Chris. Holbrook of the general COM
mittee in charge of Dedication day

ing that the Second Regiment band

gram, and would like to have the

rangements to those of the Mankato
committee, as the Second Regiment
band was the Mankato band

ARMY LIFE HAS The
CALL ON YOUNG men
Those Who Have Been in Ser
vice Before Want To Try
1t Again

That army life always holds out a
fascinating call to men who have
previously served under the colors is
being proved every day by the older
men who have seen service, and
who desire to enlist again.
Ira J. Borland of Worthington,
Mimi, visited the local recruiting sta
ton this week and applied for en-
listment. AS he was forty-six years
of age he was told that he was six
years beyond the age limit. How
ever, he had his papers to show that
he had previously served in the
United States army, and had served
in the Philippines, being retired from
service with the rank of Regimental
Sergeant Major, the highest rank an
enlisted man can get. Sergeant
Mueller wrote to the adjutant gen.
eral requesting permission to enlist
Mr. Borland, and special permission
was given. and he was enlisted in
the infantry. Others who enlisted
were Julian w. TAFT of Arion, Ia. (;
and Lloyd Jessup of this city who en-
listed in the quartermaster corps
and William J. Clarke of Elysian,
who was assigned to Company H.
The first three were shipped to JEFF
ferson Barracks, Mo-, yesterday.
Orders have been received stating
that no more enlistments will be
taken in the signal corps, aviation
section, as it has been filled up

Bundle of the Mind Poison Fell
Into Hands of Mankato
Police

Two selfravowed l.. w. w. mem
bers were detained at the police sta
lion today. Both said they came
from Chicago. They called to get a
big package OF l. W. W. literature
stationery, blanks, seals, stencil out
fits and the like. that came to the
city three or four weeks ago by ex-
press, and, happening to fall into the
hands of the wrong man, found its
way to the police station.
The older of the men, Joseph
Schmidt, aged thirty nine, said he
had sent the package by express from
Indianapolis. A certificate was found
showing him to be an organizer and
a solicitor of members. He said
however, that he did not intend to
work in Mankato for new members
He had heard that this city was very
hostile to that organization. Chief
Ario told him that was true and call
ed his attention to the monument
which showed that thirty eight In
dams were hanged here in one. day
Some of the I. w. w. literature
was pretty wild. This was especially
true of the song book, on the out
side of which was the title, 81. w. W.
Songs to Fan the Flames of Discon-
tent" One song called on people
not to sing "My Country 'Tis of
Thee" but to sing a chorus for the
red flag.
Schmidt said he was a Pole by
birth, and had served in the German
army, though had since become ma
turalized citizen of America. He
said the other man, Stanley Sumow
ski, twenty years old, also a Pole
was his cousin.

.SWEDE HURRIES BACK
WITH HIS WOE STORY
Put In Six Weeks Working in
German Munition actory;
Has Complaint

Stockholm, Sweden, August 5.-[By
Mail. IA Swede has just returned
from six weeks work in a German
munition factory at Torgan with a
most distressing tale of the condition
Of the workers there including some
French, Belgian and Russian prison
ers forced to labor in the shops
The Swede was lured into Germany
by a German named Biltzing, who has
been recruiting labor in Sweden and
Denmark for German munition fac
tories.
Biltzing promised the Swede ten
marks a day, with Only two marks
deducted for board and room and
railroad fare. He accepted and on the
two days trip to Torgan, his entire
food was two sandwiches.
The meals and lodgings were un-
bearable, the Swede said. For break
fast they had two thin slices Of bread
and imitation coffee. Midday dinner
consisted of sauerkraut and potatoes
and at supper they had only sauer-
kraut, which was mostly water. AT
tea time in the afternoon they had, in
addition, two more slices of bread
without coffee. Their. lodgings were
in the pit of an unused theatre, where
thirty two workmen were, barracked
in hunks three tiers high.
The railroad fare was deducted
from his first weeks wages and he
was told it would not be refunded or
the return ticket paid for unless he
worked three months. He was forced
to work on Sundays and was treated
as brutality as the war prisoners.
After six weeks the Swede and two
others pawned their spare clothes,
escaped by stealth and made their
