Col. Bobleter
Gets Orders.
Adiutant General Nuremberg Wires Him
to Recruit His Companies to
the Full Limit.
The Albert Lea Company the First to Re
spond. It Has Six Above the
Required One Hundred.

Saturday afternoon at three O'clock Col.
Bobleter, commander of the Second Reg
1ment Of the Minnesota Nationali Guards,
received the following telegram from
Adjutant General Nuremberg:
| "Recruit your companies to 100 men
at once.''
/ Within All hour afterwards, the Colon
ell had wired to every captain under bis
command, instructing them to make all
haste to swell the enrolment of their
respective companies to the required
number and report as soon as possible.
Albert Lea was the first to be heard
from. Early IN the evening Capt. Ed
wards telegraphed that he already had
lO6 men enlisted.
Here at home the militia boys at once
began to skirmish about for men who
were willing to tender their services.
and Monday morning regular recruit
ing office was opened by order of Capt.
Albert Steinhauser.
The adjutant generals order was az
follows: Il
The commanding officers of the infan-
try companies and artillery batteries of
the national guard of this state will
Immediately take steps to recruit
their commands UP to 100 men each.
All recruits above the maximum peace
footing of seventy-six men will be carried
upon the muster rolls as provisional
recruits, to be discharged in case their
services are not needed for field service.
Ex-melnbers of the national guard will
be prepared for this service.
General Muehlberg says that. this is
simply precautionary measure and that
no special orders have been received
from Washington. The impending CHS
is, however, is supposed to warrant the
step, and Col. Bobleter is of the opin-
ion that within day or two there will
be call for troops. I'll.
In such an event it would he no more
than just to Bobleter, that his regiment
should be the first to be put into active
service. tits not only the oldest, but 1t
is the strongest and by far the best fitted
for general duty. -. Ill

is 655. This must be increased to 1000

Peter Manderfeld Bids IN the Property for
Sc, $50.

L .
$3.50.
All Of the real estate Of the Phillip
Gross estate was sold at auction by At
torney Albert Steinhauser Saturday fore
noon. g.
The first property offered for sale was
the Union Hotel located On. Lots 1 and
70 in Block So.
There were two bidders, Peter Man
derfeld, of New Ulm, and Mr.. Hidden,
who came here some months ago from
Germany and has been making strenu-
Gus effort to buy the property at pri-
waite sale for several weeks. VS.
The bidding started at $1,000 and
worked slowly up TO $3.50, at which
price it was sold, Nj. Manderfeld being
the successful bidder.
The property is subject to a lease held
by John Martin and binding until Feb
ruary, two years hence.
It is generally conceded that the
property sold for much less than it was
really worth.
The next lot to be sold was Lot 6 In
Block 81, south of Center Street. This
is the lot between VIM. r. Settlers and
Crafts and brought 1856. It was sold
to VIM. Brust.
The remaining lots, nine in all, we're
sold in a bunch to Col. Pfaender for
$40.
The Alcantara Arrives.
The Alcantara reached port at New
Ulm yesterday afternoon at 2 o'clock.
The crew looked as If they might have
passed through a war, but all felt we'll
and were proud of their trip. Rear Adj
miral T0berer expressed his satisfaction
with the boat to Review reporter as
soon as he landed. Had he been at the
head of the Indiana or Iowa he couldn't
have carried himself with any better
naval bearing than he did rs the pretty
little launch plowed up the, river to the
landing at New Ulm. His staff of com
modores all bore an equal look Of
triumph.
The trip was made in exactly five
days. The launch left St. Paul day
late Thursday forenoon at eleven o'clock.
Thursday night at shortly before twelve
Shakopee was reached. A good deal of
annoying trouble had been, experienced
with the engine, and the gallant craft
did not get away from the .town with a
wall around it, until noon the next day.
That night they arrived at Belle PLANE
and the next evening at Ottawa. Sunday
was spent in reaching Mankato Just
below and above Mankato the boat en-
countered the hardest work, and at vari-
Gus times the language of the crew
dropped its naval dignity and became
terribly empathic. All of Monday was
spent on the water in spite of the storm
and when night came they were within
twenty or thirty miles of home.
The entue distance covered is fully
five hundred miles. The time made,
therefore, can be considered exception
ally good. In fair water the boat aver
aged eight miles an hour.

One of the saddest deaths Of the year
was that of Mrs. E.. G. Koch, which oc-
CURED early yesterday morning. Two
weeks ago, Mrs. Koch was in apparent
good health. A trip to Glbbon to visit
her daughter resulted in the contraction
of a cold, and later in severe attack of
pleurlsy, ending after brief struggle in
death. Nothing that medical aid could
do to improve her condition was LETT un-
done, but it was all to no purpose. The
fever had to have its way, and loving
ties of endearment had to be severed.
Mrs. Koch was born: in Mecklenburg-
strelitz on the 18th of September, fifty
years ago. On the 9Th of June, 1855,
she became the wife of Mr.. Koch, and
from the day Of their union until this

form an example for all. Kind in dis

Port Townsend, Oct. PAT. Adney, q

news OF the probable loss OF the small
steamer Abbie Rowe In Norton sound.
The steamer had on board Il persons.

Boston. The party left st. Michaels

Gated on Golofrim bay, about 85 miles
north of ST. Michaels. Barring aoci.

After vainly waiting for some time,
Captain William A. Taylor, late en-
gineer of the revenue cutter Bear. and
NJ. F. Mclsing, formerly of San Fran
cisco, began search for the missing
steamer in the yacht Edith. They fol-
lowed the coast to st. Michaels with
out success.
Just before the Roanoke left st. Mi
chaels, Adney says, party arrived
from the north with a story to the
effect that the Indians had reported a
small steamer wrecked, stating that
they saw a small crowd of men on the
beach around fire. It was generally
believed that this must have been the
party from the Abbie Rowe.
Adney also reports that while search.
Ing for the missing vessel Captain Tay-

open boat several miles at eea. The
