North Dakota Heroes at

battalions now at Manila, in answer to

Manila, Philippine Islands, Aug. ~
Forum, Fargo, N. D.: Thanks. Private
John Buckley of Co. c, Grafton, was
killed and Private F. E. Berg, of Co. A.
Bismarck, is wounded. All is quiet here
No sickness. Treumann.
On Aug. 10, the brigade was in line ol
battle for the attack on the city, The
Astor battery and portion OF the Colo.
rado Vols. were engaged in the very last
firing that took place before cessation ol
hostilities were announced. The North
Dakota boys were on the extreme right
but did not get into the main fight.
The boys behaved we'll and were anx-
ious to cover themselves with glory,
There have been some street brawls
with Aguinaldo's men but our boys have
not been engaged in them, as .dicipline
has been maintained and it is only those
troops where men are allowed to visit
the city without proper restraint and 60
into sections of the city, where disorder
can prevail. Our boys are soldiers who
pride themselves on their good behavior
and in this Colonel Treumann has credit
for his command, because he puts men
on honor and they keep faith.
There has been no sickness and few
complaints. The regiment is we'll en-.
camped, the water is good and thelra.
tions served with promptness and care.
The high state of health in the North
Dakota regiment is largely attributed 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 sur
geons.
The regiment does not expect to get
back prior to the ratification of the final
peace treaty-late in the winter.
The climate is not oppressive except
being hot in the middle of the day-and
trouble from this is avoided by camp
duties being performed early in the
morning. .= n

was to go to Paris to give the peace
commission the benefit Of his expert.

plan had been to send Admiral Dewey

changed upon representations from the
admiral that he could be of greater
service at Manila than in Paris.
Whether or not General Merritt will
return to the Philippines has not yet
been determined; that will depend en-.
tirely upon the state Of affairs in the
islands when the peace commission
concludes its labors. The choice of a
route is left to himself, but it is ex.

Dreyfus was a captain In the French

ed In 1894 Of selling plans Of the min
lister of war to the German govern
ment. Among them were plans for the
mobilization of the French army on
the eastern frontier in the event Of
war He was sentenced to every con-
ceivable degradation that military men
could infiict on a soldier, and to life
Imprisonment on the terrible Devils
Island.

ierymen, accompanied by a lieutenant
Of the Republican Guard, Alfred Drey-
fus was brought out from the small

6ned. Gen. Darras lifted his sword
and uttered the command Garry
armsT which was repeated from COM
pany to company. The troops executed
the movement Hearts almost ceased
10 beat, and all eyes were directed to-
ward the disgraced soldier. Between
the forms of the artillerymen could be
seen clearly the gilt stripes and gilt
tering sword of the captais, distin-
guished ut a distance by the black
sword knot at the hilt of the sword.
Dreyfus walked with firm step. The
group started toward Gen. Darras and
. clamor went up from the crowd. The
group stopped. Again there was ST.
