says in connection:
"A use of the bicycle which II as pres

a trolley. Where heavy or bulky lug

there is no limit to the use which may
be made OF bicycle as carrier.

he will, on Tuesday next. providence

birthday. With one or two brief inter

and energies since 1853, the date of his
arrival, in the upbuilding of the CITY. and

has seen emerge from a primeval will

interest In passing and up date events
is as keen and active as quarter of a

marked degree in a conversation between
the veteran Democratic war horse and
statesman and the writer, which occurred
one day last week During the con

preached when Judge Flandrau referred
to his coming birthday, saying that he

A few years ago he was appointed by
the legislature as one of the commits

sofa in the Civil and Indian wars. Two
valuable volumes were produced and
they now form an indispensable part of
every important library In this work
Judge Flandrau confined himself to the
history of the Indian wars, of which he
gives a graphic and accurate account.
1t may be said that, during his long
and busy life, filed with the peril and
adventures of savage warfare, Judge
Flandrau found time to cultivate the
peaceful arts, and to develop literary
habits and tastes Of no mean order.
This is attested by his most recent i'm.
portant public act as an historian the
publication, in 1900, of an interesting and
valuable volume entitled the History
of Minnesota" supplemented by a series
OF tales Of the frontier which, taken
together, form the most comprehensive
and satisfactory history of the state
ever given to the public.
In referring to his political career as
above given, the fact was omitted that
Judge Flandrau was made judge advo-
cate Of Minnesota by Gen. Sibley, the
first governor of the state, and that he
served during his administration, In
1859
Among the numerous thrilling n ira

band in March, 1857, while he was United
States Indian agent.
The massacre, which resulted in the
death Of forty-two, and the captivity Of
four women, was brought about by the
merest accident. During the month
named one of the Indian band, while
hunting near the Rock river, was bitten
by dog belonging to one of the set
tiers. The Indian killed the dog, when
the owner of the animal assaulted him
and beat him severely. This so ged
the Indians that they marched to the
settlement at Spirit lake and commenced
to massacre the settlers, killing all Of
the men, together with some women
four of the latter being carried into cap
tivity Their names were Mrs. Noble
Mrs Marble, Mrs. Thatcher and Miss
Gardner
The massacre was first discovered by
Morris Markham, one of the settlers
who was absent at the time, and who
returned only to find all of the settlers
dead or missing. He at once went to
Springfield and reported what had taken
place.
Judge Flandrau received the news of
the massacre from two young men who
had came on foot through the deep snow,
and he at once made a reauisition on
Col. Alexander, commanding at Fort
Ridgely, for troops. Capt. Barnard e.
Bee, of the Tenth United States infantry,
end his company were detailed to go in
pursuit of the Indians, and, after a most
arduous march, the camp fires of the In
dams were discovered, but as they We're
several days old the pursuit was finally
abandoned,
Jnthe meantime Judge Flandrau devised
plans for the rescue of the women, and
while thinking the matter over an event
occurred that opened the way to a solu-
ton A party of his Indians who had
been hunting on the Rig Sioux learned
that Ink-pa-du-ta was encamped not far
distant, and that he had some white
women prisoners. Two brothers of the
peaceful tribe visited the camp and sue
ceeded in purchasing Mrs. Marble, and
in bringing her to the Yellow Medicine
agency, whence she was brought to Judge
FlandIau, who learned that two of the
ether captives were still alive.
A large force of Indians was organized
to rescue the remaining women, and
they were provided with horses, wagons
and all sorts of trinkets which were to
be given in exchange for the captiyes
1t was. the intention of Judge Flandrau
after the women had been rescued. to
move on the enemy with United States
troops and utterly annihilate them.
Plans to this effect We're fully matured,
but this part of the programme was
frustrated by an order which command
ed the garrison to embark for Utah to
join Gen. Albert Sydney JolInson's expe-
dition against the Mormons.
However, Judge F'landrau's Indians
reached the hostile camp, where they
found that Mrs Thatcher and Mrs
Noble had been killed. Miss Gardner
was rescued and brought to st. Paul and
delivered by Judge Flandrau to Gov.
Medary on June %, 1851 She was after
wards married and became widow,
and resides in the house from which she

her were paid $4Oo each for their serv-
ices. To the brothers who brought in

THE FIRST OF JUNE.

Now have come the shining days
When field and wood are ROBBED anew
And Ger the world a silver haze
Blends the emerald with the blue.
Now doth summer clothe the land
In garments free from spot or stain
The lustrous leaves, the hills untanned
The vivid meads, the glaucOus grain.
The day looks new, a coin unWorn
Freshly stamped in heavenly mint;
The sky keeps on its look Of morn;
OF age and death there is no hint
How soft the landscape near and far!
A shining veil the trees infold:
The day remembers moon and star;
A silver lining hath it's gold.
Again I see the clover bloom,
And wade in grasses lush and sweet;
Again has vanished all my gloom
With daisies smiling at my feet.
Again from out the garden hives
The exodus Of frenZied bees;
The humming cyclone onward drives,
Or finds repose amid the trees.
At dawn the river seems a shade
"A liquid shadow deep as space.
But when the sun the mist has laid,
A diamond shower smites its face.
The seasons tide now nears It's height,
And gives to earth an aspect new;
Every shoal is hid from sight,
With current fresh as morning dew.

Evening journal., 1901-11-27

will make the review from city pulpits
and pews tomorrow.
Newspaper men of the nation are
grateful for a successful business year.
They have seen the introduction of
mechanical facilities into the profess
sion which admit of the making OF a
great journal in a lew hours. They
have seen that journal advance to a
position OF greater influence in shap-
ing the policy OF the nation and tho
affairs of the community. It's stock
in trade-the news of the worlds
contributed by writers who are better
informed on the subjects they discuss,
is better written and more attractive
ly arranged than it was five years ago.
The press also has advanced along
educational lines. This is as IL should
be. for although the primary purpose
of a newspaper is to publish the news,
the paper owes it to its
constituency to record the hap
penings of the world inteiligently and
truthfully. There is tendency
among a certain class to look upon
the press as being Of a grade of litera-
.ture somewhat below the average. This
conclusion we believe to be unwar-
ranted. Careful study OF the question
cannot prove other than that the
makers of the newspaper possess
more intelligence than the majority of
the people among whom the paper
circulates.
However. the influence of the press
for educational, moral and political
advancement may be expected to in
crease. 1t may be depended upon to
continue attacks against wrong, to
work reforms and give encouragement
to all those agencies which tend to
the general good of the nation in
which it lives. and in the community
where it obtains financial support.
