AIR CRUMBLES
FLOWERS PLACED
ON TUT CASKET
Wreath 33 Centuries Old Last
/, Tribute to Pharaoh by
Queen.

~ JHtted Press
LUXOR, Feb. IA pathetic little
wreath of flowers was crumbling into
gray. discolored dust today beside the
gold and glitter of the gorgeous num-
my case that contains the body Of
Egypt's once most pompous pharaoh,
Tutankhamen.
Those flowers were fresh and fra
grant thirty-three centuries ago when
they were placed upon the golden,
jeweled head piece of the monarch
as the final tribute, It is believed, Of
his wife, Queen Anht Mes Amen.
Scenes on the painted casket walls,
done in the wierd. unrelieved lines Of
ancient Egyptian art. tell Of the affec-
ton D. this beautiful queen for her
great lord.
Her simple flowers, until exposed to
the outer air. persisted in tribute to
the ancient king as defiant Of time
as the masses of gold and jewelry
that banked his tomb.
Coverings About Body
Preparations were continuing today
for the removal of the three delicate
and intricate layers Of coverings that
surround the body.
All so IA: seer by the scientists
itself a sight never before known by
modern mans the mummy casket,
an affair of gold and Jewels. the most
marvellous and lavish thing Of its
kind ever unearthed.
Within this. under a series Of
Ewathings, the body that once ruled
all the then known world is contained.
With breath-baited awe. with some
what OF fear that their intrusion upon
death that had brooded in the Valley
OF Kings for more than ten centuries
before Christ. the scientists tip-toed
into the tomb Tuesday and set In mo-
ton specially devised machinery that
lifted the great stone lid from the
golden couch where Tutankhamen
has remained undisturbed so long.
Shudder at Curse
There may have been some shudder-
ing thought even among the cold and
abstract men of science Of that fearful
curse of old. said to have been placed
by men of magic in a day when magic
was mighty. upon all who had affront
the pharaohs.
The golden mummy case was in the
SrOrm of the king himself.
The face. crowned with precious
stones, is believed to be an excellent
likeness of King Tut The arms are

disclosure will contribute vastly to
knowledge of ancient Egypt.

 that by reason of crop damage and of curtailed seeding the next wheat crop

 Stormy weather over the entire corn
 belt led to belief that 'shelling and ship
 ping of corn would be seriously de- iayed, and that decided falling off in the volume of corn receipts would re- suit. Tn this connection the scantiness of the contract stock of corn in Chi cago attracted special attention. Only 211 900 bushels of contract corn is on
