Changed His Name.
During Akhnaton's reign. and mono
theistic religion, the temple of Amen
and the old gods were neglected. but
the new Pharaoh. who had now ag-
grandized his name into first Tutank-
nation, and then Tutankhamen, re-es-
tabl1shed these, and in the great in
scrlpI1on at karnak tells us in vivid
phrases how he did so. He says: THE
temples of the gods had come upon
for common feet. The land was over
ridden with plaques and the gods were
neglected. 1t was then that his mai
esty searched for what was useful for
amen, made his image in pure gold
raised monuments to other gods, filled
thelr buildings with foreign slaves
ana multiplied their estates"

have been much remembered had not
time shown traces of his name, under

He had the decency. 1t seems, to
bring Akhnaton's mummy back with
him and buried him in the Valley Of
The Kings, where Mr.. Davis and I

that he played up to the Amen priest

the ambassador declared his country's s

accommoda ton"
Depends on China.
IF at any time" he continued. there
was apparent deviation from this policy,
it was due more to circumstances and
conditions prevailing at the time than
to the motive and intent behind 1t. Why
Japan should be friendly to China is
simple to understand. Japan is SO geo.
graphically situated that her repose and
safety are directly affected by conditions
in China: and then Japan is vastly de-
pendent for her trade and manufacture
on China.
This is why Japan is so deeply in
terested in China's peace and in her
good and stable government. for with
out them the normal intercourse which
is SO vital to our interest cannot take
place. This is why Japan is anxious to
win Chinas good will, for without it our
economic life will be seriously menaced.
1T is for these reasons that Japan
has been and Is showing China every
possible consideration that one can eX-
pect of another Japan is willing to
do for her neighbor whatever is in her
power in the interest of the good rela-

WAR VETS INROW;;
BREAK UP MEETING

Soldiers Clash.

A fine fracas between members OF
the Grand Army OF the Republic and
Spanish American War Veterans
broke up meeting last night at the
G. A. r. Hall. where the joint Me-
mortal day committee of all veterans
organizations had met to plan
peaceful May 80.
Although accounts vary, it is agreed
that the meeting. which grew hotter
as the evening advanced, finally broke
up when an elderly G. A. r. veteran
found himself the center of milling
crowd OF Spanish-American war vet
Grams, who waved their hands and
threatened and may have been pre-
pairing for charge when Command

in their Decoration day exercises.
While motions to appeal from the
decision Of the chair were filling the
air, one Of the G. A. r. veterans, it
is related. jumped up and hurled an
epithet at a Spanish war veteran, who
was calling for an appeal from the
decision of the chair. His language
was the signal for concerted charge
on the 6. A. r. veteran by Spanish
American veterans. and when excite
ment was at its highest, Commander
Reid banged with the gavel, declared
the meeting adjourned. and the battle
was over.
Col o. H. Oldroyd, prominent in G.
