EMMETT SCORES VIC
TORY OVER VALE
Oregon High School Outclassed
in Thanksgiving Game
Score 21 to 6.

The Emmett Highs took sweet re-
venge on Vale High Thanksgiving Day
and handed the Oregon boys 81 to
package.
The day was perfect one and a
large crowd was present to witness
the struggle and cheer the home boys
to victory The Emmett boys went
into the game confident and out
classed their opponents at every point
except in the execution of forward
passes, in which Vale showed excel
lent skill and precision. In weight
the two teams seemed to be evenly
matched.
Vale won the kickoff. By series
of line bucks that were continuous
ground gamers, Emmett carried the
ball to the Vale line and Langroise
was sent across in the first quarter.
McProud kicked goal. Score 7.
In the second quarter Emmett again
showed it's ability to break the Vale
line for repeated gains and when
on the 20-yard line Scott circled the
end and raced to the second touch
down. McProud's trusty toe sent the
oval squarely over the cross bar and
the score was ID. The half ended with
the ball on Emmett's five yard line.
In the third quarter Emmett scored
another touchdown by line bucks, two
forward passes, the last of which was
caught by Rose almost on the line
and he had only to step over to add
six more to the score. McProud
kicked goal. Score 21.
In the third quarter, Vale fought
and by end runs, line
bucks and a we'll executed forward
pass forced the Emmett boys back,
then an end run put the ball over
the line for Wales only touchdown.
Goal was missed. Score for Vale 6.
The game was free from wrangling
and had enough thrills in it to keep
the spectatoes Oh edge all the time.
Henry Obermeyer was the referee.

Insanity the Plea.

That st. Clair was insane at the
time of the shooting of his wife was
outlined as the defense in the opening
statement by Judge Fremont Wood.
MIR. Wood stated that the defense
would prove that at the time of the
shooting the accused was crazed by
the desire to get possession of his
child, and had no recollection of any
facts in connection with it. He said
that if st. Clair's responsibility at
the time was established, then the of
fense committed could not be more
st. Clair's great fondness for his
child, of his wanderings after the
shooting and of his finally giving him
self up.
St. Clair testified he was born in
Italy and came to this country 13
years ago; that he first went to Den
yer where he worked as laborer, af-
terwards entering the employ of the
Utah Construction company, in whose
employ he worked for six or seven
years, and that he came to Montour
to work on the construction of the
Idaho Northern railroad, where he met
his wife. They were married at Salt
Lake in October, 1912, and detailed
the story of their frequent quarrels
and separations until they separated
finally in Spokane. He told of his
search for his baby and of the meet
ing on the road between Sweet and
Montour and that he asked to "kiss
his baby" and after reaching this part
of his narrative said his mind was
blank from there on.
Cross examination of the prisoner
was taken up this morning and was
not concluded until noon. Throughout
st. Clair reiterated that he had no
knowledge of the part he played in
the shooting, but on other matters
Herewith his mind was fair
ly clear.
This afternoon Frank Rose, Oronzo
Kathrina and John st. Clair, brother
and all fellow countrymen of the de-
fendant, Alex Cruickshank of Montour
were on the stand. Their testimony
was to the effect that Nick st. Clair's
mind was affected by his family trou-
bles and the separation from him of
his baby. AS The Index went to press,
Mrs. Wilson of Montour was on the
stand.
1t is expected the examination of
witnesses will end this afternoon and
that the arguments of counsel will be
heard this evening. The case will pro-
badly go to the jury before adjourn
ment tonipht

A Useful Machine.

Last weeks Index briefly mention
ed the new collar machine installed in
the Gem City Laundry. The boss
this week took time to look it over,
and after Mr.. Mckay had explained
the modus operandi we concluded it
is a machine that will add to the joy
of living. 1t is simple contraption.
A tiny stream of hot water is applied
to the fold of the collar as it passes
through the machine and moistens the
fabric so that it neither breaks nor
leaves ragged edge to scratch the
neck. It's fine thing and Mac says
collars need never wear out if the
wearer keeps his neck shaved and
free from grit. This brings to mind
the fact that Mr.. Mckay is gradually
undermining his plant, and it is be-
coming one of Emmett's growing in
dustries, employing seven or eight
persons and adding to the city's pay
roll

Back from Mexican Border

Lieutenant Lee o. Miles and his
brother Clark, members of Co. M. l.
N. G., arrived home Thanksgiving Day
for 30-day furlough. Mr.. Miles re-
ports that the Emmett boys are in
good health and condition, but very
anxious to see the home folks. He
does not know when they will come,
but indications are that they will
either be relieved from duty or moved
to another location. A letter receiv-
ed this week from Bernard Knipe,
however, states that he and his fellows
from here expect to start for home
December 15.

don't stop, / will kill both of you.
Mrs. st. Clair said, Put the gun in
your pocket and he did so. He said
that he was after the baby and de-
manded it several times. She said
dead than let him have it.
81 said to st. Clair, why do you
not take it to law if you want that
baby?' st. Clair started to climb
upon the wagon to get the baby, but
Mrs. st. Clair would not give it up.
He then stepped off the wagon, pull
ed his gun and stepped back upon the
wheel, fired five times and then step
ped off the wheel, and l started to
whip up the horses.
"He made an attempt to grab the
lines and l whipped him over the head
with the whip. He drew back and
drove on, but he followed US little
distance and then disappeared.
81 ran the horses all the way to
Sweet, a distance of two miles, and
called DR.. Vadney and told him that
Effie was shot, and he then took her
into the back room Of the drug store
and examined her, and it was found
that St. Clair had shot Mrs. st. Clair
five times with a 38-caliber revolver
Mr.. Beach, the Ola stage driver, ap-
peared upon the scene just before the
shooting commenced and st. Clair
called to Beach to move on, but he re-
fused. The shooting commenced about
four minutes after Beach came up.
A. Beach, the stage driver between
Montour and Ola, was the next wit
ness and described the shooting and
the events connected with it. He gave
a vivid representation of the actions
of st. Clair when the shooting took
place. Ray Ramsey, the Boise chauf-
fer who drove the car in which st.
Clair made the journey from Boise
to Horseshoe Bend, thence to the
scene of the shooting, testified next
and corroborated for the most part
tho statments of Skillings and Beach.
Other witnesses, making a total of
13 examined, testified.
The State completed its introduc-
tion of testimony yesterday afternoon,
and a recess was taken until 7 o'clock
in the evening, when Nick st. Clair
was placed upon the stand by the de-
fense.
