WOMAN MISSIONARY Is
IMPRISONED AS TRAITOR
She Preached In Germany Telling
Soldiers They Must Not Stay

practical application of the command.
ment, Thou shalt not kill, was SEN
fenced today by courtmartial to nine
months Imprisonment In a fortress on
the charge of attempted treason by
melting soldiers to INSTRUMENTATION.
She is "A years old.
The woman had advocated in a
speech and print the principle that
soldiers must not STAY on the Sab

not acted in an anti-German spirit,
Moreover a court physician pro-
nounced her mentally subnormal.
Otherwise the sentence probably
would have been much greater.

NATION NEEDS LINCOLNS.
Will Be Sad Day For America When II
Fails to Produce Such Men.


At public dinner in New York, in
commemoration Of Lincoln, Miss Ida
NJ. Tarbell, author of Life Of Lin
coln," spoke as follows:
II think l can say Abraham Lincoln
is the only man. living or dead, with
whor;s could have spent five years and
not known boredom.
"Lincoln was a man who never pre-
tended to be anything he really was
not. He never found time to conform
to the usages Of society. He did not
understand or care for its amenities.
He never learned to wear his clothes
properly. His trousers bagged. His
coats did not fit.
"You may remember the eminent
Massachusetts, statesman who spent an
hour with Lincoln. and the only entry
he made In his journal after their dis
cussion Of great national affairs was
that Lincoln wore yarn socks.
Lincoln always was anxious to get
things just right. Sometimes. in con-
sequence. he seemed slow to the coun-
try. but he always insisted with him
self that his acts must conform to the
moral law. You cannot conceive Of
Lincoln trifling with his conscience.
"He wanted to be sure always that
his decisions should ever stand as just
In the annals of the world and the his.
tory of human endeavor.
"There are several instances to prove
this. He was told by his supporters
he would lose an election by taking n
certain stand. He did lose. but he
said: We are right. The people win
recognize 1t by and by And they did.
and four years later he was In the
White House.
Lincoln had real goodness-not the
kind of goodness that breaches only on
Sunday. but the kind Of goodness that
reaches out and embraces all ones fel-
low men. He was the tenderest man
that ever lived. No one suffered more
than he during the awful four years Of
civil strife.
Lincoln was the best man American
institutions ever produced. 1t would
be, indeed, sad thing If our institu-
tons failed at any future great crisis
to produce such as Lincoln"

Gently found. Attached to It are a
number Of Endorsements which are
not only interesting In themselves, but
aid In disclosing the characters Of the

those turbulent times, The indorse-
ments by President Lincoln and Sec
rotary of War Stanton read as follows:
Dear stanton-Appoint this man chap
lain In the army. A. LINCOLN.
Dear Mr.. Lincoln-He Is not a preacher.
L. NJ. STANTON.
The following Endorsements are dat.
ed few months later. but come Just

Dear Stanton-He is now.

Dear Mr.. Lincoln-But there is no va
cancy. l.. NJ. STANTON.
Dear stanton-Appoint him chaplain at

The elk which are to be placed in

Fitzsimmons, assistant state game
warden, from Leroy G. Jones, state
warden. The elk will be unloaded at
Hansen. which is considered in many
respects the most convenient place for
the purpose. The matter of unloading
at Rogerson was at one time consid-
cred. The elk will be placed in a cor
raj with cattle and If they get along
we'll together will be driven out to the
basin. The animals are said to be
quite tame. MIR. F1tzsimmons says

SCHOOL BONDS VOTED
AT ELECTION SATURDAY
Several Sites Suggested But None Sc
lected-Issue Sold For Five Per Cent
Premium to Denver Firm.

The general sentiment in favor of
the school bonds, giving the impress
sion that they would certainly carry,
resulted in cutting down the number
of voters visiting the polling place at
the high school Saturday, so that only
163 votes were cast, of which all but
nine were in favor of the bonds.
The school board Is now confronted
by two matters of immediate import
ance: The arranging of preliminaries
for the sale of the bonds and the Sc
lection of a site. Arrangements have
already been made for the disposal or
the bands to J. Nj. Wright and Sons of
Denver at par at five per cent inter
est, as soon as the regularity of the
election has been established.
The question of site is being seri-
ously considered, several locations in
the vicinity of the end of Shoshone
street having been suggested Among
these are the Ashton corner, corner
near the intersection of Tenth avenue
and Blue Lakes boulevard, the cor
ner OF the Jones addition and the tri-
angle corner west of Shoshone
A few have suggested that the build
ing be erected on the same lots as
either the Bickel or the Lincoln school
and thus save the purchase price OF
the lots. The matter of site will be
determined shortly and as soon as the
prelininaries necessary for the sale
of the bonds are arranged. the con-
tract Will be let and the school built.

COUNTY ADVANCES
MONEY FOR HIGHWAY
County Commissioners and State Road
Commission Reach Agreement State
Fund Exhausted.

Twin Falls county will advance the
share of the money due from the state
needed to complete the state highway,
within it's limits, on account OF lack
of state funds to complete 1t, and Will
be reimbursed from the first state
highway funds available for the pur-
pose, as a result of an agreement
reached Friday afternoon between the
board of county commissioners and
the state highway commission, repre-
Sented by E. NJ Booth, state highway
engineer, and II. f. Cornell, his as
sistant The work to be done will, IT
is estimated, cost a total of from $12,-
600 to $4,000. partly payable by the
county. and includes the erection OF
three bridges along the highway east
of Hansen. The amount that the coun-
ty Will have to advance, Will, In the
opinion of Chairman o. +. Carlson
be in the neighborhood of from SO 900
TO $4,000 Similar arrangements are
being made with other counties in
which uncompleted parts of the state
highway are located. The state fund
is exhausted and the contractors along
the line are taking the position that
they must be paid promptly or they
Will not go ahead.
Inc shortage In tne tunuS is not due
to lack of foresight on the part of the
legislature in making the appropria-
ton, but results from the raising of
the standard of the highway, which in
creased the cost of its construction all
the way from so to 200 per cent. While
it is generally conceded that it is well
worth the extra money paid for the
better system, it drained out the avail
able funds. The commissioners here
as elsewhere, felt that it would be
poor policy to allow the road to re-
main in an unfinished condition, and
decided to make the requested tenn
porary advance.
