The State Historical society has de-
cided for the people of Hanska that the
name of their town comes from the
Sioux language and means long. It
probably came originally from the lake
| which bears that name, as it is very
long lake. People who thought that
Hanska was >Swede will find themselves
very much mistaken. The name is very
appropriate.
On Wednesday evening of last week
Eugene Pfeferle was surprised by a
number of bis friends who had remem-
| bered that Gene was not too old to have
birthdays and wanted to celebrate with
him. The party consisted wholly of
young men, many of whom had their
musical instruments with them and fur
nished several selections for the party
during the evening. Mr.. Pfefferle was
prepared for them in the line of refre.h-
ments and served them to the entire sat-
isfaction of all. 1t was an occasion very
much enjoyed.
A travelling man tor wholesale
house remarked to the writer the other
day that there was no business firm in
New Ulm that he wouldn't like to sell
goods to, for said he,. 'sthe credit Of
them all is as good as wheat" This is
something that cannot be said of every
town in the state. 1t IS true however
the merchants of this city are very con-
servative buyers and have established
their credit wherever New Ulm is known.
It is a good thing not only for the
merchants but fort be city.
The Review last week had strange
printer employed for a few days and he
got things pretty badly mixed up in sew
eral instances. The most noticeable
place was the mixing up of the Court
land correspondence with the New Ulm
news. 1t made very strange reading,
but the edition was run off before the
mistake was discovered. 1t seems that,
| try as hard as you may to get ont errors
before the paper is printed they never
will appear, but as soon as the edition is
printed every one of them stands out
like wart on mans nose.
On Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs
day occurs the annual meeting of the
directors of the German Catholic Aid
society of Minnesota, at Chaska, M1nn.
Those who are in attendance from this
city are Rev. Sandmeyer, ]. Haubrich,
]. Henle, Geo. Graft, Jos. Henle, Frank
Schubert, Carl Forster Sr., A. Sperl, Ed.
Baer, Christian Sprenger, John Wilt
scheck, Geo. Buchner, Wd. Eibner, and
i Andrew Amann. The German Catholic
Aid society was organized IN 1868, and
now has about 5000 members IN Mime
sofa. Besides having social features, it
is an insurance organization.
The Nicollet county falr at st. Peter
seemed to be decided success from the
crowds that attended it On Saturday.
The races appeared to be the main at
traction, but the exhibits were very
good, but in some lines, especially in
that which the ladies had to do, they
were inferior to the Brown county fair.
1 The merchants of the city had a large
and excellent variety of exhibits that
attracted attention and the stock exhibit
was good. The same side shows that
were here could be found there except
| Ko-Ko-Kio had lost his former master
and was drawing crowds by means of a
new traveller from the wilds of Patagon-
la. In The races the track record of
two-thlrty-seven was lowered to two
thirty three.
| The city of Madison this state suff-
cred severely by fire on Sunday, two en-
tire blocks being completely wiped out.
The loss is estimated at about $4,000.
