AN ANCIENT BRONZE
STATUETTE is FOUND

News of an important discovery
comes from Cairo. The report states
that bronze statuerte has been
found which may be of the time
when Joseph was sold into Egypt. 1t
seems to be the first discovered speci-
men of a Hittite deity executed in
the round. 1t represents a goddess
standing on the back of a llon whose
tongue Is protruding and tail turned
"Nn GODDESS wears the Cappado-
clan or Hittite style of tiara, and car
ries in her arms an infant held to
the breast. No features of the work
denote an Egyptian artist, but all
point to Syria and it is almost a pre-
else copy of the Hittite relefs upon
the ruined palaces at Boghaz, Kenoi
and elsewhere, in which the gods
stand upon the backs of animals.

CAT GIVES CLUE
TO BURGLARY

So bold have become the petty bur-
glars in this vicinity that the majes-
ty of the law does not clothe a person
in immunity from their activities
Therefore, when Justice of the Peace
Joe II. Parkes returns from his trip
into sunny California ii will be to
learn that his judicial dignity has been
given a grave affront by some indi-
vidual who evidently holds some ran
cor against him for his impartial ad-
ministration of justice. The offense
was nothing less than the burglary of
his residence which has been unoc-
cupied since his departure inasmuch
as his two younger daughters are both
in Portland and his wife staying at
the home of another daughter, Mrs.
Ralph Ham.
Saturday afternoon when Mrs.
Parkes went over to her home. she
discovered that a dozen silver spoons,
two rings and the judges trusty re-
volver were missing. The house was
locked and the covetous visitor had
evidently secured his entrance by a
pass key and had probably taken his
time for there We're no indications of
haste. Probably Mrs. Parkes would
not have suspected his visit had she
not found her cat in the house, the
burglar having forgotten to take it
out. He was careful, however, to
leave no clews for the officers.

LONDON HAS SERIOUS
IMMIGRATION PROBLEM

AS a matter of fact careful investi-
cation has developed that European
conditions as they now exist have
brought into London relatively
large number of men who are not
criminals in the ordinary sense, but
whether agitators, socialists or an
archists, show themselves ready to
use arms without hesitation in re-
pulsing arrest or the enforcement of
the law by the police. This immigra-
tion, not industrial, but anarchists
has vitality changed the conditions un-
der which peace is maintained in a
large city. 1t probably will have 'ts
influence upon the authorities who are
considering the appeal of the police
to be permitted to carry arms.
