and attractive group of subjects. All
citizens, young and old, should make

means . goodly sum will be realized
for the Celebration and fewer direct

tant also that thoss-who intend using

that if the sales are great enuf to clear
up the amount now on hand before the

order new supply to have in stock

The most interesting picture Of the
lot 10 that Of New Ulm . 1t vas before
NE Massacre. Tho view 10 from tho
hills Of The Minnesota and takes In tho
whole valley lying between, The river
and the heights on the south and west
Of tho city. In the immediate fore
ground 10 Geo tho thick woods of the
east banks Of the Minnesota with
Indian wigwsms among the trees and
) couple Of Indians stand looking over
The valley, wstohiug the growth Of the
white mems homes. Between them
4pd the object Of their gaze lies the
eurviug, blue Minnesota on which are
seen tseamboats and river barges and
on the terraced plain arc the homes Of
the early settlers. The picture was
made from . drawing which was the
work Of Julius Berndt, ST., who should
receive credit for It.
Another picture which gives US Of
today IN idea of the terrors of that
time IL one taken from . painting by
Anton Gag. The painting is now
owned by Nick Kleinschmidt of Man
ksto and is valued at $1,000. It de-
picts wildly the scene of an attack
upon New Ulm by the Indians.
Another card made from IN old
daguerreotype pictures the camp of
the refugees on the prairie, all of them
worn and anxious looking.
There are two portraits of Indians,
one of the friendly John Other Day
and the other of crafty Little Crow.
Two other portraits are of the early
settlers, one being a group OF nine of
the first corners in which the licensees
are very good. The other is d picture
taken at the time of the last celebra-
ton and shows the four surviving
settlers at that time holding the loving
cups which were then presented to
them.
The old log cabin on the Toterer
property on North German street
which stood after the destruction of
New Ulm forms the subject of another
card and the famous old Dskotsh
House with tho name of A. Setter over
the door 10 shown on another. The
old Stark House, . part Of which still
remains standing on Minnesota Street
shows next door south Of The Dskotsh
House. ......,
