s Chicago. April 11.--With the re-
moNal Of maximum price restrictions
and beginning Of trade in future de-
livery contracts eased on the actual
commercial grades, the corn market
today became again a broad active
affair, and jumped considerably high
ersthan even radical bulls had pre-,
.dicted. 1T had been anticipated that
$1.50sa bushel would BE fetched for
the July option. but some transact
tionsl took place as much as" SC above
that level. The strength Of the mar.
ket was best illustrated by the fact
that at h corresponding time d yeat
ago. July stood at 1925 1-2. After
opening this morning at $1:50@1.55
July and $l.27 Ia to 1.27 1-2 May,
prices steadied around $i.5I ga July.
Oats were comparatively neglected,
and showed a lack Of support. Y Open

by a material setback all around. \

press provisions Higher prices on

eral shipping demand was slow.
Notice that spreads between the
May and July deliveries'wou1d not be

about stationary. July. however, ran
up sharply in the late dealings. The

Ward Beecher Higgins, Aged
% Years, Gave Himself Up
to the Sheriff.
TO EVADE ARMY CALL
Had Grudge Against AL Nurss,
Who Owned Hay, Claim
ing Money Due.

The problem of the incendiary fire ON
the night of the 18th was solved We'd
nesday morning when Ward Beecher
Higgins, a young man % years Of age
gave himself up to Sheriff Yates and
made q full confession of his guilt.
after which he was locked up to await
the action of the court.
Higgins is included in the next draft
call and it is presumed he would rather
be in Jail than in the army. Yesterday
morning he went before the draft board
to enquire about his registration card
at which time he admitted burning the
hay. He stated to the sheriff that
Nurss owed him for work performed
two or three years ago, and that he
was employed by the l. w. w. to do the
job, the latter statement being given no
credence by the officer.
In February, 1916 Higgins was
aa.ested on charge of assault on the
person of Melvin Basler at the latter's
cabin on the mountain south of this
city, in which he carved Melvin con-
siderably with knife. Judge Steele
sentenced Higgins to from one to two
years and served 81 months in the
penitentiary. He had also served
term before the one mentioned. He
came to this county some three months
ago after having just been released
from the state bastile and at that time
went to the draft board on matters
pertaining to his registration card He
was registered while serving his term
in the pen and gave his home as Buff
falo Wyo, where it is known he has
relatives At that time he stated he
was tired of being arrested in every
town he went to.
Charges have been prefenked against
him and he will be taken before Dis
trict Judge w. N. Scales, and on his
plea of guilty will be sentenced at once.
The penalty for arson is from one to
ten years and it is expected the judge
will deal him the limit.
After setting fire to the hay stacks
south of the city, Higgins states he
went west to the top of the White
Bird hill and then swung around to the
north and returned to Grangeyille
teaching here at very early hour and
where he was seen during the morning
hours in the neighborhood of the ware
houses. He was employed by A. X.
Wiley in the warehouse. some years
ago and on being paid off raised his
check for which offense he was ar
rested. On seeing him the morning
following the fire Mr.. Wiley notified
the sheriff's office and he has since
been under surveillance by the officers,
who have been awaiting the return
from Warren of Mr.. Nurss to ascer-
tain if he was the man who had
worked for him in 1915.
That he gave himself up to avoid
entering the army is the firm belief of
the officers He is not considered of
normal intellect and seems to be happy
in being returned to jail, having it is
said spent at least a third of his life
behind the bars.
While he has been called for service
in the army members of the draft
board stated that he would not have
been accepted, his mental condition
being against him.

FOOD "DRIVE''
IN COUNTY
STARTS
Mrs. Mathieson of Cottonwood,
County Chairman; Food Ex-
hibition Sept. 9th.

A nation wide "drive" for food con-
servation is scheduled for this winter.
This great movement should have the
fullest cooperation of the women OF
Idaho. To this end, every community
in the state is organizing under the
leadership of district chairmen.
Mrs. II. C. Mathieson of Cottonwood,
is the chairman for Idaho county, Last
Saturday representatives from d1ffer-
ent parts of the county met with her
in Cottonwood to discuss plans for To-
cal work in conservation.
We are in the midst of a great world
war. Millions of men have been with
drawn from the production of neces-
saries of life and placed in circumstan-
ces where the consumption of food and
clothing is great and costly. Millions
of other workers are producing cloth
ing and the other materials of war and
must themselves be clothed and fed.
The United States and her allies are
short of certain kinds of food supplies,
while she has an abundance or otner
kinds. She must save on some foods
by substituting others.
Teach the people that we must:
Save on meats, wheat flour, sugar
and dairy products.
The need of these concentrated foods
for our armies and those of our allies
is very great and there is world
shortage in these foods We must
use more potatoes, vegetables, fruits,
fresh, dried, canned and preserved
milk and poultry. Idaho has these in
great abundance.
On Friday, September 6, in Dream
land Hall, the ladies of Grangeville
and the vicinity will hold food con.
ference" and Hoover exhibition. The
exhibits will include all kinds OF sub
stitute breads, cakes, etc, and samples
of canned fruit, jellies, and vegetables
which comply with war conditions.
Ribbon prizes will be awarded fol
the best exhibits. A special prize will
be offered for the exhibit which in
cludes the greatest variety of preserv
ed food products.
A program is being arranged for the
afternoon. and will be published in oul
next issue.
At the close of the program, gener

His friends here seem to be rallying to
him with unstinted support.
While Mr.. Hawley was here it was
noticeable that the political activities
of one of the chief Democratic office
holders. were not so much in evidence
and the ex-governor was escorted over
the city by the staid members of the
party who he numbers among his
friends. He will receive strong sup

The State Council of Defene has had
A. G. Towley, president of the Nonpar-
tisan League, and III. +. Samuels, its
candidate for governor, ON the carpet,
figuratively speaking, because of a
statement made by Townley when
Samuels was on the platform with
him and gave it his endorsement. At

frequently calls attention to the accur-

be to reorganiZe the State Council OF

cattle dog had attacked the animal
and received the worst of the encounter
and on breaking away from the

shouted and waved thet' arms but the
cougar continued his chase until with
in few feet of the party, and then
showed very little haste in removing
himself Mr. Hunt was without a gun
and consequently the cougar escaped.
