The Black Hawk War.

The sturdy pioneers who occupied
Northern Illinois and Southern Wis
consin for civilization skip years ago
often had the montony of frontier
life broken 10y conflicts with the In
dians. The last struggle of any inn
portance in the section occurred in
1882, and is known to history as the
Black Hawk War, the moving spirit
of the savage outbreak being the not
ed Black Hawk, chef of the Sacs and
Foxes. Gen. Henry Dodge, after
wards senator from Wisconsin, was
leader in the hot pursuit which finally
brought Black Hawk, with his wal.
riors, women and children, to bay
near the mouth of the Bad Axe river,
on the east bank of the Mississippi,
in what is now Vernon county, Wis.
consin. The sun of that End day of
August, 1882, set upon Il bloody field,
and the result Was the death of near
ly all the braves, and the abrupt close
OF the campaign. The chef himself
escaped, and died years after ut his
home near Rock Island. Ill. The 10.
cality of the battle Is now marked by
the village of Victory, so named from
this engagement, situated OH and

WILL ENLARGE HIS BREWERY.
John Hauenstein will Increase the CAPACITY
OF his Brewery to Fifteen Thousand
Barrels.

This week work was commenced on
the Hauenstein brewery by which its
present capacity will be doubled or in
other words increased to $4,000 barrels
a year. This will necessitate the re.
modelling of the entire structure at a
cost of between $4,000 and $25, 900.
Already brick chimney has been erect
ed, sixty-five feet in height, and the or.
der has been placed for so horse
power boiler. 80 horsepower engine,
a Is barrel kettle, surface cooler with
a acapacity of l25 barrels, and Is barrel
wash tub. A carload of cedar lumber
from Washington, the first ever re.
ceived here, has also been ordered, to be
used in making tubs.
When these improvements are com.
pleted, New Ulm will have one of She
largest breweries in the state. Its faci.
lities will be excelled by none.

The promise of Hon. John F. Mea-
CHER of Mankato to be present in New
Ulm at the dedication recalls discus
sion started by the New York Sun rec
emily relative to Mr.. Meagher's mus
tache. The Sun said: ''How does the
Hon. John F. Meagher wear the hair
with which nature, since the virlle age,
has decorated the lower part of his
countenance? Does he cultivate mus
tachois, and in what fashion? If the
Mankato mustachios are maintained in
the Fuller style, are they comparable III
majesty, and lateral stretch to those of
the chief justice himself? We can find
in the Eleventh Census, so far as it has
been issued by Hon. Robert P. Porter,
no statistics concerning the Hon John
F. Meagher's mustachios. Therefore
we apply again to the Minneapolis
Tribune, which has shown itself to be
SO well informed respecting his public
career, and so courteous in imparting
its information"
The discussion grew out of political
interview with Mr.. Meagher regarding
Chief Justice Fuller's boom for presi-
dent and in response to the Suns in
queries the Minneapolis Tribune has the
following: "The characteristic trait of
the Meagher mustachios is yigor. There
is not the flowing Fuller elegance and
lateral productivity, nor the poetry of ar
borescent curves that make the Fuller
plumage SO eloquent with grace. But
in hirsute virility, in ruggedness of pilo-
sity, the Mankato muslachios brist1e

gher's lower beard, which is thick
in growth, dark in color and sprinkled
with gray, thus emulating the en-
terprise of tie typical Western city
in the extension of its corporate
limits. The Sun may rest assured that
the Hon. Melville w. Fuller possesses
in the Hon. John F. Meagher an able
lieutenant in hirsuteness, if not also in
astuteness. The Fuller boom, resting
upon the capillary stability represented
| at Mankato, is certainly well rooted and
