TRIO WHO ROBBED HUB STORE
AND HUGO GARAGE CAPTURED

Dyer is we'll known here. He has
been in trouble before. He spent some
time in the Latah county Jail, having been
arrested on complaint of Whitman coun-
ty officers for alleged participation in
boot-legging case. Governor Alex
ander refused to grant a requisition for
him and he was released but later started
to Spokane and was caught in WASH
ington and sent to the refornatory at
Monroe He was only recently released
on parol. The men viii be tried in Whit
man county for the burglary of the two
stores at Uniontown. If not convicted
there they will be brought here on requi-
sition, if Governor Alexander will issue
the requisition, and tried for the two
burglaries in Moscow
A. Fl. Olson, manager Of the Hub
store, went to Colfax yesterday evening
and had a short talk with Babcock, who
freely talked of their crimes and told
in detail what they had done He was
wearing one Of the suits stolen from the
Hub store, and it was badly soiled Only
two shirts and pair of trousers that
had not been used will be recovered the
other clothing being ruined. Mr.. Olson
says that Babcock talked without reserve
and told how they had jinlnied the rear
door, stole the suits, which they donned
inside the ~store, and then went out on
the street and met Dyer and with his
help robbed the garage, taking the best
car they found in it.
In conversation with Deputy Sheriff
William Cole, at Colfax, who made the
arrest, The Star Mirror e0orter was

strategic points north and northeast O.

In this fighting the allied troops drove

on past the village of Beugneux and ar
rived before the villages of Cramoiselle

The general advance was about two
miles and 900 Germans were made pris-
oner
The most important gain, however
was on the upper western point of the
"V" southeast of Fere. Here the village
of Cierges and Meuniere wood were
taken, a maneuver which places the
Germans at the bottom of the 'V" al

avenue of escape, by an enfilading fire.
Through the capture of the Meuniere
wood the width of the 'V" from the
fringes of the forest of Rotingny, on
the east. has been cut down relatively to
four miles.
As has been the case during the last
week, the Germans contested stubbornly
the advance of the allied troops, but to
no avail Since the battle of the Marine

NO CESSATION OF
!. WAR PREPARATION
AMERICAN DEFENSE SOCIETY
URGES CONTIUED PREPARA-
TION FOR WAR

The immediate necessity for pro-
vidng legislation for the enrolling
and training without cessation of ad-
dtional men to be sent to France after
the draft becomes exhausted, and for
seeing that there is no break in con-
tinuing. our war preparation was
pointed out in letter written by the
American Defense Society to Sena-
tor James M. Wadsworth, Jr., refer
ring to his recent request in the SEN
ate that congress provide Immediately
for the further drafting of men to
enlarge our present army after Sep
tember 18th, in accordance with the
presidents address in which he ad-
vocated not even ceasing at five mil
lion men. The letter is signed by
Mr.. Charles Stewart Dawson, chair
man of the society's board of trust
ees, reads:
"On behalf of the American De-
Tense Society will you present in the
senate it's respectful request that leg
islation be Immediately passed pro-
viding for the enrolment and train
ing without cessation Of additional
men until the number in the armies
of the United States equals total
of five millions.
In this connection we respectfully
call to the attention of the senate of
the United States that the president
has publicly advocated not even ceas-
ing at that figure, but that even that
figure cannot be attained in time to
be of effective use unless the prelim-
mary steps inherent to preparedness
be taken steadily and persistently.
The presidents address if not sup
plemented by congressional action
will become empty words and the
responsibility will rest upon congress
alone."
According to Mr.. Dawson the ces-
sation Of the training and enrolling
of men to be sent to France would
be serious error, as every day or
weeks delay means that same
amount of delay in placing the men
now in training on the firing line
nine months from now, as according
to military figures it takes about
that amount of time to summon
man to camp, train him, send him to
France and get him in shape to go
to the front line trenches. The pro-
viding of no men to be drawn after
11th means time lost at the
front. at is the earnest hope of the
American Defense Society,"" said Mr..
Dawson, that the army without
limit will not be fixed definitely and
finally at three million four hundred
and fifty thousand men as it will be
when class one becomes exhausted in
and if there is no pro-
vision made for the immediate calling
of additional men,"

the fact that the latter have been retreat

Position of Money
Health is the first value and wealth
is the second. Money is said to be the
root of all evil, but it may be also the.
source of great good, if it is rightly used.
Here, again, we must learn the use of
these values if we would live in right
way. Plenty of money may lead man
to success or to failure, according to how
he looks at it. If he covets it for itself
and for himself, he grows narrow, selfish
and timid; he constantly fears he will
lose his money-this is one of the tests
of whether he has the right valuation of !.
it. If he wants the money for the work
he can do with, the worth while things
that can be accomplished through it. then
he has the right valuation. The old idea
was that wealth was purely a private
affair of the individual; now we know
that it is national affair. Too much
money may be jNst as harmful as dire
poverty, which leads not only to a
starved body but 10 starved mind as
