LOST FOSSIL DEPOSIT
UNCOVERED In UTAH
50-Year Search Ends as Smith
sonian Receives Collection
of Trilobites.

The hunt for fossil deposit in the
mountains of Utah, lost for so years,
has come 70 an end with the receipt
by the Smithsonian Institution of a
collection of fossil trilobites from
Frank Beckwith of Delta, Utah. One
of the pioneer geological surveys
which opened up the West a half cen.
tury and more ago discovered in the
House Range of Utah a deposit of ex-
cellently preserved fossil trilobites.
These collections are all now in the
Smithsonian Institution.
In later years, DR.. Charles D. Wal
colt. late secretary of the Smithson.
San. revisited the region and tried to
dnd more material. but never sue
ceeded in locating the spot. He had
proved that life had existed on the
earth at much earlier geological Pc
riod than had been supposed, and the
trilObites furnished his principal evil
dence. These were a shelled in verte-
brate animal, whose closest living rel
atiye is the brine shrimp now found in
great abundance in the Great Salt
Lake and the Dead Sea. The trilobites
however, though they were the dorni-
nant life of the sea several hundred

SENATOR KING SCORES AMER
ICAN RULE IN HAITI

Salt Lake City-Senator William H.
King OF Utah, addressing members of
the local club Saturday said: "Amer-
ica's imperialistic policy in invading
Haiti in 1915 and the succeeding years
Of suppression which it forced upon
the one-time republic is breaking down
the confidence the South American and
Central American nations have in the
United States.
IF our nation is to maintain that
confidence which was inspired by pro-
mitigation Of the Monroe Doctrine,
with its warning note to Eastern
Hemisphere countries, then we must
withdraw and set free Haiti and let the
ambition and dream Of every one Of
its inhabitants be realized"
Continuing, Senator King said:
'If the voice of Haiti could be heard
today, it would be more than 99 per
cent in favor Of the United States
withdrawal, but BY secret treaties and
loans with their expected future obi
cations, the United States has sealed

For many years Mr.. O'Donnell has
given his attention to works of re-
ligion and education. His first not
able contribution was a church which
he had erected at his own expense on
the site Of his birthplace. 1t is a
beautiful, solid Gothic structure.
Later on he found that the great
Jesuit missionary to Alaska, Rev. F.
Barnum, had spent eight years in learn
ing the Eskimo language, had made
a grammar and reduced to writing
legends and folklore OF the people. 1t
was impossible to publish this colos-
sal work as commercial enterprise as
it was meant only for scholars and
students Of comparative languages.
Thereupon Mr.. O'DonneIl published
this great series at his own expense,

Patrick H. O'Donnell who was one
OF the greatest lawyers in this coun-
try, eloquent and fiery orators ever
born of woman on this earth, sud
denly closed his eyes in death at the
home of his sister, Mrs. Michael
Guckien, at Burrows. Ind. Cerebral
Hemorrhage was the direct cause Of
his untimely death; at the time Of his
passing away he was almost IS years
old.
He was born in Carroll County,
Ind. of extremely poor Irish immi-
grant parents and died on his own
farm near where he was born. When
he had plenty Of time he wrote his
own obituary which runs in part as
follows:
~Patrick H. O'Donnell was born on
a farm in Carroll County, Indiana, o.
wears ago of Irish immigrant parents.
On the death Of his father he remained
at the parental post until the younger
children Of the family were well pro-
vided for. Entering Georgetown Pre-
paratory School. he made the complete
course through college and university
graduating with high honors in law
and with a reputation already made
as a powerful speaker.

works erected and harbors and ports
developed. 1t was necessary to estab-
lish earthquake observatories all over
America and to have one master OBJ
servatory to direct all the rest. The
universities at once began competition
for this master observatory. At Mr..
O'DonnelPs orders Georgetown Uni

which is today known as the O'Don-

place that the government and the
press take all their data and reports. /"
Leader Among Irish
Mr.. ODonnell was extremely active
in civic affairs, aside from his legal
work. He was a leader among the
Irish Of the city, for many years being
moving factor of the Irish Fellow
ship Club and the Ancient Order of
Hibernians. He led in the fight
against the Ku Klux Klan in Illinois
and was one Of the men who fought
hardest against the proposed new con
stitution for Illinois, measure over
whelmingly defeated BY the voters.
Mr.. O'DonnelI had gone for a visit
to the farm Of his sister, preparatory
to giving Labor Day address Mon

from his sisters farm.

type. They are fully in accord with
the policy Of the Lewis machine in
this convention and that policy is to
launch an offensive against the "Save
the Union" bloc instead of against
the coal operators.
Those sections in the union which
have fought against the starving of
100000 miners out Of the union, the
members who demand naturalization
Of the coal mining industry, complete
organization of the non-union fields
abolition Of the coal operators influ-
ence in the union, honest elections
and labor party based on the trade

enemies Of American institutions,

Fake Delegates Wanted.
But several hundred delegates, who,
have been fighting the coal operators
for three years without any help from
the Lewis machine, want to know
what has become of the 100000 van-
ished union members-and a number
Of other things.
There is such thing as being too
reasonable" even tho one has packed
convention with machine delegates
by methods so shameless that harden
ed henchmen would rather talk about
something else.

reactionary officials will create a de-
mand among the workers of Indiana
for more red and less reaction in the

Whereas, AT the same time the

Yesterday Sigman, Schachtman,
Beckerman and Vol, whose names
signify to workers everywhere the
extreme in right wing terrorism, and
selfish boss-serving at whatever cost
to the union, were joined by John L.

He Who Slapped Bethlen
Cites VOr0vsky Case

GENEVA, Jan. 26.-The trial Of
Ivan de Justh, secretary Of the Re-
publican party Of Hungary, who
slapped Premier Count Bethlen in the
face last June, in the lobby of the
league Of nations building, is in pro-
cess.
NJ. Moutet, attorney for the defend
ant, scored Bethlen, for taking this
matter to court, and for not liquidat-
ing this affair by the duel method.
The defendant testified that he had
administered the beating as q pro-
test against the contempt and snob-
ishness Of Bethlen, and to discredit
him before the world as an unfit
leader. The defense counsel asked for
acquittal Of the charge, on the ground
that the prosecution was not sincere
in demanding that De Justh be con-
victed to insure safety for the dele
gates to the convention. He cited the
case OF the assassination Of Vasiay
Vorovsky, Soviet representative, at
the Lausanne peace conference. The
assassination, Maurice Conrad, was
brought before a Swiss court and ac-
quilted.
