Bernard Santen's boast that his
team, the Bourbon Laundry, would be
heard from again in the Paris Bowl
ing League race, was well-meant, but
II seems that 1.-The best-laid plans or
mice and men oft go wrong" So did
the Santen calculation.
There was a reversal of form in
Tuesday nights game, with the result
that the I."urd-v team lost the game
to their o,syGaents, the Fordham Hotel
team, by a majority of AZ pins. A re-
markable feature of the game was that

Their other scores ranged from ia to

Gin took the lead with 1863 to his
credit in the third game. He also
captured second honors by bowling LOG
in the first game. Other scores mace
by this team ranged from 1O2 to 164

THE NAVAJO COUNTRY.

The true heroic age" of human his
tory was the period of direct contact
with nature, the age in which heroic
accomplishment and heroic endurance
were part of the daily routine. The
activities of men OF that stage of
progress deserve a place among the
most cherished traditions Of the hui
man race. In the Navajo country in
Arizona and New Mexico are the rem
nants of an almost extinct race, whose
long occupation of the country is re.
corded in ruined dwellings and aban-
doned fields. This little-known region
is the home of the vigorous and PROM
Using Navajos. To improve the condi-
ton of this long-neglected but capable
race. to make their life more intelli-
gently wholesome by applying scien-
tific knowledge, is duty which should
appeal to the people of the United
States.
IN 1909 Herbert E. Gregory, of the
United States Geological Survey. De-
partment of the Interior, began study
of the interesting geologic problems oil
this country at the request of the Office
of Indian Affairs. At times these en-
plorations were exhausting and dan
gerous, but the loyalty and devotion OF
assistants and Navajo guides were
equal to the many hardships and UNI
certainties OF desert travel.
The future OF the Navajo country
depends largely on the solution of one
lproblem-the water supply-and there
fore this work was designed TO pro-
cure data bearing on this problem.
The geography of the region was also
studied with a view of preparing a
description of this little known part OF
the United States-an account design
ed to facilitate the work OF those who
are to supplement- the preliminary eX-
animation by detailed studies.
The report of these explorations Is
extremely interesting not only to en-
gineers and biologists, but to all VINO

THE VANISHING SHAKERS.

From Kentucky comes the story OF
three aged survivors of a once large
colony of Shakers making arrange
ments to have their lands, valued at
more than $1,000,000, revert to the
State. Thus is passing one more Of
the picturesque little Shaker colonies
that dotted the East and Middle West
after the cdning of Mother Ann Lee,
"the elect lady from England i'll
IVA. There are only few of them
left. Probably the total number OF
Shakers i'm the country is far below
the 1000 that they mustered when the
last enumeration was taken half 4
dozen years ago. Forty years ago
they numbered 1000. Most of the
colonies in passing have left riches
i'm land and buildings, for the Shak
ers have been thrifty and Industrious.
History will probably place their re-
ligion on the long list of freak isms
and ologies that have risen and fallen
but there has been much in the sim
plicity and purity of the Shaker life
to make the thoughtful ponder. Sha-
kerism has been defined as spiritual
ism grated to Quaker theology, with
celibacy and communism thrown in;
but that hardly does it justice. The
quaint drab life of the celibate commit
mites has won few converts in TINS
generation and the adoption of chill
dren has not kept pace with the pass
ing of the aged. The last Shaker COM
munity will hardly linger more than
few years longer.-Boston Herald.

FARIS BOWLING TEAM DE-
FEATS LEXINGTON TEAM

Paris not only has the crack basket
ball team of Central Kentucky, but it
has one of the best selni-professiona,
teams in this section. The
mixed teams from the Paris Bowling
League went to Lexington, Monday
night and took hard fall out of the
big city fellers," who have all along
had the opinion that they were irwin
chile. OF course, it may not happen
again. but it was glory enough for the
Paris team to defeat their opponents
by a majority of SAG. Shades of Hen
drick Hudson and Rip Van Wrinkle,
Just think of country town team put
ting it over a crack team like Lexing-
tom But the score shows the boys
did it.
The Paris team played a strong
game, their score going up as high az
213. which was bowled by Funk in the
third game. He also carried the Sec
ond highest score, 1913, in the second
game. Duncan rolled $50 in the third
game; Henry made 100 in the first
game; Hidden piled up score Of 17f
in the second game, while Jones pull
ed out 100 in the third game. The
high man for the Lexington team was
Miller, who got out 172 in the second
game, while Biven came second with
165 in the first game. The Lexington
team fell below their usual averages
and their play was rather weak. The
Paris boys came home highly elated
over their victory, feeling they had
done a great nights work. The score

FLEET TO GO TO ARGENTINE.
America Accepts Invitation of Repub-
lie for Visit.

WASHINGTON, July lit has been
learned from an authentic source that
the United States government has ac
cepted an invitation from the Argentine
government for visit to Buenos Aires
and Argentine water by the American
fleet of war vessels now at Montevtdeo,
Uruguay.
This is the result of quiet exchanges
of views and negotiations that have
been in progress between the two gov
ernments and the fact that Argentina
has rendered such an invitation which
was gladly accepted by the United
States government, is as important as it
is significant in its bearing on the war
between the United States and Germany.
1t means that the Argentine is no longer
a neutral in the war, and that the infiu-
ence of the great southern republic will
be thrown behind the United States and
the entente in the present war, also that
the Argentine republic has taken its
stand with Brazil and Uruguay in aban-
doning neutrality and favoring the OBJ
iects for which the United States has
entered the war.
! The war vessels flying the United
States flag and whose Identification and
TYPES cannot be stated for military rca-
sons, have been slowly making their way
down the eastern coast of South Ameri-
lea.
