DEATH CAME THIS MORNING
Leon Humphries Passed Away After
Illness of Long Standing.

Death claimed another pioneer oi
the northwest this morning at the In.
land Empire hospital in Moscow when
Leon Humphries, who has been in de-
clining health for the past year, passed
away after an illness of six weeks
His family was at his bedside when the
end came.
Mr.. Humphries was well known in
Moscow having been engaged in farm
ing near this city since 1907, coming
here from The Dalles, Or, where he
had lived a number of years.
The deceased was native of Col
orado and was so years of age. He
resided in California during his early
life, later going to Oregon. Subse-
quently he came to this section but
only recently had sold his farm prop
erty and was preparing to remove to
county, Or, where he had pur-
chased extensive farm interests. His
illness prevented, and after being ta-
ken to the hospital he failed to rally.
He is survived by widow and three
sons. The funeral will occur Thurs
lay morning at 10 o'clock from the
Methodist church, Rev. Robert Warn
sr officiating, and interment will be
made in the Moscow cemetery.

sition as president of the University
of Idaho on February 1, 1913 to accept
the post as head of the Canadian in
stitution.
The invitation extended DR.. Carlyle
to attend the Inauguration of President
MacLean has marked significance
The two presidents were classmates
at the University of Toronto, both re-
ceiving degrees from that institution
in 1892. Later in 1905 both Dr. Car
lyle and Mr.. MacLean were awarded
advanced degrees by Colorado institu-
tions, the former receiving his MS.
degree from the Colorado Agricultural
college and the latter his doctors de-
gree from the University of Colorado.
When Dr. MacLean resigned his po-
sition as president of the University
of Idaho last February DR.. Carlyle
was Immediately appointed to succeed
him. DR.. MacLean came to the Uni
versity of Idaho in 1900 and served
for II years as president of the irstitu-
ton. His many friends in Moscow
will be pleased to learn of the high
esteem in which he is held by the large
circle of friends whom he has made at
the Winnipeg university.

The petition urges the pardon on
the grounds that the violation was
technical; that O'Neil was the only
member of the bank to be tried and
convicted; that he has been confined
in Jail sufficient length of time to
have served the ends of justice; that
he has become penniless through his
