 FROM INDIANA
@'rem the Indianapolis News.1


 Two Indianapolis women had been spending some time in New York, and the New York" accent caused them a great deal of trouble. As any one who has been there knows, the New York accept is as hard to understand as the English, especially to the small town person of the Middle West. This story will appeal understandingiy to those who have been Ion" to New Yawk"
 They have been told that to reach Wanamakers they should board the subway and get off near Tenth street. They knew it was the first stop the train made after they boarded 1t. The train slowed up.
 "Is this Wanamaker's?' one of them asked the subway guard. "Awstah P-lacei" yelled the guard.
 "Gdd he say: Ask the police?' g asked the first visitor, as they tun- bled out on to the platform. T thought he said: Past the piace!f" said the second.
 And just then they sa# the street sign ,"Astor Place" And they knew what the guard had said. Which was kthe right place, anyhoV.

London, July 1.-The fall of For eign Secretary Won Kuehlmann was arranged by German army headquar- ters and is regarded in Germany as the introduction or an open Pan- German regime under the control of the military leaders, dispatches from Holland say. It is described as the biggest of series of Pan-German vic- tories.
 Reports of the appointment of Ad- miral Von Hintze as foreign secre- tary are accepted as final by the Pan- German papers, which contend that this involves no change of policy. This contention, however, as well as the assurance that Von Hintze is not l Pan-German, is false, according to the correspondent of the Daily Tele- graph. Won Hintze is described by him as swashbuckler and an inti- mate and creature of Admiral Von Tirpitz, the Pan-German leader. Much excitement was caused in the i corridors of the reichstag Tuesday l by a rumor that Von Hintze had been | appointed foreign secretary. After the | Socialists had informed the resident | that they were not prepared to vote 1 the war credit until they knew what | foreign policy Won Hintze was going
 to pursue, it was agreed, as a way out of a threatening situation which | possibly would result from the ma
 jority Socialists joining the minority | group in rejecting the war credit
 that the full sitting should be ad- l journed so that the house could gc
 into committee for confidential dis
 cussion.
 The result of this gathering was
 that the semi official announcement o1
 Won Hintze's appointment took a ten
 tative form, merely saying he had
 been named" as Won Kuehlmann's
 successor.

London Looks Upon Secre ; tary's Ousting As Great

Paris, July 11-Decision to accept the resignation of Foreign Secretary Won Kuehlmann was taken on Mon day at a conference at German head quarters which was attended by the emperor, Chancellor Von Hertling and Admiral Won Hintze, says a Zurich dispatch to the Matin.
 The reported appointment of Won Hintze as foreign secretary is regard ed by French papers as the work of the German general staff, a challenge to the majority in the reichstag, and 8 deliberate insult to southern Ger many. LHomme Libre says the mill itary party is stronger in Germany than the diplomats, and in overthrow ing Von Kuehlmann the miltiarists show plainly that they want a war to the end land we must not forget that"

MEN AT CAMP FUNSTON TAKE
PRIDE IN ORGANIZATIONS
FORMER BUSINESS MEN.
HAPPENINGS OF THE STATE
What is Going on Here and There
That is of interest to the Read
ers Throughout South Da-
kota and Vicinity.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
One organization in Camp Funston
is unusual as it is made up entirely
of men from one state. 1t is Company
B, of the 342nd machine gun battalion.
The entire company including the O
commissioned officers claim South Da-
kota as their home state. There is
scarcely a county that is not repre-
scented on the company roster.
This company has been in training
less than three months, but has pro-
crossed more rapidly than many other
organizations as its men all have a
common interest and work in closer
harmony than companies made up OF
men from different states. The boys
Of the camps make the B company bar
racks a South Dakota headquarters
and drop in to spend an evening oc-
casionally. A piano and photograph
help to keep things lively and visitors
always report a good time.
There are many prominent South
Dakota men soldering at Camp Funs-
ton and CD company has its share of
them. William Wieland, formerly of
the firm of Wieland & Son at belmont,
and C. A. Guirich, formerly a bust
ness man of Wakonda, are now the
company buglers. Sergts. Frank Brady
and G. c. Burnett and Corporal e. z.
Barry are we'll known cattle men from
he western part of the state. Sergeant
G. NJ. Miller, formerly farmed over
1000 acres in Charles Mix county and
there are few people in that part of
the state who do not know him. Cor
poral e. G. Canaday was professor of
mathematics at the University of
South Dakota, and is now company
clerk. Sergt. A. d. Campbell was in
the automobile business and is well
known in different parts of the state.
Corporal j. j.. O'Reilly was in bust
ness at Draper. All these men are
making good as soldiers and show the
same enthusiasm in the business Of
soldering that they did in their voca-
tons in civil life.
There are few South Dakota boys at
Camp Funston that have advanced AS
rapidly as William Wander Worst, of
Lake Andes. He was mustered into
the ndIloHal ARMY as pTlSdse III oSp'
tember and was promoted to the ranks
of corporal before he had finished his
first month in service. Later he was
again promoted to sergeant and at
present is acting first sergeant of
Company G, 340th machine gun battal-
ion. He is n of the 440 men Of the
amp who have been selected for train
Ing for commissions as ~lieutenants.
