BEN BAKER HAS SERIOUS
ACCIDENT.

Ben Baker, while running a new feed
mill which he recently purchased at
the home Of his neighbor, ]. f. Lester,
had his right hand so seriously man
gled that 1t was thought for a time
that amputation would be necessary.
Ben was in a hurry and had reached in
next to the rollers to tighten a bolt
without stopping the machine, when
the cloth glove he wore was caught
and the hand was drawn into the ma
chinery. The whole inside of the hand
was torn loose from the heel of hand
to the fingers, the finger nails were
all pulled off, while the thumb and sew
eral of the fingers were broken and
the back of the hand mutilated. DIR.
Stockton, who was called, replaced the
palm of the hand and stitched 1t fast
and set the fingers. Ben underwent the
ordeal like a soldier. never batting an
eye. He is now in town where the
wound can be easier attended to. II
Is thought he may yet have pretty
useful hand out of the remains.

por. there has never been anything be-

Is being shown in the Globes plano
contest
1t will be noticed that number of
lew candidates are manifesting remark
able strength, having forged to the
front from the very bottom rung OK
the ladder, and are now challenging the
original leaders.
This goes to establish the claim that
in a contest of this kind there should
be no such thing as disbursement al
lowed to enter the mind OF the con-
testant who happens to get behind, for
they are likely to lead in the very next
report If they continue to work with
energy. This is a case of where "con-

The piano Is to be given you, and
what you have to do is rustic, rustic

Another thing to be constantly borne
in mind is that there are EIGHT

of the amusements of the youth of
the community. The youth in city
are as much a part Of that city as
anyone else and they have just as
good a claim upon the constitutional
guarantee made to each American citi-

the pursuit of happiness. For the
same reason that the community should
provide adequate school privileges for
its youth, 1t should also provide ade-
quate privileges for their happiness.

more parks. more well-equipped play

tion of thoroughly trained directors all
the year around. OF course, the small
city cannot provide such extensive ar
rangements because of the expense,
nevertheless 1t has this problem to solve
and 1t is just as real and pressing al
though not quite so extensive. 1t
Is largely because Grangeville has
made no provision for her youths pleas
referred to occurred. But we are not
helpless as a city in this matter. We
cannot follow in the footsteps of the

I would suggest as a beginning that a

WILL PLAY COTTONWOOD HERE
FRIDAY.

Coach Robinson announces that a
game has been arranged for next Fri
day night (tomorrow) between the To-
cal high school basket ball team and
the Cottonwood team, at the gymnas-
ium at this place. This will be the
first public game the local team has
played this season, and the public is
urged to come out and witness this
initial effort of our youngsters, and see
what kind of an accounting they give
of themselves. The Cottonwood team,
1t is understood, has already engaged
in several contests, and as a result
now wears a number of scalps at its
belt as a reward of its prowess. The
local boys say they absolutely refuse
to furnish any further adornments for
the visitors.

WANT APLACE
FOR YOUTHS
TO RESORT
Revs. Bush and Gornall Take
Steps to Improve Our
Local Conditions.

Following a line of action which had
been pretty well talked over and di-
gested before hand, Rev. H. e. Bush
of the Episcopal church. ably seconded
by Rev. r. e. Gornall, Of the Federat-
ed church, appeared before the Com
mercial club at the regular Wednesday
luncheon this week, and presented the
claims of the youth of this community
for consideration by that body.
Mr.. Bush set forth the fact that the
youths of Grangeville have no place
of amusement or recreation where they
can meet and consort together in mat
ters of common interest, and as a re-
suit they have resorted to the pool
rooms in violation of the state law,
and for this they are punished; or else
they seek some back room or out of
the way place where they play cards,
and having no restrictions thrown about
them. they often go beyond the limit
of legitimate amusements. To obviate
this, he advocates the securing of the
old school building, and after putting
it into proper shape, to organize the
boys into something like a Y. M. C.
A. and then furnish them with the
means and the inducement for working
out their own social, moral and physi-
cal salvation under the direction and
supervision of some competent leader.
free from the drawbacks which natural
ly surround them in the public resorts.
from which the law prohibits them, or
from the too seclusive "hole in the
walr' to which some have been driven
in seeking the association of kindred
spirits. He would maintain the organ
ization by membership fees and public
subscription.
Rev. Gornall made a brief but ring
ing address favoring the movement and
setting forth some of the benefits that
would come not only to the boys, but
to the community at large from such
action. His remarks were roundly ap-
plauded.
The Commercial club by unanimous
action voted to lead off in the good
work, and to that end a committee
composed of Rev. Bush, Mayor Sims
and w. w. Brown. was appointed to
investigate conditions and make recon-
mendations at the next Wednesday
meeting.
This Is assuredly move in the right
direction, and the Globe takes pleas
ure in adding a word of commendation
to the many already spoken In favor of
the movement, and to bespeak the
. hearty cooperation and support of our
citizens in the establishment of such
a boys "hold out" as mentioned above.
We can all afford to lift a little to

office Of one of the Justices of Peace
and found there beside the Judge, the

The cause of this gathering was the

room had allowed these young men. whit

80 CASES
Sensational Hye Case to Be
Among First Called
Before Court.

The next term of the district court
in idaho county convenes at the court
house on Monday, February l. accord
ing to an order issued last week by
Judge Edgar c. Steele.
The court calendar for the coming
term shows that over eighty cases will
come up for trial during the term
and indications are that a great vol
ume of court and jury business will be
handled. OF the eighty three cases now
listed for trial, eight are criminal cases.
The Hye murder case, in which Frank
Hye, the Elk City Sites stage man,
is charged with the murder of his wife,
Alma Hye, and Hugh Kennedy. will
probably be one of the first cases
brought before the court and this trial
promises 80 be one of the most sensa-
tional and interesting issues ever heard
by an Idaho county jury. Another
murder case, in which II. ]. Smith is
charged with having killed Joe Marcus,
will also come up for trial at the COM
ing session.
Judge Steele's order. fixing the terms
of court in this judicial district for
the year 1914, is as follows:
Idaho county. February 1 and Sep
tember 80.
Lewis county, March s and Septem-
Der 27.

decree.
Score: Mr. Dan Cupid 81. Mr.. D..
Vorce %.
For the purposes of comparison it
may be stated that this is equivalent
to one divorce out of every four mar
riage licenses in the year.
Deiving into the records further we
learn that in 1913 Dan was responsible
for about 106 permits for matrimonial
bliss, while Mr.. d. Vorce blasted fond
dreams Of happiness in % instances,
the 1913 record showing that number
Of divorce actions.
So, therefore. Dan had about an aver
