SOLDIERS VIEW.

Vossiche Zeitung quotes a letter
from soldier to his little sister, who
had written to him asking him to kill
a lot of Russians" and "to gain a new
victory in order to cheer us up" He
writes
Kill lot of Russians!" You have
not seen them lying about-those poor
dead, with their singularly solemn
faces.
You have not seen the battle which
preceded, and the bad wounds which
so many of my friends got in trying to
kill lot of them You do not think
Of the fact that those dead men had
parents, brothers and sisters, whom
they loved.
And you have not seen the harrow
ing destruction of the villages and
towns-how the poor hunteddowu
population is running away, leaving
everything they had behind them to
be consumed by the flames.
And then, remember, we are not
fighting in order to cheer you up
we are not lying about in the open
air day and night, starved and sui
fering from wounds and home sick
ness. in order that you at home may

which to handle the gravel Mr. Rae
has organized company which will
commence operations in the near flu

AT the old Douglass tailings, below
Dayton, the Metals Reduction Com
pany has been idle for several months.
Mr.. Boyle, President of the company,
visited the plant recently for the pur-
pose to provide for the resumption of
work on this dump. Several million
yards still remain untleated, an area
of at least twenty-five acres being
covered to a depth of ten feet. This
company has spent large amount
of money installing the plant which
will be remodeled to a slight exte.lt,
and by such adjustment it is believed
will be operated at a large profit.

Mr.. Knight Of Barton thought the pro-
posed legislation was entirely In favor
of the rich and against the poor man. He
didn't believe that the act would bring
out intangible property. He thought
there was considerable merit in the pres
ent law. People seem to be hungry for

FIRE DESTROYS FARM HOME.

Fire Of unknown origin drove the
family of G. J. Grossmann of Linden
from their beds last Wednesday night
and prevented them from saving more
than very small part of their household
goods. 1t is supposed that the fire began
in the basement, near the chimney as it
was first discovered between the walls.
After the family had gone to bed one
OF the members heard a rafting noise in
the wall and supposed it was mouse
scuttling about and thinking to frighten
it into silence raped on the wall. The
cracking continued and it was noticed
that there was smoke in the room and a
hole was cut in the wall where the noise
was heard. The flames burst forth
tiercely and nothing could be done to
check them. Neighbors arrived and
assisted in getting out some of the furni-
ture but little could be saved owing to
the start the flames had secured. The
house was large one and was built
within the last few years, being one of the
finest farm homes in that section. There
was insurance Of $4,000. on the building
and $1,000 on the furniture but this will
not nearly cover the loss.
The family moved into the granary
the next morning and will live there until
the building season opens.

of Wilhelmine Salkowske, deceased. In
this case the plaintiff sought to recover
damages sustained by reason of being
caused to part with its equity in some

perty by giving his wife the income
thereof for and during the term Of her

parts, one to the plaintiff, one to her
heirs and one to his heirs. After his
death the widow tried to sell some of her
real estate and found that she could not
do so unless all of the residuary legatees
and devises joined in the conveyance.
It was then that the plaintiff was in
duced to part with it's interest in the real
estate for certain sum when the
property at the time was actually worth
about 5 times as much. The jury de-
cided in favor of the plaintiff and awarded
them the sum of $2268.17.

GETTING CHUMMY WITH IOWA.

Good roads workers from various
parts of Minnesota and Iowa held an
important meeting at Fort Dodge, Iowa,
last Tuesday, when an organization was
perfected to build the Daniel Boone Trail
from Des Moines to the twin cities. A
St. Peter man was honored with one of
the Offices in the new organization, AL. J.
Potts being elected as member of the
board of directors.
The Daniel Boone Trail is the new
name for the Minnesota Valley Scenic
Highway, which project was revived re-
Gently when j. B. McHose of Boone,
Iowa, offered proposal that Iowa build
a highway from Des Moines to Mankato.
At the latter place the scenic highway
route would be taken over, and the road
will run through St. Peter, LIE Sueur, Belle
Plaine, Jordan and Shakopee to the
cities.
At the meeting at Fort Dodge last
Tuesday the following officers were
elected: J. B. McHose, Boone, presi-
dent; John H. Holman, Mankato, first
vice president; B. F. Ford, Fort Dodge,
second vice president; w. J. Hargen,
Boone, secretary and treasurer. The
Minnesota directors are: John H. Hob
mann, Mankato; Al. J. Potts, St. Peter;
J. A. Moriarity, Shakopee; J. H. Beck,
St. Paul, and J. J. Waddell, Minneapolis.
The Minnesota delegation offered to
complete crawling the old scenic route
from the Iowa line to the cities if Iowa
would agree to gravel the road from Des
Moines to the boundary. Iowa will
undertake to do this, meeting Minnesota's
completed road by July 1st. Ultimately
it is planned to extend the road to
Duluth.
