Attack Lasts As Minutes.

Dublin. April 21.-(By The Asso-
ciated Press.)---The attack on the
Wellington barracks which began at
.11:15 O'Clock last night continued
forty minutes when the beseiging Fore
es were beaten off by the garrison of
regular. Irish republican army troops
An attempt was made to rush the
front gate and two grenades were
hurled slightly wounded three of the
garrison. The guard replied with a
grenade and it is believed that two Of
the attackers were wounded as they
were seen being assisted away by COM
rades.
The firing in different parts of the
CITY, while it lasted, was even more in
tense than that Of the previous night,
the explosions of bombs causing the
greatest alarm.
Wellington barracks, which is in a
thickly populated residential section,
was the last barracks here to be evac-
uated by the British and is now re-
sponsible for the military action in
Dublin, Beggars Bush barracks being
the general headquarters Of the pro-
visional governments forces.
The firing about Beggars Bush last
night was comparatively Light, but "a
fusilfade OF fifty shots was heard near
the Four Courts, recently seized by
the Independent forces under Rory
O'Connora
The firing of revolvers in various
parts of the city at night has grown
SO general that it has had almost the
same effect as a curfcw law, peace
loving citizens retiring to their homes
at an early hour.

MILLER TELLS OF
VISIT TO MONTANA
SAYS BUSINESS CONDITIONS
SLIGHTLY IMPROVED - PRICE
FOR SHEEP DOUBLES

Business conditions in Montana are
a little improved, according to a
statement made to a representative
of The Star-Mirror Saturday by Mark
p. Miller, well known Moscow mill
ing man, who has recently returned
from two weeks trip to central
Montana. He reported that the price
of sheep has doubled in Montana with
in the last four months and that the
prospects of a wheat crop are good
for the coming year with an increased
acreage.
"The entire country from her to
eastern Montana is completely blank
eted with snow," said Mr.. Miller, "and
there has been plenty of moisture in
Montana all winter long
Zone very interesting thing that |
learned of on my Montana trip was
that the price of sheep in Montana
has just doubled within the past four
months. In other words the man who
bought sheep four months ago has
just doubled his money. The reasons
for this advance in the sheep market
and the general livestock market are
on account of the fact that there is
lots of hay in the state and plenty of
range. In addition there is at the
present time a good market for live
drought
Montana hay is at the present time
being shipped into North Dakota.
There is plenty of range in Montana
and with the heav snowfall Of this
winter the range should be good this
year. In the dry year of 1919 much
of the stock of Montana was shipped
out of the state on account of the
droughth.
"I found that business conditions
were a little better In some ways
the people of this country are better
off than the people of Montana while
in other ways the Montana business
conditions are better than our own
There is a class of people here who
are harder up than the Montana peo-
pie in that at one time they were
able to borrow more and now they
find themselves pretty deeply in debt.

DIES AS RESULT
ROLLING TREATMENT

Treatment which it is said Mrs
Matte Shaw received while in the
hospital of "The Inner Circle of Jesus
Christ" at Culdesac, and in which she
later died, consisted of covering her
body with oil and rolling her on the
floor This information was received
Wednesday by Paul Davis, director of
the bureau of license, in copy of the
complaint on which A. A. Hansen and
Walter Shaw, her husband, were ar
rested, says the Statesman. Charges
of involuntary manslaughter were
filed against the two man and each
is held in default of $4,000 bond
Their preliminary hearing will be
held March l.
The complaint also charges that the
two men beat the woman with their
hands in order to drive the devil out
of her
Mrs. Shaw was taken to the hoSpit-
al in September, 1920, suffering from
a tumor In the complaint it is charg-
ed that each day she was subjected
to the oil and rolling treatment and
as result of this she died in Sep
tember of the following year
Accounts of the arrest of the two
men in Lewiston newspaper say
that there are now 19 persons in the
hospital including two young girls,
several children and a number of
middle-aged women

TRAVELINGMATRIMONIAL
AGENTS IN GERMANY

Berlin-(A P.)-Traveling matri-
monial agents constitute the very
latest idea in Germany where keen
competition has developed among
matrimonial bureaus because of the
great surplus of women, partly due to
the war
The matrimonial agents go from
one town to another seeking gold
fishes,' as the Germans call them
or, in other words, women with
money who are desirous of obtaining
true love and good looking husband,
though poor.
Both men and women have taken
to the work of nuptial agents and
operate on the trains as they travel,
seeking the acquaintance of likely-ap-
pearing candidates to whom they ex-
plain their propositions when given
even less than half a chance.
The matrimonial agents carry a
sample case" in the form of large
album, leather bound with handles,
and which is nearly as large as
suitcase, the album containing photo
graphs of men who have registered
as being in the market for "gold
fish" wife.
These agents work as commits
sion basis, being paid by the bureau
managers who when a match is made,
charge 4 percent of the woman's
wealth, payable Immediately after the
marriage takes place, the bureau also
receiving certain percentage from the
successful man candidate, payable in
fnstallments, certain length Of time
after the wedding date.

recently that the names of 5000 mar
riageable women were listed on its
books and that there were only 1873

LANDRU BEHEADED
FRIDAY MORNING
FRENCH BLUEBEARD MEETS
DEATH ON GUILLOTINE OF
VERSAILLES

Versailles-(A. P)-Henri Landru
the "Bluebeard of France" convicted
murderer of ten women and one
youth, was beheaded at 6:05 Friday
morning. His head fell into the
basket as the first rays of dawn
cleaned in the sky.
Landru Indignantly declined the op-
portunity to make confession.
He died gamely. His face was
deathly pale but he walked from his
jail door to the guillotine unaided. He
gave the guillotfne one look, squared
his shoulders and walked erect to his
death.
Story Of His Crimes
Landru, arrested on April 4, 1919,
on II counts of murder growing out
of the disappearance of boy and 10
women to whom he had promised
marriage The charmer of 283 women
of all ages from 20 to go, many of
them foolish and wealthy widows, was
born in Paris in 1869. He was a me-
chanical engineer and had been well
educated.
Landru had previously engaged the
attention of the police through his
swindling operations for which he was
sentenced to prison for a term OF
four years. He was married and had
two grown children. He was a dark
visaged man with shining bald head
and long, black whiskers and during
the progress of his trial for murder,
which began November Z, 1921, before
the Versailles Assizes and ended the
following November 80, he partici-
pated dramatically in his own defense.
Is Own Attorney
The backbone of his defense was
that there was an absolute lack CT
dead The legal accusations against
of evidence which required three
hours to read in court. About 125 wit
nesses appeared for the prosecution
and defense. A large quantity OF
charred bones and ashes, alleged to
be the remains of Landru's victims,
was brought to Versailles in five seal
ed cases as well as many of the per
sonal belongings found in the little
villa at Gambais where the modern
Bluebeard lured his fiancees to death.
Landru's motive in committing the
murders was the Sordid one of rob
bing the women of their meager say
ings. The police proved that he rent
ed the cottage at Gambais, few miles
from Paris, advertised in various mat
rimonial papers and enticed his vic-f
Tins to the villa where all trace of
them was lost
After his arrest the house was ran
sacked and practically demolished by
the police in an effort to find the re-
mains of the missing women. A few
bones were unearthed as well as some I
hair but not enough to form Il corpus
delicti. The Bluebeard, according to
the police, killed his victims and in
cinerated the bodies in a cook Sotve.
