A special train stopped at she depot
Wednesday that contained some distin:
guished officials of the road. During
this stop the officials inspected the work
that is being done towards, making
for a new depot and also gave certain
orders for pushing the proposeiimprove-
ments to completion. They also looked
over the proposed park and concluded to
expend efforts of their own to make of
the park and depot grounds verltable
nook of beauty. The party consisted OF
Marvin Hughitt, president of the road,
IT, M. Whitman, general manager, W. II
Neumann, vice-president, S. sanborn
general uperintendent, Fl. R. McCul-
Tough, general freight agent, W. B
Kniskern, general passenger agent, W.
?. Cosgrave, superintendent, H. c. Gar
vim, general agent, and J. E. Blunt, CHIEF
engineer. Pres. Hughitt promised some
pleasing surprises for the citizens OF
New Ulm in the depot which they will
erect, and it is safe to say that it will be
one of the finest passenger structures
west of Chicago. Better than that, it
will be completed before snow flies.
The most severe hailstorm for the past
twenty years passed over a section OF
Bernadotte and New Sweden and COM
pletely laid waste all that lay within its
path. It began about two miles from
tile east line Of Bernadotte on the farm
of G.. P. Hall, and extended in about a
north-easterly direction toward the Nor.
wegian Grove. Its greatest width was
about two miles and the fields ever which
the storm extended looks like wilder.
