FIND DEEPEST POINT IN THE
PACIFIC OCEAN NEAR JAPAN

The lowest known point on the
earths crust, the deepest known
trench in the ocean, lies about 145
miles southeast of Toxic. This dis
covery made recently by the Japan
csc naval survey ship Manshu, has
been announced by the Japanese ma
al authorities.
The new "deep" measures 1886
feet, or more than six miles. 1t ex-
.ceeds by 548 feet the hitherto great
est known ocean depth, the famous
Mariane trench in which the United
States naval ship Nero in 1899 found
32,08S feet off The coast of the ISL
and of Mindanao in the Philippines.
The Manshu's deep apparently lies
at the bottom of a precipitous decliv-
ity descending sharply about hun
dred miles from the southeast coast
of the main island of Japan. The
sharpness with which the ocean bed
plunges few miles from Japan is
held by scientists to be a contribut-
ing factor to the severe earthquakes
which visit that part Of the country.

THE FLOUR Famine OF 1865 IM MONTANA WAS
ACCOMPANIED BY WHOLESALE PROF1TEERNMG ;
PRICE JUMPED FROM S14 TO $11O PER SACK

I'm the early spring of 1855 the
people of southwestern Montana
n experienced one of the most in
tensely trying times since Abraham
Lincoln signed the organic act which
created the territory of Montana. 1t
was the "beef straight" period, So
called because of the fact that large
portion of the population were re-
duced to the use of beef as their sole
means of sustenance. 1t began early
in April and lasted until late in May
when the delayed wagon trains which
had been "snowed in" in the Snake
River valley during the winter, sue
ceeded in crossing the range and be-
gan rolling into Virginia City with
their welcome freight.
In their eagerness crowds lined the
highways awaiting the coming of

Leader of Minnie a
Indian Tribe Plead s
For Rites of Pagans

John Still Day, medicine
man" representing 400 pagan In
dams on the Red Lake reserva-
ton near the Minnesota-Canada
boundary line, protested against
efforts of the Indian bureau to
abolish old tribax customs when
he recently appeared before the
senate Indian affairs sub-commit-
tee during its investigation at Min
neapOlis.
Mention had been made to the sub
committee that the tribal dances
were detrimental to Indians crops
and that they interfered with the
educational work among the young
er members of the tribes.
Still Day is tall, handsome Chip
pewa fullblood. He did not wear the
garb of the tribal healer but ap-
peared in the attire of the white man
Speaking through an interpreter he
told the committee that he was not
the chief nor the great speaker, but
protested against the white mans
"efforts to take away my religion
To the statement that the pagan
Indians corn and potatoes "were
the worst in ten years because there
have been too many tribal dances, .
Still Day replied that the Indians
were not responsible for the cold
weather and too much rains.
The pagan band lives in place
isolated from the rest of the Red
Lake Indians, and its members still
indulge in the ancient tribal dances
which frequently last two or three
days.

 Mir. Hart explained the work of the club in bringing artists of na- tional and international reputation to this city and said 1t costs about S2,o00 a concert to bring these ar tists here. Before the New Britain Musical club began bringing artists to this city it was necessary to go to Hartford or New Haven to hear them, he stated.
 He also pointed out the work the Musical club is doing in developing students and giving them a chance to make public appearances, and told of the artists such as Rosa Ponselle and others who are coming , to New Britain this season.
 He said Leland Pierce is chairman of the drive committee which is en-

a girl for two years, saying that in those two years she might ordinar- fly meet a man and fall in love. Dr. Davis responded by telling the judge that If he thought that way he should not send his own daughter to college. for there might be an elig- ible young man in her home town whom she would miss If she went away. She declared that girls should not be released as long as there was single defect which could be removed, while, upon release, the placing of the unfortunate is of the utmost importance.
 Dr. Davis told the delegates that this was where they could help, in seeing that the girls got the proper care. friends and recreation.
 Dr. Davis then charged that the Connecticut institutions were not adequate, saying that when she was asked where reform work might be seen carried on properly, she rarely referred her questioners to this state This she laid to lack of proper real ization of the situation by the au- thorties, A committee of women appointed by the leading women's organizations in the state and head ed by Mrs. Mary A. Goodman of Hartford is now looking into the matter and pr. Davis said that af- ter two or three more years work they would know as much about the situation as anyone and would be in a position to recommend and secure suitable legislation, especially since women now have the power of the vote.
 After the speech a musical pro- gram was rendered by Herbert E.. Anderson on the violin and Theron w. Hart at the piano. Then came reports on the biennial convention at Los Angeles in June and the New England conference at Hartford in September. Mrs. Lucy B. Wilson, already one of the most burdened members of the federation, consent ed to work still harder and accepted the position of state chairman for the quinquennial international coun- cfI of women's clubs to be held in Washington, D. C., May 4-14, 1925. The resolutions committee, con- sisting of Mrs. Charles F, Boards ley of Plymouth, Mrs. Harvey Brain ard of Thompsonville and Mrs. R. E. Wyant of New Haven, reported a resolution of thanks to the Maple Hill Literary society, which acted as host to the 150 visiting delegates. The resolution was passed unanim- ously and the convention was ad- journed.
