Cherrian Dance at
the Armory Tonight
Tonight is the night of the Cherrian
dance at the armory in which every
body is invited to attend, whether they
dance or not. The dance is given to
raise funds towards paying the ex
penses of taking the band on the
Marshficld excursion.
The dnnce is not only for everybody
interested, but it is also for those who
enjoy seeing others dance. For the
dancers, the charge is five cents a
number. For those who do not dance,
there is no charge whatever, and it
will cost the non-dancers not a cent
unless they are lured to the wheel of
fortune at five cents a throw, in which
there will be no blanks.
Other means of entertainment will be
the famous keno game run by George
C. L. Snvder. who claims to know all
there is worth knowing about this
fascinating game. Hot dogs and soft
drinks will be served on the side, and
those who do not dnnce will be proper
ly taken care of.
' The Cherrians will meet in uniform
at the armory at 7:30 o'clock and drill

citv. The dancing will begin at 8:JU.

Baltimore, Md., Aug. 10. The
Bremen, second German sub-sea
fleet to dive toward America,
will come to Baltimore and its
arrival will be within a few
days, according to reports here
this afternoon, despite the
strong efforts of the Eastern
Forwarding company to create a
rumpus in New England and so
draw the floating eyes of allied
nations from the Chesapeake.
It was reported that German
American societies had a tip
that the Bremen wouud be in

Is Still Standing "For Un
flinshing Protection of
American Rights"
By Perry Arnold.
(United Press staff correspondent.)
Grand Forks, N. V., Aug. 10. Speak
ing to his first farmer audience as a
presidential candidate, Governor
Hughes today urged unity of thought in
Americanism and reasonable prepared
ness with governmental efficiency.
"I believe in protection for farmers
just as 1 believe in protection tor men
in factories," he declared. "America
will not hold her own by declamations.
by high sounding phrases, she will re
tain her place because she has the sense
of tacts to force politics to reduce un
necessary talk, the burden o'f words to
a minimum, to obtain that which is es
sential to her security and progress.
"I stand for the unflinching protec
tion of American rights. I do not be
lieve we can hold up our heads in self
respect if our words are not meant to
be followed by deeds. I believe that in
the great source of difficulty. Weak
ness breeds insult and insult breeds
war."
The candidate declared lie stood for
"an impartial business like administra
tion." "It was a source of great satisfac
tion," he said, "to be able to respond
to this call, n call which I didn't ex
pect free and clean from all incumb
rance." Hughes urged a governmental budget
system of making appropriations iu the
iutcrest of efficient administration.
'Tf you give me the opportunity,"
he said, "I shall devote myself to that
ideal of governmental efficiency."
Mrs. Hughes sat with her husband
on the platform of the auditorium, car
rying a big bunch of roses. '
Lynn J. Frnser, nou-partisan guberna
torial uominee, introduced Hughes.
Is "Burning for Job."
"I wish I could tell you how it thrills
a man to make a trip such as Ijim mak
ing," Hughes began. "I've been across
the continent before but to make such a
hurried trip and see such loyal citizens
makes a man burn to serve them. At
the base of all our prosperity is the ag
ricultural iudustry. There must be un
ity of thought everywhere as in a
great co-operative undertaking. We
must go up or go down together. There
must be determined co-operation so that
everywhere we shall have the best done
to the end that we shall enjoy a common
prosperity."
Continuing, the nominee urged pre
paredness and attacked democratic rule
in diplomacy, dubbing the Mexican sit
uation a "spectacle."
The village band blared out a wel
come to the republican nominee when
his specinl train arrived shortly aft
er 7 a. m., but "Charley" Faruham,
the governor's factorum, hustled out
and hushed the serenade, declaring that
the candidate wanted to sleep. The
bandsmen toted their horns and piccolos
back and shut up so Hughes could sleep.
It was 9 o'clock before he appeared
looking fresh and fit as he rode to the
Dacotoh hotel. Then Dr. Pittmnn had
to hurry bock to the train to bring
the throat sprayer and loosen up the
candidate's vocal chords. This job
done. Hughes held a reception in the
hotel lobby.
There were nearly 000 townspeople
and farmers from nearby counties who
marched through the line. .Many or them
mistook the luxuriant tavinl growth
sported by one of Hughes' guardians
for tho famous Hughes' whiskers and
tried desperately to shake hands. The
candidate enjoyed himself immensely
correcting the mistaken ones.

Flour Price Today $7.25 a

Keeps Prices Dodging
Chicago, Aug. 10. Advancing wheat
prices hit the American housewife to
day. IF'.our advanced fifty cents a bar

and the housewife who buys a "big

more for it than she did yesterday.

While the flour market was advanc

and fell amid excited buying and sell
ing.
Scenes In' the wheat pits were like
those of the days when big traders
sought to corner the .whole worlds

Just when things had quieted dowirket wug con(,i,i,,re(i a strong enough

had another flock of rumors, nnd pric

and down throughout the morning.
Brokers in close touch with conditions,
discounted rumors that two dollar
wheat was in sight. They said it would
stick somewhere around a dollar and
a half until something, nubody knows
what, throws another bomb into the
market.
At noon September wheat was up

ber was down 1 at 1.47, and May
down 2 at 1.55. In the early hours
M;ip jumped 3 cents from last night's

Practically the cutire region south
nnd southeast of Charleston for ninny
miles was devastated, James Arick, of
Charleston, said when he reached here
today with the first eye witness -story
of the flood. .
"We left Kingston early yesterday
and came down to Millburn," he said.
"There was a slide at Millburn and
torrents of rain caused the creek to
back the train across the bridge when
another slide hit the train behind us.
My companion and I walked to Mnhan,
IS miles away. At that place a slide
covered the truck and five gondola cars
were buried seven feet beneath dirt and
rock. The slide reached tho houses of
miners and they were destroyed along
with many houshold goods."
Death List Grown.
Charleston, W. Va., Aug. 10. Scores
of persons, reported mining early to
day as the result of tne eioudhurst tnnt
sweDt the Cabin Creek. Paint Creek and
Coal Creek districts were accounted for)
in later dispatches which greatly re
duced earlier estimates of the number
of dend.
Late estimates indicate that the toll
of dead may reach 50 and it is the be
lief that others may be dend in the
Paint Creek nnd Coal river valleys.
Fourteen bodies have been recovered
from the debris between the mouth of
Cabin Creek nnd Leewood, 10 miles up.
All except one are those o'f women and
children.
William J. McBride made his way
down the creek from Ronda to the junc
tion today and later to Charleston.
"Everything has gone," he said and
Investigation can only reveal how many
are dead. The little towns near the
mouth of the creek have beewn swept
clean.
Acres of Debris.
"Every where it is a mass of debris.
Houses, trees, mine tipples, railroad
cars and telephone poles the thrown
! together in a heap miles long and there

"Men and women who were seen
clinging perilously to houses borne
down the stream toward Ronda were
never seen to pass that point and we
fear they are now a part of the mass I
of wreckage lodged against the railroad
bridge there." v
A million feet of lumber is idled '
mountnin high at that point and it will
take days to pull it down.
The loss to the coal companies oper
ating in the Cabin Creek coal fields will
reach 2.000,090.
Five members of the family of John
I.ikeus. who lived at Giles were discov

Prices Remained Firm
mm. BM a Wfc
put trading Was Uull
New York, Aug. 10. The New York
Evening Sun financial review today
said:
Although there were indications in
the character of the early trading that
prices might move throughout the day
toward higher levels on an expanding
volume of business, general results
were disappointing to the bull traders,
particularly in respect of the amount
of outside participation in the dealings.
The advance of the day before failed
to attract a genuine public demand and
to a great extent it was this absence of
public response, together with realiz
ing sales that accounted for the heavy
tendency of quotations following tho
forenoon improvement.
Prices in the opening dealings gener
ally were at small advances from tho
nesdnv's final operations.
Although early afternoon trading ac
companied a marked falling off in ac
tivity, in most parts of the list and n
tendency to sag from the early high
points, the general undertone remained
firm with talk in the various commis
sion houses favoring still further im
provement. The expectation of a big
British loan here against American se
curities as collateral created a favor
