WERE FOR A SHORT TIME
TEN GERMANS KILLED.

Paris, April 8.-Ten Germans were
killed and thirty wounded in clashes
between the French occupationary
forces and citizens in Frankfort on
Wednesday, dispatch today said.
Great crowds gathered in the streets
OF Frankfort, after a rumor had been
circulated that the United States and
Great Britain had demanded that
France evacuate Frankfort by six
o'clock.
One of the incidents contributing
to the fatal clashes was an alleged at
tack upon German reserve officer
by French officers. Citizens taunted
French colonials and disarmed one
patrol. Other French troops charged
and for few minutes severe fighting
ensued. The number of killed and
wounded could not be definitely
established. Tanks armed with ma
chine guns finally cleared the streets
and restored order.
Berlin, April 8-An American
member of the High Rhineland COM
mission has informed the German
government that the United States
does not share the French viewpoint

Beautiful Sea-GardenS

Along the rocky coast of Nahant,
Mass, the tide rising and falling
through a distance of nine feet, leaves
as it recedes, quiet pools in the holes
and crevices at the base of the cliffs,
where flourish little worlds of marine
plants and animals. Of these tide
pools of Nahant, the "Agassiz cave"
contains one of the most beautiful of
the sea-gardens of the northern shore.
Completely covered at high tide, at
low water the mysteries of its recesses
are revealedt to wondering human eyes.
Many-colored star-fshes and sea
anemones, gorgeous sea weeds, fra
gile, pink-hearted hydoids clustered in
Acwered-like masses, delicate pink
fronds of coralline, iridescent, violet
tipped Irish moss cleaning like jewels
in the sunlight, and velvety green
clusters of sea-lettuce-these are some
of the beauties of the tide-pool that
form mass of wondrous colors.-Ex.

The White Chapel is what the name
implies. AT each corner the walls are
butressed like the old California mis-
sion. 1t resembles in general form
some of Mexico's ancient churches.
Unlike them, however, it is dainty
chased and decorated, with many
inches containing appropriate statuet-
ties.

iod, when the canyon evidently was
swamp teeming with fauna. To-
day it is fossil field virtually unex-

Cursory search has disclosed remains
of camels, horses, elephants, masto-

the Los Angeles aqueduct, recently
picked up the petrified heel-bone of
the largest sabre-toothed tiger ever
found. Caves abound, and in one of
these was discovered a collection OF,
Indian pottery worth thousands of
dollars. 1t consisted of Al pieces,
placed in orderly fashion against the
walls, and covered inches deep with
dust. Some of the pieces were re-
markably thin and almost glazed, pig
ments having been applied before
burning. The Shoshones and Piutes
were the Indian tribes that formerly
ranged here, but this pottery now dis
covered is far superior to any of their
known work.-Selected.

pie find it difficult to believe that it
is not human handiwork. Near by,
dominating the mystic region, rises
the massive Sentinel Tower, impos-
ing rather than beautiful. 1t is ap-
parently harder and more substan-
tial than its neighbor. Biologists say
it has held its commanding bulk aloft
for thousands of centuries. The walls
are pinkish gray, and the ponderous
finty capstones a brilliant red. A
mile diagonally opposite is the colos-
sal pile known as the Acropolis. This
is, perhaps, the crowning feature.
More than $50 feet high and 1000
feet long and solemnly aloof, it has
been likened to the Athenian Acropo-
lis because of a marked resemblance
and as we'll to the mammoth temple
ruins of Baalbec in northern Syria.
Seen from any angle it is mysterious,
awe-compelling, certain to leave a
lasting imprint on the mind of all OBJ

RED ROCK CANYON

IN THESE days of advanced travel
1t seems strange to record the dis
covery of gorge crowded with
natural wonders within a few hours
motor ride of busy city, says Lon
don Graphic. Yet such is the story
of Red Rock canyon, in southern
California, an enchanted spot, so rich
in its unique beauty, and of such scien-
tific import that the president of the
United States is asked by some of the
leading men and organizations of the
Pacific coast to set it apart as a ma
tional monument. This romantic,
rainbow-hued gorge contains wealth
of amazing structures rearded and
carved and even painted by the ele-
ments, and yet comparable only to the
classics of ancient and modern archi-
lecture. Its fossil beds, practically
untouched, give promise of paleontol-
ogical treasure, and recent finds in
its caves interest ethnologists.
The canyon is cash in the south
ern end of the Sierra Nevada noun
tains. Its mouth opens upon the
northwestern edge of the Mojave
desert. 1t is 126 miles from Los
Angeles. For nearly a century the
prosaic pioneers who passed that re-
mote way paid no heed to its vivid
charm. 1t was the decision to extend
the state highway from Los Angeles
to Bishop that led to the discovery of
the beauties of this gorge. Until the
surveyors returned and reported the
existence of strange and wonderful
rock formations no one knew of their
presence. This is all the more re-
markable when we remember the
Americans love of travel, and that
these are the days of railways and
motorcars. Shortly now the canyon
with its many wonders will be on the
main trail of civilization, and tens of
thousands of tourists and others will
soon admire it with rapture and as
tonishment. The new roadway ap-
proaches to within SO feet of the
scenic marvels which the governement
is petitioned to protect and preserve.
That section of the canyon which
contains the inspiring works embraces
a little more than four square miles,
is several miles removed from the
desert, and lies at an altitude of
5000 feet. On approach from either
direction a turn brings the walled-in
miracles of form and color suddenly
into view-an entrancing picture;
pillars and columns, plain and Auted
and chased; pilasters and colonnades,
tiny and titanic, tier upon tier, mile
after mile, far skyward; arcades, bal
ustrades, corridors; temples, castles,
cathedrals, towers, domes, spires,
sphinxes, gargoyles - all perfectly
nodded and exquisitely adorned by
the lord of creation.
Moreover, they are untouched and
unmarried as yet by the bludering van
dal hand of man; a buried city, an
acropolis, and scores of other fancies
become realities. On an eminence at
the canyons head stands the Temple
of the Sun, an impressive gray pile,
125 feet high, approached through
series of terraced entraceways, with
partially crumbled walls forming an
elliptical inclosure approximately $50

THE NEW EUROPE
THE Republic of Hungary is part
of what was formerly the King

THE Republic of Hungary is part
of what was formerly the King
dom of Hungary which was for
many years part of the Austro- Hun
garian Monarchy. This large section
of the map of Europe is familaiar to
all tsudents of geography and it was
of no small Importance, politically,
historically and commercially. The
Hungary of today does not include
the territory inhabited by the Slovaks
(Czheco-Slovakia) on the north; nor
the land of the Croats and the Slo-
venes (Jugo-Slavia) south of the river
Drave; nor Transylvania on the
southeast, the population of which
was Rumanian, and since the Great
War has become Rumanian by ma
tional government and name. Only
Magyar" Hungary is included with
in the boundaries of the new Hun
garia. Austria is on the west and
Ukrainia on the northeast boundary.
Hungary's most serious loss is that
of her former coast line on the Adria-
tic through the establishment of Jugo-
Slavia as an independent republic.
Hungary is now an inland state, quite
on "a par with Switzerland. The
Danube for a considerable distance
provides an international waterway
for Hungary and Jugo-Slavia, but
themouth of the river is in the control
of other nations upon whose favor
Hungary is entirely dependent for.
traffic privileges. The present area
of the republic is about 10000 square
miles and population (1919) esti-
mated at 100000.
Hungary was declared a republic
on Nov. II, 1918. Count Karolyi
assumed office as provisional presi-
dent. On March p, 1919, he re-
signed and the administration was
taken over by a Bolshevik or "Soviet"
Government, with Bella Kun (Co-
hen) at its head. This administration
was swept away by Rumanian mill
tary forces and after several rapid
changes the Government was vested
in the National Assembly, a single
chamber elected by universal suffrage.
Buda Pest, on the Danube, popula-
ton 100000, is the capital of the
country. Just above Buda Pest the
Danube passes between Bakony For
est and the Ore Mountains and
through the Hungarian gate into the
great Hungarian plain. Here the
river passes through low, fiat country,
often dividing into many channels
and forming what is known as "the
braided river" In Hungary the
Danube is joined by the River Drave,
coming from the glaciers and snow
fields of the Tyrolean and Syrian
Alps and the Thesis or Tisza, from
the Carpathians. A large lake, called
Balaton See lies close to the Bakony
Forest and is linked to the Danube
by canal. This region is subject
to severe floods in the springs and
sand storms in the summers which
are very hot. The winters are ex-
tremely cold.
The fertile soil has made the coun-
try rich in agricultural production.

RATE INCREASES
FOR RAILROADS
IN STATE DENIED

The railroad commission, in a deci-
noon, refused the petition Of the
railroads of Georgia for a rs per cent
increase in the intrastate rates on
cotton, cotton linters and brick.
Several weeks ago the railroads
asked the commission to give them
the same increase in rates within
the state which the interstate com
n.erce commits sion mad given them on
interstate traffic. That is to say, rs
per cent.
Their petition was granted with
the exception of rates on cotton, cot
ton linters and brick, because of the
fact that a fat increase in these
rates, applicable without regard to
distance, had been put into effect
by the railroad administration dur
ing the period of federal control, and
the railroad commission felt that an
additional increase, figured by per-
centage, was not justified.
The railroads then returned with a
petition for the commission to amend
it's order by striking these excep-
tons and allowing a percentage in
crease on cotton, cotton linters and
brick.
The Interstate commerce commits
sion has power, under the transpor-
tatlon act, to remove determinations
between interstate rates and inter-
state rates. 1t is believed likely
that the railroads of Georgia will

Mine Workers the normal weekly hg.
ures were from 100000 to 3l5,Ooo
Blocton and Pratt field mines of
the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Rail
road company are down, according, to
the report. The production for this
company during the week OF Septencc
Der 10 was 40,952 tons, drop OF
about $4,000. Sloss-Sheftield Steel
and Iron company mines produced
1921 tons, the normal output being
about 10000. Figures for the Re-
public Iron and Steel company. were
2,S49 tons, a loss of about $500 tons
for the week.
The effect of the strike has been
felt by practically every mine in the
district except two, the Alabama COM
pany and the Woodward Iron com
pany The former is operating under
union contract The Woodward COM
pany, however, which has not been
unionized, showed an output of over
$4,000 tons, which is about normal.
Large individual plants in the Biz
mingha n district have apparently
not been affected by the strike.
