Suppositon That They Were Buried
Near Where They Fell
In Battle.

Oregon City. White excavating
for a basement near the river bank
men employed by Frank Busch have
uncovered 20 skeletons OF Indians in
one hole
The bodies are supposed to be the
remains of Indians killed In battle. for
in one or two cases arrow heads bave
been found caught between the bones
The first trace Of the bones was
found early in the week when the
workmen uncovered skull. II was
buried by itself and Mr. Busch. who
has studied the find carefully. believes
that 1t belonged to a chief or leader
To prevent disturbing the bones the
workmen began excavating In another
place and they found a hole with
radius of about six feet which Mr.
Busch estimates contains the bones
OF a: least twenty Indians The skele
tons are lying like the spokes OF
wheel with the skulls in the center
Over the top of the grave was thick
hard crust of baked CLAY that was
hardened like stone.

Girl Paul Rexeres for zeps.

Girl Paul Reveres now give warning
of the approach of zeppelins over
London. They are telephone operators
attached to the telephone and who
have volunteered to ride a bicycle
around to rouse their colleagues. All
go to the exchanges where there is
rush of business every time there is an
impending raid.
There are now 420 women on night
duty at the London telephone ex-
changes, and when there is threat
ened raid hundreds more can be called
out. Between so and so per cent of
the girls are on duty within half an
hour of the call being sent out.

studying the hieroglyphs the author
explains that in Maya inscriptions the
glyphs are usually arranged in parai-
time from left to right at the top
Some inscriptions, however, occur in
horizontal bands, in which case they
are read from left to right, taking
two glyphs at time. Unlike the Egyp-
tians. the Maya complicated their
writing by varying and augmentIng
their elemental forms until a com
plete symmetrical picture. filling the
whole allotted space. was evolved. For
this reason there appear to be many
forms with the same meaning. which
have to be analyzed for their essential
characteristics. In some cases two en-
tirely different forms represent the
same thing. and again the writer's in
dividual peculiarities in style caused
variations which are puzzling to the
student. Careless drawing and even
the material employed also caused va
riations and difficulties. which, togeth-
er with those mentioned. have led the
author to use another form of classi-
Atohioh Ahah py appear aioht+
He advocates an arrangement into
two groups. the first consisting of the
glyphs used in counting, and the sec
ond, those having an explanatory
meaning. Most of the glyphs whose
meanings have been determined fall
within the first group. though the
names of the principal gods, the signs
of the cardinal points and their asso-
ciated colors, and some glyphs with
astronomical Significance. are included
in the second.
Mr. Morley says that the theory
most generally accepted is that the
Maya glyphs are chiefly ideographic.
each presenting some complete
thought, although they are sometimes
phonetic also. This kind of writing
has been called ikonomatic. but II is
more familiarly known to us as rebus
or puzzle writing. The picture of an
eye, for instance, recalls not an eye
but the sound of the word, and means
the personal pronoun |. the principle
being that OF homophones. or words
and characters which sound alike but
have different meanings. such as were
used also by the Aztecs in their pic
ture-writings.
Maya Time Reckoning.
The writer devotes a chapter to
Maya time reckoning. another to ar.th-
metic; he then enters into detailed
study and translation of the inscrip
tions found on monuments, and finally
takes up the texts drawn from the co
dices or hieroglyphic manuscripts

searches that the oldest dated anti

MEAL-TIME CONSCIENCE.
What Do the Children Drink7

There are times when mother or
father feeds the youngsters something
that they know children should not
have. Perhaps it is some rich dessert
but more often Il is tea or coffee.
1t is better to have some delicious,
hot food drink that you can take your
self and feed to your children. con-
scious that 1t will help and strength
en-, but never hurt them.
A Yorkstate lady says: 81 used
coffee many years in spite of the con-
viction that 1t injured my nervous sys-
tenn and produced my nervous head
aches. While visiting a friend was
served with Postum and l determined
to get a package and try 1t myself.
The result was ali that could be de-
sired-a delicious. finely favored, rich
ly colored beverage. Since ] quit cof-
fee, Postum has worked wonders for
me.

CONFLICT OVER
FOSSIL REMAINS
Unusual Case Tried Over Bones
OF Mastodon in Tennessee
Court.
BOYS MAKE THE DISCOVERY
Courts Are Asked to Decide Whether
the Remains Belong to Discov-
erer or the Owner
of the Farm.


Halls. Tenn.-An unusual case has
Just been tried over the bones OF a
mastodon by the Lauderdale county
circuit court at Ripley. Term. A few
weeks ago two little boys. David Oar
nell and Cherrell Boone, were setting
traps on the farm of N. ID. Salisbury.
nVe miles northwest of here One
of the boys hurt his foot on what
they thought to be the end of large
horn. Their Curiosity was aroused
by the unusual size OF the object. and
the Boone boy went for his father
to assist them In digging It out.
Tusk Weighs % Pounds.
The father. Ellis Boone, came with
implements and dug out tusk
weighing 9S pounds and 5 feet
inches long. Another tusk was
found. but was broken in prying It
out Of the ground. A jawbone with
four teeth was unearthed. The teeth,
when removed from the bone. weighed
five and a fourth pounds each and
We're in perfect condition. Several
other bones were found.
There was also found the jawbone
Oh some other animal. with the teeth
In It, The back teeth of this animal
are an inch long and worn. denoting
that 1t was very aged when It died.
Salisbury contended that as the
bones were found on his farm they
were his. He had them replevined
from Boone. Boone contended that
by right of discovery they should be
his
Goes to Supreme Court.
The hearing was before Esquires
kinley and Dunavant. One thousand
people were present. A decision was
rendered in favor of Salisbury Boone
then appealed to the circuit court and
that court decided in Boone's favor.
Now Salisbury appeals to the supreme
court of the state and that high body
will pass on the case.
Local authorities are of the opinion
that there is no law, ancient or mod
ern, to just fit the case. and that the
final decision will govern all such
cases in the future. Salisbury was
represented In the trial by t. C. Cor.
don OF Dyersburg and W. C. Patten
of Halls. Boone was represented by
w. N. Beasley OF Halls.

been the only party within n con-
siderable distance who didn't mani
