Special TO the Herald.
Washington, D. c.. Aug. 11.-Army
officers are greatly interested in the
result OF the practical test of auto
mobiles to be made at the camps Of
instruction this summer. The army
possesses four of these vehicles. three
of which are touring cars, the fourth
being a freight carrier. Army officers
at present have not much faith in the
automobile for military purposes. It
is bound to be useful to some extent
such as for ambulance purposes and
also as a special wagon for signal
corps uses. Generally speaking, how
ever, the uncertainty as to good roads
and the frequent necessity Of going
into comparatively untravelled parts
of the country will leave the main re-
lance still on the trusty army mule.

THREE HUNDRED i:
ISLANDS WERE SOLD
TODAY FOR BENEFIT OF HEIRS
OF HENRY YATEs.-sToRY OF
THE ISLANDS is INTERESTING.


Special to the Herald.
Watertown, \. Y, Aug. 11.-Three
hundred islands in the st. Lawrence
river. varying in size from 30 acres
to small pieces OF land hardly fifty
feet long, were offered for sale at
auction here today. While they will
not be put on the block they will be
knocked down to the highest bidder
after the style of all auction sales. 1t
is expected about $4,000 will be
realized from the sale.
The story of the islands and their
ownership is an interesting one.
They were won by the late Henry
Yates, then of Schenectady, n. Y, in
a lottery for the benefit of the colleges
Of the United States, which was man
aged by DR.. Eliphalet Mott, the first
president of Union College, Archibald
McIntire and Henry Yates. Mr.. Yates
was a notable character in his day.
He became immensely rich as the re-
suit of the lottery. He lived in Sche-
nectady until about 1917, when he
went TO Albany. and lived there until
his death. He was a brother of Gov
ernor Yates and was at one time a
United States senator. The proceeds
from the sale of the islands will be
divided among the heirs to the Yates
estate, among whom is Bishop Sat
terlee of Washington.
