LINCOLN GUARD - AT FULL STRENGTH Half Companies Ready to Move at Instant of Receipt of Orders. NEW COMPANY AT ALLIANCE (From a Staff Correspondent.) Lincoln, June 21.—(Special Tele- gram.)—Half of the guard companies have beén ready to move for twenty- four hours. They are equipped to full strength and the delay appears to worry them considerably, The first orders arriving from Washington Monday morning stated that the guard would be mobilized at “Lincoln or some point to be desig- nated:” Guard officers preferred the government rifle/range at Ashland be- cause of the equipment there already installed, and also because of the dis- tance from the larger towns with their attendant attractions for the soldier boys. Governor Morehead this morning authorized the organization of a\com- pany at Alliance on request of Robert Grayham, a prominent live stockman, and Charles Tully and J. W. Guthrie of the Commercial club, The com- pany will be mustered in as soon as the required sixty-five men sign the muster roll. Some instanees are reported where members of the guard have shown the white feather, but they are very few. One man at Hastings has devefoped cold feet, and another at Kearney, while at Lincoln a woman called up Major Haysel and said she did not bring up her boy to be a soldier. Wymore reports that but forty-five me? and three officers have reported so far, Newman Grove Farmers' Union Have Big Picnic Newman Grove, Neb., June 21.— (Special.)—The Farmers’ union of Newman Grove and vicinity held the annual picnic in Thompson’s grove in the outskirts of this city Friday.

Largely the celebration was a surprise on the venerable couple, al- though a family observation of the event was known to them in advance. Mr, and Mrs. Vieregg were married in 1866 in this county, although both were natives of Schleswig-Holstein, Germany, Mr. Vieregg being a mem- ber of the colony which came to the then unorganized territory of Grand Island in 1858, only one year after the settlement was located. The tnion ,was blessed with twelve children, of whom eight still are living, all of them having families and there being several sisters and brothers of the fifty years’ bride also with families. Mr. and Mrs. Vieregg were charter members of the Liederkranz organi- zation, and the society decorated its hall in gold and provided a very unique surprise ceremony and enter- tainment. The bell used in the decora- tions, and under which the golden- wedding couple sat, was used for the diamond as well as the gold wedding of Mrs. Vieregg’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Spethman, and also for a sister of Mrs. Vieregg and her husband, Mr. and Mrs. Claus Stoltenberg, Over 300 friends and relatives joined in the celebration at the Liederkranz, the program consisting of orchestral and vocal music, dancing and a fine supper.
