vacant store buildings in town in order
to protect themselves from the Cheap
John establishments that come to town,
stay couple of weeks, dispose of a lot
of second class goods, roping in the
town for all they can, leaving suddenly
and running trade in general. 1t is no
more than right that the home dealers
be protected from such as these and if
the city can't do it the merchants must
of themselves.
The following dispatch from Red
Wing leads us to believe that the object
of the proposed extension is to connect
with the Cannon Y alley and build west
ward. taking in New Ulm in their SUR
vey: Engineers Of the Chicago, Bur
lington 81 Northern for the past few
days have been at work surveying a
route for their line on the Wisconsin side
of the Mississippi, across the river
through this city and westward. Such
line would be of great benefit to the
Burlington system as direct western
outlet, and it is the belief that the COM
pany IS seriously contemplating such
extension,
A good story is told Of one of the Bar
bour troupe during their stay in Sleepy
Eye. The company were playing Kath.
lCou MdFOIu00u VI WudG Was PlCSOAIOu
here under the title Of Only a Farmer S
Daughter. The scene closes with an
old fashioned dance in which it becomes
the lot of handsome young officer to
be kissed by an old woman. He OBJ
jects Of course and in trying to escape
he jumps from the stage and is pursued
through the audience by the old woman
who makes mistake and instead OF
kissing the young man, kisses the editor
of the Sleepy Eye Herald. 1t was warm
embrace and the applause which fol.
lowed stopped the play for a full hall
hour. The company must have had
some grudge against the editor of the
St. Peter Tribune and took this way of
expressing their thanks TO the man who
thumped him.
