LEGISLATURE REFUSED
TO MOVE UNIVERSITY

Boise barracks as the central site for
all educational institutions Of the state
of Idaho, including the University OF
Idaho now located at Moscow!
This is in brief the substance of a
memorial to congress introduced in the
state senate by Senator Edwin M. Pug
ing the press reports that there is a
possibility Boise barracks may be
abandoned, lost no time in attempting
to place the legislature on record,
especially in view of the fact he intro
duced and had passed resolution yes
terday providing for the Capitalization
of all state institutions. An attempt to
secure suspension Of the rules to pass
the memorial was lost.
The Pugmire resolution petitioning
congress for the Boise barracks was as
follows:
"To the senate and house of repre-
sentatives of the United States in con-
gress assembled:
Your memorialists, the legislature
of the state of Idaho, respectfully rep
resent: that,

A SYSTEM OF SAVING
Woman Assessors in Homes of Spokane

SPOKANE Feb. 2-Glen B. Creigh-
ton, assessor of Spokane county, has
appointed seven women to handle
household assessments in Spokane this
spring. They will begin work early
in March at $50 a month, the same as
is paid to men. Forty-two men have
been appointed for this city. 1t is like
1y that a number of women will be
named deputy assessors for the IS
incorporated towns in this county.
This is the first time that women have
been called upon to share in this work
with men. Mr.. Creighton says his APP
pointees are married women of good
business ability and he predicts they
will do the work in a satisfactory way.
"If they do as we'll as we expect" he
added, 81 see no reason why they
should not have equal chances with
men in this kind of work" Mrs D.
B. Hirschfield, the first woman ap-
pointed, probably will be chief deputy.
The others are: Mrs. Lucille Van Ness,
Mrs. L. M. Donaldson, Mrs. H. Golden,
Mrs. Mary A. WEIGH, Mrs. Emma Nc
Clellan and Mrs. M. G. Plough.

For several minutes she stood near
the information bureau, apparently
listening to the rapid fire of answers
from the lips of the busy clerks. But
when Menninger asked her whether
she was interested, she turned upon
him with an expressionless face and
ter greedily and said she had forgotten
to ask for a drink on the train since
it left Marble Hill. The sheriff placed
her on Burlington train o'clock
for the trip to Chillicothe.

Then the girl crushed his head with a

She was exonerated at preliminary
hearing, but a subsequent court order
sentenced her to the Girls Industrial
School.

Eight days ago today Mart Foster
committed suicide. Within a few hours
the facts were published in the Daily
Star-Mirror. This was eight days ago,
and yet the man who is satisfied with a
weekly paper waits eight days before
he reads this story. Today the story
of Mart Foster appears for the first
time in the weekly papers of Latah
county Eight days stale and forgotten
by the man or the woman who read it
the day it happened. Is daily paper
what this community wants, or is a
weekly newspaper good enough? If
news is worth anything it must be
available before it becomes ancient

ENSLAVED CHILD TELLS
MOST TRAGIC STORY

ST. LOUIS, Feb. 2.-From an Irol
Mountain train at the Union Station
the other night shambled the grOtesqu
figure of girl. "Stolid and stunned
was written upon her face, her blue
eyes were lusterless and her form was
bowed as if under weight From be-
meath a faded red veil struggled ravel
ings of rusty red hair. Her dress, Of
red and white checked calico, had beer
made for a woman and dragged about
her feet, already hampered by clumsy
brogans.
She was Marie Bauman, 15-year-old
slayer of Philip Duncan, a farmer near
Marble Hill, Mo-, and was on her way
in the custody of Sheriff Menninger
to the Girls Industrial Home at Chill
icothe. Since her 18th year, the trial
showed, she had been enslaved by Dun
can, her betrayer On December 81
she attempted to poison him, and then
fractured his skull with three-pound
hammer as he lay in bed.
Only twice she smiled in the two
hours while waiting for her train. A
reporter dropped penny in a slot
machine to get a drinking cup for her,
and she laughed in childish amusement
at the device, which she never had
from her pocket bearing photograph
of herself, and smiled at it with a sort
of coquetry The smile enlivened her
blank, freckled face as if by magic.
She became uncannily animated
when speaking of her crime, the only
subject she did not receive with the
phlegm of a thing of wood.
