tleman seemed to have taken great
pains with the local talent, and very
well rendered selection was the result.
The choir responded willingly to an
encore with der Sonnenschein, the
first song having been 'sDie Sterne. .
After a short intermission one of the
tableau for which Julius Berndt is
well known was presented. It repre-
sented the old saw-mill established
here half century ago and showed
several men at work, near whom an
Indian was crouched.
Hereupon Miss Josephine Pfaender
and Mrs. DR.. Bell sang a duet emit
tied 'sLike the Lark which elected
an encore. Mrs. Emma Steinhauser
then recited a German poem in the u.s.
ual pleasing style Of the speaker.
Next the mixed choir sang "Gute
Nacht" ("Good Nightly which was
very well received, and as encore
Home Sweet Home was sung.
MEMENTos FOR ORIGINAL FOUR.
Now the four surviving original set
tiers were called to the stage and when
the curtain rose again they were re-
vealed as seated under a spreading
tree beside which a log hut loomed up.
Capt. Albert Steinhauser stepped to
the front of the stage and in glowing
Md mathematical ho ,tc 1uhia
had been previously expressed in re-
gard to the great debt owing by the
younger generation to the old pio
neers.
He stated that it was the ardent
wish of all the juniors that the surviv-
ors who held the places of honor
should have some substantial token
Of the esteem which was being given
them to keep as a memento of the days
exercises, and bade them accept such
a token. AS he said these words a
little girl in white, a grandchild of
Mrs. Henle, stepped forth from behind
the scenes and tripped carefully to-
ward the four guests of honor, bear
ing on a platter four loving cups,
with appropriate inscriptions for each
of the four.
After this Captain Steinhauser pro-
posed three cheers for the old pioneers
which the whole assemblage gave with
hearty good will, and the members of
the mixed choir joined in with the
good old German melody "Sie Leben
Hoch.''
After a little reception in honor of
the four survivors the evening was
given to dancing. A feature was the
dance in which all the old people
joined, dancing the waltz in the old
fashioned way. It was merry party
and did not break up Until the small
hours of the morning.

POLICE USE RLACkSNAkE
Whipping Revived at Sleepy Eye as
Punishment.

Whipping, the one-time popular
method of punishment for criminals
and offenders against the law, has
been revived in Sleepy Eye and with
apparently good effect.
The subject of this harsh measure
was a laborer who, arrested for
drunkenness with several companions
and ordered out of town, refused to
obey for any length Of time and came
back twice, being as many times
elected from the city.
When he came back the last time the
police decided on harsher procedure
and procuring a blacksnake dashed the
fellow with a vigorous arm. When he
left the last time it was to stay.

While catching ride on a wagon
in front of his home in the lower part

old son of Joseph Lessner got his left
leg caught in the spokes of one of the

stopped the bone was broken just
above the knee. A physician was call

spent in caring for the horses, and
feeding, watering, and grooming and
stable cleaning are a part of their
general duties.
Every hour of the day, however, has
its special duties. On shooting days
reveille is sounded at $40 and ten
minutes later there is assembly and
breakfast. Then at 6:10 there is stable
call and the horses are cared for. AT
7:15 thereis the sick call and at 1850
boots and saddles is sounded and
ten minutes later the horses are being
attached to the guns and the battery
is making for the ranges.
Fatigue call is sounded at 1856 and
the men return to camp and eat dinner,
which is served at noon. Then comes
target practice again at 1886 which
lasts until $40, when the stables are
looked after. Shortly after 5 there is
guard mounting. Supper is served at
SIS and at 9 tattoo sounds and at 10
taps, when all lights must be out.
The days when there is no shooting
are spent very nearly the same. with
slight changes in the hours, and there
are various drills through which the
men are put.
MEN FREE TO COME AND GO.
The boys are allowed to go into
town when they are not on duty and
as their behavior has been of the best
there are no restrictions placed on
them, except that they must be in by
taps. OF the men there are 200 in all.
The strength of each battery is 120 re-
cruits, but at this time a large number
of soldiers are leaving on account of
expiration Of time of enlistments and
new men cannot be secured fast
enough to keep up the numbers. The
artillery, however, finds it less diff
cult to secure recruits than the infan-
try, as the pay is higher, being s1S a
month for the men.
The officers are Major S. b. Allen,
commanding, Captain Thomas Ridg-
way, Captain E. F. McGlachlin, Lieu
tenants j. F. Barnes, f. Fl. Smith,
d. G. Mcdonald and DR.. j. S. White,
They are as fine class of men as will
be met anywhere and are not only
capable officers polished gentle
men. Their treatment of visitors at
the camp or on the ranges is marked
with every courtesy.
Major Allen is a soldier who has
seen the world and has been engaged
in actual warfare. He saw active SER
vice in the Philippines in the Spanish
war and later, and he was captain OF
the Tenth battery when it was under
Chaffee and with that general made
the famous march on Pekin. Many of
the men of the Tenth were also there.
The Thirtieth battery has also seen
service in Cuba and in the Philippines.
An effort is being made to get the
battalion to given an exhibition drill
some afternoon which will give the
spectators some idea of the action of a
battery of artillery in battle.
