MAY RECOVER WORKS OF ART
Possibility That Waters of the Rhone
Will Give Up Sarcophagi Long
in Their Keeping.

An ancient story of the greed of
kings has been resurrected by an
erudite member of the Institute de
France, Mr.. Adrien Blanchet. The
fact is there is some prospective work
on hand for the utilization of the
Rhone water power. Thus do ancient
history and modern enterprise come
to hObnob in the revue des etudes
anciennes. The story tells how the
king of France, Charles TX, coming
one day to Aries, saw the Roman sar-
cophagi and wished them his. He did
not covet long, for the next act in this
kingly episode was the shipping of
the most perfect of Rome's monuments
en- route for the capital city. This may
have furnished a later king of France,
namely, Louis XIV, with the precedent
for the removal of the statue Of Mes
salina from Bordeaux; not that that
monarch ever needed either precedent
or encouragement for his actions. The
sarcophagi started on their journey. 1t
was In the year 1865. They had unfor-
tunately not gone beyond the famous
Pont-Saint-Esprit, before the boats
sank beneath so unusual and weighty
a load. Now, the congress for the de-
velopment of water power, which sat
in February this year, discussed among
other schemes the transformation of
the ont-Saint-Esprit. The question is
and it will be admitted to be an alb
sorbing one-during the excavations IN
the bed of the Rhone will those sarco-
phagi, lost nearly four centuies ago, be
recovered?

MORE THAN WILLING TO GO
Senator's Suggestion, Meant as Sar-
casm, Probably Was Wish Closest
to Adventures Heart.

Maj. Cushman A. Rice of Mime

dropped in to see Senator Knute Mel
son the other day, on his way back
rro.a war. This last war made about
he fortieth Rice has been in, so the
veteran Minnesota senator thought
Rice had had enough.
"Cushman," the senator said "why
don't you quit roaming around, go
home and run for office? Your male
relatives have been governors, soma
tors, etc, and there is no reason why
you should not serve your state"
Rice did not seem greatly impressed,
so Nelson became somewhat warmer
in his remarks.
IF you're bound to fight, why not
get over into Russia, among the reds,
and get some real action" Nelson
said, sarcastically.
Whereupon Rice leaped into the air.
"Say, senator" he shouted, "if you'll
fix it up 50 | can get over there, there
isn't anything l wouldn't do for you"

GREEKS HAD FORM OF TENNIS
That the Game Is an Old One Is Sure,
but Its Origin Is Hard
to Trace.

Discussion of possible changes in
the Technology of tennis naturally in
cludeS the name itself; and here there
are many possible origins. The game,
In one form or another, Is very old.
The Greeks Knocked q ball back and
forth and called the exercise "phen-
mis-" for which the Roman name was
"teniludium." "Phennis" and "teni-
ludium' were ancestors probably of
the similar French sport In the middle
ages, and modern tennis may, for that
matter, have been named from the
province of TennOis, where this game
was exceedingly popular. Possibly,
but improbably, the name Is derived
from the French "tenez," in the sense
OF get ready" deuce" is generally
accepted as another form of the
French "deux," but "raCquets" has
several possible sources, the most
likely perhaps being the old medic
val word ''rachette," meaning the palm
of the hand, when the game was
played like modern handball. Chaucer
and Shakespeare both knew the game
in England, and, whether or not they
played it, had doubtless looked on
with satisfaction, as did Queen Eliza

GREAT EXPONENT OF LIBERTY
Simon dc Montfort, Earl of Leicester,
Known as IF father Of Eng.i.h
Ecu5e of CommCaS"

The first great democIat in England
was Simon de Monyfort earl Of LeiceS-
ter, who was slain IN battle GJ4 years
ago as the leader of tie rehpllOuS
barons. Simon de N0n,rnrt was also
the spokesman for the great masses
of the people, and he held that it
was the duty of The not les to stand
between the people and the monarch
as guardians of their liberties, to
watch over the exercise of the royal
power and prevent its abuse. In the
great battle of Lewes in 1864 the bar
onS under the command of de Mont
fort. completely defeated the king and
the royaIist party. In the battle of
Evesham on August of the following
year the tables were turned and the
democratic earl was killed and the
haronS sustained a runOus defeat.
During the brief period of Simon's as
tendency, however, he had laid the
foundation for the house of commons
and had inspired in the breasts of the
people devotion to liberty and dem
ocracy never to be stamped out by
royal oppression. Every king is ruled
by the laws" declared Simon de Mont
fort, and he held that the generality"
should have hand in the making Of
the laws by which they, as well as
the monarch, were to be governed.
Simon de Montfort's immortal place
i'll history is indicated by the rever-
ent title historians have given him
the Father Of the English House of
Commons"
