pending appeals before district
boards from county or local
boards, thereby placing the reg
istrants, under the draft law, eX-
actly where they were before
summoned for physical eXamina-
ton. This order is said to be
based on the grounds that the
department desires to- establish
the status of drafted men uncalled

is to go into effect next month.
Official notification was also re-
ceiVed to the effect that ~ more
Idaho registrants included in the
first draft and modified at
American Lake, had been re-
jected because of physical dis
qualifications at Camp Lewis.
The order from the provost
marshal general is transmitted to
lAdiutast General Moody and by
him forwarded to district anc

/ form:

C. F. Clapp of Portland, Ore
was accidentally killed Tuesday
afternoon when load of lumber,
upon which he was riding broke
through what is known as the
Bennett bridge, about - miles
below this city on the county
road. The accident occurred at
200 o'clock and the body was
brought to this city "Wednesday
morning and taken to the Mul-
cahy undertaking parlors, where
it was prepared for shipment to
Portland, where interment will
be made.
Mr.. Clapp had spent most of
the summer visiting his son-in-
law and daughter, Mr.. and Mrs.
C. H. Garland, at their ranch
down the river. Tuesday after
noon Mr.. Clapp and Mr.. Garland
we're on their way home with a
load of lumber from the Lisk
mill. Shortly before they reached
the bridge Mr.. Clapp suggested
to Mr.. Garland, who was driving
the team, that they change places
on the load so he could handle
the brake, Mr.. Garland contnu-
ing to drive. They did so and
this fact alone saved Mr.. Car
lands life.
The bridge, which was built
by bomesteaders, has about
RErty foot span supported by
stringers. When the load was
nearly in the center of the bridge
one of the stringers broke anC
the wagon turned completely
over into the ravine below, droT
of about six feet. Mr.. Garland
who was on the high side, man
aged to throw himself clear anC
ESCAPED without injury but Mr.
Clapp was caught beneath thu
wagon. the entire load falling up
on him. It is thought deatl
was instantaneous, as his fore
head rested on a rock and thu
back of his skull was fractured.
Dr.. Bennett, who resides nea
there. was the first one to reac'
the scene of the accident and
was some little time before h
and Mr.. GARLAND succeeded i
extricating Mr.. Clapp. The lum
Der was firmly bound onto tn
wagon and it was necessary t
take the load entirely apart be
fore they could reach the bod!
When they did so they found lif
was extinct.
Mr.. Clapp was a widower, abou
sixty-three years of age. Hi
home was in Portland but he ha
been visiting his son-in-law an
daughter here for some time. M

lat the Wallace meeting, where
the war income saX law passed
