MRS, PRICE WRONCED
ATTORNEY. BELIEVES
Prosecutor Angevine Says
Woman Is Proper Person
Morally.
DANCEHALL BLAMED
Husband Accused Of Abduc-

Danced Too Much.
DANCEHALL BLAMED

County Attorney Fred Angevine has
refuted the statement of II. J. Price
Charged with kidnapping his two
small boys from his former wife, that
morally to have the custody of their
children.
Mrs. Price has been greatly wronged
by the publication of the interview
with Mr. Price, | believe said the
county prosecutor. Il have made a
thorough investigation of the matter
and have found that she is a good, hard
working woman, her friends and
neighbors testify. l am sure that she
has taken the best OF care of her chill
dren since being awarded them by the
district court at the time she secured
divorce from Price. The children
have a healthy. happy appearance, and
they We're delighted to be restored to
their mother Monday evening. The
woman was almost hystericanl as re-
suit of the abduction of her children,
and a woman such as Price attempts
to make out she is couldn't have been
so worried at their absence from her
side, or SO delighted as she was at
their return. Price was forced into an
admission Of the location of the place
to which the children had been taken.
For time il was believed he had sent
them to Seattle. But they were found
in a Missoula home.
Says Report Untrue.
1T is too bad to add to the Woman's
troubles by an attempt to blacken her
character, for | believe the Indictment
made against her in connection with
the Elite dance hall is highly Colorcd
and thoroughly untrue. Her friends are
displeased at the action taken by her
husband, and they have made loyal
pledges of the woman's good character
to me-"
Price has been in business here with
a brother, it is understood, in a cigar
store near the depot on Railroad street.
He took the children from Mrs. Price S
home. Price was arrested Sunday even
ng, but released Monday on a bond of
$50. He will have a hearing in the court
of Justice Gagnon this afternoon at
o'clock. He has entered a plea Of not
guilty to the charge Of kidnapping, ant
it is reported that he stated he haC
taken the children in order to have
his side of the matter presented il
court.

ming OF Oct. H." he said. when we
sighted the submarine. the only one
we ever saw. dead ahead. We whirled
the ship and brought the stern gun
e. bear. We had naval gunners and
the first shot struck square between
the twin periscopes and blew them TO
pieces. The sub sank and we ran
over the spot and saw a mass of bub-
bles and noted the boiling OF the
water. The sub never again showed
herself and every one knew our gun
uers had done for her.
I'VE then came along on our course
and three hours later got the shot
that finished the ship"
