DOG BURIED


Gettysburg, March 24.-tTrixie,"
a bird dog owned by George Adams,
is now re~cuperating from an unusual
experience, which rivaled, in a way,
exploits of DR.. Tanner and other ia
nous fasters, though in Trixie's case
experiment was entirely involuntary.
On February 2, Trixie accom-
panied Frank French and George
Adams to a place five miles from
town, where they got a load of hay
from a big stack there. Upon their
return home Trixie was missing and
the men supposed she had strayed
away or had been stolen. after she
failed to appear.
Thirty-nine days later Messrs.
French and Adams again visited the
haystack to get another load of hay.
They worked on another part of the
stack from that where they secured
the first load and in a little while
they heard a sound, as a dog whin-
ing. Going around to the other end
of the stack where they had taken the
previous load, French could hear the
whining much palmer. Digging
through a snow bank six or seven
feet deep, and into the hay for sew
eral feet, he found Trixie, decidedly
emaciated, but very much alive.
While loading the hay a quantity
had evidently fallen on the dog, bury
ing her. Later a heavy snow fell,

TRACK WORK
SOUTH DAKOTA UNIVERSITY
MEN AWAIT THE COMING
OF GOOD WEATHER.

vermillion, March 24.-The long
hold on of King Winter is playing
havoc with the track aspirations of
South Dakota schools. as none of
them have especially good accommo-
dations for indoor work. Locally
the men are practicing starts and
general conditioning work in the
gymnasium, while reports of cross
country work come from the other
schools. Unless winter clears up
speedily it may prevent the South
Dakota schools from entering the
Drake relays at Des Moines April IT.

away as their friends hope, South Da-
kota will have a great track team, as
the two alone might take any of the

with the fast Hamline men out OF

Vidal Is reputed to be a six-foot high
jumper. and capable of climbing the
high hurdles. The distances are
likely to be weak, unless new mater

teers Services Toward
Equipment Of Scoutmasters.

Capt. John e. Brooks, n. G. ID. c.,
who is an advocate Of the Boy Scout
movement. has volunteered his services
as an instructor to teach the scoutmas-
ters the drill as called for in tho Hand
book for Scoutrasters" .Scoutma sters
and assistant scoutmasters will be first
taught the rudiments, in order that they
may be able to properly instruct the
boys. Captain Brooks will take up the
school Of the soldier, the school Of the
squad. the school of the company, and
the school Of the platoon. and give in
str1lctions in other branches.
When approached with a suggestion
thes this manner Of training was con-
Gectcd with militarism, Field Secretary
8. s. Aplin, said:
THE question of militarism will enter
Into this drill arrangement, but it Is
ridiculous to make the statement that il is
too full Of militarism or that it is turn
ang the Boy Scouts into a military or
Eanization. Anyone, who has had mill
tary training knows that q troop, even
with a perfect knowledge Of the few
commands given in the handbook is
worthless as a military body. The great
number Of boys forming the troops OF a
city cannot be moved without some kind
Of formation"
Every scoutmaster and assistant scout
master will receive instructions as to
what to study and when the first drill
will take place.
