NAY Be WANDERING IN FIELDS
Relatives After Long Search Appeal to
the Police to Aid Them in Efforts to
Find Woman-Has Disappeared on
former Occasions, May be Demented,

The police of the city have been
asked TO make an effort to find some
trace of Mrs. Martha Smith, SO years
OF age, who disappeared from her home
on Erie street week ago last Satur-
day afternoon and of whom no trace
has been secured. Mrs. Smith had
worked at the Cooper Underwear COM
pany for some time but on last Satur-
day afternoon she declared that she did
not feel like working and remained at
her home. She left the house lust after
three O'Clock declaring that she was
going down town for shopping trip
and since that time nothing has been
heard or seen of her. Miss Anna
Smith, daughter of the missing woman.
appealed to the police for aid in the
search THIS morning. The girl declared
that her mother had suffered from a
wanderlust which had caused her to
leave her home on several occasions in
the past, but on such occasions the wo-
man had returned without being sought
and after being absent for short time.
Her continued absence has caused her
relatives to believe that she may have
met with an accident or that she is
wandering about the country and may
have suffered from exposure.
R2efere nne9ling 20 sJ 5.ee the
re&s,.ises u she Woman with the aid of
her friends made search about tne
city but found no one who had seen
the woman since she disappeared from
her home. Mrs. Smith had only a small
sum of money when she left home and
it is not thought that she could have
taken any long trip on a train or cleo
trio car. The police assert that the
woman has suffered from a mental all
ment. Telephone messages were sent
to various parts of this and surround
ing counties this morning asking that
an effort be made to find some trace of
the woman and every deputy sheriff
in the county has been asked to join
in the search.
Mrs. Smith had shown no signs of
being respondent and the members of
her family do not think that there is
any reason to believe that she would
commit suicide. Their opinion is that
she has wandered far from home and
has been unable to fnd her way back
to Kenosha. They fear that during the
stormy weather Of the past few days
she may have become exhausted and
fallen in some out of the way place.
The continued absence of the woman
has caused profound sensation among
eople of the neighborhood and nearly
al of them are aiding in The search.
that is being made for her.

Routine business took up the time of
the members Of the county board at the
two sessions held today and there was
nothing of an exciting nature before
the board. In fact the present session
promises to furnish little of an excit-
ing nature The board will take up
the report of the highway commission

AT the session Of the board this
morning County Treasurer Har an
presented his annual report showing a
balance OF approximately $4,000 in
all the funds in his hands. The report
showed that the treasurer handled
more than 100000 during the year.
Y Joseph e. Dalton, assessor of in

would speak for themselves The re-
port was referred to the committee on
assessment of which Supervisor John
Hewog of Soners, is the chairman. In
speaking of the annual assessment,
Mr.. Herzog declared that it was has
opinion that the committee in equalizs

the towns would follow the plan Of
former years and strike an average be-
tween the assessments returned by the
city and town assessors and the valua-
tion as placed by the assessor of in
comes acting in the capacity of super
visor of assessments. 1t is thought
that such an equalization would prove
entirely satisfactory to the members
OF the board, both from the city and
from the towns and that the value so
placed would be one fai to all.
owe are not going to make the
county tax any higher than is neces-
sary," said Chairman Herzog, H'and
the matter will be given most careful
attention on the part of the commit
tee on assessments. The big increase
in the state tax is something that we
can do nothing with, but it will be our
effort to have the county tax as low
as possible.''
This afternoon the annual reports of
the county clerk and the county agent
were presented. These showed expen-
ditures in the two offices for the year
were about the same as in preceding
years.

the visit was unnecessary and an un.
necessary expense. The board voted ia
accept the invitation and insisted in the
chairman making the trip. Mr.. Yule
declared that he was undecided on the
matter, but that he might decide to GO
Racine with the board tomorrow.
Supervisor Link made his report for
the committee which had made three
visits to the asylum. The report de-
clared that the institution had been
found in excellent condition at each
visit.
This afternoon the claims before the

various committees and the routine
work of auditing the claims is now

soldiers to the strike zone. A plenti-
full supply of ammunition and two
field guns with shrapnel arrived to,
day for the use of the militia
While there were several outbreaks
in various parts of the mining coun-
try, the chief disturbance that set the
troops in motion was an assault on
deputy sheriffs stationed at the mines
of the Calumet and Hecla company to
protect property. None of the mines
has attempted to operate, but the
strikers seemed to object to the pres
ence of the deputies.
About 300 strikers armed with steel
drills, clubs and stones and a few with
firearms, which they fired in the air,
marched to the No. Conglomerate
shaft and stripped the deputies of
stars and repeated the performance
at the Hecla branch mines.
The deputies could not offer much
resistance as the strikers outnumbered
them, but there were many fights
after the stars had been collected and
several persons were beaten severely.
A few men were taken to hospitals.

Fully three-fourths of the students
who were enrolled were registered in

training. 1T is very evident" said
Professor Soulen, that not more
than so per cent of our students at
the summer session came here be-
cause the law required them to have
summer school training in order to
secure teachers certificates or to re-
new their old ones. More than half
of the students already have unexpir-
ed certificates that need not be renew
ed for some time. This is plainly an
evidence that they were not forced
to attend the summer school," Con-
tinuing, Professor Soulen said, "A
large percent of the students secured
their first inspiration this summer to
get further college training and many
have declared their intention of at
tending the regular university session
next year. Some have given up teach
ing for few years and will register
at the opening OF the fall term"

SECOND ANNUAL j. OF l. SUMNER
SCHOOL CLOSES SUCCESSFUL SESSION

The second annual summer session
at the University of Idaho closed TO-
day and most of the 201 students have
returned to their homes all over the
state. Practically every county in
Idaho was represented at the suIOmer
school besides almost a dozen other
states, students coming from as far
east as Connecticut. There were stu
dents here from Kansas, Minnesota
Wisconsin, Colorado, Iowa, Washing
ton, Oregon, South Dakota and Mon
tana. The registration came within
one student of reaching that at last
summers session when the universi-
ty and the Lewiston State Normal
combined their forces. This year each
institution conducted separate
school.
The enrolment at the summer ses-
sion just ended is especially remark
able when it is remembered that it
was not until the April meeting of the
to conduct the school. All of the ad-
vertising bulletins and announcements
had to be sent out after that date.
Furthermore Professor Soulen, direo-
tor of the summer school, was in
south Idaho on high school inspec
tion tour until the latter part of April
nd in to
material at all out until about the
middle of May. This left little more
than five weeks in which to advertise
and arouse an interest in the work that
the summer school was going to Of
fer The advertising was done en-
tirely by Professor Soulen and he is
especially deserving of much credit
for the success of the session.
One thing which perhaps more than
any other attracted students this sum-
mer was the fact that the entire uni
versity faculty was placed at tiieir
disposal Courses were offered under
the same type of instruction that was
available in the regular term. The
regular university faculty was even
supplemented in several departments
in order that the summer students
might get as good training as could be
offered at any regular teach
ers' normal The department of edu-
cation in particular offered courses by
some of the best outside instructors
and lecturers that could be found in
the country.
Another feature of the instruction at |
the varsity summer session was pre-
sented in the regular weekly lectures |
Not week passed but that offered |
from one to three or four lectures by |
such speakers as Professor w. H.

There are many evidences of salts
faction on the part of the students
! No less than two score of students
came into Professor Soulen's office
this morning to express their apprecia-
tion of the work that the summer
session has offered and of the treat
ment that has been accorded them
during their stay in Moscow.
The students are enthusiastic not
only over the treatment which they re-
ceived at the hands of the university
faculty but over the hospitality of the
citizens, especially the women and the
business men, Of the city Il am voic-
ing the sentiment of the entire sum-
mer school," said Professor Soulen,
when | express appreciation to the
citizens of Moscow for their enthus-
iastic cooperation in making this ses-
sion so highly successful" But the
summer school has meant more than
hard earnest work. 1t has been made Il
neither feature being emphasized at
the expense Of the other. Not a week

has not been marked by some special
social function. There have been the

ton by the university, and the cham
ber of commerce and ladies' auxiliary.
Athletics too have not been excluded.
The baseball game between the stu
dents and the faculty a few weeks
back will be long remembered. The
varsity tennis courts have been open
to the summer students, and free
access to the gymnasium has been
available at all times.
Already Professor Soulen is look
ing forward to the largest summer
school in the west next year. With
every student sent from Moscow this
year satisfied with the work offered
at the varsity, next summers ses-
sion, thinks Professor Soulen, will
scarcely need catalog advertising, and
students will come of their own ac-
cord without being sought. The
best possible advertising, said Pro-
fessor Soulen, that the university
could hope for is to send out over
200 enthusiastic teachers into all sec
tions of the state and trust them to
boost"
Professor Soulen will finish up the |
business of the summer session tonight |
and will leave tomorrow for the east |
where he will join his family for a |
visit during the remainder of the sum-
mer.

Big Railway Scheme Cancelled.
PEKING, July 25.-The charter
granted to DR.. Sun Vat Sen for the
construction of a network of railways
in China has been cancelled. Only one
contract has been concluded under
this charter, that with an English
firm providing for the construction OF
a line from Canton to Chungking-Fu,
which it is believed the government
will recognize.
Chinese railways was foremost in DR..
Sun Vat Sens program for the mod
ernization of China. 1t commanded
the support of the Peking government
and involved a great extension of the
privileges of the foreigners in the
country and an immense increase in
China's foreign trade. DR.. Sun was
used in September, 1912, to establish
a railway corporation to carry out
system of national railways covering
territory 10000 miles in extent.
Mixed Chinese and foreign COM
panies were to be granted concessions
throughout China for a period OF
about 40 years, after which time the
lines were to revert to China. Similar
were to be given to for
eigners for the intermediate districts.
President Yuan Shi Kai was to allow
DR.. Sun $4,000 monthly to promote
his scheme.

MORE REVENUE
FOR THE FARMERS

WASHINGTON, July 25.-Removal
of the restrictions which prevent the
farmer from utilizing has waste fruits
and vegetables to manufacture dena-
tured alcohol on his property may soon
be accomplished. Several congress
men today informally discussed plans
for changing governmental rules
which now prohibit the manufacture of
this fuel. The secretary of the trea-
sury has been approached on the sub
ject and it is his opinion that no new
law is required to permit the farmers
to operate distillery for the produc-
ton of alcohol to be used as a fuel.
He said today that merely aborgation
present rule is all that is needed
"All of the many wormy potatoes,
apples and other farm products that
are unfit for sale can be turned ints
alcohol which is more economical
for fuel than gasoline" said Senator
Lane, of Oregon today Senator Lane
is heading the movement to have are
rule abrogated. in Germany" he con-
tinued, they raise potatoes for the
special purpose of distilling them. To
be permitted to do this would mean
not only much cheaper fuel for the
American farmer, but also new
source of revenue, for he could readily
find market for the alcohol he did
not use."
