Minnesota regiment showed the white.
feather in the battle at Manila. He
says:
aIn the battle, Astor battery gets
first place, BIRD regulars second and
N. d. third, Utah battery fourth, 18th
regulars fifth and 18th Minnesota
sixth. The 18th Minnesota we're or
dered to charge and refused to 20; the
Astor battery then wanted the Da-
kotas brought up and the 18th taken
to the rear, but General Anderson
would not do it. The, 23rd regulars
got In ahead Of the Minnesotas and 50
did we, while they were lying along
the road not knowing what to do.
The Aston battery are fighters from
HI. They started the fight and
stayed right in front until We went
forward into town and they led the
line in. They like the N. D. boys and
say they = all good men, but they
have no time for the 18th Minnesota.

Edward Russell, whose comedy COM
:pany held forth ct the opera house,
house Saturday evening, b an oldl6me
resident Of Ramsey county. Ia s1oo3
he held down . presumption IN Web
ster township, near where the Nofrf-
son Bros. now reside, and the follow
ing summer he proved up on . home
stead IN Bergen township, which was
ct that time : part Of Cavalier county.
It was one OF tho FIRST, IL not the first,
proof made in Cavalier county. Mr..
Russell left here In the tall Of 1854 and
went to Portland, this state, where he
had charge Of . hotel for Ashort time.
Then he drifted into the show business
and has since been over the greater
portion Of the world.
His show Is small, SO Tar % the
number Of performers are concerned,
consisting Of himself, wife and
daughter only, but q very creditable
variety performance is given-really
much better than many shows with
greater pretensions which have ap-
peared here.
While In Devils Lake Mr.. Russell
appeared before Judge Morgan and
took out his final citizen papers, his
first papers having been issued In this
