Flood Brings Many Fish.

LEWISTON Pa, July High tide

midnight, at q feet inches. Little
flood damage resulted. Jacks creek

Blow on the bugle start the beating
of the drum,
Show the world we're fighting when
the fighting has begun.
Prove it to the nations that we're each
a willing man,
For were the loyal fighting boys of
dear old Uncle Sam.
We're going to the border for a
cause we must defend,
Tho enigmas blot the future no one
knows how it may end.
Just to prove that we are loyal, we
will do the work we can,
And shout to all, Were soldier boys
Of dear old Uncle Sam"
Then. blow again the bugle. let the
notes ring loud and long,
IS we hurry to the border, where we
hope to right the wrong.
Tho we'll have to march the deserts
let the sun our faces tan,
Yet we're glad we're soldiers only for
our dear old Uncle Sam.
Hurry on, my boys, oh, hurry; we can
hear our country call
And with throbbing hearts we hasten
knowing not who first may
fall
Ger the deserts and the sage brush
for each Mexican we'll scan,
Show them that We are the soldiers
of our dear old Uncle Sam.
Blow again that dear old bugle as a
signal all may know,
We are fighting boys of Sammy's or
our way to Mexico
On our way to save Old Glory, which
is but the work of man,
And we're here, the fighting soldiers
of our dear old Uncle Sam.

Cleanup Campaign.

Better means of enforcing
cleanup campaigns are enjoyed
by Wisconsin communities this
year. By a law enacted by the
last legislature (chapter 1913,
laws of 1915, city councils and
village boards are authorized to
assess and tax property holders
for the cost of collecting and re-
moving ashes, garbage and rub
Dish from residences or premises.
The tax may be included in the
general levy and collected in the
usual way. The annual cleanup
campaign is beginning in many
communities. A plea for an early
start is made by the state board

MINOCQUA'S ELECTION
Wild Time in Oneida County
Village -Roughhouse Tao
tics Outcome of fractional
Strife.

fractional differences at Min
ocqua were responsible for an
election that would have shamed
a lumberJack town, if all re-
ports are true. The respect for
law and order was a minus
quantity. Starting with the
opening of the polls the melee
began and it is said a gun was
used to finally quiet things in
the voting station. But on the
streets, it was a battle royal all
day. Fist fights were numerous
and the peaceful little town
nesting on the shores OF its plac-
Id lakes, was the scene of many a
wild event, rivalling the early
days of the wild redskins. Char
ges and counter charges have
been made and it is expected
that arrests will follow. DR..
Iorpy was elected chairman.

NAVY'S EFFICIENCY
 RISING RAPIDLY
There Is Room for Further Im- prOVement, Says Capt. Plunkott

Washington, Dec. 1.-How the American Navy has improved it's battle efficiency by great strides in the last few years was detailed to the house naval uo,,ltulttee today by Captain Charles P. Plunkett, director of gunnery exercises. But while there has been constant improvement in many ways, he said, much remains to be done.
 The Atlantic fleet showed an inn provement of twenty per cent. in target practice last fall at the range firing which is the only method of de- termining individual efficiency.
 Target practice is go per cent. crew and one per cent. material,' said Captain Plunkett, adding that the greatest stumbling block for the navy lies in the fact that 35 per cent. of the officers and men or a ship are shifted each year through expiration of enlistments or the necessity of filling vacancies elsewhere.
 It was brought out that the navy is preparing to work the guns of it's new ships up to 30,00O yards, although 16,0O0 was considered maximum battle range up to the outbreak of the European war.
