There and Back

We have been to Minneapolis and
have returned to our favorite stamp
ing ground, none the worse for wear,
Eathough the little things that have
occurred during my stay in the twin
cities, We're of a character to impress
me during my earthly existance, of
the magnitude of the loyalty Of all
American citizens.
On the morning of the 18th, at about
2 a. IN. everything broke loose, noises
of every character and kind, raised
the most fearful din that ever was
turned loose on a sleeping world, echo
upon echo of screeciling whistles and
fire sirenes, brought the sleeping
world to life in the greatest event
that ever occurred in the history of
the world.
AT about $50, we HE'D ourselves
to the business section Of the city to
see the sights, people We're coming
from every direction to join the mass
that were assembling upon every cor
ner and street of the city. About IL
O'clock they We're there in evidence,
one seething mass of humanity, crowd
ing Mther and thither, making life a
a luxury in one of our great cities.
You know how it is, you feel like a
piece of Dashboard, you don't dare
turn square with the wind for fear of
taking a flight.
Now, understand me, this is not a
knock, but Incidentally l have heard
that there was celebration in our
own city, rejoicing at the downfall of
old Kaiser Bill. Unfortunately, I was
not here to enjoy the festivities, which
was very unfortunate on such mo-
mentous occasion, when | hear that
there was some of that antiquated
joy juice dug up that had lain in secret
hiding places for, 10 these many years.
No man can have the true patriotic
feeling without taking a certain
amount of exhileration and the Juice
of the giant cactus fills the require
n1snts and makes him get the proper
hump on himself and patriotism is
lone glittering ray of sunshine.
Believe me, Minneapolis is all there,
nobody has left.

PLACE TOTAL u. S. LOSSES
AT 100000

Washington, d. C. Officials here
estimate that the total casualties of
tha American Expeditionary forces
"a Che war will not exceed 100000, in
tubing the men killed in action, woun-
Ged, died of wounds, disease and
accidents and the missing VINO never
Viii be !. ;e9unted for. Some of those
@ho have been missing probably will
be accounted for when the prisoners
are returned from Germany.
1t was said today that it probably
VIII be several weeks before the re-
cord of casualties can be completed.
1t is regarded as almost certain that
many of the casualties in the recent
heavy fighting by the First and
Second American armies have not
been reported. Lists also must be COM
piled Of unreported American casual
ties in British and French hospitals.
The daily lists for several days have
consisted of approximately LOO
names daily. Secretary Baker has in
that a considerable number of
reported casualties remain to be given
ont but that these will be released as
them.

Nathaniel Ripple had q terrible ex
perience one afternoon when he was
about twelve years old. He opened the
doors Of the buggy house and was
backing the buggy in when the wind
blew both doors shut. He propped
them open with small sticks, but just
as he reached the buggy tongue one
of the sticks fell and the doors came
around far enough to stop the buggy.

be Strengthened out before the day is
over"
Early today the Federal authorities
arrested Jack Thompson, whom they
charged with failing to return his ques-
tionnaire and for his failure to comply
with the draft regulations they stated
he would be inducted into the service
Immediately. For the last six weeks
Thompson has been employed at League
Island. He is married and is twenty
nine years old.
If Thompson had been called away
it would have been damaging to the
star show to he held here Tuesday
night. The Langford-Thompson bout is
one Of the best on the card and a bout
that has created interest. Thompson is
powerful fellow and a dangerous
hitter. 1t simply is n question whether
he can stand up under Langford S
damaging punches.
The show will go on as originally
scheduled, said the three promoters and
with favorable weather, the all-star card
will be staged. Battling Levinsky VS.
Harry Greb. Irish Patsy Cline VS.. Willie
