ANCIENT SKULL
MAY REVEAL
EDEN
Find Near GaliIee indicates
Remote Period of Primitive
Man in Palestine
BY GERSNION AGRONSKY
International News Service.

JERUSALEM, July IA prehis-
toric skull, whose discovery holds
coincidental interest with the Scopes
trial in Tennessee, today furnished
scientists with another link in the
evolution chain
The skull was discovered near
Tiberias, which lies near the Sea OF
Galilee in Syria, and for those of
literal orthodoxy may lead to the
location of what was the site of
the Garden of Eden.
While the skull resembles that
of the Neanderthal European type
of prehistoric man. scientists say
it places the time of primitive man
in Palestine at more remote
period than any previous discovery.
The skull resembles that of a
chimpanzee in the ridges over the
eyes and in the depressed forehead.

By GEORGE E. DURNO,

SWAMPSCOTT, Mass, July ID.
The Bible can never be written
into the Constitution of the United
States.
Such was the reaction today at
White Court, summer home of the
President, to the proposal of Will
liam Jennings Bryan that the
Constitution be so amended as to
prohibit the teaching of the
theory of evolution in American
schools, and to compel belief in
the first chapter of the Bible.
Follows Trial Closely.
g President Coolidge is following
closely the great legal battle now
being waged at Dayton, Tenn, be-
tween the proponents of Darwinism
and the hackers Of Genesis. His
interest focuses on the constitutional
aspects of the case almost entirely,
and he is reading avidly the daily
reports in the press bearing on the
evolution trial.
il is the Presidents conviction
that Bryan's proposal will die
"aborning." He regards the idea
as impossible. and, in fact, as a
direct assault on one of the funda-
mentals upon which the Constitu-
ton is based-that provision giving
every American fun religious free
dom.

Mrs. Catherine FennelI Ar
raigned on Charge Of TAX
ing Woman's Pocketbook

b
Mrs. Catherine Fennell, alias
Catherine Northrope, member of
an old Washington family, sat
calmly before Justice Bailey, in
Criminal Court, No. 2, today, and
heard herself accused of stealing
a pocketbook from Miss Cath
crime Keane, in st. Matthew's
Church, April 16, 1924.
At the time of her arrest on
Miss Keane's charge, the police
said that seven pocketbooks were
found in Mrs. Fennell's room at
the Gordon Hotel. Police said
she had picked them up in
churches.

Then. again. there was the af-
fair of the fur neckpiece, in Jan

piece, and was traced to Mrs. Fen
nell by Policewoman Cecilia A.
Clarke, who had watched the
actions Of the alleged church thief
for some time. The complainant
in this case was the Stinemetz fur
store, and an indictment in the
case was returned more than q
year ago.
In the past. it has always been
possible for friends to quiet the
charges, but in this instance. the
case had gone too far
So it happens that Mrs. Fennell
sits in court today, stared upon by
curious eyes, and hears the fantas-
tic tale of how she took a pocket.

Denies The barge.
According to Miss Keane, the
complaining witness, who lives at
1907 Biltmore street northwest, she
was at her prayers in the church,
and had laid the handbag on the
pew by her side.
On leaving, she missed the bag
and advertised for it, A response
came from Mrs. Clark, at the Wo-
mans Bureau, to whom Miss
Keane described the missing article
At the House of Detention, ac-
cOrding to Mrs. Clark, the accused
denied taking the pocketbook. But
Mrs. Clark had followed her from
the hurch of the Epiphany, where
various persons had complained at
the time of losing pocketbooks.
