B
OLD GLORY'S TIME TO WAVE
NATIONAL EMBLEM FLOATS
FROM MANY A POLE
St. I*nul Resembles a Fourth of July
With tlie Stars ami Stripes Flout
ing Proudly Kroin Public Build
ings, Bwriaen llousct aud Pri
vate Residences Suggestion
Made by the Globe Approved.
The suggestion of Tho Globe that
residents and merchants of St. Paul
display the national colors from their
homes and places of busintss during
th<- war with Spain, met with a hearty
response yesterday, when, with the
movement but a day old, the Stars
«.iid Stripes floated majestically from
hundreds of flag staffs throughout the
city.
Today, when the national guard as
sembles iv St. Paul, preparatory to the
march to the front, Old Glory will un
tur" its sheltering folds from countless
1 uildings, kindling anew the fires of
patriotism, which made the glorious
Union cf free states a possibility.
To the soldiers preparing to go to the
front, the patriotic display means the
assurance of a patriotic people ready
Xi lay down their lives in a common
raise, and to these but awaiting a
general call to arms, it is an inspiring
demonstration of the sentiment stirring
every American heart, while to the
youth of the city is afforded a lesson
in patriotism.
The favor with which the plan of dis
playing flags was received, was re
flected in the general commendation of
foremost merchants in The Globe of
yesterday, but the more substantial
ardor ;>i" the neople was everywhere
evidenced by the proudly waving star
dotted blue field over the red and
white bars designing the emblem of the
nat i '•-,.
I'l -.'tie street and down another the
star spangled banner waved from
cobbler's shop and merchants' empor
ium and public buildings, assurance to
the pc ipl' prospering under its folds.
Today, the thousands of flags which
will augument yesterday's display, will
testify t.- the loyalty of a community
Bending its youth and valor to succor
an oppressed nation and to avenge a
treacherous act against the United
States.
In the business district the demon
stration was more general and con
spicuous as the Bags run up were iarger
and more attractive than those stream
ing from private residences, but in the
resident portion of the city the patriotic
enthusiasm was no less keen.
From windows, porches, eaves and
piracies waved the glorious colors, and
er.thuse-1 with the popular expression
of American spirit, The heads of
homes hurried to their places of busi
n. ss to see that Old Glory was there
likewise upraised over stores and
counting rooms, the embodiment of a
universal loyalty.
Some of i lie fiags displayed were the
emblem of Cuban independence, while
several business houses attested their
patriotism by arrangements of tn
colored bunting. Over many store en
trances and in windows, adding to the
general expression of fealty, were drap
ed pictures of the battleship Maine and
other war pictures.
With such popularity was the sug
gestion received that its adoption was
also ii; evidence among many cyclists,
who rode through tbe streets with na
tional colors ornamenting their wheels.
rday's canvass of the business
houses found the suggestion being gen
erally adopted and everywhere the as
surance was enthusiastically given out
that wherever flags were unable to be
secured yesterday they would be to
day, to greet the arrival of the national
guards, substantial evidence of the
city's patriotism. Some of the firms
expressed themselves as follows:
Howard, Farwell & Co.— Tbe
Globe's effort toward securing a
popular patriotic demonstration is
worthy of adoption by every citizen of
St. Paul. We will unfurl the old flag
with the others.
E. Albrecht & Co.— Old Glory will
float over our store today and there the
Hag will stay until Spain is vanquished.
A. H. Simon — An excellent idea, and

Hanan Shoe Company — We'll' fly the
flag and long may she wave.

the support of every citizen. All should
unite in the patriotic demonstration
and our display will not be the least.

WERE DRILLED IN SQUADS
EECEUITS OF COMPANY D AT
THE AEMORY
The Headquarters of the St. Paul
Cdmpanles Were Crowded Willi
Friends of the Roys Who Will
Soon Be Starting: for the Front
.—Capt. Met- Says the New Ones
Get Alone -Well.
War's stern call to duty sounded in
the armory early last night, and as the
bugler's shrill notes of "assembly" di^d
away, fine-looking men formed into
squads and prepared for an evening
of hard work. They were recruits and
were as well appearing a set of men
as ever applied at the armory for ad
mittance to the crack company of the
Minnesota state guard.
The armory was in a state of turmoil.
Excitement was at fever heat. After
the building was filled to suffocation
with visitors, crowds surged around the
door applying for admittance, until it
was necessary to place a guard at the
entrance to prevent a crush.
Although it was Company D night
the rooms of the other companies were
crowded with militiamen who wore an
air of intense expectency. Some were
busy strapping up their blankets and
getting ready their equipment for this
morning's march to the fair grounds.
Officers, in groups of four or Aye, de
bated among themselves over the prob
able date of their departure for the
seat of war.
Col. Bobleter could have marched
from the armory last night with a for
midable array of soldier boys, if an
order had been received.
Every one appeared in the best spir
its. The pianos in the company rooms
were all kept going, and the old struc
ture resounded with patriotic songs
and desultory cheers.
Lined around the big drill room were
hundreds of men, women and boys,
who watched the maneuvers of the re
cruits with absorbing interest, and
loudly applauded the beys as they
wheeled around In surprising good
form, considering their short training.
There were seven squads on the pol
ishded floor, commanded as follows: A
squad of nine men in charge of Sergt.
Kahlert, seven men under Corp. Kirch,
eight men under Corp. Dawton, eight
men under Private Downs, ten men
under Corp. Krembs, ten men under
Private Bach. Second Lieut. Tenn
brood was in charge of a squad of six
teen men ln the company rooms up
stairs.
The squads marched and counter
marched. They wheeled and right
wheeled, and went through all of the
foot movements. They were all new
men, but manifested their interest in
the work, and showed an aptness that
pleased their officers.
Aft^r an hour of squad work "as
sembly" was blown and the men form
ed into company formation, four sets
of fours, double rank. Capt. Metz took
command, and as he strode out into
the center of the auditorium he was
greeted by vigorous applause. Lieu is.
Merrill and Tennbrood served in their
respective positions.
Maj. Bean was out to watch the re
cruits of his old company, and ex
pressed his pleasure at the showing
made by the new boys.
"Why," said he, "it looks as if the
company will still be the crack organi- I
zation on the fiield of battle as well as
on the parade grounds at Lake City."
Capt. Metz gave the command,
"Right forward fours right," and the
recruit company started out on its first
company march. They marched around
the hall in almost perfect time, and as
they wheeled to the command of
"Fours right" the hundreds assembled
broke out into generous applause, for
the movement was executed finely.
An hour of hard drilling told upon
both the men and officers, and when
the command to fall out was given a
number of the privates threw them
selves on the hard floor, content to lay
there and discuss the war news rather
than to do their chatting standing up.
Very Jew of the men wore uniforms,
and tho majority of them drilled in
their street cloths. Their appearance
was not so martial as it would have
been had they been attired in the
regulation blue blouse and trousers.
Such military unconventionalities as
the appearance of a white fedora in
lino next to a derby, and a pair of glar
ing striped trousers alongside a pair
of bicycle knickerbockers, did not effect
the enthusiastic reception accorded the
recruits by the assemblage. Each man
seemed to have had a friend or two
in the crowd who gave him the "glad
hand."
Although every one seemed happy,
there was a vein of seriousness be
neath the outward manifestations of
merriment. All appreciated the fact
that they were attending a rehearsal of
a compar.y of men who were going to
what may be death. They were to
face the grim reaper for their country's
sake, to risk their lives to uphold the
honor of Old Glory.
There were no jokes uttered at tha
few breaks made by the recruits during
the drill, no jeers at some badly rat
tled soldier who wheeled to the right
when he should have wheeled to the
left. Even Young America, who was
at the armory ln strong force, had no
criticism to offer, for he sympathized
with the boys who were doing their
best to prepare themselves to do bat
tle with the Dons.
Capt. Metz, after the drill was fin
ished, said to a circle of friends:
"Those boys did nobly tonight. I
was surprised at the unity of their
execution of the commands, and it will
not take long to put them into first
class shape."
The company rooms presented a busy
appearance all last night. On the floors
were stacked the blanket rolls of each
private, and the men were busy clean
ing up their accouterments. Up to a
late hour the armory was crowded with
guardsmen.
SONS OP VETERANS.
Capt. Hennlnger'* Company Drilled
on Sixth Street.
Sixth street, fTom Seventh to Smith ave
nue, was lined with people last night, who
watched the maneuvers of the Sons of Vet
erans' company, which drilled steadily for
two hours.
The Sons of Veterans made a fine show
ing last night, having ninety-five men in
line, in eleven sets of fours. Capt. P. E.
Hennlnger was in command, assisted by
Liouts. Daly and Drake.
The men were put through all the foot
movements, and marched up and down the
asphalt pavement with the stride of old
timers.
The crowd along the street was large, and
the services of a mounted policeman were re
quired to afford the volunteers sufficient
room to drill in.
No new recruits were enlisted by the Sons
of Veterans yesterday, as Capt. Hennlnger was
too busy getting his present company into
shape. Squad drills were held during the
day.
