q SKELETONS OF
 EARLY INDIANS
These Are Uncovered in MediCOn
 County, Ky.

Lexington, Ky, April S.--Twenty- one skeletons of Indians, believed to be of prehistoric tribe, were brought here last night by Dr. w. b. Funkhauser, Professor S. Webb and William J. Curtis, of the University of Kentucky. The find was made in ancient graves near Mayslick, Mason County, Ky.
 Dr. Funkhauser, who is chief zo- ologist at the university. says there is no way to estimate the age in which these Indians lived. The discoveries were made in the area in which mastodon bones were found many years ago. Shell and bone orna- ments were found buried with the skeletons. These decorations are of a type never found before anywhere, Dr. Funkhauser said and are con- sidered among the most valuable relics of ancient times ever discov- cred in Kentucky.
 The graves were found in culti- vated fields at depth of about two feet. From the position of the skeletons, Dr. Funkhauser said, it is indicated that the bodies had been buried in sitting position, with their heads on their knees. Most of the graves contained two or more bodies.. The multiple graves are explained by Dr. Funk hauser by the fact that 1t was an ancient Indian custom when chief died to slay other members of his family and bury them with him. The graves indicated that this prac- tice has been carried out.
 The graves were lined with stones, and were in better state of pres erNation than the majority of graves of Indians found in Kentucky, due to what Dr. Funkhauser believes to some extent to the high elevation of the ground. Dr. Funkhauser re- ferred to the ancient race as the stone grave people,"
 In one Of the graves a necklace of bears teeth was found buried with the bodies. Dr. FunkhauseY says it will be some years before the full scope of the discoveries can be estimated. It is expected that the skeletons will be mounted at the university.

USE FOR RED PEPPER
American Chemical Society Finds It Valuable as Protector Against Fla tai Gas Fumes.

Baltimore, April S.-A practical use has been found for that property Of red pepper which produces sneezes, coughs and infiamed eyes Members of the American chemical society learned today that the erst- while iniQuitous characteristic of the pepper promises to serve as anro- lection Of human life against the dangers of death from Illuminating gas.
 Captain Frank B. Gorin, of Edge wood Arsenal, Nd, secretary of the Chemical Warfare association. dis closed the new discovery and out lined the progress of experiment.. theTeon at the arsenal.
 The tear-cough-and-sneeze produc- ing chemical Is known as capsicum and is an active constituent Of tear gas derived from capsum, the chem ioaI term for common red pepper II has been found that the chemical a volatile oil, can be introduced into gas means and set free into the air Of a room with Illuminating gas.

DOLLAR BILL IS
 MUCH TOO POPULAR
Presses Can Hardly Meet Ever
 Increasing Public Demand

Washington, April S.--The rapidly growing popularity Of the dollar bill has become a problem to treasury officials. The government is faced with the necessity of either greatly expanding the capacity of its printing plant to meet the public demand for circulation Of the unit of paper cur rency or inducing the public to be more economical in Its use.
 Just why there is such a demand for the dollar bill that it's circula- - tion has increased more than seven times since 1900 and exactly three times since 1910 is a puzzle which Assistant Secretary Dewey has start ed out 10 solve. He hopes by the study to find means obtaining a more sparing use of the bill.
 The plant of the bureau of engrav- ing and printing, built in 1914 with the expectation that it would meet the nations paper money product needs indefinitely, was forced in March to deliver 10 the United States treasury 37,S24.0OO one dollar bills to keep up with the public demand for them. To visualize the bulk of this job, the bills weighed approxi- mately 11S,472 pounds. ~-
 One of the chief difficulties is that the capacity of the plant is so pressed by the demand that the bills have to be put in circulation as green money" and fresh from the press and without opportunity tC cure so they will stand the rougl usage they get. Just now the aver. age life of the bills being put in cir. culation is only about four months although treasury officials have been endeavoring to increase the span since the war.
 The treasury has tried to meet the

 Efforts 10 restore it to circulation in any substantial volume have been fruitess. It is estimated that if 40,- 100000 silver dollars could be placed in circulation the saving in paper money would run into thousands of dollars annually.
