Washington, Oct. 12 R-The army and navy were charged today by Chairman Madden of the house appropriations committee with sQuandering millions of dollars lin a purposeless, meaningless, endless ex- perimental orgy" in technical air craft developmnt.
 Distrusts Both Branches.
 Testifying before the presidents air board, which resumed hearings after recess of several days, Mir. Madden declared technical develop ment of aviation could not longer be safely left" to the two military services if the United States was to take its place "among the countries of the world In the air."
 If credit is to be given witnesses "who have preceded me-" he assert ed the experimental and development work conducted by the army and navy since the war "has been pro- ductive of very little, If any, ad- vance" toward plan which might be accepted by congress.
 You have been told by men who should know that, with few excep- tions, no real step have been made" he said.
 Quotes Gen. Patrick.
 Citing testimony by Major General Mason M. Patrick, chief of the army air service. that 262 pursuit planes purchased by the army had been found deficient in vision require ments. Mr. Madden said he had heard nothing of a charge of crim- inal negligence, but that borders on criminal waste"

Hamlet is Set in
1926 Atmosphere

New York, Nov. 9.--Hamlet in
a tuxedo, 0phelia in a 1926 dance
frock and grave digger wearing
overalls and a derby were offered to-
night to New York first nighters at
the Booth Theater in the latest por-
trayal of Shakespeare's tragedy of the
melancholy Dane.
A representatives audience liked it.
Except for one brief incident, when
Hamlet, waiting for the ghost of his
father, was distracted by an outburst
of the very latest "Blues" from a
dance band within the palace, there
was not the slightest hint of amuse-
ment interspersed with the generous
applause.
Designed, according to the producer
to prove ''the plays the thing" the
modern settings were followed faith
fully in every detail. In the court
scenes the ladies were apparelled in
this seasons frocks, and most Of them
smoked cigarettes. Soldiers carried
the automatic rifles of the doughboy
in France and up-to-date telephones
were in evidence in some scenes.
AT no point was the idea of bur-
lesque permitted to intrude. At the
end of the first act, Basil Sydney, the
Hamlet of the play, was given an
ovation and repeated curtain calls
brought the entire cast to the foot
lights.

Montana Girl
AstOunds German
Opera Critics

Montana seems destined to provide
the world an operate star. A news
dispatch from Berlin, Germany has
just announced that musical critics Of
that capital hall say Miss Myra Mort
inner, who has lately made her musical
debut there in Beethoven hall, as one
of the finds" of the concert season.
Miss Mortimer 10 the daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Daniel Mortimer of Butte,
although the Berlin dispatch said she
hailed from Colorado.
The singer has been studying music
and concerts at Boston, Paris and Ber-
lin. Her father has been pressman on
the Butte Post and the Butte Inter-
Mountain for the last 20 years or
more, and the family is well known
in Butte.
The Berlin dispatch said that Miss
Mortimer "astounded the critics by
her handling of the German language
in the rendition Of songs by Schubert
and Wolf" while her Interpretation of
old English songs such as Drink to
Me With Thine Eyes" and German
folk songs won special admiration.
Since the news about the Montana
nightingale was included in letter
that dealt with notable current events
at the Prussian capital, evidently Miss
Mortimer has made a hit.

Miles Woman Finds
Images and Coins
Near Yellowstone

Miles City. Nov. 10.-Interested in
investigation and research work, Mrs
Tom Larner of this city believes that
she has made discovery of import.
ance to the scientific, historical and
geographical societies In what, to her,
appears to be ancient stone images OF
statutes, none of them large and some
of very clear and bsautiful design
Mrs. Larner has been engaged in ex-
ploration work for the past several
years along the Yellowstone river,
she says, and has gathered together a
large collection Of objects that she
believes possesses characteristics that
are worthy of further study and in
vestigation.
One of the images that she has
gathered she believes to be of Azctec
origin, while another is of Scandi-
navian bone carving, she believes. Mrs
Larner also has several pieces that she
thinks may be ancient bronze coins,
one of which, she says, appears to be
inlaid with silver.
Mrs. Larner says she has formed no
opinion as to when. where, how OF
by whom they were made, or how they
got there; but from the localities in
which they were found and the condi-
tons under which they we're discov-
cred in her research work, she feels
convinced that thousands Of years,
perhaps millions Of years, have elaps-
ed since they were fashioned by the
hands of some ancient inhabitants. I
