little army of occupation sent here
to establish the authority of the Unit
ed States and protect her pioneer civ
ilians, not less heroic than those who
wore the uniform of the United
States army.
1.-The last man to take command
OF this Fort as a military authority
was Sergeant Ernst Rackovicz, and
his command consisted of a single
private. When the troops were or
dered from Fort Logan in the fau
of 1880 to establish Fort Maginnis.
Sergeant Rackovicz was left in
charge of the Government property
He was one of the crack shots of the
army, and had won laurels for his
regiment at the Creedmore and st.
Paul Rifle matches.
I'm times of peace mediocrity may
rule; men of questionable standing
or loyalty may be elected to high Of
flee; the spirit of discomfort may pre-
vail; disloyalty may be expressed;
foolhardy experiments in legislation
and in government may be the order
of the day, but the moment our ma
TONS honor or safety is menaced
from within or without. The sober
common sense of our people may be
relied upon to drive from office the
incompetent and disloyal, and to
place the destiny of the nation in
the hands of one hundred per cent
Americans, and thus it will ever be.
1.-THE story of our army from Val
ley Forge to Chateau Thierry will
never be lost to our people, but the
inspiration of their achievements and
sacrifices will be a living red blood
ed. dominating, controlling, undying
influence on the character of the
people of this Republic.

Applications for appointment to the supernumerary force were received from Ernest P. Bloomquist of 7s Dwight street and Michael F. Ha- Der of 211 High street.
 The board voted to return the rec | ommendation voted at the last meet ing that Buick chassis be bought for the new police patrol, with a request for an additional appropriation from the council if it desires a White chassis. The recommendation of the board to buy the Buick chassis was made at the last meeting of the city council, and it was turned down in favor of White chassis by the coun- cil which appropriated $500 for the new patrol, instead of the s2S00 ask cd to enable the department to pur- chase a White. The board felt that if a White is to be purchased the council should appropriate the addi- tional money required.
 It was voted to buy an Indian mo- torcycle from Charles Hatfield at a cost of sS65, with an allowance of s10O for the machine now in use by the department.

 PatrOlman ROuSkie'S Case

Mayor Paonessas letter to tn
 board of police commissioners on tn
 case Of Thomas Rouskie, patrolman
 who was fined $50 at the last meetin,
 of the board, asking the board to re
 open the case ill the grounds that thu penalty imposed was not sufficient fol
 the offense committed, was considered
 at the meeting of the commissioner!
 last night After discussion of the letter and of the evidence in the case i it was voted to send letter to the | mayor, telling him that unless he oI ! somebody had some new evidence in i the case that has not come to the at | tention of the commissioners, the board felt that no other action than i has already been taken would be jus tlfied by the evidence already consid- cred.
 Commissioner Thomas F. Jackson said the mayors letter seemed to inti-
 mate that the board had passed light
 ly over the case, which he said was
 not the case, as the discipline board
 lad spent more time Investigating the
 Rouskie case than any other case it
 has handled. He said that all the
 evidence that the committee could gather on the affair was carefully con- s!dered, and felt that the penalty im- posed was just and sufficient, He add ed that Rouskie told the board straightforward story of the affair, which was logical in every detail and corroborated by the witnesses.
 Commissioner Parker said that when he made the motion to impose penalty of $50 on Rouskie for his conduct, he made it with the intention of punishing the policeman for plac- ing the couple under arrest and then letting them go again. He said that he felt at that time this was the only thing that the board could find the policeman guilty of, and that the DO. liceman should have reported the af- fair to the chief when he came off duty in the morning. On the other charges made by the complainant in tho case, Parker said that the board had three witnesses that he has been personally acquainted with for many years, against that of a man whom he has never seen before and who has 1 only been In the city short time. He | said that if there is no new evidence | to be presented he did not feel that anything could be gained by reopen Ing the case.
 Commissioner Lange expressed his i implicit confidence in the discipline and said that he felt that | the ends of justice were met by the penalty imposed. He said that he could readily understand the mayors position in the matter. rumors and stories being brought to him from every source. and suggested that a re- port of the evidence on which the dis cipline committee acted be embodied in the letter to the mayor.
 Chairman David l.. Dunn said that | as far as he is aware there is no new evidence in the case to be heard, but If any should come to light the case would be reopened immediately. He | could see nothing to be gained re- opening 1t at this time. He said that | he had no dosbt of the mayors good

out. O,Brien hit drive TO third, which

In the fourth and the Panther lead was
cut to one run. Socket led off with q
single and White hit q triple iust In
side the right field foul line. Brindley,s
infieid out allowed white to score. The
next two men went out in order.
In the fifth the Howard tossers took
the lead. Shelton was walked by Ora
ham and Bill Adams was ordered to
the mound for the Painters. He forgot
the man on first, evidently, and began q
lengthy and casual wind-up,t during
which Shelton headed for the keystone.
An attempt by O.Brien to signal the
theft Of the bag stopped Adams In his
wind-up and Umpire swacina called q
bail on the batter. or ruled otherwise q
baik. However. Adams was still I'M
aware Of the presence OF runner on
the bags, apparently, and his next de-
liberate wind-up allowed Shelton to
steal third. Hyde was walked and went
