LOCAL NEWS.

An addition will be built to the depot
next spring. making it the most capa-
cious Office on the western division. So
say the officials at this place.
Petitions for appointment to the post
office follow close, the one upon the
other. That Of Capt. Nix was the sec
ond to present itself to the public, and
we understand it is receiving numer-
Gus signers.
The latest on the string of New Ulm
boomlets is a starch factory, and those
who urge such an institution, do SO on
the grounds of valuable resources and
feasibility in manufacture. One thing
is sure New Ulm has room for EN- all.
There is nothing new in railroad this
week. Certain parties in town are
keeping up an active correspondence
and claim that the prospects for new
road within the coming year appear
brighter now than ever. Well, keep
the bail rolling.
The first real snow of the season
commenced to fall after the rain of Fri
day evening. 1t continued throughout
the night and part of the following day,
covering the ground in some places to
the depth Of three inches. AS it came
quick, so it melted away.
The dynamo now used at the cleo
trio light plant will be exchanged for
a new one. The latter is expected to
arrive to-day and is the same in make
as the other, with Il few improvements.
We Will now look for more regularity
in light.
The Sleepy Eye paper tells the out
side world that it's town is without street
lamps. Brace up, neighDor, or you'll
never win in the county seat fight
Tracy Trumpet.
She don't want to think of anything
short of an electric light plant either.
VIM. Walters, of Lyon county, was
arrested here last week for attempting
to dispose of q mortgaged horse. The
mortgage was held by Mr.. Drew of
Marshall, who came down Wednesday
evening and identified the horse and
it's owner. AS the property was turned
over to Drew without objection, the
prisoner was released.
With this week we commence the
publication of portions of the new pro-
bate code. Sections of the old law have
heretofore appeared in the Review and
we will at this time give only the inn
portant changes. 1t will be interest
ing reading and every person in the
possession of property should read the
articles.
The new venture, made by St. Alex
ander's Hospital in introducing a spec
ial ward for receiving light cases of in
sanity, seems to meet with general IA
vor among the probate judges. Many
encouraging letters from the differ
ent counties of the state have
been received and applications from
two or three. The move will no doubt
meet with the success which it de-
serves.
Van Dusen's representative at this
place during the past week has not
paid less than II cents for wheat. This
is three cents higher than at Sleepy Eye
| and from four to five higher than the
price paid along the Minneapolis & St.
Louis road. New Ulm is therefore the
proper place to market your produce. ~
New Ulm Review.
Tell the whole truth. New Ulm part
les have been bulling the market and
the prices paid are not permanent by
any means. But all the same New Ulm
has the reputation of being good mar
ket.-Mankato Free Press.
Yes indeed, and as long as the pri-
ces are kept up it matters little as to
the cause. Whether permanent or not,
from all that can be learned at present,
the difference between New Ulm prices
| and those of other points will not be
changed at once nor for some time.
In the meanwhile let the farmers take
advantage of our inducements and bet
ter prices.
The denizens of our city were start
led on Wednesday by the report that
Andreas Egl had been killed at the
Stoeckert brickyards. Although no
one saw just how the sad and sudden
ending was brought about, the particu-
lars can be closely guessed at. Mr..
Egl, who for the past year has been in
the employ of John Hauenstein, was
hauling brick from Mr.. Stoeckert' yards
on the afternoon mentioned. He was
first seen coming down the hill leading
