Heavens Artillery.
Burg's Battery silenced by an Unlocked for
Composition,

The picnic of Burg's Battery, New
Ulm's artillery, had to be postponed, as
the heavenly artillery had an older
claim on last Sunday. The latter artil-
lery had real picnic lasting two days,
bringing into service all sorts of arma-
ment, keeping up a steady fire with a
short interval Sunday evening. Burg's
battery will have their picnic next Sun
day, June 18th at Hermann's Park when
no interference is looked for.
: The thunder storm of Sunday and
Monday has played havoc in New Ulm
and vicinity. Over 100 fuses of the cleo.
trio plant were burnt out and the tele-
phone service has also suffered consider
ably: Lightning struck the steeple of
the Evangelical Friedens chulch Monday
morning shortly after six o'clock, and
went down the entire length of the struc-
ture in creased lightning fashion. The
damage done is trihing, only the tran
som and the door of the front entrance
being shattered. 1t must have Deen a
magnificent display of fireworks, as the
electric spark seems to have dispcrted it
self playfully by branching out in diff
ferent directions. Our electricians are
all at sea about the manner IN which the
lightning entered and found and exit.
In J. F. Neumann's store small sized
panic was caused by the electric current
Sunday morning. As it is, no serious
damage was done, only four fuses being
burnt out. lightning also struck the
residences of Kitzberger and of HUBERT,
without doing any damage worth men,
tioning.

Blind Pigs in Fairfax.

While as result of the last election.
the village of Fairfax has gone dry, the
so-called "blind pigs" were running in
full blast, to the great chagrin of the
goody -goody people, whose ambition it
Is to have no saloons, but to get their
fill of bad whiskey at home or in con-
venient places, not so easily accessible
to the every days citizen.
Well, those good people employed
men, detectives they style themselves, to
detect the violators of the law. The de-
teetives found evidence enough to pre-
fer charges and the managers of the
"blind pigs" were indicted. At the pres
ent term of district court they were
found not guilty by jury and thus
ends an important and interesting chap
ter in the history of Fairfax No Jury
will convict the men accused of running
"blind pigs" if the testimony consists of
the evidence of the detectives onI;, who
admitted that they got drunk in the re-
sorts run by the accused, while other
witnesses testified that they got some
thing to drink, but were not able to
state whether it has been beer or some
thing else. As it is the Fairfax COM
mdnlty Is minus the license money, and
citizens get whatever they wish for IN
the line of soft or hard drinks
The Young Ladies Friday Musical

There will be fine sport in town next
Sunday, when the Golden Gate nine will

Ulm team at the Driving Park. Practice

therefore good game might be expect
ed.
A large number OF delegates to the

the representatives Of the local fire de-
partment at the annual state convention
of iremen, convened at Austin yesterday.
The deliberations will last three days,

1t is this a convention worth having, a
jollier set of men, a more liberal and
jovial body has never come together, and
besides this the members are all repre-
sentative citizens. There are about $50
delegates to each convention and fully
as many friends of the iremen, some of
them alternates, go with the delegates to
participate in the deliberations and 9TH
erwise. New Ulm has delegated her best
to that convention, and this is saying a
great deal for them, as our entire fire de-
partment consists of good men only.
Here's success to your mission.
