INTENSE GOLD IN EUROPE CONTINUES Slight Rise in Some Sections But Salfering Is Unabated London, Feb. 15.—UM—Europe continued today in the grip of an un- precedented cold wave. There was a slight increase in temperatures in some quarters, but generally there was no amelioration of the bitter cold. with snow and ice which have caused numerous deaths and wrought untold suffering. Speedy action at the coal mines in Czechoslovakia promised some re- lef to centers where fuel shortages had reached a serious stage but against this one favorable report there were many others of disrupted train service, isolated towns, and human misery. One particularly pathetic atory came from Poland, where a young peasant bride going from her native village to a church in Piotikow for her wedding found frozen to death in her sleigh. ‘Worst Snow in 140 Years The Riviera suffered from the ‘worst snow in 140 years.

The weather was described as the worst since 1895, Britons, unaccus- tomed to such, have suffered great- 1y. An eight inch snow fell at Dover, d the fall along the whole ch:mncl was the heaviest in years.

G, TRLLS NEXICO T0 FORGET ATTACK Frowns on Public Protest— Gatholic School Is Closed Mexico City, Feh. 15 —The dis- approval of President Emilio Portes Gil today caused cancellation of or- ders for a demonstration Sunday protesting the recent attempt on his life. The president thought the dem- enstration, in which labor and social organizations were o be enlisted, “would attempt to give undue fm- portance and keep public attention fixed on an affair which would bet- ter be forgotten.” The manifestat®n was planned by the mixed congressional commission which met Wednesday to consider the political situation following the exceution of Jose De Leon Toral last woek. he department of interfor has closed the Catholic school “Peanne Chezard” here and evieted 10 nuns charged with leading « community life in the school. Convents are pro- Dibited under the Mexican constitu- tion. The ‘mother supcrior, Maria Con- ecpeion Solis, said that she and her nuns belonged to the Order of the Incarnate Word. They were warned: they would be punished if they violated the re- ligious laws again. MEMORIAL DUPLICATE .

Mary Hill, Wash,, Stonchenge, built 4,000 ye: Britons as a place of worship, is be- ing duplicated by Klicktat county citizens as a memorial to their sol- | dicr dead. The memorial, to be May 30, was given to the county by Sam Hill, millionaire railroad man and philanthropist. The central pice in the memorial, as in Stonchenge, is a sacrificial altar. This, Mr. Hill believes, is symbolic of American soldiers who sacrificed their lives on the altar of patriotism. Foundations for the memorial| were started on June §. 1918, five months before the World wa The memorial, like the original in the south of England, is 108 feet in diameter. Each stone is moulded in- to a duplicate of the corresponding | stone in the English landmark. On many of the stones will be placed bronze plates upon which names of the soldier dead will Le carved.

Paul | STARYING ELX IN WEST SEEKING FOOD FROM MAN Herd of 100 Enters Utah Town ‘Where Game Officials Take Steps to Provide Nourishment. Salt Lake City, Feb, 15. UP—Deep snow that has covered the ground for weeks in Utah and Idaho has driven starved elk and other wild game to seck food from the hands of man. A herd of 100 elk descended from a forest range and entered the town of Millville, Utah, where officers of the state game department made preparations to care for the animals. At Boise, Idaho, a large bull elk. browsed contentedly on - the state captitol grounds. Senator W. P. Swanstrom lassoed the elk five miles from Boiee. Gaunt and hungry, a young bull elk was roped near Logan, Utab, and taken to the yards of the local sugar company where it was fed. To conserve feed which is being distributed for starving ducks, the Ada county fish and game league de- cided at Boise to attempt to dyna- mite upwards of .a million crows in a rookery on Lake Lowell. Seven hundred pounds of dynamite will be touched off next Sunday night in the rookery which covers about an acre. Towns Get First Food Durango.

A string of 20 pack mules carried bulky packages of mail and provi- sions to the towns.
