CAMP MILLER
A Brief History Of the Y. NJ. G..
A. Camp Established ut
Sturgeon Lake.

The American has secur-
ed a story on the history Of
Camp Miller, the Duluth
Y. M. C. A. camp, which was
established on the shores of
Sturgeon lake 10 years ago,
and which closed this sea
sons outing only a few
weeks ago. The story is
written by N. d. Nc Leod,
secretary of the boys de-
partment of the Duluth Y.
M. c. A. and follows:
Camp Miller has been organi-
zed Is years. starting first in a
small way with IL boys camping
near Duluth. then went to Ely,
Minn., and it was there that it
got it's name Camp Miller. Ex-
Governor John Miller of North
Dakota. was the president of the

was in his honor that the camp
was named. Gov. Miller was q
virile type Of Christian man
and while governor of Dakota
could have received a fortune
from the louisiana Lottery Co. if
he would have permitted them
to operate in that state. This he
refused to do and his action was
largely responsible for putting
that gambling organization out

 Last ysa1 there were 1702 persons killed and 4S1S injured at railway grade crossings in the United States. As there are more than q'Ia ar of nil hon grade crossings and mere than ten million licensed automob ies, net to mention the horse-drawn vehicles, it is obvious that the elimination of these crossings at grade is going to be grad ual process.

THE TROOP MENACE. :,

Because of lawiess acts against rail- road property and fears that more are likely to follow state troops and armed guards are guarding railroad property at various points for the purpose of pre- venting damage by striking shopmen or their sympathiers. Attempts to wreck trains have already been made and that 1t should have become neces- sary to guard railroad property was no more than was to be expected from the experience of other railroad strikes Other railway mems organizations not yet formally involved in the strike are making much of what they call the troop menace" but have not yet offered very convincing proof that 1t actually exists. They charge that the armed pro- tectors are insulting and even firing upon the members of their brotherhoods but they offer to the public no specific instances of these alleged outrages ex- cept in the case of one brotherhood member who, they say, was shot at by a guard at a small town in Nebraska. Ii the armed guards are not withdrawn they threaten that they will have to take what will amount to strike action and this threat has already been put into ef. feet on some western roads.
 If this movement expands into a gen. eral strike the brotherhood chiefs wi
 have 10 justify themselves by offering more proof of the menace" than they have hitherto offered. Up to the present they have talked only in vague and gen. eral terms. They are creating every whss5 the impression that what they ars

FRESH ICED TEA

Freshly brewed ice tea has no peer as a refreshing drink on a hot day. But do you know how to make good iced tea Iced tea must be brewed as carefully as coffee. Anyone can make coffee or colored liquid of nondescript flavor that serves as such. but the makers of good coffee are far fewer. Their methods and their measurements are not slipshod.
 Too strong tea, allowed to cool and weakened with cold water. tastes no more like properly brewed ice tea than warmed over coffee tastes like fresh beverage served steaning hot at breakfast.
 Plain green tea does not make the best iced tea. A blend of green and black tea makes the most accepta- ble drink. To make iced tea, take a spoonful of tea to one cup of boil ing water. Put tea in a tea bal Heat the teapot thoroughly with boil ing water. Pour out this water, hang the tea ball in the pot and pour over the required amount of freshly boil ed water. Let stand five minutes tC steep.
 Have the glasses filled with crack ed ice. Pour hot tea directly over thu ice.
 Tea made this way is clear ant 1 fragrant as hot tea. Standing to coo causes the tea to become cloudy ant l it loses the sweet fragrance of th' | freshly made tea.

RETURN oE sNuEERox

Cigarette and pipe smoking does not seem the limit of feminine uses for tobacco, as the London Express discovers that snuff taking is a wide spread secret habit among English women of the better class. One snuff manufacturer has given the paper some amazing information, declaring Women consume 65 per cent. of the snuff now sold" He continued:
 For the most part women take snuff secretly. They will not admit the habit even to their dearest friends Every walk of life has its women snuff takers. I myself have come across l thousands of them, especially among the cotton operatives in Lancashire There old and young women are talk ing snuff daily.
