Tales of Tenth Infantry
Told By the Wayside

Half an hour after the Tenth regi-
ment reached Liberty, after its weari-
some tramp from Richmond, an auto
mobile driven by J. Will Mount sped
swiftly up to the encampment in the
Liberty fair grounds and deposited
private who had disobeyed orders and
remained behind in this city. The
private marched up to his company
commander, saluted and said, Lieu
tenant, report for duty"
How cid you get here so quickly?"
replied the lieutenant.
Why" answered the soldier, Il came
in an automobile!'
THE - you did!' responded the
lieutenant and continued, We'll, you
may report yourself to the guard as
under arrest
Then the lieutenant turned to a
brother officer and said, well,
wouldn't that beat the band! Here /
have hiked all the way from Richmond
and this blooming private comes sail
ing down in an automobile!''
They tell a good story on the chap
lain of the Tenth regiment, the account
of an accident that happened while he
was with the command at it's Alaska
post The chaplain, who is a Roman
Catholic priest, was agreeably sur
prised one day by a visit from the
bishop of that territory. The chaplain
took the bishop through the post and
while going through one particular por-
ton, they came across about 800 empty
beer bottles.
Horrors" said the bishop, where
did all these dead soldiers come
from:''
well, bishop" quickly responded
the chaplain, thanks be, none of them
died without the priest being near!"
They tell another good one on the
chaplain, that is supposed to have hap
pened while he was in Richmond. The
chaplain is one of the best looking
men with the Tenth, and is also an ex-
tremely interesting conversationalist.
OF course, being a Catholic priest, he
is unmarried. He was telling very
entertaining story in his best vein at
camp one afternoon last week, to a
party of visitors from this city, one of
which was a young lady. She listen

stirring tale of an experience in far
away Alaska and, after the slight
pause that followed the conclusion of
his story, said to him, Father Ferry.

Obituary.

Miss Helen Kindlund died at the
home of her parents in this city on
Thursday evening, March S. The
funeral was held on Sunday after
noon from the Swedish Lutheran
church, and was very largely attend
ed. Rev. Swan conducted the service
and preached both in Swedish and
English. The text for the sermon in
Swedish was taken from Luke 2:48.
The text for the English was taken
from l John 3:2. Interment was
made in the Worthington cemetery.
| Helen Elizabeth Kindlund was
born April 8, 1879, on a farm in Bige-
low township, known as the home
stead of Nels N. Langseth, where
she lived until the fall of 1881, when
they moved to Worthington and has
lived here continually since. She
received her education in The w Wofth-
ington High School, and from child
hood up to her death she was a mem
| Der of the Swedish Lutheran church,
in which she was confirmed 10 the
spring of 1891. She always worked
and stayed at home with very few
exceptions.
In 1904 she went into partnership
with Miss Annie johnson in the mil
linery business. In 1907 they dis
solved partnership, Miss Kindlund
continuing the business until her
death.
She is deeply mourned by her par
ents, two sisters, Emma and Martha,
a grandmother living in Sweden, and
by many other relatives and scores of
friends among the young people,.
Miss Kindlund suffered from diabe-
tbs and consulted DR.. Manson some
time in May, 1907 taking his advice
Of refraining from business worry.
In the fall she went to St. Paul and
stayed with her aunt and was under
DR.. Solberg's care. Last Tuesday
she walked up to DR.. Mansions Office
and the next morning when the doc
tor called he ordered her to led. She
grew worse rapidly so that in the af-
terncon she lost speech and conscious
ness, and it could plainly be noticed
that she was getting weak, with no
hope for anything better. Thursday
evening at 8 o'clock she was released
from pain and died in the faith of her
Saviour, at the age of % years. 10

very thorough invest cation into the
condition of Co. F, of inc End Regi-
ment. The company was put though

arms and executed every movement
with precision. The discipline of the
company was found to be good, and
the uniforms.accouterments and other
state property weIl cared for. In fact
the affairs of the company were in ex-
cellent shape, and the colonel COM
plimented the boys highly on the in
terest manifest in the organization.
Captain-elect Smith had IS officers
and men present or accounted for.
This is one man short of a full
company aud is accounted for by the
fact that the commission for the new

ed officers and privates was held.
Among the non-coms. Corp. Malm-
quist of Rushmore captured the
