MASS OF DOODLE EVIDENCE.

Milwaukee Grand Jury, Just Drawn,
Will Have Plenty to Do.
Milwaukee, Dec. 3.-Much interest Is
shown in the drawing of the new
grand jury yesterday, as the district
attorney has an immense mass OF
Doodle evidence to present, both in
city and county affairs. This will be
the first grand jury for two years.
The last one returned no indictments
because of q defect In the law. In
dictments will be returned probably
against the aldermen already arrested.
There are stacks of evidence piled up
in the office of the district attorney
and 1t will affect the management of
all the county institutions and pretty
much all Of the supervisors.

Helena, Mont, Dec. 3-The Montana
legislature convened In extraordinary
session yesterday for the purpose OF
considering bills which will give the
supreme court authority to review
facts In Of equity and a change
Of judgeship measure. In other words,
these two latter measures are sought
by the Amalgamated Copper company,

Justice in Silver Bow county courts. 1t
was the adverse decision of District

the many issues between Heinze and
the Amalgamated which the latter de-

Dickinson to Get Land Office.

The proposed division of the Bis
marck land district into two districts
and the establishment of another land
Office, probably at Dickinson, Is caus-
ing much interest in that section. not
so much because of the division as re-
garding the probable appointees to the
registership and receivership. 1t is
generally taken for granted that the
new Office would be at Dickinson If the
division is made, and gossip connects
the name of A. C. McGillivray with one
of the positions.
Land Office positions pay a maxi.
mum salary of $4,000 a year, based on
the fees of the Office, and in the pro-
posed district the ees would be maxi
mum, since it would do a large share
of the lind business in the western
part of the state. McGillivray recent
ly stepped out of the land Office at
Bismarck without asking for q reap
pointment.
In the "peace conference" at Bis
marck last winter, engineered by Alex
ander Mckenzie, to bring the warning
slope politicians together, the register
ship of the Bismarck office was slated
for M. H. Jewell. who recently re-
ceived the appointment. 1t was stated
at that time that McGillivray did not
ask for a reappointment, and it was
generally understood that he was
slated for something e. a. g. A land
office position at Dickinson would un-
dorbtedly please him more than q re-
appointment at Bismarck, as his home
is in the Stark county town.
Other gossip in the same connection
connects the name Of L. D. McGahan
of Bismarck with one of the two posi-
lions in case the new district is Gre
ated. McGahan was an '~insurgent"
in the Burleigs county campaign last
year and was elected to the legisla-
ture. He was a former resident Of
Ramsey county, and Senator Hans
brough, it is said. feels especially
friendly. to him for good work done in
the Hansbrough-Cowan fight for the
x.amsey county delegation last xear.

BATTLE OF DRY TORTUGAS
Major Nathan Lapowsiu Tells OF

at That Point.

Everybody in camp is laugh

XII of the Fourth Texas, lover

newspapers, in the battle of Dry
Tortugas
Laugh as they want to, it's no
joke. 1t was not battle with

engagement with mosquitoes, and
we were whipped at every turn of
the road, 50 to speak.
Mine was company G., of the
Third Texas volunteer infantry.
After a brief cessation at Fort
Clark the regiment was strung
along the border and coast be-
tween Ell Paso and Kew West.
Myself and command landed in
Dry Tortugas, Florida, 50 called
owing to the gigantic breed Of
gallinippers infesting the south
ern peninsula. When we were
favored with u sea breeze there
was II partial cessation of HOSTILE
ties, but so sure as the breeze
came from land mosquitoes
swarmed down by the tens of
thousands from the pine trees,
and you couldn't sleep, nor do
anything. but walk in the hot
sands and fight the best possible
without weapons.

evidently never been paid. When
the average gullinlpper found IL
soldier with pair of heavy duck
leggings, he was easy business, for
the sharp dagger-like spike went
through to the flesh like butcher
knife through hot butter.
After we had fought for about
twenty days and nights without
any signs of the enemy weaken
ing, the company lined up for
final effort. We never tagged
out-no sleep, no appetite, and II
vocabulary that had been exhaust.

fight lasted until about daylight,
when a sea breeze came up from
the southeast and drove the mos
quitoes back to the pines. That
day we started on our return trip
to Texas, and 1t was the sweetest
trip we ever took.
ITO this good day the engage
ment is known in Washington
