HINES 18 PATRIOTIC At Hines Saturday evening, a patriotic meeting followed by a pie wsocial ‘was held. Sergeant Mc De Henry of the Canadian recruiting miesion spoke ‘and boosted for the thrift stamps and Red Cross. F. B. Lamsgon of Bemidji also spoke, as did W. B. Stewart. Mr. Lamson’s topic was “Lincoln,” and Mr. Stewart spoke on “Washington,” practical ap- . plication being made to America in the war. i $ CLASS TO MEET ° “The ‘men’s surgical dressing class of the O.

But he never seemed to me to change a hair afterward. As I fmagine his life, from what I have seen and keard of {t, he must have been in every sea, and yet almost never on land,' He must have known:in a formal way, - more officers in our service than any man ‘living knows. 'He told me once, with a grave smile, that no man in the world lived ‘so methodical a life as he. “You know the boys say I am the Iron Mask, and you know how busy he was.” . He said it did not do: for anyone to try to read all the time, more than to do anything else all the time; but that he read just five hours a day. “Then,” he said, “I keep up my note- books, writing in them at such and such hours from what I haye been” reading; and I include in them my serapbooks.” | These were very curious indeed. ' He had six or eight, of differ- ent subjects. .There was one of his- tory, one of natural sclence, one which he called “Odds and Ends.” But they were not merely books of extracts from newspapers. They had bits of plants and ribbons, shells tied on, and carved scraps of bone and wood, which ! my own Acquaint; Nolan began, six or e erything In the . shi] me.

But none of the officers did;. |- and just as tl;o l?pulpum sending forward to ask if any-of the people could, ‘Nolan ‘stepped’dut and ssid: ahould be glad to interpret, 1t the cap- | tain wished, as he understood the lan- guage. The captain thanked him, fit- ted out another boat with him, and In this boat it-was my luck to g : When we got .there, it was such s scene as you seldom see, and never want to. Nastiness beyond wccount, and chaos run loose in the midst of the nastiness. There were not a ‘great many of the negroes; but by way of making what there were understand that they were free,"Vaughan had had off, and, for convenience' sake, putting them upon the rascals of | sckooner's crew. 'The negroes were, most of them, out of ‘the hold, and There Appeared Nolan In His Shirt % Sleeves. he had-taught the men to cut for him, and they were benutifully illustrated. He drew admirably.. He had some of .the funniest drawings there, and some the most pathetic, that I have ever en fn my life. I wonder who will nave Nolan’s scrapbooks. Well, he said his reading and: his notes were his profession, and that they took flve "hours and ¢wo hours respectively of each day. “Then,” said he, “every man should have a di- 7:30 o’'clock. Dr. A, V. Garlock will have charge of the class. AIll mem- bers are urged to be there. PREACH TO INDIANS Rev. George Backhurst, pastor of the Episcopalian church, will go to Redby today where he will preach in the Indian church. Tomorrow he will hold two services at Red Lake and one at Redby in the evening. He will return to Bemidji Wednesday and hold Lenten sgervices here in St. Bartholomew’s. church, Thursday and Friday, Rev. Backhurst will preach ‘in ‘Mentor. BOARD MEETS TONIGHT: There will be a meeting of the school board this evening at 8 o’clock version as well as a professfon. My- natural history is my diversion.” That took two hours a day more. The men used to bring him birds and fish, but on a-long cruise heé had to satisfy him- self with centipedes and cockroaches and such small game, He was the only naturalist T ever met who knew any- thing about the habits of the house fly and the mosquito. ‘All those- people can tell you whether-they are Lepi- doptera or Steptopotera; but as for telling how you can get rid of them, or how they get away from you when you strike them, why, Linnaeus knew 8 little of that as John Foy, the idiot, id. These nine hours made Nolan’s regular daily “occupation.” The rest of the time he talked or walked. Till he grew very old, he went aloft a great at the office of Dr. J. T. Tuomy.

If any other man was ill, he was the kind- est nurse in the world; and he knew more than half the surgeons do.

G et . As we canee on deck, Vaughan | looked down from & hogshead, on which he had mounted in desperation, and sald: =~ i 4 5 “For_God’s love, is there anybody who' can make these wretches undet- stand something? .The men gave them rum, and that did not quiet ‘them. 1 knocked' that big fellow down' twice, dnd that did not soothé him. AHd then 1:talkéd Choctaw to all of them to- gether; and T'll be hanged if they un- derstood that as well as.they under stood the English.” | 1 ; Nolap said' he could speak Por: tuguese, and one or two fine-looking Kroomen were dragged out, who, a8 it had been found already, had worked for the Portuguese on'the cv'msg at Fernando Po. > R ane “Tell them they are free,” sald Vaughan; “and tell ‘them that these rascals are to be hanged’ as soon as we can get ropé enough.” 8 Nolan explained it in such’ Portu- guese as the Kroomen could“ under- stand, and they in turn to such of the negroes as could ‘understand -tnem. Then there was such a yell of delight, clinching of fists, leaping and dancing, kissing of Nolan’s feet, and a general rush made to the hogshead by way of spontaneous worship of 'Vaughan as “the deus ex machina of the occasion. “pell them,” saild Vaughan, well pleased, “that I will take them all to Cape Palmas.” This did not answer so well. Cape Palmas was pracilcally as far from the homes of most of them as New Or- léans or Rio Janeiro was; that is, they would be eternally .separated from home there. * And their interpreters, as we could understand, instantly - said, “Ah, non Palmas,” and began to pro- pose infinite other expedients In most voluble language. Vaughan was rath- er disappointed "at this result of his liberality, and asked Nolan eagerly what they said, The ‘drops stood on poor Nolan’s white forehead 'as he hushed the men down, and sald: “He says, ‘Not Palmas’ He says, “Take us home, take us to our coun- try, take us to our own house, take us to our own pickaninnies and our own women.! He says he has an old father and mother, who will die, if they do not see him.
