REVENUE COLLECTOR
ON JOB AT BOISE

The United States internal revenue
office for the Idaho district was
transferred Monday morning by F. M.
Blandy, assistant supervisor of col
lectors, Evan Evans, the newly ap-
pointed collector of internal revenue,
taking charge, states the Idaho
Statesman. Mr.. Evans succeeded
Lewis Williams.
There are but a few changes in the
personnel of the office and field
forces at this time. L. F. Parsons as
sumes the position of chief office
deputy, succeeding J. M Adams Mr.
Adams was transferred to the chief of
income tax division. Clyde NJ Gray,
who had been chief of the income tax
division, was selected as chief of the
division at Pocatello, the principal
field division of the state. Mr.. Gray
has been in the service for several
years, both in field and office work
and has had wide experience S. G.
Bixler, who has had charge Of the
office at Pocatello, for the past two
years, will resign after the expiration
of the vacation he is entitled to under
government regulations.
All persons employed on the staff,
other than civil service employees, were
commissioned and will serve until
such time as their successors may be
selected.
In speaking of the changes in the
office, Mr.. Evans stated that 1t is
that the public does not
recognize the technical character of
the work of the internal revenue de-
partment and of the large service
which it must perform for the public.
There is not position in the office
nor in the field that does not require
a knowledge of bookkeeping and ac-
counting and the ability to interpret
the federal revenue laws.

sROBIN HOOD" APPEALS AS
DID A GENERATION AGO

That many years that have passed
since Reginald DeKoven's robin
Hood" has been adequately present
ed causes theatrical chroniclers to-
speculate somewhat as to the result
of the inevitable comparison of Mr..
DeKoven's admirable work with the
musical comedies which hold sway
nowadays Mr.. Ralph Dunbar, who
is responsible for the presentation of
robin Hood" at the University
Auditorium next Saturday night re-
porting the results of his production's
soiourn in many cities, says that no
other musical work of the comic
opera order ever presented in Ameri-
ca seems to number SO many friends
1t appars that those who heard and
loved robin" a generation ago are
still partial to its charm, and that the
generation are as easily cap
tured as were their forbears. Of the
half a hundred comic operas which
Mr. DeKoven composed and had pre-
sented upon the American stage, the
most enduring and universally loved
is 'sRobin Hood"

ROSEBURC DENTIST
GUILTY, SAYS JURY
BRUMFIELD'S MURDER OF DEN-
MS RUSSELL PLANNED AND
EXECUTED in COLD BLOOD.

ROseburg, Ore, Oct. ia jury in
the circuit court tonight brought in
verdict of guilty of murder in the
first degree in the case of DR.. Rich
ard M. Brumfield, charged with the
Staying on July 13 last of Dennis Rus
sell, a bachelor-farmer, whose head
less body was found beneath the
smoking wreckage of Brumfield's
automobile beside a road near here.
The penalty for first degree murder
is death by hanging.
Judge Bingham will pass sentence
on DR.. Brumfield at 900 a. m. Sat-
urday, he announced The jury an
nounced that it had arrived at a yer-
dict at 11:25 p. M, after being out
for three hours.
The prisoner received the verdict
with no show of emotion but Mrs.
Brumfield, the defendants wife, coll
lapsed and was assisted from the
court room.
The prosecution brought testimony
that Brumfield had been seen in his
automobile between Russell's cabin
and Roseburg on the day of the MUIR
der, driving furiously and carrying
what appeared to be body partly in
and partly hanging out of the front
part of his car; that pool of blood
near RusselPs place indicated that he
he'd been slain there; that bullet holes
in his body and bullets found CORES
pOnded to the caliber of a rifle which
Brumfield owned; that dynamite had
beed used to blow the head from the
body in an apparent effort to destroy
its identity; that Brumfield had re-
Gently bought dynamite and had
negotiated with Russell about blast
ing some stumps on the Brumfield
farm; that prior to the murder,
Brumfield had written to steamship
agency inquiring about the cost OF
passage to Australia and Victoria;
that Brumfield's finances were in bad
condition and that he carried heavy
life insurance.
The defense was mainly one of IN
sanity. The accused dentist himself
took the witness stand at the trial
and told the jury that he had been
seized with complete loss Of memory
two days before Russell was killed,
and that with the exception of brief
when he was in Portland and
another when he was in Victoria, B.
c., he had no recollection of anything
he had done or anything that had
happened to him. Confronted with
a letter which the Canadian police
had found in his bed on the Calgary
ranch, and in which, over the sigma
,ure of Dennis Russell the writer had
to make it appear that
Russell was living and Brumfield
lead, the dentist admitted the hand
writing was his but testified that he
lad no recollection of having writ
EN- it.

ALBERT MOORE, WHITMAN
CO. MURDERER, ARRESTED

Deputy Sheriff Baker of Whitman
county today arrested Albert S.
Moore, who shot and killed his
brother-in-law, Clarence Gray, on the
Milan Still ranch, near ST. John
Thursday morning, October 13. Baker
has been trailing Moore since Mon
day in the hills between Kahlotus and
Ethiopia, along the Snake river. The
country in which he had been hiding
is rough and offers excellent shelter
for criminals, In the early days Of
the country it was the rendevouz of
horse thieves and other criminals.
Moore is said to have been jealous
of his wife and because of his abuse
she had been forced to leave him.
This is said to have been the cause
of the shooting.
