EAGER EYES READY TO
GAZE UPON NOTED TUT

Luxor, Egypt, Feb. 11.-Outside
the tomb of Tutankhamun today ma,
ny signs show that the great moment
IS at hand when the lid of the pha-
| roaOh's huge sandstone coffin will be
raised and its heretofore inviolate Sc
cret disclosed. Howard Carter's ma
tive foremen were carrying down the
coils of rope for use with the differ
ential pulleys with which the lid is
to be hoisted, while during the morn
ing a great flat packing case arrived
containing sheet of stout glass, cut
exactly to the measurement of the
sarcophagus. When the lid is raised
the glass will be laid over the coffin
enabling visitors to gaze upon the
contents of the casket and at the
same time sheltering the body of the
pharaoh from possible damage.
Within the tomb Mr.. Carter and
his associates spent the morning shift
ting the roof of the fourth casket
which is suspended from sings close
above the sarcophagus, to the ante
chamber where it was packed up and
stacked with the roof sections o" the
other shrines which are awaiting re-
moval. The inside of this roof which
is unlike the roof of the other shrines
is barrel shaped. 1t is beautifully de-
corated with figure of king and

WATAUGA CITIZEN, DEAD

In the death of Mr.. James w. Hor-
ton which occurred at his home on
Cove Creek Tuesday night after a
few days illness with pneumonia Wa
tauga loses one of her best citizens.
He was born and reared in this

his views, and progressive in all the
things that looked to the betterment
of his beloved county.
Mr.. Horton was a soldier in the
Confederate army and had been for
many years chairman of the Pension
Board of the county, and was still
holding this position at the time of
his death. He was one of the charter
members of Snow Lodge A. F. & A.
NJ, having dimited from Watauga
Lodge 273, when Snow Lodge was
constituted. He was an authority on
Masonry, having been considered one
of the brightest and best posted Ma
sons in the county. He was District
Grand Master for a number of years
just prior to his death.
Mrs. Horton and six children sur
vive. Interment. was made yester.
day afternoon at 1 o'clock, the Ma
sonic fraternity having charge of the
funeral, Snow and Watauga Lodges
participating.
In the death of Mr.. Horton Wa
tauga county at large is grieved, as
no man had more real friends than
did he.

INROAD MADE ON FEW
REMAINING DEER

On Monday last some boys out
hunting got two deer started not
far from Boone. Hon. F. A. Linney
has some fine hounds which were
out that day, and after the animals
were running, started the dogs af-
ter them. One of them was chased
to RutherWood, where it was shot,
dressed, and even some of the veni-
son was brought to Boone it is said.
The only deer extant in this coun-
ty now are few that escaped from
the Cone park some years ago, and
all true sportsmen have been espec-
tally interested in protecting them
Last winter one was seen within a
quarter of a mile of the main bust
ness section of this town, and in
addition to very strict laws that
have been on the statute books for
years passed, additional severe pen
alties have been named as the lot of
the violator. Indeed it is better to
get into a considerable mix-up with
a two-legged animal than to bother
the little semi-tame deer that are
are attempting to get their livelihood
from among Watauga's sunny hills
1t is pretty generally known who
the perpetrators of this crime. are
and steps are being taken to bring
them to the full measure of justice
No sportsman would attempt to kill
game out of season, more especially
a doe, and it is hoped that these
'would-bes' may be caught without
any unnecessary delay.
To add to the misdemeanor, the
doe would have soon given birth to
two fawns.

w. J. BRYAN CONCRATULATES
GOVERNOR MORRISON ON
OUSTING OF MONKEY BOOK"

William Jennings Bryan joined the
army of contributors to Governor
Morrison's monkey book" cores
pondence by sending congratulations
for the action of the executive in
ousting two biology books from the
high school text book list that dealt
with evolution in a manner destrib-
ed as 'rabid'.
Mr.. Bryan's letter written from
Miami, Fla was not made public but
it predicted that the Governors OF
other states would follow the North
Carolina executive in bannit 6 what
Bryan calls the monkey books"
Since the action of the governor,
letters have flooded in upon him
congratulating or denouncing him for
throwing out the two books. Com
menting on some of the letters of
dcnunciation the governor said that
he did not propose entering into q
controversy with any one over the ex-
clusion. Of the books on biology from
the high schools by the board of ed
ucation.
But he ventured: at is laughable
TO read some of the denunciations |
am receiving from the high brows
who think it is ignorant 20 adhere
to the revealed Word of God as TO
the origin of man. In North Carolina
our love of religious freedom has al
ways been great and has kept church
and state seperate throughout history
These high brow intellectuals charge
us with religious intolerance because
in a state where we have not allowed
religious teaching to be a part OF
our school life w edo not want the
monkey book fellows teaching that
the account of creation contained in
| the Word of God is a myth.
eff we should ever decide to teach
religion in our schools | am satisfied
the population would insist on the
| Holy Bible" he added maintaining
that the teaching of the subject mat
ter in the excluded books would be
in religious course

CALIFORNIA CLIMATE
BAD ON THE MERCURY

San Francisco.-California boasts
about it's climate, and California has
lots of climate to boast about, accord
ing to the United States weather bu-
reau here, which says California has
a greater assortment of climate than
any other state and more contrasts,
The following official weather re-
ports prove that California can de-
light an Eskimo or soothe a savage
from darkest Africa.
The hottest temperature ever re-
corded in the world was in Death
Valley, June 10, 1913, when the mer
curry rose to 1874 degrees in the shade
Bodie. in Mono county, holds the
California record for the other eX-
treme with 36 degrees below zero.
While many parts of the state have
never seen snow, Alpine county had
a fall of 73 feet in the winter of
19O6-O7.
Del Norte county registered 1888
inches of rainfall in single year.
Lake county had 71.54 inches fall
in single month.
In San Bernardino county it once
rained 1911 inches in single day.
In the same county there is a section
where not a drop of rain has fallen
for more than two years.
Point Reyes on the California sea
coast, has the coolest summer in A
merica with a mean temperature OF
81 degrees.
In some sections of California, high
N her great mountains, frost can be
found every month in the year. 9th
err sections never have frost aud nc
extremes of heat, and berries fruit
and vegetables are harvested every
day of the year.
San Francisco has one of the most
equable climates in the world, the
annual mean for 40 years being Sc
degrees Farenheit. September the
Warmest month, has a mean or aver

A NOBLE SOUL
A Tribute to Ex-President Wilson

=
(By James Monroe Downum)
My thoughts now fly afar,
| see a noble man
Lying so cold and still,
Not moving in the van
AS in the former days
He bravely bore his part
To serve the world his best
With true and faithful heart.
Ideals of highest mold
Possessed his noble soul
To see a better day,
AS on the years may roll,
When peace shall fill all lands,
- The world brotherhood,
Reaching with brothers hands
Each serving others good.
When comes another one
Whose word the world will hear,
Whose fame shall further reach
In history ringing clear!
Who passed more confident
That thought for which he stoo'
Would spread to serve the world
ITO nations highest good.
To thee there is no death,
Such spirits cannot die,
Who live for others veal
Can all deaths throes defy.
Thy noble thoughts shall live
When smaller pass away,
And bring to nations far
\ fairer, brighter day.

MILES LOVE AGAIN
CONFINED In BOONE JAIL

Monday night Miles Love. alias
Miles Presnell, again reposed in the
Boone Jail, having made his escape
therefrom a few days after his ar
rest last September on the charge of
the murder of one of his children.
lie had been given a preliminary
hearing before his escape and remain
ded to Jail without the privilege of
bail
He was brought here from Wyo-
ming County, West Virginia by De-
putty sheriff George Hayes and the
town marshall, Mr.. Roby Greene.
There has been a reward out for
Love for some time, and the sher-
iff in West Virginia who had effec-
ted his capture had a copy of the
Watauga Democrat in his pocket, con
tanning the notice of reward.
Mrs. Love, wife Of the criminal
was with her husband where he
was captured and where he was
working in a logging camp 1t is re-
ported he sold their household fur
nishings for the necessary money to
buy his wife return ticket to this
place.
According to an informant of the
Democrat Mrs. Love has for many
years lived in mortal fear of her
husband, especially at such times as
he would see fit to get drunk and
bring his friends to her house with
him for their carousals. 1t is even
further reliably reported that she
had been forced to go through all
the dangers incident to liquor MAX
ing and transporting, while he was
in safety. 1t is said that Mrs. Love
has been heard to say that should
she have told anything on Miles at
the preliminary hearing last fall, she
would have now been with her mur-
dered child, for it seems that when
enraged his only lust is 10 kill.
Those most intimately associated
with him, his near acquaintances
have also been hushed by the vio-
lence of his temper. 1t is however
hoped that those who know the
truths as to his character, and the
abuses hitherto heaped upon his
family, will prepare to talk at the
next session Of .Watauga. Superior
Court next month, for Miles is un-
questionably in safe quarters now,
and no further fears are to be en-
tertained as to the results of his
designs.
