this, the most beautifully situated city
in the Minnesota valley.
Although the lodge has existed since
1916, the monument movement was not
agitated until about 1883. julius
Berndt, an architect of this city, first
conceived the idea of erecting in honor
of the hero after whom the lodge is
named a monument as we shall see it
unveiled Sept. 25, 1897. The state and
supreme lodges having passed resolu-
tions in favor ofathe movement, a COM
mission was appointed to solicit funds
to carry on the work. Mr.. Berndt pre-
pared plans for the present structure
as soon as the supreme lodge had de-
cided in it's favor. A number of cities
began to fight for it, the most pronli-
nent being ST. Paul, Minneapolis and
Milwaukee. A hot contest arose, and
as none gave in, it was finally decided
to erect it in the city where the idea
had it's birth. In 1887 the cornerstone
was laid amid imposing ceremonies.

The monument is situated on the
bluff southwest of the city, about fif-
teen minutes walk from the center of
the city 1t is in position where it
offers an excellent view of the sur
rounding country and where it may be
seen for miles.
The statue itself is of bronze and

over six tons. The base is of masonry
thirty-two feet high. The rest is most

102 feet high and cost over $40, 600. The

4,ZO0 tons of supplies can be got up

and tools. as well as supplies other
than food. There are more than thir-

AS to shelter, 80 per cent of Daw-

is scarce, and houses cannot be built.
How are 1000 people to withstand the

70 DEGREES BELOW ZERO.
AS to labor, it is true that last winter
was the winter succeeding the great
strike When men were scarce and
wages were SIS day, but if no new
strike is made, what is to keep wages
up this winter? There are but $40
claims on Bonaza, Eldora and Hunker
creeks that will probably be worked
this winter. An average of eight men
to each is, I think, liberal. If but 300
men are employed and there are 5000
or more seeking work, what must be
the result? Wages must go down. I
am told that much grub has gone over
the divide yet from what I know I
would wager my last dollar that not to
exceed 500 tons of supplies over and
above what the carriers will need will
reach the diggings. No men going in

rumors that the Afridis are quarreling
among themselves over the division of
the booty taken from the captured
forts. Only about 500 of them have
been left to guard Khyber pass, the
others having disappeared to seek sup
plies of provisions. 1hls is probably
the reason fer the cessation of hostil-
tiles. The general idea here is that if
further delay occurs in Furnishing the
Afridis, for which purpose at least TO-
coo men are required, there will be
a general uprising on an enormous
scale Between Buner and the Indus
the tribes appear to be disinclined to
join the rebellion.
A strong column of native troops
and the Royal Irish regiment, with
four guns, under command of Col.
Richardson, has started for the relief
Of the Kurum valley forts, and another
force has been sent to the assistance
Of the Shimwari garrison.
1t has developed that the capture of
Fort Lundi Kotal was accomplished
through treachery and that the origi-
nal report that fight lasting two
hours took place within the walls Of
the fort was unfOunded. The $50 Khy-
Der rifles who were stationed there be-
longed to various clans and included
a number of men from the Peshawur
valley After fighting of a desultory
nature some of the ShimwariS drop
ped from the walls and fed to their
homes. The Afridis on the walls soon
began to exchange greetings with
the besiegers of the fort, whereupon
the gates were opened from the inside,
and the enemy poured in. Some Of
the defenders fed, and others remain
ed and fraternized with the besiegers.
The Peshawurs were disarmed, six oe
them were held as prisoners, and the
remainder to the number of thirty
were allowed to go free
1t was this news which led to the
disarnling of a portion of the garrison
at Jamerud. 1t is believed that the
Khyber rifles, garrisoning the forts in
the Khyber pass, had acted in SIM
liar manner.
