TAKE LOOT FROM HUN

Namur, France.-Four billion dol
lars is the most conservative estimate
of the value of the war loot captured
from the German army by the Brit
ish because of the haste of the Hun
retreat.
Eight hundred barge loads, each car
rying 800 tons, and 10000 trucks held
a part of the treasure.
Some of the loads were coming to
supply the German army. Some were
cargoes taken from the allies and load
ed for shipment to Germany. But the
latter was the least part. One barge
carried 400 tons of iron bolts.
In one small area was seized 10000
tons of chicory, 100000 candles, LOO
tons of soda, 200 dynamos, 1000 farm
implements, 5000 shovels and pick
axes.
In one sale of loot 10000 stoves have
been disposed Of mostly to BelgianS
and French.
A cargo of rags was bid up to $3.50
a ton before the auctioneer discovered
what the bidders already had learned,
that the rags covered a store OF
copper.
Here is just partial list of the artf-
cles seized and now being sold by the
disposing board: Brooms, buckets,
trench mirrors, dried tripe, toilet pa
per, water bottles, hammers, lamps,
pumps, blunderbuses, carbide, beds,
spring mattresses, mousetraps, bells,
rotary pumps, wheelbarrows, harness,
mosquito netting (by the 1000 yards),
churns, oil, paint, shovels, wire cut
ters, bags, paper string, paper bags,

WILLIAMSON BUYS
PUREBRED CATTLE
MOSCOW MAN GETS SIXTEEN
FINE REGISTERED SHORTHORNS
IN MIDDLE WEST

The greatest addition to the purebred
livestock of Latah county made IN
years is that being made by N. Will
hanson of Moscow, who bought l6 head
of the very aristocrats of the middle
west on his recent trip for the pur-
nose of getting some of the best Short
horn cattle to be found. Mr. Will
hanson attended nine large sales IN
Iowa. Missouri and Illinois and got
some of the best offerings of each At
several of the sales he got the top
priced animal sold. He was accom-
panied by Carl Grief of UniontoWn,
an expert Judge of cattle, who also
bought one of the finest Shorthorn
bulls ever brought to the west. Ihe
animal bought by Mr.. Grief comes from
the famous Oakdale farm of Granger,
Mo. and is a son of the noted Villager,
one of the greatest bulls OF his tlme'
and of a Scotch imported cow The
bull is 16 months old and was Dougnt
by Mr.. Grief at private sale at
SoS~~~-'~~
a new record for any bull brought TO
the west. He will be kept at Mr.. Grlefs
farm near Uniontown, in Whitman
county, but Mr.. Williamson also ex-
poets to use him.
At Granger, Mo-, Mr. Williamson
bought the top priced animal sold, a
Shorthorn Scotch COW, with calf by /

der breeding on her dams side ana
from the famous Cruikshank strain OF

Jokers Kidnap Bride
on Wedding Night

Bridgeport, Conn. = Charles
Brownell of this town was the
victim of an ''unpracticar' joke,
in his opinion, when friends of
the young man kidnapped his
bride following the ceremony,
took her to the home of one of
the young women conspirators
and held her a prisoner until the
following morning.
Shortly after the wedding
cake had been cut an auto drew
up in front of the door and the
appearance of the bride was the
signal for action by the kidnap-
ers. She was hurried into the
machine, which sped away at
full speed. Not until the next
morning was she returned to the
disgruntled husband, who ad-
mits he failed to see the joke.

sire's side A two-year-old heifer
of the Dorothy stock, running back
several generations in this strain,
out of Sultan King, and bred to a Will
ager Shorthorn, was another of his
purchases here, for which he paid
S1200 He also got a fine heifer,
E"Flossie" coming three years old from
the Gainford Champion and Gainford
Baronet breeding, for $1,000
At the sale of Rhynas Sons & Wells,
Stockport, Iowa, Mr.. Williamson in
vested $3.50 in purebred, registered
Shorthorns, getting some of the very
best offerings at this great sale, where
$23S,0O0 worth of Shorthorns were
sold within three hours of actual SELL
ing time. Among his purchases here
were Lady Janice, with an Empress
dam, by Beauty Chief, of the Scotch
Butterfly stock, and bred to Cumber-
land Chief, for which he paid $3.50.
Victoria Violet, a COW coming four
years old, from Victoria Ruberts' Bob,
and bred to a Villager bull, was
bought fer 1915. Rosie Third, another
fine heifer was bought at this sale, for
the same price, 1915. He paid $1,000
for Bridal Augusta, a three-year-old
heifer out of Augusta Baron, soon to
have a calf Another purchase here
was Proud Emily, a handsome heifer
with breeding running back into the
best Scotch breeds, to Lord Sebastopol
and the Pride Of the Dales.
Altogether Mr.. Williamson bought
16 head at various points and they
were assembled at Stockport, Iowa,
and shipped over the Southern Pa
cific to Moscow. Carl Grief is coming
with the shipment. From
the prices paid and the breeding of
the animals it is believed the ship
ment is one of the finest ever brought
west The average price paid for the
animals is well above $1,000 per head.
"The best is none too good for the
west" said Mr.. Williamson. II be-
Iieve we can and will raise as good
5horthorn cattle here as any place in
the United States. The west has new

II attended nine big sales while
n this trip. The lowest average
rice paid at any of them was 1910,
nd the highest average price paid at
ne of these sales was 1885. The
theirs ranged between these prices, so
ou see that around $1,000 was the
