Kept Bombs Out Of Aeroplanes.

Washington. June :3O.-By and by
some inspired war correspondent in
Mexico will tell of h%ydroplanes Of our
government "laden with bombs."
But there's no need of going any
further, because the hydroplane will
not be laden with bombs-at least
not with bombs that are spelled with
two BIS; because that sort Of thing
is against the conventions of The
lIague-and because that particular
prohibition was put in those conven-
tons at the suggestion Of General Will
liam Crozier. chief of the bureau of
ordnance-and because General Crozier
is just the sort of soldier who would
have an aviator crucificd for disobcy-
ing al order of that kind.

Pyramid Gives Up Jewels.

London, June 29.-Dr. Flanders Pc.
trie, professor of Egyptology at Univer.
sity college. London, has returned with
a hoard Of jewels discovered in a brick
pyramid Of Senusert. H.. 34OO Il. c..
sixty miles southwark Of Cairo.
Professor Petrie and other members
Of the British School Of Archaeology
In Egypt explored the pyramid in Feb
ruary and found fourteen tombs of a
royal family. one of which contained
the treasure. In this pyramid a granite
s%arcophagus of a princess had been
broken open and everything it con.
tanned distracted.
However, a small recess near by on
being cleaned Of the hardened mud
with which it was choked was found to
contain a pound weight of golden
beads and a golden diadem consisting
Of a band of FURNISHED gold with an or
n%alnentation Of high plumes Of gold
standing up and streamers of gold de-
scending down the back and sides. The
whole thing is more than eighteen
inches high and resembles the crown
painted on the statue Of Nefert..
The party also discovered in the pyra-
mid two golden pectorals inlaid with
lazuli and green fcldspar with other
commentators. They also found col
lars of golden cOwries and double lion
heads. ench of which is more than an
inch wide. Further finds were made Of
golden armlets, bracelets and n toilet
outfit. besides smaller ornaments. gold
handled razors and other things.
Part Of the treasure is in the Cairo
museum. The remainder has been
brought to England and will be exhib-
tied next month.

Mexico's Queerest City.

Ell Paso, Tex. June 29.-Though sep
arated only by Il river from the Unit
ed States, Mexico to us is still large
ly a foreign land, not only in fact.
but in spirit. Notwithstanding our geo
graphical %nearness, we have in reality
always been strangers to the Mcxicans
a people whose ideas and ideals are
so distinctively different from our own
that we cannot judge them by our own
standards in the least. Curious GUS
toms and strange sights often give
convincing evidence of Il civilization
utterly remote in its origin from ours.
Among the spots out of the beaten
track, but which just low has come
more into the limelight of publicity, is
Zacatecas, which lies near the City of
Mexico. 1t is the capital and chief
city of the state of that name and is
situated 439 miles from the City Of
Mexico. This quiet little city of 10000,
perched high among the mountains, is

Walking In Deep Water.

Cleveland, o., June 3O.-Calculations
OF the worlds leading physicists are
apparently upset by the results of ex
periments conducted by Father Fred
Odcnbach, professor of astronomy and
physics at st. Ignatius' college here.
He has proved that the human body is
actually lighter than water.
The startling thing about Fathc-
Odenbach's conclusions is that he be-
licves that they may be used to make
involuntary drowning a physical i'm.
possibility. Theoretically, he says. it
is that now. and he looks forward to
the day when it will be practically 80.
He says he has found Il way to walk in
deep water without drowning.
Through his calculations, Father
Odenbach asserts, lie has found the
center point Of stability of the body
when immersed in water and that the
problem Of remaining alloat is merely
a question of balance, which can be
regulated by the ann of holding
the head. He made several expert.
ments in the college na~tatorium and
says he walked in water beyond his
depth without threading water, main.
