MILITARY MATTERS.
The Local Company Will Surely Go to
the Front.
Denver Post.

The military company has increased
it's membership to about lis. 1t drill
Saturday night. The list of non-coms
missioned officers was appointed.
There is talk of procuring hall,
probably Union hall, to drill in, and
several citizens have already come
forward to offer to help pay hall rent.
1t is believed that there will be no
trouble in raising enough money for
this purpose.
There is an understanding that the
Mankato company will be the first or
ganization taken outside of the regu-
lar militia of sthe state. 1t is not
thought that the regular militia will
supply the states full quota, and that
several companies will in this case be
made up from companies recently Or
ganized like the Mankato company.
The regimental formation in the vol
unteer service will be twelve COM
panies to the regiment, and the Min
nesota regiments are only ten COM
panies strong. If each regiment Of
volunteers is brought up to it's full
strength, two additional companies
must be attached, and the Mankato
company will 60 in in this way.
Old soldiers say that the present
excitement and preparation reminds
them of the opening days of the civil
war.

MANY APPLICATIONS.
Few Changes Will be Made In the Public
School Teaching Force.

The election of teachers will be the
most important business before the
school board meeting a week from
Wednesday night. In anticipa-
tion of changes, large number Of ap-
plications for positions have been re-
ceived. The most of these will, of
course, be disappointed. 1t is not
likely that many changes will be made
this year. The general work of the
schools has been very satisfactory,
and Supt. Varney states that fewer
changes than usual will be made, so
far as his recommendations will go.
Only one or two teachers have an
nounced their coming designations.
The committee appointed at the
last meeting of the board to investi-
gate the charges upon which Oliver
Duane was suspended has concluded
it's work and will present report at
the next meeting. This report will
not be made public until presented to
the board, but there is reason to be-
lieve that the action of the superin-
tendent will be sustained.

ON THE SUMMIT.
Will Keene Almost Over the Chill
kOOt Pass.

Rev. L. Keene has received let
ter from his brother, Will Keene, who
is on his way to the Klondlke.
Among other things the writer says:
81 wish that might give you an
idea of what it means to move an
outfit from the tide waters to the
Yukon head waters. Probably the best
way for you to get an idea of what it
means is to walk 10 town and buy
50 pound sack of flour and put IL on
YOUR back and walk home with 1t. LII
YOU had about fifteen hills to climb
like the Belgrade hill it would give
YOU a better ,idea. Fred Bechdolt
and myself have in the last week
hacked about 1900 pounds from the
stone house to the scales, distance
of about one and one-fourth miles,
and I'D two hills about like Peltnn
hill. besides several smaller ones.
From the scales, we have packed 7oo
pounds on top OF the summit ais
lance of about two-thirds OF mile
and I'D so steep that steps have been
worn in the side of the mountain.
Last Monday morning, near where
we are camped. two men got into
quarrel over an outfit and one shot
the other. Tuesday, while we were
at our cache at the stone house, we
heard a loud outcrY on the hill above
US and saw a runaway sled coming
down the hill. The hill was crowded
with men and teams of dogs and
horses. The only damage that 1t
did was to break one mans leg.
Accidents, however, seem to be
very few when one considers the dan
gers. The tramway has started to
run theirsbaskets from the scales to
the summit since have been here"
Writing eight days later Mr.. Keene
says: 81 have my tent pitched on the
bank of Lake Linderman and am all
ready this morning to start to ssled
nv outfit from the summit to here. L
paid my duty last Friday. 1t cost me
s35. I am feeling quite we'll but
little lonesome, as Fred is going to
leave me tor a few weeks, and am
among total strangers.

COMING HIS WAY.
Hon. VIM. II. Eustis Much Encouraged
at the Political Outlook.

Hon. VIM. II. Eustis arrived in the
city Wednesday fromMinneapolis. and
stopped at The Saulpaugh. He
give his popular lecture on
"Moors in Spain" at the Baptist
church that evening, and Thursday
evening attended the meeting OF
the knights of Pythias lodge, when
a large class was initiated and
supper served, with toasts, music, etc.
Mr.. Eustis was feeling in fine spirits
over his political prospects. He be-
lieves that things are now rapidly
coming his way and that the nomina-
tion for governor is almost assured.
''There has been a good deal Of talk, I"
said he to a Free Press reporter,
"that could not carry Hennepin
county, and the people throughout
the state are now finding out that I
am all right in my home county. l
have recently had assurances that
make Hennepin county absolutely
safe in my column"
Mr.. Eustis states that the report re-
Gently published that he intended to
hold a conference in this city was
without foundation. He is well sat-
isfied with the outcome of the Second
district conference, as it brought his
latent strength in the district to the
surface. Mr.. Eustis believes that if
Judge Collins friends become con-
WINGED that he cannot succeed in the
convention they will throw their
strength to him (Eustis).
In regard to the Republican state
convention, Mr.. Eustis states that he
is satisfied with the location. He
feels that as far as his strength is
concerned it makes little difference
where the convention is held, as his
friends will be on hand when the roll
is called.
