1t is a perfectly natural and quite
usual thing for a bank absconder or a
less complex burglar to swerve from
the truth to the extent of denying Of
its happening at the time it was pulled
off. But here's a new type. One Will
liam Murphy came to town the other
day and attracted the attention Of the
police by throwing quarters and half
dollars around at a Harlem cabaret.
This seems too much like year or so
ago to pass unchallenged these days,
so the police took him in charge. He
explained frankly that he had been
lured by girls follow me" eyes
into robbing bank, for which he
worked at Waseca, Mimi, and that he
had concealed some $1,000 in Chi
cago. Along somes Waseca and says

Williams news., 1921-03-11

Reports covering six forest fires that have occurred on Nat ional Forests in Arizona and New Mexico in the past ten days have been received by the District Forester for the South western District at AlbuQuer- que, N. M. Three of these fires were on the Coconino Plateau in Northern Arizona and three in the White Mountain region on the Lincoln National Forest in Southern New Mexico. While none of the fires were extensive or did much damage, two of these in the White Mountain exceed twenty-five acres and were famed by high winds, which made their control diff cult by forest rangers and ranch CTS who were fighting them.
 The mild winter and general deficiency in precipitation in the Southwest during the past few months leads the Forest Service to expect an early and severe season on the National Forests in this region. The District Forester sounds a note of warning to all those who live in or near timbered areas or whose work takes them to such places, to observe every pre- caution against starting fires The situation is especially criti- cal since the high spring winds are about due and this year finds the forests in an excessi- vely dry condition thus creating double hazard at this time.

MYSTERY or OLD EGYPT
Archeolooists at Loss to Explain the
Presence Of Buttons Found
in Country.

Historians, Psychologists and other
experts in ancient lore are trying to
solve the mystery of the buttons found
in ancient Egypt; used In country
and at time In which all garments
were fastened by means Of bands
slipped into place, or by ties and loops.
Buttons were not used.
The button, so far as is known, is Of
south European origin and it, was only
In the last two or three centuries that
il came into use IN north Europe,
where the dress had been tied together
and hose and doublet were fastened
with point and laces
Somehow buttons found their way
from south Europe to Egypt Some
Of these arrived in Egypt at about
$500 b. c.. and others 1900 p. c. His
torians are hoping that with the but
tons as clues they may be able to oh
tain more information connecting the
so-calIed prehistory4 OF Europe with
ihe ages-oid records Of Egypt.-Cleve-
