Boise Man For
State Treasurer

Charles Himrod, a we'll known
retired business man and capita
list of Boise and vice president of
the Boise Artesian Hot and Cold
Water Company, will probably be
the next state treasurer Of Idaho.
His name is being seriously con-
sidered by Governor Haines for
the appointment to fill out the
unexpired term of office, or a lit
tie over two months of o. V. Al
len, defaulting state treasurer.
Mr.. Himrod was at one time
mayor of Boise. He is we'll known
throughout the state. His ap-
pointment, it is said, will be gen.
orally satisfactory, due to the fact
that he is not affiliated with any
faction or factions and while a
republican, has not been active in
politics in a way that would bring
about objection to his appoint
ment. The governor is anxious
to fill the vacancy Immediately.
If he can do so he may be able to
leave Boise for northern Idaho
and follow out his itinerary on
which there are dates that have
been literally advertised for him
to appear before large audiences.
He does not want to leave until
matters in connection with the
department are left satisfactorily.
There are still reports IN cir.
! culation about the probable re-
signation of Examiner Van Mugs
who is connected with the state
AUDITORS department, and Who as
state examiner, examines all tai;
departments, including the trca-
! sury department. 1t is said that
these reports have no Significance
so far as the examiner is con.
cerned and that possible resigna-
ton Of that official would be mere
} ly for the purpose of giving the
experts on the treasurer's books
1 and accounts a free hand in hand
ling the matter.
The examiner has a multitude
of duties, including the examina-
ton of every state auditors de-
} partment in the s<ate and that he
is not required to make a detailed
! examination of the treasury de-
4 partment, but to check the war
4 rants from time to time. The las
Z legislature changed the law max
: ing the state examiner a deput.

Michael. Toth's Sudden Death.

Michael 10th, who was committed to the Norwich state hospital by the pro- bate court at Shelton. and had been al the hospital since Aug. F, 1910, took his life Thursday by hanging himself with a wire from a pine tree in the outskirts of the grounds. The body was found about 8 o'clock Friday al : ternoon after a search had been made during the night and day when 10th did not return at the usual time or D o'clock on Thursday. He was a pa tient who had never been subject to depressed periods and had been given the parole of the grounds when he was not employed around the central dining room.
 The medical examiner. Dr. N. B. Lewis, and Coroner Franklin H. Brown were called to investigate the circum- stances in the case. On Friday after noon the body was sent to Shelton by Undertakers Cummings & Ring. 10th was born in Hungary and was S7 years old. He was employed as laborer and had a family in the old country and a brother and sister in Shelton.
 That this is only the second instance Of suicide at the hospital since it was established ten years ago speaks we'll for the vigilance and efficiency Of the mauagemept.

SIGNIFICANCE OF EUROPEAN WAR
Rev. F. O. Cunningham Applies Biblical Prophecy Modern Times Advises to Watch Turkey in the Light of Daniels Forecast the Ottoman Empire United States Not in the Area of Prophecy.

At the Central Baptist church on Sunday in the absence of the pastor, Rev. Dr. Joel B. Slocum, upon his vacation, the pulpit was filled at both services by Rev. F. O. Cunningham Of New Bedford who spoke in the eve ming to an intensely attentive co1igre- gation upon the theme, The Signifi- canoe of the European War.
 In his comment upon the war, the preacher applied the prophecies to be found in the book Of Daniel in the 1lth and f2th chapters and strongly affirm : ed his belief that the progress of events showed that they had been full filled in the history of the nations and for that reason were worthy Of ac- ceptance as indicating world events that were yet to transpire.
 Just as the physician who diagnoses cancer in his patient is not respon- sible for the progress of the disease he finds there. so God is not responsible for this war, because he has foreseen the forces working among the nations and has forecasted what they would lead to. When we realize that ten million men are under arms, that the casualties have already reached 100000 and the losses mount into the millions, we are appalled, and saddened.
 Two months ago the editors of the world would have laughed at anyone who would have prophesied that the present war would come to pass. They would have told you of the Hague tribunal, the tremendous cost of armor and armament, and the grip that finances had to prevent such colossal expenditures. But the situation now is not a theory. but fact. If the edI- toriai prophets of the present day have been shown to be wrong. how shall we now believe them in what they say as to how the war is coming out and what will come therearter?
 But the Bible has proved its right to be heard as a book of prophecy, Rev. Mir. Cunningham said, and as proof he instanced that TO years be- fore the birth of Christ an obscure prophet. Micah. foretold that Jesus was to De born in Bethlehem of Judaea and

FAIR GROUNDS HAD
 CROWDS OF SUNDAY VISITORS
Everything Ready for Big County Fair
 Plants Cattle Exhibit Arrived.

Hundreds of people visited the New London county fairgrounds at East Great Plain Sunday afternoon, and even after dark thers were people com- ing and going. It 1t doesn't rain today the fair oficers think they'll have a crowd of overflow proportions
 They worked hard Saturday. Entry Clerk Herbert F. Brown got down early and he quit late. He had ten town teams when he started in that morn ing. He got two more before the day was over,
 President Arthur D. Lathrop, the secretary, the advertising manager and Col. R. c. Plaut, of baby show acttv- ity, and other activities. got to the grounds in two automobiles Saturday afternoon just in time to see the Morton F. Plant Guernseys and Ayr shires. two bulls, several cows and a bunch of nice looking calves. unload- ing at the Salem turnpike gate. MT the president of the Norwich fair per sonaliy led the first Plant COW to the Branford Farms stalls at the old Man waring gate.
 The aerpplane in which Joe Richter will fly twice a day every day Of the noon and was taken to the grounds at
 Aviator Richter's machine did not get to the grounds in complete shape until o'clock Sunday morning put ne went promptly to work to get the air ship together by noon and was ready at in the afternoon to make a. flight Then he went up without any fuss and circled around in the air a. number of times so that he filled the first part of his contract to the satisfaction or the fair officials who now feel assured that they will show the people all the flights they have promised. Richter has a brand new French motor that seemed to work like a charm.
 The Central Labor union members will be out in force today, selling tick cts They will be on Franklin square and they will be on the New London turnpike, from Backus corner to the gate, and on Salem turnpike from the corner to the gate. They made rec ord sale last year, but they believe 1914 will beat the 1913 figures if the weather man Is decent today. Horace Johnson says he ought to be.
 There will be ample ear service to the grounds and from the grounds, from early morning until the last night of the night fair has gone into history. Supt. Anderson has studied the question closely. and he is prepared to handle an enormous crowd every day and all day, and at night.

although there was every. eonsicera- ton why Mary should have shunned that uncomfortable journey of 50 to
 70 miles from Nazareth to Bethlehem yet she took it and reached the little village of Bethlehem just in time for the fulhllment of the prophecy, while at the same time the registration de- cree Of Augustus Caesar WAS a nov Ing cause to accomplish the fulfill ment of this prophecy.
 The capture of Babylon by Cyrus was another prophecy, made by Isaiah 250 years in advance, that proved the value of Bible prophecies and in the 11th chapter of Daniel the consecu- tive history of two and a half raille- niunas Is to be seen forecasted. The conquest of Xerxes and Alexander, and the splitting up of Alexander's empire are shown and the Ottoman empire is clearly indicated. Then watch Fur key, the preacher said. and if you ind that Turkey is forced out of Europe and is placing her power between the seas and the Holy Land, you may conclude that the last act is being played. Jesus believed in the book of Daniel. and I rather stand with Jesus, said the speaker. than with the pro- fessors who do not believe in 1t. Is this the final warf I don't know, and don't say so, but what is happen ing today proves the possibility Of such a general war as is covered in the area or prophecy. The Dnl1ed otateS, now ever, does not enter into 1t. for the United States is not covered in the area Of prophecy.
 It is an awful situation and the ques- ton is not so much whether the czar or the kaiser is more responsible for the present war. The preacher said he believed it is the czar. It is for us to see that we are on the side ef God, and therefore be ye ready for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of Man cometh.
 At the morning service at the church one of the hymns used was one of which the words were written by Rev MT Cunningham. It is called Gen. tury of Missions.
