but some of the facts concerning his
life are just becoming known. One of
these is the story of his marriage,
which has just been revealed by Prof.
James II. Breasted of the university
Of Chicago in his first preliminary re-
port of his expeditions among the tenn
pies along the Nile. He found the ac-
count of this event In the sun temple
of Abu Simbel, which is one of the
principal buildings erected by King
Rameses. To tell the story 1t required
an inscription of forty-one lines, each
about s feet long. Prof. Breasted re-
ports that the word for Snow Is
found here in snowless Egypt for the
first time IN human history.

JAPANESE CASE UP TO HOUSE
Senate Has Passed Resolution Which
Roosevelt Asked For.

nOOoCNSit fNSNCO TUT
Washington-The state department
is awaiting the disposition by congress
of the pending immigration bill be-
fore proceeding further with the con-
sideration of the Japanese exclusion
question. If the bill is enacted an
immediate effort will be made to come
to a formal agreement with the Japan
ese government that will insure the
continuance of the present policy of
that government OF Withholding pass
ports to America to Japanese laborers.
So far as the pending bill is concerned
it is stated that there is every reason
to believe that it will be acceptable to
Japan. At any rate there has not yet
been the faintest sign Of disapproval
in that quarter.
An interesting fact that has de-
veloped in the discussion of the re-
spective rights of state and nation
where treaties are involved is that in
at least one case the California courts
have taken the most advanced grounds
in favor of the supremacy of the trea-
ties, in one instance holding that the
treaty right of aliens to possess real
estate could not be destroyed by a
state law.
The conference report on the imni'
grafton BILL which includes the Japan
csc coOlie paragraph, was adopted
without roll call in the senate.
