lei Reno, o. T., Aug. 1.-THE drawing
OF winning numbers in the United
terday, 10000 envelopes having been
taken from the wheels, $500 for each
land district The crowd about the
platform upon which the drawing took
place was much smaller than on pre-
vious days. Beginning Aug. 6, 1926
names in each district will be called
daily for 60 days for the filing Of
homestead entries.
The estimate Is made by a govern
ment official that in each land district,
1000 of the $500 numbers will not be
taken in the GO days, because of home
steaders who will be disqualified, or
who will leave the country, believing
their claims to be worthless. This
will leave only $500 persons who will
make entry in. their respective dis
tricts.
Two thousand claims will be left
for the wagon emigrants and others
who have been in the country for
months and failed to draw a number.
At the end of 60 days, these persons
can go Immediately to their land Of
fee and file, or If they settle on a
homestead in advance of any other
person, they can remain thereon three
months before filing their entry

Wednesday, night by w. F. Wright,

DR. Scalpel has recently advanced the
argument that what people need in hot
weather are hot drinks and hot baths.
The doctor with some degree of consist.
ency argues TINT while cold drinks and
cold baths may cool the immediate
parts of the body affected for the In.
stant, when the heat of the suns rays
begins to operate II will have much
greater effect on the body or parts OF 1T
cooled. The doctor Is an
opponent of fans for the same reason.
He considers that hot bath will raise
the temperature of the body to higher
degree than that of the mir and when
1t comes in contact with the air the
difference in temperature will be both
refreshing and beneficial. The doctor
argues that it is the people who have
been artifcially cooled who suffer sun
stroke by coming suddenly into an ex-
treme temperature to which they are

MILTON RELICS AT HARVARD
Signature III Ru Autograph Album

and the Poets Copy of "Pindnr."
The Harvard library numbers among
its treasures an autograph of Milton
and copy of "Pindar" annotated In
Milton's own handwriting, with mar
ginal notes in Greek and Latin. Both
of these rarities We're bequeathed to
the university by Charles Sumner.
The ".Pindar" Is dated 1920 and was
doubtless used by Milton during his
stay at Cambridge university. At the
end he has added an alphabetical index
In manuscript, occupying two closely
written pages of all the authors cited
In his notes, with references to the
pages in which their names occur.
Milton's autograph is found in the
pages of IN autograph album or visit
ors' book kept according to n custom
common in the sixteenth century, by n
Ncapoltan nobleman, Camillus Car
doyn by name, who resided in Geneva
from lG0S to 1910, where Milton, ap-
parcntly, visited him. Another auto
graph in this same album among the
hundreds which it contains is that of
Thomas Wentworth the unfortunate
Earl Of Stafford. Milton's signature is
dated Jan. 10, 1850, and is appended
to Latin motto-"Travel changes ones $
sky, but not ones mind" it may be
freely rendered and quotation from
his own "Comus:"
''lf Vcrtue feeble were,
Heaven itselfe would stoope to her.
The most notable Milton manuscript
known to exist Is little book now
owned by Trinity college, Cambridge,
England, which contains the poets
copies of his so called minor poems, in
cluding "L'Allegro" ard 'Il Pensero-
So" In this country, however 1t is
said that the only original memorials
Of the great author of Paradise Lost
are to be found in these two time stain
ed volumes in the possession Of the
