Jackson's move had he known anything
about it, but while we were trying to
get through the thick wood the roar of
musketry and artillery OH our right con-

We now came back at a gallop toward
a point between the place where we were
resting and the place where the battle
was raging. AS we rode into an elevated
clearing called Hazel grove the regiment
was called into line. We surmised dis

the ordeal, not knowing whether we were
to make an attack or wait there to re-

The roar of musketry was now heavier
and nearer; the vast woods about us
seemed to shake with it. There was no
time to ask or to wonder what had hap
pened. for the regiment was ordered off
at gallop After riding about three hun
dred yards we turned into narrow road
that promised to take us into the midst of
the enemy. Half a dozen hOrSemen in
cadet gray-most likely a generals staff
reconnoitering as they did not ride in
ranks-were in the road ahead of us, and
turned and fled back to their lines.
The word ''Charge,' was now passed
from the leading squadron. and sabers
flew into the air along our line; but none
too soon for we were already in the
midst of the foe. and they were ready for

1t was a long lane and a hot lane to go

"Sure, Mike; but gosh, girls, |

Duluth. Civil Engineer Active. in
Work Which Nay be- Made to
Furnish Power to Al Est
East End Range Cities,

There is a. better prospect Of the
water power on the St. Louis river
being used than at any time in the
past.
D. A.. Reed, the well known Du-
luth civil engineer, who has done
some Of the biggest work under
taken in. this section, is now in
charge Of the proposed, develop
ment.
Included in the plan is to Sc
cure big storage capacity at
the headwaters of the Partridge
river and be ready to furnish all
the power necessary for all the
eastern Mesaba range towns.
The Biwabik village council
considered letter from Mr..
Reed Saturday evening, in which
the village fathers were asked
if they would consider a propos-
al to have the company furnish
current for the village. The
clerk was instructed to write to
Mr.. Reed that if he could show
there would be substantial saw
ing the village would certainly
buy. 1t has been intimated. that
the company will ask the vii age
2 IL to 3 cents kilowat hour,
according to the amount Of cur
rent used. Biwabik now fur
nishes the plant and pays 5
cents a kilowat for its service.
According to state surveys the
St. Louis river can be made to de-
velop more than 1900 horse pow
er without resorting to creating
water head in the lakes, and
this will likely increase the
amount greatly. The company
really expects to be able to. fur
nish towns as far away as Eve
leth and Virginia. The latter
town just recently voted in favor
of municipal ownership and the
development Of this power would
make it unnecessary for the town
to build a plant.
