Once year there is general exodus
of hunters and drivers from the city to
the surrounding country to give chase to
the festive cotton tall. This is
known as ''Treibjagd" and is looked
forward to with anticipation by all
sportsmen who enjoy an outing with
congenial spirits. Last Sunday was the
eventful day this year. It was the lure
of the "Hasenpfefer" that succeeded in
prying about seventy of our good citizens
loose from their comfortable homes to
join in three driving hunts" that were
pulled off. @
In addition to these large hunts, quite
a number of hunters went out individually
or by two's and threes and it is safe to
estimate that fully 100 gunners were
abroad Sunday The largest Hasen-
treibjagd' was staged by the friends Of
the Brown County Fair Association who
went out for the avowed purpose Of
securing enough Dummies to be served
as "Hasenpfefer" at the annual Turkey
Shoot and Deer Rattle to be held at the
Fair Grounds next Sunday.
Brigadier General Ferdinand CFone
had his forces marshalled early and by
8 o'clock they made their getaway in
10 gaily decorated automobiles. 'Heipie"
Somsen as decoration committee ofSone
did splendid work in the matter Of
bedecking the automobiles and also the
grounds on Crone's farm near Swan Lake
where the midday meal was relished.
It would be unfair not to make special
mention of the huge preparations made
by the commissary department in charge
of Wiener Captain J. A. Ochs ably
assisted by Rear Admiral Sauerkraut
Pat McHale. A dray was necessary to
tote the stuff out to camp. There were
not less than 10 gallons of Sauerkraut, 80
lbs. of Wieners, 10 gallon jar Of pork
chops, 10 gallons of pickles, 20 loaves Of
rye bread, two baked hams. liberal
supply of liquid refreshments and only
4S men to dispose of it. They did not
succeed so well might be desired altho
the most strenuous efforts We're made.
One of the party was sick abed the next
day and it is confdentially claimed by
some who say they know that he became
indisposed by reason of his efforts to.
consume the entire visible supply ofSauer-
kraut.
Macho and Kraus furnished the
music on two melodious 'come-to-me-go
from-me's''. Chaplain L. B. Krook saw
to it that the proper decorum was main
tanned at table. Then there were fire
works and an official staff photographer
and masquerading. J. F. Armstrong
carried off the honors in the latter stunt.
He was SO thoroly disguised that he
needed an introduction to his friends.
Strange as it may seem nobody at
tempted the dummy hug" altho the
musicians were ready and willing to
play all the latest dances.
In addition to the fun and merry
making the hunters found time to
make two drives and bag IS rabbits.
It is claimed by some who know that
enough of the bunny tribe managed to
to get away so that another party would
find little trouble in getting as many
as were bagged by the Fair outfit.
The sequel to this wholesale slaughter
will be staged at the Fair Grounds next
Sunday afternoon when the annual
turkey shoot and deer rattle will take
place. The Schel1 Brewing Company
was kind enough to donate deer for
the occasion this year again. It should
be borne in mind by all the wide awake
citizens of Greater New Ulm" that the
money realized next Sunday will flow
into the Golfers of the Fair Association.
one Of the most laudable institutions
the city boasts. If the Fair manage
ment receives the proper encouragement
on this occasion it is possible that they
may decide to build new grand stand
next year, something that is sorely
needed. Do not fail to be present at the
Fair Grounds either in person or by
proxy. The event promises to be both
interesting and exciting. "a
There will be County Convention Of
School Teachers held at Springfield next
Saturday. Co. Supt. Kennedy expects
to be IN attendance in fact, will probably
leave for the west end Of the county q day
or two before the meeting. Springfield
was chosen for the gathering because the
train service IS most convenient.
