induced to grant credit by the baron s
showing him a will under which he,
the baron, inherited $250,000 from his
grandparents, to be paid to him al
Frankfort on September 20, 1912, when
he reached his thirtieth year.
When the date passed without pay
ment being made the antiquary grew
uneasy, and, according to his story,
made inquiries at Frankfort which
showed that the baron's inheritance
was encountered, and further investi-
cation showed that the baron had part
ed with the tapestries, etc, to third
party and pocketed the proceeds.
Hence the arrest.
The young baron proved to the mag
istrate that he had over $4,000 in his
pockets at the time Of his arrest and
told him his history. Born in the high
est rank, with fine fortune from his
mothers family, he had every Oppor-
tunity of becoming distinguished Of
ficer In the army.
During the A1geciras conference he
was in charge of the German diplo-
matte postbag and his future seemed
assured. Then he fell in love with an
actress (since dead and his detsrmin-
alton to marry her meant that he had
to leave the army and even abandon
his country, for he became an Austrian
citizen in order to marry.
For six years he had been living in
Paris and in those six years he had
spent $1,200,000 He was now build
ing a town house in Rue Berlioz for
Mile. D'Argent. He had three automo-
biles and 10 servants. To live in this
STYLE he pointed out to the magistrate,
required far more than the $4,000
month allowed to him by his family.
He had been forced to borrow, and
the tapestry deal was in connection
with raising money, and now people
were trying to squeeze him.
And so the affair stands for the pres
ent. 1t seems that the baron has been
more of a victim than culprit in the
affair, and the will really exists and
some of the clauses have been carried
into effect and it has been proved that
the baron was occupied with settling
with his creditors at the time of his
arrest. 1t is said also that of the
SIT 900 the baron only received $1,000,
the balance being pocketed by various
Miss Lame d'Argent, the immediate
cause of the barons prodigality, is

Rebourg, she has ap-
peared on the vaudeville stage, and is
we'll known in the world where amuse-
ment reigns. AS chatelaine of the
baron's chateau, Petit Senart, she scat
tered money without thought.
The IS servants were paid off by the
baron's secretary with gratuity OF
$40 each, and Mile. d'Argent's sister,
who remains plain Mile. Rebourg,

carried off all furniture in eight vans,

AS matter of fact Dean CARLYLE an,

AS matter of fact Dean Carlyle and
Prof. Ellington are demonstrating
that Idaho, which hasn't been consid-
cred so, is really a great dairy state.
Their efforts in the last year in behalf
of the dairy business in this state have
been great. They have also been sue
cessful. The special and successful
sale OF dairy cattle held here last sum
mer is an evidence Through the eff
forts of these two men who know good
stock, the dairymen of this section, in
fact OF the entire state, are learning
to realize the value of good herds and
are demonstrating to the satisfaction
OF their own pocketbooks the good
profits to be had all through the In
land Empire from the dairy business.
Here where we know them and their
work we appreciate Dean Carlyle and
Professor Ellington. 1t is pleasing to
Us to know that they are also appre-
ciated all over the coast

A GOOD IDEA THIS.

Such an expression of appreciation
and loyalty as the Greater Idaho re-
ception and dancing party at Eggan S
hall tonight is an asset to the town
and to the university as we'll. More
over, it is a pleasure that will be re-
membered in social annals.
Moscow owes lot to the university
and the university owes a lot to the
sturdy young fellows who compose her
fighting football team. Tonight that
feeling will be expressed in a delight
full social evening under the most aus
picious circumstances.
1t is a happy idea, this. The fact is
we should not have just one Greater
Idaho dance and quit. 1t should be an
institution. The people of the town,
the people of the university, and the
students all have common interests in
greater Idaho. They should meet
more often on common ground There
is something tonic about an affair like
this tonight. Everybody profits.

A HOPEFUL OUTLOOK.

There is something hopeful and in
spiriting in the reports from the east
ern business centers since election
From every hand come reports of con-
fidence, assurance and continuing
prosperity.
The leading financial journals and
reviews all take most hopeful view of
the situation, and it is declared that
nothing can bring on a panic unless it
be the cry of panic" Under such
conditions it is the duty of every citi-
zen to take off his coat and work hard
and loyalty for the continuance of good
business conditions.
Panics come when the people get
scared 1t is generally agreed by ex-
perts that there is nothing now to
scare them unless it is baseless cry
of hard times"

LONDON, Nov. 8.-English society
women appear to be tending toward
the simpler life and are taking a grow
ing interest in domestic science.
This movement is strikingly illus
trated by an experiment just made
by Lady Fischer, whose son, the Hon.
Oliver Brett, married Miss Heckscher,
of New York. Lady Fischer has ar
ranged courses in cookery in which
society women are eagerly enrolling
themselves for daytime classes. In
addition Lady Fischer has successfully
started series of first aid and ambu-
lance classes, where many titled wom-
en- are among the students.

LONDON, Nov. S.-Unripe peaches

by electricity.
This remarkable discovery is the re-
suit of an experiment with high-fre
quency electrical apparatus, made by
r. Thorne Baker, scientific expert.
This is how the modern wizardry oc-
Cured. A spray of electric sparks
was directed full on the surface of the
fruit. Very soon, with the sparks fly
ing off at all points of the peach. the
green skin was seen to turn to light
brown color.
The whole peach was completely
charged with electricity, and sparks

Inyents Chameleon Dyes.

PARIS, Nov. 8.-All concerned in the
question of women's dress are greatly
interested by the report that has just
come from Italy that well known
chemist, Dr. Ciamician, has discovered
an extraordinary series of dyes for fab
RIGS which change color every hour
A costume treated with one of these
dyes is, for instance, gray in the morn
ing light, but becomes a rich red at
noon. At dusk the dress turns dark
green, and by artificial light it appears
a delicate mauve
Specimens of the new chameleon
fabrics are eagerly awaited here.

would even fly out of the fruit imme-
diately any part of it's skin was touched
by the finger.
After the current had been turned off
the peach was left for few minutes
and then it was cut open. The ripen-
ing effect had penetrated almost to the
stone. The fruit was luscious and
juicy.
Il am improving on my apparatus
shortly" said Baker, " and soon it
ought to be possible for hotels and
fruiterers to purchase an apparatus
that will ripen most kinds of fruits in
a few minutes In this manner people
will be able to enjoy out-of-season
fruits at very little cost"
The cost of ripening peaches by cleo
tricity is exceedingly small.

hair loose during the day. Of course
it suits only those women whose tress-
es are naturally luxuriant, but any way
the custom is recommended to those
who wish to be up-to-date, young and
healthy. The fad was started by a
prominent society hostess residing in
Scotland, who not only wore her hair
down, but induced every woman in the
house party to follow her example.
Among them were two young girls
who became engaged during the house

A GOOD SIGN.

Woodrow Wilson as governor is one
thing, Of course; and Woodrow Wilson
as president Is another, but there are
hopeful indications in many of the gov
ernors acts that give promise of abil-
ity as an executive, and that are a
revelation to those who thought him
simply "schoolmaster" whose horizon
is bounded by four walls.
One of these is his determination to
remain governor of New Jersey until
inaugurated president.
The reason for this, the governor
states, is that he desires to be governor
during the coming session of the New
Jersey legislature in order to force the
legislature of that state to carry out
its pledges. The success of Woodrow
Wilson's reform program in New Jer-
sey before the legislature a couple of
years ago was due to his remaining on
the job, as he proposes to do now. The
senate in the legislature was opposed
become recalcitrant the governor went
before the constituencies of the legis-
lators with his plan and by the force of
public sentiment forced them into line
to carry Que those policies to which he
had been pledged in the platform upon
which he was elected.
This seems to be largely what Gov
coming session of the Legislature, and
if he is successful in so doing it will
augur well for the people of this coun-

Crow Joins in Golf Game.

LONDON, Nov. S.-A golf story
which is received with a certain
amount of skepticism, has come from
North Berwick. 1t says that Mrs. Bar
playing on the old course, had her
game interfered with by a persistently
inquisitive crow She had just made a
tee shot when the crow secured the
ball, and after flying with it some !,
lance, dropped it. The woman made
two other shots, but the crow twice re-
turned and lifted the ball after she
had played it.

IDAHO A DAIRY STATE.

Idaho isn't a dairy state. 1t should
be, but it isn't classed as such, and for
that reason the fact that Dean Carlyle
and Prof E. v. Ellington have been Sc
lected as judges of the dairy stock at
the Pacific International Dairy show at
Portland this month is the more re-
markable. The show consists of ex-
hibits from the finest herds in the Sen
tire coast region from Mexico north.

A Change Must Come.

When the special machine Repub-
lican train passed here on Tuesday
there was vulgar and unlawful
scene. enacted at the passenger depot
in which two parties took part.
There is day of reckoning coming
to the bosses Of this region. Their
high handed methods Of disregarding
law and order must cease. This
newspaper is prepared and ready at
any time to open up the whole pro-
ceedings at the proper time. When
it is begun, 1t must be done with
the consent of the people. III must
be backed and supported, not only
by the citizens of this county, but
the people of the state must come to
the rescue Personally we care
nothing for their braggadocio or
contemplate methods. We do not
propose to participate in their trou-
bles, nor do We propose to make our
ridiculous by making the
exposures alone. Tt is up to the peo-.
pie to act in this matter. The re-
gime who are continually maniplat-
ing and planning their political
methods will continue until the peo-
pie demand that they step down
and out and that will not be very
long. We hope to see it come this

Important to the People.

The most important office to be
filled by the voters Is that of circuit
judge. Upon the honesty, dignity,
and ability of the Judge depends the
safety Of hfs, liberty and property,
This great office should be considered
seriously and intelligently and the
democratic nominee should be one
whose qualifications as now present
ed will wear till November and then
will shine for eight years. The Ca
zette Is espousing no ones cause, but
it calls the attention of the voters
in the democratic primtry to the sol
emnfty of the duty about to be i'm
posed upon democrats Do the right
thing by your party and by the peo-
pie Charleston Gazette.
That is a good slogan for Wyom-
ing and Mingo county in the coming
judicial contest. We must guard
against putting boss politician on
the bench for eight years. 1t lis now
up to the people of the two counties
to look to their interest At least
let us have a man who knows the
law and will give Justice to all re-
gardless Of politics. When you mix
the judiciary and politics as it has
been done in Mingo county you are
Vlemturing upon dangerous ground so
far as the liberties of the people are
concerned

such perfection displayed among
young lady students. They had all
kinds of delicacies to serve to the
Visitors and the pleasing attention of
all connected with the school was all
that It could have been. Three
judges took up the task Of selecting
the best loaf of bread from several
They made us one of the Judges and
there is where we assumed one OF
the most intricate duties of our life
After we had examined all Of the
loayes, we readily pronounced them
all the best without the slightest hes
itation, but then the lady member Of
the committee informed us that
would never do and that we must
select one of the best Then it was
that we gave it up and left 1t to the
other two. After much discussion
on the subject we concluded to
award the prizes as follows:
First Prize: Irene White, Maude

Second Prize: Mary Lillian Nc

Really there was not much room
or decision, for 1t was all exec
