Modern Hair-dress Was Style Which
 Held in Long Ago

Madison, Wis.,, Nov. 17.-The mod ern ideas of styles, facial and hair makeups were prevalent 4OO0 years ago, according to Prof. w. L. Wes- termann of the Wisconsin University history department, who returned from an advisory position at the peace conference recently.
 "From excavations on the Island of Crete we learn that young women painted their lips, tinted their cheeks and spent hours putting their hair into artistic shapes" Prof. Wester- mann told class in ancient his tory.
 The styles of that time, which can be seen in the art and statuary found in the excavations, were also very at- tractive, and creations closely re- sembling the modern tight skirt have been discovered"
 The Cretan city was the Paris of that time, according to Prof. West ermann, and from this city came the prevailing influences over styles, cus- toms, art and trade.
 "The civilization of the early Gre. tans was of very high type and was the forerunner of the Cretar civilization that followed some cen. turies later, and which has contrib uted greatly to modern civilization
 "The use of rouge has always beer found prevalent where high type of civilization exists"

Bonded Whiskey
 Sent Everywhere

Cincinnati, O., Nov. 17.-Bonded whiskey in warehouses in this adja- cent districts is gradually being withdrawn and sent to other parts of the country in preparation for the repeal of wartime prohibition, it has been learned here. Chief Depu- ty U. s. Internal Revenue Collector Stephen w. McGrath has disclosed that owners of the whiskey in the Cincinnati district have made ire quent visits to his office to secure permission for the transfer of the liquor. Thousands of gallons have been moved out, and most of it sent to the big warehouses in the neigh borhood of the big centers in the east.
 What transpired in the Ohio ware houses has been repeated in Ken lucky, it is said. Distillers look for ward to the lifting of the ban be- tween November 15 and December 1, it is said.

SENDING HOME THE REDS.

The Russian soviet ambassador" says dispatches, has made overturea to the United States government, asking that he be allowed to safe guard the Bolsheviks on their trip back to Russia. They are ready and willing to go, he declares, and he offers them free ticket home.
 The Reds must go but they cant be sent back the way he suggests. Criminals, they must be treated as such. They will be given no first class tickets, and they won't sail back with honors. They will be loaded in a boat, (one of the transports the American troops had to ride will suf fice,) and carried back as they de- serve to be carried back. The Unit ed States government will pay the expenses. The soviet ambassador should be very careful what he says and does or he may be loaded in with the rest.

Skeleton of Priest Slain by
 Indians in 1882

Hawikuh, N. M., Nov. 17.-While making explorations here for the American Archaeological society, the Iexpedition of which Jess Nusbaum is at the head uncovered the skeleton remains of Father Francisco de Let rato, who was killed by Indians in 1882. This discovery. which was made few days ago, solves the mys- tery that has existed for nearly three centuries as to what became of Fa- ther de Letrato's body.
 The martyr priest was on his way to the ancient mission of the Fran |ciscans at Hawikuh when he was at- tackled and killed by Indians. From Zuni searching party went out iD the hope of finding the body of De Letrato, according to an inscription that still appears upon rock near Zuni, setting forth the time the ex- petition departed and it's purpose. Nothing was ever heard of the expe- Idition, but the fact that the remains of the long-missing priest were found buried beneath the altar of the ancient mission church here leads to the belief that it was recovered by the faithful followers of the religious pioneer and given what was to them a sacred resting place. The identity of the remains was fully established by Nusbaum by means of ornaments and church habiliments that were buried with the body.
 At a still greater depth beneath the ancient church this archaeological expedition uncovered the runis of |. building that is believed to have been part of an ancient Indian village that must have existed many centur- ies ago.

THE JENKINS CASE.

Some Mexican authorities seem to be determined to make the Jenkins case an issue between the United States government and Mexico. They have had Jenkins arrested and have alleged that he connived his own kid naping.
 If Jenkins was lin" on his own Kidnapping, he certainly deserves pun ishment. But, the United States and not Mexico, will be the nation who will determine whether he is guilty And while his guilt is still matter as yet not established, the United States government should see that Jenkins is treated with proper re. spect by the Mexican government. Mexico has no right to cause his ar- rest, guilty or not guilty, and should be made to understand that she must first get permission of the United States before causing him any inconvenience

American Movies
 Popular in Brazil

Rio Grande Do Sul, Brazil, Nov. 17.-(By the Associated Press.)-An American visiting small towns ia Brazil can easily gratify his desire for home scenery. Whatever the place, large or small, he is sure t& find on the main street at least one moving picture theatre and never fails to see there an American pro- duction, in fact seldom anything else.
 The Associated Press correspon- dent has occasion to make trip on a Brazilian coastwise steamer which made stops at the ports of Paran- qua, San Francisco do Sul, Florian- opolis and Rio Grande, the latter be- ing the largest, with about 14,O00 in- habitants. In these typical towns, as in the smaller communities of the United States, the moving picture seems to be the chief source of eve- ming entertainment.
 Adorning the foyers of the thea tres are always to be seen posters and photographs of well-known Ann erican moving picture stars, sent from the United States with the film and with the captians still in Eng fish. There are usually supplement- ed, however, by brilliant poster done in hand by a local artist, with Portuguese text, emphasizing the thrilling features of the production.
 The North American visitor may discover that he has seen the film at home two or three years ago, but even so, he will find something new in the manner in which film is pre- sented in Brazilt Here, instead Of

a continuous picture, the film is cut at critical junctures of the plot and there follows a flash on the screen "dos minutes de intervallo." The lights go up and thus for an interval of two minutes the audience is held in suspense wondering what will hap pen next.
 Always the theatres are filled to capacity and the Brazilians discuss the merits of American actors and actresses of the screen and familiar ly as any moving picture enthusiast in the United States. The comedians are intensely popular and there is one, distinguished for being extraor- dinarilys fat, ,to, whom the Brazilians have given the name of '"Chico -Boia," meaning "Little Bull"
 The advent of a film showing "Chi- co-Boia" combined with that of a Spanish ventriloquist was made the occasion of gala night at the mov- ing picture theatre in the little town of Parangua.

VALUE VERSUS PRIVILEGE

Financial veterans who can talk easily of the fifties when member ships of the New York stock ex- change sold for approximately $500 apiece snort when discussing the present record prices seats have at- tained.
 As one put it: "The few men who made up the stock exchange 50 to 50 years ago obtained more privileges for their fees of $500 than the mem- Der of today who has to pay $100,000 or more. In the first place imagine the invaluable trading chances given the few gentlemen attending the calls with nothing better than few clerks circulating around the street with sales on which quotations were writ ten for the benefit of waiting clients. I have known men to give $200 for the privilege of listening at the key hole of the board room during the calls on day of stress"
 It was during these days that some of the biggest "corneis" were exc cuted and undoubtedly lack of ma chinery for acquainting the world Of happenings on the board gave men like Jacob Little, Jay Gould and Con- modore Vanderbilt many of their op- portunities.-Wall Street Journal.

TOLEDO'S TRACTION
 FIGHT DATES BACK
 FOR SEVERAL YEARS
First Agitation for New Fran chise and Cheaper Fare
 Begun in 1904.

Toledo, O., Nov. 17.-Toledo citi- zens are not taking the traction sys- tenn tie-up very seriously. In fact they are quite accustomed to going without street cars.
 When Henry L. Dogherty, of New York, abducted his street cars and spirited them over the boundary line into Michigan after midnight on Mo- vember 8, it was the third time in less than four years that MT. Dog!l- erty had taken his cars away
 Early in April of 1916, the New York traction magnate, without warning to city officials or public, sent the cars into the barns when the car men who had organized un- ion appeared wearing the union but ton. Toledo that time went thirteen days without street cars.
 On the night of June 29, last, the car men after receiving word of the award made by the war labor board which gave them the right to wear ed with the emblem of the union.
 Again without warning MT. Doher- ty ordered the cars into the barns. They were off five hours that time, the company in the meantime being advised that the war labor boards word was law.
 And this time there is no indica- tion when they will return. They were withdrawn when the Toledo Railway & Light Co.,, received off cial notification that the people had approved an custer ordinance at the election on November 4. The com- pany and city are deadlocked over settlement and the city is getting along with an improvised motor car system with fares ranging from ten to twenty cents.
 The traction fight here dates back over many years. Briefly the his tory is:
 1904-Agitation for new franchise and cheaper fares begun.
 1911-Frank R. Coates becomes manager; revival of franchise dis cussion.
 January, 1s14-Last of franchises expired.
 March, 1914-schreiber three cent fare ordinance becomes effective.
 August, 1914-Voters approve mu- nicipal ownership.

JAY WOMEN's IDEAL MAN.

Tokio.-The magazine Choukouvo Gohano (virtuous woman) invited its Japanese women readers to send in their opinions on what constitutes an ideal husband. Here are the l3 vlr- tues they demanded of Jap hubby: He should not be greedy.
 He should not spend too much time "primping."
 He should have a manly appear ance.
 He should not be too familiar with other women.
 He should express himself clearly. He should make prompt decisions. He should have high ideals.
 He should never show himself in the kitchen.
 He should never criticize the coif- lure or the gowns of his wife or any other women.
 He should not bore his wife by tell ing her all his pet tastes.
 He should not drink too much.
 He should not be a dude.
 He should not be too jealous. The symposium aroused the humor of the Japanese. males, who sent in some suggestions of what constitutes an ideal wife. They paraphrased the last of the thirteen points and all agreed that "she should not be too jealous" ."-Cleveland Plain Dealer.

BIRTH RATE TOO LOW.

Leicester, Eng, Nov. 17.-The de- clining birth rate in England is at- tracting attention of many thought full men.

GOLD FOUND IN SOAP.

Berlin, Nov. 17.-Eight 20-mark gold pieces were found in as many bars of English soap by two women who bought the soap from a peddler in Berlin.

Sanders to the Rescue

/ O0lROC. W tlkN kA(S%u(
We referred last week to The
d esperate efforts which tie Parker
people were making to avert the
disaster which is in store for them.
Since that time former Cover.
nor j. Y. Sanders has come ali
the way from Washington aud is
on a tour OF the state speaking for
Mr.. Parker.
We have good reason to. believe
thai at the beginning cf the cam
paiyn Mr.. Parker did not intend
to avail himself of Mr.. Sanders
support; that in fact he intended
to openly decline it, and the fact
that he has now consented to do
SO shows now serious the condi-
lions are from the standpoint of
his friends.
In 1903, Mir. Sanders was electe j
governor Of this state and went
into Office with the strongest per
sonal and political following of
any man who had eyer held that
Office in Louisiana.
He quickly developed into the
most expert machine builder and
machine manipulater in the United
States.
AS his power grew his audaci-
ty in the use of it increased until
the usual DISCUSSES, under which
machine politicians hide, were
boldly thrown aside, and the fam
Gus steam roller on which he and
his friends paraded the streets of
Baton Rouge in the campaign of
1912 was proclaimed as the type

events in the history of the state.
Ii shattered his machine and his
own political fortunes as we'll.
And now, the spectacle of j. 7.
Sanders fighting the New Orleans
organization, which he did SO
much to build up; and which was
80 much more dangerous under
his management than it is now, or
can ever be in the future, is an
Of that grim huIlor
which has been so often manifest
I'd in this campaign.
But aside from this, his adyo-
cacy Of Mr.. Parker is still more
remarkable. 1t will be recalled
that four years ago when Mr..
Parker was the candidate of the
Progressive Republican party FOR
Governor, Mr.. Sanders, some
what tardiIy, entered the contest
in behalf OF Mr.. Picasa..t. Mr..
Parker then declared that in Ju, e
