ARMED INDIANS
DEFY OFFICERS
Angry Utes Refuse to Surren-
der Leader for Murder.
Fortified in Mountains, With Rifles
and Ammunition, Are Big
Rabbit and Friends.

Cortez, Colo.-Determined not to
deliver Big Rabbit, one of their tribes
men, to the county authorities to an
swer charge of assault, the so Ute
Indians who are entrenched in the
mountains 18 miles from here, defied
sheriff's posse of 100 men.
The Indians fortified their position
after they left the Ute reservation in
Southern Colorado, and declare they
will fight the white men to death
rather than give up Big Rabbit.
Indian Agent Spear has been appeal
ed to by the county authorities, in the
hope that he might be able to induce
the Indians to return to the reserva-
ton and surrender Big Rabbit.
Spears advances, however, were re-
buffed, and he has telegraphed the In
terror department in Washington for
instructions. Spear said he would
take no further action until he had
heard from Washington.
AS soon as the Utes learned that
Big Rabbit was wanted by the sheriff,
who would place him under arrest to
face the charge of having shot Joseph
Vichel, a Mexican sheepherder, the
Indians friends departed with him in
to the mountains.
All are armed with repeating rifles
and are said to be amply supplied with
ammunition. Sheriff Gawith learned
Sunday of the revolt. With a few
deputies he fastened to the Indians
stronghold, but was met by threaten
ing rifles. A messenger friendly to
the Indians was sent to talk with the
leaders of the band. They refused to
enter into any agreement which meant
the surrender of their companion.
The sheriff retreated to Cortez and
swore in 100 deputies, thinking he
could awe the Indians into submission
by show of greater strength. When
the posse arrived at the pass where
the Indians were fortified it was found
that the spirit of defiance of the In
dams had greatly increased. The
sheriff retreated, seeking the aid of
Indian Agent Spear.

Olympia, Wash. The first bill
ever introduced in Washington legis-
lature by woman was house bill No.
1, introduced by Mrs. N. JOHN Croake,
of Tacoma, providing a minimum

Mrs. Croake had her measure all
prepared and the instant it was in or
der to introduce bills she presented
hers, which received the first place in
shower of II bills of all descriptions
and from all parts of the state. Mrs.
Croake's bill provides minimum
wage for women and girls in any line
at $1.25 day, or 16 cents an hour
where engaged in piecework.

RESUME WAR WITHIN WEEK
Balkan Allies Will No Longer Toll
crate Delays of Turks.

London-Unless unforeseen events
should change the current of affairs.
war in the Near East will be resumed
within week.
The allies, convinced that the Turks
merely are drifting, without fixed
policy, have determined to end the
seemingly fruitless debates and wire
pulling by resuming military opera
lions where they were left off more
than month ago.
The Balkan kingdoms, moreover,
are anxious to obtain relief from the
heavy burden of maintaining armies
on a war footing indefinitely. Wish
ing, however, to observe all diplo-
matte courtesies, they have given the
powers reasonable time to agree on
the note regarding Adrianople, frame
it and present it to Turkey. If Tur-
key, as seems probable, fails to yield
to the note, the Balkan kingdoms have
agreed that they will call another sit
ting of the conference through Sir Ed
ward Grey or Rechad Pasha, who, ac-
cording to the rotation followed,
would be the next presiding officer,
and announce definitely their decision
to break off negotiations.
Immediately afterward the Servian,
Bulgarian and Montenegro command
ers will notify Turkish headquarters
that hostilities will be resumed within
SO hours.
The allies have no faith in the eff
cheney of the note the powers will
present to Constantinople. The Otto
man government has failed to convene
the grand council, and apparently has
no intention of meeting the allies ul-
timatum on Adrianople. The allies
feel that the note of the powers is
couched in too mild terms to be effec-
tive, and that Turkey will know that
it means nothing, because the powers
will be unable to agree on coercive

FINDS SECRETS OF SPHINX
Harvard Savant Finds Great Image
Tomb of King.

Boston That he has discovered the
secrets of the Sphinx has been made
known to the authorities of the Har-
ward Scientific Museum and the Boston
Museum of Fine Arts, by Professor G..
A.. Reisner, the Harvard Psychologist.
Inside the Sphinx he found temple
dedicated to the sun. It is older than
any of the pyramids, and its date is
somewhere around 5000 B. c., the
most ancient in Egyptian history. The
tomb of Mena, the king, who posed as
a god and who fashioned the Sphinx,
is also within it. There are tunnels
leading off into caverns which have
not yet been penetrated, for the work
has been going on only six months.
The Sphinx is carved out Of natural
rock, but within are caves and build
ings of a city of gold, which was per-
haps once open to the air.
At present the excavations are con-
fined to chamber. The head of this
chamber is 60 feet long by IA wide.
It is connected by tunnels with the
temple Of the sun, which rests within
the paws of the Sphinx.
Such relics as the "Crux Anastea''
Qooped cross), symbol of the sun, are
found by the hundreds. Inside the
Sphinx are also tiny pyramids, al
though the Sphinx was built long be-
fore the real pyramids.
According to Professor Reisner, the
Egypt of today covers one vast city,
the edge of which has been scratched,
and the interior of which probably
never will be disclosed.

Most appropriate for this season of
the year, becoming dark colors have
precedence in millinery. In the We
lours, browns and, similar fabrics
which are SO much used, the darker
colors are always most beautiful.
These are frequently accentuated and
relieved from too extreme somberness
by a touch of white. The hat in the
drawing has a charmingly rolled brim
of unexaggerated lines, but with the
modisA extension of brim Of the side.
This hat is of black velvet, with high
square crown, against which beau
tiful breast and wings Of white stands
out in bold relief. Two supplementary
wings increase the length of the sides.

PERKINS SAYS
PUBLICITY CURE
Concentration of Wealth Might
w. Become Real Peril.
birat;on of Brain Power, If
'p harmful, Should be Restrained
By Government Control

uo.bington, D. C.-In hypotheti-
" .nestion to George W. Perkins,
cal q"I Irntermyer, counsel for the
oalnuo or trust committee, outlined
mum the records of the committee a
from nnoontration of money and cred
c =" and asked whether Mr.. Perkins
H. ,;dered it "a menace and peril to
t .Sn nrosperity of the country" The
'is aItion generally was accepted as
q T Trntermyer's conception of the
n l,.icp so-called money trust of which
s tba committee is in search.
I'll, N.Y. Perkins, after declaring the
.,ory reminded him of the conun-
G dr,m why is a mouse when it
u l;ns " asserted that he could not say
sg hntbpr concentration as outlined in
t G question was peril.
Mr. Untermyer's hypothetical
nnonev trust" question was put after
Nv perkins had recommended publ
WV ';+r as a cure for financial evils, the
t ;nIcsornoration of the New York Stock
Exchange under a Federal charter, a
a J responsibility among bank di-
r roctors and the according of represen-
totion on the directorate to minority
stockholders.
Mr. Perkins delivered long talk on
economies, the gist of which was:
Everyone will agree that at a GER
tain point concentration would be a
noril but whether at the point you
cav it has reached it would be peril,
I cannot say. l have been out of
touch with these affairs for two years,
and would want to study these ques-
tons very carefully. I'm opposed to
the concentration of money power,
brain power, or energy where the con-
centration is likely to result in harm. "
Mr.. Perkins, as a director Of the
Steel corporation and the Internation-
al Harvester company, is a defendant
in the governments suit for dissolu-
ton of those concerns.
"We never knew of the corpora
tons buying its own stock to protect
it in the market and know of no pools
to manipulate the market in steel
stocks, he said.
"Do you believe that directors
should be allowed to trade in the stock
of their own corporations, on advance
information secured by them through
their connection with the corpora
tom" asked Mr.. Untermyer.
81 do not" said Mr.. Perkins.
1.-THE Steel corporation was the first
big corporation to give entire publ
city to its affairs, was it not?" asked
Mr. Untermyer.
Eyes, so far as | know"
Mr.. Perkins said he believed all cor
pOratiOns should give publicity to all
their affairs.
What would you do about manipu-
latlon of prices to produce false val
ues?" asked Mr.. Untermyer.
We'll, that is a difficult question:"
said Mr.. Perkins. "That form of
gambling is indulged in even down to
the farmer who sells his wheat this
winter for delivery next spring."

NEED OF CARPETS FOR ROADS
English Expert Recommends Use of
an ELASTIC Skin" on the
Highways.

A lecture was recently delivered by
a member of the board before the
Royal Institute of London on THE
Road-Past, Present and Future" ac-
cording to Consular and Trade Re
ports. The lecturer said the problem
was to find the best mode by which
road should be constructed so that its
surface would not be broken by traf-
fic, so that the transit might be easier
for both passengers and goods, road
which would form neither puddle
holes nor exude mud from vehicles
and create no dust when the weather
was dry.
One thing was universally recog-
nized, that the road of the future
should be truly bound road in which.
whatever kind of stone was used. the
stone should be held together SO that
it would form a crust The lecturer
suggested that what he called a car
pet OF an elastic skin should be adopt
ed as the covering.
The carpet, he thought, should be
made of bituminous material mixed
with sand and placed on the, roads in
various thicknesses, according to the
nature of the traffic. 1t should go on
in liquid form. solidifying quickly, but
always remaining resilient and com
pressible, and so integrating with the
crust of the surface below.
The advantage OF such carpet. 1t
was said. would be to permanently
protect the crust. and. just as a carpet
on the floor softens the step, SO would
this carpet for the roads silence the
noise and reduce the shock of rolling
vehicles 1t was admitted that the or
iginal cost of a road so laid would be
more than that of q mud bound road.
but spreading the cost over series
of years it would probably not be SO
great, since the crust of the road IT.
