The House Concurs. and a Joint Com.

Tallahassee, Fla. April g. (Associ

up today for legislative investigation
into the death of Martin Tabert of
North Dakota, who is alleged to have.
been taken from a freight train in this
State in December. 1921 tried at night
Sent to private contract camp and to

ed yesterday for joint legislative in

posed of two members from the Senate
and three from the House.
The committee. which is charged
with calling upon Governor Nestor OF
North Dakota for all evidence in the
case. will not begin its work before
some time next week.
Tabert's death already has occupied
.. large part of the first four days OF
tho Florida Legislature in its bienniai
sixth days session and has provided
fire works for what would ordinarily
have been routine organization pro-
ceedings. When the House hopper was
opened today two bills were introduce
ed to abolish the county convict lease
system under which it is asserted that
Tabert died.
On the Tabert case proper. the
House acted quickly today. the slight

was first injected, yielding with but

the inquiry be exhaustive in order
that any abuse similar to Tabert's case
might be eliminated. It recommended
that the investigating committee be
not composed of any members from a

vengeance idea as the "sheerost non
sense
The London Times in an editorial
'on Lord Carnarvon says:
Lord Carnarvon was not to enter
the inmost shrine of the sealed cham
Der ut Luxor. or to gaze upon the feat
ures of Tutankh-Amen. He has been
stricken few brief months after he
had made the discovery which won for
him place forever among Egyptian
archaeologists. 1t seemed that within
few months more the great prize OF
all must almost certainly be his. Every
thing went to show that, with the next
cold weather his costly labOrs of six
teen years would meet with a unique
reward. a reward excelling all that HES
yet been gathered in, as greatly as
these treasures excel those unearthe6
by former explorers. But this 7'rown-
ing success was not to be his. Other
hands will open the mysterious shrine
Of the dead king. Other eyes will look
for the first time in 5000 years upon
It's contents. Other brains will decirlr
or and interpret their meaning:
SAYS WORLD HoNC9ED
CARNARVON
"All the world and more especially
all the English speaking world, re:6ic
eel in Lord Carnarvon's success and
shared his confidence in a yet grander
success to come They will feel very
real regret that it is not to come for
him, that he was not fated to grasp
the prize which seemed so surely to
await him. There was much to do for
Cecil Rhodes when the last summons
came, and there was much to do for
Carnarvon, but of Carnarvon as Of
Cecil Rhodes it cannot be truly said
that there was little done. He died as
our greatest sailor died and as some
of cur greatest soldiers have died,
with assurance of a croWning success
he was destined not to see, and con-
seriousness that his fame is secure"
Sir Frederick Kenyon. Director OF
the British Museum paid a high tri-
hute to Lord Carnarvon. He said:
"The very magnitude of Carnarvon's
success in the Valley of Kings, a sue
cess that rewarded him for years of eff
fort and one that has greatly enriched
knowledge Of ancient Egypt also led
in one sense to his death. The discov-
cry Of the tomb was triumph. but H.
was also great worry. and the many
complications and difficulties that
arose around Carnarvon and Howard
Carter at Luxor must have entailed a
severe strain upon the Earl's energy.
and health. After the first tumult Of
success there were endless worries.
The name of Luxor was flashed around
the world, and vast interest was CEN
tired on the valley. Lord Carnarvon al
ready fully occupied with guarding
the tomb and care and disposition of
its contents was also distracted by off
Gals and their trains Of problems"
Sir Frederick expressed deep sorrow
at the fate of Carnarvon in his mo.
ment of success and said Egyptology
had lost by his death a most enthusiasts
tic and gifted worker.

PARIS PROPHETESS HAS
A THEORY

Paris. April According to fam
tess Nine. Fraya Lord Carnarvon
was a victim Of what is known in
Egyptian and Oriental occultism as
the doctrine of double"
According to Egyptian occult theor-
les, the human spirit consists of two
parts, OF which the higher spiritual
part cannot he held after death by any
terrestrial power from departing heav
onward, while the lower and more ma
terial part. known as the astral body.
can be bound to earth by certain mag
ic formula. 1t is this astral body
which represents the world of impress
sions and images and it is for the a,
trail body that food, scents and etc,
are supplied in tombs after death.
Egyptian high priests according to
Madame Fraya wish to retain in Egypt
AL the eminent spirits. That is why
they placed curses on all those desc
Grating the mummies of Pharoahs. Ap
parent1y the dissertation OF n mummy
enables the astral body to freely de.
part. According to Madam Fraya. there
fore, Lord Carnarvon fell victim to
the high priests spell and imprecar-
ions.
The prophecies points out that East
crn occult science abounds in spells OF
this nature. and recalls the story OF
President Carnot's statuette. When
Carnot then young, received a Hindu
statuette he was told never to par;
it until he reached the summit of his
career. on which its possession would
assist him greatly. When the summit,
was reached however, he must immedi

London April 6.-"Broadcasting," a
system Of communication without

ever-increasing agitation among the
Negroes in Africa. Broadcasting, or
long-distance transmission, is accom-.
plished by means of drums, the mes
sages being relayed over tremendous
distances with great rapidity.
BY drum talk" as it is sometimes
called, news OF the approaching visit
of American notables to Marshal Lyau
tey in Morocco was learned on the Up

was published in Paris. News of the
death OF great chiefs and warnings of
approaching danger are sent in this
way, and also the native propaganda
which is said to be promoting unrest
in Eastern, Western and Southern AT

Agitation in a form resembling Boil

of this agitation is said to be due to

WORK
Marcus Garvey,, self-styled "Emper
or of Africa" informed The Associat-.
ed Press yesterday that drum talk was
being used to educate the Negroes OF
Africa in Political philosophy, because
open propaganda for enlightenment
Of the race was prevented by the au-
thoi tiles ruling the various colonies.
Garvey, who holds the title of Presi
dent General of the Universal Negro
Improvement Association, received
reporters in the Harlem editor
ial rooms Of The Negro World, and list
ened with interest to the reading of "A

Garvey said that in q quarter or half
a century he expected to see establish
ed " United States OF Africa. with Ne
groes governing their own destiny He
added that when the white race came
to see that the Negro was capable OF
elf-government. he believed political
rights would be given to the native

Garvey said tl,ft agents of his asst

Then said Garvey, the agents had

conveyed rapidly and for great distan

the dots and dashes of telegraphy was
employed. he said, adding that al

ROAD AID BILL IS INTRODUCED
 BY SUTHERLAND
Seeks to Amend Federal Highway Act to Get Ad-
 ditional Road Money.

To include Alaska in the Federal aid road construction program as it is extended to the States is the aim Of a bill recently introduced in the House of Representative by Delegate Ihn Sutherland, copies of which have just been received here. In an interview given The Empire just be- fore he left here for Washington several weeks ago. the Delegate an- nounced his intention of making such an effort and pledged himself to use all his energy to pushing the bill through the present session of Congress.
 The bill introduced by him pro- vides: That Section two of the Federal Highway Act of November 9. 1921, as amended by the Act of June 9, 1922, (Pub. PAD, be, and the same is hereby amended eeffctiYe July 1, 1923 by adding thereto the following: The term The State shall mean any State in the United States of America and the Territory of Alaska
 If this measure is enacted into law, 1t will extend all of the Fed eral aid provisions of the Federal Highway Act to the Territory and add annually large sums to the amounts heretofore appropriated for road and trail construction. It has been estimated had the full pro visions of the Act been applicable 10 Alaska from the date of it's or igfnal enactment, approximately $4,- 900, ,000 would have been available for road work without calling for ether than the usual amount of Territorial road appropriations.
 The present appropriations bill carrying funds for Federal road aid, as recommended by the House com mittee, provides for $30,000,00O for that purpose. Out of that amount, of Alaska is admitted on the same basis as the public land states of the West, about Sl,500,000 1t is estimated. would be available for the Territory.
