Buys Austin Foundry.

The Owatonna Chronicle says that
the Pishkey Brothers of Owatonna,
Joseph, August and Albert, have gone
into partnership and purchased foun.
dry at Austin. The transaction was
made last week and the new proprietors
will take possession this week.
These young men are now owners of
the foundry which in the past has been
part of the Hall Manufacturing Com
pany, at Austin. The Hall company
will continue to operate its machine
shops and the foundry will remain a
part of this manufacturing establish
ment although under the separate man
agement of the new firm.
The Pishkey boys are industrious,
hard working young men who will
doubtless make a success of their new
venture. They are experienced in the
foundry business, having been in the
employ of the Owatonna Manufacture
ing company for several years past.
They plan to remove with their respec-
tive families to Austin and make their
permanent homes in this city.
