Say Soldiers Stole Shoes

Two soldiers managed to secure
some liquor last night and broke into
the Bargain Shoe store owned by
Joseph Slosberg. stealing our pairs
of shoes. They effected their entrance
by kicking in the glass in the front
window. Detective William It. Hart
mann was soon on the trail of the
two wouid-be burglars. and intercept
ed them at the cornc of Smith and
State streets, where he searched them
and found the shoes in their pockets.
The soldiers explained this morning
in court that they were so drunk that
they did not know what they were
doing and had no control over their
actions. However, such n story did
not go with Recorder Pickersgill and
they were both held in default of
$500 bonds for the grand jury.

Armenia's Homer.

Armenia, as we'll as Greece. had n
Homer. Like Homer. Moses OF
khorene. who wrote in the seventh
century, was held To be dealing alto
gether with tradition until archneolog-
icnl discoveries revealed the fact that
some of his personages were historic,
according to the Christian Science
Monitor. Semlramis, the queen who
huilt the city OF Van, much as Homer
describes Dido building the city of
Carthage, has been found in the rec
ords of the past; hut the civilization
of her day was overthrpwn by Cyrus
and his successors, and the land be-
came Armenia, and entered upon a
period of about thousand years
when general iliiteracy obtained
among the population. Concerning
this period practically no record sur
wives. Not until the fourth century
did the land. now Influenced by Chris
tianity, begin to find self expression :;
80 1t is hardly strange that what Moses
of khorene wrote was long held to be
wholly Of his imagination.

Some of these rocking stones are made

They are of harder material than the

So the harder remains after the soft
