MOSCOW Stores CLOSE
FOR FOOTBALL GAME

While Moscow merchants seldom
close their doors during business
hours, they feel that they are justi-
fled in doing so next Friday for the
football classic between the Wash
ington state college and the Univer-
sity of Idaho. 1t has been decided
therefore, by the leading places
of business, to close from2 o'clock to
5, giving belated purchasers chance
to do their shopping between o.
clock and closing time.
The Washington-Idaho game has
alwoys been of the greatest interest
and it has been the CUSTOM both in
Moscow and Pullman, n past iyears,
to close for this game, giving the
merchants and their clerks a chance
to witness this game and swell the
crowd. An early announcement is
made so that no one need be incon-
venienced by the stores being closed
for the three hours.

ANCIENT CITY is
FOUND ON ISLAND
Thriving Town Existed on Isle
RoyaIe, Lake Superior
1000 Years Ago.
COPPER ONCE MINED THERE
Archaeological Finds Traces of Town
After Three Years Search-Will
Head Expedition to Make Fur
ther Explorations.

Duluth, Minn.-William P. Ferguson,
archaeologist and author, of Franklin,
Pa, announced here that he had dis
covered the ruins of an ancient city,
Inhabited probably 1000 to 1000 years
ago, on Isle Royale, off the north shore
Of Lake Superior. Isle Royale is
part of the state of Michigan.
Mr.. Ferguson announced he would
return next summer with another ex-
pedition to conduct further explora
tions Of the city, which was situated,
he said, on the southerly side of the
island and consisted of a series Of
semi-underground dwellings.
Copper Mined There Long Ago.
"Most every one knows" Mr.. Fer
guson said in making known his dis
covery, that copper was mined on
Isle Royale many years ago on land
now covered with pine trees. The is
land is covered with traces of these
mines, and yet almost nothing has
been done to explore the workings.
mo one has found any of the re-
mains of the old miners, although there
are many stories of finding tempered
copper weapons. | have found several
stone hammers, each supplied with
thongs, and have been interested for
the last three years in establishing re-
ports that town existed on the south
of the island.
"a writer named Gilman was au-
thority for this report fifty years ago,
but his description and location were
so vague that it was impossible for
any one to make anything out of
them''
Waterfall Is Clew.
Mr.. Ferguson told of his first trip
in the region at the outlet of Sisli-
witt lake, which he said he thought
tailed with Glman's data, but there
was no trace of a town. Last year
he found waterfall which he thought
was the one mentioned in Gilman's
report. Because of the lateneSs of the
season, however, the explorer was un-
able to finish his work, he said, and so
made Il third trip this season with a
party of five assistants, but their first
efforts failed to locate the town.
AT length Mr.. Ferguson concluded
that q ridge, if located in the vicinity,
would answer a certain description of
the topography of the country as Civ
en- by the writer of a half century ago.
He continued his search, he said, and
finally was rewarded by finding what
he considers unmistakable traces of
town between Hay bay and the water
fall on the south side of Isle Royale.
