CHARGE DEMOCRATS

FOR HIGH TAXES
(By the Republican State Central
Committee)


Reno, New, Oct 10-Why the cost
of operating Nevada's state govern
ment is more than double what 1t
was eight years ago when Repub-
lican administration was in charge.
its present expenditures are now
twice as the average OF the other far
western states, and why Nevada's

the state ticket is concerned. anu
Furthermore the persistent failure
and inability of the Carson City Of

disturbing facts has thrown con-

Democratic politicians at Reno and

HUNT SECRET OF
YOUTH in TIBET
English Expedition Hopes to Pen
citrate Mysteries Of Ancient
Monasteries.
PRIESTS HAVE STRANGE POWER
Mission Expects to Find Rare Vol.
umss Written Shortly After the
Great Deluoe-Are All Of
Buddhist Faith.

London.-The veil Of mystery which
shrouds Tibet and the forbidden city
OF Lhassa may soon be pushed aside.
Recently group Of English inves-
tigators left London for Tibet. There
they hoped to obtain from Buddhist
priests secrets of great and mysteri-
GUS powers they are rumored to pos
sess.
If the expedition succeeds it may
mean a great step forward for the
white race-Or 1t may mean nothing
at all.
The investigators are headed by D.
w. M. McGovern. One Of the prin-
cipal rumors- they will investigate is
the statement that Tibetans have the
power to lengthen the span Of human
life.
Know Secret Of Youth.
1t Is said there are Tibetan priests
who have been in the priesthood more
than century. 1t has been believed
that the priests possess the secret for
which Ponce de Leon sought in vain.
Whether there is any truth in the be-
lief Is one of the things In which the
mission Is interested.
Another matter the mission pro-
poses to investigate is the belief that
Tibetan mOnasteries contain books
written thousands Of years before the
art of letters was introduced into the
western world.
1t has been rumOred that in some
of these monasteries where no white
man has ever been allowed to enter,
are rare volumes written shortly after
the great flood, giving an authentic &C
count Of the great deluge. Thus far
the white world has been compelled to
rely upon the Jewish legend contained
in the Bible and the legends of other
peoples.
Wealth in Libraries.
London is confident the investiga-
tors will find material of great i'm
portance in the libraries, records
which will clarity many puzzling chap
tiers in the early history Of the world.
Whether or not the mission will ac-
complish the great things expected of
it remains to be seen. Tibet has never
welcomed intrusion from the outside
world. A few short years ago a white
man took his life into his hands to
visit the country
In the last few years, however, the
attitude of the country has changed
slightly-perhaps on account of Great
Britain's invasion.
One thing which will be in favor
of the men composing the English
mission is the fact that all connected
are of the Buddhist faith. The leader
is Buddhist priest and as such will
be able to get into much closer touch
with the priests who guard the great
secrets, If such they are, than would
one of the Christian faith.
The members Of the mission are not
so sanguine about finding a fountain
Of youth, but they do believe their in
vestigations will be Of great historical
value. All this provided, of course,
that Tibet allows itself to be "inves-
tigated." If not, about as much as the
average tourist.

WILL You HAVE COAL TO BURNT

We have been warned that there
will be a coal shortage this winter
and many Of us are wondering just
how to cope with the situation.
Civilization progressed in the days
before man knew there was such a
fuel as coal. But now, with our
furnaces, we are dependent upon it.
Yet we can do something in the way
of substitution. We can at least
burn less coal.
Oil stoves, electric heaters, gaso-
line stoves-any number of other
heaters are on the market to cope
with the emergency. There is coke
to be had in many parts Of the
country.
Soft coal is available in some dis
tricts. It is not pleasant to use,
but it provides heat, and that, after
all, will be the more important con-
sideration. Soft coal burned in a
furnace which has been built for
the use of hard coal will require a
special CRATE.
If there are several open fireplaces
in your home you can burn wood in
the parts Of the country where wood
is accessible. The new gas or cleo
trio logs also may be had in the
cities. When placed in the fireplace
openings they cast an even heat
about the room and save much
labor.
Oil stoves are difficult to handle
and require more work to keep
clean. But they are cheap and burn
a comparatively cheap fuel. Pur-
chase your oil in quantity and you
will save money. 1t is penny wise,
pound foolish to purchase oil by the
quart or gallon if one has a place to
store it.

ALIVE; SC0LDS UNDERTAKEN
Victim Of cataIepsy Complains Long
and Loudly Of Funeral Rites
In Progress. -

London.-The story Of how dead
man scolded an undertaken is told by
the Paris correspondent of the Daily
Express.
A railway employee named Pierre
Lesmelin on Saturday complained of
strange pains in his head, and he went
to bed. When the caretaker Of the
fiat visited him some time later his
breathing had apparently stopped and
his heart had ceased to beat.
The woman concluded that the man
was dead. She reported his death to
the authorities at the town hall and
sent kilograms to his relatives in the
province Then she laid the body out
for burial and placed candles at the
head and foot.
On Monday arrangements were
made with an undertaken and a grave
was prepared. The undertaken and
his assistant duly arrived with a
coffin, but when they entered the room
they found the supposed dead man
loudly complaining of the indignities
which had been inflicted on him.
Lesmelin had been III a state Of
catalepsy.

MOTHER SYMPTOMS PROPHECIES
IN 1885.

The lines known as Mother Ship
toms Prophecies" were first publish
ed In England in 1885, before the
discovery of America, and of course,
before any Of the discoveries and in
ventions mentioned therein. All of
the events predicted have come to
pass, except in the last two para
graphs:
Carriages without horses still go,
and accidents fill the world with
woe.
Around the world thoughts shall
fly in the twinkle of an eye.
Water shall yet more wonders do,
now strange, yet shall be true.
'The world upside down shall be
and gold be found at the root of
tree
Through hills man shall ride and
no horse nor ass be at his side.
Under water man shall walk,
shall ride, shall sleep, shall talk.
I'm the air man shall be seen in
white, in black, in green.
Iron in water shall float as easy
as wooden boat.
God shall be found in stone in a
land that is now unknown.
Fire and water shall wonders
do. England shall at last admit a
Jew.
"And this world to an end shall
come in eighteen hundred and nine
ty-one."

II deaths in Kentucky are as nu.
merous during the second six
months of the calendar year 1922
as they were during the months
from January through June, the
States death rate will be materi.
ally higher than it was in 1921, SAYS
j.. r. BLACKBERRY, director of the State
Board of Health's Bureau of Vital
Statistics.
The death rate for the first six
months Of this calendar year was
liz, which is an increase of 10 Der
cent from the 10.1 rate for 1921.
This rate of increase probably will
be maintained throughout the entire
year, Mr.. Blackerby said.
Deaths from influenza, he added,
contributed most to the general in
crease, there being s92 deaths from
this cause, as against TT for same
period in 1921 and 263 for that en-
tire year.
THE increase in the influenza
death rate" Mr.. Blackerby added,
is generally attributed to the fact
that the period of immunization of
those vaccinated during the epidem-
les of 1918 and 1919 has expired.
With the subsistence of the general
alarm prevalent at that time, gen.
eral use of the serum was more or
less abandoned, and the early symp-
toms of those afflicted were not con-
sidered serious though to call a
physician. The call, figures show,
was for the undertaken instead in a
pathetically large number of cases."
