HEROES Of PEACE!

Cleveland, O., July 27.-Death in a
grave of water and heavy gas is the
sacrifice of men who work to supply
big city with water!
Heroes of peace they are-martyrs
for the public good!
This was never more plainly shown
than when more than score of men
were choked to death $50 feet be-
low the surface of Lake Erie while
building tunnel to crib that will
supply water for Cleveland.
In every case where lake cities Sc
cure water from cribs far out in the
lake the same danger exists.
Men who work in the tunnels know
the danger. Many have died before
them.
In this latest accident the martyrs
were the men who died. The heroes
were the men who dashed into the
tunnel in an effort to rescue fellow
workmen, knowing they, too, might
be choked to death or buried under
a cave-in from the bottom of the lake.
On the surface of the lake is a crib
which looks like a lighthouse. Be-
meath it, reaching into the bottom of
the lake is the shaft.
From both ends, men are set to
work digging a horizontal tunnel to
meet each other somewhere beneath
the lake. Air chambers are dug out
at dangerous places and pressure OF
20 to 30 pounds per square inch sup
piled to the chambers to keep the tun,
mel from caving in on the workmen.
The ground under the lake, is spot
ted with gas pockets, which the dig
gers may strike at any time. That
is one of the roads to death the work
men know they may take when they
enter the shaft each day.
There is no telephone or telegraph
communication between the crib and
the land or to the workmen.
The men working from the crib to-
ward land have no way of notifying
their comrades. who are working
from land to meet them, of any acci-
dent. In the latest accident workers
struck gas pocket and more than a
score were overcome by poisonous
fumes in the two hours that elapsed
before men who were in the crib
learned of the accident.

CAMP LlANO GRANDE
SUITS BOYS Of FIRST
Everything Set at Mercedes
Thermometer Registers 112
Degrees.
ax staff correspond

Mercedes, Texas, July 27.-The
camp of the First Regiment North
Dakota National Guard, has been es-
tablished in first-class. shape.
Although the thermometer regis
ters 112 in the shade. the boys are
standing the heat we'll, few being in
the hospital.
There is no more excitement here
than there was at Camp Lincoln. The
Mexicans that we have come in con-
tact with are friendly, but many Of
them are hungry.
We can see some of the Mexican
troops on the further side of the Rio
Grande with the glasses, and they ap-
pear to be we'll armed and well drill
ed.
One of the most attractive features
of the camp is fine lake about one
mile from camp and 1t is needless to
say that the boys are making the
most of it.
The Third Texas troops are our
neighbors and we're very kind to US
while we were becoming settled.
The rain yesterday was welcome
and the intense heat Of the sun to-
day has been cooled by a refreshing
gulf breeze.
Capt. M. C. MacLachlan of the
hospital corps declares that no one
is sick, that there are few mosquitoes
and that all Of the other regiments
have motor ambulances and North
Dakota ought to have one.

CRAFT
CAUSES EXCITEMENT
Vessel Seen Near New York Is
Thought To Be a Sub
marine.

New York, July 27.-After persist
ent reports had been circulated here
for two days that the German sub
marine merchantmen Bremen had ar
rived off Sandy Hook, some excite
ment was caused tonight by the ap-
pearance in the lower bay of small
vessel of ''low visibility"
The craft which, when first seen,
was lying so low in the water it was
barely discernible, was the Norweg-
ian transformer, Alderney, from Bonn.
bay. The darkness, coupled with the
fact that the British steamship, Ad-
riatic, closely followed, caused many
persons along the shore, who thought
the Alderney submarine, to rush to
telephones. Operators in the various
newspaper Offices were kept busy for
some time answering inquiries from
all parts of the city.
1t was not until the Alderney had
passed some distance into the harbor
that some persons, who had caught a
hazy outline of her, were convinced
that she was not submarine.
