HORSE Is ACQUITTED ON
DRY LAW VIOLATION

DANvILLE. Va, April 1O.--A
horse was solemnly acquitted Of vio-
lating the State anti.liquor law in
the Henry County Circuit Court at
Martinsville. Against the animal
had been filed an information al.
leging that it was engaged in trans
porting liquor, and the case was
called before Judge Turner Clement.
Careful combing of the liquor
statutes by Thomas White head,
special prohibition prosecutor, failed
to reveal any inhibition on horses
transporting liquor, and after pro-
longed argument the horse was ac-
Quilted. The State law, considered
jode of the most stringent Of any
in the United States, enumerates all
kinds of vehicles, but the horse by
itself IL not included.

WATER IS
|. HELD COOLER
THAN COLD
Matter of Psychology, Says
Or. c, L. Jones, Discussing
Carbonated Water.

What is it that's cooler than it's
cold? The answer, according to DIR.
C. L. Jones, Of Mellon Institute,
Pittsburgh, Pa, is a bottle OF car
donated beverage. It's that
psychology proposition again, says
DR.. Jones. In a statement dis
cussing carbon dioxide, DR.. Jones
declares:
"A carbonated drink will pro-
duce the sensation Of being cooler
than an uncarbonated drink at
exactly the same temperature, al
though this statement Is not capa-
BILE Of direct proof"
Beside this psychological effect,
which gives bottled carbonated
beverages a peculiarly refreshing
property, and the undisputed fact
that the addition Of carbonic gas
improves taste and flavor OF bever-
ages, DIR. Jones says, 1t also renders
them more healthful.
ION account of it's purity, its non
oxidizing quality, it's inhibitive and
partial disinfecting action on certain
bacteria, and its ability to stimulate
taste sensation" DIR. Jones con-
tinues, carbon dioxide has found
application in various ways in the
food products industries. It's princi.
pal outlet in this field is, Of course,
in the manufacture Of carbonated
beverages.
while the primary reason for
carbonating beverages is to give the
public what it wants by improving
the taste of certain beverages, and
by improving the appearance and
imparting sparkle and life to them,
carbon dioxide exercises other func.
lions no less important. 1t is
recognized that carbon dioxide has
a marked stimulating effect on the
olfactary and gustatory nerves, &C.
centuating navors, and making the
senses more delicately perceptive."

ANCIENT COINS
ARE EAGERLY
SOUGHT
Tell Much Of Remote Events,
Customs, and Peoples.
Says Connoisseur.

Ancient coins, next to pottery, re-
main among the most reliable wit
nesses Of remote events, customs
and people, and for that reason are
eagerly sought by archeologists, his
torians and students Of art. Even in
this day pots of ancient money are
now and then unearthed by the plow-
share Of the husbandman or the pick
and shovel Of the excavator.
On the Roman coin, the very por-
traits Of the Roman emperors are
preserved with superscriptions and
emblems recording important events
Of their reigns, the "Vespasian" COM
memorating the conquest of Judea
being among the best known. The
Greek coins are masterpieces of ar
tistic beauty. They are Of gold and
silver and rank with precious gems
of art. The principal emblem on the
reverse side Of the Athenian coin
was the owl. 1t Is likely that the
owl represented the favor Of Minerva
and as the head Of the patron god
dess Of Athens was placed on the OBJ
VoES0 OL IA6 COIIl1 Iu4S OhO Vi SOOO
omen was engraved on the reverse.
The various coins Of Alexander the
Great, minted in both his European
and Asiatic dominions, indicate a
progress in the art of coinage, al
though his money never reached the
excellence to be seen on the money
Of Rhodes, Heraclea or Syracuse.
The coin of Heraclea is a gem Of art
and bears the helmeted head Of Pal
las most artistically rendered. while
on the reverse is stamped the image
Of Hercules. Perhaps the most beau
tiful design is one representing Her
cules in conflict with the Nemean
lion.
It was left for Syracuse, however,
to carry off the palm for beautiful
money. The mixture Of Grecian and
Egyptian elements in the Sicilians
and Syracusans resulted in an art
which revealed the characteristics Of
both civilizations. The head Of Per-
sephone, or Arethusa, found on the
early coins is Enthusiastically Egyp-
tan, and remains so for a long time,
gradually changing into the more
decidedly Greek type.

MONTANA TRIUMPHS IN
WAR ON GRASSHOPPERS

HELENA, Mont, Feb. AL.
though the cost or Montana's cam.
paign during 1923 to combat the
grasshopper menace was S125 900,
the saving of grain crops within
the State due to this campaign was
about $15,O0O,000. The campaign
was waged by the United States
Bureau of Entomology, and the re-
suits were CLEANED from a report
prepared by Stewart Lockwood, the
entomologist, who directed the war
on the pests. The peak of the
menace in Montana is past, it is
believed but it is recommended that
similar campaign must be carried
on in 1924 in that part of the State
west of the Rocky Mountains.

3 Women Use Pistols
In Family Fued;
One Wounded

WILKESBARRE, Feb. o.
Three women fought a pistol
battle on the streets Of Exter
Borough. Mrs. Theresa Lauri-
zelle, fifty-five years old, was
wounded in the shoulder. Her
daughter-in-law, Mrs. Marino
Laurizelle, and the latter's
mother, Mrs. Rhoda Marino, es-
capped injury.
Mrs. Marino Laurizelle and
her mother were on a shopping
tour. They met Mrs. Thersa
Laurizelle. The younger woman
drew a pistol and fired five
shots. Another fired several
shots also, but the police have
not determined which woman it
was.
The trouble was the result Of
a quarrel, the daughter-in-law
alleging her husband had re-
Gently been beaten by his
parents.

BREWER To BE
RETAINED AS
AGENT
Investigator Will Remain in
Service Until Alleged Bond
Implications Are Investigated.

Charles B. Brewer, whose SEN
sational charges Of Government
bond Implications have resulted in
court action and Treasury investi.
cations, is being kept in the en-
ploy of the Department Of Justice
as special agent at the behest of
President Coolidge.
Brewers dismissal was urged by
his superiors, it was learned, fol-
lowing his investigation Of alleged
bond Implications at the Bureau
of Engraving and Printing. It
was said at the White House yes.
terday, In behalf of President
Coolidge, that the Chief Executive
suggested" that he be retained
until the matter had been thor.
oughly threshed out.
The President is unable to under
stand why Brewer instituted injunc
ton proceedings in the District Su
preme Court against Attorney Gen
eral Daugherty, Secretary of the
Treasury Mellon and other high Of
ficials, in order to preserve evidence
gathered during his investigation.
1t was learned that the President
believes Brewer is entitld to hold
the evidence for submission to the
grand jury. The Chief Executive
however, is confident that the De
partment of Justice and the Treas
ury are both anxious to prosecute
the investigation to its fullest ex
tent.
Early action is expected upon the
motion Of District Attorney Peyton
Gordon. filed in the District Su.
preme Court yesterday in behalf OF
the Attorney General, the Secretary
of the Treasury and other officials.
requiring Brewer to deposit his evi'
dence in the registry Of the court.
