This is the way the St. Peter journal
compliments the premium list of the
Brown County Agricultural Society;
The premium list covers large field
agriculture, horticulture, home preduc-
tions, art and live stock. When New
Ulm makes q move, her people mean
business, so q large attendance may
be looked for. The letter-press work,
as shown in the premium list, is cred
it to the New Ulm Review office.

James Donahue. a young travelling
man OF good address, was arrested in
Mankato recently for forging two drafts
at St. Peter. It appears that he visited
st. Peter a short time since and ingra-
tiated himself into the good esteem OF
number of the young men of that
town. He spent money freely, ran
short of cash, and then called on a
young ST. Peter man named Poetz to
endorse draft for $25 and another for
$50 on a Chicago wholesale firm that
he professed to be working for. BE
got them cashed and few days after
they came back protested. and Poetz
had to pay them. The travelling man
is now in jail awaiting trial.
