at the morning preaching service and
eight more at night, making % for
the day and grand total of 58 the
first week of the meeting. The music
and sermons were best yet, and the
children's Bible drill was the surprise
of the meeting. 1t seemed impos-
sible that children could learn so
much in five days of twenty minutes

Failed to Reach Viola
Evangelists White and Gates were
to conduct services at Viola yester-
day afternoon and left this city at
80 p. m. for that place in a large
! bob-sled with some of the congrega-
ton from here, and the snow had not
been broken over much of the road
and the team became weary and could
not make fast time, and just as the
party reched sight of the church the,
large audience that had waited al
most an hour decided they were not
coming and dismissed. The Evangel-
lists regret this very much and wish
to let all know they made the effort.

BEST VARIETIES OF
OATS FOR LATAH COUNTY

| Farmers of number OF communi-
ties of L4atah county have written to
the farm bureau office to inquire as
to the best varieties of oats to grow
in this section. Just recently the
| farmers of the Palouse community
asked the county agent to publish the
results of the varieties tests at the
experiment station at Moscow
The county agent took this matter
up with Prof. R. X. Bennett, head of
the Agronomy department of the Ag-
ricultural College, and secured the
following information:
The results secured at the Idaho
experiment station during the past
several seasons show that the medium
late varieties of oats give better yields
than either very early or very late
varieties. Among the best yielding
medium late varieties are Sweish Sc

DIGGERS TURN UP TREASURE
Sewer Workers Find Collection Of
Rings and Watches in a Bos-
ton Slime Pit

Boston.--A sewer gang quit work at
noon the other day with valuable
treasure trOve. In the slime of an
old pit near the Quincy house they
had found three gold rings, coins,
watches and other valuables.
Hotel employees suggested that the
hotel had claim on the articles, as
the property probably of guests of by
gone days. The police suspected that
they were part of the loot of thieves.
But when the men showed coins dat
ing back to 1887, stamped with pine
tree ON one side and Massachusetts
on the other, they insisted that the
statute of limitations made the prop
erty theirs.
With the ancient coins they found
beer checks, which the foreman of the
gang said he intended to keep with
pine tree shilling as a souvenir
of the past. The foreman estimated
that the deposit of mud in which the
valuables were found had not been dis
turbed in rs years.

 APPEAR BEFORE INQUIRY BOARD

Randall today re- fused to appear before the board of in- quiry appointed by the shipping bc<rG to investigate the charge that he had refused while commanding the steam ship Hudson, to aid three men adrift in 8. disabled motorboat in Ambrose Chan. nel, October 5. The men later were res cued by another steamer
 The Hudson, from whose command Captain Randall had been suspended pending investigation. sailed yesterday for Europe with another officer on the bridge. Randall had hoped the in%esti- gation would be completed quickly. SO that he could obtain reinstatement and take the Hudson out of port.
 When he learned, after shipping board officials had boarded his vessel to ques- tion his officers, that such was not to be the case. he said he had decided on advice of counsel to disobey the order to attend today's hearing. He made this known by calling at the boards offices and leaving a letter setting forth his intentions.
 A. F. Mack. district manager of the shipping board. declared that Captain Randalrs refusal to appear at the in- | quiry left no course open but con- ! tinuation of the officers suspension.

New York, Oct. 1s.-Fifty-seven sleep CTS in Bryant Park, New York's unem- ployment center, were given surprise today when they were arraigned before Magistrate Silberman on charges of va grancy after being caught in a police roundup early this morning With one exception, all found themselves leaving court with money for food and lodging given them by the magistrate or by mem- bers of the Sunset club, composed of wo- men who are grandmothers.
 Some had jobs to go to right away, others left with new found friends who promised to get them work, while the minors among the gathering were sent to charitable institutions for care until friendly protection can be found for them. One surly individual got five days in the work house.
 There were men from all parts of the United States, South America, England and Europe. Magistrate Silberman warned the strangers he would not repeat his action in future cases of the kind that New York had enough to do to care for it's own. There were eleven former service men in the crowd.
