NEWSPAPERS TO GO AS
FIRST-CLASS MATTER
Postmaster General New Issues Far
Reaching Order To This
Effect.

AS result of several months of in
vestigation and study by experts O.
the Postoffice department., Postmas
ter-General New has issued the frs
definite concise and complete program
that has ever been put out by the
department for the mailing, transmits
mission and delivery of newspapers
This order is most important. II
is far-reaching. 1t gives the same
expedition to newspapers as is &C.
corded to frst-class mail.
The order is the result of pains
taking effort on the part of the post
office inspectors, under the direction
of First Assistant Postmaster ener-
al Bartlett. Carefully worded and
minute instructions have been issued
to all employees engaged in handling
the mails, SO that there will be nc
misunderstanding the Importance OF
getting newspapers to the reader with
a minimum Of delay.
The essence of the order is that
newspapers shall not be mixed with
parcel post at any point in their dis
patch from the publishers office I'M
til their delivery to the addresses. Pa
pers shall be handled by themselves,
and kept in constant transit, not be-
ing sent to railway terminals to be
reworked. In other words, they are
to be handled in the same manner as
.irst-class mail.
8 An important feature of the order
IS that no publication shall be given
any lessSefficient or less expeditions
treatment than at present. That
means that publications other than
will not suffer one iota
from this progressive innovation, made
by the Post Office department.
Another striking feature of the or
der is the elimination of sacks of mail
known to the business world as "nnix-
ed mail" Sacks of mixed mail some
times contain letters, papers, and par
eel post land other times the entire
contents were treated as parcel post.
This order will prevent a recurrence
of that condition.
Another important feature of the
order is that postmasters are required
to notify publishers in each instance
when they do not hit the dispatch
which they advertise to hit; also to
notify publishers when they are send
ing to wrong addresses and to ad-
dresses Of deceased persons. Publish
ers will also be notified when they are
putting up their mail in an incorrect
manner

RITCHIE PLANS
TO CUT ELECTIONS
COSTS $35O,000
Nine Propositions Agreed Upon AT
Conference Of Men Experienced
In Conduct OF Elections.

Governor Richie is seeking to cut
the cost of elections. At a conference
between him and a group of men ex-
perienced in the conduct of elections
the following nine propositions were
agreed upon.
/. Abolish revision day in the reg
istration and set apart for revision
the last three hours OF the last day
OF the regular sitting for registration
> This, it was said, will save S32, 45O in
Baltimore city and a similar amount
in the counties.
2. Dispense with the requirement
to publish the names of judges and
clerks.
3. Publish the sample official bal
lot once, instead of twice, as now re-
quired.
4. Omit the blank spaces from bal
lots and place Constitutional amend
ments at the bottom of the columns
instead of in a separate column.
5. Instead of indorsing ballots
separately for every precinct, indorse
them by legislative districts and coun-
ties. Under the present law forms
have to be changed 500 times to print
the ballots for Baltimore city. Mr..
Ennis estimated that the saving by
this change would be $4,000 in the
city alone.
6. Instead of printing double the
number of ballots for every 100 vot-
tiers or fraction thereof, let the num-
Der be but Is per cent. in excess Of
the number of voters. This will save
about $4,000 in the city at every cleo
ton, and probably an'equal amount in
the counties.
z. Cut out the registration in 1925
and the odd years thereafter. This, it
was said, will save $125,OOO in the
city every second year. AS the coun-
ties have approximately the same
number of precincts as the city, the
biennial saving in the whole State
will be about $250,0OO.
8. Appoint judges and clerks for
two years, instead of every year, as
at present.
9. Require State central commit
tees to make nominations, where
nominations are not made by a pri-
mary, on or before the date of the
regular primary. The law now per-
mits such nominations to be made up
to within 20 days of the election, in
local contests, and this is held to be
unfair to the candidates who enter the
primaries.
This, it is supposed will result in a
saving to the State Of $35O,OOO. The
measures are non-political and simply
contemplate economics in printing and
official salaries.

PHAROAH MUMMY FOUND
INTACT IN TOMB Of TUT
Remains of Tutenkhamen Rest Safely
in Mammoth Sealed Sarcophagus
for Thirty Centuries

Luxor, Egypt-With the discovery
OF the colossal sarcophagus of Tuten-
khamen inclosed in a nest of four
wondrouS shrines, the question
whether the mortal remains of the
pharoah lie in this mOrtuary chapel
has been decided. The sarcophagus
has remained intact through 80 cen
turtles, unviolated by the sacreligious
hands of tomb robbers.
Here was definite confirmation that
for the first time in history, the I'M
violated sepulchre of a king of ancient
Egypt had been discovered.
Here, in a coffin of craven stone, Of
Workmanship rivaling the greatest
masterpieces, must undoubtedly lie, in
closed in magnificently decorated
mummy cases, the body of the king as
the priests laid him Il rest, more than
5000 years ago.
The long-sought-for treasure of an
tiquity, carved from pinkish granite,
probably Assuan stone. lies within the
fourth caSket Of blazing gOld-a casket
even more brilliant than the other
shrines enclosing the sarcOphagus, it's
doors covered with c~artouches of the
dead pharaoh surrounding a figure of
the monarch.
The sarcophagus is deliberately
carved and there is reason to believe
1t will prove TO be of even greater ar
tistic value than the pink sarcophagus
of Harmahib, or the famous alabaster
coffin of Seti l., in the Soane museum
in London. Following up Thursdays
discovery of the fourth casket the
search was proceeded with, and. in the
presence of Professor Percy E. New
berry, the noted Psychologist. and the
other members of his staff. Howard
Carter. in charge of the exploration.
unbOlted the doors Of the fourth
shrine, disclosing the sarcophagus, and
finally establishing the fact that the
last resting place of Tutankhamen.
J Owing TO the vast dimensions of the
! outer canopy, which quite dwarfed the
proportions of the sepulchral chamber,
the excavators came upon the sarco-
phagus with some surprise. 1t was
enclosed in the fourth of a nest of four
shrines, an arrangement different from
anything yet discovered. All the
shrines are profusely gilded, and the
fourth, like the preceding ones, is
abundantly decorated with cartouches
and the figure of the king.
Owing to the size of the sarcophagus
and the cramped dimensions of the
mortuary chamber, II probably will be
some time before the lid can be raised
to examine the contents, especially as
a preliminary to this would be the re-
moval, at least, of the roof of the sec
ond, third and fourth shrines.
