Local Notes

Louis Wakeley, member of COM
pany g., 18th Wisconsin Regiment,
was pleasantly surprised Sunday at
his home. near Point Bass, by members
of the Grand Rapids 6. A. r. Post.
The occasion was the celebration OF
Mr.. Wakeley'S fifty-siXth birthday.
The exact date of his birth was July
30, but Mrs. Wakeley postponed the
surprise to Sunday in order to put at
rest any suspicious Mr.. Wakeley
might entertain on that sn0Ject.
Comrades Gets and Pratt had charge
of inviting the guests, and Z. 1.
Thompson was ordered to guard his
father-in-law, Mr.. Wakeley. Inc
party reached there a little before
noon. and when the victim marched
up to his home and found MS many
comrades in battle array he was TOO
overcome with genuine surprise TO
give even the regular military salute.
Of course every one had an excellent
time. The stories told were many
and humorous, but best of all was the
grand dinner which was served by
Mrs, Wakeley. To mention all the
good things would take too much
space, but suffice to say that the
feast was tit for the gods and did not
leave much perceptible vacant space
with the soldiers when finished. Fol-
lowing are the names Of the comrades
who made up the surprise party: w.
II. Gets. NJ. S. Pratt, d. G. Baily, Mr..
and Mrs. Geo. Hammond, j. L. Coty,
Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. w. Baker, w. HI.
Brown, Sam S. Parker, A. Eberhardt,
S. Ward, Il. A. Tenant, d. Kammeren,
T. T. Burr, E. H. Ticknor, John
Grignon, Mr.. and Mrs. NJ. Ell. Lynn
and ChaS. Christensen. Before depart
ing the comrades presented Mr.. Wake
ley with an easy chair to remind him
of his fity-sixth birthday and the
''Surprise."

ing with his rifle for club and waist
deep in the bodies of his fallen COM
rades. Every one was killed and as a
full realization of its awfulneSs bursts
| upon one how impressive becomes the
sentence on the wall: "Thermopylae,
| had it's messenger of defeat,-The
Alamo had none"
The Alamo is one of six historic
missions, situated in and around San
Antonio, and was built in the year
night the front Of it shown reSplen-
dent with hundreds of electric lights.
The windows and door way were out
lined by electric globes and a great
star of the same shown upon the
peaks, while the flag of Texas
floated from its standard.
Yesterday | was and heard Gen.
Lee at the park, listened to the band
Sam Houston on Government Hill
where the 18th q. S. Cavalry are
stationed and some infantry and
artillery companies too. 1t is very
beautiful out there and much bigger
than the barracks in New Orleans.
There are lots of soldiers stationed
go-shows, parks, restaurants and on
the streets. All such fine looking
fellows too. Soldering in barracks
and city like this can't be so very
bad. While out at the fort l climbed
up the winding stairway inside a
great tower and got the finest view l
ever had in my life. l could see all of
San Antonio lying before me and
could see for miles and miles beyond
the city every way. 1t is real enjoy
ment to see a scene like that and
look away over miles and miles of hill
and valley.

Efforts are being made to re-eStab-
lish in this city station for observa-
tions on the weather, such as was SO
efficiently managed by r. G, Worthing
ton during his life time. The plan
would be to receive all weather
predictions by telegraph and transmit
them by telephone to all the burgs
of the county. The principal difficulty
in the way is to tind person to take
charge of the work. 1t is generally
conceded that the station ought to
be in charge of public officer either
at court house, city hall or library, so
that the service can be continued
without interruption.
