Ulm at this season does not fail to at
tract the attention of strangers. DR..
Daniels OF st Peter in looking over the
Cottonwood valley near Schell:s last
Saturday said that in all his visits
about the state he never saw ANYTHING
that pleased him more.
Pie St. Paul Herald publishes sen.
lSatlonal yarn to the effect that ex.Goy.
I Ramsey. one of Minnesota's most hon.
ored citizens, has been blackmailed by
his former coachman, one Wilson Nj.
chols. The reasons are not given, but
it is claimed that $4,000 was the
amount first paid, and the man returned
for more money.
The existence of several cases of in
fictitious disease within the city limits
again calls attention to the need of a
public pest-house. In the present in
stance, the cases are isolated, but there
IS no telling what may happen, and it
is always we'll for town of this size
and character to be prepared against
the spreading of any disease whatever.
John Hinterman of Golden Gate was
a caller Friday. He is one of the far
mers OF Brown county, whose head is
level regarding the late political up
starts, and words can hardly express
his disgust for Donnelly and the theo.
ries that he advocates. He is also one
of the kind who believe that it mankind
in general would tend to business more
and politics less they would have less
cause for complaint. .
lThe prizes awarded during the fair
we're numerous. The first set for
bowling was won in the order given
by Peter Herian, Werner Bosch
and Gustave Fischer. The second set
went to John aauensteiu, F. Burg and
G. l.. Roos. Charles Toberer also won
a prize with a score of "a. Five prizes
were up on the hooks and ring arrange
ment. These were won by E. H. Busse,
a travelling man, R. Loheyde, A. 1. Sci
ter, VIM. Scheiderich and John Koch.
The silver spoon which went with the
best score on the pigeon-hole alley was
captured by Emil Wicherski.
The station agent at CORTLAND has
been getting himself into trouble. He
is also telegraph operator at that place
and in that capacity it seems he has
been endeavoring to enrich himself at
other peoples expense. The Empire
Mill Co. of this city has an agent
at CORTLAND in the person of Mr.. Doty.
To him they send daily market quota
lions, and it appears that the operator
would hold these messages longer than
was necessary, md in the meantime
buy wheat on the strength of the reports
and sell it again after the quotations
were delivered. This kept up for sever
al days, but, as is usually the case, the
mill company got an ipkling of the fact
that their interests were being trifed
with and made an investigation With
the foregoing developments. As re.
suit, the agent is very apt to be out of
job.
There is a mistaken impression
among advertisers in this city that they
must patronize the Review columns
merely as favor to its proprietors, and
not for the benefit that will accrue to
themselves. To correct this and dis.
place the idea that the Review is simp-
ly an object for charity and not worthy
the support that it receives, we would
state positively that the circulation of
the Review, while not. perhaps, the
largest in the county, is of nature
that makes it better advertising med
ium than any of its competitors. The
other papers of this city are read almost
exclusively by Germans. Now, not on
ly does the Review reach this same
class. but it goes into the families of
nearly all the English speaking people
of the city and county. Among the
former it is read fully as carefully as
any, and among the latter is the only
New Ulm paper that is taken. When
advertisers come to know this that
the Review subscription list bears the
name of every intelligent German in
New Ulm and vicinity - they will not
permit good advertising space to 90
unused. >.
The great event Of the past week at
Amort Bros bowling alley was the
brilliant effort made by Col. Bobleter,
one of the shining lights Of the CAPITOL
club, to capture the gold modal which
is held by the player making the high
