Number Is Increased.
Sunday Sheriff julius received a
telegram from the adjutant generals
office, instructing him to increase the
number Of men to be sent from this
county from seventy, the original number
specified, to eighty. As a result he has
sent out the notices to the men to.

morning. The men will probably re-
main in the Armory until train time,
except at noon when they will be taken
=tothe hotels and restaurants for dinner.
IS One of the number will be appointed
to act as captain, and another to be
lieutenant, under whose charge they
will be until reaching Mankato, where
they will be turned over to the regular
United States officers.
OF the one hundred names certified
TO by the district exemption board, one

together with the number Of men to 90,
are as follows: Scott, Shakopee, ~;
Sibley, Henderson, So; Nicollet, st.
Peter, AZ; Lincoln, Ivanhoe, 38; Lyon,
Marshall, 60; Brown, New Ulm, 80;
lie Sueur, Center, Sc; Blue Earth,

Cottonwood, Window, 48; Watonwan,
st. james, 36; Faribault, Blue Earth, 50.
These are the numbers as given out by
the railway company on the original
count. It is probable, however, that
the numbers have been increased as was
the case in Brown county, so that the
total number will be much larger than
is Indicated.
St. Paul Quota Increased.
Mondays Pioneer Press says the
number to go from that city, has been
increased approximately fifty or seventy
