TO VISIT GRAVES
 OF COMRADE DEAD

Plans for holding the 1927 national convention of the American Legion in Paris are being worked out rapidly, according to John J. Wicker, Jr., of Richmond. Va, chairman of tue French convention travel committee Of the Legion. The committees ar engagements, as already made, were ofii- cially approved by the national convention at Omaha, and the com mittee was authorized to continue with necessary details.
 The convention, according to the committee, Is to be ''the occasion of great national pilgrimage to our for eign cemeteries, the last resting place of approximately 50,000 of our own comrades, and to the battlefields where they fought and died, and where hun dreds of thousands of our comrades suffered their wounds and disabilities. We believe that such a pilgrimage, year of America's entrance into the World war and the creation of the A. F. F.. in a real sense would be sec ond A. E. F. the first A. E. F. having crossed the seas in time of war to aid in the struggle against the con- mon enemy, and the second A. B. F., coming in time of peace, paying sol emn homage to our own comrade dead, and promoting international peace and good will"
 The latter part of September has been recommended by the committee as the best time for holding the con- vention. The French government has given assurances that it will place the Trocadero, the largest auditorium in Paris, with a seating capacity of 12,- oo0 at the disposal of the convention
 Participation in the trip will be linn tied to those who have been bona fide paid-up members of the Legion for both 1926 and 1927, the auxiliary and minor lineal descendants of such mem- bers. Official ships will be designated to sail from Houston, Hampton Roads, New York. Boston and Montreal. One fare railroad rates between the home and the port of embarkation have been assured. Reductions will also prob ably be given by French railroads. All Paris hotel accommodations of every class are to be held for the disposal of the Legion during the period of the convention.
 The minimum round-trip time is esti- mated at g days from the Atlantic seaboard. This will give seven days in France to cover the convention and the pilgrimage. Longer periods and various side trips may be taken.
 Savings clubs are being organized over the country so that persons de- string to make the trip may do so without financial difficulty.

CANADIAN YAKALOS 10 COM
 PETE WITH ALsAK X GALOYAK
{Fairhanks .Ne~ s-Miner. :,

While at the Government Experi- mental Farm experiments are being made to get harder breed of cattle adaptable to Northern conditions by crossing Galloway cattle with yak brought from ~ Alberta, Canadian breeders have developed 3 new live stock called 'yakalos, according to an Associated Press dispatch from Wainwright, Alberta At the Govern ment Farm MT. G. W. Gasser has six "Galoyak' to his credit. five of them half yak and one three-quarters yak. He says he is confident that their meat will be goed because. the Gallo way is rated among beef cattle for ex- cellence of meat. T-he dispatch from Alberta follows:
 "The new breed of live stock called 'yakalos' is being developed in the na- tional park at Wainwright by the crossing of buffalos with yaks.
 'Yakalos' combine the mast pro- ducing qualities of tite yak with tine foraging characteristics of the buff falo, said G. B. Rothweii, director Of the animal husbandry division of the department of agriculture. The new animals breed true to type, he said, and have proved more adaptable than 'cattalo,' evolved several years ago by crossing buffalos with domestic. cattle Cattalos 9areestarile.
 The meat of yakalos is described as almost identical with heef, aside from being finer grained. The animals are hardy, canrforage for themselves, are capable of wintering in the open, and are resistant to many Of the common diseases of domestic cattle

OFFICERS EXPLODE
MYSTERY OF FINDING
BURIED HUMAN LEG

A call to the Augusta police head
quarters Monday evening took the Of
ficers to the Cony road to investigate
the finding of a human foot and leg
which had been buried on farm prop
erty there by parties unknown to the
people. who unearthed the gruesome
remains.
The only clue as to the identity of
the two men who had come to the
farm the evening previous with a re-
quest for permission to bury dead
dog. was the recollection by one of
the tenants Of the farmhouse that
their automobile carried a sign, "25c
Taxi" The residents of the house
had become suspicious Of the circum-
stances surrounding the peculiar re-
quest, and upon yielding to their Gu
riosity uncovered the human lower
limb.
Fearing that they had stumbled upon
a trunk mystery" the police were at
once notified and an investigation was
nished them, the police located the
taxi driver who had carried the dis
membered limb to the farm and
buried it, and then the whole case
came to a speedy and simple explana
ton.
A patient In the hospital had been
forced to undergo amputation of one
lower limb, and relative of the pa
tient had taken the severed member
to dispose of and had employed a
young man and the taxi driver to carry
out the peculiar mission. The officers
satisfactorily substantiated these de-
tails, and another battling mystery was
