.Encampment week broke up at Mic:
o1let park yesterday afternoon with a
!reunion and campfire partici pated in by
the First Minnesota biffantry and the
lBecond Toledo, Ohio, batteries. Each
side salved itself with the ointment
tof victory and tasted Of the CALLING
Hregs Of defeat. The Minnesotans cap
sof so, while the second skirmish went
Ito the sharpshooters Of the Maumee
brigade IA.
In the first battle Comrades Canmitz
and Gehring were on the firing line,
with Corporal Yaeger and Adjutant Alb
bot back Of the enemy. Comrade Geh-
BRING had the Ohio regiment foraging
all over the lot for hits and only get
fing four, while the Minnesota biffantry
fhe Canmitz camp.
The Toledo band Of rough riders
never got in hailing distance of the
plate all Of the way. The afternoon was
very hot and Gehring had thawed out
and was working as smoothly as a cab
driver sticking up the populace for ex-
cess fare during the rush hours. He

Olarke on his list, and handed out hot
ones with the slow ones until the Grill

ANXIETY than the sun. They had no
more chance with the artilleryman than

hoarse thru the nine innings.

ION Davis single, another sacrifice by
.fSullivan, a, wild pitch by the swelter-
ing Canmitz and a vigorous smash into
the left field verdure by the Greminger
boy. Still another came in the sew

when Greminger shot the snuff into
