SURGEONS SAY
 GREATER PART
 WILL RECOVER

PARIS, June 5.-The principal sur. geOns of the American hospital near this city made the statement to- night that 90 per cent of the Am. ericans wounded in the attack on Cantigny will recover.
 While the battle was raging at its height the ambulances were bring. ing the wounded away from the bat tleline. It is due to the brave work of the stretcher bearers and ambu- lance drivers who were present when the Americans launched their attack on Cantigny that a great many of these American boys will live. Had it not been for the efficient manner in which this part of the army con. ducted its work, the casualties in the neighborhood of Cantigny would have been much larger.
 As soon as the American soldiers were given temporary treatment by the field hospitals they were rushed to the American hospitals in the neighborhood of Paris. Here there was no time lost by the American surgeons in attending to the cases as they arrived. It is not intended that the United States army in France shall lose single man through negligence on the part of it's medical corps.

WILSON WRITES
 FOR PARDON OF
 THOMAS MOONEY

WASHINGTON, D. C., June B. President Wilson has written his second letter to Governor Stephens of California urging the latter to pardon Thomas Mooney. No action was taken on former request sent the California governor by the chief executive of the United States.
 These letters were written as a result of the recommendation of the commission appointed by the Presi. dent to conduct an investigation into the trial of Mooney at San Fran cisco. At the conclusion of the in. vestigation this commission recom- mended that Mooney be shown clemency.
 On May 2S Mooney was resen. fenced to hang on an indeterminate date. The sentence stated that he could not be hanged before sixty days after sentence had been pro- nounced, but that he must hang be. fore the lapse of ninety days.
 LETTER RECEIVED
 SACRAMENTO, Calif., June B. Governor Stephens announced this afternoon that he had received the letter written in behalf of Thomas Mooney by President Wilson. A re- ply was sent immediately by the governor, but he had no statement to make as to the nature of his reply.
 It is believed here that Governor Stephens is awaiting the outcome of Moneys intended appeal to the supreme court before taking any ac- tion in the matter. No intimation has ever been given out by the gov. ernor as to what his action in the case will be.
 DEATH WARRANT SIGNED
 SAN FRANCISCO. Calif., June B. Judge Franklin A. Griffin today signed the death warrant of Thos. Mooney. Judge Griffin on May 28 pronounced the death sentence on Mooney and ordered him committed to San Quentin penitentiary until the time of execution.
 The judge stipulated . in the war. rant that the sentence should not be executed until the state supreme court acts on the writ of probable cause that is being sought by the attorneys for Mooney. This writ was presented with a view of ap. pealing for a new trial.

MILLIONAIRES
 OFFER ESTATE
 FOR HOSPITAL

OAKDALE. N. Y., June 5.-The Red Cross organization was today offered the immense estate belong ing to Mir. and Mrs. W. K. Wander bilt, ST., to be used as cOnvales- cent hospital for American soldiers. This estate is one of the show places of New York state and is known as Idlehour.
 The grounds cover hundreds of acres along the coast. An immense fortune has been spent by the Van. derbilts in the beautifying of the property. This is offered to the Red Cross with no restrictions whatever. If accepted by the organization it will be under the supervision of one of the Red Cross officials. The residence that is on the estate will accommodate, alone. 1,500 patients. Besides this palatial home there are numerous buildings which could be handily used in connection with the hospital. Although 1t has not yet been announced, 1t is thought that the Red Cross will accept this valu- able gift from the vanderbilts.

COLLISION OF
 TW0STEAMERS
 CAUSE DEATHS

LONDON, June 5.-The passenger steamer Wentworth Castle reached a British port today in a badly crip- pied condition, the result of col. lision with another vessel. Several of the passengers and crew were killed as result of the accident. The collision of the two ships was the cause of series of explosions on board the Wentworth Castle. In these explosions a number of per sons lost their lives. Many of the passengers were caught between decks and were unable to make their escape from the vicinity of the explosions.
 Thinking that there was no hope for the steamer to stay up. the life boats were launched. In the launch ing of one of these, owing to the panic of the passengers, it was cap sized, throwing it's occupants into the sea. Several of these people were drowned. An examination of the damage caused by the collision showed that temporary repairs could be made that would keep the ship afloat until it could reach a British port.
 The Wentworth Castle was enrOute from South African port and car ried a passenger list of 300. Con- plete repairs will be made to the vessel while it is in port.

100000 MORE
 MEN BE CALLED
 IN SHORT TIME

WASHINGTON, D. C., June B. Provost Marshal General Crowder to- day ordered the governors of every State in the Union with the excep- force of 100000 men. These men are to be sent to the various train. ing camps between June A and 28. It is not stated just what the quota from each state will be.
 With the calling of these 100000 registrants it will bring the total number of selective service men to the colors to 1,595,704. After these men which are now ordered to be in camps by June 2S are in training, the nation will have a total of well over 100000 men under arms This includes the draft men, the national guardsmen and the regualr army. Every day sees many additions to the regular army force in volun. teers, many of whom are over the draft age. This total of two million men is far above the number that was thought throughout the United States to be under arms.
 It is estimated that at least l.. 00O,000 youths who had just at. tained the age of 21 were registered. The military authorities who are connected with the registering of these young men estimate that of these 100000 there are 75O.OOO who are fit for active duty

IS
 REQUESTED FOR
 ALASKAN COAST

WASHINGTON, D. C., June B. Secretary of Commerce William C. Redfield has recommended to the bureau of lighthouses that $90.OO0 lighthouse depot be constructed in the near future at ketchikan. Al aska. Secretary Redield states that this is an imperative necessity, as the records of the sinkings along the Southeastern Alaskan coast for the past few years will show. It is understood that the bureau of light houses will favor the construction of the building.
 The hope was expressed by the secretary that the necessary authOri zation for the building of this light. house depot will be obtained from congress. This has long been q need of this part of the Alaskan coast. and efforts will be made to get congress to authorize the ex- penditure. In his recommendation Secretary Redfeld gave the exact amount that 1t was wished to be expended on the depot. This he placed at $s0.O0O.

Little Folks Delight Audience.

The program put on at the armory
last Friday afternoon by the pupils of
the Whittier building for the benefit
of the Red Cross was certainly an
enjoyable affair and was witnessed by
a large and appreciative audience. It
represented many hours of diligent re-
hearsal under competent direction
and more than deserved the clamorous
applause it received.
Each little participant seemed to
feel his or her responsibility in MAX
ing every number success, while all
attested to the excellent drilling given
them by their teachers.
From the time the curtain rose on
the stage banked with little folks
singing the "Star Spangled Banner, . =
until it went down with the singing OF

Elk Rivers Oasis ENDANGERED.

Elk River is to vote ON the license
question at the ensuing village elec-
tion on the 18th prox. The Star-News
says, "a concerted effort is to be made
to remove from the town the stigma
Of shame she has worn for some time
as being one of the few towns of the
state to fail to vote out the saloons
under the new temperance laws"
There is only one saloon in Elk
River, and we understand that it is
decently conducted.
The Star-News then goes on to say!
"When towns like Duluth and Prince
ton, and Anoka, notably of more tur~
bulent population, line up in the dry
column, shall Elk River, which has al
ways posed for culture and progress,
lag behind in the progressive move
ment?"
Such Pecksniffian appeal as is con-
tained in the above quoted sentence
should stir the cultured and progress
sive Elk River prudes to action
nerve their hearts and steel their
swords for the combat.

times long distance, and in a hired
conveyance and officiate at a funeral
without recompense. In numerous
cases the deceased was not even a
member of the church. Why should
a minister, any more than the under
taker, be expected to perform services
for the dead gratuitously? Then there
are many other services that ministers
are called upon to perform for which
they should be compensated, but in
nine cases out of ten hardly receive a
thank you. The laborer is worthy OF
his hire. Ministers Of the gospel are
simply laborers in the Lords vineyard.

f. Grant, who lived in this part of
the county for many years, died at the
Fergus Falls hospital on Friday, Feb
ruary 20, and the body arrived here
last evening. The funeral was held
this afternoon.
While eccentric, Mr.. Grant was a
good-hearted old gentleman and scrup-
ulously honest. For many years he
owned the Sandy lake summer resort,
where he welcomed and accommodated
all visitors. A few years ago he sold
his Sandy lake holdings and moved to
town. He is survived by his wife and
several children.

Another Tragic Death in Isanti Count

Another Tragic Death in Isanti County
Albert B. Hanson, former clerk of
court of Isanti county, shot and killed
himself with a revolver in the basement
of the Isanti County State Bank in
Cambridge Monday. It appears that
Mr.. Hanson, who was cashier of the
bank, was worried over slight over
draft, which was a matter of small
consequence, but it is the only reason
that can be assigned for the rash act.
He had placed the muzzle of the re-
volver to his right temple and the bull
let went clear through his head. He
must have died instantly. Deceased
was fine young fellow and very popu-
lar. He was married and is survived
by his wife and child.

ty commissioners which appear in an,

D. Gray has been given sole charge
of the maintenance work on state
highways in the county this year.
This action was taken at the request
of the State Highway Commissioner.
Mr.. Gray will have fund OF at least
So 400 at his disposal and he is expect
ed to get results. The responsibility
for keeping the state roads in proper
shape will rest with him, and we hope
he will make good. Commissioner
Babcock is determined that the state

of money to build piece Of good road

splendid opportunity to show what he

gineer James D. Gray, who delivered
an interesting allegorica1 and histor~
ical talk on "The Great National High
way" of which Washington and
Lincoln were the engineers.
In few we'll chosen remarks Mr..
Myron presented Mr.. Preus to the
vast audience. For more than an hour
that gentleman held the undivided at
tention of his listeners, and the tell
ing points in his speech were vigorous
ly applauded. Mr.. Preus gave a sue
cinct resume of the causes that led to
the great European war and dwelt at
some length on the outrageous viola,
ton of Belgium's neutrality by the
Germans. He gave lucid explana-
tion of how this country, through the
ruthless submarine warfare waged by
the Huns, became involved in the war
and made powerful plea for loyalty
to the president and country. Mr..
