HEAT IN CHICAGO TOOK
PLACE OF INSANE FOURTH

Chicago, July 5.-Intense heat,
affecting nearly the entire country
east of the Rockies, supplanted the
old fashioned Fourth of July as a
messenger of death. Four persons
died in Chicago and twenty-five
prostrations had been reported be-
fore noon. From other cities of the
west and middle west came stories
of suffering and death.
Moisture laden clouds checked the
mercury's climb just short Of go,
but brought the relative humidity
to a point that increased the dis
tress. Scattered showers were re-
ported all over the heat belt, but
they brought little relief.

FOR SOUTHWESTERN KAN.

ed effort is being put forward in
this section of southern Kansas to
obtain a well defined system Of
good roads, and arrangements are
being made between representatives
of towns in Marion, Butler and Cow

road be called the white Star
route" and that white stars should
mark its course, while others urge
the name "1O1 route" in honor of
the 101 ranch, and that buffaloes
should be the road mark.

Veterans Leave Gettysburg Reunion
for Home.
AL IN SILENT SALUTE TO FLAG
Packing Up Begins as Soon as the
Presidents Address Was De-
Iivered-Remained to
Greet Wilson.

Gettysburg, July 5.-The regular
army paid tribute yesterday to the
thousands who sleep under the hills
~ Gettysburg. Somewhere down In
the heart of the tented city Dugle
sang out a silver sweet call, that
wandered over the field Lee and
Meade made historic. The big nag
before the headquarters OF General
Liggett, flashing in sudden curves
Of red and white and blue, glorious
In the sunshine of perfect July
day came slowly half way down the
shaft. In front of the tent, shout
.ders squared, figure trim in summer
uniform of white, face toward the
flag, the general clicked heels to-
xether and stood at attention.
Somewhere the guns OF the Third
battery burst into staccato salute.
Every officer over the length and
breadth of that wide field, every
enlisted man turned away from the
duties Of the moment and faced the
flag, heels together, heads up and
eyes alight with the sentiment OF
the hour.
That five minutes silence was
probably the last formal mark OF
the semi-centennial celebration. On
" a few minutes before President
Wilson spoke in the big tent to the
veterans in blue and gray and only
n short time afterwards thousands
or those who were left began their
preparations for departure.
The president came to Gettysburg
shortly before IL o'clock from Bal
Himore.
AS the president stepped from his
car he was greeted by presidential
salute from the battery parked on
the battle field and mingled cheers
and rebel yells from the blue and
gray CARRIED veterang who had
Ghr0nged to the station to greet him.
An escort of ca@Alry was waiting to
convey the Rotor car with the pres
ident and his party to the big tent
3ust off the Emmittsburg road on
the battle field, where the formal
exercises were commenced at IL
o'clock.
Many of the old soldiers had plan
ned to leave Thursday but remained
over to greet the president, and the
reception accorded him was a fit
ting climax to a weeks of tears and
cheers.
Yesterdays event was really in the
nature of an added attraction. So
far as the regular program was con-
cerned It ended Thursday night, and
the only set feature yesterday was
the presidents address.
