African Expedition
Gets Gorilla Family
For History Museum
Andrews Party, in Quest of
Golden Fleece Slumbles
ON Brigand Battle i'm China;
Saved by First Aid Kit

A new family of five goril1as, the
largest having span of feet inches
and weighing 800 pounds, will be added
soon to the collection of the American
Museum Of Natural History as a result
of Carl Z. Akeley's success in his pres
cnt expedition at the head of the South
African exploration party. Word also
has been received from Roy Chapman
Andrews, leader Of the museums third
Asatic geological expedition, that a
takin and splendid lot of small nam
mails, some new to science, have been
killed in China.
Cablegrams received yesterday by
Henry f. Osborn, president Of the mu-
scum, locate the Akeley party in the
Lake Tanganyika region of south
Africa, near the borderland of German
East Africa and the Belgian Congo.
Dr. Akeley left last summer for the
African wids with the express purpose
of finding gorillas in their native
haunts, taking motion pictures of them
and obtaining several impressive speci-
mems for permanent exhibition in the
museum.
In the latest letter received from the
other taxidermist and hunter, Mr.. An
drews, the story of adventure in China
is recorded. He writes:
~ am now on the train en- route to
Peking after the trip into Shensi in pur-
suit of takin. 1t was the hardest trip
we ever had. We had fearful work in
the toughest mountains of China, and
we came as close to having adventures
as | have ever come. There was good
bit of fighting going on about us, and
we ran squarely into crowd of two
hundred brigands, but my medical kit
came in very nicely. | patched up
wounded men for an entire day and
they were very grateful. They treated
gave us guard of honor until we were
out of the danger zone. 1t was an in
teresting little experience, and proves
my doctrine that understanding of the
people avoids adventures. We got the
takin and splendid lot of small mann
mails, many of which are certainly new
to science.
"The takin is curious animal of
rather cowlike appearance, distantly
related to the chamos, the serow and
our own Rocky Mountain goat. 1t has
been called the Chinese buffalo. 1t
bears little outward resemblance to our
American bison, but appears to COM
bine the characters of the antelope,
goat, yak and moose. It's coat is golden
yellow, and this circumstance, together
with the rarity of the animal and the
difficulties in the way of obtaining it,
make the hunt for the takin another
quest for the golden fleece"

Sections; October Con-
tracts, 100000 900

Contracts awarded in this territory
up to the last day of October we're
within milling distance of the phenomi-
nal year 1920, which was the biggest
in the 'sity's history says the Dow
Service Building Reports. If the
same nrmber of contracts are awarded
from November / to December 81 as
were awarded in this city in the month
of October, 1921 will pass 1920 by more
than $sO,000,000 worth of actual con-
structiem work with business building
taking second place in rating for type
of construction activity.
The same is true of the so-called
national construction field as far as
records on it are available. This years
contract awards, if continued in De-
cember, will bring the construction
total up to within touching distance of
l920's record which, like 1919, passed
the ,S2ooo,ooo,ooo mark. Contract
awards in October were in excess of
$200,0Q0,0O0 and if that rate is con-
tinued for the remainder of the year
it will equal, if not actually pass, the
best building record ever attained.
Buildings actually projected in October
were reported to be approximately
100000 600.
1t Is upon such exhibits as the fore
going that building material manufac-
turers have been revising their manu-
featuring schedules of late, so that on
November 80 nineteen cement manufac-
turers had available for winter or early
spring needs 27,300,0OO barrels of ce-
ment stock on hand as against 18,460,-
600 barrels on October 81, 1921, com
pared with only 11,800,0 900 barrels on
hand ON November 30, 1920.
While no official count has been
made Of the reserve stocks of Hudson
commtm brick up the river, the impress
sion In the trade is that the manufac-
turers have piled up more than was at
first estimated in anticipation of posi-
BILE oEen winter weather conditions.
New freight rates on lumber, shin
giles and lumber products from the
West Coast were authorized November
12 and may become operative Decem-
ber Is. Under the $106h rate, on
the basis Of $500 pounds, the average
weight per thousand feet of lumber,
$266Eh was the average approximate
cost of transporting by rail thousand
feet of lumber from the west coast
points to the New York or New Eng
land territory. The cost of transport
ing that quantity now will be $3.50.

Pope Praises Achievements

ROME, Dec. 11.-Replying to a dis
course in the Consistory Hall to-day by
Father Murray, general of the Re-

Bishop Neumann as missionary and

dred schools in the diocese of Philadel-
phia. He concluded by imploring Gods
blessing on the prelate.

Recognition of Metaxakis
To Be Refused by Greece
Newly Elected Patriarch of Or
thodox Church Now Is
i'm New York

LONDON, Dec. 1.-THE Greek gov
ernment announces its intention not to
recognize the Most Reverend Meletois
Metaxakis, the newly elected Patriarch
of the Greek Orthodox Church in Con-
stantinople, says a Reuter- dispatch
from Athens. 1t also announces the
breaking off of relations with the
Patriarchate in the belief that the
Patriarchs Of Jerusalem, Alexandria
and Antioch and the Metropolitans in
the newly annexed territory will do
likewise.
The election Of Archbishop Metaxa-
kis has aroused great indignation in
Athens. The government holds that
the election was irregular and that it
was engineered under the pressure of
the followers Of former Premier Veni-
zelos. The Holy Synod, the dispatch
adds, has received telegram from
Synod who have resigned, protesting
against the illegalty of the election
1t is reported that they intend to elect
temporary Patriarch at Brusa.
Meletois Metaxakis, Patriarch-ele ect
of the Eastern Orthodox Church, who
is in New York, yesterday appealed to
the Rt. Rev. Thomas F. Gailor, presi-
dent of the National Council Of the
Episcopal Church, for the support OF
that body in obtaining action from the
world powers to curb renewed outrages
of the Turks under Kemal Pasha
against Christians in the Near East
Fresh massacres have started in Asia
Minor, according to Meletois.

NOTES FROM THE
DAVIS MUSIC STORE

Oscar Seagle's father was a preach
err, and even when Oscar was small
boy he sometimes led the singing at
his fathers meetings. When a young
man he studied law but later gave up
his practice for his art. His voice is
golden baritone and he sings the
words as well as the ''tune". You will
delight in listening to his beautiful
rendition of old favorite songs, "Life's
Railway to Heaven" is one of his
many good numbers.
With Grafonola in your home you
could hear such singers as Oscar Sea-
gle any time.
Ira Thurman, on Route 2, who has
Grafonola, says he wouldn't be with
out it at any price.
The latest sheet music is waiting
for you at our store.
You couldn't find a better time to
make kodak pictures than now. Ask
John Westwood, who won the prize
for the best kodak picture this week.
Kodaks for rent at 10c day at our
store.
A picture without a frame is like a
home without music. We can supply
both.
A few minutes pleasantly spent in
our studio is all you have to do to gel
a good portrait of yourself.
