Evidence Found by r. F. Glider te
Prove Traditions of the Omaha
Indians.

Omaha, Neb.-Tradition among the
Omaha Indians to the effect that a
tribe Of cannibals once lived in the
Valley of the Missouri have been ver-
flied apparently by discoveries made
recently near this city by persons OPP
Grating under the direction of r. F.
Glider, a well-known archaeologist.
The Omaha Indians came to this
region from the Ohio river about 800
years ago. These pioneers heard
from other Indians who then lived
here of the former existence of a
tribe that ate human flesh. Inquiry
among other tribes that had formerly
been in the valley showed that they
had the same tradition, and persons
interested in uncovering the history
of the early inhabitants of America
undertook to learn If there was truth
in these tales.
The search has been going on for
eight years. At the beginning it was
found that some race had lived on the
bluffs of the Missouri in dugouts,
which at times were 10 feet deep and
were rooted with poles over which
we're laid twigs, grass, and earth. Ii,
the floors of these were caches In

WILD DEER DIMES IN GARDEN
Enjoys Meal of Physicians Lettuce,
Then Dashes Back Into the
Forest.

Lenox, Nashville on the lawn
at Halidon hall, in Stockbridge, DR.,
William Gilman Thompson saw a Wild
deer stalk down the mountainside
nearby, enter his garden, nibble at the
lettuce for a few moments and make
off to the forest again. All last sea
son there were three or four deer
about Halidon hall, and several times
this month Dr. Thompson's employees
had to drive them off the estate.
DR.. Thompson has forbidden any
one to shoot the animals, although
they have a right to do so under the
Jaw Of this state. The physician said
he wished the deer would keep out Of
his garden. Halidon hall is about g
mile and half from Stockbridge Cen.

MOTORS FOR SHIPS

the Jupiter. The Cyclops is equipped
with triple expansion reciprocating
engines and the Neptune is equipped
with a pair Of steam turbines with
gear reduction.
The electrical equipment of the Jupi-
ter was given a thorough test a few
days ago before a party of naval off,
GERS. The test showed beyond doubt
that electricity is the ideal power for
battleships and other large steam
ships. Nearly all the work aboard a
modern battleship, exclusive Of pro-
pulsion, is now done by electricity
and there Is no reason why they
should not be completely electrified.
1nasmuch as the Curtis steam turbines
take but little room, and the motors
even less. there is no reason why the
available horsepower of future battle
ships could not be much larger than
at present, thus increasing their speed
beyond the present record and max
ing them more efficient The saving
of the power now lost in battleships
driven by reciproctaing engines would
make a vast difference in the speed
records.

TO JAIL TO SHIELD FATHER
Boy Thief Wouldn't Even Reveal
Name to Escape Penalty on
Theft Charge.

Atlantic City, N. J.-Harry Stein,
sixteen years old, of No. SO7 Green
wood avenue, Jenkintown, Pa, was be-
fore Judge E. A. Higbee In the Ju-
venile court on the charge OF having
stolen ST from William Shayne of No.
1912 Parrish street, Philadelphia.
Shayne told how he had befriended
the boy here three weeks ago. giving
him food and shelter after finding him
penniless and half-starved on the
street, only to wake up one morning
and find him missing and the money
gone. The court was inclined toward
leniency.
Write to your father, get 81, return
1t to ShayDe, and I'll let you go on pa
role" Judge Higbee said.
The boy refused to do this or even
reveal his fathers name, so the 1udD
sentenced HIN to six years In the
Jamestown reformatory. The boy
took the sentence stoically.

BARRIERS ARE PUT IN PLIGHT
Consul In China Reports Market for
Supplies Upset by Recent Re-
form Order.

Washington.-Consul G. I. L. Will
liams, from Shatow China, sends in
word that the recent edict in China
which commands that all cues be sew
cred has rather upset the market in
that country for BARRIERS supplies.
There is somewhat Of tendency
to do away with BARRIERS altogether,
although BARRIERS, the consul adds,
never did thrive particularly WELL
inerants-tonsorial artists who car
ried their kits about with them and
who never went to the trouble of es-
tablishing permanent stands-were
the rule rather than the exception.
A good many families now consider
that hair clipper, which costs about
$135, is all that IS necessary. The
outlook for the sale of razors is very
poor, the consul reports, since the Gus
tom of shaving the head has given
place to home hair cutting. The jap
anese have entered the field and are
retailing a safety razor for about IS
cents. American money.

possessed distinctly better abilities
than the mother the children without

the lesser ones.
A curious point in the statistical
tables prepared by DR.. Peters from
his material is that for reading and

correspondent closely to those OF the
parents; for arithmetic, less so; for
grammar. again less, and least of all
