whether any money was found in the
suicides room
CAPTAIN Whistler got his commits
sion in the first training camp at
Fort Riley, Kan. He fought in the
= Spanish-American war, and later saw
considerable service in the Philip
pines.
When the United States entered the
war he attempted to raise a regiment
in Kansas, and when this fell through
entered the training camp. He was
considered an efficient officer, and
was not unpopular with lis fellow
officers and his men. He was about
forty, and had a son ten years OF
age.
wornaITs statement that the robber
said, while looting the safe, 81 hate
TO do it, but I'm hard up" and the
fact that money was left scattered
about the floor, led many officers to
believe that the amount taken was
small, only enough to cover his press
ing needs.
ObsequIes Of Slain.
Arrangements for the funerals Of
the four other victims of the tragedy
had not been completed today. 1t was
expected that the body Of Mr.. Winters
would be taken to Kansas City, The
body of Carl Ohleson, a clerk in the
bank. also probably will be taken to
Kansas City. The body of John
Jewell, editor OF Trench and Camp at
Camp Funston, who was visiting in
the bank when the murders were COM
mItted. will be taken to Springfield.
No. o. H. Hills body also will be
taken to Kansas City, according to in
formation available. Hill was a clerk
in the bank.
Although the dead men were
civilians, it was said here today that
some ceremony by which the camp
might show its sympathy probably
would take place.

SPOKANE SCARED
BY BOYCOTT THREAT
FEAR OF LOSING TRADE FROM IN.
LAND EMPIRE TOWNS MAY
BRING ACTION

That Spokane is frightened over the
it's friendly attitude toward the l.
w. w. is eviednced in many ways.
This morning The StarMirror receiv-
ed a telephone call from The Chron-
icle asking if it were true that the
Latah County Protective association
had advocated the printing on all let
ter heads of merchants here, the
slogan to Boycott Spokane"
The Chronicle representative said
that drummers had brought to Spo-
kane what purported to be copy of
this slogan taken from the letter-head
of Davids' store at Moscow and SAID
the drummer had reported that such
action was being taken generally in
the Inland Empire. The Chronicle
was advised to call up Davids' which
was done and the reporter had talk
with Homer David, who assured him
that the big store had had no such
slogan printed on it's stationery but
that there is general IeeiluS dHuOIS
the merchants of the Inland Empire to
Withdraw trade from Spokane whole
sale houses unless Spokane takes
some action to rid itself of the |. w.
w. headquarters from which men are
being sent out to destroy property and
obstruct production in lines needed
for the prosecution of the war. Mr.
David made it very plain to the Spo-
kane newspaper that the attitude or
Spokane in the great fight to rid the
Inland Empire of the |. w. menace is
resented in all of the towns and the
country districts of the Inland En-
pire and that action to make Spokane
feel this resentment and disapproval
of her attitude is being seriously con-
sidered. Spokane may finally real
ize that the trade of the surrounding
country is worth more to her than the
patronage of the l. w. w. and when
she dies it is believed she will take
steps to get right with her neighbors.

It was this disturbance that caused

lPLAYLETS PLEASE
PAYING PATRONS
TREASURY OF Y. w. C.. A. is EN-
RICHED AS RESULT OF
OFFERINGS

The finished acting of Miss Camille
Mcdaniel, the personal charm of Miss
Josephine Brown and the cleverness
of Miss Ellen Waring were perhaps
the features of the two one-act play
cts given last evening in the universe
ty auditorium for the benefit of the col
lege Y. w. c. A. service flag fund.
The first playlet, THE Maker of
Dreams relates the sentimental ad-
ventures of Pierrot, played by Theo-
dore Hegge. The Dream Maker ad-
mirably carried by Will Newman,
sewers Pierrot's Pierrette, a role ad-
ritly handled by Miss Josephine Brown
of Moscow.
Sparkling reportee of unique type
made famous in Emma Dunn's sue
cessful vehicle "Old Lady 81" was the
distinguishing characteristic of the
second playlet, Joint Owners in
Spain"
The scene is laid in a home for de
cayed gentlewomen" and the parts
are rather difficult bits of character
study. Miss Camille MCDANIEL, cast
as Miss Dyer, a querulous old maid,
quite captiyated her audience and Miss
Ellen Waring, playing the part of Mrs.
Blair, got her clever lines across the
footlights in a genuinely professional
fashion. Miss bessie Hall and Miss
Tennie Johanson capably handled the
roles of Mrs. Mitchell and Mrs. Full
erton.
The Hallowell orchestra, Chicago
organization, played several appreci-
ated numbers.
The playlets were directed and
coached by DR.. G. NJ Miller, head of
the university English department,
Miss Permeal j. French and Mrs. H. II.
