HAILED AS GREAT DISCOVERY
Farm Gas" of Excellent Quality Pro, duced in England Fran Rubbish
 and Manure Heaps.

A valuable discovery of what may be termed farm gas was made by Lord Elvedon. For nine months without a single failure gas has been produced on Lord Elvedon's Kent farms solely out of his rubbish and manure heap. By piling a part of his manure supply for one day week in a special and very simple retort he can produce gas of very considerable higher heating and lighting power than the commercial gas of London, says an exchange. These results have now been cor rOborated and greatly strengthened by help of another series of experi- ments which are in progress at Roth amstead under skilled chemists, who believe that on an ordinary farm the straw or manure heap may yield at very low expense all the light, heat and power necessary in the house and outbuiIdings. The discovery may be even more valuable to the empire than to England. The con- monest reed of the Nile is especially rich in gas. One of the most impor- tant of the recent discoveries is that straw, without any animal manure, will yield the gas in great volume and purity, and that gas may be ex- tracted from almost any vegetable refuse without the use of any other power than its own dissolution.

INcAs ASK PROTECTION.

An odd ceremony following the celebration of Peru's centenary of independence was the presentation to President Augusta B. Leguia of a memorial inscribed by the 14 liv- ing descendants of the Inca chief, Tupac Yupanqui. In short speech in which he pleaded for the future protection of his race, the Indian, Victor Tupac Yupanqui, made the presentation to the President. The Inca, Tupac Yupanqui, ruled from 142O to 1478, at a time when the Inca empire included most of what is now Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia and Chili.

FEW GREAT W05i-N PAINTERS At Least, Only Two Have Been Ao- corded Recognition by the British
 Royal Academy.

Nowadays there are many women exhibitors at the Royal academy, but in the whole of its history there have been only two women Royal academicians.
 They are Mary Moser and the fa- nous Angelica Kauffmann. Miss Moser won the honor by painting a sublime picture of plate of goose berries.
 Her father was George Michael Moser, a famous enameler, who be- came the first keeper of the academy.
 An amusing story IS told of An gelica Kauffmann, who announced to her friends with considerable en- thusiasm that she had married a Count Horn. Unhappily, 1t turned out that her husband was only Count Horns servant, who had posed as his master. She managed to obtain from the pope a decree of separation.
 On the death of her impostor hus- band she married Zucchi, the Ital- ian painter. Zucchi decorated the Adam houses, among others those in Adelphi strand, including the house now used by the Savage club.-Lon don Tit-Dits.

SCREENS SSADE FOR PURPOSE
Their First Use Probably Was to Pro- tect Priests From Drafts During
 Religious Exercises.

Of the making of many screens there is no end. They, like draper ies, lamps, mirrors, candlesticks and Chinese jade, have been pressed into the cause of adding to a room the right color note in the right place.
 Screens are supposed to have originated with the Chinese, who used the screen design on all their art output in. the very early cen- turies.
 The earliest use of screens was probably to protect the priests from drafts while they celebrated mass in chilly old chapels and cloisters.
 France grew especially fond of the screen and many of her greatest artists wrought their art upon the screen rather than upon canvas. Vatican adorned screens with his favorite motif of lovers and love knots, and in the same era screens of colored serges were found in the homes of even the peasantry.

WOMAN RULES OVER ASSYRlA
Lady Surma, Mesopotamian, Head of New Nation Created as
 Result of War.

Lady Surma, an English edu- cated Mesopotamian, has been for mally declared president of the As syrian distinguished from Syrian by geographical and racial lines) nation, one of the new group of self governing countries coming out of the war. The capital of the new na- tion is Mosul, near the walls of old Nineveh, named after the imperial husband of Semiramis. It is a Brit ish protectorate, and the new ruler will have competent guides to assist her in promoting the destinies of her ancient race.
 Lady Surma is the sister of a Nes- torian patriarch, Mar Simon, killed by the Kurds in Persia during the war, who was the ruler of the As syrians and had thrown in his lot with the allies. The elder bishop was succeeded by his brother, who died, his place being taken by the son of another brother, very young man. Lady Surma, his aunt, be- came the regent and eventually the president. She was educated and represented her people in London during the war, says an exchange.

The next day, at 10 o'clock, Mr.. Val
entino drove Miss Hudnut, Mr.. Gerard
and myself down across the border.
THE CoURT-What date was the
marriage?
At was on the 18th, because Mr..
Valentino said it was a very unlucky
day. Well, we reached Palm Springs be-
tween one and two in the morning. And

There was more argument and endless
citations of previous cases. Finally JUS

verdict the following Monday.
On that day all the principals and spec

room and Justice Handy began to read his
opinion. y. "..... ... ~.
JUSTICE HANBY-After viewing the
evidence carefully am of the opinion
that il is not sufficient to justify con-

ing the probability for conviction in the
Superior Court.
I am satisfied that the evidence here
would not sustain conviction, and |
therefore feel that it is my duty to dis
charge the defendant.
There was a great demonstration out
side of the court room as hundreds Of
"happers" swarmed about the handsome
love target and expressed their congratu-
lations- He blushed, rolled his wicked
eye, and said that he was satisfied.
Next March he will be eligible to re-
sumo his honeymoon with Miss Hudnut

from Jean Acker will then become alb

Q.-Because of your friendship for
Miss Hudnut and Mr.. Valentino you were
reluctant to come here and testify, were
you not?
A.-No.
Q.-Did you know that Detective Ser
geant King and Detective Sergeant Winn
were in the mountains looking for you?
Al did not.
Q.-Did you tell any one on your trip

After DR.. Whites testimony Mrs.
Alvah Hicks, resident of Palm Springs,
who had previously testified in the case,
was recalled to settle the point of the
purple pajamas, once and for all. BY
that time they. had been brought into
court.
QUESTION BY MR.. GILBERT (Law-
yer for Valentino )-Will you please look
at the robes here and state whether or not
these are the ones you saw Mr.. and Mrs.
Valentino wearing out theye-referred to
rs "pajamas?"
ANSWER BY MRS. HICKS-Yes, that
is what Mr.. Valentino wore.
Q.-That is a silk Chinese suit?
A.-That is what he wore in the yard.
Q.-And this is the one that Miss Ram
bova wore?

tacha Rambova. 1t is supposed to be
very mystic and the possessor of it
seemed destined to enjoy success and
good fortune).
A.-Yes.
Q.-Regular Chinese suits?
Mr.. COSTELLO insist that they be
offered into evidence.
THE C0URT-They will be admitted
into evidence.
At this point both sides closed the case
and Mr.. Costello began his argument for
the conviction Of Rodolph Valentino on
charges of bigamy. Innumerable cases
were quoted Of the people versus the un-
fortunate ladies and gentlemen whose
marriages have caused legal rumpuses
here and there, and the decisions in each
case were quoted by the yard.
The Washington times., 1922-08-13

LAWYER FRANK JAMES (for Val
Cntino do you state for the District
Attorneys office that when you learned
Mr.. Valentino had been married in Mexi-
cali and was living in Palm Springs you
began an investigation?
DISTRICT ATTORNEY COSTELLO
We did not start an investigation on hear
ing of this mans marriage. We did not
start an investigation until he came back
from Mexico, entered the State of Cali
forhia and was living with his wife with
another person, man who stayed two
days in the house, and another man who
stayed there one night, which | don't be-
lieve he did.
We knew, and felt then; and feel now
that with the mere presence of this man
in this State after a bigamous marriage
ceremony we could not touch him. But
the moment he brought that woman into
the State, after our information that he
had entered into bigamous marriage out
side the State, and in this State treated
her rs his wife-enjoyed her society and

moon.

A.--On, YES
Q.-I wish that you would just describe
those suits so that we can perhaps relieve
the situation and find out whether they
are suits or pajamas.
The district attorney objected to this
request, as photographs of the garments
we're already in evidence. The pajamas
were considered to be one of the strongest
links in the States chain of evidence. By
the testimony of several witnesses who
saw Mr.. Valentino and Miss Hudnut
breakfasting and lounging about the cot
tage in purple silk suits District Attorney
Costello hoped to prove that the movie
hero's honeymoon had not been inter-
rupted by the bigamy proceedings, as
Valentino had claimed.
To Offset this point, Valentines attor-
neys set up the claim that the purple gar
ments were not pajamas, but Chinese
lounging suits, which Valentino and his
bride could wear anywhere with perfect
propriety, especially in the hot climate of
Palm Springs.
As a result of these conflicting views
the pajamas received more Importance
than they possibly deserved, and the
learned judge gravely considered their
definition. They were first mentioned by
Mrs Romalda Lugo, an Indian housemaid
employed by Valentines host. The testi-
mony of Mrs. Lugo, who was one of the
most important witnesses for the State,
follows:

P""C5RoSsCExAMINATIoN BY LAWYER
GILBERT, REPRESENTING VALEN-
TINO:
Q.-It is hot in Palm Springs at this
time of the year?
.A.-Yes.
rQ.-And these garments that you took
to be pajamas were silk dressing clothes?
A.-Yes.
Q.-How many rooms would you say
there were in the cottage?
A.-There are two bedrooms and liv-
ing room.
Carroll Lynch, a deputy sheriff, living
near the honeymoon bungalow in Palm
Springs, also testified that he had seen
Mr.. and Mrs. Valentino lounging about in
what appeared to be purple pajamas. He
was made to admit that they might have
been Chinese costumes. He also took
occasion to complain of the three dogs
which Valentino took with him on his
honeymoon. The dogs, he said, kept him
awake three nights with their bowling, but
this circumstance enabled him to compute
the number of days that bride and groom
passed in Palm Springs
OF course, the Mexican marriage certi-
hcate was introduced as an essential part
of the evidence.
