ing to information which was impart-
ed to Professor Charles r. Hender-
sons class in sociology at the Uni
versity Of Chicago
Supt. William G. Graves of the
James G. King Home for Old Men,
made the statement in a lecture on
THE Broken Family"
only one man in 10000 is self
supporting at the age of seventy
years, according to the statistics"

Interesting Discovery in an Old
Texas House.
Dagger, Crimson With Blood Rust Of
Centuries, and Ancient Spanish
Pieces of Eight Found
In Old Pot.

San Antonio, Texas.-Still crimson
with the blood rust of centuries,
dagger was found in the walls of an
adobe building in San Antonio, and in
another part of the house was found
copper pot containing pieces of
eight. 1t is regarded as the most
historical production which Texas has
yielded in many years and the coins
have been sent to Tiffany In New
York for valuation.
Charles Arnaud and Gus Loeloff, his
brother-in-law, were tearing down an
ancient structure, used in bygone days
as fandango hall, when their picks
came in contact with something that
rang differently from the flint rock
which composed part of the walls.
They took their pocket knives and
scraped away the mortar and discov-
cred what resembled a teapot.
Extracting this vessel from it's coat
ing, they dug a flint rock from its
opening, where the lid should have
been. At first spider webs obscured
their view, but after wiping these
away they could see dimly that there
was something at the bottom Of the
pot. 1t proved to be eight Spanish
coins, covered with dust. How the
dust got there 1t Is impossible to say.
as the large opening Of the teapot was
closed and the spout was so small
that only few drops at a time could
have been poured from it, And in ad-
dition the hole was inclosed in the
solid wall.
Local scientists will tackle the prob
lem of how the spiders entered the
pot-whether they were in it before
the wall was closed, or whether they
crept through some infinitesimal crack
and thence into the spout of the pot.
Quien sabe?
The dagger has pearl handle,
carved by hand, carrying a feathery
design on one side and on the other
a shield and leaves. At one end it
has guard almost as large as those
Of the swords used by the crusaders
bearing bas relief Of VOLTS head
At the other end it has a similar orna
ment, the head of some animal which
has not yet been identified.
The blade is seven inches long
sharp on one side and thick on the
other Its point is vet in fine shape
and could do deadly work. 1t has pc
culiar red stains, believed to have
been caused by blood. This weapon
was found near the top of the wall
hidden by mortar. and 1t is thought II
was tossed there for the purpose Of
concealment.

FIND QUEER HOARD
IS LITTLEST BABY OF ALL
Champion Lightweight Babe of MedI.
cal History Is Born In
New York.

New York.-The champion light
weight baby of the entire history Of
medical practice, according to New
York physicians, Is being carefully
guarded in an incubator at the Lying
In hospital, Second avenue and Sew
enteenth street, for fear the faint
spark of life it possesses may expire
at any moment. Nevertheless, its
chance for existence seems favorable
1t weighs only twenty ounces.
1t owes its present mold on life to
DR.. Charles H. Goldsmith of 1910
Lexington avenue, who. first believ-
ing the little girl, born prematurely,
had come into the world dead, later
noticed slight twitch of one of the
eyelids. He then revived the infant
by breathing into its mouth. Mrs.
Mary O'Connor of 1896 Eighth avenue
is the mother of the child, and at the
time of it's birth was suffering with
whooping cough
After DR.. Goldsmith had been hur-
riedly summoned to the O'Connor
home he told the parents, after care
fui examination, that the baby was
dead. The physician was astonished
at the diminutive size of the infant.
An eight-pound baby is not consid-
cred large one, yet this little new
conner was only one-sixth the weight
of an eightpound baby.
AS it lay on soft material arranged
on a table, the father, hearing the
doctors verdict, started out to find an
undertaken. A few minutes afterwards
the physician noticed slight move
ment of an eyelid. The father return
ed a few minutes later, having ar
ranged for the burial, to find the
physician working to revive the child,
though the appliances usually used In
such cases were lacking and there
was no time to send for them.

RARE BLACK WOLF KILLED
Animal Is So Young ae to indicate
the Presence of Others
In the Vicinity.

Chico, Cal.--William Lewis of Para
disc, near here, claims the distinction
Of killing the first black wolf ever
encountered in this portion of the
state. He met the animal late at
night on the main road leading into
Paradise and was especially attracted
by it's glaring eyes and bowling.
Its fur is of the finest texture and
the animal itself was apparently
young. indicating that there was a
family of the species located in the
thick forests of the Paradise-Magalia
section.

now laid to the door of the unusual
animal that more or less inhabits the
mountainoas regions of cold climates
as in Canaha and the far north.

Tangier. Morocco.-Damascus is

acknowledged to be the second old.
est. Tangier lies on the north coast
of Morocco, facing the straits OF
Gibraltar, and is about thirty miles
from the great fortress. A steamer
plies between Gibraltar and Tangier
When the steamer arrives at the
Moorish capital, there is a great hub.

BILE among themselves as to who
shall get the most passengers. Being
a stranger you would perhaps rather
stay on board the steamer than trust
yourself to the dusky, bowling mob.
But there is no other way of getting
ashore, and as the view of the town
is limited from the deck of the steam.
er, you find yourself bundled into a
corner of the boat and the Moorish
boatmen pull for the shore. AS soon
as you set foot on the landing stage,
you are besieged by crowd of guides.
1t Is in vain you tell them their serv
ices are not required, and so in order
to get peace you hire the services OF
a big lanky Arab. You need not fol
low him where he wants you to go,
but as you have provided yourself

mitted to President Taft a plan
which, he hopes, will bring peace,
and insure, permanent freedom from
unrest in his country.
Regarding his plans. Senior Dom
inguez said:
The plan ! have in view is that
the land owners of Mexico join with
the government in giving the poor
people access to the land At pres
ent 1000 families own all the land
in Mexico There are 100000 per
sons who own nothing and have no

THE way to pacify the poor peo-
pie is to give them an interest in
something. AS the situation stands
they can earn more in two hours

JAMES MULL|GAN IS
APPOINTED COACH
Of HILLTOP TRACK
Large Number of Men to Re-
port at Hilltop for
Practice.

James v. Mulligan, former quarter
miller of the Georgetown University
track team, is today in charge of the
runners at the Hilltop, having received
the appointment as coach for the year
from the athletic board. Mulligan has
had a world OF experience at the game,
and with a wealth of material that Is
reporting for the team this year should
haves little difficulty in getting out a
first-class team.
That no time is to be lost in getting
the men at work is seen by Mulligan's
first action as coach. All members of
the track team reported yesterday, and
the squad was taken over a cross coun-
try course. which is to serve for the
work outs in developing a long distance
team.
Muiligan is optimistic over the OUT
look, and has every hope that the men
under his charge will be able to main
tain the reputation established last
year. That Georgetown Is to have a
well balanced team Is seen from the
number of men who have reported, the
squad being augmented by many local
men whose reputation as runners have
already been established.
