Daily News Batavia, Genesee County, New York State Monday, April 11-1881 The Emigrant Boom. Thirteen car loads of emigrants passed through Batavia yesterday, on the Central road en route for the west. The emigrants were mostly from Germany, although a few were from Norway and Sweden. They filled the Central cars to overflowing, their luggage, consisting of boxes, bags, bundles, kitchen utensils, etc., was mostly strapped upon the backs of the men. One woman had eight small children with her, each of whom lugged a large bundle, except the baby in its mother's arms. She was German, and was going to meet her husband, who had already emigrated to the west. The prospects are that this heavy emigration of foreigners will continue for some time to come. The transportation rates across the ocean are cheaper than before in years, and it would appear that the poor of the old country are taking advantage of this opportunity to emigrate to the land of the really free and truly brave. + A Central Brakeman Hurt. Between 11 and 12 o'clock last night, a brakeman named Van ANBURG, had one of his hands pretty badly smashed while coupling cars east of the depot. He went to the National hotel, and Dr. POTTER was called to dress the wound. Van ANBURG left for home in East Syracuse this morning. + A Bad Boy. Charley SEIFERT, a lad about sixteen years of age, applied to the house of Chris. PASEL, a farmer residing east of the village, about four weeks ago, and stated that he was out of employment and desired to get a place. Mr. PASEL took him and considering him an honest sort of a fellow told him that he could remain. About two weeks ago SEIFERT left his employer, taking with him a pair of boots, a scarf worth $2.50 and several articles of wearing apparel. Mr. PASEL after learning that the boy had left him for good, hunted him up and this morning he was up before Justice JOHNSON. SEIFERT says his father is a painter and lives in Rochester, he is an eccentric acting urchin, and not overstocked with brightness. Justice JOHNSON gave him a sound lecture, and told him if he would go back and stay with Mr. PASEL, he would let him go. Mr. PASEL seemed willing to take the boy back and he was discharged. + East Pembroke Locals. Rumor says there is a marriage approaching. Who knows? Miss Alat CONKLIN of South Batavia is to teach in district No. 9. Oliver UPHILL, Willis GOWING, Louis C. CASE are on the sick list. Mrs. WEAVER of Bushville, will occupy the pulpit at the Baptist church next Sunday. Edwin DURHAM left for South Bend, Indiana, last week. He has business with the plow works of that city. Mrs. Seth KNAPP of Pembroke moved into Mrs. PARDEE's house last week. He is to work her farm this summer. Rev. J. Wesley Le SEUR left for Fort Edward last week. We understand he is to have a vacation of two weeks. The exhibition given by the students of Rural Seminary passed off pleasantly. The pupils all did very well. The boys are thinking of organizing a base ball club here this season. We will see some of the boys of this place trying to move the railroad track with their heads if they don't stop jumping off the train as it leaves this place. We are soon to have a dramatic entertainment, given by the young people of this place. They have selected one or two very fine dramas, and will probably render them nicely, as they are all old hands at that business. The proceeds will go to buy some scenery for the seminary. Citizens! why do you build two new school houses in this place when with half the money you can repair the seminary; make a union school of it, increase the value of your property and educate your children with far less expense than you do now? Quite a serious accident came near happening in this place Saturday. It seems that Charles TORRENCE, Dell. FORWARD and Elmer COOK had some straw to cut. They had a cutting machine, but being too weak to turn it, they thought they would try an experiment. Accordingly they got a horse power, a team and belt and set the thing a running. Well, it had run about two minutes when the boys were surprised to see material enough flying in the air to construct, as they thought, a dozen machines. Elmer was the only one injured. A piece struck him in the arm and another in the breast. Drs. BATES and PARMELEE were called and pronounced the injuries not fatal. Boys, listen to Chan. next time. + Dailey's Furniture Rooms! 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14 State St., Batavia, N.Y., Greeting!
