Death Of Col. PeteIer.

Col Francis Peteler, one of Minne-
apolis's oldest citizens and veteran of
three wars, died at his home April 18.
1t is believed that his death was due to
the excitement attending the Reunion
of his old comrades of the 1st company
of. Minnesota Sharpshooters, held at his
residence April 8. There were 13 of
these present beside himself, and after
a dinner the evening was spent in story
telling and "reminiscences. He had pre-
viously suffered a severe fall, which at
the age of 80 affected him greatly. Col.
Peteler was born in Bavaria. but came
to the United States when a boy, and
enlisted in the 8th y. S. for the Mexi-
can War. He rose to the rank of a
Corporal, and after being mustered out
returned to Minneapolis and entered
business. When the call came for VOL
unteers he organized a company of
sharpshooters, of which he was elected
Captain. The company was made A of
the I'd U. s. Sharpshooters. 1t was
armed with Sharpe's improved rifles.
and did fine work in the second Manas-
sas campaign and in all of the battles
of the Army of the Potomac subse-
quently. Capt. Peteier rose to be Lieu
tenant-Colonel, and at the time Of the
Indian outbreak in Minnesota ne was
sent to command Fort Abercrombie,
Dakota Territory, where he helped to
quell the Indian uprising. After this he
returned to his regiment.
Col. Peteler is survived by two sons
and one daughter

three years in the regiment commanded

A NATIONAL MONUMENT.
n Novel Proposition for a Memorial TO
the Blue and Gray.

Comrade John McTammany. New
York City, was the inventor of the me-
chanical piano player. which has now
reached such fine perfection. After his
discharge from the army Comrade Nc
Tammany became a music teacher at
Akron, o., and there, in 1876. made the
first practicable piano player. Comrade
McTammany is now advocating a novel
memorial to the veterans of the blue
and gray who fought the battle thru to
the end. He proposes to have held in
Washington in the near future a Re
union of the Union and Confederate
veterans or at least a delegate conTsr-
ton. Before this conyen:i..n he will
have brought his deposition to locate
memorial s,emple at Washington. d.
e. TIE cost of which should be betrayed
py the several Statesl the General Gov
ernment, the city of Washington and by
private subscription. He says with re-
gard to this:
This temple should be located as
near the National Cemetery as possible.
and should consist of a massive build
ing to be used for National purposes,
such as inaugural exercises, National
conventions and state occasions. Ris-
ing from this building and surmounting
the same will be a tower 25 stories in
hight. In each story there will be
mounted two bells, representing two of
the 46 States of the Union. The name
of each State and coat-of-arms thereof
shall be cast upon each bell. The larg-
est of these bells to weight three and
a half tons; the smallest 500 pounds.
These bells are arranged and adapted
TO play automatically by means of an
electric motor, while the music is gov
erned by perforated sheet of paper
on rolls substantially the same as the
music produced by the piano player in
common use. The intervals at which
the bells should play is governed by
cloekworl, and the National airs, the
reveille, the curfew and the requiem for
the dead shall be played daily at pre-
determined hours, so that when these
bells begin to peal forth their mighty
tones the 46 States of the Union Will be
singing in harmony together in a Ma
tional anthem in commemoration of our
fellow heroes. In addition to the bells
there shall be 46 female statues, repre-
senting the 46 States of the Union, each
holding aloft a laurel wreath, and be-
meath said wreath the grave of SOL
dier, and upon his tombstone the name
of the battlefield where he fell, togeth-
er with the number of killed. wounded
and missing in that engagement"
He would have one week of each
year set apart for each State in the
Union. during which time the flag of
that State should wave side by side with
the Stars and Stripes.

defraying the expenses of 100 men
who were TO be sent broadcast thru
this country and the other continent to
make thoro investigation of whence

securing material for a campaign book,
