Man Killed by Horses at Alvin Resort Barn
A young man, John Goettsche, was killed when two horses trampled him in a barn at Alvin Resort, West Newton. Rescue efforts failed to save him, and he died after suffering extensive injuries. The cause remains unclear though animal excitement possibly linked to earlier carcass disposal. Goettsche, 34, was nephew to Henry Goettsche of Sleepy Eye and had recently moved to New Ulm for work. Interment occurred at Buenger's Undertaking rooms.

Silk Thieves Strike Again in Local Silk Department Raid
Reported in New Ulm, silk thieves hit the Bee Hier Store silk department last Monday night, stealing plain colors and leaving fancy colors. The haul exceeds five hundred dollars. The robbers entered through a door bolt, moved the loot to Crone's barn, and fled unnoticed. Police suspect seasoned professionals linked to recent area robberies but no decisive arrest yet. The incident is tied to earlier raids on Gibbon and Friedel stores, with no confirmed connection to the Columbia Clothing Store theft.
