from his wife for several months.
About week ago, Sheriff Seaman
said Lebaudy visited Phoenix Lodge

home, but Lebaudy, returning at
about $50 tonight .eluded the guard
and entered the home.
His body, pierced by bullet was
found at the foot of the grand stair
case of the house. A black grin lay
beside the body.
The home, where the shooting oc-
cured, is within 900 feet OF THE

Foreign Minister PiChon Says
He Opposes Any Recognition
of the "Criminal Regime of
the SovietS," +"
WOULD GIVE LIE TO
THE POWER OF RIGHT
Other NationaIities of Russia
Can Be Admitted to Confer
ence to Present Their Claims
for Adjustment.

Paris. Jan. 1.-THE British govern
ment recently submitted to France a
proposition involving an effort to OBJ
tain a truce in Russia which, if sue
cessful, would have led to the admis-
SIGN of delegates of the Russian So
Wet government to the peace confer
ence, according to a statement made
today by Stephen Pichon, the French
foreign minister. The foreign minister
declares in his statement the opposi-
ton of the French government TO any
recognition whatever. The criminal
regime of the Bolsheviki," he insists,
does not entitle them to recognition
as regular, government and France
was resolved TO continue treating the
soviet organization as an enemy.
The statement, which is over the
signature of the foreign minister,
reads as follows
ION January S, 1919, the British
embassy sent me British proposition
which also was sent to Rome, Wash
ington and Toxic, suggesting the send
ing of q message to the government
of the soviets at Moscow, to The gov
ernments of General Kolchak at
Omsk, General Denikine at Ekaterin-
odar and Nicholas Tschaikowsky at
Archangel, and also to all the other
governments constituted by the differ
ent Russian nationalities.
These messages would invite all
these governments and all Russian
parties, to cease hostilities, violence
apd reprisals and establish peace both
tafsf1sA eaeif otiief SssfiG With tiie Il
boring states. This truce would be re-
quested for the duration of the peace
conference, e'of the ends of which
is to re-establish peace in Russia and
the neighboring countries and bring
the desired succor to the suffering
populations. In case the various Rus
sian governments, including that of
the soviets, should comply with this
invitation, they would be permitted to
send delegates to the peace confer
ence. While rendering full homage to
the generous spirit of universal recon-
ciliation with which the British gov
ernment was inspired in making this
proposition, the French government is
unable to give it's approval to such a
suggestion, which fails TO take into
account the principles which have not
ceased to dominate its policy and that
of the powers in Russia.
The criminal regime of the Boil
sheviki, which does Sot represent in
any degree that of a democratic gov
ernment or furnish any possibility
whatever of developing into a govern
ment, since it is supported solely by
the lowest passions of anarchial op-

QUICK TO TAKE HINT

After all's said and done, I believe
those Germans took the idea of scut-
Ting their ships from the expressions
made by some of the officials of the
United States. A little while ago
there was q great argument made
that all the warships be taken out in
to- the deepest portion of the Allan
tic and there sunk. It was declared
that twas the only way" Remember
it? Well, those Teutons thought
they'd save the cost of transportation
Yet follow out the main suggestion.
Some years ago in New York there
was a row at the evening perform
ance of a largely attended theatrical
event. The rumpus happened in the
upper balcony, and cries of Throw
him overt" were heard throughout
the house. To throw the man over
meant the injury of some who were
sixty feet below. A charming actress,
realiziig what it meant, stepped to
the footlights, raised her hand and
when silence Immediately prevailed,
said in her sweet way: Please
don't, gentlemen! Don't throw him
over! Kill him where he Isl" Make
