Confederate Teterans Of the Valley.

AT meeting OF the zen. turner Ashoy
Camp No. -, of Winchester Virginia.
acting under a charter from the Grand
Camp of Virginia, the following address was
ordered to be printed and sent out with ea' h
application for membership:
COMRADES AND VETERANS:
OBJECT-Our object is to perpetuate the
memories of our fallen comrades, and to
minister, as far as practicable, to the wants
of those who were permanently disabled in
the service, to preserve and maintain that
sentiment of fraternity born of TIE hardships
and dangers shared on the march, the bly,
ouac and the battlefield.
It is proposed not to prolong the animosi-
ties engendered by the war, but to extend to
our late adversaries, on every fitting occa-
sion. courteses which are always proper be-
tween soldiers, and which, in our case, a
common citizenship demands at our hands
We propose to avoid anything which par
takes of partizanship in religion and poll
tics, but at the same time we will lend our
aid to the maintenance of law and the pres
ervation of order.
OBJECT % Conscious of how rapidly our
R,ll. Call is growing les, il is both our priv
ilege and duty to Use at once all means in
our power to collect and preserve facts for
the use of the historian and writer by OBJ
tanning them from living witnesses and ac-
tors, and to this end our Camp is pledged.
APPEAL.-With the above brief state
ment of our aims-leaving minor details to
the decision of future and more perfect or
Canization-we now most earnestly invite
aud urge yop to join US in our good work.
Believing that this appeal to "rhe Veterans"
will not be in vain we are,
Fraterually yours,
OSCAR BARE,
T. c. WILLIAMS,

MINNEAPOLIS,
COMPLETELY DESTROYED.

The Plant OF the Acme Cooper
ative Barrel Company Burned to
the Ground.
The Acme Cooperative Barrel COM
pany's plant, corner Eighteenth avenue
north and Howard street, was COM
pletely destroyed by fire yesterday fore
noon, entailing loss of $4,000, which
was only partly covered by insurance.
The fire started in the roof OF the main
building about 10 O'Clock. from sparks
from one of the smokeStacks. Within
a short space of time the dry kiln and
engine room were also ablaZe. and
although a second alarm was sent
in and additional apparatus sum-
moned, the flames were beyond
control, the inflammable character
of the contents of the buildings
rendering their work of destruction
easy. The Acme company was organ
lied six years ago, and for couple of
years has been making money. The
capital stock is $4,000, held by forty
three stockholders, all of them coopers.
The shop employed seventy hands and
turned out $500 barrels a day. o. E.
Du Bots is president of the company;
L. w. Teney is secretary, and George
A. Thompson IS treasurer. Tbe stock
holders will hold meeting as soon as
the loss is adjusted and decide whether
Or not to rebuild. Mr.. Du Bots thinks
the shop will be rebuilt, but, of course,
cannot speak officially at this time. The
company owns the ground upon which
the old shop stood.
The summer cottage of A. II. Edsten,
located at Solberg's Point. Lake Mime
tonka, was completely destroyed by fire
fire cannot be ascertained. The loss Is
estimated at $1,000.

ARRESTED AT THE JAIL.
Mrs. William Young Goes to See
Her Husband and Is Promptly
Locked Up.

There was an exciting scene at the
Jail yesterday afternoon, soon after l
o'clock, when Mrs. William Young, who
had called to see her husband, now
awaiting trial on charge of burglary,
was arrested on an indictment charging
her with receiving stolen goods.
Some three weeks ago William Young
and James Riley were arrested on sus
picion of having been engaged in Sc
ries of burglarieS out in the ariStocratic
section of the city. Before any charges
was made against them the detectives
made search for the place where the
goods had been planted" and finally
found it in Chicago, and nearly all the
missing articles were recovered. The
two men were indicted by the last grand
jury, and when they were removed from
the central station to the county jail
Mrs. Young came around to say good
bye to her husband. 1t was not gener-
ally known at that time that she had
also been indicted, and when deputy
sheriff went to look for her he found
that she had departed.
Yesterday she called at the Jail to see
Young, but, before admitting her, the
deputy sheriff, to make sure that she
was the woman his warrant ordered
him to arrest, called in Detective James
Doyle to identify her. When Mrs.
Young was inside the jail the deputy
| put her under arrest, much to her aston
| ishment. She protested emphatically
| that she had done nothing to bring her
under the dlspleasure Of the law, but
when she was told to go into the wor1-
EMS department of the Jail her courage
| left her and she began to sob and weep

make the reputation of whole class of
athletes. Among them was the feat Of
jumping over the head of his wife, and
Mrs. Robinson is a tall woman. The
programme was concluded with the sec
ond act of 1.-THE Old. Old Story" 1t
was fitting close of the best general
programme ever seen in the Northwest.
Through an unavoidable accident,
and through no fault of his own, George
Backus had to be omitted from the pro-
gramme. The audience missed treat
in not hearing his recitation of Mrs.
Partlngton'S Sayings"
There was not hitch from the start,
all of which was due to the capable
stage direction of E. P. Hilton, eff
ficiently assisted by Fred A. Pride and
Theo l.. Hays. The delegation from
the st. Paul Press club came up in a
drag. They lost wheel on Hennepin
avenue, but lost none of the show. The
souvenir programmes that had been
prepared were neat, pretty and unique.
Many were the comments on the idea.
1t was great entertainment. The
artists covered themselves with glory !;
the audience showered them with ap-
plause; the press club tried to cover
some of them with flowers. Lastly, the
club is submerged in wave of graft
tude.
The appearance of the house was
much improved by the decorations, the
work of Capt. J. S. Dynes. His artistic
draping of bunting gave the theater a
holiday aspect

THEY ARE MISSING.
The Supposed Elopement ola Mar
ried Man From the East Side.

Edward p. Goodland. a painter en-
ployed by Wagner & Nelson, has disap-
peared from the city and so has the
wife of John t. Allison, coincidence
which leads Mr.. Allison to suspect an
elopement. Mrs. Allison was last
seen in the city on Wednesday
last, at which time she drew from
the bank her husbands savings,
amounting to several hundred dollars.
Mrs. Allison met her husband at
dinner on Wednesday and appeared as
pleasant as usual, but at supper time,
when he came home, both she and their
three-year-old child were gone. Good
land has also been gone since Wednes-
day, and. although there is no definite
evidence TO show that they went to-
gether, Mr.. Allison is convinced that
Snch is the case. Allison is all employe
of the Century Piano company. and
Goodland became acquainted with his
wife last spring while doing some work
for him. Mrs. Allison is thirty years of
age. and good-looking. Goodland is
about the same age.
