The Bollmann Troupe.

Saturday and Sunday nights afforded
genuine enjoyment to the theatre goers
OF New Ulm. They were the evenings
for the appearance of the Bollmann The
atre troupe of St. Paul at Turner Hall
and the expectations of treat that had
been cherished by so many were more
than happily realized. In 'Hasemann's
roechter,' which was presented Saturday
evening, there is ample scope for the ta-
lent of each player and TO give all the in
tlividual credit that is due them would
encroach certainly upon our space. But
the prominent characters in the cast would
be shown an in Justice were their merits to
90 unmentioneu There IS Schober, for
instance - a whole comedy in himself
1t has been many years indeed since New
Tim people have had the pleasure of
witnessing the work of such a cultured
and humorous actor, in either English or
German as is this comedian of the Boil
mann troupe. With him every move ard
laugh Is natural, every detail in his role
carefully looked after, every sentence
and look nicely kept within the bounds
of everyday life. The stage egotism or
pompousness is thus lost and we have
only the authors intended character.
The humor is the humor of a man: the
acting, also, tage-setting is forgotten.
Mr.. Bollmann, himself. assumes a role
that is seldom taking, but he does ex-
ceedingly we'll by it. The stage ]ov,r
is not the one that all the world loves.
by any means, but Mr.. Bollmann puts SO
much of reality into his various posi-
tions that the audience naturally admir-
es if it isn't carried away. His emo
tional acting and ever his humorous por-
| trayals are also those of a well-schoOled
actor, who always aims to put his whole
soul into his lines. Rehfeld's comedy
work as the doctor in ''Gross- -stad fluff"
was one of the finest features of the per-
formance, while young Mr.. Loesch re-
ceived repeated applause for successful
ly carrying part that IS at least diff
cult if not agreeable. The ladies of the
troupe did exceptionally good work in
every role. They are plainly talented,
each and all or them.
If it should fail to the lot of the re-
publicans of Minnesota to select United
States senator from this state at the next
session of the Legislature, the suggestion
of the Waseca Herald is most timely
one. 1t says: "We have no axes to
grind-no personal ends to serve - no
friendships tosever- enmities to gratil
fy-nothing personal to gain or loose in
the selection of the next United States
senator. Looking at the matter from
the standpoint of those who seek only
the greatest good for the greatest number,
as we view it, we have no hesitancy in
saying that Hon. John Lind ought to
take the seat now occupied by Hon. w.
D. Washburn as soon as the latter shall
have served his time.''
Hoods Pills are tho best family cathar-
tic and liver medicine. Harmless, reli-
! able, sure.

A Remarkable Story.

A special dispatch from Hanover, Pa,
February I, to the Baltimore Sua, says:
"NIr. Jacob Mumma, the recluse, died
on Sunday evening at his residence on
the York road, about one mile from
Hanover. Since lS4S he was away but
once from his strange and dreary place
of abode, and on this occasion between
1854 and 1883, he visited England, and
while there received patent on a
watch and was offered $4,000 for the
right, but he wanted 100000 and got
nothing. This, in connection with a
love affair disappointment, preyed on
his mind TO such an extent that he be-
came decidedly eccentric and decided
to retire from society and live by him.
self He would only see few people
who had business with him, and these
were limited to five. In early life he min
gled in society and enjoyed himself 10
the fullest extent and worked on his
fathers farm.
His father, Samuel NIumma. who
died about seven years ago, owned the
place where he died, consisting Of q
farm, containing over 100 acres, three
story brick mill, widely known as
Mumma's mill, and q two-story, roomy
dwelling house. On his death it be-
came the property of Jacob and his
brother, Samuel B., who died about
one year ago, when it became
the property OF Jacob. Since
then he sold the farm to Samuel Bare.
who has been living in the house up TO
his death. Bills were out for the sale
of the mill property on Saturday last,
but the sale was postponed on account
of 9Ir. Mumma's illness. He had three
rooms in the house reserved for his
apartments.
In winter he would live entirely in
the cellar, by 10 feet Here he would
eat and sleep and in the summer would
occupy room on the second floor and
one above that on the third. He went
from one room to the other by the aid
of ladder, having holes cut through
the floor and ceilings, never goingin
any other part Of the house. Often at
night he would come from his haunt
and stroll over the farm in order to see
that all was well and at the same time
get little fresh air and exercise. Some
years ago he had casket made in
which he wanted to be buried. He had
some time ago imagined that rats and
mice might get at him while asleep and
had had high stills put to the casllet,
getting in and out with ladder. He
had tin box made and left in care of
the undertaken in which he wanted to
be buried. He had no use for a doctor,
preacher or barber. His hair was very
long.

W. *. Vanderbilt,s New Yacht.

The Liverpool Journal Of Commerce,
in speaking of the new steam yacht
Valiant which Mr.. st. Clair Bryne, Of
Liverpool, has designed for w. X. Van
derbilt, of New York, says: "The new
vessel Mr.. Brync has in hand is some
what of a leviathan in the pleasure
feet, and will be probably the largest
private yacht in existence. She is be-
ing built by Messrs. Laird Bros, Of
Birkenhcad, for Mr.. Vanderbilt, to re-
place the Alva Qun down and sunk
last year,, which vessel was also de-
signed by Mr.. Bryne. The new ship is
being built under cover, and is now in
frame, and, as far as size goes, she
really looks like an Atlantic liner. Her
chief dimensions are: Length between
perpcndiculars, 80 feet extreme beam,
SO feet; depth, 256 feet; tonnage about
2l00. She is being built with q cellular
bottom and will be fitted to carry 200
tons water ballast, if required, when
light from using coal. The propelling
power will consist of two sets of triple
expansion engines driving twin screws
(the latter being of bronco. The indi-
Gated horse power will be about 5000,
tins enormous power being required, as
the vessel has to realize a speed on
trial of Is knots fully loaded. II knots
being her guaranteed speed at sea
with very moderate forced draught,
while under ordinary conditions, with
ont any forced draught whatever, she
has to do fifteen. Her bunker capacity
will be about 700 tons. She will prob
ably be brig-rigged, and she will carry
two steam launches and four other
boats Teak will be used for her upper
deck and rails, and also for sheathinc
the deck houses and bulwarks. which
will be of steel. In order to realize the
high rate of speed required by Mr..
Vanderbilt, her model has to be very
fine, but at the same time seagoing
qualities and safety have not been sac
riied to pure speed. and the new ship
will be most perfect ocean cruiser.
Her cabin accommodations will, of
course, be large, and she is fitted with
4 complete electric plant, all in dupli-
cate. On the bridge she is to have two
powerful search lights, and her steer
ing gear will, of course, be steam, and
can be worked either from the bridge
or aft. On the quarter deck there will
be steam warping capstan, and for
ward steam windlass. 4 complete
lc making plant, with freezing room.
Will be lifted below, and she will also
Dc provided with fresh water condens-
er. Inc sanitary and supply pipes will

money nor ingenuity will be spared to
make this fine vessel perfect in every
way, and she will be a regular floating
