With solemn and impressive cere-
monies the last sad rites for the late
M. j. Bekke were held in the German
Lutheran church yesterday after
noon. The respect in which the
former vice president of the council
was held by his brothers in office
and the citizens of Mankato was elo-
quently attested by the immense
congregation which crowded the
church auditorium to capacity and
the sorrowful mood which pre-
vailed at the loss of this estimable
townsman.

from 10 a. M, and was viewed by
many of the citizens. The casket
was covered by beautiful floral
pieces from council members, police
and fire department, and lodge
brothers, and relatives and friends
of the deceased, last tribute of the
esteem in which he was held by all.
Shortly after $3.50 the funeral
service was held AS Professor Hugo

children, Aaron and Miss Edna, as
chief mourner entering first. Follow
ing them came the councilmen, then
the police force and men of the fire
department, both bodies in full uni
form, making a stately and imposing
entrance. The opening hymn was
sung by the congregation, after
which Rev. A. F. Winter, the pastor.
gave the altar service. Miss Ruth
Ann Sapey, who possesses a beauti-
full voice, sang the hymn Face to
Face the sad and touching words
of the song bringing tears to the
eyes Of all as the sentiments ex-
pressed reached all hearts. After a
hymn by the congregation Rev.
Winter preached an eloquent funer-
al sermon, touching on the life of
the deceased, the gloom cast over
the city by his sudden death, and
the hope of meeting again in the
life to come. The congregation sang
a hymn, after which Rev. Winter
gave the altar service, and read a
paper Of the career of Mr.. Bekke.
The closing hymn was sung by the
congregation, and Prof. Hugo Frey

little temporary success.
Allied Center Gaining Ground.
London, Aug. 23.-Both allied wings
on the Saloniki front, where the SOL
diers Of at least seven nations are in
battle, have been sent back by the
Bulgarians. In the center, however,
where the allies main force is driving
at the entrance to the great Vadar
valley, Paris reports important gains.
Nothing is said about the Russian
or Italian share in the fighting and no
information has been given as to their
strength. The Serbians apparently
have been the heaviest losers and have
been forced back on their extreme
left about five miles from the Serbian
Greek frontiers.
They claim, however, continued
progress on the other sections of their
front.
On the allied right the British and
French, who had crossed the Struma
towards the Bulgarian frontier, have
been forced back on the river.
On the Western front there has been
little change. The British continue
their efforts to surround Thiepval and
report the capture Of 100 yards Of
German trenches in the direction of
Martinpuich. There has been no &C.

ton
For several days meager Russian re-
ports have insisted that nothing of i'm
portance has occurred in the east. Ber-
lin, however, describes very heavy
fighting, both on the Stokhod and in
the Carpathians. An interesting fea-
ture of the Russian official statement
is the intimation that the Grand Duke
Nicholas again is pressing his often
sive in the Caucasus. For the last
two days Petrograd has emphasized
the fighting around Diarbekr but no
important change has occurred.
There is no news from the Italian
front. where lull has existed for sew

FINE OUTING OF MANKATO
PARTY AT FORT RLDGELY

TUNE wearing of the Green"l
When we first come to this country
In eighteen fifty-two
st. Peter was a vacant lot
MankatO was a slough.
Then when we built Fort Ridgely
In eighteen fifty three
The white folks said we're safe al
last
No danger can there be-"
But then along came Little Crow
With all his warriors bold,
He said to them We've stood enough
Well bust their old stronghold"
Three times they tried their level best
To deal the fort blow
The white folks rallied east anC
west
And busted Little Crow.
And now we come to celebrate
This victory so grand
With autos stead of oxen, swift
We travel Ger the land.
No more we fear the tOmahawk
No more the the red mans white,
We're living in better age,
You bet it on your life.
