Paul Lehman of R%ichardton said
Thursday that he had fed an unusu-
ally large amount of hay to his stock
the past winter. For two months
the cattle did not Craze any. Last
year Mr.. Lehman had so acres of
ground seeded in March but this
year it hardly looks now as though
he would get started on the land
much before the first of April.
Henry Klein of Halliday, general
manager of the Killer Lumber Co.
yards at Halliday, Werner and Dunn
Center, was a Dickinson visitor re-
Gently. He stated that the Killer
Lumber Co. has purchased the Dun
ham lumber yards at Richardton, and
will use their sheds as headquarters
for their own lumber business. Mr..
Klein is a former Stark county resi-
dent and has a large circle of friends
in this county.
L. R. Woolery, a we'll known farmer
residing in the Sennef vicinity, was
"a Dickinson visitor on Wednesday, en-
route to Manning with the election
returns from his precinct in Dunn
county. The roads between his place
and Manning were impossible owing
to the high water in the creeks,
and as a result he had to first go to
Kichardton and from there to Dick
inson. From this city he went to
Manning by stage.

JOHN BOSCH THROWS "KID"
LATTA TWO STRAIGHT FALLS

Last week the Press neglected to
chronicle the result of the Bosch
Latta wrestling match, held in the
St. Anthony hall on the South Side.
John Bosch of Dickinson threw "Kid'
Latta, the we'll known Bismarck
wrestler, in two straight falls-the
first in four minutes, and the latter
in 38 minutes. Bosch came to Dick
inson from Holland only a couple of
years ago, and is new to the North
Dakota wrestling world. He is a
good man, and will undoubtedly make
a record for himself.
He is arranging for another match
to take place in Dickinson on Satur-
day, April LIST, with Farmer Berg
Of Hodges, Montana, a fast western
wrestler. An exciting match is being
looked forward to.

IRISH PLAY GREETED
By LARGE AUDIENCE

A full house greeted the comedy
"Faugh-a-Ballagh" presented by the
young people of St. Patrick's church
last Friday evening. The cast was
remarkably good. j. L. Monsoon, the
hero, az Capt. "Faugh-a-Ballagh,"
carried out his part in a very brave
and gallant style. His heroic deeds
often led him into situations which
aroused the deep concern of the
sweet and modest little heroine, Miss
Alice Quinlan, who off the stage is
known as Miss Anna Hillesheim.
Miss Margaret Conklin, as the
pretty Kitty Callahan, whose saucy
yet charming ways, were not lost on
Miles Griffin, a devoted follower of
the captain, was Immediately a favor
tie with the audience. Her lover, Leo
Detloff taking the part, occasioned
many a laugh by his boyish pranks.
Edward Bartik did fine acting as
the william, "Black Donald" Williams

particular one has elected much

praise.

pId4ocs
Old Squire Gilmore, as represented
by A. P. Ellian, was an English Of
ficer of power. He was heartless and
cold and in league with "Black
Donald" against the Irish rebel. He
came to timely repentance, however,
and portrayed the marked change in
his character exceedingly we'll.
The dignified and quiet manner of
Mark Quinlan, played by VIM. Danish,
was well suited to his part as a
banished clergyman, who had suffered
a good deal. At times his just anger
would leap forward, but subside again
at the thought Of his loved ones.
The several loyal soldiers of the
captain, who were just learning the
ms and outs of drilling were the
source of much merriment and re-
lieved the more serious parts of the
play.
Between curtains Leo Detlof gave
the audience a demonstration of
fancy jigging and was recalled by the
spectators to perform it all over
again. Mrs. A. P. Nachtwey later
delighted her hearers with a quaint
Irish song which she sang and acted
most charmingly. She gracefully re-
sponded twice to encores, the audi
ence applauding for even more. For
several minutes the applause accord
ed Mrs. Nachtwey was almost deafen-
ing.
The neat sum of about 5000 was
realized from the play. This will be
added to the st. Patrick's treasury.

WONDERFUL MOTION PICTURE
BEING SHOWN AT THE BIJOU

The Vitagraph-Liebler motion pic
ture version Of Hall Gaines "The

daring invasion ever attempted by
motion picture producers and is re-
cognized as the most masterful,
most elaborate, and most sumptuous
photo drama ever produced; it is not
only a triumph for the producers, but
for the whole art of INSTALLATION
over that of literature. This master
piece in eight parts will be presented
at the Bijou theatre today (Friday)
and Saturday. a-l&-# =~a. l..

WAR NOTES

The report is now that Villa is alive
and has asked Carranza for commits
sion in the Mexican army.
Japan will not take hand in the
Mexican war. Foreign minister Baron
Ishii says the idea is as absurd as that
the Japan government is furnishing
ammunition and supplies to Mexico.
David Starr Jordan, William Jen-
nings Bryan and Frank P Walsh have
been urged to go TO FL Paso to hold
conference with Mexican citizens in an
attempt TO avert war. Some of the
ablest men of this country and Mexico
are identified with the movement.
On June u a small force OF $50.

mission but asked for parley with

talking. Mexican soldiers nearly sur
rounded the American forces. Capt.

Y. NJ. C. A. CAMPS

Wausau boys are to have the advan-
tage of a real Northern camp this
year under the direction of the Y NJ
c. A. This camp is to be located on
Lake, Munger, which is about forty
miles north of Shawano. The only
approach to the lake is over a logging
railroad as shown by the accompany
ing cut, and il will be necessary to
run a special train in order to get the
boys out to the lake. This camp is
to open August 18th, and will run for
ten days for which a charge of ten
dollars for board and equipment will
be made.
The Y. NJ. c. A. boys camp at Chain
o'-Lakes is to be the popular camp
again this summer for Wausau boys,
and already many have signed up to
go. The camp will open the 18th of
August and continue for two weeks.
The camp can only accommodate about
100 boys and early reservations are
quite important. The following boys
have already made their reservations:
Roy Melvin, Chester and Elvin Hart
lett, Elmer Larson, Freeman Otto,
Willard Bump, Walter Bissell, John
Sturtevant, Roscoe Boles, Carl Tunni-
cliffe, Jack Smith, William Gamble,

FROM CAMP DOUGLAS
Sunday afternoon, June %, 1917

Sunday afternoon, June %, 1916.
Wausau Pilot:
Since we pitched tents we have
been very busy. We have about 30 new
men in camp and are straining every
effort to make troopers of them In
all we have 1O1 men in our campfire
full requirement. Sixteen volunteers
Just left for Milwaukee to recruit
another troop, which will become
Troop B. These are the only troops
of cavalry at the present time in the
state. Troop A is of long standing
and only short while ago was the
Light Horse Squadron of Milwau-
kee. Troop A ranks first in the 81
troops of the national guard cavalry
in the u. S. The men are in excellent
condition and are of high standard.
We have a fine lot of horses-all
sorrels and bays and a few blacks.
We have sixty in camp and expect to
have Al more the coming week.
AS for leaving for Mexico the
chances are we will not get away be-
fore 10 days at the least, and it will
probably be longer. We may, how
ever, leave for Camp Jefferson sooner
near st. Louis, Mo. l cannot un-
derstand why the newspapers con-
stantly wish to scare the public. The
only reason why we might leave here
so soon is because of getting supplies,
etc. Then we may go to our horses
instead of them coming to us.
There are about 1000 men in the
reservation. The First, Second and
Third Regiments, Battery, signal
corps, hospital and field, and Troop A,
First Cavalry They are now passing
US through the various steps OF
mastering us into Federal service
Tomorrow evening will probably find
Troop A under direct command OF
President Wilson. 1t will always
stay Troop A, First Cavalry, nc
matter what division or regiment We
are placed IN.
Some of the fellows are from al
parts of the country. One man just
came in from Miles City, Mont. On,
came in from Maine. A while agt
one came from Salt Lake City. Ever.
one seems to be mighty loyal to tn
old Troop.

NEW MILLING COMPANY
Dodge-Hooker Mills Now In Operation.


About one month ago the recently
completed milling and cold storage
plants of the H. E. McEachron mills,
and about ten acres of land adjoining
same, were purchased by the principal
stockholders of the Cereal Mills COM
pany and Northern Milling company
of this city who have changed the
name to Dodge Hooker Mills, and have
elected officers as follows:
President-Chas. Dodge.
Vice Pres. and Mgr-C. H. Hooker.
Treasurer-W. E. Dodge.
Secretary-C. G. Hooker.
The officers, Geo. Pfeiffer, c. G.
Kruger and H. ]. Mckay comprise
the board of directors.
The corn products department is
now working day crew and as soon
as the proper help is secured Will
operate nights also. Some special
equipment and machinery for the bal
ance of the plant will be installed so
that the entire plant can be put into
operation during July or August, or
about the time that the new crops
begin to move to market freely.
The new company will not sell its
products to the local trade but will
operate the plant strictly for manu-
featuring and do a shipping business
principally throughout Wisconsin,
Michigan and Illinois, and the eastern
half of the United States as well as for
the export trade, working on special
products for which it now has con-
siderable trade established, expecting
same will be large enough to run the
plant day and night most of the time.
Other lines can and will be added
as conditions warrant but for the pres
ent the new company expects to de-
velop the manufacture and sale of al
| kinds of stock and poultry feeds, and
handle seeds, hay, potatoes, etc., on
a wholesale scale. These special lines
| will be handled by Chas. G. Hooker
while the active management of the
entire business will be taken care o.
| by c. H. Hooker.
The members of the new compan!
are all actively engaged in the milling
as we'll as other kinds of business il
this city, and being young and ener
getic will probably make this new in
stitution one of our leading industries

THE HEROES OF 1916

Thursday mornings train on the
Northwestern road, carried away the
members of our home military COM
pany to. Camp Douglas, where they
will remain until ordered down on TO
the Mexican border, and to defend
our country with their lives if neces-
sary. While at Camp Douglas they
will be thoroughly-drilled each day to
harden and put them in condition for
hardships of war 1t does not seem
but few years ago when the same
thing was gone through with in the
war with Spain. Then, as now, our
citizens Wed with each other in doing
honor to the brave lads who went to
the front. From the time they were
called out on Monday afternoon until
they left for Camp Douglas, they put
in most of the hours drilling. They
all realize that whether it is war, or
going down to guard the frontier, it
means a lot of hard work, and perhaps
sickness and death to some of them,
on account of the climatic conditions.
Our people trust that they may not
have to enter into real war; that their
stay away from home may not be
long and every member of the COM
pany return home again in the very
best of health. 1t is certain that
whether the boys are far or near, the
people of Wausau will keep a close
watch over them, and will be ready
to extend aid whenever needed.
Wausau has never failed in this, as
the heroes of 1860 and 1908 can testify
and those of 1916 will be able to so
proclaim when they return.
