KILLS RUSTLER
! IN HOT FIGHT

/. LEWISTON, Idaho, Aug. A.
Through the carelessness or con-
nivance of Constable Miles Coch.
ran, w. P. Reed and a man named
Rice. both under arrest for cattle
stealing, secured arms and escaped
yesterday from Orofino. In riding
out of town they were met by
George Moor and A. ]. Sloan, two
other cattle thief suspects.
On the Pierce City trail they met
Albert Carr and Sam Craig. The
Cars were complaining witnesses
in the cattle stealing cases. The
fugitives opened fire on the boys,
who lodged behind trees. Dan
Carr, the father, came to their res
cue with a rife. He had but three
cartridges and with these he kill
ed Moore and wounded the other
two. Carr was wounded four
times, but 1t Is thought he will
recover.
The wounded outlaws escaped
on their horses and are now pur-
sued by posses. Carr had under
taken the prosecution of the cattle
thieves after the ranchers had sus-
tanned repeated losses by theft.

HOW ABOUT THE
ELEVATOR?

Eighty years old, bent and gray
and compelled to walk with cane,
Jason Whinnery, pioneer of this
county for 80 years, wanted to reg
lister so badly and vote at the fail
election for William H. Taft that
he dragged his aged limbs up the
four flights of stairs to Clerk Flem-
ming's Office.
Wiener we going to get the
elevator?" he asked the clerk, all
out of breath.
Dunno" was all the satisfaction
he got.
Everybody in town wants an ele-
vator except the Spokesman
Review. That paper has fought a
little $500 elevator at the city
hall every time it was proposed,
and for no good reason except that
the publisher never has to climb
the stairs. And councilmen gem
orally have appeared to be afraid
to authorize an elevator in the face
of that papers opposition. That
is, other councils were. Well see
how this one acts next AuguY
when the annual appropriations
are made.
1t did a naughty thing when; 1t
gave j. P. Graves franchise out
to the fairgrounds in the face OF
the Reviews opposition. 1t has a
spanking coming for that, so II
might just as we'll die for sheer
as a lamb.

ExTRAvAGANCE
WILL HOLD
Up LEVY

II estimates on what the state
tax commission will assess Spo-
kane transportation companies are
correct the total city. and county
valuation for this year will be ap.
.proximately $10O,000,O00 as against
$54 ,445,470 at the last levy.
This valuation, according to
County Assessor Galbraith, should
reduce the levy from 37.6 mills last
year to 20 mills or lower this
year.
AS the assessed valuation has
practically been doubled, however,
it would seem that nearly a so per
cent reduction in the levy should
accompany 1t and at the same time
raise the amount of money pro-
vided by the lower valuation and
higher levy.
Unless proportionate increases
have been made in the valuation
of small residence property, the
lower levy should be a blessing to
the smaller owners and effect a
more equitable distribution of taxa
ton.
The prospect of minimum levy,
however, is sadly marred by the
fact that the county commission
ers have permitted an increase Of
100000 in expenses this year over
last.
A heavy proportion of the as
sessment increase has come from
putting higher valuations on big
business property than has been
the past custom.

Special Correspondence to The Press
DENVER, Aug. 4.-The girl
Who Has Everything and the Boy
Who Has Everything now have
each other, for Evelyn Walsh, heir
ess to the $25,000,000 of Thomas
F. Walsh, her father, has welded
young Edward Beale Mclean, him

father is John r. Mclean, owner

Washington Post
Clyde Fitch once wrote a play
for Eleanor Robson called "The
Girl Who Has Everything" Miss
Walsh might nave been that girl,
for no whim of hers has ever gone
ungratified. And Mclean since
birth has had the same pampering.
He has wished and he has had.
Tom Walsh once PANIED the
tailings of a mining camp. Today
he mingles in international society.
In Paris, London and elsewhere he
has parlor suites in the finest no
tells. At Newport he has a great
home. In Washington he has an
other. In Colorado, under the
SHOWS of Pixies Peak, he has an
other.
Three years ago he had two
children-Vinson and Miss Evelyn
At Newport, Vinson was killed in
an automobile accident and the
| girl was badly injured. Always
solicitous, the millionaire cudgeled
his brain for things to do for the
invalid girl.
So a great automobile, costing
$4,000, was built especially fol
her. 1t had a tonneau big as 6
fat drawing room, with grea
scarlet couch for the girls com
fort. On swivel chairs guests could
seat themselves, and a system O

met young Mclean. She though
him a nice fellow, but impossible

girl, "but rather spoiled, becaus,
she was humored to every whim.

them. "If l can't get a good
American who wants me for my

told her frankly when she return

And her voice was colder than the
snow on the Colorado peak.
You are a very self satisfied
person." she told him later. And,
really, you have no reason to be"

smiling in irritating fashion.
Because you've never demon
strated your right to live" was
the very startling reply. "Why
don't you go to work in your

Then one day the news fioated
around exclusive circles that young
Mclean was doing a cub reporter
stunt on his fathers Washington
paper. The national conventions
came along and young Edward
went to Chicago and Denver. So
did Evelyn Walsh.
Here in Colorado, the cub report
er was a guest at Tom Walsh's
palacial country place Wolhurst
From there the announcement OF
the engagement of Edward and
Evelyn went forth and one morn
ing, 10 days later, the young lovers
ran over to Denver and were quiet

CAUSED MUCH
Loss OF LIFE
Many Houses Shaken Down
and Large Numbers Killed
and Injured in Southern
Italy.
BY Associated Press.

Rome. Dec. 2S-Southern Italy was
visited by a serious and fatal earth
quake this morning. The center of
the disturbance was in Sicily and the
greatest loss of life and property oc-
CURED in this island. The reports are
as yet incomplete but the people
everywhere were thrown into a con-
dition of panic.
At Caltanissetta, a Sicilian town of
10000 people, a number of houses
were shaken down and the inhabitants
fed for safety to the streets. Vast
crowds gathered in the parks and the
churches are filled. At Mineo, small
town 100 miles southwest of Catania,
several houses collapsed and the
scenes of panic were reported.
At Catania the docks and shore
front were overwhelmed by a tidal
wave that rolled in from the sea.
Much damage was done to the ship
ping. Details are lacking. but it is
known that several steamers were
damaged. At Catania the shocks last
ed for twenty seconds.
At Agosta, in the province of SYRIA
cuse, two churches and several houses
were demolished, but no lives were
lost. The prisoner in the local jail
made their escape and dashed through
the praying crowds on the streets for
liberty. The troops were called out
and quiet restored. There were
shocks also at Lindua .Glosa. Santa
Sayerina and Eoto, all in Sicily. The
latest report from Calabria says that
three dead and sixty wounded persons
have been removed from the ruins of
Stefanconi. Soldiers have been call
ed in to carry ON the work of succor.
The troops have been ordered also to
tear down damaged buildings in order
to minimize the danger from falling
walls.
Sixty persons are said to have sus-
tanned injuries at San Nofrio and the
population is camping out in the open
air. The troops everywhere are
engaged in the work of rescue.
