GRAVE OF BISHOP is
FOUND NEAR PEKINC

PEKING, Nov. f4.-(By Asso.
ciated Press 1.-THE body of Berna-
din della Chiesa, first Christian
Bishop of Picking, who died Deem
Der 81, 1921, has been disinterred
and reburied with fitting cere-
monies at Hungschialou, suburb
OF Tsinan, after being lost for two
centuries.
Bishop della Chiesa was born
May 8, 1914. at Venice where he
later poined Franciscan order. He
belonged to the same family as The
late pope, Giacomo della Chiesa.
This relationship was largely re-
sponsible for the efforts to locate
the grave of the bishop, according
to aticles in Chinese papers.
When della Chiesa became bish-
op of Picking there was bitter CON
tention between the Jesuits on one
hand and the Dominicans, Francis
cans and other orders on the 9TH
er. AS a result of the strife, so
the story goes, Bishop della Chiesa
did not reside in Pekin but lived
at L'ntsing, where he died. he
was buried in a large Christian
cemetery four and a half miles
south of the city.
The headstone and oratory at
the grave disappeared; the mound
sank and became neglected, and all
trace of the burial place was lost.

LAWFUL LARCENY is
PARAMOUNT SPECIAL

Lawful Larceny" the Para
mount special production playing at
the Rylander theatre on Thursday
and Friday, is said to be the last
word IN lavish costuming and elab-
crate settings. There are some
special dance numbers that are real
knockouts in themselves, and the
atmosphere of ancient Egypt is
introduced by means of prologue,
in which Nita Naldi is seen as
Cleopatra.
The cast includes Nita Naldi,
Conrad Nagel, Hope Hampton and
Lew Cody, four OF the stare of
the Paramount stock company.
The story concerns a young wife
who on returning from "trip
abroad finds that her husband has
fallen into the clutches of design
ing woman and her male accomplish,
aud has given an |. o. U. for a
large amount The wife sets
about to get back his money, as
well as her husbands l. o. u, and
thereby save his honor
How she succeeds is Interestingly
shown in the ensuing scenes of the
picture, in which Miss Hampton, in
the role of Marion Dorsey, manages
in a decidedly novel manner to effect
an acquaintance with Guy Tarlow,
accomplice Of Vivian Hepburn,
modern Cleopatra, who has Mari
on's husband under her thumb, and
through him is brought to Vivian's
gambling rooms. Matters start to
hum when the latter learns the
identity Of this visitor.
Today's attraction at the Rylan-
der is "Rouged Lips" with Viola
Dana, in which this delightful little
star is said to have one of her most
pleasing roles.

Not politically speaking
But down the main corridor of a
local hotel, to finish peripatetically
our interview, begun just a little
while before over the comfortable
remnants of a breakfast of hot
cakes and ham in the hosiery din
ing room.
The thrice aspirant for the coun-
try's presidency was in hurry or.

Some Rapier Irony.
He passed over Governor Pin
cchot's recent pillorying of the pro-
hlbition machine and its apparent
lncapability to cope with growing
disregard for enforcement Of the
Volstead act with such lightning
dispatch that the mind was left
aquiver and doubtful as to wheth-

the excoriation.
No grapejuice appeared on the
board, but he ate his ham with a
great relish and pushed through
the steaming plate of hot cakes

ring to the uprising of public senti-
ment IN favor of total temperance.
Speaking of Governor Pinchot's
declaration, in which he aruosed

prohibition enforcement machine
as politically hampered agency,

attempt on the part of the state to

The action of the governor in

enforcement but in harmonious law
enforcement"

CUBAN TW|RLER IDOL

Luque Lauded For Splendid
Pitching Record In
Havana

HAVANA, Nov. 14.-(By Asso-
eiated Press --Adolfo Luque, prem
Ter. twirler of the National League
is for the time the symbol of
Cuba's national pride and the idol
of the small boy, the girl, and in
fact almost everybody.
Cuba, or at least that. part around
Havana, loves baseball and Gu al
ternoons and all day Sundays the
year round there is hardly va
cant lot without its improvlsed dla-
mond, in addition to the we'll APP
pointed parks of the semi-profes-
sional amateur leagues. The Gin
cinnati aces career was followed
last summer by hundreds of fans
who stood around score boards or
harried the newspapers FOR tele-
phonic information.
When the Cuban twirler return
ed home, the army and the navy
almost every civic organ cation
and every local baseball associa-
ton turned out to do honor to IA
Habano Periecto" The Perfect
Havanan.
He was made manager of the
Havanan baseball team and crowds
almost mobbed the ball park when
he was expected to pitch; sporting
editors contested to see who could
print most about him; the "Luque
Tie" and other articles appeared
in store windows and the comic
Weeklies began to show his face al
most as freqently as they did those
of President Zayas, Ambassador
Crowder or "Liborio," the Cuban
Uncle Sam.
And Luque along with Liborio
occupies a place that the head of

LONDON, Nov. 14.-(By Assoc

COME FROM WHEN OLD
SCOTLAND GOES Dry!
British Writer Sees World Co
ing Dry And Asks Inter-
esting Question
JOHNSON LEADS IN FIGHT
Jeffrey Farnol, British Writer,
Thinks England Will Follow
Lead of Scotland
Bv MAURICE HENLE


NEW YORK, Nov. 14.-Haig
and Haig, well-known Scotch team,
will have retired fir, III the bonny
wee footlights in another genera
ton. And Johnny Walker, also a
Scotch comedian of no mean ability
once you get him started, will by
that time be fit candidate for
the Old Mems Home.
That's the prediction brought to
this country by Jeffery Farnol,
famous English weaver Of roman
tic novels.
Scotland, he thinks, stands a
good ch9nce of going dry. Maybe
within a generation.
America" says the novelist, "is
pointing the way. AS she is lead
ing, so will the world follow. The
prohibition act here in the United
States, while probably too extreme,
is but an indication Of the way. the
wind of the world is blowing.
The entire world will be dry
some day. Sooner probably than
either the American or English
public thinks"
And Farhol is wondering where
Scotch whisky will come from when
Scotland goes dry. For he is no
prohibitionist.
"Pussyfoot johnson is concen-
trating on Scotland" he says. "And
| really believe Scotland will go dry
before England. We English are
a drinking people. But the
Scotch = they will have their tea !"
Whereupon he asked me to have
drink-of plain unadulterated
tea.
The drink moved to sober
thought. Here was a man whose
early life was one long succession
Of knocks and bumps. Twenty-four
years ago he came to New York
to make good. He was about 81.
But he could not get much mate
rial published, and to earn money
he painted scenery in the Aston
theater. At night he finished what
has proved his best seller, ''The
Broad Highway" But he could
find no publisher, and finally in
desperation he sent It back home to
Londcfl. 1t was accepted and ne
went home, too.
And with the exception of the
few days he was here to report the
Dempsey Carpenter fight for a
London newspaper, he has remain

the question was asked.
mo! Because publicity is .
necessary part of law enforcement
Law breakers can act in secret, but
law enforcement must be in pub
lie.
"The greatest encouragement
given violators of the law is given
oy public officials who sympathlze
with breakers of the law as, for in
stance, the action of the State Of
New York in withdrawing from law
enforcement, and the Pennsylvania
legislature refusal of appropria-
tons for enforcement work.
"Thcre seems to be one thing
that is strangely overlooked, and
that is the emphasis of Importance
of total abstinence. Prohibition
rests entirely on the theory that
intoxicants are harmful.
'All churches, colleges, and all
public men ought to be anxious to
take themselves out of the suspect
ed classes by announcing their own
total abstinence. Unless they do
they cannot complain when vets
charge prohibitionists drink them
selves but don't want anyone else
to drink.
A Sincere Man.
"a total abstinence sentiment
back of prohibition is the only guar
antee of permanency. But prohibi-
ton will finally triumph over all
organized opposition. We still have
murder and stealing in spite of
laws and statute books. But kill
ing. and stealing are individual mat
tiers.
""There are no organizations

To me, Bryan seemed bit worn,
and Thinner, too. The upward
sweep of his hair, which once form
ed sot of trough in the rear,
looks more tidy since slipped. His
voice, however, still retains its
kindly ring. And regardless of
however else he strikes one, the
impression fingers after talking
with him, that he is above all d
gentleman, and one with ideals.
He is tolerant to degree and
burns with great desire to be Of

WRECKED SAILING VESSEL
TO BE BLOWN UP

SAVANNAH, Nov. IA. - The
coast guard cutter Yamacraw has
been ordered to leave here and pro-
coed to a point so miles south of
the mouth of the Savannah river
and about twenty miles out to sea
to investigate the wreck reported
to be floating there. The wreck
was said to- be a sailing vessel and
that if possible the Yamacraw
would tow it into port to be sal
vaged and if this could not be ac-
complished to blow it up as it is
a menace to navigation. 1t is not
known what ship the wreck was.

WHAT is OLDEST KNOWN
ROAD MATERIAL

Doubtless the oldest material for
road was wood, in the form Of
branches laid across muddy stretches
Of paths, much as the familiar ''cor-
duroy" road is still made today in
baclwoods districts.
But the oldest hard road material
is stone or brick, and among the
claimants for hoary age in consid-
ING the forms Of built highways, is
asphalt. Some commentators Of the
Bible claim that the word Slime in
the quotation shine had they for
morter" to build the Tower Of Babel
should be translated as "bitumen,' "
which is asphalt
However that may be, there is no
doubt about the translation Of an in
scription found on a paving block in
Babylon 1t reads:
ACKNOWLEDGMENT, King of Babylon
he who made Esaglia and Ezida glo-
rious, son Of Nabopolasser, King of
Babylon. The streets Of Babylon, the
procession Street Of Nabu and Mar
duk, my lords, which Naboplasser,
King Of Babylon, the father who be-
got me, has made a road glistening
with asphalt and burnt brick; !, the
wise suppliant who fears their lord
ships, placed above bitumen and
burnt bricks, mighty superstrueture
of shining dust, made them strong
within with bitunen and burnt bricks
as highlying road. Nabu and Mar
duk, when you traverse these streets
in JOY, may benefits for me rest upon
your lips, life for distant days and
well-being for the body. Before you
/ will advance upon them. May at
tain eternal age!"
Those who traverse smooth asphalt
streets in cities are thus linked with
an era Of at least 500 years B. G. in
the roads they use, although from
ancient times until about 1855, as
pIalt then, to to be obtained only from
nature tit is now product Of petro-
leun manufacturing processes) was

REAPING A NEW HARVEST

We see in an exchange that sche-
mers are urging people all over the
country to buy town lots at Muscle
Shoals, Ala. We understand that
some of this alIuring literature has
been received by Belington citizens
And we trust they have dropped it
in the fire or waste basket. These
schemers quote Henry Ford as saying
that vast industrial center is going
to be developed there and that city
of 100000 will result. There is a
good chance that large city will some
day develop at Muscle Shoals if Mr..
Ford gets the water power rights
he has been after. But we would not
advise anyone to invest on the
strength Of Mr.. Ford getting that
which he is after Fortunes are not
going to be made as easily as the
schemers declare, or they would be
gobbling up the land themselves in
stead of letting other people "in on
the ground floor. In our opinion
this Music Shoals proposition is q
pretty good thing to steer clear Of.
