Deviles Lake, July 7.-Saturday was
another day of the Chautauqua mark
ed for it's magnificent weather. In
fact, since the opening day. with the
exception of one shower. We have had
splendid weather. No better could be
desired for an outing. Saturdays pro-
gram was rather an uneventful one
with the exception of the ball game:
Chautauqua against the Michigan
team. Chautauqua coming off victori-
GUS for the fourth time since the OPEN
ing day Michigan put up a good
game all right and gave the Chau-
tauquans a tussle. but they seem hard
to beat this season. The score was
2 to 4 in favor of Chautauqua. Mon
day the Edmore team. reputed good
one. will try their mettle with Chau-
tauqua, and something interesting is
looked for.
The morning was taken up with ath-
letics, bathing. boating and the class
exercises. with, of course. the Minot
music The afternoon and evening in
the auditorium was contributed to by
the Lincoln quartet. Good entertain
ers, every one of them, who close their
engagement here today. Besides their
good music they liven things up with
their clever vaudeville sketches.
Miss Phoebe Mae Roberts. the read
err. entertained the audience both at
ternoon and evening also and she is
always pleasing.
Mrs. f. G. Fitzgerald of Grand
Forks. who is the guest of Mrs. Frank
Stoltz in Devils Lake, was on the
grounds all day the guest of Mrs.
White. In the evening she consented
to favor the audience in the auditor
ium with vocal solo and was heartily
encored for second selection. Her
voice is sweet mezzo soprano and
both selections were pleasing.
We must not forget the w. c. T. U.
morning meeting in the round table
tent Saturday. The subject. "Is 1t
Necessary for Busy Church Workers
to Join the w. C. T. U. in Prohibi-
ton State,' was Interestingly dis
cussed.
More people are coming in with each
train and this week will be the banner
week of the Chautauqua gathering.
both in point of program and crowds,
it is anticipated.
This hot weather is splendid for the
plunge in the lake and each morning
and evening the beach is lined with
people watching the bathers.
Larimore has always been the best
represented town in the state at the
Chautauqua, but SO far this year has
not sent many. nor will she send her
usual crowd we are informed. Why
We do not know unless they have
lost interest and become enamored
with some of the other resorts.

The water on the grounds is good. but
the hotel is not supplied with enough
nor are there any public drinking
places close in. At night especially
is the greatest annoyance. No ice
water can he obtained for the rooms,

PAUPERs AND CRIMINALS
Hundred and Fifty IN One Family
None Do Honest Work.

Des Moines, Ia, July 9.-From q
family of father and mother and i've
children, the family Of Isaac Gibson
OF this city has increased to $50 per-
sons and Is now the third largest pau
per and criminal family in the world,
according to all known records. The
Jukes of Cincinnati are the largest,
and the Ishmaels the next largest Ac-
cordtng to the records. with one ex-
cepti0n, every adult member of the
Gibson family In this city has either

record.
These facts will likely be presented
to the legislature at the session next
winter in the hope of getting through
some reform legislation along the
line suggested by the late Judge Kline
and endorsed BY the State Bar associa-
tton to prevent the marriage of per-
sons with criminal or pauper records.
Isaac Gibson came from the feudal
district OF Tennessee, and was himself
a feudalist. He came to Des MOines
In the '40s and his descendants have
lived on the city ever since with the
exception of one girl, who has married
a coal teamster who Is q steady work.
man. All the rest of the daughters
and, granddaughters, and most Of the
descendants are girls, have married
paupers and criminals, and the record
is kept straight that none of them
makes living by honest toll. BY actu-
al count the family numbers now 1923,
and there are known to be about TWEEN
ty or twenty-five more whose names
are not at hand. 1t is estimated that
there are about $50 descendants of
the first man and woman of the fam
lily that came here. The family has
been here forty years, and students of
social conditions who are giving the
matter some thought are appalled, at
the number of probable descendants in
another forty years IL all families
multiply as the first.
Iq addition to the records of this
family's case. Col. Drake of the Boys
Industrial school at Eldora, made the
recommendation to the state board Of
control that some action by the legis-
lature be taken to prevent criminals
marrying, and other public men have
also taken up the matter. All these
things will be brought to the attention
Of the legislature next winter in the
hope of getting remedial legislation.

MUST STAY
 WITH SOUTHERN LEAGUE
GUESS WHOs

One of the most laughable things of the year in Southern baseball circles has been the efforts of the Atlanta and Birmingham newspapers to have Judge ". M. Kavanaugh of Little Rock, oust- cd as the executive head of the south Grn League.
 Judge Kavanaugh has been the sal xatton of the Southern League on more than one occasion. and on several memorable occasions this league would have gone to smash with any man in the South except the Arkansas Judge 1902 when the Chattanooga people went To BirmtuEham with the aVoweo inten- ton 5f turning the meeting into gen. uina Irish wake because Montgomery had been given the Chattanoo8a fran chise. The cool judgment fine acumen and skillful diplomacy Of Judge kav- anangh steered the League through that muadle without ripple appear Ing on the surface, the waters under heath being pretty badly shaken
 This league would have gone to the boww0ws when Charlie Frank. General carnes and others organized their. out would have put the old organization out of business speedily if any man less capable than Judge Kavanaugh had not been at the helm.
 The wisdom and judgment he dis played during the outbreak of yellow fever last summer brought the league to glorious finish with colors fly ing, when other organizations In tha South had. thrown up the sponge early in the fight
 Last of all Judge Kavanaugh has had this league put in Class A. and anyone that knows the slightest thing about baseball politics realizes the in- estimable advantages of the move First cnly one man can be drafted from any Southern League club and no longer is there any danger of Mont eomery losing such men as Brouthers. Oidring. starkeil and Mccoy at one wwoop Then again the Southern League clubs can draft players from New York League. New England League. Central League, South Allan tic League, | l. l.

JUDGE MASSEY rs IN
HANDS OF HIS FRIENDS

When approached in his Office on
the subject yesterday afternoon, Judge
w. A. Massey declined to say more
than a word or two in regard to his
candidacy for appointment as United
States Circuit Judge for the District
of Nevada, which will be vacant on
the 30th inst, when the recent resig-
nation of Judge Thomas p Hawley
goes into effect, says the Reno Jour
nal. All .Eadge Massey would say was
that he is receptive candidate, sub
ject to the decision of the President
and the good offices of his Nevada
friends who may have influence with
the powers. = Judge Massey felt that
it would not be in the best of taste,
possibly to consent to an interview on
the subject.

WOULD SHUT OFF INSURANCE
COMPANIES IN NEVADA

CARSON CITY, New, June 9.-In-
surance Commissioner Davis, in dis
cussing the fight now going on in San
Francisco between the insurance com
panies and the polieyholders, said to-
day:
IF he, Commissioner Wolfe. finds
insurance companies resorting to pet
ty and dishonest tactics and refusing
to settle the losses properly, he should
order them to discontinue business in
the state of California, and at once
every state in the union should issue
the same orders through its insur-
ance commissioners.
Concerted action among the state
commissioners will soon settle this
question. Any company debarred from
California by Commissioner Wolfe can
not do business in Nevada. If / can
help it.
