Some Fine Entertainments Given---Valedictory
Tonight---Large Classes Of Graduates and
Their Plans For the Future.
THE BAccALAUREATE SERVICE

Sunday morning the auditorium
was packed to hear the Baccalaure-
ate address by DR.. Brannon OF the
university at Moscow. The invoca-
tion was by Rev. Mr.. Barnstable, and
the anthem by the Baptist choir.
Representative P. G. Johnston read
the scriptural lesson and Mrs. J. A..
Dygert rendered solo. The service
was very pleasing throughout, and
the address was something out Of the
ordinary. It was talk with or to
the friends who assembled to listen.
1t was an address in plain, simpl
English, not too long and not too
short, carrying with 1t clear-cut
visions to apply to the work of today
and tomorrow and the future. DR..
Brannon is the president of Idaho's
university, and he left with the peo-
pie an impression that their greatest
educational institution is in good
hands.

solo, LEAD Kindly Light" by Miss
Alton Hyde, and violin solo by Miss

was also the solo by Mrs. L. b.
Dustin. A reading by Miss Alice
Roberts, one of Kipling's gems, a
vocal solo by R. H. Clayton and a
vocal duet by the Simmons sisters,
all delightfully."- rendedred, complet-
ed the individual parts of the SER

NEW THEORY IN
 BOMB PLOT CASE
Missiles Used By Fay Said to be Simi- lar to Those Which Caused
 Fires On Ships.


 New York, Oct. 29.-Secret service men assigned to the cases of Robert Fay, the confessed bomb-plotter, and four others charged with conspiracy in planning to disable ships laden with war munitions for the allies, worked on a report today that the bombs used by Fay were similar to those which had caused fires on certain transatlantic ships last summer.
 Two circumstances drew the atten- tion of Secret service men to the Fay case. One was that the fires on the ships were caused by chlorate of potash, the same material which Fay says he used in preparing bombs to attach to ships rudders and propci- lers.
 Another circumstance was that sev- eral other ships which discovered fires aboard had sailed from piers i'll the Hudson river, not far from the boat house at Weehawken, N. J., where Fay, with Walter L. Scholtz, his brother ih law, kept a motor boat and explosives.
 The details obtained of the fires on the sugar ships are being com pared by assistants of United States District Attorney Marshall with ths disclosures made by Fay's confession to determine what connection, if any the present conspiracy had with thu attempt to destroy sugar ships.
