Gathered from earth and from ocean,

Gather their thanks TO your breast

THE STATE ENCAMPMENT.
Everything Ready for the Visiting
Veterans.

To-day begins the twenty-thlrd an
nual state encampment of the Mime
sofa G. A. R., which will continue for
three days. A committee, with Col. NJ.
Ii. Sessions as chairman, will leave
Minneapolis at 10 o'clock for st. Paul.
where it will meet COMMANDMENTS hier
Alger. The party will return at 2:35,
and repair at once to the West hotel,
where the general will hold an informal
reception. At precisely Z O'Clock in the
evening the line will form at the West,
and. headed by a drum corps, march
down Nicollet avenue to Washington,
where the st. Paul delegation will be
met and given the right OF line. Seats
will be reserved for the st. Paul guests
at Harmonic hall, and the public will
not he allowed to enter until each Grand
Army man has been given a seat. The
gallery will be set apart for spectators.
The campfire to be held at-HarmOnia
hall to-Light will be one of the most en-
iOyable ones that has been held. as the
committee of arrangements has spared
no pains TO make the programme one of
unusual merit.
From the number of veterans already
in the city the management fears that
the hall will not hold the vast thrOng
that will assemble. Thursday and Fri
day evenings the drummer boy of Shiloh
will give entertainments at the same
hall, and it is stated that he has pre-
red special programme for the ben
eft of the veterans.
One of The matters to come before the
encampment will be the election of a
department commander. The comrades
whose names are most prominently adj
vanced for the position are Gen. J. H.
Bishop, of ST. Paul; Edwin Dunn, of
Eyota, and James Compton, or Fergus
Falls. The matter of pensions at the
soldiers home will probably be brought
before the meeting. 1t has been the
policy of the directors of the home to
take a part Of the pension money from
such inmates as draw any, and few Of
the veterans object. The majority. how
ever, think that it is but just. as the
home is crowded, and many of the vet
Grams of the state that have no pensions
need assistance. The move will I'M
doubtedly be voted down.
Prominent q. A. r. men think that
the question raised by the Veterans
league about the soldiers home APP
pointments, although it may be brought
up before the meeting, will not end in
very grave sensations.
