DOG MISSED FROM AUTO PARTY
AND SEARCH FOR animal SHOWS
ROSWELL attorney MISSING TOO


for the dog the two made the
discovery that Charlie was
missing. A long look back
down the road as far as the
eye could reach-even in the
high, clear atmosphere of New
MeXico--revealed nothing, not
even the dog.
There was nothing to do but
for the two to retrace their
steps in search Of their fellow
barrister, and the dog, of
course. Miles and miles be-
hind, they found the dog, and
even further toward the east
they found Charlie, like the
hero of Gray's Elegy, Home
ward plodding his weary way
1t was all simple when the
story was told. There was just
a little bump in the road and
there was no top on the car
to receive the impact of Char
lies body as it rose high in the
air.
The trip home, at least the
remainder of it, was quite
successfully made and neither
Charlie or the dog are feeling
any bad effects of their ex-
perience.

We hear from time to time some

on June 8. 1873:

Seal of Confederacy Lost.

The whereabouts of the official
seal of the Confederacy, an un-
solved. mystery for more than
half century, probably will ever
remain unknown. James Jones,
aged negro employe in the sen
ate office building, Washington.
who is reputed to be the only per-
son with a knowledge of the
place where the seal was buried,
died in Washington Friday with
out disclosing his secret.
Jones was serving as a servant
OF President Jefferson Davis when
the Confederate leader was taken
by Union forces. AS the story
goes, Jones buried the seal before
the Union authorities could OBJ
tain possession of Mr.. Davis eff
fects and to his death revealed
the spot to no one.

MANY BIG PROBLEMS
NOW FACING CONGRESS
Domestic Questions Said to Be
First on Program Of Session
That Convened Monday.


The attention of the American
people is centered On Washing
ton, where the new Republican
Congress met in extraordinary
session Monday, with many big
problems, both domestic and in
ternational, to be solved.
Questions which pressed heav-
lily for solution in the last term
of the Goth Congress, but were
not acted upon by the senate and
house during the final days of
President Wilson's administra-
ton, are more acqute now, with
the business depression continu-
ing throughout the country and
chaotic conditions in Europe hold
ing back return to stability.
Into this situation the. Republi-
can party enters the first session
of Congress under a Republican
president, after eight years of
Democratic administration.
In few days Congress will be
considering the vast domestic pol
icies of industrial readjustment,
reduction of wage scales and
freight rates to bring conditions
down to an er-the-war level.
and the revision of the taxation
and tariff laws. On the interna-
tional side the important ques-
tons concern the formation Of Il
policy looking to Il substitute for
the League of Nations and dec
laration of peace with Germany.
1t has been made clear. however,
that the administration seeks TO
have domestic problems solved
first.
There seems to be no definite
policy agreed Upon by the Re
publlcanS as to the tariff and
taxation program, although there
have been many conferences be-
tween the house and senate lead
ers and between them and Prcsi-
dent Harding. The house plan
appears to be the reenactment of
the farmers emergency tariff
bill, vetoed by President Wilson.
TO be followed Immediately by an
amendment to the Underwood
tariff law, placing all American
valuation upon imports.
President Harding and the state
department have had ample OPP
portunity, reinforced by the visit
OF Nj. Viviani, former premier Of
France, to learn the peace views
OF Europe and the treatment the
allies expect of the United States
toward Germany and thet repair
ationS question.
