Others had the proprietor under ar

varying from few years to life.

any evidence at all that there was
any truth in the story. The reward

transferred to Colfax, where it was

One of Colfax s largest and Oldest de

men and women repeated the story
with engagements, until it finally
died out and was transferred to Lew

AMERICANS IN UNIFORM
BARRED BY SWITZERLAND

The American army at Coblenz has
been notified that the Swiss govern
ment has withdrawn its permission
for American soldiers to enter Swift
zerland while in uniform. Since the
soldiers are not permitted to travel
in civilian clothing the action of the
government amounts to practical ex-
clusion. 1t has been the practice of
many soldiers on leave to visit Swift
zerland.
A short time before this action the
Swiss federal council decided not to
allow the transit of arms and NUM-
tions over Swiss territory. The al
lies wanted to send war supplies to
the aid of the Poles but the Swiss are
so jealous of their sovereignty and
neutrality that they blocked the plan.

ARMY SEEKS $4,000 RECRUITS

Notwithstanding the claim that all
army peace time records were brok-
en- in the last three months, an ex-
tensive recruiting campaign is being
conducted in the newspapers and ma
gaines of the country. About $4,000
recruits are needed and approximate
ly $4,000 will be spent for this pub
Lefty work. Following a survey of
recruiting conditions it was deter
mined to advertise in publications of
the widest circulation. One reason
advanced for the difficulty in obtain
ing men for the army is the fact that
when the A. E. F. was in Europe a
general order was issued prohibiting
privates from associa ting with army
or Red Cross nurses, which privilege,
however, was INDUCED in by Officers.
1t is objected by the men that no
red blooded" American wishes to
feel that he is an outcast. The maxi
mum strength of the army should be
