AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT
MRS. EUGENE TRAVERS INJURED
IN COLLISION YESTERDAY.

An automobile accident occurred a
few miles west of Lake Herman yes
terday when Mr.. and Mrs. Eugene
Travers, residing on the Tom Tobin
farm north of Winfred, were return
ing home from the city. According
to reports when found Mr.. Travers
was wandering about in a dazed con-
dition while Mrs. Travers was lying
under the automobile unconscious.
She was picked up and brought to
the hospital in the city where it was
found that she had received many
bruises of the body, the right side of
her face lacerated and right eye in
jured. She was given surgical atten-
ton and today is resting as easy as

London, July 5.-The Germans

Big DAY AT LAKE
CHAUTAUQUA ASSEMBLY MAIN
TAINS RECORD OF GOING
OVER THE TOP.

Madison and Lake county people
have got the habit of going over the
top" In all of their undertakings and
the good record was not allowed to
slump at the Fourth Of July sessions
of the c~hautauqua assembly yester-
day. Between 1000 and 5000 spent
the day at the lake. The receipts
from all sources amounted to 3d.
4S1.58. The gate receipts reached
the sum Of 1888. This, of course,
does not include the season tickets
previously sold, more than 500 of
which are in the hands of assembly
goers. AS an example of going
over the top" yesterday, the cash re-
ceipts of the day amounted to more
than $1,000 over the receipts of the
Fourth of July a year ago.
The special program of sports were
an attractive feature of the day and
furnished entertainment and enjoy
ment for the crowd at times when the
auditorium exercises were not in
progress. The lecture by DR.. Willetts
of Chicago university, at the audito-
rum in the afternoon attracted an
immense crowd and is referred to as
one of the many superior lectures
heard at the assembly during the
years of it's existence. Throughout
the day the crowd was thoroughly en-
tertained and in the evening the pa
vilion was the place sought where
dancing was the amusement after
$50 o'clock. This place was attrac-
tive and the young people on the
ground took advantage of the oppor-
tunities offered for enjoyment.
The c%hautauqua officials today ex-
press themselves highly pleased with
the success of the assembly during
the first few days and there is every
reason to expect a fine attendance
throughout the session. Some of the
best things of the program are yet to
come, especially the lecture of Father
Jeane Baptiste De Vile Sunday. aft
ernoon at 3 o'clock. The title of this
lecture is Back from Belgium, "
words that will at once attract the
eye and cause many people to con
gregate at the auditorium to hear the
story. Father De Vile brought 1900
homeless Belgian women and chill
dren to America, and he graphically
tells his experience among the peo-
pie first to suffer the cruelties of the
Hun in the prevailing world
Following is the stated program at

WANTS REAL ACTION
WOULD RATHER BE IN THE
TRENCHES THAN In AN
OFFICE.

Pierre, July 5.-That censoring of
tant is indicated in letters received
this week from Fracne from Lieut..
Will G. Robinson, son of Doane Rob-
inson, of Pierre. Lieut.. Robinson
writes of returning from a weeks
training in the trenches, to find him
self ordered to the states, but upon
his remonstrance to officials that he'd
rather do "16 hours on and eight off
in the trenches than stand around in
the United States till the end of the
war shouting at rockies he has
been given a new job since finishing
his instruction in the tank service,
and is now supply officer Of the
American Light Tank center, and
writes:
II have had aonther office job
wished onto me / would a lot rath-
er be with a line company, but in
this mans army l guess the best
thing is to do as ordered.
1.-The Lord only knows when we
will see any action. / hope the CEN
sor will let that statement through.
At that, | guess the censor is alright.
When l was up with the French they
told me the country was simply rot
ten with spies, and indiscriminate
letter writing might reveal a lot of
things, though if / told you all that
l know it would be a lot less than
you could read i'm the home papers.

velous army ever assembled. We

ates of Harvard, Yale and ven Hell

days and got a chance to see a lot OF
notable objects of antiquity; also
something of the late Mr.. Bonaparte's
taking ways. AS a collector he must
have been in his day"
Lieut.. Robinson went across In
January with the Fourth South Da'
kota, and after a time of being in the
headquarters staff, went to the tank
service training school, and then in
structed In service. He wrote of the
manipulation of a tank to the effect
1T is like riding around in a bathtut
on roller skates, standing on your
head meanwhile looking through
keyhole to steer it over bitches and
fences, but away from insurmount'
able objects like houses, etc."

woMAN,s DEVOTION TO HOME.

Home duties to many women ap-
pear more important than health.
No matter how i'll they feel, they drag
themselves through their daily tasks,
overdo and pay the penalty in head
aches, backache, dragging-down pains
and nervousness; they become irri-
table, and finally discover that some
form of femal complaint has fastened
itself upon them. When a woman
gets into this condition there is one
tried and tru remedy made from the
roots and herbs of the field, Lydia e.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound,
which for more than 40 years has
continued its great work among
women in restoring health after
many other remedies have failed.
