HUMAN SKELETON
FOUND AT DANUBE

A human skeleton was found re-

one mile northeast of Danube in
Troy township.
Mr.. Voelz and his two sons We're
at work hauling sand out of pit on
the farm when the discovery was
made. New openings were being
made at the pit to uncover dirt so as
to get the sand when the boys un-
earthed the skeleton. 1t appeared 70
be about three feet beneath the sur
face, where it had evidently lain for
many years.
Mr.. Voelz notified the sheriff's of
flee and Coroner Dirks drove out to
the pit and brought the remains to
Olivia in a grain sack. A number who
examined the remains, including the
local physicians and dentists, are of
the opinion that the skeleton IS that
of a young man, not more than twen-
ty years of age, as the second molar
teeth were not fully developed. The
height seemed to be about five feet.

TEN WAYS TO GO BROKE

The Agricultural College of Ten
nessee has suggested the following
ways for a man to go broke farming.
They are not guaranteed except for
Tennessee, but we'll bet cookie they
will work up here.
1. Grow only one crop.
2. Keep no livestock.
8. Regard chickens and q garden
as nuisances.
A. Take everything from the soil
and return nothing.
5. Don't stop gullies or grow COW
err crops-let the top soil wash away,
then you will have bottom land"
6. Don't plan your farm opera
tions. It's hard work thinging-trust
to luck.
z. Regard your woodland as you
would a coal mine; cut every tree, sell
the timber, and wear out the cleared
land by cultivating it in corn.
8. Hold fast to the idea that the
methods of farming employed by
your grandfather are good enough for
you.
9. Be independent-don't join with
your neighbors in any form of CO.
operation.
10. Mortgage your farm for ev-
cry dollar it will stand to buy things
you would have cash to buy if you
followed a good system of farming.

MEXICO BACKS
ARBITRATION

by international News Service
MEXICO CITY, Jan. 19.-News
that Secretary Of State Kellogg has
announced his willingness TO ar.
bitrate the differences with Mexico
over the land and oil laws, was
received In official circles here with
undisguised satisfaction.
While officials were disinclined
to make any comment until b
formal proposal for arbitration has
been submitted. they readily adj
mitted that President Gales has
been hopeful that the dispute
might be taken from the field Of
diplomatic exchanges and trans
ferred Into the quieter realm Of
international judicial procedure.
It is expected here that instead
of submitting the entire issue to
arbitration that a specific case viii
be selected and submitted, provid-
ing that the United States Senate
has agreed to arbitration.
It is suggested here that The
Hague tribunal should be the ar
bitrating body, and submission to
this body would require Senate ap.
prevail.
Danger of war with Mexico, which
has been lurking IN the shadows
Of the land law dispute. has virtu-
ally been dispelled.
This was generally accepted in
Washington today, following Secre-
tary of State Kellogg's announce
ment of last night, committing the
Administration to settlement Of the
Mexican dispute by arbitration.
Kellogg naid he welcomed" the
Robinson resolution, which declares
1t to be the sense OF the Senate that
the controversy should be adjusted
by peacable means.
As President Gales already is on
record in favor of the same kind of
procedure, It remained only to find
an avenue today through which the
approach to arbitration could be.
made.

ADJUSTMENTS
SHUBERT Observation-Disclosures
of Eden"

A large audience enjoyed a new
play at the opening Of the Shubert
Belasco's season last night. THE
Garden of Eden" suggests fig leaf
farce, but the farce and the physical
display are less reliable for interest
than some good acting, and the dra-
matte structure, which, II rather full
of familiar events in the world of
romance, manages one or two clever
turns of incident which seem almost
original The young woman. who IS
first dancer in a very reprehensible
resort, then the fiancee of an i'm
questionable young aristocrat, and
finally the bride of an aged prince,
has unmistakable relationships with
many heroines of sentimental fiction.
In scorn of her husband -to-be, who,
on discovery of her plebeian origin,
turns his back to the audience and
exclaims, This is terribler'-and in
especial contempt of the young
gentleman's family, the young lady,
after the manner of the sensational
heroine of various news magazines.
throws off first the heirloom Of we'd
ding laces, then her gown, and Is
checked only by the awe-inspiring
appearance on the scene of a prince
of the royal blood. The princes adj
miration for her nerve moves him to
offer her marriage. He asks no love,
but only her cooperation in cheating
those who are waiting for his for
tune. This old prince, who has no
part in the earlier interest of the
play, is really one of it's outstanding
characterizations. The speeches ring
true, and the playing of Russ Whytal
is excellent. Another name familiar
to program collectors is that of Alison
Skipworth, who develops some ire
Sistible comedy in the role of the
heroine'S foster mother.
The heroine herself, who follows
the course of conscience regardless of
advice from the worldly wise, is i'm
personated by Miss Miriam Hopkins,
who steps forward as one of the
most charming among the contenders
for hOnorS as opponents of youthful
grace and temperamental appeal. A
number of more or less subordinate
characters are well portrayed. There
is little bad acting except in the first
act, where the performers are left to
their own resources with material
that is harsh, superficial and some
times silly. 1t Is a poor start, and
the manner in which the play picks
up interest afterward is a creditable
achievement in technical craftsman
ship.
1.-The Garden of Eden" with so at
tractive a star as Miss Hopkins,
should easily please many theater
patrons.

exception In the cases Of Harbord,

A surprise was sprung by the Sen
