SURVEY OF INDIAN
GRAVES REVEALS
ANCIENT RELICS
Old Dwelling Places OF Menonminee
Tribe Explored.

Madison. visa survey of the In
dian remains of Marinette county and
a recent search for mounds in Me
nominee land" are described in an ar
t;cle in the latest number of the Wis
consin Archaelogist.
The Menominee Indians made no
burial mounds, such as are common
throughout other parts of the state,
but practiced tree burial or buried
their dead in shallow graves, covered
hv three logs. According to a Memo
minee from the Shawano reservation
,bere is no word for mound in his
language.
Although no mound groups we're TO-
Gated and evidences of early lndiah
cultivation were almost entirely lack
ing, except garden beds at Lafe Noe
que bay, many village and camp SITES
cemeteries, and trails we're found
Tbese we're located mainly in the
Peshtigo river region, the Lake Moe
cre bav region, and the Menominee
river region.
Trails are apparent on both banks
of the Menominee river, which was it
self a great water trail. A third trail
ran down the bank of Green bay to-
ward the Peshtigo river; another-trall
lad from the falls of the Peshtigo to
the mouth of the stream. Another
aboriginal trail extended from Pock-
ety Mock toward Lake Nocque bay
partly a land route and partly water
route. Between Lakes Mary and julia
the Indians had a portage, which can
still be plainly seen.
The mouth of the Menominee river
was the principal home of the Menom'
inee Indians, as may be seen from the
numerous evidences of camp life scat
tered along the bay short. The pres
ent site of the chautauqua grounds /!
evidently a camp site. A second vii
lage site was on the south bank Oft
small creek near the Menominee river
in the town of Porterheld.
The article also contains an inter
esting account of the battle of thu
Pierced Forehead, fought on the pres
ent site of the Marinette and Memo
minee.

of Jacob Chester of Brooklyn, starts
on his eighteenth birthday for Paris
Island, S. c., to train for service in
the marine corps.

was refused because of his youth.
Then he went to Washington, where
he forgot his age, but was again re-
iected because he wore glasses.
Thence he went without glasses to
Richmond, Va, where he enlisted but
later at Camp Mcclellan. Ala, he was
discharged, his age having been dis
covered.
Young Chester has three brothers,
one of whom is a captain in the ord

AUTO POLO AT FAIR
Popular Sport For Visitors to
Louisville During
September
Something New In Entertainment Line
lis Thrilling and Exciting From
start to Finish.

Auto Polo" is announced as star
feature of the amusement attractions
Of the sixteenth annual Kentucky
State Fair, to be held in Louisville the
week of September GA.
This game will be an entire innova-
ton to State Fair visitors, and is her
aided as one of the most unique, ex-
citing and absorbing contests ever Of
fered at the Kentucky Fair or any
other celebration of like character.
The entertainment consists of a
nerve-tingling, wildly-exciting battle
between polo experts who are mounted
in especially constructed automobiles
instead of on polo ponies as of yore.
Playing the game in addition to man.
aging careening, space-eating auto
mobile is a proposition calculated to
keep spectators on the qui vive OF
excitement and suspense, and the game
in it's present form rather tends to
make the pony-played polo look like
child's play.
The polo contests will take place
every night of the Fair in the big $780,
900 Hippodrome Building and every
afternoon in front of the race track
grandstand.
The game is said to be one which
has created furore in the sporting
world, and few can watch the curious
reconstructed, automobiles turn tur'
tie" at critical periods Of the game and
right themselves Immediately by rea
son of their build, without being on
their feet with excitement during the
better part of the game.

complete are occupied and it is re-

be built some time this year. The
location of the development is splen-

HEARINGS BEING HAD
ON MEASURES TODAY.
Governor Listens To Opponents
And Advocates Of Bills Pass
ed BY The Legislature.

Almost overwhelmed with the host
of advocates and opponents of meas
ures passed by the Legislature, Gov
ernor Harrington today began hear
ings upon measures now before him
for his signature or veto. The first
delegation to go before him was one
from Chesapeake Beach protesting
against the signing of the dry" law
for that resort.
These will be followed by other
delegations during this afternoon and
the merry round will be resumed on
Wednesday and continue until the
actual action on bills begins at noon
The work will not be pushed con-
tinuously, as the Governor and Attor-
ney General desire ample time in
which to scrutinize bills bfore execu-
tive approval is given. AS far as the
examination of bills has gone no
snake" has been discovered. Reptiles
are apt to creep into measures un-
awares during the hustle of the clos
ing hours of the General Assembly. 1t
is not probable that many bills will be
vetoed by the Governor.
Among the measures for which a
hearing has been asked is that Gre
ating the Prince Georges County
Racing Commission. The opponents
Of this bill are confined to the county.
They made their opposition in the last
political campaign and lost. They
carried their fight to the Legislature
and again lost.
