MUMMIES GIVEN
LIFELIKE COLOR
Prof. Wilder Says He Can Fill Slrunk-
en- Bodies as They Were Before
Dcath

An interview is published here with
Prof Harris Hawthorne Wilder of
Smith College, in which he tells of the
discovery of a process for restoring
to their original state the shrunken
features of mummies.
Through the use of a weak solu-
tion of caustic potash, Prof. Wild
er says he has restored the bodies and
features of number of mummies of
the race of American cliff dwellers so
completely that the color of the skin.
the contour of the features and even
diseases of the skin became easily dis
tinguishable.
a dried frog which had been lying
in his laboratory for year was his
first subject. one night before retir-
ing he tossed this flattened and al
most shapeless object into a vat of
potash At the time he was not GER
tain whether it was frog or a toad,
so completely had its distinguishing
marks been lost in the drying. The
next morning he was astonished to
find what appeared to be a live frog
with all the natural colors and mark
mgs clearly shown. floating upon the
surface of the potash.
This led Prof. Wilder to begin at
once experiments upon mummified
small animals, and finally upon the
mummies of ancient races.

Jacks" INVADE VALLEY.
Eastern Oregon Pests Migrating TO
Western Oregon.

Salem. ore, Oct. S-The jackrab-
bit. which in some years has been the
greatest pest of the inland empire, is
invading the Willamette valley, ac-
cording to returning pheasant hunt
ers. oswald West railroad commits
sioner. and Webster Holms of this
city. returned from a hunting expe-
dition yesterday and among other
game they killed was monster black
tailed jackrabbit such as was hither-
to supposed to exist only in the east
ern part of the state. Other hunter:
around Salem report seeing them oc-
casionally.
For awhile it was thought these
large, swift footed rabbits were Bel
gian hares. 1t will be remembered
that not many years ago there devel-
oped a mania for breeding Belgian
hares. There was no market for the
animals however, the fad ceased and
many people rather than kill their
pets turned many of them loose in
the woods and fields.
Hunters say that the Belgian hare
could not live in the woods because
II was unused to finding its own fare.
Furthermore, those familiar with the
black-tail say that the specimens be-
ing taken in the valley are the east
ern Oregon Jack" the chief despair
of the inland empire grain growers
and stockraisers.
Jackrabbits are prolific mammals
and it is feared If they ever get a foot
hold in the valley they will be diff
cult to eradicate. The forests will
give them shelter and "drives" will
be impracticabe. Different seasons
are favorable TO jackrabbits and it is
supposed the long dry fall has had
something to do with the large num-
Der seen in the Willamette valley.
