KNIGHTS TEMPLAR BALL

Was Social Success and Much En-
jOyed.
The third annual ball of Temple
commandery was given at the Hotel
Idaho Wednesday evening and PROV
ed to be one of the most enjoyable
society events of the year. All Sir
knights appeared in full dress uni
form and the grand march was led
by the commander Of the temple, j.
M. Elder and his wife, followed by
about rs knights and ladies. There
were many handsome gowns display
ed by the ladies which, taken In con-
nection with the snowy uniforms Of
the knights, made a very brilliant
display. The dance was given in the
spacious dining room.
The luncheon was served in the
private dining room from 1920 to
o'clock and consisted Of the usual
Thanksgiving turkey and many other
delicacies which were much enjoyed,
the informal method of serving prov
ing a most pleasing innovation. The
decorations consisted of palms and
evergreens neatly arranged.
Music was furnished by the Occur
d'Alene orchestra to the satisfaction
of those who participated in the
dance.
The proposed auctioning OF of the
bachelor knights was postponed until
a later date on the promise of the
bachelors to accept the first propos-
al made before the close Of the year
and with this understanding It is ex.
pected that several will be able to
join the ranks of the benedicts be.
fore the end of December.
There were a number Of guests
present from Spokane and Other
places.

strIetiy speaking. there u ne such
thing IS an electoral college as the
term h ordinarily accepted. Each
state has its own electoral college aud
tlxea It's own mode OF appointing is
members, the national congress deter
mining when they shall b chosen and
the date when they shall cast their
votes. At present there Ia no casting
of votes In the usual sense. for that
function has been performed by the
national conventions which nominated
the candidates for president and vice
president.
the members Of the electoral college
are chosen by popular vote, and their
number in each state h equal 10 the
number OF Representatives sent by the
state to congress. They are required
10 meet on the same day at the several
state eapitols and vote BY ballot. They
are not expected to vote as . unit nor
10 meet for the purpose Of declaring
result already decided by others.
In point Of fact they do vote ~ a
unit, and for this reason the present
system Is sometimes spoken Of a.
eumbrous and useless. The national
convention names it's party's choice.
and the electors are nominated and
elected to record that voice in the way
required by the highest law Of the
land.
Contingencies may arise when the
Individual status or attitude OF an
elector would be important. The state
eeFtlnes the electoral college, deter
mining all controversies and contests
regarding the appointment Of It's own
presidential electors. II any state Il

Burdett & Co. and when he went to Boston last
Wednesday with his family he told Mr.. Vose he
might sleep in his house at White Plains until
Mrs Brown and her children came to New York

is the opinion of Coroner Wesendanger that Mr..
Vose killed himself Thursday evening, as
that was the last time he was seen alive
Last Thursday evening Mr.. Vose was seen sit
ting at the window of the bedroom in which he
ended his life. He alone in the house Mr..
Vose planned to sail on Friday night for Boston

Mrs Vose became alarmed and telegraphed E. Q.
Silver president of the publishing company. and
word was sent TO White Plains to look for the
missing man.
Alderman Arthur Holland and Harry Hanlil
ton secretary of the White Plains Bank, who
live near the Brown residence, climbed on the
roof of the veranda early yesterday morning and
found Mr.. Vose's body lying on the bed in pool
of blood. CIutched in his hand was revolver
which belonged to Mr.. Brown
Both Mr.. Silver and DR.. Robert H Fose,
brother Of the dead man, who went TO White
Plains yesterday, told the coroner that there
was absolutely no reason for Mr.. Vose ending
his life 1t was learned that MI. Vose's father
and mother died a few months ago and since
then he had suffered from insomnia Mr.. Vose
was forty-five years old. He was graduated
from Amherst College twentyfour years ago.
