SMALL HOMES FOR MANSIONS
Many New England Pretentious DWELL
ings Are Being Divided Into
Modern Houses.

Pittsfield. Mass.-Some Of New
England's fine old mansions are be-
ing sawed apart to make modern
homes. One bit of cross-cut saw
handiwork here was the successful
division of twenty-room house into
two apartment dwellings. One Of the
sections was moved to new site.
The old Whitehead mansion Of
q rooms is to be torn down and
made into many small houses. Its
three huge chimmeys alone are said
TO contain brick enough to build two
modest homes.
Thousands of mansions like this
were built in New England years ago
when materials and labor were in
expensive. Increasing cost of main
tenance has caused many to be sold

Breaches Were Worn in BabyIonia.

6reccnes Were Worn in Babyionia.
Brooches, garment for the legs,
especially, as distinguished from
trousers, for covering the upper por-
lions of the legs, were formerly called
hose In England. Brooches or hose
were In use even among the ancient
Babylonians. In Europe we find them
first used among the Gauls, hence the
Romans called a part of Gaul
"breeched Gaul' (Gallia braccata). In
the Fifth century breeches had be-
come fashionable in Rome. In the
time of Queen Elizabeth and James |
the breeches had assumed enormous
dimensions, being stuffed out with
various materials, as wool, hair. etc.
King James Partially for such
breeches is well known. and we find
him represented In an old engraving
with wide stuffed breaches tapering
to the knee, slashed and adorned with
lace. In the reign of Charles I they
took the form of short trousers, loose
at the knee and ornamented with rib
hons and lace. In the time of William
Ill the tight knee-breeches came in,
and were supplanted by trousers only
in the Nineteenth century.

GLACIAL PERIOD IN DISPUTE
Ample Evidence That IT Existed, but
the Question is. When Did
II End?

when did the glacial period end?
Was it, an American scientist perth
nently asks, when the ice began to dis
appear, or had half disappeared, or
had entirely disappeared?
If the last mentioned, then we are
still In the ice age, for Europe has
Its glaciers, and so have Labrador, the
Rockies, Alaska and islands In the
arctic regions. and. as every schoolboy
is aware, Greenland is nearly covered
with an Ice cap.
Can the question be settled by a
reference to climate? IL so. then the
glacial period ended for, say, the On
tario region at the beginning of Lake
Iroquois, for its trees belonged to a
cold, temperate climate.
Probably the point Is best settled
by making the glacial period a pro-
gressive event. regarding 1t as ending
In one region perhaps thousands Of
years before it ends in another.
Without doubt, this far-off epoch OF
thick-ribbed Ice constitutes one of the
great mysteries of the worlds history.
1t Is absolutely hedged In with uncer-
tainty.
Though 1T Is generally believed that
there was more than one ice age, no
one can say with any degree of GER
tainty whether there were three. four
or six, or dozen, for the matter of
that.
And the deepest of all mysteries
connected with one or any of these
Icy periods Is what was the cause of
them. Both biologists and astrono-
mers have, so far, failed to solve that
problem. 1t is not yet even agreed
as to what extent the ice cap covered
the globe.

GOBS APPLAUD BULL
American Sailors Witness Exhi-
bstion of Portugaps Sport.
More Display of Good Horseman-
ship and SkiiIfuI Feints Than Cruel
Sport az in Spain.

Lisbon.-Sailors of the American
warships who were entertained in this
city when the American squadron Wis
lted Portugal the other day. saw a
portuguese bullfght and Justify
cheered for one of the bulls.
A Portuguese bullfight is more a
display of splendid horsemanship and
skillful feints than cruel sport, such
as the Spanish buIiight. There is no
bloodshed. The bulls are merely
leased by the bullfighters and Others,
who pierce their hides with their tor
menting darts. The horns Of the bulls
are covered with leather balls, so that
they can do no great damage and the
proof of the skill Of the horseman
is never to let his horse get touched
by them.
After that a group of peasants
wearing green-and-red caps advance
into the ring and each tries to throw
himself on the bull. either between his
horns or on his neck, and to cling
there despite the frantic attempts of
the animal. If one succeeds in cling
ing on, the other peasants rush up
and hang onto the bull until he Is
reduced to impotence.
The American boys cheered all this
with great enthusiasm, but the real
outbreak came when one bull leaped
after one of his tormentors over a
wooden partition and into a group of
bullighters, scattering them right and
left.
Roars of laughter filed the enOr-
nous circus and a laundering cheer
and cries Of ''bull, bull, bull' burst
from the Threats of the Americans.
The bullfighters fed in disorder
while the amphitheater resounded
with the laughter and cheers of the
Americans.

JAP FARM TENANTS COMBINE
41s Associations Organized in japan
for Protection of Common
Interests.

Tokyo.-With the remarkable awak-
ening among Japanese industrial work
ers, there has recently been noticeable
in japan growing tendency among
tenant farmers to form combinations
for the protection Of their common
interests as against the landlords.
This is another evidence of the
swift social development In Japan
along western ideas.
At the end of March, 1921, such
combinations of tenant farmers num-
bered 416, with an aggregate member
ship Of 1857. During 1920, 408 cases
of dispute involving 5,235 landlords
and $4,000 tenant farmers were re-
ported.
The most frequent cause was de-
mand for lower rent.

Blaming Official.

a conference with the district attorney
and a delegation Of citizens from
Lorena.
In a telephone conversation with
County Attorney Tierey, Governor Neff
offered state aid In the investigation.
The proffer was declined with thanks,
Tierey said.
Tierey refused the demand of 100
prominent Lorena citizens that he file
complaints against Sheriff Buchanan
and Deputy Sheriff Burton pending
the investigation.
Citizens Blame Sheriff.
Following the meeting with the
county attorney, the Lorena citizens
drew up the following resolution,
signed by 200 additional Lorena citi-
zens for publication:
eve, the undersigned citizens of Lo-
rena and vicinity depore the tragedy
that was enacted In our little town last
night.
"We grieve for the blood that was
spilled. but In order that the world
may know the facts, we desire to make
public the following statement:
1--WE do not believe that the men,
bers of the Ku Klux Khan who staged
the parade violated any law or that
they had any intention of violating any
law.
1--WE attempted to prevail upon the
sheriff Of this county and his deputies
through the medium of dozens of rep
resentative citizens to permit the pa
rade to be held, guaranteeing that 1t
would be iaw-abiding and orderly.
Leaders We're Unmasked.
I'VE Induced the leaders of the pa
rade to accede to the sheriff's demand
that two of the paraders should be I'M
masked.
I'VE implored the sheriff not to
jeopardize the lives OF our women and
children.
"We unequivocally place the blame
for the shedding of blood on the sher-
iff.
1--WE admire and we honor the spirit
and the individual that kept the Amer
lean flag from being tramped to the
earth
I'VE conclude by affirming our belief
In the preservation Of America for
Americans and by offering tribute to
the little band of men who showed by
their calm and determined action that
their lives supported this principle"
The third statement In the above
resolution conflicts with the assertion
OF Sheriff Buchanan, when brought to
hospital here. to the effect that the
men would not unmask. County Alton
ney Tierey refused to make any state
ment on the resolution.

GERMAN DELIVERIES
 UNDER TREATY MADE
 PUBLIC JANUARY 22
[Republican A. p. Leased wirel

BOSTON, Feb. 10-Figures supple the list of deliveries made by Germany to the allies which was issued by the separations commission in Paris Jan. 22, have been compiled by the World Peace Foundation and were made public tonight. The tables show what has been accomplished in ob- taining payment from Germany and effecting. her disarmament.
 There is no basis for computing what percentage of separations is liquidated by Germany's deliveries to that ac- count because there is no bill of par ticulars giving her liabilities" the foundation says.
 Germany" it continues, "has remit ted to the separations commission 50 billion marks gold bearer bonds to be cancelled by payments in goods and gold, and there is no unnatural diff ference between the parties as to the value of the commodities delivered. The German claim is that the 23,S90,- e00,O00 gold marks represents the pay ments already made, the reparations commission says these substantially ex- ceed the real figures"
 Some comparisons of debt and pay ment are afforded. There has been a delivery Of 360,176 beasts as against a treaty demand of 370,e00. A delivery in one year of 2,054, ITO tons of ship 9l5 tons by Great Britain"
 The statement gives details as to restitution, no items of which are credited to reparations. Under this head it says Germany has restored to France and Belgium, 13,560 farm i'm plements, 271.207 tons of industrial material 397 lomocotives and 18,e2S freight cars.
 The total delivery of arms credited neither 50 separations nor restitution is given as T1,932 cannon, 1s1,067 ma chine guns 5,2o1,5s4 rifles, 1s,000 air planes and 25,0o0 airplane motors. be- sides other war material.
 The statement gives the disposition of 40 capital and IA other ships of the German navy.

Republican A. p. Leased wirel

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Feb. 20 = American legion posts were asked to- night by the legion's national head quarters to watch for revival of Ger man propaganda.
 The bulletin sent to all state head quarters by the national headquarters said that mass meetings in several cities, including Omaha, have been planned as .1one of the first national manifestations of the propaganda cam paign, the object of which, the bulletin outlined as follows:
 Disruption of the accord which ex- ists between the United States and our allies with particular reference to France and Great Britain by the turn ing of American popular sentiment against the governments of those countries and
 ''Methodical creation of a powerful national political machine, by the anal gamation of disloya1 elements of our nation and the elevation to a place of power in American politics by the invisible influence of this organized minority"
 "One of the first national manifesto tions of this activity will probably take the form of mass meetings" the bull letin continued, "ostensibly in protest against the occupation of the Rhine by French negro troops. The alleged pres ence of French colonials is to be used as a motive to turn American sentf- ment against France. Negro troops were withdrawn from the French army of occupation months ago. Their cor duct was excellent, according to reports from the American ambassador at Paris. Identified with this movement are individuals whose disloyalty and whose efforts in the interest of Ger
