BOYCOTT NOT so FUNNY.

Minneapolis manager of the
Northern theatre has sued the Moving
Picture Operators union for 81 300 dam
ages and asks for an injunction restrain
ing these unionists from advertising his
place as hostile to organized labor.
Low-wage employers are organized in
to a Citizens Alliance and when the
theatrical manager began operating his
house on the non-union plan he was
highly praised for his independence;
But patronage fell off and now he tells
the court it is not the kind of advertis-
ing he expected.

Postoffiee Employees Ready for Christ
mas Rush, But Patrons Should
do Their Share.

Postoffice employees are ready for
the Christmas rush. Substitutes will
be placed on duty to assist the regular
force and Postmaster G. w. Wilkin-
son and his corps of assistants have
everything in readiness to handle the
situation with quickness and dispatch.
While every effort is being made by
the postoffice officials to expedite de-
livery in every possible way, the CO.
operation Of the public is desired in
order to avoid confusion or any posi-
BILE delay. Packages may be marked
on the outside Not to be opened until
Christmas" and mailed at any time
and will aid the department greatly
In avoiding the usual rush during the
closing days.
Here are some points for the ship
pers: ~
1T is noted that some people do not
understand that the sender's name and
address must appear on the wrapper
as we'll as the name and address of
the person to whom the parcel is be-
ing sent" said Postmaster Wilkin-
son.
I'VE have many inquiries as to the
limit OF weight for fourth class matter
to Canada. The weight is limited to
four pounds and six ounces and eighth
zone rate covers the postage.
The insurance schedule on parcel
post packages makes 1t possible for
everyone sending packages to enjoy
the insurance at little expense. The
fixed charges are 8 cents for valuation
up to So. cents up to $25, 10 cents
up to $50, and 25 cents UP to $100.
Parcels should be wrapped and tied
securely. Tags for insured mail can
be had by applying at the postoffice
or to your carrier.
Insured mail must be taken to the
register window after postage and in
affixed, where a receipt will be given
you.
III nom postage stamps are used
they should be placed on the back OF
the covers, but not over the string and
in no way used as a seal"

My post was to extend from a

down the canal. Now believe me it
was pretty interesting at times. First
I'd hear the ytpe Of timber wolf or
coyote, then the chirp of some un-
known thing. What made it seem like
real war was that at any time some
one might sneak up and take a shot

blank ammunition it would shake a
fellow in his boots.

We were told that we would have

was only two minutes. Three regi-

times before the war when we appear

course, the war ras altered much in

Mr.. Scott says:
Just 200 Miles.
Thank goodness we are back from
our wild goose chase. Just a nice
morning walk, about 200 miles. DO
you think you could do 1t?
Some days we made twenty one
miles, others from fourteen to eight
cen. not on good roads either-it was
through brush and cactus most of the
time.
Il suppose you have seen an ac-
count of it in the papers. A supposed
real fight between the Browns and
Whites. 1t was the most realistic
thing in the world-yes. we even
crossed rivers up to our waists where
we could just as well cross a bridge,
but it was supposed to have been de-
stroyed by the Browns.
Our large battle came after we had
made the Browns retreat to within ten
miles Of Brownsville, Texas.
Our brigade is composed of the
Fourth and Fifth Nebraska and the
First North Dakota.
The Big Fight.
The day the big fight took place
we were the right wing Of the main
body and were a distance of about
six miles from them. We were not
called in at pightfall, so made a bri-
gade bivouac for that night. We had
to place a strong guard around our
camp and at the same time guard as
much as possible Of the main body.
This was the one time the company
clerk had to do guard duty. B com
pany was to form a part OF the patrol
Now as to our position Of camp:
To our east we had large canal, 10
the west a railroad. To the north,
woods, and to the south brush. also a
force Of about 5000 Of the enemy and
only two miles from our camp.

BROWN THINKS IT WAS

Street Railway Manager Sent PIows

TT was the worst storm we have
had since 1906" said c. P. Brown,
manager of the Fargo Moorhead Street
Railway Co, this morning in speaking
of the blizzard Of last night. "It was a
real old-time blizzard" .
Mr.. Brown stayed up until o'clock
this morning, when the wind abated
sufficiently to send out the snowplows
and sweepers to clear the lines. T.
1T would have been useless to send
out a sweeper while the wind was
blowing at the rate it was last night,
and the snow drifting so rapidly. How
ever, our lines were in good shape,
there being only two places where
there were drifts that amounted to
anything. These were at the end Of
the Sacred Heart Academy line, and at
Dilworth." .s
