CHICAGO HORSE EXPERT BUYS
SYMBOL BARRON, FAST SAUK s
CENTRE HORSE, THIS WEEK

Monday of this week George Butler
sold Symbol Barron, probably the
classiest racer developed in Mime
sofa for many years, to Dick McMa-
hon, a driver and trainer of national
reputation. Mr.. Butler will ship the
horse to Mr.. Mcmahon within a short
time. On Jan. Is Mcmahon will
ship him with his stable of Is others
to Memphis, Tenn, where he will be
trained for the Grand Circuit races
next year.
Mcmahon is the man who developed
Hal Boy with a record of 2.01A and
he told Mr.. Butler on Monday that
Symbol Barron showed him qualities
in his race at Hamline last fall that
he had never seen in any other
horse. The local horse will be en-
tered in several $4,000 stake races
next year, and he will no doubt be
come the star performer of the Nc
Mahon string.
Symbol Barron is right in his prime
he will be seven years old March %,
next. Mr.. Butler bought his as 2
year-old, and although an amateur the
development of the horse was largely
under his direction. He has been a
consistent money winner for the past
two years. With a mark of 2:06A
he was too fast for anything outside
the Grand Circuit and Mr.. Butler felt
that he could not afford to send him
there. Mcmahon paid $2,400 for
Symbol Barron. George says that
while he hates to part with the horse
he knows that he is going into splen-
did hands. He is through with the
horse game.

AS direct result OF the ofgamZa-
ton of the Home Guard company in
this city about IL months ago Sank
Centre will have a Machine Gun COM
pany, forming an important unit OF
the Sixth Regiment Of the Mime
sofa National Guard.
At a meeting of the Home Guards
held shortly after the signing of the
Armstice many of the Guard felt that
they did not care to parade around
in their uniforms after the real soldiers
began to return home, and Capt.
Parker was instructed to get in touch
with the proper authorities and see
what could be done in merging the
Home Guard company into the Ma
tional Guard units then forming.
The first information received was
that every unit of the three regi-
ments organizing were filled, condi-
tionally. However, the hope was held
out that if any of the proposed units
did not make the grade that Sank
Centre would be given an opportunity
to see what she could do.
In this connection it can be made
known that the Sank Centre Home
Guard company stood very high with
the state military authorities, not
only because of the whole-hearted
manner in which the business, pro-
sfessional men and citizens generally
had backed up the movement from
it's inception, but very partlcu-
larry because of the splendid deport-
ment and service rendered by the
local company at Kimberly and
vicinity during the recent forest
fires. 1t is matter of record that
many letters of appreciation of the
work of the Sank Centre Guard have
reached the state military headquart-
ers from people from the vicinity
who were in a position to know what
the Sank Centre company bad ac-
complished.
Last Thursday afternoon about .
o'clock Capt. Parker received teie7
phone message from the state adult
ant generals office asking him to re-
port in st. Paul at the earliest pos
sible moment. Capt. Parker and
LIEUT.. b. b. Caughren departed for
ST. Paul on THE 7 o'clock train and
met seven army officers at the st.
Paul Hotel about IL o'clock that even
inE. They were informed that there
was one Vacancy in the Sixth Regi-
ment--that Of a machine gun unit.
They were told that this unit had been
assigned to Bull, on the Iron Range,
but because of the prevalence OF the
"fu" they could not meet the re-
auirments in the time specified. They
were also told that both st. Paul and
Duluth were after this Machine Gun
unit but because each city was repre-
sented In the Sixth regiment it was
desired to place this unit elsewhere.
The local men We're informed that II
they were certain the necessary men
could be recruited before December
fS to compile the unit they would be
authorized to go ahead and organize.
Upon being satisfied, Mr.. Parker was
given the Federal oath and commits
stoned captain. The physical and
character inspection will take place
between December 10 and FL.

the only machine gun unit in the

The friends of Mrs. Anna Aida
Thomason were not surprised Satur-

be said of her: "She hath done what

Sank Centre Is Organizing a
Machine Gun Unit Of the
Minnesota National Guard

Sixth regiment which is made up of
Is companies located in st. Paul, Du-
Iuth, Moorhead, Hibbing, Virginia,
Grand Rapids, Eveleth, Faribault and
Sank Centre.
The machine gun company unit
must have minimum strength of one
Captain, mounted; 1 First Lieuten-
ant, mounted;2 Second Lieutenants,
mounted; one First Sergeant, mount
ed; one Mess Sergeant; one Supply
Sergeant, mounted; one Stable Serg-
cant, mounted; five Srgeants; six
Corporals; two cooks; two buglers;
one horseshoer; one mechanic; eight
privates, first class; twnta ,-four priv
ates; minimum total, So ,.len and four
officers.
The government completely equips
the men in all articles of clothing ex-
eept underwear, including overcoats,
shoes and socks; every man is
equipped with a rifle; the company
will have four portable machine guns
and six shoulder machine guns, the
mounted officers will also be furnish
ed with saddles, brides, saddle blank
cts and horse covers. The local unit
will be known as Machine Gun Co., 9th
Regt. Mimi. Nat. Guards. 1t will be
the only Machine Gun unit in the en-
tire regiment.
Unlike the Home Guard the COM
missioned officers are appointed by
the state adjutant general, instead OF
being elected. Under the regulations
the second ieutenants must be men
under 80 years of age. Capt. Parker
has made the following recommends
lions for the lieutenants: First, d.
B. Caughren, Second V. G. Wedge and
HI. 7. Austin.
Recruiting was started Monday at
ternoon and at this writing the
minimum number asked for by the
goverflaaent has almost been reached
Here lis a. splendid opportunity fo1
Young men to receive military train
ing without expense to themselves, be-
sides a small compensation mean
while. The Herald understands the
enlistment is for a thre-year period
and the companies are subject to duty
anywhere in the United yates. How
ever present indications are that the
chance of seeing active service is re-
mote, except for the ten day outing
at Lake City each year, which the
state pays the men the wages OF a
soldier in the regular army. All
doubt of the organization of the COM
pany has been passed. The govern
ment wants the young men, and II
there are any in town or country who
desire to become a member of the
local unit there is still time-if they
hurry.
To the Herald one Of the biggest
features in connection with the dis
tinction of having a Machine Gun unit
which will accrue to Sank Centre will
be the erection of an armory at q
! cost of $4,000. The state law pro-
vides for this expenditure in all cities
and towns having National Guaro
units. The state also maintains the
| building after its completion.
Sank Centre will be called upon te
furnish a suitable and centrally 10.
Gated site for this structure, and it is
just possible that they may be asked
for a further slight contribution. The
