Fighting THE HEAT NOW
At HISTORIC GETTYSBURG

tents to recover. The remarkable
thing thus far has been the small
number Of deaths. Only five have
been reported to date and it is point
ed out that this is far below the aver
age. With more than 10000 men in
camp, all over 6S years old, the death
rate according to the law OF average
should have been much higher. How
ever, surgeons In charge fear that as
the camp draws to close the hgures
will be increased. 1t is because Of
this that orders have been issued that
the saloons in Gettysburg be closed at
10:30 nightly. 1t is feared that the
spirit OF conviviality and comradship
would cause some old soldiers to In
dulge too freely and thus injure their
health. Commissioners have asked
Governor Tener to have drinking
places closed while the camp is on.
but he declared he did not have
power to do this. Then the burgers
Of Gettysburg were appealed to, to
have the doors locked at 10:30.
One individual who has made pro-
nounced hit here Is Governor James
Cox of Ohio. When he found that
many Buckeye veterans could not be
cared for as originally planned he
hunted up a farmer who leased field
on which he grows oats near the res
ervation. Cox dangled $500 in front
of the farmers eyes and secured the
ground for that sum for three days.
Then in his shirt sleeves with hat on
the side Of his head Cox supervised
the erection Of tents and in an hour
had camp ready for his two hun
dred men.
Many Of them fearful of the scorch-
ing heat and others thoroughly salts
fed with having seen their old COM
rades, the veterans are leaving tie en-
Icampment grounds by the thousands
this afternoon. Still others are anx-
ious to get away before the rush
starts at the end Of the reunion. Twen,
ty-four hundred men left today on
1.-THE Reading railroad, the Pennsyl
vania carried out 2,200 veterans to
southern and eastern points, while
many went west. 1t Is estimated that
fully 10000 will leave tonight. Al
though there was repetition today OF
previous high records in temperature
and humidity the rate OF prostrations
among the old soldiers was consider
ably diminished and up to this after
noon only two additional deaths were
recorded. The sudden death Of Landis

to seven. Travers dropped dead In

washington. died at the state depart
ment hospital early today.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Servicel
WASHINGTON. July with de-
tails Of the system alleged to have
been used by the National Association
of Manufacturers in breaking strikes
before him, Senator Hughes of New
Jersey, one of the few senators hold
ing {. union card, was today preparing
to urge thorough investigation into
this phase OF the workings of the N.
A. M. being revealed by Col. M. M.
Mulhall.
According to Mulhall the association
in New Jersey favors a complete
probe Of labor matters. Mulhall was
ordered from place to place by the
N. A. M. to break strikes. Methods
were usually about the same In every
instance: bribing leaders, establish
ment Of secret sources Of information
through strikers whom he was able
to influence and the hiring Of agita-
tors to break up meetings of strikers.
Mulhall declared in letter that the
Danbury hatters strike was one OF
the hardest propositions he had ever
had to deal with. The Danbury strike
was broken. Mulhall said he went
! to Danbury directly from Portsmouth.
Ohio, where he broke strike Of 5000
shoe workers. This was In April, 1909.
Usual methods were employed
there The strike had been on for
eleven weeks when Mulhall arrived,
having been called by the knights Of
Labor. Mulhall said he convinced the
leaders that the American Federation
of Labor was opposed to the strike,
the Knights not being affiliated with
the larger body. The usual proceed
ure of getting men among the strikers
on his side was followed and Mulhall
named those having accepted money.
One workman did not come over to
Mulhall, as soon as the others, accord
ing to his report but was finally given
$50 cash and promised money order
for $3.50. Mulhall said he told him
! he was the only man who could call
off the strike, adding that he would
use the money to aid families in
want from the strike. Mulhall said
he met Bannon who explained to him
that Selby interests defeated him for
denomination. Mulhall said that after
a conference with Bannon he saw
Selby. He said Selby assured him
they would do all they could to aid
in the return OF Bannon next election.
This was after Mulhall said he had
explained to them that as member
of the judiciary committee Bannon
had been a valuable member, was
close to leaders and always voted
against injunction and labor meas
ures. He said Selby had not known
this.
Another strike broken by Mulhall,
| according to his statements was the
printers strike In Philadelphia in
1907. This same year he went to st.
Louis and broke the strike Of $4,000
shoe workers.
The N. A. NJ, furnished the money
for bribing strikers who were used in
the same way Mulhall had found ad-
vantageous in other strikes, he al
]leges In June 1907 Mulhall went to
Cleveland and investigated the ma
/ chinists' strike there. Later he return

Who's Who and
What's What

An Englishman visiting this
country recently commented on
the advanced development OF
our advertising. He said that
one might get a liberal educa-
tion in remarkably short
space of time by an intimate
study of the advertising in
first-class newspapers.
That may have been express
ing 1t rather strongly perhaps
as a result of his enthusiasm
but 1t must be appas,nt to
every thoughtful reader that
newspaper advertising as 1t is
conducted nowadays possesses
an unusual educational value.
We are quite sure that our
cousin from over the sea might
come here a total stranger and.
by diligent attention to the ad-
vertis'ng appearing daily in this
and other good newspapers,
soon be very well informed as
to the customs and the fash
ions, where to go for his shop
ping and his recreation.
Who's who and what's what
have a persistent manner of
finding their way into the daily
newspapers, SO that he who
reads may profit.

Bow Shows Grit.

Central City, KY, Oct. 1.-Young
Raymond Miller, IA, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Lucian Miller, of Central City,
accompanied by his father. went to
Greensboro recently for an operation
of the nose. 1t was explained the
fact that there was more or less
danger attached to the operation,
as there had been cases where pa
tients undergoing it had bled to
death. The boy insisted on taking
the chance, but refused to be put un-
der the influence of other than a
local anesthetic. He stood the opera
ton we'll, and a little later the faith
err, accompanied by a young man OF
Central City who was devoted to
young Miller, was admitted to sec
the latter. The young man no soon
er caught a glimpse of Raymond ly-
ing on the bed with evidences OF
the suffering he had undergone than
he fell fainting. The instant Ray
mond saw the plight of his friend he
bounded out of bed away from his
nurse and, while he held cotton to
his bleeding nose, placed his own pill
low under the head of his swooning
friend Turning to his father, he
said: "Now, father, get a glass OF
ice water for him and he will soon
be all right" Just then Raymond was
hurried to his bed by his attendant
and was trying to convince the boy
that he was the patient and not the
nurse. Raymond is improving every
day and will soon be strong.

CAREFUL SURVEY
Of TOBACCO CROP
Has Been Made BY J. M.
Vaughn, a Buyer.
At Least Fifty Per Cent. Of A Full
Crop---lmprovement in
Quality.
rhe Greensboro Messenger saws:

The Greensboro Messenger says
After a careful survey of the to-
bacco situation in the five counties
making up what is known as the
Green River district, j. NJ. Vaughan
expressed the opinion on Monday
that the district would figure out
about 3O,OOO,00O pounds of tobacco.
The crop for last year ran to AZ
100000, but this was considered
about 100000 pounds over the nor
NAL crop, which should run about
IS, OO0, 900 pounds. Certain portions
of Daviess county have practically
no tobacco. but since the rains II
was estimated by Mr.. Vaughan that
at least fifty per cent of the crop
would be made. The condition at this
time are unusually good, and the
quality far above the expectations
five weeks back.
While there should be no great
expectations of a much larger price
being offered for the new crop, MIR
Vaughan thinks that because of the
extra quality, as evidenced by the
crops which he inspected, the present
crop should start off at good fig
ure, somewhat in advance of recent
crops. The crop now being cut, while
lacking some in color, is more than
made up for in body and substance
There is the most remarkable come
out" in the new crop that has eveI
been experienced in the history Of
tobacco growing in Daviess county
Instancing crop on a farm neal
Stanley, Mr.. Vaughan repeated the
experience of a grower who tod hin
that he was never so disheartened a.
when he viewed the poor chances HI
had for a livelihood during the win
ter, but after the rain began falling
and the weather became more sea
sonable, the weed commenced grow
ing and spreading, and at the time
of Mr.. Vaughan's visit was superior
to his crops of the past three years.
