Cedarburg News
December 7, 1887
Cedarburg, Ozaukee, Wisconsin

Our blacksmiths are now busy shoeing horses.

“Sander’s photos can’t be beat” so says everybody who have dealt with him.

The Cedar Creek is now frozen over and is always crowded with children.

Mr. Chas. GOTTSCHALK left last Monday for a pleasure trip to Chicago and the northern part of Michigan.

The ball at the Park on New Years eve promises to be a grand affair. Every dance held on that day in this city or town was always well patronized.

Dr. H. A. ALBERS of Mequon was in the city Saturday last and was a welcome caller at the NEWS office.

HENTSCHEL & JOCHEM will raffle a hereophone the coming Christmas. Tickets can be had at the store for the small sum of 25 cents.

Christmas goods are coming in daily to our merchants and they are busy at work making room for the many fine presents they wish to display.

Those wishing to buy Christmas presents should call at Jno. ARMBRUSTER’s Jewelry Store. By depositing a small amount of cash, goods will be kept until the holidays.

Messrs. Wm. ALTEN, Gus. HAUSBURG and Th. POUL of Chicago and Ernst ALTEN of Thiensville were in the city for a few hours last Thursday and came near missing the train.

Our farmers are now busy hauling their grain to the Elevators as long as the high prices prevail. Those having disposed of all are now at work hauling their cord wood to this market.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mr. SIMON of Grafton was in the city last Monday. Mr. S. was here for the purpose of engaging the Cedarburg Band to furnish the music for a grand Sylvester Ball at his hall on that evening.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
On the second Christmas day the first performance of our dramatical club will take place at the Turn Hall in the city. The play is entitled “Der Rehbock” and as we are informed by some of the members participating, will be an excellent play. Everybody should attend and encourage the club in their undertaking.
Wood choppers can find steady employment by applying at the farm of Mike HOLLAND about four miles west of Aug BOHRTZ’s corner, 200 cords of hard and soft wood at 75 cts per cord. Those wishing to keep house can also rent one very cheap if they reside too far and do not wish to return home every evening.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
KLUEBER & ZWICKER of the Cedarburg Knitting Works have lately received an order from a Chicago house for 1500 dozen of their renowned scotch gloves. They are employing a few hands now but will in a short time receive new machinery and a full force will be employed. They are enterprising young men and will surely meet with success.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A teachers meeting was held at our school house last Saturday and a number of outside teachers attended, though the weather was unfavorable. The meetings of the teachers of this county have been divided this winter, those of the upper portion of the county hold their meetings at Saukville and Waubeka and the lower portion in this city and at Thiensville.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The monthly meeting of the Fire Company was held last Friday evening. J. C. KUHEFUSS Jr. was elected trustee for the unexpired tern of R. PFLEGER, resigned. Two new members were admitted. New members are joining at every meeting and this city will soon have a company they surely can feel proud of.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Last Wednesday night at about 11 o’clock fire started in an ash barrel at the back part of Dr. ROSENTHAL’s house at Thiensville and in a few minutes, threatened to destroy the whole surrounding buildings, an alarm was quickly given and with the timely aid of the neighbors, men, women and children, the fire was soon extinguished and the firemen’s noble Captain, where Oh! where was he? -- an Observer
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We are informed by Dr. Wm. HENKELL that a sickness has been raging among some farmers’ horses in the town of Grafton, and which the Dr. claims to be some sort of diphtheria. The horse when taken sick, will die in less than twenty-four hours. Those having only a slight attack have been cured, but among Mr. D. BURHOP’s horses, the sickness was very severe and he lost two or three of his best horses, one of which was claimed to be the best mare in this county receiving first premium for the last few years at our County fair.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
During our stay at Port Washington attending the meeting of the board of County Supervisors, of which body the Mayor of Cedarburg is a member, we had occasion to call regularly at the establishment of our old acquaintance and friend John NEUENS, to strengthen the inner man. John has a sample room and is doing also a wholesome business in all kinds of wines and liquors. We believe that this is now the oldest business of the kind in the city and the proprietor has kept up his reputation as an honest dealer from the very beginning and whereby he has gained such success. His “forester” whiskey is the non plus ultra of a wholesome drink at the proper time, while other good brands can also be had. We advise all readers of the NEWS to call at Mr. NEUEN’s while visiting Port Washington whenever they may stand in need of a wholesome drink or wish to purchase wines or liquors at wholesale prices, which are as low as in the largest Milwaukee establishments.

IMPORTANT FOR OUR FARMERS

Attention is called to the change of the advertisement of H. MEYER, proprietor of the Ozaukee Co. Drain Tile Works, who offers to dispose of his tiles at the old place, two miles south east of Hamilton in the Town of Mequon, in exchange for good cordwork this winter.

There is an excellent opportunity for our farmers to get such of their grounds as may need it, drained next spring by procuring the necessary tiles this winter. Mr. MEYER can also give full instructions as to the laying of those tiles. Hundreds of rods of drains of Mr. M. making have been laid by enterprising farmers on land, that could hardly be cultivated without them and which would have been worthless otherwise. Among those, Messrs. D. WITTENBERG and Chas. GOTTSCHALK of this city have gone extensively into the improving of their farms and who cannot speak too highly of the results.

Sleighs and cutters have taken the place of wagons and buggies.

Remember the dance on Sylvester Eve at SIMON’s Hall in Grafton.

A little son arrived at the house of Mr. G. A. BOERNER last Saturday.

Our streets don’t seem quite so lively as they were before the holidays.

Sleighing is excellent and it makes the liverymen’s business boom.

Cord wood is coming into our market daily and high prices are paid.

The monthly stock fair held at this city last Monday and was slightly attended.

The public school has been closed until after the holidays.

Our dramatical club will soon make preparations for another play, which will take place in about three or four weeks.

The Cedarburg Woolen Mills have closed their mills this week to give their employees a few holidays. They will start up right after New Years.

Mr. McGINNIS and wife and his sister, Maggie of Milwaukee, spent a very ‘Merry Xmas’ with their folks in Cedarburg. The young couple presented their mother with a brocaded spring rocking chair, an elegant and appropriate present, in which she can spend many pleasant hours at her ease and make old age delightful instead of burdensome. This is but an expression in a very thoughtful manner of the esteem in which Mrs. McGINNIS is held by the members of her family.

They took the Monday morning train for Neenah to visit her folds and returned to Milwaukee Tuesday evening, Miss Maggie returned Monday evening. Mrs. McGINNIS is a very sociable and pleasant lady, one who will make home cheerful and life enjoyable. May they lead a happy life and live to a good old age.

SAUKVILLE
(From our correspondent)

Mr. M. J. MOONEY of the Milwaukee police force was visiting his brother-in-law, Mr. Jno. GOUGH last week.

Mr. Joe NEISEN is seriously ill.

Mr. Wm. BELITZ, our local station agt, spent Christmas with his parents and friends in Kiel.

Mr. A. ARNOLD of this place, who was making wooden shoes for a number of years, will start the New Year in the manufacture of leaf tobacco.

Mat. ROOS, our popular cigarmaker, has purchased the STOPPER residence and will convert it into a cigar shop.

It is said that a millinery shop will be opened in Saukville by a young lady from Port Washington who is well known to some of our Saukville people.

The St. Finbar T. and L. Society will give a dance at their hall on Dec. 31. The managers will do their best to accommodate strangers and we trust that those in attendance will kindly remember that it is a temperance dance, and will not supply themselves from a jug behind some fence corner.

The cheese factory was closed last week. This season was the most prosperous the factory ever had.

The pupils of the Saukville public school were treated to a Christmas tree by their teacher.

Of late there has been a good deal of rowdyism in Saukville so that the place has already acquired the reputation of being the roughest in the county. The people of Saukville are naturally incensed over this because whatever disturbances take place in the village are generally made by outsiders. It seems that certain “young men” of neighboring places, fearing the strength of the law near their own homes, come to Saukville to sport their rowdyish propensities, knowing that our people have not enough force to put them down. it is to be hoped that this will not continue much longer, and that the people of Saukville will not be further misjudged on account of the actions of rowdies from the outside.
