cursion For Sunday.

All indications at this time point to
a very large attendance at the golden
jubilee of the New Ulm Turnverein,
which is to take place Friday, Satur-
day and Sunday of this week in the
hall in this city. For several months
the members of the society have been
working on the program and the vari-
Gus features of the entertainment that
is to be provided for the members here
in this city as we'll as for the large
number of visitors that is expected.
The expensive decoration of the in
terror of the hall was done that it
might present good appearance and
as a completion of the work of fifty
years, as it stands it is a perpetu al
monument to the devotion that the
members of the Turner society have
had to their institution and the preser-
walton of those characteristics of the
old country that have made them dis
tinct from most others.
The program for the event will open
Friday, as has been stated in the Re-
view and will continue for three days,
ending Sunday evening. or rather ear
ly Monday morning, for there is to be
dance which will last until time for
the departure of the Twin City dele
cations for their homes on the early
morning trains.
There is to be an excursion from the
Twin Cities on Sunday, but this is not
in connection with the anniversary of
the founding of the society, but is the
work of interested parties who are out
for what money they may be able to
make off of the enterprise. The ex-
cursion will arrive too late to enjoy
any Of the events and will depart too
early in the evening to allow those
who come an opportunity to share in
any of the events of the evening. The
excursion has not been encouraged by
the society of this city, in fact it is
deprecated and looked upon somewhat
as an imposition.
The society is getting out a very at
tractive and complete souvenir of the
event and a history of the organiza-
ton in thisc since its inception, and
this practically covers the history of
the city itself, as the founding of the
society is almost contemporary with
the founding of the city and the Incl
dents and tragedies of the city are in
fact SO intermingled with those of the
society that they are practically one.
The compilation of this matter is the
work of Eduard Petry, who has been
assisted in the details relative to the
history by the remaining members of
the originators of the organization,
and it is considered to be practically
complete and accurate.
| Attention is called to the fact that
the meeting Sunday evening in the
theatre is to be for the public and all
will be welcome. There will be a mum.
Der of notable addresses by members
of the New Ulm society as we'll as by
some of the national officers, and be.
sides this there will be presentation
of the new flag, the gift of the ladies,
which will be accompanied by consid.
cradle ceremony. The evening will be
greatly enjoyed by all who take the
trouble to be present, as it will give
them an idea of the vicissitudet through
which the city has come to its present
enviable position among the cities o.
the state. All of the speaking will be
in German, which is the accepted Ian
i guage OF the society wherever it il
found.
