Wales U-boats "got" two out Of a con-
voy Of seven steamships. The Oronzo
went down in II minutes after she was
struck, and Van Epps and other ~"
men lost all their baggage. They were
picked up by a torpedo-boat destroyer
and landed at Hollyhead, Wales.
In Front Line.
In southern and middle Alsace, Van
Epps was in the frst-line trenches and
at st. Mihiel, when the drive opened,
he became a stretcher bearer after his
supplies ran out. Getting word to
shift to the Argonne, he travelled all
night by train, on trucks and afoot,
and spent the next three weeks Sleep
ing in shell holes and trenches when
he was not at work.
At Madeleine farm, on October 10,
Van Epps and Thomas +. Hadley Of
Iowa, another Y. M. @. A. man, set up
shop in an old barn. All but three Of
the twenty-five ~" workers went back
to get supplies. The barn had been
under shell fire for several days. but
Van Epps and Hadley decided it was
good enough to sleep in. They built
a bed of boxes Of jam, with a tub Of
chewing tobacco for a pillow and lay
down.
Half a mile back, an American bat
terry was hammering the Germans, and
two German airsplanes came over look
ing for the position. They let 60 two
bombs which. landed on each side Of
the barn. Soon came a third, which
struck the roof, bringing down a mass
of rafters and beams and scattering
shrapnel. A splinter was driven
through the calf of one of Hadley's
legs and a piece Of shell tore through
both Of Van Epps' thighs.
After dressing stations and field hos
pitfalls had finished with them they
spent half a day in an ambulance and
then were put aboard a French hos
pital train, where they remained an
other two days. One Of these days was
Sunday, so Van Epps, at the sugges-
ton Of some Of the doughboys, put
on" a service, conducting it propped
up In his stretcher.

Boise, Iadho.-Idaho has completed
its legislative session, with the dis
tinction Of having the most ~reactionary
record Of any state in the Union.
OF 40 states that have adopted the

yield to the influence of the water

and to vote to go back to the corrupt
convention method of selecting candi.

ers admitted, in IN attempt to kill the
Nonpartisan league.
Idaho also established a state con.
stabulary to punish union labor, which
lined up with the farmers at the last
election.
The legislature took a fiat stand
against permanent peace through the
League of Nations. It passed a res
olution denouncing the League of Ma
tfons and tried to make President Will
sons work at the peace conference
more difficult by declaring, in this res.
olution, that President Wilson does not
represent the American people.

Of farmers organizations is made in
a bill amending the criminal syndical-

of criminal syndicalism is advocated.
This would mean that If interests op-
posed to ar organization Of farmers
or working men could send in agents
to their meetings and If these agents
should advocate anything that could
be construed as criminal syndicalism"
at n Of these meetings., it would
give the anti-farmer, anti-labor gang
a chance to prosecute every member of
the organization for a felony.
In striking contrast to North Dafo-
ta's generous provisions for returned
soldiers, the Idaho legislature passed
a. bill to allow counties. with, state.

ABOUT THE STARS
Cancer! lThe Crab.l

The first summer constellation in
the Zodias is Cancer, very incon-
sp.cicus. but universally known by the
Ancients from Babylon to Peru. This
is another indication that there may
have been a migration to the western
world in prehistoric times. Cancer,
represented as a crab, a crayfish or a
lobster. but always a slow moving
creature is supposed to indicate the
APPARENT slow motion Of the sun while
in that constellation. 1t is chiefly
noted for the great naked eye cluster

GER in which Christ was born. In.
English astronomy it is more often
called the Bee Hive" Galileo was the

CRIME AND THE MICRO
SCOPE.

- HE claim is made by Uni
D versity of California pro-
fessor that the day will
come when a microanalysist-
one who analyses by use of
a microscope-will be used by
every progressive police de-
partment. He has much more
to say about the use of So
called scientific methods in
criminal detection.
With all due respect for the
professor let us cherish the
hope that the police will not lay
aside the time honored methods
of criminal capture until the
new method is fully tried and
proven. The microscope may
be good but a jury will always
desire direct evidence. Science
might land the moral horse
thief but it is no crime to harbor
a desire. The offence consists
in commission and the task of
the sheriff is to bag the man
who really took the mule or
robbed the safe, as the case
may be.
There is story told of a
man who was robbed of his
watch and the criminal was
caught in the act. A police
man was called but he refused
to judge by appearances. He
was of a scientific turn and
proceeded to feel the bumps on
the head of the suspect. He
found no evidence of a criminal
nature. He then examined the
Uranium of the complaining
witness and found bumps that
aroused suspicion.
If the microanalysist should
act in such fashion there would
be great field for his endeavor
but law enforcement, it may be
feared, would suffer.

80 ECENT investigations by
SN the Department of Agri-
~ culture disclose that the
United States has relatively
larger reserves of livestock
than any other country in the
world. In respect to swine, this
country is easily first, but holds
second place in the number of
sheep and of cattle.
1t is estimated that there are
approximately $50, 900, 90 0
swine in the world. OF these
considerably more than a third
are in this country. There are
probably 47,O00,000 head of
cattle and about 500,000,000
head of sheep in all Europe,
Asia, Africa, Australia, North
and South America and the is
lands of the seas.
Although swine are less nu-
merous than cattle or sheep in
the world at large they are
more plentiful than either of
the other cases of livestock in
the United States. There are
more hogs in this country than
in all its ten nearest competi-
tors combined. Australia leads
the world in the number of
sheep, and India takes first
place in point of cattle.
