COLD HAS NOT NlPPED EN-
Drafted Boys at Camp Dodge Are All
to the Good.
UNITED Press Dispatch.

UNITED Press DlSpatcn.J
Camp Dodge, Ia, December a.
Parents of drafted men at the can
torment here who have been worry
ing about their boys during the cold
spell can rest easy. The zero wealth
er that has put a zip in the training
here has not affected the youngsters
at ALL
Last week when the temperature
dropped to six degrees there was lit
tie or no complaint from the men
who passed the night in the barracks.
Only a few instances of frozen water
pipes were reported, which is con-
sidered remarkable, when it is re-
membered that more than 100000
feet of pipes were not interfered with
through freezing.
The prediction made this fall that
the barracks which were nailed to-
there" when the wintry blasts hit
the cantonment were also dispelled.
The three large furnaces in every
barracks has been going at full tilt
without waste of fuel however, and
the buildings have been comfortable
at all times. The big ranges used in
the kitchens of each barrack also do
their bit in keeping the temperature
in the building right.
Officers said today they were al
most certain that even colder wealth
er than that which hit the camp dur
ing the last few days would have
only little chance to discomforting
the men.
During the cold weather the out
side work of the men has been re-
duced but there has been consider
able back drilling" so the men won't
lose much time through the chilly
winds.

With Having Stolen Blanket.
A suspended sentence of sixty days
in the county Jail was given G. R
Menthar of Mankato this morning in
the municipal court room The charge
was petit larceny. The complaint was
made by L. Salet
Menthar was charged with stealing
a blanket from the Salet store yester-
day afternoon. An auction had taken
place there, and at about six O'Clock
he was walking out with the five dol
lar blanket under his arm He told Mr.
Salet that he had bought it for thirty
five cents. Mr. Salet entered a com
plant and had the man arrested.
At the trial this morning it developed
that Menthar is not living with his
family and has had no divorce, and
could not explain the blanket, un-
wrapped, under his arm, after the
clerks had left. The Judge finally SEN
fenced him to sixty days in the county
Jail, but suspended the sentence during
good behavior. The blanket was re-
turned to Mr.. Salet at the trial.
