Atty. M. G. Eberlein went to Chicago on Friday afternoon, for the purpose of meeting his sister, Mrs. Emma Kriewaldt and five children who had just arrived from Hochkich [sic], Australia. Mrs. Kriewaldt went to that far off country twenty-one years ago, and this is her first visit home. She will make her home in Shawano now, as her husband, Rev. Kriewaldt, died about three months ago. They arrived in Shawano Saturday and the reunion of the brothers and sisters was a most pleasant one.

“John Eberlein, who enlisted in the 2d U. S. Calvary from this city 5 years ago, returned home on Monday from Boise City, Idaho, where his regiment has been stationed for the past four years. His term of enlistment expired Jan. 11th. Sunday, Jan. 12th, John started for home, but reached the Sierras just in time for the big snow blockade, and was snowed in eight days. He will make but a lightning visit here, planning to return to Idaho early in the spring, where he says times are better for the workingmen.”
