no arrest, according to a story
brought in from W~oonsocket this
morning by Engineer A. ID. Smith.
He does not vouch for the truth of
the report, but for the report itself.
1t appears that two men offered to
work for $3.50 a day for the farmer.
On the termination of their time they
demanded their pay at the rate of SIS
a day. The farmer refused to ac-
cede to their demands. After an al
tercation the men went away.
That evening, he saw a light in his
field, which grew to a good sized
flame. He loaded his shotgun. sus-
p~ecting the source and cause of the
burning. and made his way toward
the flames. His binder was between
the house and the flame. on ap

PHYSICAL EXAMINATIONS ARE

the federal service tonight. or as soon
as the physical examinations are
done. The Howard contingent of rs
men arrived on this mornings train
and will partake of the examination
and muster. OF this number, how
ever, are 10, who. having served their
active service of three years. are in
the reserve, having enlisted at the
outset for seven years. The men
from Howard will return to their To-

it would be the better way, both for

Howard is the home Of the regi-
mental commander, Col. Wales. But
for his convenience there is no more
need for part of the company than
there is for the whole one, nor for
the whole company than for the
whole regiment. 1t would seem that
if the company were to be trained
they could get that training as a unit
much better than as separated con
tingents.

men will continue with the company
until ii is decided whether they are
physically fit for service.

COUNTY RED CROSS
1T UP-GINES A DAY
FOR 1T.

Realizing that the demands OF the
Red Cross are growing and will grow
greater every day from now on until
the end of the war, and that Lake
county will be called upon for a gen
erous contribution from time TO time.
DR.. Heston. president of the Lake
County Red Cross. has found il ex-
pedient to hold a Lake county Red
Cross day.
Plans are now being perfected TO
observe Sunday. August IL, for that
purpose. The management of the
Lake Madison Chautauqua %associa-
ton have very generously offered the
use of their grounds to the Red
Cross, and all gate receipts on that
day will 90 to the Red Cross fund

the afternoon and in the evening free
moving pictures will be shown at the
auditorium. 1t is hoped TO make this
the biggest day in the history of the
Chautauqua association.

appointed by President Heston to
have full charge of the arrangements
and activities of that day. John w.

PAVING PLANT
PLANT BEING BUILT NEAR THE
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES BE
ALL HERE NOW.

With swarms of workmen trundl-
ing heavy things about. unloading
cars of stone, asphalt, lumber, ma
chinery and equipment. With great
machines standing about, some of
which are plants complete in them
selves and too unwieldly to remove
from permanent rolling stock, and
are transferred to temporary tracks
1T all gives one an idea of the be-
ginnings of some great industrial
plant. But this plant is only the
little necessities of the paving com
pany who are to lay streets for us
i'm Madison.
The machinery involved in this
work must have cost a pretty penny.
1t is not the largest machinery as ma
chinery goes. perhaps. nor is it as
sembled in the largest plant. as large
plants go. maybe. But it is a right
smart of stuff at that.
The steam shovel first attracted at
tention. and still holds its admirers.
The roller came for the streets, one
OF a fleet Of three. Then the outfit
for laying curb made its obstrusive
and destructive way along the high
ways. Now remains the mixer for
concrete for the paving base. This
machine stands on the ground near
the station. ready to propel itself TO
the place Of first service, and begin
work. This is a steam driven ma
chine. mixing the aggregate and run
ming it into a bucket on a long boom.
The boom swings the bucket to the
desired spot on the street. where its
contents are dumped. The machine
propels itself ahead of the advancing
base as laid.
In the company yards at the round
house is now collected two more roll
ers for surface rolling, a traction en-
CINE. to act as an auxiliary to the
engine on the great mixing plant,
and the mixing plant. There are
quantities OF crushed rock. cars be
ing unloaded every day. Asphalt. as
il IN from the mines at Trinidad,
are being unloaded. and stand about
i'm the rough barrels by hundreds. A
pile of sand is being accumulated,
which though 1t looks large, is said TO
be but a small amount ven to start
with. Some temporary buildings are
being erected. Men are hustling
about. evidently knowing what they
are doing.
The mixing plant itself is mounted
on a car probably 100 feet in length.
There are engines, furnaces. tanks,
pipes. wheels and drums and paddles
and belts and valves and elevators
and chutes b~ewildering and alb libi-
tum-which you nor | could not IN
derstand and never will-all mount
ed on this car. And ii looks as
though. when they get to turning out
the material for paving. there will be
something for a number of men to do.

SECOND R. 0. 7. CAMP
CHANGED FROM FORT
RILEY TO FORT SMELLING
AUGUST 10.

1t has now been determined that
instead of being called to Fort Riley,
the second reserve officers training
camp will be called together for
training at Fort Smelling. 1t has
been a matter of conjecture for some
time which camp would eventually
receive the designation.
Saturday an examination was held
at Sioux Falls in response to appli-
cations for entrance to this camp. In
this state something " 500 APP
piled. The quota is to be 100.
This district comprises the states
of Minnesota, Iowa, North and South
Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri
and Colorado, and from which the
successful applicants will report to
Fort Smelling. 1t is expected to form
the camp on August Is.

Officers May Split.
1t is probable there will be a split
in the county officers association as
a result Of committees from all or
CARNATIONS voting yesterday to meet
next year at Des Moines
At II: 30 the supervisors. auditors
and stewards of county homes voted
to 60 to Sioux City for the next an
nual gathering. The clerks sent
committee into the large court ROOM
where the supervisors were meeting
and the statement was made the clerks
would 60 to Des Moines. This may
mean the sheriffs and recorders also
will go there. The treasurers usually
meet at the place selected by the audi
tors and supervisors.
Some Of the delegates objected to
Dos Moines because the convention
was held there two years ago. In the
past it was customary for the officers
to go to Des Moines every other year.
More Officers Elected.
The stewards elected ]. H. Williams
president and Mrs. Williams secretary
and treasurer. This means the offices
are held in one family. Mr.. and MRS
Williams are from Cedar county.

lowing: Roy Manor, Abba, president
