ga 10y first baptism of blood was
Nh at Fort Donelson, on the
Cumberland river near

"a RY first baptism of blood was
/" at Fort Donelson, on the
Cumberland river near
Nashville, Tenn. and ter
rife fight it was,'' said Representative
Sanford Kirkpatrick of Iowa, who mas
seen thirty years Of remarkable service
in the internal revenue service since
the war.
"The weather was bitterly cold for
that part of the country, and, following
as it did the battles at Fort Henry, the
wounded of our army suffered terribly.
ALI of our troops were in sore need OF
tents AND even blankets.
''The fort was right on the banks of
the Cumberland and consisted of strong
outer works, with almost impregnable
inner works in the shape of a square.
About o'clock of the first day Of the
fight I was standing near the colonel
of our regiment, the Second Iowa in
fantry, who was Colonel J. NJ. Tuttle.
General Smith, whom we all knew by
sight, came riding up and addressed
himself to Colonel futile in the hear
ing of all the men.
"'Do you believe God ever made men
brave enough to take the fort on yon-
der hillT asked General Smith, point
ing to the grim fort on the river bank.
Eyes replied Colonel Tuttle lacon-
ically, and he promptly ordered the
charge
''There was heavy abatis of felled
trees between our position and the fort,
which lay in such position that when
we charged the Confederates could not
reach us until we were within about
thousand yards of them. There were
SIG men in our regiment when they
moved forward, and at the first volley
after we got within the fatal thou
sand yard limit, nearly half of the men
fell killed or wounded. There were ex-
actly 296 of our regiment killed Or
wounded within three minutes after
the action began.
"Those of us left rushed up, and so
/ fierce was the onslaught that that part
of the field was dubbed by the Confed-
crates the Hornets Nest and our bri-
gade was nicknamed the Hornets Nest
BRIGADE which appellation is still car
ried by the survivors and always allud-
ed to at Memorial day exercises 1D

FARGO MERCHANT
SOLVES PROBLEM
:"
HAS DEVISED A METHOD BY
WHICH THE HIGH COST OF
LIVING CAN BE REDUCED
MAKING BIG SUCCESS TOO.

One of the most recent successes in
merchandising in Fargo is the series
of 1-cent' sales inaugurated by the
Fargo Drug Co. and the Economy
Drug Co., two of Fargo's most por.u-
lar stores, known as "the Rexall
stores, which feature the finest of
merchandise in their lines at popular
prices.
The 1-cent sale Is unique. It offers
purchasers opportunity to buy articles
of any price at 1 cent each. This
seems the height of philanthropy and
would at first. glance indicate that the
store which offers an article that sells
for rs cents, say, at / n would 500
go out of business, but these stores
have demonstrated that goods a be-
sold in this way and prosper.
The idea is to make the 1-cent sale
a big advertisement for the stores and
the loss in price is simply advertising.
appropriation that Is we'll spent if one
is to judge by the constantly increas-
ing popularity of the stores. Nothing
cheap or shoddy is offered; the best of
standard goods, drugs, medicines,
toilet goods. stationery. confectionery.
rubber goods. etc; something every
home needs and many articles that
are particularly timely just now in the
hot weather.
The Fargo Drug Co. and the Econo-
my Drug Co. are announcing their
biggest 1-cent sale for Friday and
Saturday of this week. 1t will pay
every reader Of The Forum to call at
these stores and get a share of the
fine things which are offered at 1 cent
each. Almost anything you want in
the way of drugs and medicines, pop
ular advertised standard goods, face
creams M powders, candy, cigars,
ETC., at prices unheard Of before. This
