A two-alarm fire, which started on
the top floor of the five-story brick
structure of the National Pants Fac
tory, Sic Eighth street southeast, early
last night caused damage estimated at
approximately $4,000, attracted a crowd
Of several hundred and paralyzed
street car traffic for more than half an
hour.
The blaze, which is said to have
started in an Office in the rear of the
fifth floor, separated from an elevator
shaft by partition, gained such head
way by the time the first detachment OF
fire apparatus arrived that a second
alarm was Immediately sounded. The
flames were quickly brought under con-
troll shortly after the additional COM
panies arrived. Most of the damage
was confined to sewing machines and
other machinery used in making
trousers.
The building was originally the ole
Odd Fellows Hall and was used for en-
tertainment purposes for many years

PURCELLVILLE, Va, October 10
The largest political meetig OF the cam
paign in Loudoun County was held at
Purcellville tonight, when fully $500
persons heard DR.. John Garland Pol
lard, candidate for governor, and James
H. Price, candidate for lieutenant gov
ernor, discuss the issues OF the cam
paign.
Charles Osburn. vice chairman of the
Loudoun County Democratic committee.
introduced DR.. Pollard and Delegate
Wilbur c. Hall of Leesburg introduced
Mr.. Price. .-.,-
DR.. Pollard's. address dealt mainly
with an open letter to DR.. Brown, call
ing DR.. Brown to .desist from con-
tinual Misrepresentation of a speech he
made in 1913 attacking election laws in
Virginia and seeking to make audiences
believe that what he said Is years ago
applies to election laws now existing.
Mr.. Pollard said, AT first thought
that election laws had since been
changed, but now" he said, 1--WE are
driven to the conclusion that Dr. Brown
is indulging in inexcusable misrepre-
Sentation."
DR.. Pollard took up the statement
mace Dy brown In 3 recent ADDRESS IN
Purcellville, in which DR.. Brown said
that the State accountant has ex-
books had not been audited in the past
eight years. and DR.. Pollard read let
ter from MIR. Shirley, the highway COM
missioner. in which the latter said any
one making such q statement Is grossly
ignorant of the affairs of the State,
that the State accountants has ex-
amined accounts every year and certi-
fed to their correctness.
The main feature of Mr.. Prices ad-
dress was the short ballot. He said
that it is utterly untrue that the short
ballot was put over on the people of
Virginia, that the people decided that
they would make an experiment of
having three officials appointed by the
governor and that while he opposed
the short ballot he bows to the will of
the people and is not willing to call the
experiment failure until it has been
tried.
Both Mr. Price and DR.. Pollard en-
phasized the record of the Byrd adj
ministration and promised that 1t would
continue by the election Of the present
ticket.

PHILADELPHIA, october 1e.-An-
nouncement Of the receipt by the UNI

bronze heads of goats, said to be more
than 5000 years old, and an ancient
Babylonian boundary stone bearing an
inscription referring to King Nebuchad-
nezzar, was made today by Horace H. F.
Jayne, director of the museum.
The ancient relics came to the
museum through a bequest Of the late
Herman v. Hilprecht, who excavated
them in Bablyonia during his explora-
lions there.
Mr.. Jayne said the bronze heads
we're among the most notable works Of
art ever brought from Mesopotamia.
They we're discovered by DR.. Hilprecht
In 1900 at the site of ancient Fara and
represent the wild Asiatic goat charac-
terized by its SPIRAL ytwiSted horns.

symbols of the gods Of Assyria and the
signs of the Zodiac.
Below these symbols and signs are
many inscriptions in cuneiform writing.
beginning with very majestic and
hitherto unknown hymn to Ellil, the
chief god Of Northumberland people.
A number of scholars who have de-
ciphered this hymn have been i'm
pressed by the particular beauty of the
expression and the cadence of the COM
position and have declared it to be
equal If not superior to the Psalms"
