New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1904-09-21

Eugene A. Pfefferle, proprietor of
the Reliable Drug Store, celebrated
his birthday Sunday by entertaining
few of his friends in the evening at
his home on German street.
Julius and Charles Mielke left yes
terday over the Northwestern for
Baker City, Or. They intend looking
over the country and if they are IA
vorably impressed moving their fami-
lies into the western state.
Mr.. and Mrs. M. Hummel are to
leave October l for Portland Or, where
they will make their future home with
their daughters Misses Emma and
Bertha. Mr.. and Mrs. Hummel are
among the earliest residents of New
Ulm and their old friends wish them a
safe journey and happy life in Ore
gon.
Rev. c. r. Upton, erstwhile Baptist
minister at Sleepy Eye and later and
up to within a year ago editor of the
Hanska Herald, was married on the
9th of September to Miss Addie E.
Pike of Lowell, Mass. They will live
in North Conway, N. H., where Mr..
Upton is now pastor of a Baptist
church.
Without warning death claimed
Frank Exner last Wednesday evening
while he was sitting on the porch of
his mothers home. He was Is years
old and had already suffered two
attacks of hemorrhage of the lungs.
Wednesday he was again stricken.
Thefuneral services were held Saturday
morning from the Catholic church.
J. G. Peterson of Sleepy Eye, came
down Wednesday evening to make
sure of being here at the beginning of
the fair. He had some very choice
apples in the fruit exhibit, on which
he took three first and two second pre-
miums. Mr.. Peterson has quite a fine
orchard and raises several varieties
of apples. Friday Mrs. Peterson and
| son came down and spent the day at

Senator Geo. w. Somerville was at
the point Of death one day last week
and a consultation of physicians was
called to determine what was best to
do for him. The crisis in his disease
has been passed and he is on a fair
way to recovery. Mr.. Somerville was
attacked with this trouble while he was
out in Dakota hunting, and his many
friends in the county will be pleased
so know that it is not to terminate
| seriously.
When the mornings become cool one
is apt to think of having fire in the
year when the chimney has been I'M
used for so long, building a fire, without
first cleaning out the chimney and see
ing that all is in good repair, may be
the means of causing a costly confia-
grafton. All rubbish around the
premises should be burned and the
chimney cleaned and inspected for pos
sible breaks before hot fires are built.
The marriage of Hugo Berndt and
Miss Buehla HlnJon took place at the

THE LORD MAYORS FRILLs.
A Position of Considerable Dignity
in British Empire.

AS matters now stand the lord
mayor takes precedence not only
Of all peers but of the reigning
sovereign within the precincts OF
the city, says the ST. James Ga
zette. He has the right of private
audience with the monarch and.
as Il privy councillor, is summoned
on the death of England's ruler.
To become lord mayor he must
have previously served as an al
derman. If on election he refuses
the civic chair he has to pay a fine
of E1,000. No one Is chosen who
has any blot on his private charac-
ten, and in case of bankruptcy or
compromising with creditors an al
derman is passed over until he bas
paid 20 shillingS im the pound tc
his creditors.
The election of mayor is subject
to the approval of the crown, ana
if any public fast is:erdered by the
sovereign, the mayor and corpora
tiOn attend st. Paul's cathedral in
black robes. The lord mayor has.
the badges of royalty attached to
his Office in the scepter, he swords
of Justice and mercy and the mace.
The gold chain which he wears is
one of the most ancient honorary
distinctions and can be traced L.
eastern origin and manner of con
ferring dignity, instances of whicl
VIE find i'm the Old Testament.
j. Formerly the mayors during
their term Of Office used to resid,
in their own private houses whicl
in past days were always in TN,
E city itself, and therefore within
easy access of Guildhall Now u,
mansion house is set apart 20
: the lord mayors residence for tn,
/, year. The first stone Of the man
sion house was laid in 1879. tn
house and the furniture costini
E70,9S5 lbs. I'd. wv .o
The. annual expenses cOnnecte'
with the Office amount TO abou
! f25,000, of which about 10000 j
: the sum allowed by the corpora
; ton, the remainder coming out o
| the mayors private purse.
