CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE.

Chicago, May 22.-Authoritative
opinions that the 1919 corn crop is
now two weeks late did a good deal
today to offset bearish factors in the
corn market Prices closed unsettled

July $1.631s to $1.63A and September
$1.JSB to $1.5SA. Oats finished UNI
changed to 12c higher and provisions
unchanged to 40c down.
Corn traders who were friendly to
the selling side dicovered that buyjng
orders came into play whenever values
made decided dip. In this connec-
ton bulls laid chief stress on a state
ment from leading crop expert that
much corn, especially in the big sur
plus producing states, might have to
be replanted unless weather condi-
tions which have been too cold and
wet We're changed without further de-
lay. Scantiness of receipts here and
at other large centers tended also to
make the market harden, and No. 3
yellow for immediate delivery com
manded the highest prices yet this
season. On the other hand hog quo
tations were sharply lower. and there
were reports that a cargo of Argen-
tine corn coming west by Special train
would cost zoe under May contracts
in Chicago delivered.
Gossip that foreigners were buying
futures helped to give comparative
strength to oats. Provisions fell with
hogs.

DIES OF AUTO INJURIES
Joseph KaminslNi, Aged 8 Years, of 1 Union Street Succumbs at New Britain General Hospital

Joseph Kaminski aged 8 years, of Union street, died at the New Britain General hospital last evening of injuries sustained earlier in the evening when he was struck by an automobile driven by Harry Hall, op- posite Washington street on West Main street at 6:3O o'clock Imme- diately after the accident, Kaminskj was rushed to the hospital in John E. Curtin's car, where he lived about an hour. During this time he was un- conscious and was having convul- sions and pr. Hart who attended him found injuries about the body and there were indications of a fractured skull.
 Hall was driving the car In a west erly direction, and with him at the time was Mrs. Ida Cornell of AS Lin coin street, under whose license Hall was operating the machine. He was on the right side of the street and travelling at a low rate of speed. Ac- cOrding to witnesses, Kaminsk and chum named Stanley Damkowski of "A Clark street started across the street. A Plainville trolley car was coming along in an easterly direction at the same time, and this is be- lieVed to have shielded the view of the boys from Hall. When the ma chine was about 30 feet away, the boys suddenly appeared in front of the machine. Hall used every effort to escape hitting them, applying his brakes almost instantaneously. Dam kowski managed to avoid the ma chine, but Kaminski was knocked known, and run over by the car.
 The police were notified and Ser geant Kelly detailed Sergeant John son to the case. All witnesses to the unfortunate affair were interviewed and they held that Hall was blame less. $. E. Davis of Hartford, esti- mated that the car was 30 feet away from the boy when the brakes were set. The headlights of the machine was broken.

EARLY SETTLER DIES

One of the very earliest settlers of
Brookings county passed away IN May
20th, when Jens Evensen Kjolseth
died at the home of his granddaugh-
ter, Mrs. NJ. w. Crapser, in this city.
Jens f. Kjolseth was born in Norway
on September Goth, 1923, and had
reached the age of n~inety-fve years,
seven months and t~wenty-eight days
at the time of his demise. He came
to this country after the Civil War
and in 1878 took a homestead near the
city of Bookings. He has lived here
ever since that date, but for a num-
Der of years has been too feeble to
get around the city that he has seen
grow from it's beginning. He is sur
vived by three sons, Ole, Martin and
William, and a number of g%randchil-
dren and great-grandchildren. Funer-
al services were held from the Crapser
home last Thursday and the interment
was had in Greenwood cemetery.
Thus passes away n more Of the
men who came to the county before
Brookings had eve a name or a men,

THE AMERICAN LEGION

In order to correct any misappre-
hension which may be in the minds of
discharged men Of the United States
military, naval or marine service in
regard to the American Legion the
following statement has been issued:
"The American Legion is not I'M
der the direction of the War Depart
ment and has no connection Herewith.
1t is an organization composed of dis
charged soldiers, sailors and marines,
formed for the lofty purposes set forth
in the constitution adopted at the re-
cent st. Louis caucus. The Legion is
not an officers club, as enlisted men
are urged to take as much part in it
as those who have been in the com
missioned personnel. We have banded
together to help each other and to in
culcate into the minds Of our com
rades and other citizens the princi-
pies of 100 per cent Americanism.
Membership is open to all persons
who were in the military or naval SCR
vice Of the United States between
April 6, 1917, and November II, 1913,
and all persons who were in the mill
tary or naval service of the Allies dur
ing the great war, who were citizens
at the time of their enlistment and
who have returned to that status at
the time o. their application for mem
bership."
