Second Coxey Army Threatens Capital

day crusade that 10 expected to shake
the walls of indifference and make It
possible for every man who wants It

Coxey was the leader Of the first
Of the great marches Of protest. His
men marched 20 far that the spirit OF
the column was gone long before II
came within striking distance OF
Washington. It was failure. The
army dwindled away. and but a hand
full OF those that started on the move

his lieutenants are studying the his
tory Of this march and hope to profit
by the mistakes OF Coxey and his
aids. How hopes to make this march

Cheap Land Clearing.

In the neighborhood Of Arlington.
washington, q partial solution OF the
problem OF clearing land cheaply has
been found In the use Of gasolene en-
sines equipped with cables and drums.

ment Is shown in the experience Of
one farmer.
With q gasolene engine Of local con-
struction and with the assistance Of
his two sons farmer living near

land and took out every stump during
one season. The time devoted to this
work was only that which could be
spared from the management Of a
dairy farm. On the particular farm In
question the actual expenditures for
gasolene and oil were but $50.

CURED HER BABY OF ECZEMA

cured it. Then the eczema broke out

months I doctored it but to no avail
Then it began at her nose and her

keep her in a dark room for two
weeks The doctor did no good, SO l
stopped him coming.
"For about two weeks I had used
Cuticura Soap for her every day,
then 1 got box of Cuticura Ointment
and began to use that. In a week
there was a marked improvement. In
all I used two cakes of Cuticura Soap
and one box Of Cuticura Ointment and
my baby was cured of the sores. This
was last November; now her hair is

within the past few months the public at large
did not know 9l the whereabouts of the Wash
ington will if indeed it even knew of the ex-
istence Of the paper. However the officials of
the state department and the library of con-
gress knew its resting place in an obscure
county courthouse in Virginia and whereas
they realized the futility of their ambition to
ever get permission to transfer it to Wash
ington, where it ought to repose as a great ma
t1onal relic, they still had sufficient interest In
ut to keep watchful eye it, so to speak
Some months ago it suddenly came to the
ears of these interested parties that the will
long known to be in poor state of preserva-
ton-Was in imminent danger of going utterly
to ruin. Obviously quick action and heroic
measures were necessary and thereupon there
was inaugurated that project which has lately
witnessed the complete restoration of the will

that the will is not and never has been in the

Temples of Babylon,

The Deutsche Orient-Gesellschaft gives an
interesting account of the past years excava-
ton work in thTee different parts of Babylon.
In the town quarter known as Kasr were
laid bare several hundred meters of a wall
about 35 feet thick, broken by numerous door
openings which We're originally fanked by
towers The most interesting find here was
coffin of burned clay the lid of which was
relief of a bearded head.
Near the north wall of the quarter known
as Sachn was discovered a system of drains,
built of brick, laid IN asphalt. Here were also
found several fragments of tablets with cunt
form inscriptions from the time of Nebuchad-
nezzar. This discovery enabled the excava-
tors to complete fragmentary tablets discover
ed some time before.
The legend proved to refer to the building
of the Zigurrat. the temple tower of Babylon

However, the worst experience of all came
