SKELETON FAILS IN TEST
PROVE MANS IDENTITY
Comparison of Measurements With
Arthur Frazier, Indian Soldier,
Leaves Death Issue Unsettled.
By the Associated Press
MINNEAPOLIS,


MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi. July 10
Comparison of the measurements of q
skeleton Of a man buried at Niobrara,
Nebr.. with Arthur Frazier, South Da-
kota Indian soldier who was reported
killed in action, has failed to establish
the mans identity, or the claims OF an
other Indian that he Is Frazier and that
he was enormously reported killed. ac-
cording to a report yesterday from the
University Of Minnesota.
The report was made by DR.. X T..
Scammon, acting director Of anatomy at
the university, and was sent to Dr. H.
A. Burns, assistant chief Of the United
States Veterans Bureau, which is at
tempting to prove that the War Depart
ment erred when it reported Frazier
killed in action The living Indian is at
Fort Lookout, S. Oak, and has been &C
cepted by Fraziers parents as their son.
Measurements of the Niobrara skele-
ton, which was recently disinterred. were
sent to the university here with the ex.
pressed hope by Veterans Bureau ofh-
cials that an examination would prove
that the dead man was not Frazier.
DR.. Scammon was able to fix the
mans height at anywhere from feet
inches to feet 7l1 inches. he said.
Records show that the man who served
in American expeditionary forces in
France as Arthur Frazier was about 5
feet II. inches tall. while the South Da-
kota man is more than an inch shorter.
The measurements might correspond
either with those recorded by the War
Department or those of the man who
claims to be Frazier. it was said.

FIGHTING STARTED
DAVIS TO CLIMBING
Engaged in Encounter With
Lawyer, Then Threat

BY Consolidated Press.


CLARKSBURG. w. Va, July 16.-
Aspiring legal lights. writer's and
others who think it might be nice to
rise to President or similar heights
Of prominence would do we'll to talk
with John w. Davis, Democratic nom-
inee for President, on how to cuiti-
vate fighting instinct. And he ought
to know, for he has done it,
Two fistic encounters in his early
ginning of John Davis access to
power, old friends in Clarksburg are
insisting. If he hadn't doffed his
usual complacency. batted lawyer
in the eye before a courtroom full
of people and chased a reporter who
wrote a story he didn't like through
the town streets with a dog leash,
Davis might still be occupying a back
seat.
AS it was, he learned he could fight
and win. And he's never stopped the
eternal battle since those two days,
which followed closely on each other,
thirty-some years ago.
Simple Country Lad.
John W., the boy. was just a sweet
and simple country lad, obedient and
church going. AS he grew up he
went to college, mingled amiably with
his fellows and returned to Clarksburg
to settle down, moderately success
full country lawyer. Then suddenly
the fight came out
Say, how we'll do I remember the
court because the lawyer arguing a
case with him about who owned some
turkeys called him a nasty name, and
John j. lit out with his fist," old John
Patten recalled while stumbling down
the courthouse steps.
Young John gasped and blushed
and gulped-and then forgot all but
his good right hand. Like a flash he
was at him. and. Lordy. how he laid
it on. and beat that other fellow to
he'd done it when the judge called
for $25 fine from each. Then he blushed
and paid it quietly"
Bud Siers' eyes still pop when he
recalls how seriously John took his
suggestion and went for the news re-
porter with a switch when he wrote
n story slandering his dad.
THE dust flew down the street as
that dog lash bit the ground with
John tearing after the terrified
writer" Bud reminisced. "T thought
that John would like to kill him.
And they've only recently become
friends-the very best of friends
again."
Shocked But Proud.
Then Davis took account of him
self. He was shocked to think what
he'd done. But he liked to know he
could win.
Davis rise was not easy. First
he had to battle to get his fathers
consent to enter politics. Then he
had to fight for every Office he has
held-one way or another. That's
why his home folk are proud of him.
Them two battles did it," Doc
James Johnson declares, pointing his
thumb backways toward the court
house where the first occurred. III

Be Very Careful
About Milk

These scorching days it's SO
easy for bacteria to develop and
make milk dangerous for the
youngsters. Be sure to have the
milk brought into the house and
put into the coolest part of the

livered. You can probably avoid
serious illnesses by following this
rule.

May Divide Management.
Although Mr.. Davis has not COM
mitted himself publicly on the ques-
ton Of dividing the management of
his contest for the presidency, it was
said today by persons high in Demo-
cratic councils that the candidate is
favorably inclined toward such a
division of responsibilities. At the
party leaders yesterday Mr.. Davis
said no decision had been reached
on the matter.
The plan contemplates the sharing
of the campaign dictatorship by the
chairman of the national committee
and the campaign manager. Should
such an innovation be adopted, it is
reported that Mr.. Shaver. national
Committeeman of West Virginia, may
be chosen for chairman of the ma
tional committee. This, despite ru-
mors to the contrary. One of the
most seriously considered possibilities
for campaign manager is said to be
Thomas ]. Spellacy of Connecticut,
formerly an ardent McAdoo follower.
1t is said that the campaign man.
ager is almost certain to be an east
ern man. AS a result there is much
speculation regarding Vance Nc
Cormick of Pennsylvania, and also
some discussion Of Daniel c. Roper
of New York. both OF whom were
actively identified with the Wilson
campaign.
The nominee has made arrange
ments to leave Friday night for Isles

Gibson. but it is said that if a COM
mittee chief is not chosen by that
time the visit may be cancelled.
