Howard Carter and Amer
lean Associates Still
Pursue Pharaoh.
100 WORKERS HIRED
Mummy Will Be Found Just
as 1t Was Buried,
Carter Believes.
By the Associated Press.

Luxor, Egypt, Oct. 19.-Prepara-
tons for lifting the 1000 tons of
earth, stone and wooden joists that
now rest over the tomb of Tutank-
hamen are proceeding.
Howard Carter and his American
associates, Messrs. Gambler and Bur-
ton. have re-established themselves in
their lonely concrete domiciles at the
entrance of the Valley of Kings and
b have made a preliminary survey of
the work that must be done before the
inner tomb. believed to contain the
mummy of the pharaoh, can be opened.
The psychologists estimate that at
least a fortnight will be required to
clear away the vast heap of rubbish
that now shields the king from the
outside world.
100 Natives Engaged.
It is possible that narrow-gauge
railway loaned by the American arch
geological mission will be used to has
ten the work.
Nearly 100 of the native excavators
who helped Mr.. Carter uncover the
tomb last summer have been re-en-
gagged at stipends which make Ameri-
can union wages look like fortunes.
Each digger is to receive II cents a
day, with a slight bonus at the end
of the Season if the pharoah's body is
found within the sarcophagus.
Most of the laborers are boys of from
10 to IS, but some of them are grown
men who support two or three wives
on this slender remuneration.
1t is probable that Pharaoh Tutank-
hamen will be undisturbed for many
weeks as the dismantling of his null
tiple tabernacle of gold will require
the most painstaking labo- and skill.
To Use Chemials.
The delicate parts of the outer and
inner shells will have to be treated
chemically and the utmost care taken
to guard them against breakage.
In addition to this, the entire wall
shielding the sepulchre from the other
chambers probably will have to be de-
molished so as to permit the archaeOlo-
gists sufficient room in which to work.
Mr.. Carter is still sanguine that the
body of the King will be revealed just
as Il was buried. The fact that the
use of the X-ray in determining what
contains the mummy.
1t is possible that when the labors
OF the season are over the Egyptian
government will arrange to place a
large glass slab over the sarcophagus
so that visitors from all parts of the
world can see what will probably prove
to be the most perfect example of royal
mummy ever discovered. II this is
done, the tomb will be Illuminated by

DIRECTIONS FOR POTATO SEED
TREATMENT

Select as clean seed as possible and
treat several days before planting if
possible Wetting the potatoes l2 to
"a hours before treating viii make
the treatment more effective Treat
loose if possible as the fiber in the
sacks absorbs the chemical rapidly
This can be done by having one or
more barrels or half barrels on a plat
form 80 that the solution can be drawn
off and transferred from one barrel
to another after each lot is treated
Use in the proportion of four ounces
Of corrosive subliniate dissolved in hot
Ions Leave uncut potatoes in this
solution for ninety minutes then re-
move and dry after each lot is treat
ed. Add in the proportion of u
ounce of dissolved corrosive sublimate
for every five bushels treated as the
solution loses strength when used. Dis
card solution and make fresh solution
after six lots have been treated. For
example, if two and half bushels are
treated at time add IA ounce of
dissolved corrosive sublimate, if 81
bushels are treated at once add one
half ounce, if 10 bushels, add ! ounce,
etc. Corrosive sublimte is deadly
poison and potatoes treated in it are
poisonous. The solution win not, how
ever, hurt the hands. Use glass, wood
en- or earthen, never metal, containers.

COMMUNITY CHURCH.

The sermon for Sunday morning
will be the first in series of five
sermons on evolution, the most
thought provoking subject before the
thinking world today. The subject
will be thoroughly discussed in all its
leading phases during the next five
weeks. The two phases of evolution
the genealogical and the biological
will furnish the background of
these discussions. The greatest among
scholars will be literally quoted both
for and against evolution. It's effect
on religious thought will be stated.
Is evolution scientific7 Is it condu-
Give to spiritual progrcss7 Should it
be taught in public schoolsf These
and many other questions of more
than common interest will be answer
ed scripturally and logically.
Other topics of the day will be dis
cussed at the evening services during
the next few weeks. The theme for
Sunday evening is on Americanization
the topic being "The Ideals of True
American. The evening services will
be held in the Church of the Brethren
during the month of May.

Was Convicted at arangeville of II
legal Sale of Oil stock-case
Appealed; Out On Bond.


G, w. Brockman, well known in this
community, where he resided many
years, as Billy Broekman, . was con

vile Tuesday on the charge of selling
stock illegally, and yesterday morning
Judge Scales fixed his sentence at a
fine of $1,000 His counsel at once
appealed the case, and he was given
his liberty on furnishing bond for
$1,000 for his appearance.
The following news of the case was
sent out from Grangeville Tuesday:
jury in the district court here to-
day required but 90 minutes to bring
in verdict of guilty against c. w.
Brockman, who was tried for illegal
sale of stocks in the state of Idaho
without having received permission
from the state finance department.
The convicted man was an ~officer in
the, Texas & Northwestern Oil Co. at
the time of the commission of the
crime for which he was today found
guilty.
According to statements made here
by attorneys this is the first case in
the state whore conviction has been
had for violation of the so-called blue
sky law of the state.
Immediately following the jury's
verdict four other complaints were
sworn out against Brockman, those
alleging the same charges as lodged
against him in the case ending today,
and one against r. Fl. Russell, Jr.. |
whom it is alleged was associated with
Brocknan in the disposing of the |
stock and who shared in the commits.

lgainst Brockman only. The first
hree complainants reside here and
