now pending in the supreme court.
Thanksgiving in New Ulm.
Religious services, feasting, family
reunions, dancing and attending.
parties were the principal features
that marked Thanksgiving day in
New Ulm. A number of young folks,
clerks, bookkeepers and others, that
are working "abroad" and especially
students attending various schools
of learning, anxious to eat the turkey
at home and 10 get taste of mothers
pumpkin pie, arrived in this city
Wednesday most of them remaining
until Monday when they returned to
their respective places of employment
or schools.
| At the German Methodist church
union services were held in which a
number of local churches joined; Rev.
E. F. Wheeler speaking in English
and Rev. G. II. Sauter in German.
The Lutherans met in St. Pauls
church where Rev. c. J. Albrecht con-
Quoted the divine services.
Dancing was the principal feature
for the evening and every body seemed
to have been out for a good time,
judging from the large attendance at
all parties. The young unmarried
folks held the second of their club
dances at Woodman hall and the
event is reported grand social sue
cess. The Turner's and their friends
gathered at Turner hall and enjoyed
dancing until a late hour. Star hall
and Opera house were crowded with
| young folks. Dancing parties were
also held in Essig and the Milford
Club.
Possibly of all the people who spent
Thanksgiving in New Ulm and who
enjoyed it least were the few knights
of the Grip who unfortun ately did not
reach their home town in time to be
with their families
The weather in New Ulm and vicinity
was about the same we have been
having for wears back. If it had been
cold it would have been quite the
unusual thing in Minnesota. Last
year the temperature was abou. &C
above and for years it has ranged
between 20 and 40 above. The coolest
Thanksgiving were in 1904, when the
thermometer registered zero: in 1896
when it stood 7 below; and in 1895
when it was below.
