New Ulm weekly review. [volume] (New Ulm, Minn.) 1878-1892, 1890-01-15
Attorney Hagberg did legal business

Attorney Hagberg did legal bushes
at Mankato, Thursday.
Only two marriage licenses issued
since Jan.1. Julius Pautzke and Liz
zie Meyer and G. r. Snyder and Lins
V. Popp are the happy couples.
Rev. Bernhard. of West Newton. has
under project a new Catholic church
for that town which will cost, when
completed, $4,000. Such sum With
out question will be sufficient for very
fine building, and, when fitted out with
society rooms and a library attachment
will be credit to its builders. The
stone is already being hauled for the
structure.
Mrs. Niedecker, of Sigel, is suffering
from blood poisoning. Sometime ago
an oak silver lodged in her thumb,
which caused a swelling, and after try.
ing to remove it with a needle, blood
poisoning set in, and her whole arm is
now affected. It is quite likely that the
point of the needle was poisoned and
brought on the present painful effect.
She is very low.
The program for the masquerade bali
at Turner Hall on the evening of the
25th will be found in another column
From this it will be seen that the bali
is no small affair, but on the other
hand it reads like an old time story.
But the published programme is not
all. There are many other features that
we have heard of, and on the whole it
promises to be the biggest of it's kind
ever held in New Ulm. The ladies in
charge are unusually busy and their
uncommon efforts deserve to be reward
ed.
Thinking that it would be of interest
to the people to know what Uncle Sam
realizes from the New Ulm postofice,
the Review has secured from Postmast-
er Baasen the following figures repre-
senting the business of 1889: Postal
business receipts from stamps, envel.
opes, postal cards etc., $3,764.36; from
box rent $408.l0; total, $4,172.46. The
expenses of the year amount to ST., 1882
and, deducting this from the first total,
it leaves net income deposited with
the United States Treasurer of So, 1885,
g. During the year there were issued
2,644 domestic money orders, 1888
postal notes and 100 International or
ders amounting in all to over $50,
This sum exceeds that issued by the
postoffice at Mankato and means con-
siderable money handling and lots of
hard work. The candidates for poslof-
flee might find interesting figures for
reflection in this short summary.
The marriage of Miss Lima V. Popp
to Mr.. Chas. R. Synder, of Fertile,
Mimi, was quietly solemnized at the
residence of the BRIDES parents in this
city last evening. The announcement
will be somewhat of y surprise to the
people of New Ulm as the matter has
been kept very quiet and the ceremony
was performed in the presence if the
family circle only. No outside guests
were invited and after the wedding the
happy couple left on the evening train
for their new home in the northern part
of the state. The groom is a promising
young man of Fertile, who impresses
one favorably at first appearance.
He is a wheat and lumber dealer at
that place and, we are told, is
at the head of a lucrative business.
The bride is the we'll known daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Popp of this city. She
has lived in New Ulm, with the excep-
ton Of the past five years, ali her life,
and has always been known as an es-
Unable young lady with many accomp-
lishments, During her absence from
New Ulm she was employed a, chief
clerk in a pension agency at Decorah.
Iowa. and the credit with which she
filled the position is best proof of her
worth. Her many friends here and
there will therefore, when they hear of
the wedding, unite in wishing the
couple unbounded prosperity and hap
piness.
