Find Tiger Head, Hewn
by Aztecs. in Palace

Mexico City.-The most recent ar
theological discovery made here is
the artistic stone head of a tiger, said
to have been part of the picturesque
temple of Tezcatilpoca, destroyed by
the Spanish conquerors. The tiger
head was found by workmen inside
one of the walls Of the national
palace, where President Gales has
his Office. Prof. Miguel Mena, head of
the archaeological department Of the
national museum, describes the dis
covery as follows:
"Near the presidential door of the
palace stone, blackened by time,
stood for centuries. And only now has
1t been discovered. 1t is beautiful
and highly artistic head of a tiger.
In all the priceless archaeological col
lections at the national museum of
Mexico City there is no other similar
stone figure, which makes this one
Of the utmost Importance.
'It is daring example of primitive
cubist art, which clearly shows that
the Aztecs already were highly versed
In the new-fangled artistic notions"

To Make Dome Center
of Capitol Building

Washington.-After more than half
a century of lopsided existence, i'm
provements are to be made on the cap
itol to complete the structure in a
manner which will bring the stately
dome which towers over Washington
into the center Of the building where
it belongs.
Millions of persons have looked at
the capitol and millions have gone
through it without realizing that the
great dome was not in the center
where it should be and that the build
Ing was unbalanced.
Senator Dale of Vermont, and Rep
resentative Montague of Virginia, are
engaged on campaign to have the
necessary work authorized and ap-
propriated for next session and they
have enlisted sufficient support to get
bill passed. The work will be prose-
cuted with the general public build
ing program, which calls for the ex-
penditure of $50,0O0,OO0 for depart
mental buildings.

NEW GAS TO RUN
SUPER ZEPPELIN
Aviation Officials Consider Em-'
ployment of Hydrogen.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. officials here
are following closely the experiments
of German Zeppelin builders with
new gas which they plan to substitute.
for benzine as a fuel for their super
Zeppelin, to be constructed soon.
The new fuel, described in consular
advices as carbureted hydrogen gas,
is held to be superior to other liquid
fuels because of increased economy
and efficiency and virtual elimination
Of the danger of explosion.
Another advantage is that its weight
is the same as that of atmosphere
and, therefore, no loss of weight or
balance of the airship results as the
gas Is consumed. Heretofore it has
been necessary to equip lighter-than-
air craft with compensating devices,
such as the water-recovery apparatus
on the Shenandoah and Los Angeles,
to maintain the ships weight as the
fuel was consumed. In the absence
Of such devices it is necessary to
valve out the lifting gas of the dirigi-
BILE, costly procedure.
One form of the new gas has been
found by Zeppelin officials to function
satisfactorily in the Mayback motors
with which the super-Zeppelin is to
be equipped. Only alteration of the
carburetor Is needed to adjust the
motors to the new fuel.
Produced after three years of ex-
pertinent by Zeppelin physicist, Doc
tor Lempertz, the gas, If entirely sue
cessful, is expected to change mate
rally the construction of lighter-than-
air craft, because the reduced weight
of the fuel will produce a new condi-
ton of weight bearing. The gas is.
700 times lighter than benzine, and
one cubic meter of it develops % to
80 per cent more efficiency than a
kilogram of benzine.
Zeppelin officials declare the new
framework of ship aloft and should
increase the cruising radius. The fuel
is impractical for heavier-than-air
craft, because planes could not carry
the necessary amount of gas in sew
eral large containers.
Application has been fled for pat
ent on the gas in this country.
The super-Zeppelin, to be known as
the LZ127 will be similar in size to
the Los Angeles, but simmer. 1t will
carry five Mayback motors of 40
horse power each, and will be COM
pleted late in 1927.

American Antelope Finally
Saved From Destruction

Reno, Nev-After years of effort,
coupled with federal and state pro-
lection, the Nevada branch of the
biological survey has announced that
the American antelope has been savedN
from threatened extinction. The few
herds in isolated parts of this state
are showing gratifying increase, and
from them many animals are being
sent to parks in eastern and middle
western states, and to the Grand can
yon of the Colorado.
Curiosity may or may not have
killed the cat, as tradition says it did,
but the beautiful American antelope
is one Of the most inquiring Of ami
mails and curiosity has almost caused
its elimination. The Indian hunter
hoists a colored cloth above the gray
sage or sand dunes and easily shoots
the inquisitive animal as 1t comes
close to investigate the interesting
lure. Sheep men Of the western
ranges have slaughtered thousands.

TEXAS WOMAN, Sc,
is GREAT-GRANDMA
And the Great-Grandpa Is
Only 81 Years Old.

Fort Worth, Texas.-A great-grand-
mother at fifty-six. That is the dis
tinction of Mrs. G. w. Wilson Of Fort
Worth. AID her husband is only
sixty-one.
While Mr.. and Mrs. Wilson enjoy
auto rides, shows, radio concerts, and
can do a hard days work in the field
or house whenever necessary, there
is chubby little two-year-old girl liv-
ing in a nearby county who can call
them "great-grandpa," and great
grandma"
Children, grandchildren and one
great-grandchild were among those
who made up the group of twenty-two
persons who gathered at the Wilson
home from various parts of Texas and
Oklahoma for the first family re-
union they have ever held, and Mr..
and Mrs. Wilson were the honored
hosts. Only one member of the fam
lily was absent, son who lives in Dem
ton county.
Wilson was only twenty and the
woman who is now his wife was only
fifteen when they were married forty
one years ago. Five of their nine
children are married and most of these
married young, Wilson said. His
granddaughter, Mrs. Ruth Carson, the
mother Of the only great-grandchild in
the family, married at fifteen.
Mrs. Wilson, YVES born in Dallas
county and lived in this section of the
state nearly all of her life. Wilson
came to Texas fifty-two years ago.
Back forty years ago Fort Worth
was just little town built up like
CIV, one stem up and down Main
street and the other up and down
Weatherford. / helped pave the frst
streets here" he said.
"This Is fast age, but I think it
is better age than the last one. We
didn't used to have the conveniences
that we have now. / remember one
time in rainy weather it took me
three days and nights to come from
Dallas to Fort Worth with wagon
and team. Now, rain or shine, you
can make the trip in an hour.
1--WE may have better doctors and
better medicine now," said Mrs. VIII
son, "but I believe we have more diff
ferent kinds of sickness now than we
had fifty years ago. Then, about all
you ever heard Of was chills and
fever"

Pipe Buried $50 Years
Still in Perfect State

Milford, N. H.-Workmen digging
an excavation here made curious
find when at eight feet below the sur
face an ancient wooden aqueduct was
encountered. This, when cut in two,
was found to hold running water that
poured out as fresh as any pure
spring.
The wooden pipe line must have
held a flowing stream Of water for
some $50 years, as no record of such
an aqueduct is contained here, even in
the early history of this village. The
line of logs fitted into each other have
two-inch bore. The line was prob
ably laid to supply Milford's first log
cabins with water.

YELLOW PERIL IS
 NO CAUSE ID FEAR
WlHamstOVn Speaker Sees No
 Menace in Asia

Williamstown, Mass, July 29 Ifp -Reassurance against the so-called yellow peril was voiced by Sir Fred erick Whyte at the Institute Of Poli- tics here today. Sir Frederick, who was head of the Indian legislative assembly from 1920 to 1925, spoke on the political situation in the orient
 "The Oriental awakening is a new incentive to progress for us rather than a cause for alarm In terms Of material power. If the gauntlet of challenge were thrown at our feet, the fleets of Great Britain and America would see that the issue waa decided in one way alone, while a conquest of Europe by land, aside from physical obstacles, would necessitate a degree of Oriental uni ty of which there Is no sign.
 "Whateyer unity there is, comes from the anti European feeling ex- tant in Asia, but in proportion as this feeling is replaced by a con- scious national patriotism, 1t will divide and not unite the peoples of Asia"
 The fiber of western character will prevent Asiastic dominance, Sir Frederick said. And the prestige Of | the west in the east is an Oriental tribute to the unquestionable spirit | of our race.
 "The league of nations will take the sting out of the strained rela- tions now existing between the east and west" he added, and when Europe has assimilated its spirit the Orient will be quick to fall in line with it.
 Equality of opportunity must be the watchword of our century. The league of nations can offer lts members, both east and west. ar equal opportunity, regardless ol their material powers"
