The management Of the Metropolitan onera
house in Minneapolis and the Neill Stock
company have extended, through Lieut.. Gel.
Leonhauser, an invitation to all of the Of
fcers and men at Camp Ramsey. to attend
the performance of tie Neill Stock company
at the Metropolitan during the week of Aug.

the regular routine of camp lie. Lisut Col.
Leonhauser has the matter under consi6era-

favor of 1t. there is little doubt but the boys
will be privileged to partake Of the hospi-
tally rendered them.
