Hunting License.

According 10 the tenets OF the new
hunting laws for the State, q list OF
which has just been sent out, the reg.
ulations are considerably different this
year from what they have been in the
past, in that this year every person
who is entitled to hunt must take out
a license from the county clerk and the
fee for such license is Sl.00. These
licenses are all that is needed by
resident OF the State, while the license
for those who are nonresident is
$1,000. Last year there was State
license which cost $500, but this was
eliminated from the law by the last
session Of the Legislature, and the
one license. which costs Sl.oO, is all
that is needed for any section OF he
State by q resident.
So long as man gets permission
from flle owner OF the land on which
he desires to hunt, gil he has TO do Is
have the license which forperly cost
nothing for resident.

Light Draws Bug From Ear.

A woman's "fool notion" worked to
relieve her husband OF intense pain
after doctors and reighbors had ex-
hausted themselves trying to force a
bug to crawl out OF his ear. Frank
Ramey, of Hillsboro, H., drove his
wife to the home Of her parents near
Donnellson for visit While he was
tinkering with the automobile a bug
crawled in his ear. He tried to pici
it out, but only drove it into the inner
ear. All OF the staple family remedies
were tried without avail.
Two physicians were likewise unsuc-
cessful, when il suddenly occurred to
the suffering mans wife that all bugs
seemed to be attracted by light, and
she suggested that light be held to
his ear to see il it would coax the bug
out. The doctors smiled indnlgently,
but allowed her to hold an electric
fashlight against her husbands ear,
and out came the bug.

gruesome murder stories ever re-
corded is told in dispatches from

arrested John Apfelbeeck, 16-year-
old youth.
For some time neighbors had been
complaining of an odor coming from

explanation one day, and "bad
meat" the next. The odor grew
more and more obnoxious. and when
young Apfelbeeck was seen drag
ging huge box into the house and
refused to let anyone enter his par
ents' bedroom, neighbors grew sus-
picious. That night the youth dis
appeared. Detectives forced the
doors and entering the bedroom
they found themselves face to face
with an indescribable sight On the
floor lay the bodies of the boys ia
ther and mother. For three weeks
their son and murderer had lived III

were decomposing. Arrested. he con-
fessed to the murders, saying he

SKIN BOAT SAVES
SIX OF WRECKED
TREASURE CRAFT
Some Members of Casco, Ste
venson's Old Boat, Reach
Alaskan Port.

Nome, Alaska, Sept. 25-Six men,
bers of the wrecked schooner
Casco, a San Francisco treasure
seeking boat, arrived here in a ma
tive skin boat from King island,
about 90 miles north of Nome,
where the Casco grounded during a
gale September 8. All the other
members Of the crew are living
with King island natives, waiting
for help, the six said. No lives were
lost when the vessel grounded.
When the Casco grounded she
was heading south from the Arc
tic ocean and had almost reached
Nome. The crew remained aboard
until the gale subsided and then
rugged up cable and hauled the
supplies ashore. For several days
they looked in vain for a sail and
when none appeared the six men
volunteered to try to row to Nome
for help.
The Casco, which once was the
property of Robert Louis Stevenson.
can be floated if help arrives before
the coming winter ice freezes her
in, the men said. The United States
revenue cutter Bear left here for
King island.
Had Many Experiences.
Many experiences were encoun-
tered by the Casco after she left
Nome July IA, bound for a gold
country in Kolyma river section of
northern Siberia. w. L. McGirk,
mining engineer of Hamilton, Tex,
was in charge and nearly all the
members of the little boats company
were miners financially interested in
the venture. McGirt did not remain
with the boat long, for when he went
ashore to hunt in Siberia storm
came up and forced the Casco to
take to sea. Later McGirk made
his way back to San Francisco.
Usually heavy ice hindered the
Casco's passage northward, yet she
proceeded as far as North Cape
on the Siberian Arctic coast before
she was forced to stop At North
Cape, which was reached August
"a, the crew landed supplies for
second attempt for next year and
then turned the boats Prov for
Nome.
Forced Ashore Eight Times.
: Eight times the Casco was forced
ashore after she left North Cape
and started back. Several times
the crew was obliged to get out
and drag the boat through the
thickening ice. Often the boat
would plow into blind Leads" in
the ice and then spend several days
getting out.
Finally East Cape and the Ber-
ing Straits were reached Encoun
tering storm, the Casco decided
to run for King Island and Nome.
She rounded the north end of the
island safely, but was caught by
the wind on the south end and
driven ashore, stern first.
Capt. c. L. Oliver, her master,
was knocked overheard when she
struck. He contracted pneumonia
and is seriously i'll OH the island.

MISSING PORTION
OF STOLEN LOOT
Three Men, Arrested for Theft
of $234,000. Buried $l32,740
Before They Were Caught

made today by postoffice inspectors
and detectives of farms few miles
northwest of Chicago where $132,-

lice. They are Leo aud Walter Fill
lipkowski, brothers, and John

en- the automobile in which the rob-
bers escaped. Returning to Chicago

that led to the identity of the rob-
bers and the recovery of part of
the stolen money when the Fillip-
kowski brothers were arrested on
suspicion of being implicated in a
saloon robbery in which $1,500 >had
been stolen The brothers believed
they had been arrested for the Whit
ing robbery. When questioned by
the police the men said they had hid
den the stolen money in a china
closet at their home.
When detectives searched the
closet they were surprised to find
almost $4,000. Later $4,000 addi-
tional was recovered. Wejda was
arrested after the Fillipkowski
brothers had implicated him in the
robbery.
Detectives today arrested William
Fillipkowski, brother of the two
held with Wejda, after they had re-
covered Sl2,500 said to have been de-
posted by him at an outlying bank
and believed to have been part of
the loot.

KNEW D'ANNUNZIO
PLANNED FIUME
COUP LONG AGO
Italian Government Informed Of
His Plans Last July. Ac-
cording to Paper.

Washington. Sept. 2S.-The Ital-
ian government was informed last
July of the plans of Lieut.. Col. Ga
briele D'Annunzio for his Fiume ad-
venture, according to the Italian So
cialist paper, Avanti, extracts from
which were cabled from Geneva to
the official information bureau here
of the kingdom of the Serbs,
Croats and Slovenes.
The paper also asserts that the al
lies were told of D'Annunzio's ac-
completes in Fiume long before the
soldier-poet carried opt his CAM
paign.
"At the beginning OF Jniy, imme-
diately after the great demonstra-
ton ard the attacks in the press
agains. Signor Nitti, the Avanti was
quoted as saying Gabrielle D'Annun-
zio sent one of his most trusted
friends to the premier toSinform the
latter that he (D'Annunzio) was
ready to come to/an understanding
with him, but that he asked to be
allowed to carry out, on his own re-
sponsibility, the expedition in re-
gard to which the government had
received certain Information
and which it was trying to cause to
fail, by warning its most active
members of the consequences of
their acts.
Allies Would Accept.
"D'Annunzio caused all the posi-
bilities of favorable issue of his
plan to be laid before Signor Nitti,
and affirmed that the allies would
accept the fait accompli.'
Premier Nitti replied that the
political, economic and military con-
sequences of such an undertaking
would be very serious. He added
that, while he appreciated the senti-
ments of the poet, he would give
orders to arrest him if he should
try to carry out any such adven-
ture. The government knew that
D'Annunzio's accomplices were an
admiral and two generals who were
stationed at Fiume and whom the
government was forced to remove
from their commands.
Carried Out His Plans.
In spite of all this. D'Annunzio
carried out his plans, which is diff
ficult to understand when one re-
members that the expedition was
Orratlized and rarried ont IN tho
territory of the war zone. which is

THE allies were informed of the
activities of the admiral and the

this had great influence on the re-
suit, unfavorable to Italy, of the

SKIRT MUST GO
IF WOMEN ARE
TOSTAY HEALTHY
California Female Doctor Also
Condemns Waists, Bras
sieres and Sleeves.

New York, Sept. 23.-(By Uni
versal Service. 1.-The skirt must 60
if women are to preserve their
health and endurance, declared DR..
Celia D. Mosher of Palo Alta, Cal,
in an address before the Interna-
tional Conference of Women Physi-
clans here. Women are the equal
of men in strength, DR.. Mosher said,
but they are handicapped from the
very beginning of life by the vaga-
ries of fashion which condemn wom-
en- to wear skirts.
1--WE must 60 back to the Greek
ideal of physical perfection" she
said. IF the children are clothed
and trained properly there need be
no limitation on the activities of
women of the next generationI But
the girl must not sit in the house
doing knitting to trim her clothes
while the boy plays ball. What we
have to do is not to minimize, but
to eliminate feminine handicaps."
Close-f fitting waists and brassieres
and sleeves are also condemned by
DR.. Mosher. She points out, how
ever, that because of feminine re-
strictions some of women's muscles
are stronger than the corresponding
ones in men.
Women" said DR.. Mosher,
have acquired special strength in
certain muscles through buttoning
their waists and skirts in the back,
through piling their long and heavy
hair on top of their heads"
The delicate and undeveloped
woman, DR.. Mosher said, is no
longer type of beauty. In 1865,
she said, "the ideal measure of a
girls waist was suggested to be
l6H inches. What would she say
of the war worker of the last few
years in her uniform?"
mot only women" she added,
"but the race has suffered from the
popular conception of her weakness
and lack of endurance. Even nur-
sery rhymes carry out the idea of
her inefficiency. There is actually
no difference in the muscular
strength of men and women due to
sex as such. The existing differ
ences are due to habit of dress"
