Turin Archaeologist
Doubts Egyptian Tomb
Is King Tutankhamen' S
BY EDGAR ANSEL MOWRER

by EDUAh AINSEL NON hEFG
Especial Cable to The Atlanta Journal and
Chicago Daily News-Copyright. 1921
ROME, Feb. 27.-That the tomb
of Tutankhamen opened by Lord Car
narvon is not the Egyptian kings
tomb at all, but merely a storage
house of precious objects in the opin-
ion of Italy's greatest Psychologist,
Senior Schiaparelli, of Turin, accord,
ing to the Rome Mesa zero.
The Turin archaeologist, with
Rene Pleofouvre and Benedite be-
lieve Tutankhamens tomb to have
been destroyed by his successor Ar
mais, and that the objects found by
Carnarvon were either put there by
the jealous successor fthe dead
king, or saved from destruction by
Tutankhamen partisans.
1t is noted that the kings supposed
tomb can not compare in luxury
with the tombs of Rameses III and
Rameses TX, or Menaptah and Seti
l, although Tutankhamen's reign
probably was superior for splendor.
Schiaparelli has left Italy for
Egypt.

Street Car Passenger
And Senator Caraway
Swap Blows in Street

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2S.-Blows
We're exchanged by Senator Cara
way, of Arkansas, and another pas
senger on a Washington street car
Tuesday after the man had been
accused of jostling the senator and
using offensive language.
The senator replied with quick
,repartee and the stranger respo~ l
by leaving the car with Senator
Caraway in pursuit
In the street, the passenger, a
little fellow about forty-five, squared
off and shot a short jolt to the SEN
ator's face.
Mr.. Caraway returned the compli-
ment with his umbrella, and in the
mauliug both men lost their hats.
The senator's opponent cried
enough, whereupon Mr.. Caraway re-
turned to him his hat and the fight
was over.

ATTORNEY GENERAL
COLLECTS EVIDENCE
IN VAT WAR DEATH

Attorney General George M. Ma
pier is engaged in gathering evil
dence to be presented to the
Echols county grand jury on
March 10 against Mann Carter and
his son, Will Carter, charged with
the murder of Max Lochridge, fed
eral cattle tick inspector, on Feb.
ruary 3, and with assaulting, with
intent to murder, Roy Richie, a fed
eral inspector, who was in company
with Lochridge.
Pursuant to Governor Hardwick' s
directions, Colonel Napier will per
sonally take part in presenting the
evidence to. the grand jury and in
prosecuting the Carriers on murder
charges when they come to trial
He had asked Solicitor General Hay.
of the southern circuit, to inform
him what evidence he had gathered
and what steps he had taken, and
also was comforting with S. j.
Horne, the federal inspector in
charge of the cattle tick work in
Georgia.
The governors office received
Tuesday a letter from Sheriff w. w.
Pennington, of Echols county, in
which he resented the charge by P.
H. Bahnsen, state veterinarian, that
he was in sympathy with the Car
ters and had made no effort to ar
rest them. He asserted he and his
deputies have made and are making
every possible effort.
"It is with deep regret that I have
read in the press of the charges
made against me by DR.. Bahnsen, -
the sheriff's letter said. Although
l. most emphatically deny the
charges, it is still unpleasant to be
falsely accused in regard to the ar
rest of the Carriers. I wish to say
that I have done everything in my
power to effect the arrest, but you
must realize that it takes time, es-
pecially in a county which is sparse
Iy settled, and only 10 per cent of
the lands are in cultivation.
ct have searched the premises
twice and have followed every clue
T have heard of with a search by
myself and deputies in different
parts of the county, but so far have
failed to apprehend them.
at is needless to say that there
are five federal warrants for the ar
rest Of these men and the United
States marshal and his assistants
have been in the county and they,
too, have done their best to appre-
bend these men without avail"
While this case was receiving the
attention of the attorney general,
another cattle tick case was coming
to a head in Tallahassee, Fla, where
J. H. Jeffares, a cattle tick quaran.
tine inspector Of Grady county, is
scheduled to be tried Wednesday on
a charge of cattle stealing, which
charge he claims is based on his
seizure of some Florida cattle which
came into Grady county with ticks
thereby threatening to reinfest that
county, which is tick-free.
Jeffares asked for the attorney
general to be sent to Tallahassee to
defend him at the trial, but Governor
HardWick did not give the matter
that direction

Larger Peanut ACREAGE

JACKSON, Ca, Feb. 27.-Accord-

acreage in Butts county this season
will be largely increased. During
the 1922 season this crop was planted
here on commercial scale and the
crop generally proved satisfactory,
despite dry weather. With peanuts
now worth more than 500 per ton
and reduced acreage in prospect
in South Georgia, it is thought the
price will be good this fall.
About 1900 acres were planted to
peanuts here in 1922 and that acre
age will likely be doubled during the
coming season.
