Have Been Unearthed
At JudsOn

Four automobiles filled with Man

on the Humphrey j. Roberts farm
in Judson yesterday to view the
excavations being made by Professor
in the party were Judge Evan
Hughes, Attorney Thomas Hughes,

w. H. Pay, Mr.. and Mrs. Frank
Pay, Miss Mary Pay Amos Messer,
Rev. c.. J. Shut, Mrs. Florence
Stubbs, and Miss Eva Cooper, Prof
fessor Nickerson had opened the
east half of the mound, and a pit
7xS feet had been unearthed, which
extended down for a depth of lit
tie over three feet, with bottom of
yellow clay smoothed like a cement
floor The sides were reinforced by
some unknown whitish material, and
some ancient bones were found in
the pit.
Mr. Roberts recently cut big oak
tree, about eighteen inches thick
from the top of this mound, which
was but one of forest of trees grow
ing in that locality, and which had
evidently grown since the mound was
made, so it is thought that the con-
tents OF the pit and the mound is
probably over SEQ years old, possibly
older. On the apex of the mound, and
sunk in the earth, is an old fireplace,

CAPTAIN A.p. SCOTT
RETURNS lROM SOUTH
Late Commandr r of Company
H Returnedfo Mankato;
Out ofIMi|itia

Captain A. o. Scott, who, as an
nounced in last Nights Free Press,
recently resigned from the command
of Company H, $rrived in Mankato
at 500 a. M, todAy. The captain Of
fered his resignation on August "a
and it was accepted on October 2.
He resigned on account of pressure of
other business and illness in his fam
lily, his wife ands daughter being ill
at the time. The company is now
under the command of First Lieu
tenant H. M. Hauck. Captain Scott
says he is out of military work en-
tirely. The captain will rest about
two weeks, and will then resume his
position with the Landkamer under
taking and furniture establishment.
Captain Scott was asked now the
boys of Company H were getting
along, and he said they -.ere doing
very well. He said the records show
ed Company H to be the healthiest
in the regiment, having had less sick
calls and less men in the hospitals
than any other.
The captain remarked that it was
true that the government was not
ready for the men when they arrived
in the south. Things had been de-
layed But after the first two days
the food proposition was in pretty
good shape. At first some of the
boys had way of heaping up their
plates very full and afterwards
throwing part of the food on the fire
not realizing that they were throw
ing their next meal on the fire. But
in time the system was well organ
lied and worked well. The officers
did all they coulo to get the boys the
necessaries of the camp life.
The captain said there could hard
ly be said to have any actual suffer
ing from the want of necessaries
About the only time there was actual
suffering was on the day of that great
storm, when the tents were blown
down and flooded.

Roy Culp, living at 212 East Broad

were supposed to be his friends. This
place is down the river on the Man

pointed out the way. He showed us
the place and we could see foot

to be true, just as he said, that the
two men carried him over to the
river and threw him IN.

and weeds were tramDled down, on
the spot where the assault was COM
Snitted, according to Mr.. Delivers
story. What is more, we found his

thing that we found bore out his
story.
