ed. All is quite here. No sickness.
TREUMANN.
On Aug. l3 the brigade was in line
of battle for the attack on the city.
The Astor battery and portion OF
the First Colorado Volunteers were
engaged in the very last firing that
took place before cessation of hostili-
ties were announced. The North
Dakota boys were on extreme right
but did not get into the main fight,
The boys behaved we'll and were
anxious to cover themselves with
glory.
There has been some street brawls
with Aguinaldo's men but our boys
have not been engaged in them, as
discipline has been maintained and j,
is only those troops where men are
allowed to visit the city without
proper restraint and go into sections
of the city, where disorder can pre-
vail. Our boys are soldiers who
pride themselves on their good be-
havior and in this Colonel 'rreuma IN
has credit for his command, because
he puts men on honor and they keen
faith.
There has been no sickness and
few complaints. The regiment is we'll
encamped, the water is good and the
rations served with promptness and
care.
The highest state Of health in the
North Dakota regiment is largely at
tributed to the extreme care Of Dr..
N. M. Black, in passing only such
men as were physically superb and
since muster, the hygiene has been
the greatest care Of the surgeons.
The regiment does not expect to
get back prior to the ra tification Of
Of the final peace treaty-later in the
winter.
The climate is not oppressive ex-
cept being hot in the middle Of the
day-and trouble from this is avoid
ed by camp duties being performed
early in the morning.

has promoted the big cold storage company
scheme for 10000. The work of excavat-
ing for the foundation of the building is
already begun. The building will be seven
stories high and its dimensions will be
l4oxls5xlS feet. Its floor space will be 203,

LIQUOR SELLING DRUGGISTS.
Government License ms Prima Facie
Evidence of Lawbreaking.

S. e. Nicholson, State President of the
Good Citizens League, was in the city yes
terday. Mr.. Nicholson says the threats
heard to repeal the Nicholson law at the
scoming session of the Legislature have
aroused considerable temperance interest
over the State, but he has little fear such
an effort would be successful even if at
tempted. He expects more small saloons to
be closed over the State this fall than at
any time in the last three years, for the de-
cision of the Supreme Court unfolding the
validity of the anti-quart shop act will give
the residents of townships an opportunity
to wipe out these institutions. Heretofore,
when county commissioners have refused
saloon licenses to applicants, on the
majority Of remonstrance, the dealer
has thwarted the intent of the
law by running quart shop. The new
law now makes it impossible for a man
to sell liquors in quantities less than five
gallons without obtaining a license from the
commissioners, and If he now pretends to
sell liquor in quantities of five gallons or
more, the government will be after him for
a heavy wholesalers tax, the government
recognizing a wholesaler anyone who
sells it in quantities of five gallons up
wards The city sa,oon keepers, it is under
stood, are in sympathy with the anti-quart
shop bill. The opposition to the law came
largely from the smaller places. but the sa-
loon keepers in these localities are not
members of the Indiana Liquor League to
any extent.
The lion and the lamb are together on an
other proposition, and that is the abolition
of the liquor business as carried on by drug
stores. A new point is to be raised in deal
ing with druggists who sell liquor. Under
the Indiana law druggist cannot sell
liquor except on a prescription of a physi-
clan. Nearly every druggist that handles
liquor has a government license for selling
in quantities. Where druggist sells liquor
nh infn NJ nv ion hn
government does not require him to have a
license, but the druggist who sells liquor
without prescriptions will take no chances
on coming in conflict with Uncle Sam, al
though he is not generally afraid of the
State, The temperance people will now in
sist that a government license held by a
druggist is prima facie evidence that he is
selling liquor contrary to the State law,
which permits no sale except on a prescrip-
ton. If he sold only on prescriptions it
will be argued that he would not have taken
out government license

STATE FAIR ENTRIES.
WIFI Be from Ten to Fifteen Fast
Horses I'm Each Race.

The entries that have so far been received
in the speed department for the state fair
show that the fast classes have the largest
fields of entries, and the indications are
that when the starts are made there will be
from ten to fifteen horses in each race.
Rubenstein, owned by Matt Laird, was one
of the first entries received for the free-for-
all pace, there already being nine entries
registered, and all steppers capable of Civ
ing an interesting race. In the free-for-ail
pace there are seven entries SO far and the
entries have not all been opened and tabu-
lated. In the numerous events are entered
horses from the stables owned and man
aged by NJ E. McHenry, Wilson Bros,
Andy Mcdowell and others equal in promi-
hence. Bumps and Split Silk. both of whom
have been making big regulations this year,
will be among the starters.
Secretary Kennedy announces that the
grand stand will have no individually re-
served seats except the few that the boxes
can accommodate. No passes will be hon.
ored for seats in the stand except those of
the press. The admission to the stand will
be Is cents. This is in addition to the ad-
mission to the grounds. Persons attending
the fair during the day can remain for the
evening performance of the Battle of
Manila but the grand stand will be
cleared after the afternoon races in prepara-
ton for the crowds at night The spectacle
will be produced on Wednesday, Thursday
and Friday evenings.
