where the Oglethorpes had fought and
marched.
THE Hussars looked on the Ogle-
thorpes much as did the French on the
soldiers of Napoleon said Gen. Cor
don.
One story was told by Gen. Gordon
of the aftermath Of the battle of Fred
ricksburg. The next day a smooth
looking Yankee accosted a poorly clad
Confederate picket and after looking
him over, the Yankee inquired: Il
don't see how YOU fellows fight so hard
in such a condition. You gave us a
hard rap yesterday"
The Confederate drew himself up
proudly and said: "You just wait un-
til we get entirely without food and
clothes, and then we'll give you -
sure enough"
Another story was about a sergeant
who had been instructed to buy some
whisky for his colonel. The sergeant
failed to return when expected, but
got in the next day in a very much
befuddled condition In explaining his
long absence the sergeant said the
money sent didn't quite fill the jug
with whisky and he bought a. little for

The maneuvers at Manassas were

called on to take part.
THE time will come in the life of
some of you when you will be called

viii have an opportunity to see actual
warfare.
II do not know why or for what
cause, the war will come. but mark my
words, Il will come within the active
lives Of the present members of this
company"
In concluding, Gen. Gordon urged
that in such an event the company
should remember the words OF Boz
zaris:

pires.
Strike for your affairs and your fires.
Strike-for the green graves OF your
God and your native landl"

Car That is to Advertise Northern
Wisconsin Visits Here.
HAS A SPLENDID DISPLAY.
Secretary Fairall of the North Wisconsin
Farmers Association Hopes to Keep
Car Out Until Christmas. Will
Be Big Thing.

The car "Grassland, in charge of
Fl. S. Fairall, of Iron River, was in
the city part of Saturday afternoon
and Sunday, and was viewed
by large Numbers of people at the
tracks near the Omaha depot. The
outside of the car has been very
handsomely decorated, the banners
being gotten up in the most artistic
style, showing that the car advertise
the products of northern Wisconsin.
On the inside are grouped the pro-
ducts gathered from the four lake
counties, showing that the best
quality of grains, vegetables ard
grasses can be grown here. 1t is a
splendid display and when the car is
viewed through the counties in
southern Wisconsin and in Illinois
and Iowa there will be many people
who will open their eyes in wonder.
1t is the plan to keep the car out I'M
til about Christmas time, and during
all the intervening period Mr.. Fair
all expects to as thoroughly as pos
sible advertise northern Wisconsin.
The plan is an excellent one, and
cannot help but be of nestimable
benefit to this northern country.
Even our home people were very
much surprised at the magnificence
of the display which Mr.. Fairall has
arranged.

A Crazy Fire AlarmSys tenn

The fire alarm system Of Wash
burn could be made one Of the
best in the country. but as it is
it means nothing more than big
noise that calls out the fire COM
panies. Sunday morning when
the first alarm was turned it
indicated the second fire district,
which is mostly anywhere in
Washburn except the extreme
west end of the city. Then the
alarm was given for the third
district, and the man owning
property was left to make his
own guess as to the location of
the fire. In Ashland and in
every place except Washburn
where there is an electrical fire
alarm system the whistle blows
the number OF the box, and by
consulting a card a person can
tell just where the alarm is turn
ed in from. For instance: A
box at the corner of Bayfield,
street and Washington avenue
might be mum bered twelve. A
whistle, then pause and two
more whistles would give the
mum Der Of the box Likewise a
box at the corner of Bayfield,
street and eighth avenue might
be mum Der twenty-one. Two
whistles followed shortly by an
other whistle would locate it ex-
actly. tits simple thing to do
and the council should instruct
committee or it's fire chief to ar
range a sensible alarm system,
/ the same as other cities with an
electrical alarm have.

Indians MAY Fish.

1t is held by the circuit court that
the state OF Wisconsin cannot inter
fere with the right of Indians to fish
and hunt within the limits OF the
Bad River reservation, or within
the waters adjacent thereto.
On the 9th of June last, Julius
Rabideaux, Anton Lameaux: John
Neveaux and Mike Default, were
arrested by Game Wardens Cook
and Kleins teiber, for having set nets
in Chequamegon bay, within mile
of the reservation. The first two
named were sent free, out the other
two were held to trial in circuit
court by Judge Mcleod. Their case
came on for trial before Judge
Parish last night, and after pre-
sentation of the law he ordered them
both discharged.
Under this decisisn, the right of
the Indians to fish in the waters ad-
iacent the reservation. cannot be re-
stricted or interferred with by state
laws, and their right to hunt ON the
reservation, is of course unquestion
ed.
The Indians of the reservation
can defy the game wardens so long
as they confine their operations tc
reservation or to the waters adjacent
thereof Ashland Press.

VesuyluS Again Eruptive.

Old Mount Vesuvius, which has
been mac tive for 50 many years is
again throwing lava and ashes. The
people in the vicinity are panic
stricken and are fleeing from their
homes. Already the east side of the
crater has fallen, and it begins to
look as though the old crater was
doomed. It is feared that it may
bury the excavated portions of Pom
pei as they were two thousand years
ago.

KILLED BY THE TRAIN.
Man Named Thompson Killed Near Pratt
Sunday.

Man Named Thompson Killed Near Pratt
Sunday.
What seems to have been a deliber-
ate suicide occurred at Pratt Sunday
at about IL o'clock in the forenoon
Just as the train known as the Cable
turnaround was pulling into that
place. The engineer noticed a man
sitting on the EN- bankment as the
engine passed but just as about
half of the train had gone by, the
man jumped underneath the wheels
and the last four cars passed over
his body.
The train was stopped as soon
as possible and the train crew
went back and found the man dead,
his body having been cut completely
in two. The only means of identifi-
cation was brass check from the
ST. elaine house in Ashland. Inquiry
shows that the check was held by
William j. Thompson, who left the
hotel last Friday afternoon and
when he released his baggage said
that he had lost the check. When
he left the hotel he said that he had
hired out to work at the White River
Lumber Compahy's camps at Delta,
Wis. Little is known Of the man
at Ashland except athat he came to
ESt. Claire house some time the first
part of September. 1t is known
that he has worked around Wash
burn and Ashland in the woods for
some time. He is supposed to- have
relatives in Canada, near Montreal,
as he spoke of it as being his old
home.
