FIRST LYcEUM NUMBER.

Thursday evening Of this week New
Ulmites have treat coming in the form
of one of the Lyceum Course lectures.
DR.. E. L. Eaton will speak at Turner Hall
on Ghosts, COLLINS and Witches. DR..
Eaton is fascinating speaker and an
enormous crowd should greet his ap-
pearance, not only for the sake of the
pleasure of the evening, but also for the
purpose of supporting the movement to
bring better advantages to New Ulm.
The committee has big responsibility to
meet in financing these lectures and
concerts and their efforts should be made
easier by the generous support accorded
them by the citizens who are to receive
the benefit of the course. Tickets may
be reserved at the Pioneer Drug Store
without extra charge. Be sure to get
your ticket now if you have not already
provided yourself.

SEPTEMBER WEATHER.

September weather distinguished it.
self primarily by reason of it's being
rainless the latter half of the month.
Not thunderstorm or rain of any kind
marred the weather during the last 16
days of the month. There were, how
ever, four thunderstorms on the LIST,
10th, 18th and 18th respectively, which,
together with the dew that fell during
the month, brought the total precipi-
tation to sos inches. Another signifi-
cant fact about the weather was the
absence of frost, the thermometer regis
tering no lower than SO degrees on the
25th. The maximum temperature was
SO degrees on the 9Th and the mean
temperature was 1898 degrees There
weres7 clear days, IA partly cloudy and
9 cloudy. The prevailing wind was
from the south. xs.

CARL BERG QUITS HOTEL BUSI-
NESS.

A deal was made the other day whereby
the Berg Hotel was leased to Mr.. Black
ney of Tracy, MINI. who will assume
management Oct. 5th. Carl Berg who
has conducted the hotel business here
for the past forty years, fifteen years in
the present building will move his family
to Mankato or the Twin Cities for the
winter and after that time will move to
Montana.
Mr.. Blackney the new proprietor has
been conducting the Antlers Hotel at
Tracy for the past few years, but dis
posed of that month ago. He is an
experienced hotel man and will aim to
conduct the Berg Hotel in the most up
to-date manner. Whether he will make
any change in the arrangement of the
building or not has not been learned.
The departure of Mr.. Berg from the
hotel business marks the passing of one
of the oldest business men from Sleepy
Eye. On April 26, 1874 he opened the
Minnesota House, conducting hotel
and bar for twenty-five years. Fifteen
years ago he built the big Berg Hotel as
it stands today. During all the time of
being here Mr.. Berg has striven to give
his partons only the best of service and his
hotel bears high reputation. The hotel
has thirty-two bedrooms, a large Office
parlor, dining room and sample room.
Very few hostelrys in the state in towns
of this size are as we'll and completely
equipped.
The removal of Carl Berg from Sleepy
Eye takes an old pioneer and citizen of
sterling worth from among us. He and
his estimable family have the best wishes
ct all for future success and happiness
wherever they go.-Sleepy Eye Herald
Dispatch.

the reckless driving that is tolerated right
here and that we owe it to ourselves to
take this stigma from the fair name of the
city even if it should become necessary
to arrest and punish some of the offenders.
DR.. Schoch also strongly urged the en-
forcement not only of the regulations
with regard to the speed but also of all
other rules. Mr.. Retzlaff stated that he
was glad that the sentiment in favor of
enforcing auto rules and regulations is SO
strong and that he could promise that
the city council would 60 after the Offend
ers vigorously. A committee, was ap-
pointed to bring this matter before the
council also.
] F. H. Krook who was present called
attention to the University Extension
Course, the first number of which a
lecture by DIR. Eaton, will take place
Thursday evening. He urged the mem
bers to give this lyceum course not only
moral but also financial support.
A business mems luncheon was another
thing that received favorable considera-
ton at the hands of the club and the
entertainment committee was given full
authority to go ahead and arrange for
such luncheon some time during the
month. The luncheon is to be served
about $50 in the evening and after the
repast matters of general interest per-
tanning to the city are to be discussed by
local speakers.
Toward the close of the meeting
Albert Steinhauser brought up the matter
OF beautifying the city of New Ulm and
securing or at least making accessible the
beauty spots in the immediate vicinity
OF the city and suggested that land
scape gardener be consulted to work out
plan and system which should be
followed in the future. Mr.. Retazlff
warmly seconded this suggestion and
stated that as far as identifying the
streets was concerned New Ulm is back
number, that Owatonna and other places
OF the size of New Ulin have simply out
classed us and that it is high time that
we take the initial move in this direction.
Others spoke favoring beautifying the
city and the matter was finally disposed
OF by referring it to Charles Vogtel, N.
Hennlngsen, Jos. NJ. Arbes, members of
the Park Board and Fred w. Johnson
and Albert Steinhauser to make invests
cations along these lines and make report
at the next meeting of the club.
Chairman Somsen reported that Chas.
Emmerich, Theo. Schonlau, Edgar
Week, Louis G. Vogel and F. P. Starr
had joined the club since the last meet
ing.

AUTO ovERTURNs,

While trying to make too sharp turn
at the Hangartner corner on the road to
Sleepy Eye, Charles Roth of Lamberton
managed to overturn the car he was
driving which fell over on the left side.
breaking the left front and left hind wheel
and damaging the top and the windshield
slightly. The occupants of the car were
thrown out and all escaped with scare
except Mrs. Roth who had several ribs
bent, caused no doubt, by the Others
falling upon her.
The occupants of the car were Mr.. and
Mrs. Charles Roth, Mr.. and Mrs. Will
liam Feige, and Miss Minnie OFT, all of
Lamberton. Miss OFT is a daughter of
Mrs. Carl OFT of this city and is working
at Lamberton at the present time and the
party drove down to spend the day with
Mrs. OFT, arriving here during the course
OF the forenoon. They started on the
home trip at five o'clock and the acct
dent happened not more than ten minutes
later, about three miles from town.
Directly after the accident Hubert
Berg and Fritz Kretsch passed by in the
formers car on their way to New Ulm
and they came to the assistance of the
wrecked ones. A few minutes later
William II. Gieseke came along also and
with the two cars the Lamberton party
was brought to town except Mr.. Roth
who staid behind to guard the car. Gle
seke and Kretsch returned as soon as
they could with wagon and an auto and
brought the derelict to New Ulm. Mrs.
Roth's injuries are not very serious altho
they are quite painful and she decided
that it would be best for her to go home
with the others and they all left on the
1889 train on the Northwestern. Mr..
Roth is rural mail carrier out of Lam,
berton. The damaged car is six
cylinder machine.

In the FIRST decisivs naval engage,

the ccnstitutionaIist grmboat Tampicc
was sunk by the fedora. gun5oat Guer-
zero in a battle near Topolobampo yes
terday, according to a report received
today by the Navy Department from
Admiral Howard.
The United State vessels New Orleans
Perry and Preble witnessed the con-
fifct- The New Orleans stood by tc
rescue the crew Of the disabled Tam
pico.
Surgical assistance was given to the
crew of the Guerrero by the New Or.
leans.
The. battle was distinct victory for
the federals The Guerrero was then
gunboat, and the Tampico. formerly q
federal vessel. was seized by the rebels
about three months ago
This was the first decisive naval en-
gasement between the two forces. This
leaves the constitutionalists practically
without naval power.
That the casualties were heavy was
believed in the Navy Department to-
day. While neither vessel carried
large crews, II was believed that the
Guerrero's big four-inch guns and two
three-pounders must have slaughtered
at least fifty men. The sunken vessel
carried only two four-inch guns, with
six six-pounders and one torpedo tube
