September Morn" displayed herself
to decided advantage in New Ulm,
Saturday evening, at the armory but it
seems that many of the citizens were
rather shy about coming out and seeing
the comic opera. The show was pleasing
throughout. The singing and dancing
was of the very latest and the costumes
were pleasing and above all appeared
to be clean. A very small house greeted
the company and the reason for this
must have been pure and unauthorized
shyness. There is one consolation and
that is those who stayed away missed a
good show.
Mrs. Siegel who had planned to make
trip to the Orient with Mrs. M. A.
Bingham has decided not to go. Mrs.
Silverson of Minneapolis had also planned
to be of the party but finally decided
that on account of the many cases of
illness among children she could not very
well leave her little son Charles at home
and it did not seem wise to take him and
the ladies abandoned their plans in view
of the generally unsettled conditions pre-
vailing the world over. Mrs. Bingham
expects to leave shortly but will perhaps
shorten her trip, taking only such time
as is necessary to transact the business
she has to attend to.
Another and rather novel form of
graft was attempted at Lamberton one
day last week. 1t seems that stranger
came into town and palmed himself off
as a wealthy man with the intention of
purchasing land. He issued a check
for $1,000 in part payment for a piece
of land, which was later learned to be
on fictitious bank in Iowa. Before the
papers could be drawn up, the CRATER
presented another check at the bank
but when asked to use the telephone to
establish his financial credit, decided
that he did not need the money. The
first train was his friend and he promptly
made use of it.
''Uncle Toms Cabin in movies
appeared at the armory, Sunday after
noon and evening, and the pictures
were we'll patronized. It is perhaps a
good thing that the performance was in
pictures or someone might have stopped
a brick. The picture themselves were
passable but the films must have been
used innumerable times and were in
very poor condition. The many breaks
were sandwiched by the Gust Moment
Please" and "Do your Feet Ache
slides and to be sure ones feet not only
ached but his entire anatomy ached to
get hold of the films and put them out
of existence.
Mr.: and Mrs. William Silverson,

Silverson will continue his journey
