Captain Hobson Safe;
Role Of Missing Man
Played Unwittingly

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 12.-Cap-
tain Richmond Pearson Hobson,
Spanish-American war hero and
prohibition crusader, was safe at
home today after an experience
which, like his adventure in San
tiago bay, left him surrounded with
publicity but unscathed.
A windstorm and brush fire set
the stage on which Captain Hobson
unwittingly played the role of miss
ing husband and father. He had
gone into the hills with his brother,
Major j. M. Hobson, and an inves-
tigator from the district attorneys
office, in search of the majors son
and his own, who had failed to re-
turn from a hiking trip when ex-
pected.
After the three men were we'll
out of reach of telephones, the
missing boys came home. Then
Major Hobson became separated
from his Two companions, and when
he could not find them again,
launched another search of the hills.
High winds and dangerous brush
fire lent substance to the rumor
that all was not we'll with Captain
i1obson and his companion, but re-
ports were proved unfounded when
the two men returned, to their homes
not. knowing that a search had been
started for them

Restoration of Tut's
Relics VIII Require
Years, Scientists Say

NEW YORK, Dec. 12,-It will re.
quire years to restore accurately for
later archaeological study and pub
lie observation the relics found in
the tomb of King Tutenkbamun, in
the Egyptian valley of the kings, the
current bulletin Of the Metropolita II
Museum of Art says.
The fragile condition of the aged
cloths and vestments make impossi-
BILE their repair or even handling.
Three weeks was required to unpack
one small box to enable experts to
note the general appearance of its
objects and the schemes of decora-
ton SO that copies could be made
and the original gold and jeweled
decorations placed with accuracy.
Wooden parts of cbariots buried
with the king were in good condi-
ton, but the leather harness had
been reduced to powder. One robe
was decorated with $4,000 beads
which must be sewed one by one to
a copy. Replicas of ancient sandals
must be made and covered with gold
traDpings.
