There are several reasons why we
are anxious to sell our goods at such

First Reason. The past season
that we have just finished we find
that we have too much winter stock
on our hands,
Second Reason.-We are going to
move in the new Scrimgeour Building
which is just being completed and
we are going to put in an entirely
different line Of goods and it takes
money to do this, SO we want to dis
pose of-our.. goods into cash money.

SELECTION NOT MADE
Members of Idaho Board Of Education
Declare Not Yet Decided on
University Head.

! That no selection of president o1
| University of Idaho was made at the
meeting of the university committee
of the state board of education, as was
announced in the StarMirror last
night, was stated this morning by
members of the board and DR.. E. o.
Sisson, commissioner of education.
1t was stated that remarks made to
representative of the Star Mirror
was a misinterpretation of the facts.
1t is said that Dr.. Sisson had made a
report of his investigation while in
the east seeking university head but
that the board members here collec-
lively had not expressed choice from
the number of possible appointees
suggested in the report.
1t was asserted today that while the
members of the board might be per-
sonally favorable to some one or more
of those mentioned for the post, that
no direct or certain selection had been
made and that it was not certain at
this time that the board would make
the selection at it's January meeting
in Boise.

Wife of Brother of Chris Hagan Goes
to Norway on Visit.

Many friends of Chris Hagan of the
Hagan G Gushing company will remem.
Der Mr. Hagan's youngest brother
Martin Hagan whom he brought here
! in 1894 from Europe, the young man
attending public school here at that
time for a period of six months when
he decided to shift for himself. He
was practically penniless at that time
but during the Intervening years has
been successful and is now one of
the leading hotel men of New York
City.
Mr.. Hagan has just received a THE
News" published in Greater New York
December 12, which gives an account
of the departure for Norway of Mrs.
Martin Hagan and two-year-old daugh-
ter which says:
Mrs. Martin Hagan, the wife of the
well-known hotel proprietor at 4Sth
street and Third avenue, sailed Tues
day for Norway with her handsome
blue-eyed, stwo-year-old daughter
Edith. Mrs. Hagan is expected to re-
main with her father on the other

Never before was such large crowd
of friends on hand to give a pleasant
bon voyage to a person as assembled
Tuesday afternoon at the pier, foot
of 35th street, Brooklyn. Among the
vast audience were prominent poll
relatives and scores of friends
from Newark, Jersey City, Manhat-

ing the hundreds from Brooklyn. Her
stateroom on the main deck looked
like a fairy garden of cut flowers,
American beauties, pink and white
without saying anything
about the numerous punches of vio-
cts, which were in abundance, all
sent by relatives and friends. The
ship was late in sailing owing to the
arge number of friends of Mr.. and

COMMON PEOPLE
TO GET BENEFITS
PARCEL POST SYSTEM HAS REV.
OLUTIONIZED THE RATE CARD
AND COST is LOW.
Though Express Rates We're Lower
Than Former Mail Rates, Parcel
Post Cuts 1t Down to Minimum.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.-Real cash,
the hard earned sort, will get Mr.. Com
mon People, his wife and their chill
dren this year through the operations
of one of Uncle Sans departments.
A brief comparison of what it costs to
send gift packages by express or mail
last year with the rates possible under
the parcel post system this year shows
how the government can aid when it
is permitted to. In no instance are
| the express rates reduced less than one
duction is far more And the money
which last year went to the express
companies, this year goes to the people
themselves. Say for instance, that you
live in Baltimore, and want TO senc
four pounds of candy to someone in
New York as Christmas remem-
brance. Last year, it would have cost
you, mailed, one cent an ounce. 1t
would have cost you siXty-four cents
to send four pounds by mail. By eX-
press it would have cost you for the
same distance, forty cents-the ex-
pressage from Baltimore to New York
for anything weighing less than five
pounds. By expressing it, then, you
would have save "a cents last year.
r,,, i1,,. off &c
year. The express rate is the same as
before-40 cents for packages weighing
up to five pounds. You turn to the
postal rates. You find a difference in
rate, and it is difference that is going
to save you and everyone else a lot
of money this Christmas, for you don't |
have to pay GA cent rate, as last year
when you mailed it, and you don't have |
to pay 40 cent rate, as you did when |
you expressed it last year. You pay |
just eight cents, just one eighth of what
it cost you before to send four pounds,
five cents for the first pound and one
cent a pound for every additional
pound. What is more, this year you
can send five pounds or fifty pounds,
whereas last year you couldn't per-
suade any postmaster in the country to
send a package if it weighed a fraction
over four pounds.
To express a four pound box of
candy from st. Paul to New York
would cost rs cents, more than to have
nailed it last year. Now, by mailing
he package, you save yourself just SO
cents, a little more than half of the
rate. Next year, thanks to the
sweeping reductions in parcel post
'ates, the same package will cost only
hirty-three cents, saving OF forty :
wo cents over the express rate. The
lew parcel post rates will become af-
ective New Years day.

MOSCOW HIGH WINS
Local Team Bests Visitors From Guild
esac % to 9-StiIlinger Star.

In one of the fastest basketball
games ever played on the local 1ool
the Moscow high school five defeated
the high school team from Culdesac
last night by the score of 23 to 8. The
game was far from as one-sided,
however, as the score would indicate.
The first half of the contest belonged
to the visitors and ended to in their
favor.
The M. H. S. team gathered them
selves together early in the second pc
riod and did some brilliant work,
running up 19 points to the visitors
3. For the locals Hill at guard, Still
niger at center and Corney at guards
did some excellent work. Hunter
went in at forward at the opening of
the second half and though in poor
condition due to an injury which he
received in practice several days ago
played a good game. Stillinger's
basket tossing on free throws was
feature of the contest Out of chances
he dropped the ball through the ring
times.

most time Of any that has been heard

defendant was that number of the
sales and trades were procured
through fraud.
This case was the last one which
will be tried by jury at the present
session of the district court But few
matters were brought before the court
today, the only one of any i IMPORT be-
