or Weschcke was introduced and in a
brief address welcomed the ASSOCIATION
to New Ulm and presented to the pres
ident the keys of the city assuring him
that nothing would be left undone to
make their stay here a pleasant one.
The response Of President Voss was pc.
cullarly felicitous. He quoted the old
adage that there is no place like home
but said that, judging from TIE recep-
ton accorded the convention here, it
would be necessary to revise the saying
so that it should read "there is no Dlace
like New Ulm.''
Saturdays forenoon session, the final
business meeting of the convention, was
devoted to the election OF officers and
the adoption of several minor amend
ments to the constitution. In the after
noon the entire party was taken for a
carriage drive out to the breweries and
through the principal streets of the city
and on Sunday were the guests of the
local ASSOCIATION at a picnic in Hermann
Park.
A special train of seven cars came
down from the twin cities over the Min
neapolis & St. Louis Sunday noon load
ed with excursionists and returned at
about s o'clock Sunday evening.
NOTES OF THE CONVENTION.
While none of the boys were arrested
it is said to be fact that R. N. Grad y
of St. Paul slept at the county Jail Fri
day night.
Without doubt the handsomest dele
gate IN the convention was Tom Hart, of
Minneapolis; although Frank Barbeau,
of St. Paul, comes in close second.
Everyone knows that the Irish do not
wear wooden shoes, but Tom Hart refer
eeing wrestling match in his stocking
feet is sight for the Gods.
The next meeting of the association
will be held IN Minneapolis. 8.
