BY international News Service.

DUBLIN, Feb. 21.-An hours
battle between Republican irregulars
and Free State troops was fought in
the heart of Dublin today.
Two Republicans were killed and
several wounded. The Free Staters

Most of the rebels escaped.
Fighting began when the irreg-
ulars attacked the Bank of Ireland.
Free State troops were rushed to
the scene. In the meantime the
irregulars had taken shelter behind
barricades.
The violent volleys of shots that
followed threw the entire center
Of the city into panic.
Irregulars took up positions on
roof tops and fired upon passing
Free State soldiers. The latter
rushed into the buildings firing as
they ran.
Rebels entered government build
ings and started fires, but they were
extinguished by firemen before they
did serious damage.
A Gordon of Free State troops
was thrown about that section OF
the city where fighting was most
severe.

called Spanish Queen" following
a raid on her apaI tment by mem
bers Of the vice squad recently,
was placed on the jury trial docket
in Police Court today. She is to
stand charges of violating the ma

When Mrs. Hecht's apartment
was raided, Joaquin Mendez, for
mer embassy attache from Guata,
maIa, was found with her in one of
the rooms. The outgroWth of this
was a statutory charge on which
both forfeited $25 collateral in
Police Court.
The Spanish Queen" has several
times previously been slated for
trial, but her case has never come
up due to either illness on the part
of the defendant or legal points
which were presented by her attor-

lengthy argument.
At one time her lawyer tried to
prove that the police court had
no jurisdiction over her case az
conviction might mean infamous
punishment consisting of hard
labor. This motion was overruled
by Judge Mcmahon. A motion to
quash the search warrant and the
information against the defendent
received the same fate.

first to be taken before the jurv

Tutankhamen reigned from 1860
to 1850 b. c., reign marked by d
change Of national worship. This
is substantiated by excavations Of
the tomb Of Huy, viceroy of Kush
Nubial under Tutankhamen. His
reign was marked by the transi.
ton from Aten to Amen feith.
Aten was the god of the sun, and
Tutankhamen was a sun worship
