q. s. Officials Discuss War
situation-;Fsnch Aid
Turns Reds?

Washington, Aug. 17.-(United
Press)-Without latest moves in
the Bolshevist siege Of Warsaw Of
ficials here were in doubt today
concerning dispatches that the Pol
ish capital had been invaded by
Russian cavalry patrols.
The latest official information
reaching here was that the Bolshe-
viks were II miles from Warsaw.
This dispatch came from Poland di-
rectly under the date Of last Sunday
night. Z
The actual entrance of Bolshevik
troops into Warsaw would cause nc
surprise here. However, reports
recently have told of q stiffening
of. Polish resistance.
Cabinet Discusses Crisis.
The entire Rus o-Polish crisis
was expected to be scussed today
by President Wilson and his cabine,
at their regular weekly meeting.
Secretary Colby will probably
bring before the president the Ques.
ton of food and supplies for Poland
for final decision.
Officials Of the American Fed.
GRAFTON OF Labor believe the United
States government will have tht
support Of organized labor in an,
move to aid Poland, according t
information at Federation of Labor
headquarters today.
This Is the policy Of the fedora
tion's high officials and they be
lieve the rank and file will bacl
them.
French Aid Turns Redsl
Warsaw, Aug. H.-(By Associat
ed Press)-There were renewe.
signs 1t the front today Sunday
that..sthe French were taking
more. prominent part in the guild
ance Of the Polish army. Genera
Weygand is said to be the genera
responsible for the new tactics nov
being employed to repel the invad
ers.
Modern implements Of war wer
brought into play. There were air
planes on bombing raids, tank
, which had seen service in France
and cannon. There were also ar
mored speed boats on the Vistula
armed with machine guns.
Prisoners Stream In.
Great numbers of Russian sovie
prisoners reached Warsaw this al
ternoon, some of whom had bee
in battle this morning. They cam
in groups Of 20 or 30 and some
times in droves Of hundreds. tn
prisoners were uniformed in .dul
ash-colored jumpers and trousers
bearing resemblance to laborer
emerging from steel mill.
The sound of cannon was plain
ly audible in the distance but
was distinctly that of field artil
lery. The heavy bombing Of .210's
.380's and .420's was absolutel
lacking. giving the impression Of
miniature war as compared wit
the heavy cannonading on tn
French front in 1918.

FORD WHEEL ON RAMPAGE

Saturday afternoon seven cars of
employees and their families from
the Ford distributing agency, Min
aeapoliS, drove through Sank Centre
enroute for Osakis to spend the
Fourth. The party had reached the
southeast pert of the city when one
of the rear wheels on the rear car
came off, rolled by the Herman Ha-
ger residence and struck the porch
of the Whitcomb home. Mrs. Whit
comb was setting on the porch at the
time. The wheel struck the porch
with such velocity it bounded Into the
air, spinning three times about hea
head, and landing in the lady's lap.
It is said that the steps broke the
speed of the wheel sufficiently to save
Mrs. Whitcomb's life. The Ford has
pulled many stunts in its jambouring
about the country, but for a part of
the machine to leave the highway and
attack a defenseless lady is new
one.

Death of Husbandin Aeroplane Fall Sunday
Joseph Kellogg, Well KnolDn Real Estate Man, Dies
from Injuries Received at Fairy Lake Sunday
Pilot Slightly Injured Plane Wrecked

Joseph Kellogg of the MortonKel-
logg Land Company of Minneapolis,
and a resident of Sank Centre, died
at 10 o'clock Tuesday morning as the
result of injuries received Sunday af-
ternoon when an airoplane in which
he was a passenger, crashed to the
ground at Fairy Lake Resort.
The accident occured while Kellogg
was making flight as passenger in
a standard plane with Pilot c. l..
Stodolka, of Royalton.
The plane in which the two were
making the fight went into tail
spin and crashed to the ground from
height of about 500 feet while the
pilot was attempting to make a
landing.
In explanation of the accident,
Stodolka, who was only slightly in
jured in the smash-up, stated that he
lost control of the rudder and did not
regain control until too late to save
the machine from crashing to the
ground:
Kellogg, who was riding in the
front seat of the plane, was caught
under the machine, the engine crush
ing him to the ground. He sustained
internal injuries, facial bruises
broken arm and a fractured knee
Death was the result Of internal in
juries, according to physicians who
attended him.
The plane was the property OF Sto-
dolka Brothers of Royalton and was
piloted by C. L. Stodolka, one of the
owners.
Stodolka escaped injury when the
plane hit by bracing himself in his
beat. He was severely shaken UP
however, and considerably famed.
Mrs. Kellogg, wife of the dead
man, was the last passenger to make
flight before her husband went uI
and was present when accident oc-
cured. Hundreds of sight-seers were
on the field and witnessed the acct
dent. Kellogg was so pinned undes
the machine that it took considerable
time to remove him from the wreck.

Famous Ministries Will
Show at Caughren
Organization of Fifty People Booked
for Tuesday Evening July
Thirteenth

Probably certain people have for
gotten that they are minstrel fans
because it has been SO long since
they have had an opportunity to see
really first class minstrel aggrega-
ton, however, the minstrel microbe
VIII get them when the Harvey Great
Mn tlels make their fashy dress
parade over our streets announcing
i their appearance at. the Caughren
theatre.
The creating Of laughter, the rem
dering of tuneful music, charming
songs, comical stunts and curious
novelties, constitute the purpose of
the minstrel. For this reason, time
and again in the professional papers
the performers and others engaged in
the legitimate amusement business
have been assured by the government
that amusements of this character
ere not considered non-essential. No
wonder in these strenuous times the
demand for the minstrels is increas-
ing until it is impossible for the
management of a first class company
like the Harvey Greater Minstrels to
fill one half Of the dates offered them.
People want to laugh, they want to
be entertained and thus their nervous
systems are better tuned to the
times.
With the Harvey Greater Minstrels
are associated some fifty people all
constituting the very cream of negro
profession, and after all, the negro
is the natural musician and minstrel
of the human race and during the en-
gagement here they will spring some
more of their pleasing surprises.
Mr.. Harvey is. justly proud of Moss
and with Leland Goldman, Irvy Rich
ardson, Will Merritt, Lawrence Baker
and Whitney Whey; his singing is
in excellent hands while Josie Card
ner and Johella Gay among the fe-
male singers stand out prominently.
The company will be at the Caugh-
rem theatre, Sank Centre, Tuesday
evening, July 18th.
