To Investigate Waters
of Springs in Arkansas

Washington.-A conference of lead

called together by the National Re-
search council at the request Of Sec
rotary OF the Interior Work has unani-
mously adopted resolutions urging a
thorough investigation Of the physio-
logical action and therapeutic value
Of the waters Of the Hot Springs Ma
tional park In Arkansas, 1t was an
nounced at the Department of the In
terror recently.
The proposed investigation, accord
ing to the resolutions, should be made
for the protection of the public In the
use of the mineral water Of Hot
Springs and for the information Of
the medical profession. Besides an
nouncing that the clinical and labora-
tory facilities already available or
procurable by the government would
be sufficient to conduct such an in
quiry the physicians present at the
conference appointed a special COM
mittee to outline the details Of the In
vestigation.

Escapes From Prison by
Slide on Electric Wires

. Jefferson City, Mo.-Slidlng forty
feet over slender electric wires Of an
fmprovised roller made of broom
handle, then leaping thirty feet from
the wall to the ground, Arthur Kench,
twenty-five Of New York escaped from
the Missouri penitentiary here. Guards
saw the convict on the roof Of the
shirt factory, but supposed that he
was an electrician making repairs.
The guards did not shoot as he alight-
ed on the wall because they were
afraid of hitting a guard on the
tower.
Kench came 20 the prison from Kan
sas City in April, 1922, to serve ten
years for robbery.

INSTRUMENT IS USED 70
MEASURE HEAT OF STARS
Radiometer Revelations Upset All
Former Impressions.

| Washington. - Using radiometer,
| DR.. G. G. Abbott Of the Smithsonian
| institution, has succeeded IN measur-
| Ing the heat of the stars to the hum
| dred millionth degree
The experiments, which were car
ried on at Mount Wilson, Cal, with
the aid of the great 1OO-inch reflector
there, began in July, and the results
are regarded by Smithsonian officials
here as of the highest Importance to
natural scientists.
Nine stars were observed, Rigel,
Vega, Sirius, Capella. Procyon, Aide
baran, Betelgeuse, Alphard and Her
cules representing the principal types
from the blue down to the very red
ones.
Astronomers have a very definite
impression" said a statement at the
Institution, biased on other kinds Of
studies, as to what sort OF results
might be expected from these heat
spectrum investigations. But the out
come proved a great surprise. For
Instance, Vega and Sirius are classed
together as both blue-white hydrogen
stars, with few lines showing In their
Photographic spectra and both sup
posedly nearly twice as hot as the
sun.
Judge of the establishment of the
Mount Wilson observes to find Vega
showing It's maximum spectral heat a
great way further toward the violet
than Sirius, whose maximum heat Is
not very much nearer the violet than
that of our sun. Still more remark
able is Rigel, for 1t shows two
maNima. One occurs, as expected,
quite as far toward the violet as that
of Vega. But the other, the greater
one, occurs very near that of the sun.
The new study, astronomers believe,
will give a lever to attack the difficult
task of learning the physical nature
of the stars, although 1t was said that
although the present device can meas
gree, the instrument for next years
work must be able to measure the bill
lionth of a degree better
The instrument used, known as the
Nicholas radiometer, consists of two
vanes suspended by thread of two
quartz fibers, each one-ten thou
sandth of an inch thick. When moved
by beam of light on one vane, the
torsion of the twisting thread was
communicated to a microscopic mir
ror and a beam of light was reflected
on a scale.

New York.-Because a Bronx resi-

huge monkey with an uncertain tenn
per, a long red beard, teeth like a
VOLTS and a roar like thunder, the ami
NAL has been turned over to the Bronx

1t Is red bowler, one Of the rarest
Of the monkey family. There have been
two gorillas in this country before. but
no red howlers. In its throat 1t has q

Gift From a Sailor.
This was a gift from relative who
is sailor. We always thought we
wanted monkey for pet. He said
he would get us a fine one, and he
brought the one in the box on a trip
from South America.
1T did not look to us like the kind

cause 1t was so big and had savage
teeth and gave such roars. We had to
thank him for the gift, but he has been
staying with us while the ship was In
port, and we had to have the monkey
there during that time. He left re-

Curator Ditmars thanked the zoos
benefactor and went on with some
writing. Some time after the visitor
was gone he took off the lid of the box.
He related what followed, saying:

ing, showing a big head, then a long
beard and then large but very ema-
clated body. 1t looked to me like a

Count Works Way Across

New York--If Franz Josef Ludwig
Gazzalletti hadn't tried SO hard to
keep himself from being called a

steamer Ryndam would have dubbed
him one. But somehow, 1t leaked out
that this man, who worked his way
overseas as waiter, was scion. OF
the old-time Austrian nobility. The
count made these admissions: 81.
MY grandfather was count and

ANCIENT PAPYRUS
BOOK DISCOVERED
Gospel of St. John in coptlo
Found by Explorers Search
ing Ruins Along Nile.

WdSnln2tOn.-A report on the work
OF the British School Of Archaeology In
Egypt IN connection with the excava-
lions at Qua-el-Kebir, recently made In
London by w. M. Flinders Petrie of
University college, shows that objects
covering every period from the prehis-
toric TO Coptic have been discovered
The scene Of the excavations carried
on last winter is about thirty miles
south OF Asyut. This place was the
capital OF district said to have been
important In the dark ages Of the
seventh and eleventh dynasties, when
Its princes cut vast tombs In the cliffs
OF the Nile. The main result Of the
excavations has been in clearing the
period between the sixth and eleventh
dynasties.
1T Is now found that the Syrian in
yaders, who formed the seventh and
eighth dynasties, brought with them
the 8eometric style of ornament as
well as the button badges" says the
report. I'm the geometric style the
spfrals became fret-patterns-as later
In Greece.
St. John Gospel in Pot
The figures OF men and animals
were treated In cubist fashion and re-
duced to square angles, and the fancy
ran on labyrinthe devices. There are
Indications that tne square patterns be-
long rather to the Western tribes, while
the round buttons with animal figures
come from the Euphrates. People Of
these regions poured into Egypt and
though they adopted much that they
found there, they kept up their original
styles Of ornament unaltered.
"A surprising discovery came from
pot buried in the open ground. 1t con-
tained a bundle of rags, in which was
papyrus book of the gospel of ST.
John. This is a Coptic of the earliest
style, being between that of the two
foundatio Of Biblical manuscripts,
the Vatican and Sinaitic codices.
Much of 1t is In perfect condition,
and, though 1t had been roughly doubled
up, but little Is lost. This differs from
the receipted Coptic text (Sahidic) and
will be decisive as to the nature of the
Greek text first accepted in Egypt.
Another Historical Result.
'All the work has been directed by
Mr.. Brunton, assisted by other stu
dents, and 1t Is hoped at an early date
to work at this and other sites with
large staff.
another historical result has come |
from the tomb with Aramic inscrip- |
tons that I found In the previous sea- |
son. The inscriptions have been studied |
by the only Aramic scholar in Egypt. |
NJ. Noel Giron. with photographs taken |
by the department of antiques. He has |
sent report saying there are refer
ences to Pharaoh Tirhahah and to |
Psammetichos I, and Memo, his father.
ut seems that Jewish or Syrian
family was living at Cynopolis, over
100 miles south Of Cairo, as early as
the reign Of Manasseh, eighty years
before the destruction Of the temple.
They can hardly have been alone. and
many other such families
we're seated between there and the
frontier. All OF these must have come
through the Greek camp of Tahpanhes
and this implies a familiarity with
Greek words and things in the midst OF
he age Of the prophets. Criticism VIII

about her dogs legs. She took
the matter up with MARBLES. who
suggested that 'Pekeclan Wee WI"
and her legs should be submitted
TO the examination Of a jury of
experts on legs of the ''Peke"
variety. The offer was accepted
and three veterinary surgeons were
In favor of 'sPekeclan's'' under
pinninRs, while two were opposed to
them. Then there followed a series
OF examinations by learned pro-
fessors OF veterinary medicine, but
they failed to agree.
Finally, Mrs. Evans and ''Peke-
clan" brought the matter to the
courts. "Peleclan" occupied q
prominent place in the courtroom
and listened attentiveiy to the evil
derice, but failed to heed when the
Judge urged her to go through her
PAGES. When the Judge whistled,
''Pekeclan" merely shifted with her
wrinkled little nose and seemed to
say: ''You foolish old man, don't
you know my legs are beautiful"
Maybe that's why 'tPekeclan" lost
the case.
