Another gala night on the lake

ing when the band gave another
one of it's delightful concerts from
the launch, Simplex, which was
given by the boat company to the
band for that night The shores of
the lake were lined with people,
while the waters at the head of the

New Ulm Review: H. L. Beech
er arrived home Wednesday from
Chicago and is again at the helm in
the Northwestern depot in this
city. He was called to Chicago
with a large number of other agents
to assist in handling freight while
the regular men were out on a
strike. He tells a good story Of
that experience aud the liberal way
in which the railroad dealt with the
temporary freight handlers. Free
lemonade, free cigars and a free
night at the theatre. To some OF the
section men who were called there it
was a revelation and will be one Of
those mile posts that mark the var
ious events of life time. The strike
was settled without i'll feeling and
the traffic has been resumed as
though never interrupted.
Redwood Falls needs from 10 to
Is more tenement houses. During
the past week bunch of from four
to six travelling men were looking
up the matter of bringing their
families to this city, where they
could be with them at least two
days a week, but in each case it was
the same old story that house
could not be secured Eeah one Of
the travelling statesmen were willing
to paw from ten to twenty dollars
per month for such a residence as
they desired, and this price ought
to induce people who have money
and who desire to invest it, to erect
the tenementS at once, because the
rental price offered would yield a
good interest on the investment
Who will start the proposition, and
assist in bringing number of fam
lilies to Redwood Falls?
