THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER
WAS FLOGGED BY COSSACKS
Corp. Benjamin Sperling of Brook*
lyn, N. Y., 'who was arrested and,
flogged bySRusslan Cossacks In Siberia.
8perllng, whcjaa member of the Thir-j
ty-flrst United, States infantry, with)
Capt. L^lP.-Johua of the Twenty-sev
enth United*. States Infantry, was at'
Iman, 170 miles from Vladivostok, on,
official business when both were ar
rested by Cossacks of General Ro*
zanoff's forces. Both were In uniform,
Captain Johns managed to escape and
reported the incident to the American!
commander at Spasske. American
forces were sent to effect Sperling's!
release and they found die Cossacks
preparing to resist them. Sperling,'
after being flogged, was taken to Kha
bocovsk, headquarters of General
Kalmlkoff. He was later released.
General Graves demanded and received
an apology.
The Potato.
In its native country, on the moun-i
tains of Chile and Peru, writes Jeanj
Henri Fabre, in Field, Forest andj
Farm, the potato in its wild state Is
a poor diminutive tuber about as large!
as a hazelnut Man takes- the worth-j
less wild stock into his garden, plants
it In rich soil, tends it, waters It andj
behold, from year to year the potato
thrives more and more, gaining in size
and in nutritive properties, and finally
becomes a farinaceous tuber as large
your two fists.
