JOSEPH EASTMAN GETS XMAS PACKAGE MOTHER PREPARED BEFORE DEATH MONTHS AGO JOSEPH EASTMAN, THIS CITY, RECEIVES GIFT WHICH MOTHER, DEAD SEVERAL MONTHS ADDRESSED FOR MAILING Addressed in the handwriting of his mother, Mrs. Wetzel, who died several months ago, a Christmas package was received by Joseph Eastman, manager of the Manitowoc Gas company, Saturday and the same mail carried similarly addressed packages to Mrs. Eastman and to Mrs. J.F. Herzog, of this city, the latter a friend of the family. The packages contained gifts which Mrs. Wetzel had prepared before her death and which, when she knew that her end was near, she addressed with her own hand and requested that they be mailed at Christmas time. Mrs. Wetzel asked that the packages be held until the holiday season and then be forwarded to the persons for whom intended and her request was complied with. Mrs. Wetzel had been at work on Christmas gifts for her son and his wife and for friends at the time she was stricken by her fatal illness and had completed some of the gifts, including those for Mr. and Mrs. Eastman and Mrs. Herzog, whom she met on a visit here. The gifts will be highly prized by the recipients as they represent the last work in life of the donor and evidenced her thoughtfulness even in the trying hours of an illness which she knew must terminate in death.

J.S. EGAN LOCAL MAN HOBNOBS WITH "BILL" TAFT ON ROAD Mark on Suit Cases Gives J.S. Egan Clue To Ex-President MEET IN STATION AT APPLETON JCT During twenty-five years or more of traveling, J.S. Egan of this city says he has witnessed many amusing incidents, but one that will remain with him some time he saw Friday while at Appleton Junction. Mr. Egan was waiting in the station there for a train to this city and was the lone occupant of the waiting room. Presently the train from Fond du Lac rolled in and in a moment a good natured person, large of stature, walked into the room. He looked like Taft, was the passing thought of Mr. Egan and then thought no more of the new arrival, for a former president of the United States would not be waiting alone in an "upstate" station waiting room. The fat man, lugging two mammoth suitcases and carry a portfolio wobbled toward a seat near where Mr. Egan was sitting and then the latter observed the initials "W.H.T." on the suitcases. "How do you do Mr. Taft," chanced Mr. Egan. "Is it possible that you are traveling alone? Where is your special train and retinue of attendants?" The former resident responded with a cordial greeting and said all the attendants he had were then visible, and as for a special train-there was none. He was absolutely alone, on his way to Wausau where he was to speak. He had come from Fond du Lac. "How do you like traveling like us ordinary 'peddlers?" said Egan, and Taft said it was much more pleasant than being bothered with attaches.

T.C. EGGERT HAS MONEY TO BURN T.C. Eggert, Formerly of Tisch Mills, Has a Surplus of Wealth RETURNED FROM KLONDYKE. Was in the City, To-day Visiting Friends-Left Here Fifteen Years Ago and Settled in Washington. A man who has all the money he desires is an oddity in these days, when all humanity is engaged in a fierce struggle for an existence and an effort to obtain the long green. But such is the case with T.C. Eggert, who was in the city to-day. He is simply rolling in wealth and has money to burn. Mr. Eggert was born and raised at Tisch Mills, in this county, and when but a lad, becoming dissatisfied with his surroundings and with a thirst for adventure he decided to seek his fortune in the west. He left Tisch Mills about fiftenn years ago and located in Washington, then a territory. Success attended his efforts in the new home and in the course of a few years he found himself in possession of a paying business venture. He made money and, being of an econimical turn of mind, "salted" a fair supply, for use in the proverbial rainy day. When the Klondyke gold craze struck Washington he disposed of his business interests and joined a prospecting party going to the new country. The hardships of the trip were many, but he feels amply repaid as he was one of the few who returned from the gold region possessed of a fortune. Upon his arrival in Washington a desire to visit the home of his childhood caused him to make a trip east. He was in the city to-day and was a guest at the home of M.P. Staudt on South Main street. It is impossible to estimate Mr. Eggert's "pile" but he has all the coin he desires and will have no need to worry concerning the future. Feb. 1, 1899, Manitowoc Daily Herald

CHARLES ESSLINGER Congratulations to Charles Esslinger who will be celebrating his 81st birthday next Sun. Oct. 29, 1891, Der Nord Westen ********* Mr. Charles Esslinger, one of the oldest residents of our city and probably one of the first German settlers here, celebrated his 87th birthday Sunday. He is now ailing, but we saw him taking a walk recently. 05 Nov. 1896, Der Nord Westen ********* Mr. Charles Esslinger celebrated his 89th birthday to-day and numerous friends called to congratulate him. It is a ripe old age, when one stops to consider. He has lived nearly a score of years beyond the three score and ten which usually marks the limit of human life. What wondrous changes the world has seen since Mr. Esslinger was a babe. That was the time when the Little Corsican was the center of the world's stage, that was the time when the new American republic was just beginning its marvellous (sic) career of progress. Just stop to consider for a moment what has been done since that day in the material advancement of civilization. The steam engine, railways, telegraph, telephones, phonographs, electric lights and power, a thousand and one of the utilities which we now have at our elbow were then undreamed of, and the man who would have foretold their coming would have been branded as a lunatic. It must be a wonderful study for a man who has lived through all this progress to look over the past on his 89th birthday. Nov. 1, 1898, Manitowoc Daily Herald ******** Charles Esslinger will celebrate his 90th birthday next week. He came to Manitowoc when it was just being established and has been here for 50 years.
