that the United States soldier is follow

Evidently. many of those men expect
ed nothing except hardships.
The result of the y. II. G. 4 workers

was that when the men left tho tram
they insisted on shaking hands with him
and their spirits were high They found
that their comforts were II d. consid-
cred and they need not expect anything

ment.

Kansas Millionaire Tried to Take Boy
to See Grandparents.

Chicago, Aug. 15.-John F. Nc
Candliss, millionaire oil magnate of
Independence and Chanute, Kan, lost
one of the most remarkable races with
death on record at Geneva, a suburb,
when his 15-year-old son, Charles
Agnew, died in his mothers arms in
the family automobile late Wednesday.
Stricken with a fatal heart ailment
while n a vacation in Minnesota, the
boy was told by specialists at the
Mayo hospital that he might live only
a short time. He expressed a desire
to visit his grandparents in Petersville,
Pa, before he died. Fearing the ex-
element of a trip by rail McCandliss
decided to make the long trip by auto
mobile.
All went well until Geneva was
reached when the boy gaSped, Il
think I'm going,' fell into his mother 5
arms and died.

Unknown Boat Mt Sea.

Newport News, Va, Aug. 15.-Gov-
eminent authorities today are inves-
tigating alleged signalling to sea from
a cottage at Virginia Beach.
A spectacular raid made by justice

gence officers last night is said to
have developed the presence in the
cottage of several men attached to
the government radio station and
rifle range at Virginia beach and three
young women understood to be en-
ployes. of the ordnance department at
Washington.
Laid Trap for Those in Cottage.
Last night a boat from the coast
guard station was sent out to sea in
charge of Captain Barnes of the Vir-
ginia beach station. Aboard 1t were
a government agent and an expert
radio man. On shore other government
agents surrounded the cottage.
The signal man stated he had
read several code flashes sent from the
upper story of the cottage and that
following these flashes there had been
an answering signal flashed by a blue
light from some boat which could
not be seen.
Miss A. L. Pratt, a registered nurse
who is proprietor of the cottage, de-
clared she is loyal British subject.
Among the others found in the
house and closely questioned by the
officers wore Mrs. Max J. Rohlder
who has an office in Norfolk, and
