ACCOMPANIED BY
FESTIVITIES.
5000 PEOPLE AT HENDERSON
Governor Makes Speech in Which
Pioneer, Soldier, Editor and
Statesman is
Eulogized.

5000 guests from surrounding territory
who came to attend the dedication Of

ernor Eberhart presided at the dedi-

Of the biggest celebrations ever held in

Major Browns life story furnishes
one of the most picturesque chapters
in Minnesota's history. Born in Hart
ford, Conn.,, 1906, he ran away from
the printing Office to which he was ap-
prenticed and joined the regular army
before he was fourteen. Leaving Fort
McHenry he was a member of the first
detachment of troops sent here, under
Lieutenant Colonel Henry Leaven-
worth, and helped build Fort St. An
thony, the present Fort Smelling.
After several years he left the army
and became trader with the Indians.
He lived at Grey Cloud Island and
other places. He was the first white
man to raise wheat on Minnesota soil,
and was also the first white man to
visit Lake Minnetonka. The city of
Saltwater was laid out by him, and he
was the pioneer lumberman on the
St. Croix river. Major Brown drove
the first wagon over Minnesota's first
real road, the highway between Fort
Smelling and Prairie du Chen.
Major Brown took a prominent part
in the political affairs of his day.
While a member of the legislature of
Wisconsin, which then embraced Min.
nesota, he advocated the creation of
the territory of Minnesota and he gave
the state it's name with the present
spelling. Later he was member and
also chief Of both houses of the ter
ritorial legislature of Minnesota.
Brown was editor and owner of the
Minnesota Pioneer from 1852 to 1854,
the newspaper which later became the
| Pioneer Press. He was member OF
the Democratic wing of the constitu
tional convention in 1859. Two years
before he founded what is now the
city Of Henderson, and it was through
his efforts that the government estab
lished trading posts and mills there
| During the Indian outbreak in 1862
he went back into military service and
commanded the troops at the battle Of
Birch Coolie. He also took part in the
battle of Wood Lake and was wound
ed there. He died in 1879 in New
York, while on a trip to that state.
The last legislature appropriated
$4,000 for monument to Major
Brown. The granite shaft at the base
has this inscription: Joseph r
Brown, Pioneer, Soldier, Statesman
1805-1879. Founder of Henderson,"

TO EXAMINE STUDENTS.
Step Will Be Proposed at the State,
F. Sanitary Convention.

Minneapolis. 49, The Minnesota state
board of health is preparing to advo-
cate medical inspection for all stu.
dents at the University Of Minnesota.
The first public step will be taken
at the meeting of the Minnesota State
Sanitary conference, when DR.. J. G.
Cross, member Of the faculty of the
school of surgery Of the university, will
read paper advocating such inspec-
ton. DR.. Cross will be supported by
the state board of health and the mem
bers of the faculty of the school Of
surgery
Dean Westbrook of the college said
that while he was not ready to an
noInce plans, it undoubtedly was a
necessary reform.
Dear Westbrook Sees Need.
~ cannot say anything yet until we
have determined on a course of &C.
tion," said Dean Westbrook. IF
medical inspection is necessary in pub
lie schools where few hundreds are
attending school, it is certainly neces-
sary among 1000 Students
If the plans are adopted and medi-
cal inspection becomes a law in the
university the school will be among
the very first in the country to adopt
the system
The meeting of the sanitary confer.
ence will be held Oct. 5, in the Unita.
rian church.
1t is thought that the mild epidemic
| of measles and typhoid fever at the
agricultural college last year had some.
thing to do with the movement.
Dr.. Cross FormuIates Plan.
DR.. Cross said he has not outlined
any definite plan, but is working on a
general line that would, he thought,
be beneficial. The inspection will be
somewhat different from that used in
the public schools owing to the diff.
| erent conditions.
