| Ann NruUr, Mtch-.- November 10
Displaying again that impregnabls de-
Tense and that powerful smashing It
tack that has made Ii unbeatable this
season, Michigan's wonderful ptgsktn
artists triumphed over 30. SAIL Tor the
first time In four years AZ to {.
The game was hardly the exhibition
of football it promised to be. The
Wolverines were superior In all de-
partments and Cornell could make
nothing through Yosts froutiarsnen
except in the second quarter and near
the close of the game when the red
men seemed to take on a spirit pf re-
tuvenation. Failing to get In by the
rushing methods. Doc Sharp's proteges
resorted to a shower of forward passes.
But two of Their chucks yielded any
substantial gains.
Weston was the brightest Michigan
luminary. repeating his long. distance
runs which have given him the name
of the Human Eel"
Every one of Iosts backs gained
through the line and around ahe ends
consistently. Only twice were they
held for any extent OF time.
Cornells biggest yardages came via
the aerial route when Hoffmans tai
ented toe and leather connected, but
the hofsts were of little use since Wes-
ton ran most of them back half way
or three quarters of the distance.
Michigan's sol ID interference
helped its backs advance considerable.
The Reds displayed Il lot Of worth
while taekling. but their blocking
"duked." They seemed to lack the
teamwork that Yost has developed In
his forces and though they put up
plucky scrap they were beaten from
the start.

MCNEIL TO ANSWER
CHARGE OF ASSAULT

Hugh McNiel was arraigned in the
probate court last week on a charge
of assault with a deadly weapon up
on William Twitchell on June 10,
and was bound over for trial in the
district court. According to Twit-
chell and Blaine Fansler, the two
witnesses examined, NcNiel became
angered when Twitchell rode up to
him at his sheep camp west of Fort
Hall and accusing him of false al
legations in regard to a borrowed
team, called him liar in so many
words. McNiel then ran over to his
rife and threatened to shoot Twit-
chell, who consented, to save trouble,
to annul his provocative statement.
The two had quarreled over Nc
Niel's refusal to help pull Twitchell's
wagon out OF mud hole in the road,
and this refusal was the outcome Of
the borrowed team affair which oc-
Cured some time previously, when
Twitchell delayed returning the out
fit and was charged with not feed
ing the horses enough.
Both Twitchell and McNiel have
warm supporters in the controversy.
Farley Price and Charlie Fisher, en-
ployers of McNiel, stand sponsor for
him with enthusiasm, and Twit-
chell's partner, Peterson. backs him
up. The date of trial has not been
set.

whiskers and licks 1t off as he runs
away. It kills him.

INDIAN DANCE

The Indians during the last week
have been holding tribal dance in
celebration of the fourth of July, on
the reservation about eight miles
south of town. A great many Black
foot people have taken advantage of
this unusual dance and have motored
down to witness the ceremonies. The
costumes, altho not as beautiful as
on some previous occasions, the
wierd music and the Indian s
customs and interest were all sources
of great pleasure and curiousity to
the spectators.

Neil Boyle Home
Is Burglariized
Sunday Morning

The home Of Neil F. Boyle, which
was unlocked, was gone thru by one
or more intruders Sunday morning
at church time. The family had
gone away at about 10 o'clock and
returned at 11.2O. They found every
room disarranged. bureau drawers
opened, and several small metal
boxes pried open with presumably
the ice pick. Evidently the thief or
thieves wanted only high class loot,
for a number Of pieces Of jewelry
remained untouched, and the only
articles missed were two diamond
rings and small sum of money.
The sheriff and deputies made sew
eral arrests of suspicious persons
about the town. '..

FINGERS CUT OFF
BRANDING LAST CALF

Merlin Giles, in the employ of the
Coumerilhs at Springfield, suffered
the painful removal of two of his
fingers while branding calves last
Thursday afternoon. He caught his
left, hand in a lariat rope attached
to the animal and the jerk came
just so as to pinch the first three
fingers, two of which he lost. 1t
seemed more unfortunate because
they were branding the last calf and
it was almost supper time. DR.. Nit
chell was called to attend to the in
Jury.

CARRANzA SAYS
THAT MEXICO
WILL Be NEUTRAL

Mexico City, April 17.-General
Carranza, in his address to the new
congress last night, defined Mexico's
position as neutral nation as follows:
with respect to the gigantic war
which is being sustained by two
groups of European nations and into
which the United States, Cuba and
Brazil have now entered, the govern
ment under my charge sent to the neu-
trail nations February IL, with the
greatest impartiality, an offer of
plan to end the war and create univer-
sal peace. The note suggested meas
ures which would serve to prevent
wars in the future. Mexico will en-
deavor to continue to follow policy
Of the most rigorous and strictest neu-
trality in the European conflict. / am
able to assure you that actual rela-
lions with all the peoples on earth are
friendly"
General Carranza devoted much at
tention to the resumption of diplomat
ic relations with the United States. He
referred to the occupation of Vera
Cruz as 'lamentable incident" After
an account of the Villa raid on Column
bus, and the clashes with American
troops at Carrizal and Matamoras, he
said:
"This can be considered as a time of
war for the United States, for hostil.
tiles had commenced. Nevertheless,
the government continued to treat the
situation through diplomatic channels
and secured in the shortest possible
time the retirement of the American
forces. Actually both countries were
inspired with the most sincere desire
to continue the cordial relations which
previously existed. ! am obliged to
inform congress that the American
government, Notwithstanding it's de-
sire to encourage friendship with us,
has not raised the embargo on arms
and ammunition consigned to this gov
eminent"

HOW AMERICAN GUN Grew
OVERLOOKED FIRST CHANCE
Dirty Little Ship Was Planting
Barrels of Fish, In Course
Of United States Liner.

Just as the American liner st. Louis
was entering the last days journey
and beginning again her bursts of
speed through the zone off Nantucket
on the return voyage of an armed
American slip to Europe one of the
stokers dropped out entirely. He tried
to stand the pace and protested against
giving up, but they pulled him away
from the furnaces, and few hours
later he died. And a few hours after
that, at Easter Sunday noon, there
were a few mumbled words over a
black box and an American flag, and
then a splash i'll the sea.
1--WE have threaded the twisted paths
of death, and here we are said Cap
tain Hartley in telling of the trip
Then he told of the disappointment of
the naval gun crews in not having a
chance to try American guns on Ger
man steel.
'aThree hours iii the submarine zone
and no fritZies yet said one blue
jacket disgustedly as tile ship neared
the Irish coast.
The gunner missed "a chance at the
finest target of the eighteen day voy-
age the following morning when a
dirty little iron steamer, with rust all
over her disreputable sides and tat
tered and soiled Norwegian flag at her
ttaffrail, a picture of commercial limo
cence, sailed diagonally across the
course Of the st. Louis as the armed
American liner moved up to the en-
trance of the MerSey.
Inside this innocent little smack and
on her greasy decks were barrels of
fish that the captain said were to be
taken to Cardiff. But the captain was
planting his fish in the muddy wa
tiers of the Mersey. where no trawlers
or mine SweeperS or cargo ships could
see them. Half an hour after the st.
Louis had passed up the channel a
trawler was blown up by one of 100
mines strewn in the four square miles
by the rusty tramp, and half an hour
after that 5000 ton cargo boat, the
Kelvinhead. struck another one of the
Norwegian fish" and went down.
When the ST. Louis reached the bar
of the Mersey she found that her pilot
had failed to appear to take the ship
into the river. and the liner had to
steam up and down in this mined re-
gion for seven hours while waiting for
the tide to rise SO that she could get
over the bar. 4 few hours later Brit
ish trawlers and mine sweepers picked
up eighty-two mines in the waters
where she had been taking her morn
ing cruise.
