New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1902-08-06

B Hail Insurance. has been 8 good thing
this year, for considerable damage has
been done, not in q general way but in
small sections The past week has been
the worst Of the season and frequent hail
storms have been reported and some .ef-
ceptIonally large pieces of ice havefaHen.
Farmers usually realize after damage is
done that hail insurance is a good thing.
Farmers q have been offering very high
wages to idle men about the city but. in
q great many cases the offer has been
spurned and a price put upon labor that
is beyond any reasonable amount. Har-
vest has begun in earnest and these peri
patetic laborers know that they can ex-
tort large wages for few days, from
men whose crops are in danger Of being.
lost.
fhe contractors who are putting in the
city lighting find that they are unable
to complete the work and install the.
plant inside the time for which their
agreement calls, and have asked for an
extension. They have pushed the WORK
vigorously and apparently it has been a
physical impossibility to complete the
job in the time specified, the principal
reason being that they were unable to.
procure material. Under the circum-
stances 1t is not just that they should be.
held to the $685. day forfeit as the city
does not lose by the delay.
& VIM. Irle representing the Columbian
Lycemn Bureau was in the city yester-
day and made partial arrangements
towards securing course for this city.
The idea is to sell number Of season
tickets. The place has worked we'll in
other cities and should be good for this.
Instructive and interesting, lectures and
good concerts, entertainments that no

moderate cost. Such entertainments fur
nisb, in high degree, pleasure. culture
and instruction.. ~.

The Concordia band gives the last OF
its SeIieS of public concerts in German
park on. Thursday of this week and the
Cadet band will conclude its series or
the following Thursday. These concerts
have been thoroughly appreciated by the
people during the time they have LASTED
and the passing of them will be noticed
with regret. The thanks of the people
are due in large measure to these two
organizations for the time they have seer
fit to spend in gratifying the desire O.
the public for entertainment.
Reports from various sections of thu
state and from the DnkOtas lndll ate tina
there is going to be be, perhaps, the mos
generous yield of potatoes ever known
in these state. This will probably mean
that the starch factory will be in opera
ton again and the price of this necessit,
of life will be down within living reacl
of the majority of people. With plent,
of potatoes and corn if the wheat crol
should prove to be short the chances ar
THAT people would still have sufficient Il
keep life going and little for the luxu
ries Of existence. III
The New Store. made quite a hit will
the aluminium dollars and free pencil
and tablet souvenirs on the first of tn,
month. Last year this store gave as
souvenir new one-cent piece with al
aluminium band about it. These littl
souvenirs are to remind people tina
Zschunke & Schilling have been in bust
ness a year and the dollars they ar
giving away are good for their face yalu,
when ten dollars worth of goods hav
been purchased. This reduction lasts
only through the month of August ant
therdollars are good only as souvenir
f<after that date.
