Specimens and pho- tographs have also, l believe, been sent to Tokio for expert examination The various experts will doubtless in due time pronounce judgment as to the genuineness of the fossils, but i'll any case whether the specimens are in the meantime looked upon as fos- sils, stone carvings or peculiar water formations in the soft limestone, they will, I venture to predict, remain ob- jects of extraordinary interest and nothing short of the definite pro- nouncement of experts will convince the ordinary unskilled observer that they are anything else but fossils"

VILLAS SECRETS IN GOVERNMENT HANDS
Personal Diary Is Record of
 Slaughter and LOoting

El Paso, Tex, March 16.-Pancho Villas most cherished secrets, the se- crets that have made the outlaw chiefs career such a long one, are in the hands of the state department at Washington. In all bability they will be more important guides to the expedition that is ordered to wipe out the bandit leader.
 The secrets were revealed in a diary taken from the body of Pablo Lopez, Villas prime assassin, after he was killed in the massacre at Colunl- bus. The diary is a handbook If slaughter and loot, an astounding r, elation of the inside life and cam paign of the Villa forces. But it is not as a human document that the book is important to the state de- partment and the army.
 Mysteries Revealed.
 Jotted Spanish notes reveal the mysteries that have enabled Villa to defy law, order and humanity in tho northern hills. They disclose the hiG- den trails over which Villa led his men when pressed They show where his cannon were hidden and they dis close the names of the men who arc smuggling arms to him as we'll as those who are acting as his agents along the border.
 The dark pages of the book also tell of plotting that preceded the Santa Ysobel massacre when IS Americans were taken from d train and slaughtered. and the Columbus raid. For ten days the book indi- cates Villa planned the Santa Ysc- bel outrage.
 On the day chosen he and a de tachment of men were in the foot hills, another detachment was 15 miles away. The second detachment stopped the train bearing the Ameri- cans to see if there was an armed escort aboard. Then it wigwagged to Villa. Assured that the train had no defense, Villa unleashed his cut, threats.
 The contents of the diary were turned over to the government by tic men who found it on Lopez's body.

PROHIBITION GIVEN
 SING SING BOOST
Most Prisoners Know Effects of Intemperance, No. 11,@1 Says

Albany, N. Y, March 16-Petitions inmates of Sing Sing prisons were filed with legislative committees yes- terday by an ex-convict who appear ed at a hearing in support of the Wilson -Fullagar State Wide Prohibit ton bill.
 The former prisoner, whose name was not disclosed was introduced as Mum Der II ,221.'' He said that if the future of the bill lay with prison in mates it would be enacted into law in ten minutes.
 Most of these men have known Of the effects of intemperance,' the for mer prisoner declared. They know it was intemperance, largely, that put them where they are. If they had the say New York state would be added to the prohibition column i'm mediatly.
 Prisoners Want Law.
 q know this, for I've recently vis- ited the prisons and talked with my former companions behind the gray walls. AndG I know, too, that they are praying this afternoon for the success of my argument"
 Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, in op- posing the measure, said prohibition was not the cure for intemperance. and it's attendant evils.
 "Organized labor is working for temperance in all things" he said, but it denies the right of the state to attempt to make unlawful tho normal activities of the citizens"
 Theodore Sutro, of the German American Alliance, cited the recent performances of the German army. which he said, is the only one in which the dispensation of liquor has not been forbidden wholly or in part | as an illustration of "hoW the mod [ crate indulgence in beer and light 1 wines which arc a part of the ra- ! tions of the German soldier, contrib utes to efficiency"
