WARNED OFF THE PREMISES
Picket Waxed Indignant at Careless
Action of Scouting Party of
the Enemy.

"Many man goes to war without
the slightest conception of what it
really. is" said a veteran of Gen.
Robert E. Lees army. I'm 1864 had
command of a detail made up of a
dozen or two recruits that had just
come up from the gulf states. The
first night we were near the enemy,
managed to find deserted cabin and,
after placing my picket out In front,
we flung ourselves down to sleep. In
the middle Of the night I changed the
picket, selecting for duty young
fellow who had exhibited the most in
tense longing to exterminate the en-
tire northern army.
about dawn / was awakened by
the well-known ping, ping!' of bullets
against the logs of the cabin and the
expostulating voice Of my picket Go
ing to the door I saw that a small
scouting party of federal soldiers had
discovered signs of Confederates in
the cabin and were trying to drive
us out by firing from the opposite
hill I turned to my picket and gave
a gasp of establishment. The young
man stood in the midst of the clear
ing while the bullets whistled around
him. There was no sign Of fear
about him, but he was tremendously
excited. He had dropped his musket
and was waving his arms, trying to at
tract the attention of the enemy, and
shouting at the top of his voice in
tones Of remonstrance:
"Sa-a-y, you fellows over yonder
Don't you all be a-shootin in here;
thar's folks in here!"-New York

We are in receipt of circular letter
from the general passenger agent of
the Pere Marquette R. r. advising us
of the recently announced policy of the
new executive, Mr.. w. A. Garrett,
and intimating that we speak good
word for the road, so here goes. This
road took its original title from fine
old man, missionary to the Indians,
Pere Marquette. This is the best
thing about it of recent years, during
which time tribe of Indians that had
apparently survived all missionary
effort, headed by Chief j. P(owhattan)
Morgan, laid hold on old Pere Mar
quette's namesake, scalped it and have
since held it for ransom. If the stran-
gle hold of these ''financiers" can be
loosened and the water squeezed out of
it's stock, if the earnings of the road
can be applied to its present necessities
and improvement instead of furnishing
dividends on fictitious values, we shall
hope to see the road prosper and be-
come what it has every right to be-
come, one of the greatest and most i'm

This was the seventeenth day of con-
tinued hard fighting along the one
hundred and fifty miles front, from
Somme to Msse!le, and as yet there is
no definite Indication of the historic
battle being nearly finished.
There is, however, evidence of the
Germans receding before the forcible
and sustained pushing from the allied
armies, especially on the western and
eastern wings, while in the center,
where the Germans are more strongly
entrenched with heavy artillery, they
remain almost stationary.
It is generally concluded that some
important move must soon be made by
the Germans, who found it impossible
to stem the allies advance, though
offering the sternest and most desper-
ate resistance, and sacrificing thou

therefore is advantageously situated
for jus such job. Up OF the present

year-old daughter, Ruth, from whose
bronchial tubes had been taken the
brass headed tack swallowed some
time ago while at play. The noted spe-
cialist who handled the very difficult
case required three attempts before
becoming successful-the first two
taking three or four hours and the
last only an hour and a half. The
earliest attempt demonstrated the ne
cessity of specially designed instru-
ments, and one was constructed to
reach down the windpipe-with teles-
cope and electric light-but the tack
could not be grasped because of its
having become imbedded in the It's
sues. In the last operation the speci-
alist was enabled to delicately sever
about the parts in which the tack had
located and then get hold of it and
remove it. After each operation lit

HOLDUP MEN GET

Langdon, N. D., Oct. IA sentence
of two years in the state penitentiary
at Bismarck was given by Judge
Kneeshaw to John Robertson, white,
and Charles Stevens, colored, who ap-
peared before the court and entered a
plea of guilty to charge of robbery
last week at Alsen. The victims Of the
holdup were two colored men who had
been companions of Robertson and
Stevens as threshers in that locality
this fall. The fact that gun play
figured in the holdup, together with
evidence showing that the pair were
bootleggers, accounts for what might
appear under other circumstances as
severe sentence for them.
