NEWS OF THE ARMY,
Maj. Sanger Presents a New Plan for
Operation off Post Schools.

Maj. Sanger Presents New Plan for
Operation of Post Schools.
Maj. Sanger, of the inspector gem
erals department, makes a few rec
concentrations concerning the operation
or the post school. He thinks it should
be in charge of a field officer; that all
ofhcerS and enlisted men should he
members OF the school and perform
such duties as may be prescribed: that
the enlisted men should be divided into
four classes, each class to be divided
into as many sections as may be neces-
sary for thorough instruction, and the
latter to be in charge of an officer.
each section to recite for one hour
daily, and the standing and proficiency
determined by marks given by the in
structor; conduct and neatness to be
CONSIDERED IN determining proficiency,
and that hereafter no private to be an
pointed corporal and no corporal pro-
noted to the grade Of sergeant with
out having received certificate of pro-
ficiency in the lower grade
The school term should continue dur
ing four months of the calendar wear
Maj. Sanger thinks, when outside drills
would be suspended or INTERRUPTED on
account of the weather, and should be
announced in orders by department
commanders.
Maj. Sangers plan is considered rath-
er heaVy-too heavy, in fact, to be CIV
en- much consideration.
On Dec. Is First Sergeant Seranus
Shaddock, of Company c, TWENTY
second infantry, completed thirty wears
of service, twenty-five years of which
he served in Company c. AS a token
OF the high esteem in which he was
held, the members of his company pre-
sented him with magnificent gold
headed cane, with suitable inscrintion
The good wishes Of all his comrades
are with Sergeant Shaddock.

THE present allowance of baggage
for officers travelling on duty is thought
to be ludicrously insufficient for the re-
quirements of gentlemen" says the in
spector general, 'and army officers are
expected to be gentlemen; and there
need be no lack of consideration for
their families. Measuring the allow
ance by the pound is out of date. when
the average railroad cost per pound
each mile in long haul is considered"
He submits that, either by weight or
measure, a second lieutenant be allow
ed two tons; first lieutenant, four tons;
captain, six tons; field officer, eight
tons, and the government need not or
der any more officers to change station
than it can afford to. The general ad-
mits that great Improvement has al
ready been effected, but more seems
needed.

NOT DANGEROUSLY HURT.
Condition of Juncha, Injured in {
Fight with Schmidt.

Condition of Juncha, Injured in a
Fight with Schmidt.
MaXamilian Juncha, the young man
injured in a fight with Jacob Schmidt,
the proprietor of the North Star brew
cry, Saturday evening, rested comfort
ably at the city hospital yesterday, and
it is said that he will recover. He has
four gashes in his head and is suffering
from conclusion of the brain.
The fight took place at Maria avenue
and Plum street, shortly after 6
o'clock. Juncha was formerly employ
ed at the North Star brewery, but was
discharged some months ago. Schmidt
met him yesterday while searching for
lost canine and a dispute arose. The
argument started a fight, in which
Schmidt claims Juncha struck the first
blow. When the encounter was over
Jun cha lay on the sidewalk, semecon-
Scious, and bleeding from the wounds
in his head. Some time later he re-
covered and succeeded in reaching his
home, 800 Mississippi street. The po-
lice learned of his condition and sent
him to the city hospital. The authori-
ties investigated the fight, but no one
seemed to care to take the responsible
ity of arresting Schmidt, though it was
said he admitted striking Juncha, and
no further action was taken in the mat
ter yesterday.
While not denying having a fight
with Juncha, Schmidt claims that he
only used his fists and did not assault
the young man with any kind Of
weapon. The police and the physicians.
however, who examined Juncha's
wounds, assert that it would be almost
impossible to make the cuts with the
bare fist. The physician who dressed
Juncha's wounds at the city hospital
corroborates this statement, but says
that the young man is not dangerously

JULIUS PAPKE, SUPPOSED TO BE
FROM HINCKLEY, TAKES
STRYCHNINE.
is FOUND DEAD IN HIS ROOM.
LEAVES A LETTER ADDRESSED TO
MRS. JULIUS PAPKE ASKING
FORGIVENESS.
FORMER RESIDENT OF ST. PETER,
Address Are Found on His
Person.

Julius Papke, a resident Of Hinckley,
Mimi, killed himself at the Rising Sun
hotel, 373 Rosabel street, yesterday
afternoon by taking an ounce Of strych-
nine. The suicide swallowed the fatal
dose some time during the afternoon,
but was not discovered until o'clock.
when the porter went to call Papke
for supper. There was no response to
the porters summons, and. on opening
the door, he saw the stranger lying
dead on the bed. On a table near the
bed was an empty bottle labeled strych-
nine, and also an empty whisky flask
with some of the poisonous crystals in
the bottom, showing how Papke had
ended his life. Deputy Coroner Ball
viewed the remains and decided an in
quest unnecessary.
The dead man left letter addressed
to Mrs. julius Papke, at Hinckley, IN
which he told of his intended suicide,
and asked forgiveness for the act. From
the tenor Of the letter. it would seem
that Papke had at some time or other
threatened to Kill himself, as he speaks
of keeping his word" and says that
he hopes his wife and children will be
able to get along without him. He ar
rived at the hotel yesterday morning,
reaching the city over the st. Paul &
Duluth road. He told the clerk that
he was from Hinckley, but from sew
eral letters found in his pockets adj
dressed to st. Peter, it is possible that
Papke lived at the latter place, though
this is believed not to be the case, as
the letters are of old dates, and Papke
spoke Of having somewhat recently
moved his family to a new locality.
A document was found showing that
he had taken out first citizenship pa
pers in NicoIlet county. Papke went
up town shortly after eating breakfast,
when, it is believed. he purchased the
whisky and poison. The strychnine
was in an original package such as
farmers purchase for poisoning wolves.
When he came back, the dead man left
orders to be called in time for supper,
and went to his room. He was heard
moving about at 2 o'clock, at about
which time he is believed to have taken
the fatal dose. The suicide was poorly
dressed in black clothes, and wore a
flannel shirt without any necktie Be
sides some papers, knife, razor and
81 cents in money was found in his pos
session
The dead man was apparently about
forty years of age and has a brown
beard and mTlstache. He is about five
feet ten inches tall and weighs in the
neighborhood of 165 pounds The body
was taken in charge by Mccarthy C
Donnelly, at whose undertaking rooms

SKATERS AT COMO.
Fine Weather and Extra Attrac-
tions Drew Them

The fine weather and good ice drew
a crowd of 5000 skaters to Como yester-
day afternoon. John F. and Fanny
Davidson gave an exhibition of fancy
skating, but the open races at one and
two miles did not come off. An effort
was made to bring about a one mile
race for local amateurs, but those of the
cracks who were present did not seem
anxious to contest. John T. Davidson
skated one mile against the record
time made last Sunday and did the dis
lance in PAT, ten seconds less than
the time made a week ago. The timers
were A. Clark, P, Reilly and a. Win
ship. During the coming weeks, John
f. Davidson will endeavor to arrange
for race for next Sunday between
John Nelson. who carried off the
championship honors at Montreal last
winter, John S. Johnson, Of Mime
apolis, and himself. Mr.. Davidson is
willing to match himself for race from
one to five miles and hopes to be able
to secure the other two skaters to meet
him.
