the lake in a long irregular line.
There was also peculiar disturb
ance of the water. An American tray
eler had reported that on three sue
cessive nights, when no wind was stir
ring, a heavy breaker came pounding
upon the beach, followed by a success

Doctor Masterman reported a similar
experience. and attributed the wave
disturbance to the rapid change of
temperature which sets in shortly after
sunset.
Ancient writer's established a myth
that the Dead Sea was an abode or
death, that its shores were sterile. and
that even birds flying over its waters
were liable to fall dead. All these
ideas are now known TO be the re-
verse of the truth. 1t was true that
the waters were so permeated with
salt that no animal or vegetable life
could flourish in the bulk of its vol
ume, but near the shores. where
streams of braclIish water found their
way into the sea, small fish, crabs, and
mosquito larvae were found, and he
had seen fish in the sea. A bottle of
water from the same spot immediately
afterwards was proved to contain no
less than 1888 per cent of solids. In
one of the Jericho hotels, before the
war, there was declaration Jointly
signed the same year by over a dozen
tourists that they saw fish actively
swimming at the same spot. At many
spots along the shore there are cases IN
which acres of reeds and many trees
flourished, and at such spots ANNA,
life and bird life was abundant.

RUINS OF SELINUS
COVER LARGE AREA
(Kansas CITY Starr

The crumbling ruins of Selinus lie
scattered over a hill of western Sicily
where once they lowered in titanic
glory. The Greek colonies of the fifth
century B. c. all had their artists and
sculptors, and Selinus boasted seven
masterpieces of Greek art erected to
the honor of its favorite divinities
The broken columns and walls of the
most ma iestic temples of Sicily lie half
buried in the dust of their crushed
stones and ground into the earth as if
hurled down by nightly force. Her
cules, to whom one of the temples was
built, might have torn them down in
anger and flung the columns about
and crushed the massive stone to pow
der with q blow of his fist. Looking
out upon the chaotic ruin from the
brow of the hill. one can imagine the
shattered columns shaking off the dust
and gathering themselves together to
stand erect again above the broad
stars The walls seemed to grow firm
and square and graceful figutes adorn
the entrances. The picture fades
quickly and the fallen stones seem
more desolate in contrast.
The buildings were not yet finished
when Hannibal marched upon the
proud city Of Selinus and laid siege to
it's stronghold. Nine days the Greek
colony held out, then Hannibal entered
in triumph and massacre and destruc-
ton followed. The temples survived,
only to fall later in more complete ruin
than the Carthaginian army could have
accomplished. An earthquake was the
cause of the overthrow The temples
were then old battered perhaps, but
the first trembling of the earth shook

POLES DEMAND PROOF
Of PROGRAM ORDERS
Republican A. p. Leased Wire]

NEW YORK, Nov. 2S.-To determine
the truth or falsity of stories of Jewish
pogroms in Poland, the Polish nation
al department and the Polish national
defense committee united today in a
formal demand on the American and
allied governments to dispatch to Po-
land a special commission.
Because of their belief that reports or
anti-Semitic outbreaks are certain to
react against the cause of the new in
dependent and united Polish state at
the peace table, the proposition IS az
vanced for an investigation by an i'm
partial inter-allied and American COM
mission. The Poles assert that repre-
sentatives of the Jewish organizations
in the United States already have petit
toned the allied governments that Po-
land be virtually denied a seat at the
peace table, or an opportunity to state
it's case before that tribunal and that
the situation is critical.
The call for the appointment of a
commission was signed here today by
John, L. Smulski, DR.. X. Zurawski, DR..
Adam Swajkart, X. Zychlinski, Alex
ander Debski and DR.. 3. Kolakowski.
John F. Smulski and DR.. B. Kolakow-
ski, representing the two Polish organ
izations, explained that they had asked
for the commission with every conf
dence that it would brand as false the
stories circulated.

a steadily increasing rainfall.
Travellers had reported a curious

running north and south down the CEN

we're made as to its cause, one divinity
professor even suggesting that it might
represent some existing rift in the bot
