II Laws Are Not En-
forced

Minot. limiting at the removal Of
some city officials in the event that all
laws, and particularly those bearing
upon the liquor traffic and gambling,
were not enforced. Mayor n |. Hal.
vorson addressed a special message
to the city commission. He referred
to persistent 'rumors which have come
to him recently Of open violations of
the prohibition and gambling laws, and
insisted that these particular meas.
ures be enforced to the letter.
Mayor Halvorson contends that it is
out Of the question for such establish
ments to operate successfully if the
police officers and state and county
officials, directly chargeable with law
enforcement. are in any measure ac-
tice. He intimated that officers who
are lax will be removed and that prop
erty rented for unlawful purposes will
be subject to Injunction proceedings.

colonel is J. H. Frame of Grafton. but
it is understood he desires To retain

rather than manage them from desk

good authority that in case the ad.

else, Henry will receive some other
good appointment from Mr.. Hanna.

SCHOOL GETS TROJAN VASES
Group Of Antiquities Excavated From
Site Of Ancient City Destroyed
500 g. C..

Austin, Tex-When the late Judge
A. w. Terrill was minister to Turkey
he collected remarkable group Of
antiquities, and these, by his will just
filed for probate, he leaves to several
friends and the University Of Texas.
To the university he gives three
genuine Trojan vases presented to
him by Consular Agent Frank Calvert,
who lived at the Dardanelles and
owned the site of ancient Troy. Mr.
Calvert co-operated with Doctor
Schliemann in making the excavations
of Troy.
Doctor Schliemann says these vases
came from King Priam's treasure
house. The vases we're found twenty
feet below the surface, and when ex-
cavated were coverd with carbonate
Of lime. It was cleaned. of by Judge
Terrell. In his will Judge Terrell rec
ords that he spent two days at the
site Of these excavations, and it is
his belief that the destruction of Troy
was contemporaneous with the Aegean
civilization. Herodotus writes that
it was destroyed B. c. 500.
It Is understood they are the only
genuine Trojan vases in America and
are presented to the University of
Texas on condition that they be de-
posted in separate locked recep-
tacle prepared for them as was done
in the case of the old Greek tenth
century manuscripts of the four gos-
pels previously presented to the uni
versity by Judge Terrell
