A FINE NEW PASSENGER DEPOT.
Our City is to be Furnished With one in
the near future.

New Ulm people have always con.
sidered it only a question of time as to
when our city would be supplied with q
suitable passenger depot, in keeping
with the increasing business at this place
and now it would seem as if the time
had arrived when something would be
done. Last week, Messrs. Sanborn, general
superintendent of the Northwestern
road, and Hallenbeck, general
freight agent. were in the city expressly
for the purpose of talking the matter
over with Mr.. Heideman. They OBJ
tanned information as to what was
wanted a nice pressed brick structure,
not connected with the present depot
and, when they left, Mr.. Sanborn stated
that New Ulm would be given what
she wanted. Everybody, Of course,
will live in hopes that the general sup
intendent meant what he said. The
building that is used at present, aside
from being shabby in appearance, is
not equal to the needs of a rapidly
growing city Of the size Of New Ulm,
and, while our citizens will greatly ap-
preciate the erection Of q handsome de-
pot here, they will realize at the same
time that it has all along been deserved.

Interest in Baseball.

The first game of baseball played in
New Ulm this year occupied the atten-
ton of large crowd Of spectators on
the grounds south of Turner Hall Sun
day afternoon. 1t was a game between
the railroad and town boys, and the
mines were composed as follows:
Rairoaders: G.. Zimmerman, Geo.
Waskie, Alvin Lang, P. R. McHale,
Fred Spoerhase, Henry Yunker. Geo.
Brown, VIM. Tiernan and H. L. Bleth-

Town boys: F. Heers; Robt. Brandt,
w. McHale, F. Baasen, John and Her.
man Meyer, Herman Kiesling, Frank
Nenno and Jos. Koehler. =:
Fiye innings were played according
to agreement, at the end of which the
score stood 20 to 10. The railroaders
were 50 pleased with their own work al
this stage, that they offered to continue
the game. The sixth inning was ther
played and the score changed to 81 tc
10. By that time the winning nine
thought they had had enough of it and
threw up the game. Dissatisfied witt
this turn of affairs, the town boys of
fered to play again, and a game of fv'
innings will decide between the twt
mines next Sunday.
L. F. Entrup acted as umpire.

LIND REPEATS THAT He IS OUT.
The Second District Congressman will
Rest on his Laurels for a Time.

Congressman Lind was IN Duluth
last week and in an interview repeated
that the statement made by Senator
Day some months ago regarding his
retirement from politics was true.
Il did not tell Mr.. Day, however, that
/ should retire from politics forever"
said Mr.. Lind. Il shall retire from
politics for the present. I am yet COM
paratively young man, and 1t would
be looking too far into the future to say
that shall retire from politics permsn.
emily. l do not want, nor will I accept
any public office when my present term
in congress expires. I made hard fight
last time for my reelection. and ran
5000 votes ahead of my ticket. 1t was
stated that Baker made an excellent
fight, bu: the fact of the matter was
that had he polled the full Alliance and
Democratic vote, he would have had a
majority of $500 votes.''
''Will you run for governor of Mime
sofa in 1862, considering the fact that
your name, along with Knute Nelson s
is the most prominently mentioned for
that office?''
s'No;I do not want Office. If did, L would
not have taken the trouble to declare my
Intentions as ea1ly as I did that I was
otioo11v ont of ,,o1;e;oc
"If Blaine were run for president he
would poll fuller vote than any man
among the American people. There
are thousands of Democrats who would
vote for him because he is now looked
upon as man above party lines, Mr..
Blaine is the first American statesman to-
teach Americans the dignity of their own
nation, and he is generally looked upon
now as the only man intensely Ameri-
can enough to assert the dignity of our
country at London, Berlin and Paris in
such way that they were forced to
recognize it. His reciprocity measures
force them to acknowledge our power
as d commercial rival, while the retalia-
tory measures of the Mckinley bill,
adopted at Mr.. Blaine's instance, force
them to acknowledge our power direct
ly. Every one knows Mr.. Blaine's pow
er on the end of an argument Both
England and Italy can testify to that.
With strong presidential timber and a
propular gubernatorial candidate in the
field do not think the Alliance will cut
much figure.

THE NICOLLET MILL.

10 borrow an expression, there is
pleasure in all things; pleasure in the
moonlight ride with poor drivers, in the
midnight get-out- -and-walk to avoid run
aways and in arriving at home twixt
three and four in the morning to tell
an unknowing public that there are de-
lightful pleasures in such trip. The
party of young folks that visited Camp
PAIL on Tuesday evening of last week
may not fully realize what delightful
experiences they really enjoyed, but
certain it is that from the time that the
rig upset at short distance from the
camp until the party reached town after
getting out at the top of every hill and
walking to the bottom for fear the hor-
ses might 60 little faster then walk,
there elapsed period that was full of
extraordinary charms. Imagine sever
al young ladies being compelled to walk
half of seven miles because their gallant
escorts were not equal to their trust, that
of driving an ordinary team! Go little
further and picture in your minds eye
these gallant young men. both mi itary
officers, white in the face with scare, and
jumping out whenever the coad inclined
an inch or two! Surely there is fun and
pleasure in such trip. 1t lis moonlight,
of course, and at present walking is
good. .-... ii.

THE NICOLLET MILL BLAZE.
A Fifty Thousand Dollar Plant Swept
Away in Thirty Minutes.
New Ulm Men Largely Interested in the
Destroyed Property. -. =

Shortly after twelve O. clock on Tues
day afternoon of last week, fire caught
in the Swan Lake Mill at Nicollet, and
in less than forty-fv minutes the entire
plant-the pride of the village-was a
heap of ashes and damaged machinery.
The fire started in the basement,
somewhere near the wheat conveyer,
and, as the wind was in the right direc-
tion, the mill blazed into cinders as if
it had been so much powder. Great
effort was made by the citizens to check
the progress of the flames, but it was a
useless fight. In less time almost than
it takes to record it, the surrounding
buildings were on fire, aDd nothing re-
mains now but the walls of the engine
room and the chimney. In addition to
the mill proper, the elevator, storage
house, engine room, cooper.shop, coal
house, between 5000 and 10 900 bushels
of wheat, 100 tons of coal and an equal
number of cords of wood were CON-
pletely destroyed. A large amount of
flour was also lost, and only the books
and records were saved. The total loss
IS placed at $40. 900 while the insurance
will amount to $39,60O
The proprietors of the mil are A.
Schmidt of Cincinnati, Chas. Silverson
of this city and Wm. Silverson and Geo.
Frey of Nicol]et. The three local own
ers were interviewed as to the prospect
of the mill being rebuilt, but all stated
that they themselves would be at loss
New Ulm weekly review. [volume] (New Ulm, Minn.) 1878-1892, 1891-07-29

to answer the question until the present
losses have been adjusted and full
settlement made. The mill had ca
pacity of $50 barrels, employed thirty
men, and was great industry for Mic
ollet.
Should the proprietors conclude not to
build, it is certain that those living in
Nicollet will come to New Ulm and en-
gage in business here.

To tho Defenders Of New Ulm.

=
In commemoration cf the critical
condition into which the State was
thrown in consequence of the Sioux out
break of August, 1862, and in just ap-
probation If important services rem
dered by the stubborn defenders of
New Ulm against the repeated attacks
of the hostiles, the state of Minnesota
has caused the erection of a monument
at New Ulm to pelpetuate the memory
of the battles at this place, and as the
monument will be turned over to the
city by the proper authorities on the
s29th anniversary of the historic events,
Saturday, August %, 1891, the citizens
of New Ulm hereby extend a cordial
invitation to the heroic defenders to
honor this city with their presence on
that occasion.
The men of those dark days are fast
passing away, and as this will probably
be the last occasion for a general re-
union of those who stood ready to sac
rifice their lives in repelling the attacks
of the Indians, we confidently expect
that every one of the old defeders will
participate, and nothing will be want
ing on our part to make the visit a
pleasant and memorable one for them
and their families.
Arrangements will be made for
excursion trains, so that all the partic-
ipants can reach our city by 10 o'clock
on Saturday, August 22nd.

A FAIR, WHAT is A FAIR.
The Officers Have at Last got Ready
for Business.
One Thousand Dollars to be Given in
t=1 Premiums.

The officers of the Agricultural So
ciety held a meeting at the treasurer's 8
Office on Wednesday evening, and, aft
er good deal OF urging on the part Of
the secretary, decided to have Fair
this year that wonld eclipse all former
ones. To begin with they raised the
amount of premiums one-hundred per
cent. AS the amount paid last year
was nearly $500, it is safe to say that
the sum expended this year for big
pumpkins and nice tomatoes will be
in the neighborhood OF $1,000.
Then they agreed upon purse of $50
for match baseball game. This it is
thought, will induce the Sleepy Eye
and Golden Gate clubs to visit our city
at the society's expense and afford the
throng of visitors an exhibition of the
national game. A purse of $25 for a
bicycle race is also offered.
The unusual interest that is taken in
the success of the Fair by the people of
town also insures an Industrial and civ
'ic parade of good proportions, and Sec
retary Heideman further assures US that
the paintings of the Indian massacre,
which are now being painted by Messrs.
Gag and Schwendinger, will be on exhibi-
ton. The historic value Of these pictures
will cause then TO be of great attraction.
The Fair will be held during three
days, September 18. l9 and 20. The
premium list is now being issued.

The Late Mrs. Booth.

Mir. W. T. Stead, in the course of a memoir of the late Mrs. Booth. writes: That the Salvation Army is entering upon . new development is probably due more to her than to any single hu- man being. and in its new social bear ing we see the best and most enduring monuments to the memory of the saint lv woman who has at last been released from her sutferings. But that may also be said to be true of the Salvation Army itself The Army could no more have come into existence with out Mrs. Booth than could the family of sons and daughters who are now carrying on the Salvation work all over the world. No one outside can ever know how much all that is most distinctive of the Army is due directly to the shaping and inspiring impulse of Mrs. Booth; but even outsiders like myself can see that but for her it would either have been a failure or else it would have been merely one of the many small bat narrow sects which carry on a mission work in hooks anl corners of tho land. It was Mrs. Booth who made the Army the great instrument it has been of revealing to the world the capacities and resources of her own sex and it was Mrs. Booth who made the warmth of her love an other restraint of her prudence. and supplemented and supplemented the genius of her husband in such way us to enable him with her to do II work for which there is no parallel in our times"
