YOUNGEST CAPTAIN IN STATE .leutenant Colonel , Writing In Chicago cage Journal Today , Tells How It Came About That Present Norfolk Railroader Joined the Army , r Front Hnturcliiy'H Iiatly.J Today's Chicago Journal contains a picture of H. C. Matrau of Norfolk IH ho appeared at the ago of sixteen , i year after ho entered the northern irmy In the civil war , and also an In- erostlng little Htory of Mr. Matraii , written by Lieutenant Colonel J. A. WatroiiH , U. S. A. The article IB head- 'd , "Brigade's and Stale's Youngest Captain , " and Is IIH follows : "A letter from mi old olllcor of the ron brigade , In Nebraska , Hays : When you Wisconsin boys go to Fond lu Uic to visit our old commander , ( Jon. Bragg , who has Just returned 'rom China , bo sure and lot mo know n time , so that I can bo with you. ' "That letter presented Impressions 'rom mcmory'H plates pleasant to re- lect iiiion. A sturdy youngster In Michigan had a misunderstanding with a recruiting olllcor In May , 18C1 , mil loft homo for Chicago. Ho was tot qulto 15 , and the recruiting olllcor lecllnod < to enlist him , mid when told iy the boy that ho didn't know his Mislncss the dignified odlcer threat ened to have him arrested. "Twice ho tried to enlist In Chicago. When word came that a few recruits were needed to till up a Belolt com- mny he went to that city and was ac cepted for the state service , the cap- aln tolling him that ho might fall to 10 sworn Into the United States ser vice lat r on. Ho was small for his o , yol ho scorned to go as n flfor or Irummor ; ho wanlod to carry a gun , Ike other man. "Our company had boon mustered n mid wo wore allowed to see the other companies go through the core- uony. When Company G's turn that was the Bololt company came moro than 100 men who had become inter ested In the llltlo chap stood around o see If ho would pass muster. He mil picked out n pair of large shoes nto which ho stuffed Insoles , and high er heels and thicker soles had been added. The high-crowned cap and the > nlnrged shoes lifted the little fellow ip , as ho thought , so ho could squeeze hrough. "I- can see him as ho looked when he started to walk past the mustering of- leer. I can also see Capt. Mclntyro if the regular army , who mustered In > ur regiment , The mlnuto the boy started down the line his eyes wore Ixcd upon him and ho watched him mtll he reached the loft of the com- mny. I can see the captain's smile of approval as the little fellow took his place. Ho had won the day. Ho was nustorc'd Into Unclo's Sam's service 'or three years , or during the war. "Baby of Company G. " "They called him the baby of com pany G. It happened this way : The regiment participated In the Fourth of Inly parade at Madison In 1SGI. As company G passed , a young lady called attention to the boy and said : "Ixiok at that little fellow. He's only a baby ! ' "At Gettysburg company G's baby was a sergeant. Ho had been In the battles of Gainesville , Second Bull's Run , South Mountain , Antletam,0Fred- erlcksburg , Fltz-Hugh Crossing and Chancellorsvlllo. No soldier In the regiment carried a larger knapsack , kept up hotter In a long march or load ed and fired moro rapidly than Ihe baby of company G , or behaved better under lire or In camp. "When the campaign of 1SG1 began ho was his company's first sergeant nnil had got his growth , though still a little fellow. "When the brigade was behind for tifications at the left of Petersburg , the fall of 1SG1 , a cluster of the boys who had left homo as privates were promoted. In the package of commis sions that came to headquarters one ovelilng was ono making our little friend first lieutenant of Co. G. He was placed In command of the com pany and commanded H with great distinction In several battles. "Three months later ho was made a captain , being then a little past IS years of ago. and In Gen. Grant's clos ing campaign about Richmond and Petersburg ho was In Command mosl of the time of two companies and parl of the time of three. Now a Railroad Man. "So much for the baby of Co. G as a soldier so much about Capt. Henrj C. Matrnu , the youngest captain ii any of the Wisconsin regiments. "Capt , Matrau has been a rallroai man ever since the war. For twentj years he has been the Northwestern's representative at Norfolk , Neb. ; has served several terms as mayor , as a member of the school board , and Is ai honored member of the Nebraska Com mandery of the Loyal Legion.

VALIDITY NOW DOUBLY SURE Telegram From State House Orders Extra Editions of All Papers Print ing the Constitutional Amendment , Though It Was Legal Before. [ From Monday's Dally. 1 The constitutional amendment which vlll be placed before the voters of Nebraska at the coming election will > e published In at least ono nowspa- ier In each county of the state where a newspaper Is published , for moro han three full calendar months pro- eding the election , and will In every vay comply with the provisions of the onstltutlon of the state regarding the mblicatlon of proposed constitutional amendments for three months prior o election. The legality was made doubly sure > y the Issue Saturday of extra edl- Ions of every weekly newspaper In ho state which Is to print the amend ment. The extra editions were ordered by a telegram from the state house , ecelved after noon , as follows : "Publish special edition of this veek's paper or supplement contain- ng constitutional amendment and Is sue it not later than today or Sunday , o Insure validity of publication. Wire answer. " Secretary of State Galnsha sent copy to most of the newspapers in ho < state which are to publish the amendment , early In the week and nest of the first publications were executed Thursday or Friday. But even If none of the first publications should not como Until August 10 it is said on reliable authority that the nibllcation would bo legal , because the constitution provides that the amendment shall be published once each week for three months preceding election , and It Is a well established fact that Friday , August 10 , Is In the week beginning August C , and that : hereforc the publication , beginning August 10 , would be legal. State Secretary Galusha says that there would have been no violation of the constitution without the Issuance of extra editions August 4 , but this publication makes the legality doubly sure and those who would cast Insln- nations upon that ofllclal are thus de prived of campaign mud.

DEFEATED PIERCE PLAYERS IN TOURNAMENT YESTERDAY. NOT A SINGLE SET WAS LOST Racquet Wielding Has Been Revived , in Norfolk This Season , and Good Sport Is Being Had Here Every Evening Some of the Players. [ From Thursday's Pally. ] The isortolk tennis players , who went to Plerco yeslorday , had things ibout their own way from start to flu sh. They did not allow the Plerco enthusiasts one set In the whole se ries. The Plerco players are prett > swift but they showed lack of prac tice , while the Norfolk boys played a leady , steady game. Pusowalk was lu line form and ilayeil one of the best games he was ever kjiowu to. nines played a good game , only allowing his opponent one lolnt In live straight games that were ilayed in one set. The line loam work of Beels and Ersklne was one of their vlnnlng points. The Plerco boys put ip a very good game , especially Pohl- man , but did not seem to have the endurance that their opponents had. The scores were as follows : Pase- walk beat Pohlmun , G-2 , 0-1. Beels mil Ersklne heal Nelson and Touner 0-4 , C-0. nines beat Jeual , 0-1 , G-0. Pasewulk beat Oelko , 0-1 , 0-2. Beels and Ersklne beat Tonuer and Pohl- nan , C-2 , G-l. In the sum total , Norfolk's racquet vlelders won sixty games while their opponents won only fourteen , which vere scattered. The Pierce boys treated the Nor- 'oik players royally and showed them . ne of the best times possible. It has been arranged that the Pierce players will come to Norfolk lu the icar future for a return series. TJie overwhelming victory of the Norfolk players yesterday only In a neasure makes up for the terrific de- eat which was at one time adminis- ered by Pierce to Norfolk on the football gridiron. It was one of the Irsl games that was ever played by u Norfolk high school football team. They went to Pierce , as confident of x victory as were the tennis men yes- erday. W. G. Hlrons , now county clerk , was then superintendent of the Merce schools , and the way he had rained his husky students to advance he pigskin was a caution. The score vas 50 to 0 In favor of Pierce. Tennis Being Revived Here. Tennis has been revived in Norfolk his summer more than for several seasons past , and a mighty good arti cle has been developed. Lovers of the game get splendid fun out of bouncing he balls back and forth over the net , ind the sport promises to Increase In aver during the next year or so , rath er than wane. Those who are playing at the game lo it not only for the sport that there s In it , but for the physical training that it gives , as well. They claim that an hour of tennis each day or so through the summer , serves to keep i man young all his life , and to reduce velght. Councilman J. S. Mathewson , for Instance , weighs about 220 pounds throughout the winter , but up to date this summer , by means of tennis , he ms taken off thirteen pounds. Among those now playing , the old est at the game are Wyim Rainbolt , Frank Beels , Leo Pasewalk and Storrs Mathewson. For fifteen years they lave been sending the white rubber spheres in and out among the white 'Chalk lines , until their skill has be come a fine art. Beels has always been one of the steadiest players In town , though he has had little practice this year. Rainbolt , who played all .hrough his Audover and Harvard col- ege career , and who has won several northern Nebraska championship mod- ils , has had little practice during the ; iaet two years but can , when he Is n form , still defend his title to the championship of this part of the state. Pasewalk , who Is perhaps the most ardent devotee of the game now , al ways , plays a heady game and fights for the last point , making It a tre mentions task to boat him. It is ques tion whether he can be beaten by anyone In Norfolk today. Storrs Mathewson plays one of the most remarkable games of tennis , con sidering his welglit , that has ever been seen in Norfolk. Desnllo the faet that he Is handicapped In a game with lighter plajers , he is able to move anywhere about the court with won derful nglllty and his game is so steady and so sure that ho always holds his own , and sometimes more , in a same with any of the present con testants. A new figure on the courts this year Is Rev. John Hinds , pastor of the Second end Congregational church , who has just graduated from the Yale semi nary. Ho played tennis at Yale and ho Is still playing in Norfolk. Though not n spectacular game at all , his play Is absolutely sure and he never loses a point until it has gone back and forth a number of times. His con sistency and even play was shown nt Pierce yesterday by the fact thai in five straight games ho lost but one single point a remarkable fact when It is considered that at least twenty points were required for those five games. Among the younger generation of players , Sam Ersklne Is by far the best of the bunch and he Is playing such a remarkable game that it Is a toss up between him and any of the older players now. He has beaten Beels , Hinds , Pasewalk and Mathowsou showing that he is just as swift aa those who have played a dozen years longer. Some of the present players have participated In various tournaments. Pasowalk has played at Sioux City and Omaha , Haiiibolt played at Sioux City and Ersklne has been planning to play at Omaha this year. It Is not at all Impossible that next year some of the players who have not had on rubber-soled shoes for sev eral seasons , will return to the game. Among the experts who used to set the pace In Norfolk were Sol G. May er , Dr. P. H. Salter , Burl Mnpos , M. C. Hnzon , J. C. Stltt , C. H. Reynolds , A. J. Dtirland , Dr. C. S. Parker , Jack Koenlgstoln , E. H. Tracy , Judge J. B. Barnes. BONESTEEL POLICEMAN WHO KILLED "KID" ENGLISH. DURING THE RESERVATION RUSH At the Time of the Killing , a Special Train Was Sent From Norfolk Car rying a Surgeon Employed by the Gamblers , Who Raised $1,000. J. J. Ault , the policeman at Bone- stuel during the days of the rush who shot and killed "Kid" English of Beau mont , Texas , has been pardoned by Governor Elrod of' South Dakota and released from the penitentiary at Sioux Falls , where he was serving a two-year sentence. News of the par don Is published this week by the Fairfax Advertiser. It will be remembered that at the time of the killing the gamblers at Bonesteel raised a purse of $1,000 with which to employ a surgeon to try to save the life of English and to prose cute Ault. A special train was made up at Norfolk at midnight , carrying Dr. P. H. Salter to the scene of the shooting , but before the special could irrlve English was dead. A mob was formed to lynch Ault at the time of the shooting , but after the rush had ended and things had quieted down It was believed that Yult would go free inasmuch as Eug- Ish had belonged to the gang who cre ated such lawlessness at Bonesteel. Jkri ills sentence of two years in the pen- tentlary , therefore , was somewhat of i surprise. Concerning the pardon , the Fairfax Advertiser says : Governor Elrod yesterday granted a mrdon to A. J. Ault who was sen- .enced from -Gregory county July 17 , 1905 , for two years in the penitentiary on charge of manslaughter. Ault was ictlng as an olllcer at Bouesteel at the time of the drawing for Gregory county claims , and In handling the crowd which was rough was too free with his revolver , killing one of the men he was attempting to arrest. A neb formed at thei time threatening .o lynch Ault , and he was got out of the place and into jail at Fairfax with dllllculty , and at the trial received the two year sentence. Warden Parmley reports that Ault has been one of the trusties at the penitentiary , and the lardon application is signed by ten of : he jurors who sat In the case , and by a large number of citizens of Greg ory county. The sentence allowed ac tion by the governor without applica tion to the pardon board , and his iction was taken on the petition , and the prison report of Ault. O. R. MEREDITH , D.O OSTEOPATH.
