WILL BOYD ESCAPES

viii Boyd, who is charged with
murder in connection with the death
of Ganson and Relias Funderburk,
and who was adjudged insane and
sent to the State Insane Asylum,
made his escape Saturday night.
Little is known here of the circum-
stances of his escape. A telegram was
received by Sheriff Grant on Monday
stating he was at large and letter
followed which said he received aid
from another inmate.
If Boyd was not insane when talk
en- from the county Jail to Columbia,
ne was certainly a good actor.
If captured he will undoubtedly be
tried on the murder charge.

Hunting Eggs-Got City

The story of the fall of Jerusalem before General Allenby is not as pie turesque as the moving pictures have portrayed it, but more amusing. In the narrative given recently by Major Vivian Gilbert. who was machine gun officer of the Sixty sixth division, the first to come in touch with the city.
 "The colonel of a London regiment told a mess cook to get some eggs the morning the Turks withdrew from Je- rusalem," said Major Gilbert. The cook went in the direction given him but lost his way. He soon came to the outskirts of what appeared quite a large city, and the inhabitants seemed to be coming out to welcome him. with white flags flying before them When they saw he was British they sur rounded him and. in spite of his cries that he wanted eggs-they dragged him down the main street, which was packed with townspeople.

the colonel when the man returned to our lines. Said he:
 "A toff standing on a balcony tried to give me bunch or keys, and sez, "The city is yours" but I sez, Il don't want the city; I want eggs.
 When the colonel heard the story he went to the brigadier, who rode to Jerusalem. The mayor of the city handed him the keys. The brigadier made a short speech and returned. In the meantime the major general com manding the division had been notified. He rang up and said: Stop the brig adler. I will myself take the surren- der"
 Shortly after the major general ar rived and, the brigadier having hand ed the keys back to the mayor, the mayor came out again, made a speech, surrendered the city to the major gen eral, and handed over the keys When the major general reported to the commander in chief, General Allenby wired to say that in two days he would

HAVE NO FEAR.

No other community in the world
would have gone through that which
this city experienced yesterday and
accept 1t so philosophically. Not a
ripple OF excitement was In evidence
and supreme confidence in the sue
cess OF the First State and Savings
bank to come out Of its difficulties
was to be found on every hand.
The closing of this bank was no
commonplace affair, yet 1t was re-
ceived as are all events Of ordinary
Importance. This is because the
people deep down in their hearts
have no fear Of the outcome. We
expect the bank to open and do
business as usual. Investigation
shows that at no time was II insolv-
ent. The stories of bad loans are
pure fabrications. We know that
recent examination Of its securities
disclosed nothing out Of the ordin-
sry. Thoughtless and designing per-
sons are making statements that
had better be left unsaid, for they
are going to be subjected to the
searchlight Of publicity IL they are
continued.
The president Of the bank, Cap
tain Siemens, will be home tonight
and will. no doubt. within a day or
two have a statement to make that
will clarity the situation and put
the public In possession of all the
facts they are entitled to know.
There is nothing to fear. Every
depositor will be paid dollar for
dollar. A little patience and the
same degree OF common sense will
have to be exercised for short time
and then there will be a clearing
of the difficulties and things will go
on as usual.

CONFIDENCE IN
S|EMENS UNIQUE

| No new developments were re-
ported today in connection with the
closing of the First State & Savings
bank yesterday on orders of the
state superintendent Of banking,
Marshall Hooper, assistant state su-
perintendent, said that an examin-
alton of the banks records is under
way, but the investigation may take
several weeks to complete. In the
meantime there Is no information
other than already given in the no
tice posted on the bank doors
There is every indication that this
bank is solvent"
Rumors are rife on every hand,
as usual in such situations, but they
add nothing to the story. Level
headed business men, depositors of
the institution, are apparently not
worrying. There is general conf
dence that the bank will reorgan-
ize and reopen.
Capt. J. w. Siemens, president Of
the bank is expected to return to-
night from Portland.
The situation contains many
unique features. Primarily, 1t is
an extraordinary thing to close the
doors OF solvent bank to protect
its loyal depositors from the result
of a shaken confidence on the part
Of the timid minority who partici-
pated in the run that lowered the
reserves to the danger point.
But more unique than that is the
attitude of the community toward

WOULD REVISE
SCHOOL SYSTEM
Of CALIFORNIA
(By Associated Press)

SACRAMENTO, Cal, Jan. 13.-
Five or six miles and two constitu-
tional amendments designed to put
into effect the reorganization OF the
California educational system rec
commended by a joint legislative COM
mittee appointed at the close OF the
1919 session. will be placed before
the present legislature, according to
Senator Jones of San Jose.
The plan is to create a state de-
partment Of education that would in
clude all education institutions, from
the state university to the element
ary schools, and would take over ed
ucational functions now performed
by various state agencies. Senator
Jones said the committees recon-
mendations were in harmony with
plans for complete reorganization Of
the state government along lines OF
efficiency and economy.
A state board of education would
have supervision OF all educational
matters and the superintendent. of
public instruction would be made an
appointive officer. Similar action is
contemplated in counties, the county
superintendent Of schools being ap-
pointed rather than elected,
While the University Of California;
board of regents would corie into the
department, according to Senator
Jones. its functions would not be dis
turbed.
The plan contemplates 'ais!ng of
state normal schools to the status OF
colleges for teacher training so that
the standard of teachers for element
airy schools may be made higher,
Regional junior colleges would be set
up through the proposed system,
thus relieving congestion al the

The reason for this, Mr.. Bur-
rel believes, is that those accus-
toned to using liquor who have
been deprived of it have turned
to drugs to satisfy their desires.
One of the commissioners
ideas of reducing the number of
patients at the institution is
through a cooperative plan with
the Mexican government. Many
of the patients are Mexicans and
through an agreement with the
Mexican consul recently estab-
ished at Boise, the department
hopes to have all these patients
removed from the institutions
and returned to their native
land.
