SIZZLING HEAT UNBLDDEN
TOURIST FROM THE WEST
Only Cool Place on

THERE was one place close to

THERE was one place close to
New York where it was cool
yesterday. In order to enjoy its
chilling temperatures, however,
one had to belong to that some
what exclusive coterie who fly
Uncle Sans airships.
Out at the Mineola Flying
Field the aviators, pleading for
the privilege to fly, were ascend
ing in their biplanes wrapped in
heavy furlined sheepskin coats,
and didn't stop climbing until
they were from 5000 to 10000
feet up.
When they came down, they
blew long and hard on their
fingers-as the rest of New York
did last January when the mer-
curry dropped for a below zero
record--and announced that the
sky route was a real summer re-
sort.

Here, out in the open, they serve

trial is enough to prove most con-
v~incingly that they are decidedly ma

'biere' is made for nobody in partic-
ular, and out Of nothing in partic-

stopped at any time without improv-
ing the food situation. It is. I be-
lieve, made from rain water. which
is set in the sun until it becomes
musty. This gives it the flavor causes
it to be avoided. Occasionally a Gig

CHAUTAUQUA
OPENS July 3
Rather Extensive Pro
gram Has Been Prepared
For This Season.

Devils Lake, N. D., July 2.-The
Devils Lake Chautauqua formally
opens for the 1918 season on July 8.
"Unless all indications fall" said the
officers today, "the largest crowd that
ever assembled OF the shores of North
Dakota's inland lake will enjoy the
advantages Of the resort this season."
Chautauqua this year offers Id
vantages and attractions which have
never before been on the program.
simultaneously with the opening week
Is the farm boys encampment on the
Rock Island military reserve adjoin-
Ing the C~hautauqua grounds. Three
hundred boys from Towner, Ramsey,
Nelson and Benson counties are this
cultural institute under the direction
Of Messrs. B.. A. Gray, VIM. Guy. T.
T.. Kristjansen and Harry j. Bottz,
county agents of Towner, Ramsey,
Nelson and Benson counties. respec-
lively.
The week will neither be one of all
play nor all work for these young
farmers who are soon to undertake
the responsibilities of solving the food
problem. They are to have agrtcul-
tural experts to speak to them and
when they are at leisure the agents
will see that plenty of u in the way
of outings and sports are provided.
All C~hautauqua entertainments will be
free to these boys. .
The Cut Head Sioux from Fort
Totten arrived today, 200 strong, and
pitched their tepees for a three days
enjoyment of Chautauqua culture.
There is nothing the Indian enjoys
more than being on exhibition and
their sang froid when under scrutiny
would be envied by the most blase So
ciety matron. The Indians this year
eliminated the usual encampment on
the reservation, coming fresh to the
Chautauqua grounds. They will be
able to stage larger and more en-
thusiastic war dances. In previous
years they came to Chautauqua some
what tagged out and their dances
were a little disappointing.
Platform manager will be Writ

and author. Mr.. Lowther will also

Skeleton Recalls
Stories OF Old Crimes
In Ramsey County

Devils Lake. N. D., July 2.-Mem-
cries Of early days. were awakened In
the northeastern portion Of Ramsey
county last week. when in excavating
for Q basement on the Thos. Briggs
farm in the vicinity Of Starkweather
and Edmore a skeleton was I'M
earthed. The sheriff was called and
will have experts examine the ,skele-
ton to determine, whether, or not. 1t
is that Of a white man.. In excava-
lions. 1t is very common in this coun-
ty. to open an Indian burial mound.
1t was a well preserved skeleton,
but those who dug out the bones, are
under the impression that they were
buried without much respect. The
body had been placed at an angle Of
about forty-ave degrees.
Old timers recalled hat q m00 ~
the name Of Andrew Davidson mys-
~teriously disappeared from that COM
munity years ago. At the time he
disappeared, he lived south Of the
Briggs farm. Others recalled stories
OF other crimes.
No clothing was found on tho body.
Evidences ~accenuate the belief that
the man, whose remains were found,
died from foul means.
