GERMANS SINK FLEET IN

boats when the vessel began to
settle. While making for the
shore the boats were challenged
and called upon to surrender.
Some of them ignored the sum-
mons and were fired unon, a few
casualties resulting.
This stroke '.vas apparently an
entire surprise and the first news
reached London through a corres-
pondent, who was informed by
farmers in the neighborhood that
they had seen the German ships
sinking with their flags afloat.
The Admiralty at first denied
the report, but later confirmed it
and issued an official statement.
The German officers and crews
have been made prisoners. None
of the officials tonight would of-
fer an opinion as to how they are
to be dealt with.
The statement which was issued
by the Admiralty says:
"According to the latest reports
from Scapa Flow, all the interned
battleships and battle cruisers
have been sunk, except the battle-
ship Tiaden. which is still afloat,
Five light cruisers have been sunk
but three have been reached.
Eighteen destroyers were beached
by local tugs. Four destroyers
are still afloat. The rest of the
destroyers have sunk."
Rev. R. A. Brigham was here on
Monday from Lexington. He re-
ports a heavy rain there on Sun-
day night, but as the most of th<j

so got to inquiring. As a re-
sult it has been discovered
that the annual chigger sea-
son is in full bloom, and there
never was a better season for
the little pests, they say.
With plenty of tall grass to
thrive in, the chiggers are
chigging at everybody's an-
kles that come their way and
they chig in very large num-
bers, too. Almost every resi-
dent of Norman who has
mowed his lawn this year
has suffered thereby—from
the chiggers.
Physicians have been asked
what can be done in case of
bad chigger bites, but soda
water or a mild antiseptic is
the only relief offered. Those
who have mowed weeds in the
back yard this year have met
the native chigger in his own
element, and met him with
millions of his kinsmen.
One of the redeeming fea-
tures of chigger bites is the
short length of time they en-
dure. One to three days is
not so bad if the little red
demons will stop digging af-
ter the first day, which they
generally do. The pests seem
to have no preference, and
will hop on a slim ankle as
soon as they will on a fat one.
Even as this is being writ-
ten, we are scratching for
chiggers, and boy, believe me,
they're not the most comforta-
ble feeling at all. But they
gave the inspiration for this
story.
