REORGANIZATION.
The Wisconsin, Minnesota & Pacific
Road Undergoes One.

There was a meeting in the Office of
Receiver Truesdale, of the St. Louis
road in Minneapolis Monday, for the
purpose of recognizing the Wisconsin,
Minnesota & Pacific railway. Last
summer the road was sold under a
foreclosure, and was brought in by the
owners of the bonds, the Rock Island
road, and the Minneapolis & St. Louis
road has since been operating it. The
officers elected yesterday were: R. R.
Cable, of Chicago, president; A. E.
Clarke, vice president; Joseph Gaskell,
treasurer; L. B. Arnold, secretary.
The Minneapolis & St. Louis road will
continue to operate the road, which
runs from Morton, Mimi, to Water
town, S. D., and from Red Wing to
Mankato. The corporation had to be
organized in this State to enjoy full
rights and franchises.

GRANTS HEAD SPLIT.
A Row In the New Ulm Jail Results
Badly for Grant.

( = & i
Reports from New Ulm indicate
that there was q general free-for-all
row among the prisoners in the Brown
county Jail, and that the administra-
ton papers in that city are attempt
ing to hush the matter up, as several
charges from other counties, we're
badly bruised and knocked out, and
the sheriff has no particular desire in
allowing the sensational occurrence to
be brought before the attention of
the county commissioners.
From as near as the GAZETTE can
learn there is huge half-breed Mex
lean, sent up from Lyon county, with
in the Jail and who was the cause of
the trouble. He is an ugly fellow, if
reports can be relied on, and seems to
delight in getting into quarrel with
every inmate of the Jail. On the day
mentioned he started the wand had
one or two on his side,and they seemed
to be ready to clean out the Jail. Chairs
and every other instrument lying loose
around the jail were used as weapons
for the onslaught and defense, and
among the prisoners who Jared badly
was U. S. Grant, of this county, who
is wanted on the charge of wheat steal
ing, forgery, etc. Grant received a
blow from a chair across his head that
laid open an ugly cash, and necessi-
tated the calling of a physician, but
probably not at the expense of this
county. Other prisoners also received
similar injuries, and when the sheriff
and his deputies arrived on the scene
nearly everyone but the Mexican
seemed to have had enough. The New
Ulm Review, an administration organ,
reports that "a row occurred between
the prisoners in the Jail, the result of
which is that the Mexican is doing
time for few days on bread and
water"
While Sheriff Anderson and his dep
uties can in no way be blamed for
what might occur in every Jail the &C.
currence is another one of those many
object lessons to the commissioners Of
this county that county Jail is need
ed in the county, where county pris-
oners may be isolated from those of
other counties, and where the sheriff
of this county may know the DISPOSE
tons of the prisoners, and treat them
according to their nature.

out of the hands of the receiver. They
are both enthusiastic over the pros
poets of Redwood Falls, and desire
that the road be built into this city,
and the division shops loeated at this
place, where, they contended they
properly belong. They stated that
the road would pass out Of the hands
of the receiver on or about June 18th,
and in the meantime the citizens OF
Redwood Falls should make arrange
ments to apply for the road as soon
as the reorganization takes place. That
it should be constructed into this city,
they said, all of the officials were
strongly of the opinion as Redwood
Falls ls the only town between Min
neapolis and Watertown of any i'm
portance, so far as the freight and
passenger traffic is concerned.
AS the Mankato Review states, one
of the first steps that the Rock Island
people will take is generally conceded
to be the extension of the Cannon
Valley branch from that city to con-
nectiou with the main line to the Pa
ciic. Heretofore Morton was consid-
cred to be the objective point, but
there is a growing sentiment in favor
of Redwood Falls, and we should not
be surprised if that city was made a
point on the road. New Ulm will un-
doubtedly be included when the ex-
tension is made, and as two bridges
can be avoided by keeping on this
side of the Minnesota river to that
point, the probabilities are that this
will be done.

A DISAPPEARING STAR.
Sister Emily Birum Is Starred by
Charity Chapter.

At the regular meeting of Charity

the Masonic asylum, last evening, the
exercises partook of the nature of
farewell reception to Mrs. Andrew BIZ
rum, who has held the station of
Electa, the fifth point of the Stare ever
since Charity Chapter was organized.
There was an informal musical and
literary programme. in which Misses
Ada Adams and Mabelle Clayson, and
Till Tibbetts took part, after which
Past Worthy Matron Mrs. OIL. Dorm
berg, in very clever speech, present
ed Mrs. Birum with a handsome
brooch emblem of the order, it being
gold star, with the five points of
Adah, Ruth. Esther, Martha and
Electa, and their various insignias en-
graved on the points. The brooch
was given by the members of the Or
der as testimonial of the esteem in
which Mrs. sBirum is held, and in ap-
probation of her attention to the pc
sition of Electa, as we'll as to the
success of Charity Chapter. Worthy
Matron Dornberg, in making the pre-
sentation spoke as follows:
SISTER B1RuM:-Three years ago we
met in this room to organize what is
now known as Charity Chapter No.

ming you have been with us and have
been faithful and Jealous in the dis
charge of your duties. When at times
we have been respondent the
sunshine of your happy nature has
dispelled the gloom lowering DER us;
and it seems but fitting at time like
this, when happiness and prosperity
beam upon our order and you are
about to take up your abode in an
other part of the State, that we give
some expression to the love we bear
for you. 1 have the honor of present
ing you with this little token. It is
an emblem of the star which shall
guide us all to the New Jerusalem
May it ever be to you a bright and
shining beacon and lead you into the
society of sisters and brothers in your
new home.
Mrs. Birum was so surprised over
the handsome compliment that she
could find but few words to give
thanks, but those words were touch.

greet, she said, in leaving Redwood
