REJECTED BY NAVY; DRAFTED
Man Is Accepted for Service in Army
After Qualifying as
postman.

Corvallis, Ore.-Ernest Chase, rural
mail carrier, enlisted in the navy.
After his final physical examination
he was discharged as being physically
unfit. Then he got a job as rural car
rier and invested $40 in a rig, horse
and outfit. After working 20 days he
was called in the military draft, passed
by the local examining board, and or.
dered to camp.
He doesn't know now whether to
sell his rig and give up his job, or
whether to take a "lay off" and trust
to being rejected by the army as he
was by the navy.

RESERVES BECOMING SCARCE
German Generals Have Used Up
Many Divisions.

With the French Army in France,
July 27.-Greater efforts than ever be-
fore have been exacted this year by
German army chiefs from the troops
under their command. All divisions
have been called upon to make at least
a double effort. The correspondent is
able to demonstrate the terrific nature
of the task thrown upon the German
soldier by the desire of the German
emperor to crush the French and their
armies before American troops ar
rived in sufficient numbers to turn
the balance.
During last year Germany possessed
on her western front between 100 and
ITO divisions. The most of these were
engaged twice and some three times
during the entire twelve months.

WAR WHO0PING INDIAN
CHASES 20 GERMANS
Works So Fast That Even the
Enemy Stops to Watch
CraZed Redskins Actions.

One North Dakota Indian is a match
for 20 Germans, according to a letter
received at Mandan, N. D., from Sergt.
II. I'll. Tostevin, now in service in
France. The Indian Is Charlie Rogers,
a full-blooded Sioux of the Standing
Rock reservation, and q member of the
Eighteenth United States infantry.
'You ought to have seer that Indian
the first time the Boche made a raid
on our trenches" writes Sergeant Tos-
tevin. "He leaped over the parapet
swinging his old rifle over his head.
He let out a yell that he had saved for
years, and it was a genuine warwhoop
by one of the people who made war
whooping famous.
"The Germans were pretty close be-
fore we mixed. Rogers, of course, had
his gun loaded with five rounds, and
his bayonet fixed. After swinging his
gun around his head a couple of times,
he brought 1t down to his shoulders
and emptied his shells at the enemy,
swung it again, yelled and jabbed, and
used the butt of his gun to smash the
skull of another.
~ had my hands full all this time,
but the crazed Indians actions were
so fast that we half watched him, Ger
mans and we fellows alike. 1t was
only a small fracas anyway. The
crazed Indians actions terrorized the
Huns and they beat 1t for their lives.
Rogers never got q scratch. IT
was In fact very much a one-man
scrap, almost an exhibition. / never
saw a man move so fast in my life,
and / guess the Germans hadn't either"
Rogers is now being utilized as a
snlper, and is enjoying himself pick
ing off enemy snipers, Sergeant Tos-
tevin adds, and says that other In
dians in the regiment are being used
for scouting and patrol duty because
of the natural instinct which fits them
for this kind of work.

ALLIED WELL FOUND TO NJ
EM1IRELY TOO SMALL

Workmsn Unable to Lower Casing
Into Hole Because Gauges Had
Not BEEN True.
Another period of exasperating
delay seems to be in store for the
stockholders of the Allied on and
Refining company. The hole has
been found to be at least one inch
less in diameter than the required
size owing to the use of gauges that
: had been hand forged instead of
being turned out in q lathe, accord
ing to high company officials.
With the arrival of the long ex-
pected Baker shoe last Saturday
night it was hoped by the Allied
people that the end of the CON-
pany's unhappy experiences was at
hand. The work of cleaning out
the hole was begun at once and
commenced.
when it was found that the hole
was too small. It was only IL inch

There remained nothing to be

In explaining the reason why the
hole had been drilled too small the
company officials said that the

had been out of true owing to the
fact that it had been hand forged

Will Go After the Tiger.

Ramsey Patterson, locally famous as a big game hunter, of Prescott, who is now employed by the agricul- tural department, has been ordered from Washington to proceed to the Patagonia range near the Mexican border to begin work in destroying the spotted jaguar, which is better known as the American tiger. With his pack of six fox and blood hounds, he left by train Wednesday to take the field. ........
 It is reported there are several hun dred of these carnivorous beasts, which are the most formidable of any quadruped on this hemisphere, and only experts in hunting are employed to run them down. Reports are that they have been killing hundreds of cattle and many people also have been attacked by them. Patterson says he will work the tiger country without any assistance.

WEEKLY KANSAS CITY
 STOCK MARKET REPORT

Kansas City Stock Yards, Aug. D. Cattle receipts were 26,000 head, in- cluding good many drouth cattle, market slow and lower, nothing prime here, hogs sold 15 higher, early top $19.65, but packers got their hogs at steady prices, receipts 5000. Sheep and lambs were 25 higher, no choice lambs, which are worth $17.50, re- ceipts 5000.
 Beef Cattle.
 No good corn fed cattle were here today, and especially there was noth- ing in the class that sold up to $18.50 last week. That kind would have brought as much today, but all other kinds are lower, most of them $1.OO or more under week ago. Some Kan sas wintered steers brought $17.75, others SIP to S16.50; cars of Okla homa steers, weight 986 lbs, brought $15, which was the top in their class; other sales of Oklahomas at $7.5O to $14. Cows quit last week 50 to 75 cents lower, with some kinds selling under $6.00, and they are dull today, most sales of grass cows at S7 to SO.OU, VedlS Dl.UO uuuSI ioot "SSh, best around $13.00.
 StOckers and Feeders.
 Weighty feeders have been in strong demand, but the continued drouth scare has already taken $1.00 off the price, sales today at $10 to SIS Choice stock steers sell up to SIP, but there is an increasing number of use ful red yearlings and calves selling around $8, the kind that brought $10.00 a short time ago.
 Hogs.
 The top of $19.65 paid by order buy CTS looked shaky from the first this morning, as Chicago came in with ar extreme top of S19.75. Packers held off and stopped at $19.50. The tor was paid for heavy hogs, medium weights selling up to $19.60, lights 1 $19.50, though the top to packers or lightweight hogs was $19.35, bulk of sales $19.10 to $19.50. Stock pigs arc materially higher than week ago, ur to $18.5O. If the moderate receipts of today are followed by light runs later this week, the market may go higher, but buyers say there will be nc big advance this week.
 Sheep and Lambs.
 No good lambs were received, elst the top would have been around $17.50, the light run being not enough to supply packers wants. Ewes sell up to $12.50. There is a good strong demand for feeding lambs at price: equal to prices paid for fat lambs, ant breeding ewes sell at S9.50 to S17.00 according to age and quality. | J. A. RICKART,
