GREAT BEAUTY
IN TUT'S TOMB
Impressive Coffin of King of
Egypt Brought to View by
Removal of Partition Wall

Luxor, Egypt, Dec. 17.-All pre-
conceived ideas of Tutankhamen's gol-
den shrine were upset by the sight of
his impressive coffin, for the first time
disclosed in almost its full proportions
by the removal of the partition wall,
when the correspondent visited the
tomb today.
The first impression of this gigan-
tic receptacle for the dead, its side
respondent with decoration of blue
and gold set against the background
of brightly colored paintings on yell
low, was almost overwhelming. The
feeling was of something incredibly
bisarre-something hat seemed ut
terly to Danish the presence of death
in this receptacle of wonderful artis-
try.
One of the first details to catch the
eye was the fact that the golden lid
of the canopy does not, as one i'm
agined, from the view obtained from
the opening in the wall, slope down
from one end to the other. 1t rises
again at the other end, giving a grace
full curved effect, which is declared
by competent authority to be unique
in Egyptology. The lid is not solid,
but followed out, roofing over a space
of about four feet between the first
and second shrines.

VIOLATIONS OF FEDERAL LAWS
INCREASING RAPIDLY, REPORT
NATIONAL ATTORNEY GENERAL
Prohibition Cases Form Bulk of Dockets of Federal
Courts but Other Breaches of Laws
Becoming More Numerous

Washington, December A. Litiga-
ton over violation of federal laws is
on the increase in the United States,
according to the annual report of At
torney General Daugherty, made on
Tuesday to Congress.
In a volume replete with statistics
of the governments work in law en-
forcement, against criminals ranging
from big business to bootleggers, the
attorney general and his staff detailed
increases in prosecutions, civil as well
as criminal, running the gamut of the
Federal statutes. Increases in con-
victions also were recited in the story
of the vast work of the Department
of Justice to secure observance of the
law.
Prohibition cases formed a large
part of the Departments work, but
there were large increases also in
prosecuting violations of white slave,
tax, public land, postal, banking and
other Federal regulations. Activity
also was reported in pressing the wal
frauds cases.
Under the national prohibition act
alone, Mrs. Mabel Walker Willie
brandt, assistant attorney general in
charge of prohibition and tax cases,
reported 49,021 criminal and 4,1O9
civil cases were begun during the last
fiscal year-an increase of 1889 over
the previous year. Federal courts, she
said, were unable to keep abreast of
the number of cases brought, although
42,370 criminal and 400 civil cases
were disposed of during the year,
with 23,052 criminal and 1904 civil
cases left pending.
"Rapidity of disposition failed quite
to keep pace with the fling" said Mrs.
Willebrandt, "but with the help of ex-
ira judges provided in different dis
tricts the ~congested condition of the
dockets is slowly being remedied."

The Pleasantville press. (Pleasantville, N.J.) 1912-1929, 1923-08-29

"A story of how the title of old Hickory" came
TO he applied to Jackson was told by Capt. Will
who messed with him during the Greek war. Dur
ing the campaign the soldiers were moving rapidly
to surprise the Indians, and were without tents.
A cold March rain came on, mingled with sleet.
which lasted for several days. General Jackson
got a severe cold, but did not complain as he slept
in A muddy bottom among the half-frozen soldiers.
CAPTAIN Allen and his brother cut down a stont
hickory tree. peeled off the bark, and made a
covering for the general, who was with difficulty
persuaded to crawl under it. The next morning a
soldier seeing the tent, and not knowing what it
was. kicked It over. AS Jackson crawled from the
ruins, the soldier stood aghast. Later he told about
"Old Hickory crawling from his bark" and there
after the title stuck TO Jackson.
The Pleasantville press. (Pleasantville, N.J.) 1912-1929, 1923-08-29

eral minutes later did he inform his seconds that he
was desperately wounded. He had been shot
through the upper breast and one of his boots was
full Of blood. He was laid up a month.
. The nation wanted Jackson for president In
1924. He got the highest vote in the electoral col
lege, but not a majority, and the house of repre-.
sentatives, through a combination between Adams
and Clay, made John Quincy Adams president.
That soured Jackson and he resigned from the
senate. He began to lay his plans for the next
presidential campaign.
The prospect of becoming the first lady of the
land terrified Mrs. Jackson. She was probably the
only woman who had this glory near her who had
no ambition to attain 1t. She begged the general
to eschew politics, to return TO the Hermitage
and enjoy peace and quietude for the rest of
their lives. He promised to do so, and sincerely
endeavored to fulfill his promise, but the attacks
that were made upon him by the opposition grad
ually weakened his resolution and he was drawn
back into the fight. The day in 1923 that word
came to the Hermitage" that Andrew Jackson
had been elected president of the United States
was one of the saddest in all the life Of Mrs.
Jackson. She died a few days later. "Old Hick-
ory" went TO Washington. A few months later he
was inaugurated as president of the United States.
But it was a grief-stricken man who took the oath
of office.
Inathe old-fashioned garden of the Hermitage"
which, with its flower beds surrounded by their
little brick walls, is kept today just as it was, and
at the back of it, shaded by great magnolia trees,
we find the Jackson tomb. 1t is a little temple
ending in a dome, below which stands a p%yramida
monument On one side of this monument under
a slab lie the remains of Andrew Jackson and on
the other, under a similar slab, those of his wife.
The grave of Jackson has an inscription of but
three lines. They are:
