| Cronkhite at Camp Lewis, Wash, in
October, 1916. Porthier is not tech
/ nically under arrest and the officials
here absolutely refuse to say any
thing about the case.
Major Cronkhite, who was in com
mand OF a battalion of infantry had
marched his company to pistol tar
get practice. During the noon hour
when the men were at mess the major
walked some yards away behind a
clump of bushes and began firing at
an old tobacco can. On his fifth shot
he turned towards some soldiers and
called out "did you see that shot"
The men turned towards him when
suddenly another shot was fired and
they saw the major fall. There was
a bullet wound under his arm pit.
The court of inquiry reported the
major had shot himself, but upon the
return of Major Gen. Cronkhite a new
investigation was started. The body
was exhumed and experts are said 70
have reported the wound could not
have been self-infiicted. Since that
time the department of justice ~
searched the country asf ;,rary
and the detention of lState sdid
to be regarded as only a step in the
direction of the solution Of the death
mystery.

classed by Home Boys

For the second time within a week
the St. Johnsbury Academy basket

game at the Fairbanks Athletic AS

The score was AZ to IL. Last Friday
night at Bath the local quintet over

The first period of last night 5
game was fairly interesting but the

were so greatly outclassed that it
wasn't necessary for the Academy
boys to exert themselves. The score

and Marshall was especially effective.
The dribbling and general defense
work of the local team was good. Al
though Marshall succeeded in caging
ten baskets he just as. well could have
had twice that number had he shot
with any degree of success.
Foye dropped the ball through the
hoop on six occasions, but had many
more chances The work of Swasey
at center is to be commended. Darling
and Harvey played their usual
strong guard game and Scruton and
Moore, who went in as relics in the
final frame showed prospects, of be-
coming regulars one of these fine
days.
Knighton was the only member Of
the visiting team that deserves any
large amount of credit His work was
the only feature of the game so far

TAKE TESTIMONY
IN TAYLOR TRIAL
IN LYND0NVILLE
Evidence of Alleged Assault
Upon Scott NJ. Farnum
Is Heard

The trial of the State VS.. Frank
l.. Taylor of Lyndon, we'll known in
surance representative Of this sec
ton, on charge of the breach of the
peace, got under way shortly after
one o'clock this afternoon after the
entire forenoon had been consumed in
| the selection of jury. 1t was expect
ed the evidence would be completed
! and the case in the hands Of the jury
before the adjournment of court to-
day.
The trial, which is being held in
the law Offices of Mason A. Norton,
attracted a goodly crowd of specta-
tors at both sessions on account of
the wide acquaintance in this section
of both men.
The state, represented by States
Attorney James B. Campbell, alleges
that on a recent visit on Scott N.
Farnum, overseer of the poor in the
town of Lyndon, he was attacked by
Taylor. In the melee Farnum is
said to have lost his glasses and suf-
fered decorations of the face
Z. L. Wells and Charles NJ Dar-
ling, two jurors, who were originally
called, were out Of the state and were
unable to serve on the jury today. II.
L. Parker was excused on account
OF sickness. Willis Connors, p r.
Griswold and Eli A. Currier were
selected to complete the jury.
The jurors were questioned by
Atty. Campbell and Counsel Porter
if they had formed an opinion in the
case, and could weigh the evidence
presented. John Chase, publisher Of
the Vermont Union, was excused on
account of am article he had publish
ed in regard to the case. He de-
clared he had formed an opinion. The
article published in this paper was
bone of contention during the ques-
tioning of the jurors.
Many of the jurors said they had
formed an opinion in regard to non
support charge pending against Mr..
Taylor but had not formed an opinion
as to the charge of breach of the
peace. In refusing to disqualify the
jurors who had read an article in the
Union-Joulnal, Judge Blodgett cited

purpose of the precipitate action of the
government in making public the British
proposals and the demands of the Irish
republicans had not been disclosed, but
1t would appear that the prime minister
sought to lay the Irish problem before
the.country on the eve Of the meeting Of
the dail eireann.
~ Terms Of British.
The government terms were, in
brief, as follows:
Dominion status for Ireland, with
complete autonomy In financial mat
ters, but without tariff or trade re-
strictions between the islands. Ire
land would maintain defense forces
and police, but her territorial forces
would be kept within reasonable
limits"
Ireland would maintain her own
postal system, but would grant Eng
land air defense and communication
facilities. Ireland would have con-
tro1 of her own educational and in
dustrial affairs, but the British navy
would maintain it's hold on the seas
around the island. A share of the
United Kingdoms debt would be as
sur,ed by Ireland. the exact amount
to be fixed by arbitration.
Mr.. de Valera. in reply. demanded
full independence for Ireland and sug-
rested treaty of association with
the British commonwealth group.
Treaties regarding trade and limita-
tion of armaments were urged by the
Irish republican chieftain. together
with mutual agreements as to air,
railway and other communications

The Ulster problem would be left to
the Irish themselves for solution. Alr.

Craig. the ulster premier. Sir James
expressed the loyalty of his govern
men. to the empire. and reiterated
his readiness to confer with Mr.. Lloyd
George and the Sim Fein as to some
means of settling the Irish contro-
versy: but declared he would not sup
rort the Sim Fein in what he de-
fcribed was "a move to coerce the
Jovernment to repudiate the Irish
act'' and Ito press for wider pow
,rs." Sir James said he would not
interfere in any negotiations between
the British government and the Irish
.lepublicans. but would stand ready
u cooperate on equal terms with
southern Ireland in carrying out any
agreement they reached.

Socialist Leader Was to Have
Lectured Friday Night.

Boise, Ida, July 2.-No clue to the
whereabouts of Mrs. Kate Hare, So
cialist lecturer who was kidnapped at
Twin Falls last night, had been de-
veloped early this morning.
Mrs. O'Hare was taken from the

twenty-five men appeared at the Fried

port from Holliester, Idaho, about
twenty miles south of Twin Falls were
to the effect that several automobiles
passed thru headed south, presumably
toward Wells New.
Mrs. O'Hare was believed to be III

~ ALLY is the servant problem
growing more acute. None but
the very well-to-do can afford
~ to pay the wages which the DO
nestle servants are demanding these
days and even these families may
have their "help" one day and be
without any the next And SO it is
that the home builder must have
in mind house in which the house
work is reduced to>the minimum and
where 1t matters not whether Katie
or Lizzie or Tillie come or go.
Today's house is an ideal home for
the servantless family. It boasts
seven good sized rooms, all conven-
iently and practically arranged. Two
bed rooms, living room. dining room,
sun parlor, kitchen and bath com
prise the ground floor which is the
main story. The upper floor contains
simply two bed rooms which could
be used for the children's play room
and sewing room OF rented out as a
small bachelor apartment.

frame construction with the exterior
covered with wide and narrow drop
