A LESSON IN TACTICS. The Sergeant Wanted to Be Sure the Powder Was Dry. A volunteer sergeant, in charge of a squad of recruits, was waiting in front of the Dog and Gun tavern, expecting the arrival of his commanding offi- cer. Getting rather impatient, the worthy “non-com.” resolved to make himself more comfortable. Calling his men together, he told them that he intended to occupy the time in teach- ing them’ “outpost duty.” “You three men,” he said, pointing to a sturdy trio, “will go to one end of the street. Three more of you will guard the side streets and turnings. The captain is supposed to be the en- emy. The Dog and Gun will represent the camp or fort. When you sight the enemy raise an alarm, fall back to- wards the main body, that’s myself. and whatever you do, guard against a possible surprise.” “Where be ye a-going, then, ser- geant?” one of the men ventured to ask. “Inside the fort, you blockhead, to look after the ammunition,” bellowed the worthy instructor.

Efforts to purchase the land needed for the state park at Minneopa have been abandoned, owing to the high price placed upon it by the owner, and the Mankato Commercial club commit- tee will ask Attorney General Young to commence condemnation proceed- ings. Mr. Young has informed the com- mittee that he does not think that the state should acquire the land, as it would be more of a Mankato park than a state park, and he suggests that the city ought to buy it. However, he has consented to hold the matter open for a time in the hope that negotia- tions can be brought to a successful close and the land purchased. It is con- sidered doubtful whether he will un- dertake condemnation proceedings, in view of the stand which he has taken. Fears are expressed that unless the purchase is closed before the next leg- islature meets it will repeal the act providing for the establishment of the park. The citizens are a unit in wanting the state to acquire the land and estab- lish the park, as provided for by the legislative act, by condemnation if it cannot be done by purchase. They feel that the law should be carried out, and one of the most beautiful spots in the state acquired for preservation. quarters of a mile south of Prescott, Wis.

Le Roy, N. ¥, PUSH WORK ON SANATORIUM. State Board of Control Inspects Prog- ress of Job. The state board of control, com- posed of L. A. Rosing, Dr. J. L. Camp. S. W. Leavitt, Dr. Weiser and Dr. Tay- lor, accompanied by M. C. Johnson, architect, and O’Neil & Son, contract- ors, are at the state sanatorium grounds at Walker, pushing the work of the state institution. Work will begin at once. Teams are being hired, workmen engaged to clear up’the grounds and immediate action will be taken toward the erec- tion and construction of the numerous buildings. The erection of the caretaker’s cot- tage and the clearing of a large part of the grounds took place some time ago. and it is a great deal of satisfaction to those who are interested in the: work in connection with the state sanato- rium to know that the work of con- struction of the state institution will commence immediately. There will be in the neighborhood of $100,000 ex- pended in the construction of buildings on the grounds this year. THOMPSON TALKS RIVER WORK. $50,000 to Be Spent in Improvements When the Water Falls. Capt. W. A. Thompson, in charge of improvement work on the upper Mis- sissippi, was in Winona recently, and when asked as to when improvement | work in his district would begin, said it would be just as soon as the water was down to a six-foot stage, and that when above that level the work could not be carried on to advantage. With the water steadily falling, he was of the opinion improvement work woula begin very soon. Capt. Thompson said he expected to expend between $40,000 and $50,000 in his district this summer, but could not say just where the work would be done. Most of it would be between Winona and La Crosse. [Se eS Anoka County First. Anoka county has made its report to the state board of equalization, the first county to report. The real estate in the county this year is returned by the county board of .equalization at $2,501,579. * Two years ago it was left at $2,870,729 by the state board. Con- sequently the state board will have to boost it considerably to bring it up to the figures of two years ago. The per- sonal property -was left by the state board at $562,256 last year and the re- Are all lock | turn this year is $564,666, an increase of a little over $2,000. PRAISES " MINNESOTA Visitor From Canada- Thinks North Star State Is Best in the Section. “Undoubtedly the greatest state in the Northwest,” were the words in which Mr. E. Olson ofyEstervan, Can- ada, described Minnesota when seen in St. Paul. “Booming? I wish you could have seen the crowds bidding at the open- ing of those new railroad towns the other day. At the time of the sale there was nothing in sight but prairie where the future towns were to rise. but even at that land which is to be- come corner lots sold for $50 and was considered a bargain at that price. “In the town of Kermit, Minn., with- in forty-eight hours after the lot had been sold a bank was open and doing business on the spot. A rough build- ing had been already erected, and just as soon as a lot had been purchased skids were put under the structure and it was moved onto the site of its future prosperity. It certainly is a great country for wheat and flax, which are the two principal products raised. “This is the first trip I have made to St. Paul, but yon seem to have a splendid town here, and it fully comes up to my expectations.” aN Tite WINNING STROKE } If more than ordinary skill in playing brings the honors of the game to the winning player, so exceptional merit in a remedy ensures the commendation of the well informed, and as a rea- sonable amount of outdoor life and recreation is conducive to the health and strength, so does a perfect laxative tend to one’s improvement in cases of constipation, biliousness, headaches, etc. It is all important, however, in selecting a laxative, to choose one of known quality and excellence, like the ever pleasant Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co.,a laxative which sweetens and cleanses the system effectually, when a laxative is needed, without any unpleasant after effects, as it acts naturally and gently on the internal organs, simply assisting nature when nature needs assistance, without griping, irritating or debilitating the internal organs in any way, as it contains nothing of an objectionable or injurious nature. As the plants which are combined with the figs in the manufacture of Syrup of Figs are known to physicians to act most beneficially upon the system, the remedy has met with their general approval as a family laxative, a fact well worth considering in making purchases. It is because of the fact tht SYRUP OF FIGS is a remedy of known quality and excellence, and approved by physicians that has led to its use by so many millions of well informed people, who would not use any remedy of uncertain quality or inferior reputation. Every family should have a bottle of the genuine on hand at all times, to use when a laxative remedy is required. Please to remember that the genuine Syrup of Figs is for sale in bottles of one size only, by all reputable druggists, and that full name of the company—California Fig Syrup Co., is plainly printed on the front of every package. Regular price, 50c per bottle. ESTABLISHED 1879. WOODWARD @CO. MANY RURAL ROUTES. Minnesota Has 1,376, Only Exceeded by Eleven States.

George Allen is in jail in Stewartville, charged with assault upon a sixteen- year-old girl. She was standing last evening near the hotel where she is employed, when Allen approached, thrust a handkerchief into her mouth and dragged her back of some out- buildings. Her muffled cries brought help and Allen was captured. He is a married man. It is hoped that a con- viction will be secured, as Alllen has been a_ persistent lawbreaker, this being hic third atttempt in this direc- tion.
