Fight To The Death

R. N. Walker was showing two
pairs of fine five-point deer horns
locked tightly together and in
separable. The proud and stately
owners of the antlers had met in
mortal combat and in their strug-
gle for supremacy their horns
had become interlocked and they
had no doubt died of starvation.
This is not of infrequent occur
renee, for the male deer becomes
fierce and combative during the
running season and counts his
life of little worth in case of
rivalry. This trophy was found
on Grouse creek, over in the
White Bird Station country, by
the hunting party composed of
Messrs. Walker, Campbell and
Hilbourne, who returned home
this week. -Grangeville Globe.

THE DAYS STORY
OF The WAR
Condensed Reports of Latest
Events in Europe's War, as
Given Out by the Associated
Press.

Nov. 14.-Russia has driven
the Austrians out of the towns of
Tarnow, Jaslo and Krosno in Ga
licia and the Austrians probably
now are retreating toward the
Carpathian mountains.
"The enemy has marched into
Tarnow, Jaslo and Krosno," is
the cryptic style in which Vienna
officially announces this reverse
to her arms.
Petrogrod merely announces
the taking of Krosno with heavy
losses to the Austrian rear guard.
Nothing is said of the other two
towns in the Russian official re-
port.
On the western battle front the
allies are said to have retaken
Dixmue from the Germans. This
report is unofficial and has not
been confirmed by either Paris
or London.
Fighting in the vicinity of Dix
nude and also around Ypres con-
tinues to be extremely violent,
although it slackened somewhat
as compared with previous days.
The Germans say their marines
at Neuport inflicted heavy losses
on the allies, and that they cap
tured 700 prisoners, that HOO al
lies were taken captive at Ypres,
and that heavy casualties were
inflicted by repulsing attacks a.
round scissors.
That huge sums of money will
be necessary to prosecute the
war is indicated by the British
governments notification that it
will request parliament to vote a
credit of 81, ,125, 900, 900 for ex-
penses up to March 81.
The French supplementary
credit for the month of Novem-
ber amounts to $182, 154, ,5O4, or a
daily average of $66, 900, 900.

McKinnon Up For
Embt zzlement

Allan McKinnon, for several
years agent..for the Interior Ware
house company at Cottonwood,
was yesterday placed under ar
rest by Sheriff Eimers, of Idaho
county, on a charge of embezzle-
ment, the complaining witness
being Balfour, Guthrie & Com
pany of which the Interior Ware
house company is a subsidiary
organization. The arrest was
made in Lewiston...and Mr.. Nc
Kinnon was.taken.to. o.Grangevi!le
yesterday afternoon to answer to
the charge.
The complaint alleges that ap-
proximately 81, 200 was collected
during the fall and winter of
1913 for sacks supplied farmers
of the Cottonwood section and
the money was not turned into
the company. 1t is further al
legged the shortages were discov-
cred as early as July of the pres
ent year when an agent of the
Interior Warehouse company
visited Cottonwood and in COM
pany with Mr.. McKinnon visited
a number of the farmers against
whom the books showed money
due for grain bags. 1t is stated
Mr.. McKinnon then admitted
the shortages but prosecution
was waived to give him opportu-
nifty to make good the amounts.
Later the matter was reported to
the American Surety company
which furnished the bonds for
McKinnon to the Interior Ware
house company and the prosecu-
ton was brought at this time at
the instance of the surety COM
pany.
Mr.. McKinnon was employed
by the Interior Warehouse COM
pany at Cottonwood for about
seven years, coming to the GEN.
tral Idaho country from Walla
Walla during the period R. w.
Hastings was district manager
for the company in this territory.

Alexander Cuts Out Frills

-Governor-elect Alexander has
made early use of his veto power.
He made use of it this week in
killing off the inaugural ball. He
gave out an interview in which
he expressed the wish that no in
augural ball be held in his honor.
He said he thought the plain peo-
pie of the state had other and
more serious things to think
about, and that but few of them
could enjoy such a function at
best. He suggested that those
who were able to buy silk dress
es, dress suits and other frills
that 90 with a big ball might do
we'll to practice a little self-sacri-
flee and donate to the Red Cross
society or some other charitable
institution. He said further that
he thought it bad taste to indulge
in frivolity when so many are
suffering as the result of foreign
wars.
AS a rule Mr.. Alexander's po-
sition in this matter is endorsed
here. 1t is taken to mean that
business and serious matters are
to dominate the new administra-
ton to the exclusion of every
thing else-that nothing is to be
permitted to come between the
new governor and his main object
to lower taxes and bring the
state government to a simpler
and cheaper basis. -Norah Marks
in Sundays Tribune.
