Washington, Dec. 15.-Told by
Senator HI. F. Ashurst, Arizona, that
hundreds of ormer service men were
dying of tuberculosis ION the deserts
of Arizona" where they went seek
ing cure for Capabilities resulting
from gas attacks of the Germans,
the senate voted an appropriate tion of
$1,000,000 for additional hospitali-
zation. The funds, which are carried
in the first deficiency bill passed by
the senate, would be expended by the
Veterans bureau.
Senator Ashurst had challenged
the special senate committee, which
had been investigating the needs of
former service men, to leave the
luxuries of Washington and go to
Arizona" as they had promised him
he declared, three times to do.
Former service men, he said, were
flocking to Arizona under the belief
that the climate would. aid them to
recover from tuberculosis and the
effects of gassing. Present hospital
facilities are overtaxed, he said
Hundreds of them are dying neg
lected on the deserts, he said.

New York, Dec. 15.-Betty Land
erss is 20, calls herself an "artiste"
and tells the police her address is
none of their business.
Betty appeared at a subway sta
tion, gave the chopper gay little
smile instead of ticket and threw
away her hat.
Then she sang little song, danced
little dance and kicked off both
her little patent leather pumps.
Betty danced some more. 1t was a
very warm night, Betty thought, so
she began to take off her clothes.
First came one thing and then an
other and another and--finally, po-
Hceman. BY the time he got there
Betty was wearing two pink stocking
and two ribbony garters.

Since he couldn't induce her to put

ing draped once more, and sent her

UNABLE To FIND
M'NABOE S BODY
SEARCH FOR MISSING MAN is
CONTINUED LITTLE EvI-
DENCE Is UNCOVERED.

Salem, Dec. 15.-After a protract-
ed search by the sheriff and a posse
of more than 200 men all day Sun
day and Monday, in an effort to find
the body of Peter McNaboe, the far
mer who disappeared last week, no
results have been obtained and the
mystery of the disappearance of his
body is as dense as ever. The only
clues that have been unearthed so
far as known to the public are as
follows: A lumber wagon was heard
going through Bridgewater at about
S a. m. Tuesday morning at top
speed; a pair of shoes said to resem-
BILE those worn by a hired man of the
deceased shortly before the day OF
the crime were found about five miles
southwest of Bridgewater, which
leads to the belief that the body of
the murdered man was loaded onto
his wagon stolen by the murderer,
driven through Bridgewater and on
southwest, and that there the MUIR
derer threw his own shoes away and
LhCA put On thOoC AOohA Ob tnN
corpse.
A further examination of the MUIR
dered mans premises also disclosed
the fact, that everything of value was
stolen from the house by the perpe-
traitor of the crime. Including food,
and a large hole was found In the
ground min the rear OF the barn
where q charge of shot from q shot
gun had entered the ground. and In
this hole were found quite quantity
of flesh and blood and also shreds of
a pair of overalls similar to those
formerly worn by Mr.. McNaboe,
which strengthens the theory of Off
GERS that he was first beaten down
to the ground and then shot through
the body with a shotgun at close
range.
So far as known by the public, no
trace of the missing hired man has
heen discovered as yet by the author
tiles; neither have the wagon, team
and harnes or other property been To-
Gated. The search was being contin-
ued today.

TO SAVE
LAWYER 'SFEES
FARMER PLEADS GUILTY TO
sELIN& MORTGAGED PROP

Watertown, Dec 15.-An unusual
incident occurred in the circuit court
here following the entering of plea
of guilty by James Anderson, d far
mer, to charge of selling mortgag-
ed property.
Judge Skinner listened closely to
story told by Anderson following
the entering of his plea, and then
stated in open court that Anderson
had pleaded guilty to a charge on
which no jury would ever convict
him.
Judge Skinner had no other re-
course than to fine Anderson, but he
sentenced him to pay only the costs
of the action, amounting to $S5.
According to Anderson's story, he
sold the mortgaged property. but. did
it only with the knowledge and con-
sent of the holder of the mortgage.
and to secure money with which to
purchase coal and groceries for his
family. @N8@s 4{tR tst ~ Dds
Anderson told the court he rented
a farm near Clear Lake, Deuel. coun-
ty, and resided there three years.
During the three years he had crop
failures and had mortgaged every
thing he possessed but his household
goods. Ill-fortune pursued him close
ly. He told hod he lost half dozen
head of horses, 20 head of cattle,
and then one of his children died.
Finally the mortgage was foreclos-
ed and everything, even to his kit
chen stove, was sold. He said he told
the banker, he must have money to
pay his threshing bill, and to buy
some coal and groceries, and that
the banker told him to go ahead and
sell some of his grain, on which the
banker held mortgage. Anderson
stated that he accordingly hauled
314O worth Of grain to market.
Thinking everything was all right
he went to Iowa to live, keeping the
holder of the mortgage advised as to
his whereabouts. Then he was
threatened with arrest and decided
to come to Watertown and enter a
plea of guilty and thus save attor-
ney's fees.

AoLYokE CLOSES SEASON At
HOME BY DEFEATING HAxTuN

The last football game Of the sea
son to be played on the home grounds
was won from Haxtun by the local
high school boys last Friday after
noon. The score was 32-0.
During the first half neither side
was able to score. The line plunging
and end running tactics were used
almost exclusively. Some good gains
were made by both sides. hut nearly
always these gains were lost when
the opposition stiffened.
During the latter part of the Sec
ond quarter. Edgar who was playing
right end on the Holyoke team. re.
covered tumble made by Haxtun
and made touchdown. The referee,
however. did not see the. tumble, blew
his whistle for down. and conse.
quently the play was not counted.
In the last half of the game Hol.
yoke opened up on forward passes
and from then on Haxtun played
defensive game.
The first touchdown was made by
Harmon. who carried the ball over
the line in a line plunge after the
ball had been carried within about
yard Of the goal by q series of long
gains. Holyoke did not kick goal ON
this touchdown. N 7.
One more touchdown in the third
quarter brought the score up to IL
to in favor Of Hoiyoke. <s,J
In the last quarter Holyoke went
into the game with such fury that
Haxtun was taken clear on IL feet
Although four subs were put IN ON
the Holyoke team. many big gains
were made by their eflicient forward
passes. - =
Three more touchdowns were made
in this quarter. One BY Harmon and
two by Edgar. The last touchdown
was made by Edgar about three or
four seconds before the whistle which
announced the end Of the gone.
Nelson and Gruben. two Of the Hax.
tun star players, were compelled to
leave the game because Of injuries.
and the one-sidedness Of the last
quarter was perhaps due to their alb
sence from the game.
Next Thursday. Thanksgiving day.
the Holyoke eleven goes to Julesburg
to play the last game Of the season.
The boys have been playing classy
football. and It is expected they will
annex another victory when they
meet the Julesburg huskies. :

Thanksgiving

There are many reasons for thank
fulness this year. Home and health
and loved cnes, which should mean
happiness and contentment Though
those near and dear to us BY family
ties be far away on account of the
fates Of conditions, II death has not
broken the family circle, we should
be thankful. It we have had a rea.
sonable measure Of success. we should
be thankful.
We so often overlook the little
things of life for which we should al.
ways be thankful The beautiful sdn-
shine. cheerful friends with pleasant
faces and a handshake that comes
from within. happy children-ths
light and Joy Of the home-the song
OF the birds and the lovely flowers
with their delicate colors and rich
perfume. These are common. but We
sAould be thankful for them all. what
would this world be without them.
We should be thankful that We are
at peace with the world. Think of the
conditions prior to three years ago
last Friday. Thousands Of American
homes had been invaded by the .fstes
Of war. Great seas Of humanity were
being washed into eternity on wages
Of human blood. We call those days
prosperous ones. How prosperous!
At the expense Of human lives. Do
you wish prosperity in that way? II
takes soulless corporation or a
heartless man to crave that sort Of
prosperity. -.
Let us be thankful that We are ~
uated as we'll as we are. Many are
thankful who are less fortunate. .s
