GAME
BE GREAT EVENT
DIETZ AND RADEMACHER, BOTH
NOTED STARS. PITTED AGAINST
EACH OTHER
Both Have Distinctive Systems and
the IdahO-W. $. c. Game Has
Special Interest

On Saturday, October 80, the most
hotly contested football game even
staged in the Northwest will be play
ed at Moscow, between Idaho and
Washington State College. Dope
seemingly does not point to an Idaho
victory, but as every one knows an
Idaho-W. S. c. football game is nev-
er decided on dope.
The two coaches are new to the
Northwest conference and their style
of coaching is entirely different from
anything previously seen in North
west football. 'Lonestar" Dietz, a
half bred Sioux Indian, halls from
Carlisle where he starred under Coach
Warner of Carlisle's championship
team. Rademacher of Idaho, former
of Chicago tackle and cap
tain of the All-Western Mythical elev-
en- in 1912, uses the system made fa-
nous by the wizard Stagg. A clash
between those two systems of coach
ing insures to western football fans
a chance to see football as it is play
ed by the big eastern teams.
The teams in themselves appear to
be evenly matched in regard to weight
and speed,~ although it is conceded
by critics that w. S. c. has the best
backfield and Idaho the strongest
line. Idaho averages about ia
pounds per man while the w. S. c.
average is about 176
Unusual interest is being shown be-
cause of the closeness of the number
Of victories between the two teams
during the 20 years that they have
clashed. w S. c. now stands one
game in the lead and it is the hope of
the university supporters that Idaho
will be able to even up the score.

for the alumni of both institutions and
he alumni clubs of Spokane and Lew
ston are planning to send large dele

Interested to witness the most hotly
contested football game ever played
n the Northwest and visit the Uni
-ersity of Idaho.

MEANEST TRICK

Boise News: The meanest robbery
which has been called to the attention
of employees of the Oregon Short Line
occurred at Payette Friday when
some man took from the toddling
baby of Mrs. L. F. Albert her pocket
book, which she had given the child
to play with while waiting for the
train in the depot. Mrs. Albert was
returning from Moscow and her ticket
and IS in cash was in the pocketbook.
The pocketbook was found early Sat

had been thrown after the money was
taken from it. The pocketbook was

Body Found is That Of
Wealthy Californian.

Upon hearriyal Of II. f. Behlow of
San Francisco IN the city "Wednesday.
the body found a few miles south OF
Lordsburg last Thursday morning,
was clearly identified as that Of Edgar
Behlow a wealthy civil engineer and
member Of a prominent California
family. Il. L. Belilow is a brother OF
the man.
According to examinations made by
DR.. NJ. M Crocker the death was due
to a pulmonary hemorrhaee. Mr.
BehloW had spent year In a san
a'orium IN Silver City for the benefit
of his health and was returning to
that institution when all traces OF
him we're lost. Early in October he
left a Southern Pacific train at Bowie,
Arizona, and wired to friends In Sill
yer City for a small amountof money.
That was the last that was heard OF
him until the body was found near
this city Rewards we're offered for
information leading TO the recovery
of the body I'm October and November
but we're withdrawn in December.
A peculiar incident in the affair Is
the finding of a 25.Colts automatic
revolver In rat hole near where the
body had laid by Special Otlicer l.. ID.
Walters OF the Southern Pacihc rail-
road. MIR Walters had an intuition
that il there was revolver near by
or on the curpse the rats would carry
it away. He dug down several rat
holes and at the depth of about two
feet a revolver Identical with the des-
cription OF the one carried by Behlow
was found.
Ben Williams, former Santa Fe de-
tective but DOW manaJer of detec-
tive agency in e Paso, bearing his
name. was 10 town Saturday and Sun
day on the case. He believed the
body to be that of the missing man.
The body was so far gone that 1t
was impossible to discern any bullet
holes in IL.
The body was embalmed by Robert
P. Mahan and shipped TO Los Angeles
for burial on Thursday morning.

1t is said that railroads will draw
people, but good schools will draw
railroads and build cities, then why
not have High School at least in
Lordsburg? The rich soil and beauti-
ful scenery around, the high eleva-
tion, the soft water, the unclouded
skies and perpetual sunshine, makes
Lordsburg crowning point for any
thing.

telligent people of this community
would move out and bring in more

on the light, and siablish high schools,

see LOrdsburg bloom like a rose and
