The Ladies Aid and Missionary

visitors ought surely consider
what plans their friends may have

A band of fifty indians from the
Shoshone reservation is being decked
out for the Frontier Celebration at
Cheyenne August 20 to 23. The in
dians will be there with their full ma
tive regalia and will take part in the
races besides giving daily war dances.
The Shoshones have not been employed
at the Cheyenne celebration for some
years and will be an added attraction
this year, especially to the easterners
who attend in great numbers and who
often have never seen a red skin in
native garb.

The Speed Craze

The people who had the mania for
speed were probably, at the least,
those who had nothing special to do
when they arrived at their destination
and were a very small minority on
that particular craft.
A twenty-hour train is more desir-
able to great many people than the
eighteen. hour train. And | notice
this, tina: the twenty-four hour train
carries more passengers and of quite
as good quality as the eighteen hour
flyer.
There is one particular make of
acknowledgements mind the name
that is bought by the man who intends
to ru. it. Before he buys this machine
he consults with his family. Every
body in the household is interested.
One-third of the automobiles used in
America are of this particular make.

hundred automobile accidents compiled

contrary, however, there was not a

The point is that the men who buy
this automobile prize safety more than
speed. They are not joy riders. They

FEDERALS TO
QUIT CHICAGO?

New York, Dec. 1.-The Federal
league promoters have decided to
abandon Chicago and are planning to
cording to a rumor started here today.
James Gilmore. who backed the Chi
cago Feds last year, has come to the
conclusion that 1t would be a waste
of good money to compete with the
White Sox and Cubs for patronage next
year, continues the story.
The promoters, 1t seems, gradually
the major leagues and are scheming
to make Roadway against the class A.
A. American association.
Milwaukee, in their opinion, can sup
port two teams with non-confiicting
schedules, and for that reason the
league Is ready to transfer the Chi
cago franchise to Milwaukee, where
the American association had a PEN
nant winner this year.
Vice President E. C. Racey of the
Chicago Federal league club said last
night the story from New York was
news to him. He asserted that Presi-
dent Gilmore had been placed In charge
of affairs, and did not know what he
had done in the last week. Further
more, Mr. Racey said he has not taken
an important part in the business tram
sactions of the club since the season
closed. Mr.. Gilmore was in Pittsburg
yesterday.
