DR. HERMAN HILPRECHT
 DIES AT PHILA. HOME
World Famous Archcologist and Leader of Four Babyloniap Ex-
 petitions Succumbs After Illness

Philadelphia, March 20.-Dr. Her man V. Hilprecht, world famous archeologist and leader of four Uni versity Of Pennsylvania expeditions to BabyIonla, died at his home yes- terday after a brief illness. He was native of Germany but had been resident of Philadelphia for many years.
 Dr. Hilprechts death recalls his controversy with trustees of the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania in 1911 which was followed by his resigna- tion as head Of the department of assyriology, semitic philology and archaeology Although the reasons for his resignation were never di- vulgcd it was said at the time that his retirement was partly due to the long controversy among scientists concerning the authenticity of some of his discoveries. During the con- trovcrsy Dr. Hilprecht alleged that several unknown persons had en- tered his collection rooms and de faced some of his stone writings tablets and relics and so disarrang- ing the collection as to practically destroy it.
 Tho first attack on Dr. Hilprecht was made in 1905 when he returned from an expedition to the ancient sites of Babylon and Nincvah with tablets which he claimed contained an account of the Biblical story of the dclugc.
 Dr. Hiprccht was 65 years old and is survived by his widow. Fu- neral services and intermcnt will be private.

1.-THE FAST WORKEW'-LYCEuM

Imagine thatNas a favor to a friend you agreed to pose as his wife's husband that he might do a little detective work unnoticcd, and then 10 find that you had fallen in love with your supposed Witc's sister but had to keep silent because of what people might think. This is one Of the unusual situations in "The Fast Worker,., now showing at the Ly- ceum, with Reginald Denny and Laura I.aPlantein the leading roles. The story was originally taken from McCutchcon's The Husbands of Edith" and is typical George Barr McCutcheOn tale with plenty of TO- mance.s desperate love making, red blooded fighting and lots of action throughout.
 As a companion feature, there is Pal O Minc," q delightful drama of love, of domestic troubles and strife and finally of honest love once again. The man in the story is the husband of former opera singer and when he loses his money she returns to the stage to help him. Although she is striving to aid him, he becomes suspicious, then jealous of her popularity and before long their happiness is on tho rocks, all because of ahis jealousy. In the end however, he is made to realize what a MonderruI pal his wife is. Beautiful Irene Rich is the wife.
 At each performance the music on inc new organ comes in for much favorable comment. It adds to the interest in the program and the musical score is changed for not only every picture, but also for the various scenes in each reef.

ONLY $4,000 ANTELOPE
NOW SURVIVE in N. A.

Difficult as such an undertaking
may seem, careful census has been
taken of the pronghorned antelope in
North America, and the areas now
occupied by these big game animals
approximately determined. The prong
horn is the only species of antelope
native to America. Through the oc-
cupation of its territory by man it has
been eXtirpated from many of its for
mer haunts but has survived in scat
tered small herds over a very large
proportion of its original range in 16
of the western states of this country
and in Canada and Mexico. In 1922
it became evident that the time had
arrived for taking active measures
leading to the conservation of the
dwindling numbers of the antelope if
its determination were to be averted,
and accordingly census was con-
Quoted during the following two years
by field men of the biological survey
OF the United States department of
agriculture, with the cooperation of
conservation societies, state agencies,
and individuals not only in this coun-
try but also in Canada and Mexico.
The results of this census constitute
the larger part of a report just pub
lished by the department on the
Status of the Pronghorned Antelope,
1922-1924," by DR. Edward w. Nelson,
chief of the bureau of biological sur
vey, as department bulletin No. 1916.
According to the results reported by
Doctor Nelson there are now ap-
proximately 10000 pronghorn existing
in North America in a total Of ,2S6
sadly meager in comparison with the
millions once inhabiting this continent.
It has been estimated that the buffalo
herds of this country at one time num-
bered 36,000,000 animals, and in view
of the greater territory occupied by
the pronghorn, it may be considered a
conservative estimate to place its
probable original numbers at not less
than thirty to forty millions, and
probably more.
A factor favorably influencing the
conservation of the pronghorn is the
attitude of such leading conservation
organizations as the Boone and Crock
EFT club, the Permanent Wild Life
Protective fund, the American Bison
society, and the California associated
societies for the conservation of wild
life, all of which are interested in the
future Of the antelope. This factor to-
gether with the establishment of
refugees and the execution Of restock-
ing experiments will play an import
ant part in the conservation of the
antelope.
Copies of the antelope bulletin may
be obtained upon application to the
United States department of agricul-
ture, Washington, D. G.

WILLIAMS COUPLE CONTEST
FOR CUSTODY OF BOY

Jose Ysabel Morales and Gus Bre-
Eas are engaged in legal encounter
to determine which shall have the Gus
tody of ten year old boy, son of
the former and step-son of the latter.
Judge Jones came down from Flag
staff Thursday to hear the case. At
torney E. R. Byers represented Mo-
rales and Attorney C. B. Wilson was
Breuas' counsel.
The story reaches back little over
ten years to the time when Morales
married local woman and made his
home here. Two children were born
to this union. Shortly after the ar
rival of the second child, Morales dis
appeared and after waiting in vain for
several years for his return, Mrs.
Morales secured divorce and later
married Gus Brenas.
Last March Mrs. Brenas died. Re-
Gently Morales came to Williams and
demanded the custody of his son.
Brenas claimed the right to the GUS
tody of the boy and to settle the diff
ference Judge Jones was appealed to.
After hearing evidence on both
sides Thursday, the judge at the re-
quest of Brenas' counsel, adjourned
the case until Saturday afternoon
when the hearing is to be continued

OLD SHEP HAS A RIVAL
IN HERDING SHEEP

"No dogs need apply" seems to be
the popular sign which sheepmen are
putting out in the country around Ho-
sum, Washington. The embargo is
the result of the shipment into that
section of two remarkable birds, na-
tives of Venezuela, which are being
used as guards for sheep in place of
dogs. These birds are known as yam
kanikas" and resemble cranes.
They are said to be absolutely fear
less and will readily attack eagles,
coyotes, foxes or other enemies of the
flock. Washington herders claim the
birds are far superior to the sheep
dogs and are practically self-support-
ing. They seem to love the sheep and
are alert to turn any stragglers back
into the main flock. Nevada sheep
men are inclined also to experiment
with the feathered guards.-Our

NEWSPAPERS
FURNISH THE WRAPPING
PAPER FOR THE ORIENT

From the paper division of the
United States department Of COM
merce comes an interesting statement
of the extent of the foreign trade in
overissue newspapers which are be-
ing poured into the Orient by the
thousands of tons annually. There the
old newspapers are used by shop
keepers as cheap and acceptable
substitute for wrapping paper which
is said to be scarce and high-priced
in these parts.
Evidently the old saying that
Nothing is so useless as yesterdays
newspaper" needs revision, for the
Oriental has discovered what his Oc-
cidental brother has not yet learned
that it can be very useful indeed.
More than that, he is suggesting to
us an economy apparently unthought-
of by this, spendthrift nation, and per-
haps offering us valuable tap on
one way in which to help save fast
diminishing forests.
But the favor is not entirely upon
the Oriental side Of the ledger. I'm
Willingly those 26,078 tons of old
American newspapers which have al
ready gone into Asiatic ports this
year may represent a powerful force
in carrying the culture Of the western
world into the benighted east. The
missionary work which $4,000 tons,
especially if they are made up of
some of our metropolitan newspapers,
may accomplish staggers the magma
tion--if your imagination becomes
wabbly easily. Fancy the ambitions
which may stir the breast of some
young boy in Singapore or Penang or
Hongkong as he reads the exploits of
our national heroes, especially those
of the sporting fraternity, as set forth
upon the wrapping paper around the
family pork chops which he is carry
ing home! And what Polynesian flap
per will not get new ideas for more
healthful dress from seeing the pic
lures of our prize-winning bathing
beauties
But there is another side to the pic
ture. 1t is not impossible that the
head-hunter Of Borneo, if he believes
all he reads, will get the idea that
every third American is a gunman
or a bank bandit or beer baron and
that going to the expensive funeral OF
one of these deceased gentry is part
of the daily American routine. Still,
the idea may make him more content
with his own. his native land as a
safe place to live and there's compen-
sation in that.
Trade follows the flag and close be-
/ hind comes education. There seems
to be great educational possibilities in
this increasing export trade in over
issue American newspapers, but we
hope that among the 1000 tons
aforementioned there may be found
several thousand of the smaller city
papers to speak more truthfully OF
American life and American Ideals

EXPRESS COMPANIES
EARNINGS IN STATE
$1O1,9 ,995 FOR YEAR 1924

Gross earnings Of express compan-
les operating in Arizona amounted to
S101, ,995 during 1924, according to the
report given out by the Arizona tax
commission.
The figures were obtained by the
tax commission to form the basis of
taxation on express companies during
the present year. The state tax rate
on such companies is fixed by statute
at per cent of the gross earnings,
and will produce a revenue of $6119.-
70 during the present year, it was an
nounced.
The figures will be formally certi-
fled to the state treasurer on the first
Monday in November.
The gross earnings of express COM
panies, as used by the tax commission
as the basis for taxation, represents
the revenue Of the companies, less the
amounts paid to the railroads.

ARIZONA FOR ALL
ALL FOR ARIZONA

The past few days has seen con-
siderable increase in the number of
motorists calling at the office of the
Automobile club of Arizona in search
of information that would aid them
in making side trips to points Of in
terest in Arizona.
One noticeable feature is the class
of automobiles driven by the visitors,
"a Hudson coach from Miami, Florida;
Lincoln coach from Colorado; Hudson
coach from Morristown, n Y; big
Buick touring car from Springfield,
Mass; Jewett touring car from
Providence, KY; Buick touring car
with Colorado license plates; a Hup-
mobile roadster from San Francisco
Calf; an Essex from Salt Lake City,
Utah and Chevrolet sedan from
Portland, Ore, being a few taken
from Saturdays register Of visitors at
the club.
Manager Wilbur Treadwell of the
Automobile club believes that more
than fifty per cent of the automobile
visitors are using the better class
cars. He says that investigation has
convinced him that the free camp
ground idea as an attraction for tour
ist travel to stop in a community is
past, that we'll kept camp ground
with good accommodations will bring
more business to a community, if a
reasonable charge is made, as the
tourist is not looking for something
for nothing.
AS rule but little kick is made
over the three cent per gallon gaso-
line tax, the excellent condition Of
Arizona's road is often commented on
very favorably and credited to the
gas tax.
Manager Treadwell advocates a
united advertising campaign by which
Arizona instead of individual COM
munities be advertised with view of
increasing in the east in Arizona's
climate and scenery, he believes that
some central, state wide organization
like the Arizona Industrial Congress
could handle such campaign at less
cost and with more benefit to Arizona
than the present day system of each
community carrying on campaign
of it's own.
Gulf states are awakening to the
need of cooperative effort, Georgia
is reported to have raised a million
dollar fund to advertise Georgia, Cali
fornia and Florida are often cited as
examples of what united effort will
accomplish, so why not try out the
idea for Arizona.
Every county of the state has fea-
lures that would be of interest to peo-
/ pie of other states and residents of
Arizona also, if they knew of them
nature has been very lavish is dis
tributing her favors over Arizona and
each section of the state would be
sought by visitors interested in what
that region had to offer
The main thing to keep in the fore
ground is that every visitor to any
part OF Arizona is a business asset of
all Arizona.
