THE IDAHO REPUBLICAN
American Red Cross Does
Great Relief Work In Russia
(By International News Service)

(By International News Service)
WASHINGTON furnishing
relief to the needy of Russia, through
its commissions to Siberia, Western
Russia, the Baltic States and South
ern Russia, American Red Cross SER
vice was extended to millions, &C.
cording to figures taken from the
forthcoming annual report of the or
ganization.
Sanitary trains, or hospitals on
wheels, totalled rs cars, equipped
with $50 beds, with "a capacity of
1850 patients. There were also ty-
plus trains, the work of which was
chiefly preventive. These latter trav-
eled 1900 miles, bathed 105, 900
persons, disinfected 100000 and
issued 100000 clean garments.
In Siberia alone thirty-three trains
distributed the cargoes of thirty
ships from America and portions of
of the cargOes from 80 ships from
other countries. In this work Amer
lean Red Cross trains covered $751;
600 miles and ambulances, trucks
and service cars covered 1888, 900
miles. The supplies distributed by
hese transportation activities
amounted to 5000 tons and were
hauled over 5000 miles Of railroad.
In the way Of Civilian relief in ST.
IBERIA an average of seven articles of
clothing was given to each of $751;
500 men, 3S7,500 women and u.s.
900 children.
Hospitals in Siberia
In caring for the sick in Siberia
the American Red Cross operated
IS hospitals of it's own with a total
of $3.50 beds. There were in these
hospitals Sc American doctors and "a
non-American; 1872 American Red
Cross nurses, Is Russian, Is Japan
csc and 13 Chinese nurses.
Besides aiding and disinfecting all
these Russians, the American Red
Cross rendered it's regular wartime
service to 1880 officers and men of
the American forces in Siberia alone
The cost of supplies issued to these
troops amounted to $45O,34O.
To handle the work of the Siber-
ian Commission total of 1857 peo-
pie was required, sos of whom were
Americans. Ten thousand different
articles were distributed, ranging all
the way from auto-ambulances to
safety-pins. The total disbursement
was $14,000,000.
In Western Russia and the Baltic
States the work done by the Ameri-
can Red Cross was of somewhat
different character and necessitated
less transportation. In this section
the number Of civilian poor relieved
was 297, 101 and the number of ref

Bills Company
Employees Enjoy
Get-Together Meet

All the statesmen and employees of
the Bills Auto Company met for
conference and visit on Tuesday
evening at the Blackfoot office. 1t
was mixed social and business event.
to talk over the policies Of the firm
and the methods of carrying out
those policies.
w. E. Bills is the new manager
and all the employees pledged their
hearty support in carrying out the
policies already instituted by the
late R. G.. Bills.
A group picture of the six brothers
was hung up in the office and under
it a large picture of r. G.. Bills. They
all expressed their determination to
get back of the management and
build up a bigger better business ac-
cording to the original plans Of all
the six brothers.
w. e. Bills was in the mission
fields in Massachusetts, when the &C
cident happened to his brother and
he has just been released from the
mission work to enable him to con-
tinue with the business. His younger
brother, Ivan, engaged in missionary
work at Frostberg, Maryland, and
came home for the funeral. He is still
here but expects to return to his mis-
sionary work in the near future. One
of the members of the family, Mrs.
Roy Clifford, Of Rigby, is to be oper-
ated on Wednesday, and as
soon as she is out of danger, Ivan
will return to Maryland.

The work in South Russia con-
sisted largely of caring for refugees
and in fighting the typhus and chol-
era in the Crimea.
One of the most difficult tasks In
the American Red Cross was that &C
complished in helping the people In
Esthonia, where there was absolutely
no ambulance service and very little
in the way of hospitals when the
Americans arrived. The army was In
retreat, the military was disorganiz-
ed and the combined force of SOL
diers and civilians to the number OF
10000 was hungry, suffering panic
stricken mob.
In December typhus broke out and
for months the Red Cross workers
fought the dread disease. In the be-
ginning the need was for cleanliness
and hospital care. The dead were
piled in the corners Of the rooms with
the sick and no effort at decent bur-
ial was made. In one hospital in Re-
van, consisting of a single barrack
with 400 beds in one room, there
were 900 deaths in one week. In spite
Of all this, the American Red Cross
stopped the epidemic almost single
handed, and in Narva alone, with the
unframed assistance of the people.
treated 5000 cases. Two American
Red Cross officers, Lieutenant George
W. Winfield and Lieutenant Clifford
Blanton, gave up their lives In the
work.

Freed Prisoners of War
Much of the relief in Western Rus
STA was hospital service. The work
developed out of the commission for
relief of Allied prisoners of war in

parts of the country and carried 10,-

II LAUGHS the Athenian,

~ LAUGHS the Armenian,

loud and clear voice
the lions await thee
at am ready said the Athenian. He
had bent his limbs so as to give him
self the firmest posture at the expect
ed rush of the lion, with his small and
shining weapons raised on high, in the
faint hope that one well-directed
thrust might penetrate through the eye
to the brain of his grim foe.
"But to the unutterable astonish-
ment of all, the beast seemed not even
aware Of the presence Of the Grim
inal. At the first moment of it's re-
lease 1t halted abruptly in the arena,
raised itself half on end, snuffing the
upward air with impatient signs; then
suddenly it sprang forward, but not
on the Athenian. At half-speed it
circled round and round. the space,
turning its vast head from side to side
with an anxious and perturbed gaze,
as If seeking only some avenue Of es-
cape; once or twice 1t endeavored to
leap up the parapet that divided it
from the audience, and, on failing, ut.
tered rather bafiled howl than its
deep-toned and kingly roar. 1t evinced
no sign either of wrath or hunger; its
tail dropped along the sand, instead Of
flashing its gaunt sides; and it's eye,
though 1t wandered at times to Glau-
Gus, rolled again listlessly from him.
At length, as II tired Of attempting to
escape, it crept with moan into its
cage and once more laid itself down
to rest
"The first surprise Of the assembly
at the apathy of the lion soon grew
into resentment at its cowardice; and
The. populace already merged their
pity for the fate Of Glaucus into angry
compassion for their own disappoint-
ment. The manager called to the
keeper:
allow is this? Take a goad, and
prick him forth, and then close the
door of the den.'
"As the keeper, with some fear,
but more establishment, was preparing
to obey, loud cry was heard at one
Of the entrances Of the arena; there
was a confusion, a hustle, voices Of
remonstrance suddenly breaking forth,
and sudden silence at the reply. All
eyes turned in wonder toward the
quarter Of the disturbance; the crowd
gave way, and suddenly Sallust ap-
peared on the senatorial benches, his
hair disheveled, breathless, heated,
half exhausted. He cast his eyes has

FINDS BURIED RELIC
OF ELECTION OF 1910

AWHILE, Pa. W. Sides
while digging a foundation in the
rear of the residence of the late Cor
nelius Smith, found an interesting
relic of the presidential campaign of
1910. Just at the height of the ex-
element over the election it coused
widespread interest.
The relic was in the shape Of a
medal about the size of quarter.
On one side is a pucture of President
Martin Van Buren,, while on the other
is a stamped balance on which the
Wing party is weighed and found
wanting.

WASHINGTON, June 2.-Absen-

Il habit that it became necessary to
transfer from one committee to an
ether Senator Borah's resolution. for
an investigation of the contributions
to Presidential campaign funds. In
asking such transfer, Senator Borah
explained it was necessary because
absence of Senators had made it i'm
possible to get quorum of the COM
mitee to which the resolution was
originally referred.
at is difficult to get majority Of
any committee in session now owing
to the absence of so many Senator'S"
said Senator Borah.
Senator Thomas pointed out that
the Senate was tranacting business
with only handful of Senators pre-
sent, sometimes passing appropria-
tions of millions of dollars with only
few members in the chamber. Ere
quently it has been necessary. to di-
rect the Sergeant-at-Arms to request
the presence of Senators.
