SALTWATER.
Company X, of the Thirtee enth Reg
iment, Fully ReOrganized.


The impression that Saltwater will
lose its place in the First regiment, N.
G. S. M, which seems to have been
abroad for several days, must be dis
PEELED, for indications yesterday after
noon were that the company would not
only be reorganiZed, but would be reor-
ganized with the full strength of seventy
six men. e. M. Conrad, who was popular
with the boys OF Company X, Thirteenth
Minnesota volunteers, in the Philippine
campaign. consented to take the captain
cy of the reorganized company, provided
sixty members could be secured, but mas
much as interest seemed to lag and the
time approached for the return of the
muster roll to the adjutant generals de-
partment without any definite action be-
ing taken up on the part of members of
the company in this city, Mr.. Conrad said
that he would have nothing more to do
with the company. On Friday, however,
he was prevailed upon to reconsider his
determination to retire, and the result is
that he will accept the captaincy, and
spent all of yesterday afternoon in the
city soliciting members. Up to last even
ing seventy applications had been signed
and within a few days the company will
be reorganiZed with the full quota of
seventy-slX men, e. M Conrad's resig-
nation as first lieutenant having been ac-
cepted, c. Treat Speer has been given
temporary charge of military matters
connected with the organization of the
company, but as soon as the boys hold a
meeting Mr. Conrad will be elected cap
tain. A meeting will probably be held
some time this week.
Mrs. c. S. Wilson, the mother of Judge
f. T. Wilson, of the probate court, has
been i'll for several days, and her condi-
ton yesterday was considered serious.
She is seventy-three years of age.

way company, Fayette Marsh, Charles Z.

Christine Holcomb and Robert -Welch
have filed objections in the district court
to the entry Of Judgment under the pro-
ceedings for the sale of forfeited lands
in May next. In most cases 1t is claimed
that the claims are outlawed by reason
of the terms of the, statute Of limitations,
but the Omaha Railroad company claims
that 1t is not liable to real estate tax,
inasmuch as tax on gross earnings is
paid.
