RUSS BISHOP TORTURED;
KILLED BY 8OLSHEV|K|

VLADIVOSTOK, Feb. 4. Bish-
op Hermogen of Toblosk, was tor
tured and murdered by Bolsheviki,
according to a private letter re-
ceived here. Since the early days
OF Bolshevism the bishop had
fearlessly denounced their work
and for this was forbidden to
preach.
The aged churchman defied the
Bolsheviki and in his p%reachings
displayed greater energy than yer
in condemning the soviet authori-
ties. The Bolsheviki arrested him
and took him to Ekaterinburg.
Thereupon the population of To-
bolsk province, who greatly re-
vered their old bishop, sent a dele
cation to demand his liberation.
The Czecho-Slovaks at that time
began to occupy western Siberia
and the Bolsheviki feared to pro-

KLAMATH RIVER
REGION TO BE OPENED

EUREKA, Cal, Feb. 1. = That
splendid isolation that has kept
the upper waters of the klamath
river almost as unknown as the
depths of the Amazon is to be
broken, and with it's passing the
Indian with his dugout canoe will
no longer race unobserved down
the long, swirling rapids of the
river.
Humboldt county has entered
into a partnership with the federal
government whereby 10 miles of
road are to be built into the Somes
Bar country in the northeastern
part of the county. With the
opening of this highway a passage
will be available from Siskiyou
county and automobile voyagers
through the Sacramento valley will
have a wonderful realm for adven-
ture opened to them.

An almost entire lack of roads
has enabled the Klamath river In
dian to live in primeval surround
ings until the present day, and as
a result he is one of the most in
~teresting natives to be found in
California. The wigwam on the
shore, the papoose on the Shout
ders of the squaw and the tribal
rituals handed down for genera
tions still are part of his life.
Along the majestic sweep of the
klamath there remain many little
Indian settlements where a white
man can bargain much as in the
days of old.
Some knowledge of American
history has penetrated into the
wilds of the region, one of the
most bizarre convictions among the
Indians being that George Wash
ington discovered America.

women and girls were employed
quite freely on farms all over the
state. 1t was a common sight to
see a majority of the harvest hands
in the large fields composed Of
women Women operated gang
plows and harvesters and did most
of the work in putting in crops
and cutting hay and grain. With
the return of the harvest season
next year it is likely, however, that
few women will be seen in the
various vocations attached to
ranching.
Women undoubtedly will be re-
tanned in capacities as clerks by
many of the larger corporations,

tically the same as given the men

BIG LEAGUE ACTION
SATISFIES MINORS
MORE FREEDOM FOR SMALL
CLUBS WILL RE-
SUIT

CHICAGO, Feb. A.. = Refusal
of Chairman Herman of the ma
tional baseball commission to sign
the new pact with the minor leag-
uers is no cause for alarm, accord
ing to AL r. Tearney, president of
the Three-I league and chairman
of the minor league committee
which effected the "break" with
the majors.
I'VE accepted the word of the
major leagues that they would re-
spect our contracts, players and
territorial rights, and their word
is good enough for me-" said
Chairman Tearney.
1.-THE action of the minor leagues
is a splendid thing. 1t enables us
to protect our clubs by holding
most of our good players, and
thus assure u patrons better
baseball than we could give under
the old agreement. We will con-
tinue to sell players to the majors
and buy players from them, but
we will sell to whom we please
and not be compelled to give them
up under the optional agreement
and draft.
Minor league clubs will never
be broken up in mid-season by
tales or recall of players loaned
us by the major leagues. The
minor leagues are well satisfied
with the new turn of affairs"
Chairman Tearney and his asso-
ciates will present a new agree
ment to the commission within a
month.

GIRL SCOUTS HOLD
ENTHUSIASTIC
MEETING

An enthusiastic meeting of the
Girl Scouts was held Saturday aft
ernoon with Mrs. Walter L.. Fitz-
gerald, captain of the troop, and
Miss Helen Huntley, lieutenant, in
charge, and 20 scouts present.
After a business meeting the
remainder of the afternoon was
given to drill work and marching.
Some new names were added to
the scout roll and plans were
made for spreading scout work.
The beautiful handmade lace
yoke made and donated to the
Scouts to raise money for the
Armenian relief fund by Mrs. w.
H. Parker was won by Master
James Thompson with No. IA.
The scouts sold 40 numbers at
25 cents each, making the sum of
$40, which has already been turn
ed into the Armenian fund.
The Goldfield Girl Scouts of
Troop 1 are proud of this, their
first effort to aid Suffering hui

Michigan, Helen Mantel, Margar-
ct Thompson and Claudine Jarvis,
who worked faithfully and untir-
ingly in selling numbers.

woke the peasants of .Tobolsk. They
released the bishop and started
him back to Tobolsk under escort
of Red Guard troops. A steamer
was provided and the delegation,
headed by the bishop, proceeded
triumphantly as far as Pakrovsk
village. Here they met a steamer
carrying the Czecho-Slovaks, or
White Guards. Rather than have
the bishop liberated by them, the
Red Guards decided to kill him.
The old mar was beaten and fore
ed to carry heavy burdens of am
munition during the flight of the
convoy. When he could go no
further, says the informant, his
torturers tied a rock to his feet
and threw him into the river.
The body was recovered later
by his people and given burial in

BIG SHOE BILLS
CAN Be CUT

Il will always wear shoes with Neolin
Solos," writes MIR. M. Newman of the
/. Newman Mfg. Co. of Minneapolis.
They are superior soles in every way,
waterproof, more comfortable and more
durable. After many months of wear
they remain in good condition"
MI. Newman, and millions of others,
have found that the answer to the shoe
bill problem lies in getting soles that
wear a long time-Neolin Soles.
They are scientifically made, very
tough and yet have the other qualities
that soles should have-comfort and
absolute waterproofness. Get Neolin-
soled shoes for your whole family.
They are found nearly everywhere and
in all styles. Have wor shoes re-
paired with Neolin Soles. They are
made by The Goodyear Tire & Rubber
Company, Akron, Ohio, who also make

Three Cent Fares

According to an announcement
given out in San Francisco by
the u. 5. railroad administration,
beginning April 1st, there will
be made flat passenger rate of
three cents a mile on all rail-
roads under the control of the
government. In most of the
states the rate is less than three
cents, and herein there will be
an increase to the standard rate,
but in a few western states the
rate has been four cents and in
a few isolated cases even higher,
and these will be scaled down to
three cents. The order making
the fiat rate was provided for in
General Order No. %, issued
last June, and it's effect will be
to increase railroad passenger
earnings about % per cent, be-
cause the reduction only applies
to very small per cent of the
mileage, and these roads are in
sparsely settled sections where
travel is limited, while the ma
ior portion of the mileage has
heretofore enjoyed rates as low
as two cents where travel is
always heavy.
