1t was a bad night, at best.
"Tve had many a long, hard night

son thought.
There's many a bad night In the
history of the pioneers, its shadows
falling on lonely, Unmarked roads,

work he would not have undertaken

that Of friendship.
He reached Chicago at noon, having
had nothing to eat that day. There
was no such eager, noisy crowd In the
streets as he had seen before. The
fever of speculation had passed. But
there were many people on the main
thoroughfares, among whom were
Europeans who had arrived the
autumn before. They were changing
but the marks of the yoke were still
upon them. In Chicago were the
vitals of the West and they were Iery
much alive in spite of the panic.
Samson bought some new clothes
and had bath and good dinner at
the City hotel. Then he went to the
office of Mr.. Lionel Davis. There to
his surprise he met his old acQuaint-

him with great warmth and told Of
having settled in Chicago.
A well-dressed young man came out

I'm ready to deliver it."

Schlieman in 1876 buried with their
treasures in the famous shaft graves
of Mycenae.
Below this again are the tombs
of still earlier periods, going back to
about 1000 B. c.
In addition, the British archeolo-
gists found several new chamber
tombs in the Mycenae cemeteries.
The two largest tombs just discover
ed have not yet been cleared. In the
entrance to one were found paintd
vases, gold and amethyst beads and
five splendid intaglio seal stones. On
two of these are standing lions and
the figure Of the great mother god
dess dressed in the elaboratly flounc-
ed and gathered gown worn by N.Y.
cenean women.
One of these big tombs has an en-
trance passage nearly 100 feet long
and six feet wide. The tomb chamber
is twnty-one feet square and lies
thirty feet below the level of the
ground. 1t is believed they contain
articles of great historic value.

FIND BATH IN WHICH
KING SLAIN, BELIEF
Tank I'm Which Spouse Killed King
Who Led Greeks Against Troy
In Mycena Ruins.

Athens, Oct. 1S.-Some very in
teresting discoveries have been made
by the British School OF Archaeology
in this SEASONS work at Myccnae, the
ancient Greek city which already has
yielded some OF the most remarkable
finds bearing On the epic peri1d
w.i;ii preceded the dawn of anthem
tic history.
One of these discoveries is of
tank bath in the palace of the Aero
polls at Mycenae which suggests the
possibility that it may have been the
legendary bath of Agamemnon in
which he is reputed to have been
murdered by his wife Clytemnstra.
At al events, if Agamemnon we're
an historic person, he should have
lived in this palace for it was built
about / ,400 years before Christ and
was destroyed before the end of the
Twelfth Century b. c.
Mycenae was one of the most I'M
portant cities of ancient Greeks and
was the tabled seat of Agamempon,
son of the king of that city and most
powerful ruler in Greece. 1t was
Agamemnon whom the Greek histo-
rians credit with having led the
Greek expedition against Troy. On
his return from that expedition, he
was slain. In the tragedy OF Aeschy-
lus, the sceae of the murder is laid
in the. palace of Agamemnon at Ar
gos. some miles distant from My
cenae.
The bath uncovered by British in
vestigators is lined with red. stucco
and its sides are composed of steps.
The palace which was discovered in
1856 has now been completely clear
ed as the result of this seasons eff
forts. One of the most interesting
parts of IL is the great hail, or Mega
ron, in which is raised ceremonial
circular hearth made of painted sunc-
co and having floors OF the same ma
terial edged with slabs of gypsum.
The walls of the hall were covered
with painted fresco which suffered
much in the fire which destroyed the
palace. Some fragments of thes4
decorations were found. They repre-
sent deliberately drssd womn with
auburn hair.
The domestic quarters OF the palace
were much destroyed, but In them
were found row of jars and a shrine
with the remains Of painted stucco
affairs.
Under the floors of the palace have
been found scanty remains OF yet
earlier edifice. dating probably from
1900 TO 1900 b. C. There probably
lived the kings who were found by

TAX COMMISSION
is SUED BY BANK
Question Right To Check Intangi-
bles For Assessment.

- Frankfort, n.y.. Eov. e. rn, right
of the State Tax Commission to go
into banks and check up intangibles
held by the institutions as collateral
is involved in salt filed today in the
Franklin Circuit Court by the Capital
Trust Company Of this city against
the tax commission. The suit was
brought by the local bank on behalf
of all the banks of the state and seeks
TO enjoin the commission from check
ing up the intangibles held as col
lateral. The banks are represented
by T. Kennedy Helm, attorney. of
Louisville.
Circuit Judge r. L. Stout took the
case under advisement. He also has
under consideration the case of Pilos
Combs for a writ of mandamus to
compel II. V. Basin, superintendent
of the refromatory, to release him
from the institution. Combs, pris-
oner sent up from Letcher County
contends that if he had been given
proper allowance for good behavior
he would be eligible for release from
the institution. The case probably
will go TO the Court of Appeals for
construction of the law allowing
prisoners time for good behavior.
Judge Stout previously has held I'M
der habeas corpus proceedings that
the State Board of Charities and Cor
rections is without authority to grad
uate the time allowed prisoners for
good behavior and that they must
be Above dthe maximum of ten days
"a month. The board allows them
